Abstract

This research aims to explore the form of local wisdom that can be integrated in Biology learning at the high school level and analyze the challenges and opportunities for its implementation within the management of the Biology Subject Teacher Conference (Musyawarah Guru Mata Pelajaran/MGMP) of the Senior High School of Central Java Province, Indonesia. The approach used is qualitative with exploratory methods and case studies, involving interviews, Focus Group Discussions, observations, and document analysis. The subject of the study is MGMP Biology administrators who are experienced in the development of locally-based learning. The results of the study show that local wisdom such as nyadran, ngapem traditions, herbal medicine, medicinal plant utilization, and ecosystem observation have been successfully integrated into Biology learning and have a positive impact on students' cognitive abilities, affective attitudes, and psychomotor skills. However, there are several obstacles, such as limited teaching materials, lack of teacher training, lack of collaboration with the community, and limited time and curriculum flexibility. Therefore, collaboration is needed between MGMP, schools, local governments, and universities to develop contextual teaching tools, provide teacher training, and design policies that support Biology learning based on local wisdom values to be more relevant and meaningful for students.

Abstract

Basil microgreens are gaining attention as a potential functional food due to their nutritional value and naturally occurring bioactive compounds. Nevertheless, information regarding how these bioactive characteristics vary across different growth stages, particularly when basil is cultivated using local wisdom-based horticultural practices, is still limited. This study evaluated the total phenolic content and antioxidant activity of basil (Ocimum basilicum L.) harvested at three developmental stages: microgreens at 10 and 14 days after germination and mature plants at 30 days. The plants were cultivated using locally sourced materials, including rice husk, household organic compost, and rice washing water. Total phenolic content was assessed using the Folin–Ciocalteu method, whereas antioxidant activity was determined through the DPPH assay. Descriptive analysis revealed a gradual increase in total phenolic content, from 0.960 ± 0.146 mg GAE g⁻¹ extract at day 10 to 1.056 ± 0.061 mg GAE g⁻¹ extract at day 14 and 1.170 ± 0.010 mg GAE g⁻¹ extract at day 30. A comparable pattern was observed for antioxidant activity, which increased from 63.659 ± 0.621% at day 10 to 66.634 ± 0.414% at day 14 and reached 72.585 ± 0.276% at day 30. Overall, the descriptive findings indicate that the later developmental stage of basil was accompanied by higher phenolic content and antioxidant activity under the cultivation conditions applied in this study.
