Abstract

Local wisdom is a learning resource that has the potential to support contextual and ethnoscience-based science learning. This research aims to map the concepts of science found in typical foods based on the Musi River and the Lebak Lebung agricultural system in South Sumatra, as well as analyze the needs of prospective teacher students for their use as a source of science learning. The research uses a qualitative descriptive approach supported by quantitative data. Qualitative data was obtained through field observations, interviews, and document analysis, while quantitative data was obtained through needs analysis of 89 prospective teacher students. The results of the study show that both contexts of local wisdom contain the concept of science including heat transfer, changes in the properties of materials due to heating, fermentation, the role of microorganisms, nutritional content, hydrological cycles, characteristics of swampland, adaptation of living things, and environmental conservation. The results of the needs analysis show that most students have sufficient knowledge in both contexts, but still need learning resources that are able to connect local knowledge with science concepts. These findings are the basis for the development of contextual ethnoscience-based science teaching materials to support meaningful learning and continuing education.

Abstract

UTOPIA is a remotely operated robotic telescope developed by Observatorium Astronomi Itera Lampung (OAIL) to support astronomy education and research. Integrated with an Android-based control system, it enables remote observations and is applied across different levels of astronomy education. This study integrates UTOPIA with GraXpert, an open-source artificial intelligence tool for astronomical image enhancement through background extraction and noise reduction. A program involving 30 senior high school students was conducted through guided celestial observations, data acquisition, and collaborative image analysis. Participants were introduced to optical telescope principles, CCD imaging, and basic astronomical data processing, while GraXpert was used to enhance nebular image quality and visualization. The effectiveness of the program was evaluated using pre-test and post-test assessments. Results show a significant increase in understanding, with the mean score rising from 10.33 to 25.10 and a normalized gain of 0.75, indicating high conceptual improvement. Questionnaire results indicate positive learning perception, with most participants reporting improved understanding of nebular objects and better comprehension of the UTOPIA system, reflected in dominant positive responses. These findings demonstrate that integrating robotic telescopes with AI-based image processing supports astronomy education and improves students’ conceptual understanding through inquiry-based activities.

Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the effectiveness of third-grade elementary school science assessment questions on animal classification in measuring students’ learning outcomes and problem-solving skills. A quantitative approach with a pre-test–post-test design was employed involving 51 third-grade students. The assessment instrument consisted of science questions covering vertebrate and invertebrate classification, amphibian characteristics, and animal habitats. Data were collected through pre-test and post-test assessments and analyzed using descriptive and quantitative methods. The results indicated that the assessment questions effectively measured learning outcomes, with N-gain scores of 0.37 (moderate) in the first class and 0.25 (low) in the second class. Problem-solving analysis revealed that the first class performed better in planning solutions and drawing conclusions, while the second class showed stronger performance in understanding problems, with comparable achievement in implementing solutions. These findings demonstrate that assessment questions aligned with learning objectives and students’ cognitive development effectively evaluate both conceptual understanding and problem-solving skills. Therefore, the developed science assessment questions are appropriate as an effective evaluation tool for elementary school science learning

Abstract

Cardiovascular disease represents a global mortality burden with suboptimal medication adherence (40-60%) after cardiac catheterization, resulting in increased complications and rehospitalization. This study aims to analyze the cost determinants and family motivation for medication adherence among patients after coronary intervention at the NTB Provincial General Hospital. This cross-sectional study involved 85 respondents using purposive sampling, with the Morisky Medication Adherence Scale, Family Support Scale, and a validated cost questionnaire as instruments. Chi-Square analysis was applied to test the association of variables with a significance level of 0.05. The results showed that the majority of respondents had high financial capacity (64.7%), substantive family motivation (62.4%), and superior adherence (64.7%). Economic capacity had a significant effect on adherence (p<0.001), with patients with high capacity showing 87.3% adherence versus 23.3% in the moderate group. Optimal family motivation resulted in 84.9% adherence compared to 31.3% in the moderate support group (p<0.001). The study concluded that financial accessibility and familial support are crucial predictors of treatment adherence, indicating the urgency of implementing inclusive financing schemes and structured family education programs to optimize long-term cardiovascular outcomes.

Abstract

Coastal science learning in Pagimana, Central Sulawesi, has not adequately connected local environmental problems with students’ thinking development and environmental awareness. This study aimed to develop and examine the expert validity of the PjBL-STEAM-IC model, in which IC denotes Innovation and Creativity, for SOLO-based thinking skills and environmental awareness in coastal schools. Using an adapted Borg and Gall research and development procedure, this article reports the needs analysis, hypothetical model design, development of instructional materials and research instruments, expert validation, and Product Revision I. Three validators evaluated the model and its supporting products; their ratings were analysed using Aiken’s V, and their written recommendations were examined descriptively. The developed model comprises six phases linking coastal environmental problems, STEAM-IC project activities, SOLO-based reasoning, and four dimensions of environmental awareness: knowledge, attitude, behaviour, and skills. All validated components were classified as very valid, with Aiken’s V coefficients ranging from 0.902 to 0.961. Expert feedback led to clearer operational syntax, stronger theoretical mapping, more explicit STEAM-IC integration, improved alignment with SOLO-based thinking and environmental awareness, and refinement of the student response questionnaire. The model and its supporting products were therefore considered sufficiently valid to proceed to subsequent classroom field testing.

Abstract

Research-based practical learning is essential in biotechnology education to develop laboratory competence and apply theoretical knowledge through scientific investigation. This study aimed to integrate phytochemical screening, antioxidant activity testing, and sperm quality analysis of Hyphaene thebaica (zuriat) fruit into a biotechnology practical and evaluate its effectiveness in improving pharmacy students' learning outcomes and laboratory competence. A mixed-methods, single-group pre-experimental pre-test–post-test design was conducted involving fifth-semester Pharmacy students at the Institute of Technology and Health Bali. The practical included phytochemical screening, antioxidant activity assessment using the DPPH method, and evaluation of sperm count, motility, morphology, and viability. Quantitative data were analyzed using paired-sample t-tests, while qualitative and observational data were analyzed descriptively. Phytochemical screening identified alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins, tannins, phenolics, steroids, triterpenoids, and terpenoids, whereas quinones were absent. The extract exhibited strong antioxidant activity (IC₅₀ = 55.49 mg/L) and improved sperm count, motility, viability, and normal morphology compared with the control group. Students' learning outcomes increased significantly from 65 ± 3.5 to 85 ± 4.2 (p = 0.001), with laboratory skills rated good to very good across all assessed domains. These findings demonstrate that research-based biotechnology practicals using zuriat fruit effectively enhance students' cognitive achievement, laboratory competence, and understanding of herbal bioactive compounds

Abstract

This study aims to identify trends in instructional models, research variables, learning materials, subject characteristics, and research outcomes in elementary science (IPA) education through a meta-analysis of 30 peer-reviewed articles published between 2015 and 2025. Articles were selected based on specific inclusion criteria and analyzed using descriptive qualitative content analysis. The findings reveal that Problem Based Learning (PBL) is the most frequently used instructional model (18 articles), consistently demonstrating effectiveness in improving student learning outcomes, critical thinking, motivation, creativity, and problem-solving skills. Other models used include Project Based Learning (6 articles), Discovery Learning (3 articles), and several others such as Inquiry-Based Learning and Teams Games Tournament. Most studies focus on cognitive variables, particularly learning outcomes and critical thinking, while affective aspects like motivation and scientific attitudes remain underexplored. Furthermore, several studies either vaguely reported or did not specify the learning materials used, indicating a gap in methodological reporting. In terms of subject characteristics, 73.30% of the studies did not mention gender composition, suggesting limited attention to student demographics. Despite these gaps, the overall analysis shows that the implementation of innovative learning models has a positive impact on elementary science education, especially in enhancing students’ academic performance. These findings highlight the importance of adopting student-centered learning approaches and improving research transparency in reporting instructional contexts and subject characteristics

Abstract

Tongga Beach is one of the tourist destinations that is frequently visited by tourists as well as local residents from neighboring districts. In addition to serving as a recreational area, the surrounding community utilizes the beach as a source of livelihood by collecting fish, shellfish, and snails for consumption. The harvesting of these marine organisms is generally carried out during specific seasons, particularly the dry season, when low tide conditions make it easier for residents to collect shellfish, snails, and other marine organisms for personal consumption or commercial purposes. This study aimed to identify the species and potential uses of gastropods found at Tongga Beach, Mboeain Village, West Rote District, Rote Ndao Regency. The research was conducted from October to December 2024 using the line transect method. A total of 17 gastropod species were identified, belonging to 6 orders, 9 families, and 13 genera. Three gastropod species were utilized by the local community as food sources, namely Nerita picea, Canarium olydium, and Canarium urceus. In addition, 14 gastropod species were utilized as ornamental materials, including Cerithium nodulosum, Rhinoclavis vertagus, Clypeomorus bifasciata, Nerita plicata, Nerita tessellata, Conomurex luhuanus, Conus shikamai, Conus ebraeus, Vexillum dactylus, Strigatella retusa, Nassarius vibex, Crassispira quadrifasciata, Cymbiola rossiniana, and Helicigona faueri

Abstract

Arabica coffee (Coffea arabica L.) is an economically important plantation crop in Indonesia, but its productivity is still relatively low. The purpose of this study was to influence Chlorella vulgaris extract as a biostimulant on in vitro callus induction using Arabica coffee leaf disc explants. The study method used a completely randomized design with six Murashige and Skoog (MS) media formulations consisting of synthetic plant growth regulator (PGR) (2,4-D and kinetin), 15% and 20% Chlorella vulgaris extract, and a combination of microalgae extract with PGR. The parameters observed included the percentage of explants with callus, color and texture, and explant contamination. The results and discussion of the media formulation significantly affected callus induction, while contamination was not significantly affected. PGR media and 15% Chlorella vulgaris extract treatment produced comparable callus formation percentages, indicating that microalgae extracts were as effective as synthetic PGRs in supporting early callus induction. Most of the calli were yellow to greenish in color with a compact texture, indicating the suitability of the callus induction stage, although further optimization is needed to obtain easily disintegrated calli for subsequent somatic embryogenesis. The conclusion shows the potential of Chlorella vulgaris extract as an environmentally friendly biostimulant for Arabica coffee tissue culture.

Abstract

The high referral ratio of BPJS outpatients at the Mataram Police Department's Primary Clinic in 2024 is a serious problem because it exceeds established standards, potentially leading to service inefficiencies. This study aims to analyze the causes of this high referral ratio through a review of the structure, process, and outcome aspects, as well as the contextual conditions at the Mataram Police Department's Primary Clinic. The research method used was a qualitative case study design. Data collection was conducted through in-depth interviews with key informants and supporting staff, observation, and document review related to the 2024 referral data. The results showed that, in terms of structure, the main causes of referrals were limited medical infrastructure, inadequate laboratory facilities, and the limited availability of certain medications. In terms of process, it was found that lack of compliance with Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and the strong desire of patients to be referred directly to hospitals were driving factors. In terms of outcome, a high rate of non-specialist referrals was still found. Contextual conditions, such as the clinic's position as a National Police health facility, also influenced referral patterns related to internal coordination. In conclusion, the high referral rate at the Mataram Police Department's Primary Clinic in 2024 was due to limited physical resources (structure) and high patient demand (process). It is recommended that primary healthcare facility standards be met and patient education on the tiered referral system strengthened to reduce referral rates
