Abstract

This narrative review examines misconceptions in elementary science learning, with emphasis on physical science, life science, and Earth-space science, and discusses their sources, diagnostic approaches, and remediation strategies. Peer-reviewed studies and scholarly reviews published mainly between 2015 and August 2026 were synthesized thematically, while selected seminal studies were used to clarify conceptual-change principles. Across the literature, recurring misconceptions include the belief that motion requires a continuing force, heat and temperature are identical, matter disappears during evaporation, plants obtain food directly from soil, electric current is consumed by bulbs, and astronomical phenomena can be explained only from everyday visual impressions. These conceptions are associated with intuitive reasoning, everyday language, oversimplified textbook representations, limited inquiry experiences, and teacher-held alternative conceptions. The literature also shows that conventional right-wrong tests are insufficient to distinguish misconceptions from lack of knowledge or guessing. Multi-tier diagnostic tests, interviews, drawings, concept maps, and confidence-based measures provide stronger evidence. Effective remediation requires making prior ideas explicit and confronting them with evidence through conceptual-change models, Predict-Observe-Explain, discrepant events, inquiry, argumentation, simulations, and contextual experiments. The review concludes that misconception diagnosis should be integrated into routine elementary science assessment and teacher education, with instruction prioritizing explanatory reasoning over factual recall

Abstract

Science laboratories play a crucial role in enhancing students' knowledge and skills through direct learning experiences. However, many educational institutions in Indonesia still rely on manual, paper-based administrative models, leading to inefficiencies such as inaccurate inventory tracking, equipment damage, and difficulties in monitoring laboratory usage. This study aims to analyze the performance of "SainsLab," an Excel-based laboratory management application designed to transition these workflows into a digital system. Employing a mixed-methods approach with an explanatory sequential design, the study evaluates the application's performance using the IT Balanced Scorecard (IT BSC) framework, which encompasses four perspectives: school contribution, user orientation, operational excellence, and future orientation. The research, conducted with 71 subjects including teachers, laboratory technicians, and students. Based on the IT BSC assessment, the application achieved an overall performance score of 72%, categorizing its performance as good category. Specifically, the application achieved 84% in school contribution, 80% in user orientation, 85% in operational excellence, and 79% in future orientation. The analysis reveals that the application successfully minimizes operational costs, improves the accuracy of inventory data, and provides a highly stable, intuitive interface for users of varying skill levels. The findings indicate that SainsLab effectively supports laboratory management and serves as a strategic, cost-effective tool for digitizing school laboratory operations

Abstract

The role of visual learning media is crucial in enhancing the education experience, helping students engage with the material, understand abstract science concepts, and improve learning achievements, especially in the topic of Plant Body Parts in science learning. However, the integration of interactive and technology-based media in classroom learning remains limited. This study aimed to develop a valid, practical, and effective Augmented Reality (AR)-based BUCARA Flipbook for fourth-grade students. The novelty of this study lies in integrating AR technology with an interactive flipbook designed to support elementary science learning through visual and contextual experiences. This research employed a Research and Development (R&D) approach using the ADDIE model and involved 29 fourth-grade students at SD Negeri Gunungpati 02 Semarang. Data were collected through observation, interviews, questionnaires, and pretest–posttest assessments, then analyzed using quantitative and qualitative methods. The results showed that the AR-based BUCARA Flipbook was categorized as very feasible with a validation score of 95% and received highly positive responses from teachers and students. The paired-sample t-test indicated a significant difference between pretest and posttest scores (Sig. 2-tailed = 0.000 < 0.05). In addition, the N-Gain score of 0.7374 indicated a great improvement in students' learning outcomes. In conclusion, the AR-based BUCARA Flipbook is an innovative and effective learning medium for improving elementary students' IPAS learning outcomes.

Abstract

The increasing demand for sustainable electricity generation highlights the importance of efficient wind power optimization, particularly in island regions with variable wind resources such as Ambon City, Indonesia. This study proposes an intelligent optimization framework based on the Queen Honey Bee Migration (QHBM) algorithm to improve wind power generation performance. A simulation model of a grid-connected wind energy conversion system was developed, integrating aerodynamic turbine modeling, generator dynamics, and power conversion stages. The optimization process aims to determine optimal operating conditions that maintain the turbine at an optimal tip speed ratio (λ) by adjusting controllable operational parameters, including blade pitch angle (β) and generator operating conditions. The proposed QHBM approach is evaluated using representative wind speed profiles ranging from 6–14 m/s derived from seasonal coastal wind conditions in Ambon. For benchmarking purposes, the algorithm performance is compared with Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) under identical simulation settings. Results show that QHBM achieves higher power extraction performance, with an average improvement of 15.90% at a representative wind speed of 10 m/s. Statistical evaluation across 30 simulation runs indicates that QHBM also exhibits greater robustness, with significantly lower output variability. Furthermore, the algorithm achieves MPPT tracking efficiency of up to 96.80% under dynamic wind conditions. These results demonstrate that the migration-based search mechanism of QHBM enhances the ability to maintain optimal turbine operating conditions, leading to improved energy yield and operational stability for wind power systems in island environments.

Abstract

Tukad Sumaga tangerine (Citrus reticulata) is a local citrus cultivar with potential as a horticultural genetic resource; however, its morphological characteristics and volatile chemical profile require systematic documentation. This study aimed to characterize the morphological traits and fruit quality of Tukad Sumaga tangerine and identify volatile compounds in its leaf extract using gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Morphological characterization was conducted based on citrus descriptors, covering roots, stems, branching patterns, leaves, flowers, fruits, and seeds. Fruit quality was assessed based on total soluble solids (TSS), while leaf samples were extracted using 70% ethanol through maceration and analyzed by GC-MS. The plants exhibited a woody taproot system, upright cylindrical stem, sympodial branching with a spreading habit, ovate to elliptic glabrous leaves, actinomorphic white flowers, and ovoid to pyriform fruits with relatively rough peel surfaces. Fruit TSS reached 16 °Brix, with three to five seeds per fruit. GC-MS identified 15 compounds with similarity indices of 95–99%, including 3-hexanone, 2-hexanone, 3-hexanol, 2-hexanol, linalool, bicycloelemene, β-elemene, trans-β-caryophyllene, germacrene-D, and bicyclogermacrene. These findings provide baseline information for identification, conservation, and further investigation of Tukad Sumaga tangerine as a local citrus genetic resource

Abstract

The poultry feed industry in Belu Regency faces the challenge of seasonal corn availability, which has the potential to disrupt production continuity. This research aims to design an optimal corn procurement system thru a dynamic system modelling approach. The methodology includes stakeholder data collection, the creation of Causal Loop Diagrams and Stock and Flow Diagrams using Vensim PLE, as well as model validation thru MAPE testing, face validation, and sensitivity analysis. The verified model was then simulated in three procurement scenarios: involving farmers and distributors, the implementation of the Government Purchase Price (HPP) with BUMDES/Cooperative institutions, and mass procurement each harvest season. The simulation results show that the HPP Scenario yields the lowest total cost of Rp25.74 billion, stabilizes prices and supply, and minimizes the risk of overstock and raw material damage. In contrast, the bulk procurement scenario carries a high risk of excessive storage costs, while the basic model results in more expensive fluctuating costs. In conclusion, the intervention of government benchmark pricing policies and the strengthening of local storage institutions are the most effective strategies to balance industrial supply and demand. This scenario is recommended as a strategic blueprint to ensure production sustainability and operational cost efficiency

Abstract

North Lombok Regency is an emerging center of moringa cultivation in West Nusa Tenggara Province, where dryland agroecology dominates, yet its agribusiness remains suboptimal across the four sustainability dimensions. This study analyzed the sustainability status of moringa agribusiness, identified leverage attributes, and formulated development strategies through an integrated subsystem approach. Data were gathered from 48 respondents, comprising 40 moringa farmers in three sample villages (Gondang, Salut, and Akar-akar) and 8 key informants (extension officers, academics, small enterprises, and local government), using structured surveys with a 0-3 Likert scale, in-depth interviews, and field observation from October 2025 to February 2026. Multiaspect Sustainability Analysis (MSA) was run in Exsimpro software on four dimensions and five agribusiness subsystems, followed by leverage analysis and SMART-based GAP analysis. Moringa agribusiness was classified as Less Sustainable, with a composite index of 49.86. The environmental dimension scored highest (58.50), followed by social (50.00), institutional (46.60), and economic (44.33). Nineteen sensitive leverage indicators were identified, dominated by production and institutional attributes. Priority strategies covered seedling nurseries, Good Agricultural Practices dissemination, certified processing units, a moringa cooperative, and local regulation.

Abstract

Invertebrate Systematics learning requires physical specimens, as digital media often fail to capture complete morphological traits. Addressing this limitation, this study aims to explore and characterize Bivalve and Gastropod shells from the Gadon coast to evaluate their feasibility as dry learning specimens. This evaluation employed a qualitative, exploratory design, utilizing purposive sampling to assess morphotype feasibility based on four indicators: structural integrity, diagnostic visibility, handling safety, and taxonomic authenticity. The assessment identified 22 species (15 Bivalves and 7 Gastropods) with varying feasibility levels. The feasibility variations demonstrated that thick-shelled specimens safely supported direct tactile observation, whereas spiny morphotypes required transparent resin casting to prevent injury. These findings explicitly present a novel framework for transforming neglected local coastal resources into standardized taxonomic media, effectively overcoming the reliance on scarce museum collections. By integrating conchological characterization with pedagogical safety standards, this research provides biology educators with a practical, replicable protocol to independently develop authentic and safe learning materials
