Abstract

The diversity of plant species found in the Temedak customary forest is relatively high but residents should not use it freely. Residents are prohibited from cutting or taking wood from the forest, they can only take fruit, rattan and bamboo for their own consumption and must have the permission of local traditional leaders. The higher the diversity of plants found in the Temedak customary forest, the higher the threat from outside. This is evidenced by the theft of wood, bamboo and other plants in the Temedak customary forest carried out by irresponsible people. For this reason, conservation attitude profile data is needed to identify categories of each indicator of students' conservation attitudes in protecting and overcoming surrounding biodiversity problems. This research uses quantitative descriptive method. Research participants included housewives, village shamans, local or community leaders. The instruments used are in the form of field notes of interview guidelines and conservation attitude questionnaires. The questionnaire was in the form of 38 statements tested to XI MIPA SMA students consisting of 40 respondents. Based on the results of the study, it was found that the Temedak customary forest has endemic plant species, namely pacat wood (Harpullia arborea) and carrion flowers namely Amorphophallus gigas. There are 57 types of plants that generally used by the people of Keluru Village such as foodstuffs, buildings, medicins, wicker, local technology and art, as well as for the benefit or complement of traditional ceremonies. The results of obtaining student conservation attitudes from 40 respondents showed differences in each indicator.

Abstract

Critical study of Islamic Education Neuroscience is still not sufficiently carried out in accounting for its knowledge, in order to confirm and fill in gaps in its scientific development. The purpose of this study is to examine the various scientific varieties of Islamic Education Neuroscience using the epistemology of Islamic Education, in order to find, fill, and develop their scientific potential, also from the perspective of developing hybridization of other Islamic Education scholarships. The method used in this study uses a qualitative type of literature according to Creswell: 2015, meaning that it is processed from various kinds of analytical theory from various sources of literature. The results of the study show that Islamic Education Neuroscience in epistemology also refers to Islamic law. Epistemologically, Irfani refers to the background of the scientific dichotomy between neuroscience, education, and Islam. Epistemologically, Burhani refers to empirical facts about the importance of collaboration between Islamic educators and neurologists in designing curricula and learning that optimizes students' brains in achieving Islamic education goals. Referring to the hybridization of other disciplines such as anthropology and psychology of Islamic education, this scientific development can further deepen the derivatives and clusters knowledge and more adapted to the needs of students.

Abstract

Laboratory activities are essential and meaningful in science learning, especially biology. However, students often have no sufficient understanding of what is being practiced, beside they do not use their sklills to solve problems in the field of biology. Scientific argumentation is one of the skills that a prospective science teacher needs to develop and needs to be trained so that prospective teachers have experience and skills to apply when they become teachers later. The scientific argumentation skills in laboratory activities needs to be trained to provide training to students to use the results of laboratory activity to answer problems in the field of biology. This study aims to apply inquiry-oriented laboratory activities that focus on scientific argumentation in laboratory courses and to analyze the quality of scientific arguments of prospective biology teacher students during laboratory activities. The method used in this study is mixed methods research type exploratoryy which combines qualitative and quantitative approaches with complementarity. The research subject is a prospective student of a 5th semester biology teacher who takes microbiology courses. The results showed that the application of scientific argumentation in laboratory activity was carried out in 3 stages, namely initial discussion, experiment, observation and final discussion after experiment. The results of the analysis of the quality of scientific argumentation show that the argumentation skills of some students is at the middle level. The conclusion of this laboratory activity shows that students' scientific argumentation skills can develop well if they have the opportunity to discuss critically by using experimental data and their knowledge obtained from literature studies.

Abstract

Within 15 years, the population of Macaca fascicularis has declined rapidly. In early 2022, the IUCN Red List classified them as “Endangered”, though they were considered a species of “Least Concern” in 2008. Land alteration, illegal hunting, and human-macaque conflict often halt long-tailed macaque conservation efforts. Through the Primatology course, anthropology students are taught the importance of macaque conservation and its complications. This preliminary study aims to reveal anthropology students’ knowledge regarding the long-tailed macaque’s status quo and its conservation efforts, pre- and post- their enrolment in the course. Employing a descriptive qualitative approach, this study conducted in-depth interviews with 10 consenting informants—active undergraduate anthropology students. After the transcription process, the data was analyzed by dividing it into multiple subchapters and reviewed with existing literature. More than half of the informants’ knowledge about Macaca fascicularis and primates, in general, is quite satisfactory, though they are still unaware of their current conservation status. According to the informants, cultural and religious factors are closely related to long-tailed macaque conservation, shown in Balinese Hindu temples, Javanese wayang, and topeng monyet. The study concluded that primatology is important because it raises awareness about human’s closest relatives, their ecological significance, and their conservation measures. Adoption or adaptation of the ethnoprimatological framework in biology education as a means of sociocultural exploration and primate conservation is highly recommended. Further research on ethnoprimatology in Indonesia is much needed since Indonesia has many cultural values that might assure the people about contemporary conservation efforts
