Abstract

Natural Sciences (Science) has a significant role in improving students' ability to understand various natural events around them, including in the context of junior high school science material. This study aims to explore the process of making traditional cooling powder as a source of science learning (IPA) based on ethnoscience for junior high school students. The research was conducted in Kandangmas Village, Kudus, using a qualitative descriptive method. The main source was a traditional midwife with expertise in creating cooling powder from key ingredients such as rice, turmeric, and aromatic ginger (kencur). The stages include soaking, grinding, mixing, shaping, and drying. This study links the process to science concepts, such as changes in the state of matter, frictional force, pressure, density, and heat transfer. The results indicate that integrating local wisdom with scientific concepts can enhance students’ understanding of science through cultural context. This approach also strengthens the preservation of local cultural heritage while fostering students’ love for their culture and national identity. Utilizing ethnoscience in education provides meaningful, relevant, and contextual learning experiences. Therefore, a culturally-based science learning approach can offer innovative solutions to improve student engagement and preserve local knowledge amidst globalization challenges.

Abstract

This research was initiated because student learning outcomes were not yet optimal in science and science lessons on Plants, the Source of Life on Earth, one of the important materials in science and science subjects in elementary schools. This material contains basic concepts about the role of plants in ecosystems and human life. However, students often have difficulty understanding this material because of the limited interactive learning methods. The question card-based scramble method is proposed as a learning approach to improve student learning outcomes. This method involves using question cards containing queries or information that students need to rearrange according to the correct concept. This research aimed to determine the effect of the question card-based scramble method on the materials of Plants, Sources of Life on Earth, and class IV at SD Inpres Tounwawan. This research uses a pre-experimental quantitative approach with a one-group pretest-posttest design. In this design, one group of subjects is given a pretest to determine the condition before treatment, followed by a posttest to measure changes after the treatment is given. Based on the data that has been collected from the results of data analysis on student test results in the pretest, it is still relatively low because they have not met the minimum completion criteria score, namely 65. Of the total 20 students, only 1 student meets the minimum completeness criteria. Based on the posttest results of class IV students, all of them have passed the minimum completion criteria score and reached 83%. Based on the T-test table above, the sig value can be explained. (2-tailed) 0.000 < 0.05, then there is an influence of the scramble method on learning outcomes for science material.

Abstract

The siamang (Symphalangus syndactylus), an endemic primate of Indonesia, is critically endangered due to hunting and habitat destruction and is now predominantly found in conservation areas. This study aims to analyze the feeding behavior and food preferences of siamangs in the zoo, evaluate the suitability of the ex-situ diet composition compared to their natural diet, and assess its contribution to biology education. The research methods included 480 hours of feeding behaviour observation using scan sampling, descriptive data analysis, and Pearson correlation tests. The results indicate that the siamang's diet in zoos is dominated by fruit (53.88% for males and 56.38% for females), followed by leaves and supplementary foods such as tubers and biscuits. The dietary composition is similar to studies conducted in their natural habitat, although the variety of zoo food is more limited. Adjustments to the feeding menu, such as hanging food at elevated locations and increasing the variety of local fruits, could support the siamangs' natural feeding behaviours. In conclusion, the feeding patterns of siamangs in zoos largely align with their natural behaviour as frugivores, although improvements in feeding methods and dietary variety are needed. The implications of this study emphasize the importance of aligning ex-situ conditions with natural habitats to support animal welfare and conservation programs while also strengthening the role of zoos as centres for education and biodiversity preservation.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the implementation of process standards in the 2013 Curriculum in Biology learning at the senior high school level in Kuningan Regency. This research employs a qualitative descriptive approach with a purposive sampling technique, involving six schools with one Biology teacher representing each school as respondents. Data were collected through observations, interviews, documentation, and questionnaires. The findings indicate that most schools have developed lesson plans (RPP) following Circular Letter No. 14 of 2019, yet the actual implementation in the learning process does not fully align with the initial planning. The scientific approach has not been optimally applied, particularly in questioning and developing students' critical thinking skills. The primary challenges faced by teachers include limited learning media, difficulties in implementing scientific-based methods, and low student engagement in online learning. Additionally, the introductory and closing activities need improvement, particularly in terms of student motivation, reflection, and feedback. Therefore, strengthening scientific-based learning strategies, utilizing technology more effectively, and providing teacher training are essential to enhancing the effectiveness of Biology learning under the 2013 Curriculum

Abstract

Ecosystem degradation and biodiversity loss in Indonesia are often driven by a lack of public awareness regarding conservation. One species significantly affected is the long-tailed macaque (Macaca fascicularis), whose population is threatened by habitat changes and human interactions. This study aims to compare the conservation awareness of communities in Babakan Subdistrict (Plangon), Cirebon, and Purwasari Village, Kuningan, to support conservation education integration into Biology learning. A quantitative descriptive method with a survey technique was used, collecting data through validated and reliable questionnaires. The respondents consisted of 40 individuals from each research location. Data analysis was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test to examine differences in conservation understanding between the two communities. The findings revealed significant differences, with the Babakan Subdistrict (Plangon) community exhibiting a higher level of conservation awareness than the Purwasari Village community. This difference is likely influenced by Plangon's role as an educational tourism site, which indirectly enhances conservation awareness. The study concludes that conservation understanding can be improved through educational programs integrated into Biology learning and community activities. Therefore, it is recommended to implement more intensive and collaborative conservation education programs at the community, school, and local government levels to enhance environmental awareness

Abstract

Blood glucose levels that remain high over a prolonged period can increase the risk of diseases such as diabetes. Astaxanthin and chitosan from whiteleg shrimp shells and flavonoids from soursop leaves have the potential to lower blood sugar by enhancing insulin sensitivity and inhibiting glucose absorption. This study aimed to assess the potential of shrimp shell extract (SSE) and soursop leaf extract (SLE) as antidiabetic agents in mice. A completely randomized design (CRD) experiment was conducted using 24 male mice (body weight 20-30 g, aged 3-4 months). Twenty mice were induced with hyperglycemia using alloxan at 150 mg/kg body weight, while four mice served as the control. Mice were divided into 6 groups (4 mice each): K1 (control), K2 (Alloxan induction), K3 (SSE 37.5 mg/kg BW), K4 (SSE 42.5 mg/kg BW), K5 (SLE 350 mg/kg BW), K6 (SLE 450 mg/kg BW). Treatments were administered for 14 days, and blood glucose levels were measured on Day 0 and Day 14 using a glucometer strip test. Results showed the highest blood glucose reduction in group K4 (83.81%). Normality and homogeneity tests indicated the data were normal and homogeneous (P>0.05). One-way ANOVA analysis (Fhit α=0.01 > Ftab, 9.53 > 4.25, P<0.01) revealed that SSE and SLE had a very significant effect as antidiabetic agents in lowering mice blood glucose levels. Duncan's post-hoc test confirmed K4 and K6 as the most significant groups. It can be concluded that SSE (42.5 mg/kg BW) and SLE (450 mg/kg BW) are effective in lowering blood glucose levels in mice and hold potential to be developed as antidiabetic agents for managing diabetes mellitus.

Abstract

Vocational high schools (SMK) are formal educational institutions that play a crucial role in preparing students to be better prepared to face future challenges. Specific training or skills programs in certain fields, such as health, can be provided to students as provisions before entering the workforce. By providing a deeper understanding of microbiology testing from an early age, health vocational school graduates can be better prepared to face industry demands and actively improve safety standards in the health care sector. The safety and effectiveness of medical devices are highly dependent on microbiological control. The curriculum provides students with critical skills and insights related to microbiological testing on various medical devices. The manufacturing process of medical devices, especially Class II and III devices, requires a high level of sterility since they interact with blood, vessels, or internal organs of the human body. Therefore, microbiological testing is essential to ensure sterility. This review analyzes various microbiological testing methods used to ensure the safety of medical devices, focusing on Sterility Testing, Bioburden Testing, and Endotoxin Testing. The purpose of this review article is to provide information on microbiological tests applicable to sterile product evaluation. The method used in this study involves a literature review of Indonesian National Standards (SNI), Indonesian Pharmacopoeia (FI), and international journals. Various studies indicate that sterility testing is performed to ensure that medical device products are free from microbial contamination after sterilization treatment with ethylene oxide (EO) machines. Meanwhile, Bioburden Testing is conducted to determine the bacterial load on Medical Devices before sterilization with EO machines. Endotoxin Testing aims to ensure that Medical Devices are free from bacteria, particularly Gram-negative bacteria, which are pyrogenic and produce toxins in the body.
