Abstract

Education is requires students to have skills to support the learning process in the 21st century. 21st century learning skills can be trained in various ways including through the learning model used by the teacher. The 2P3A learning model consists of 5 main stages, namely the Preparation stage, the Problem Statement stage, the Analyze stage, the Argument stage and the Application stage. This learning model focuses on training and improving argumentation skills, problem solving skills and literacy skills of students. Argumentation skills are enhanced at the Argument stage where students will be trained to state their views about a problem, Problem solving skills are improved through the Analyze stage where students are trained to look for and analyze problems given and Literacy Skills can be trained through the Preparation stage where students will be accustomed to read the learning material before starting the learning process.

Abstract

Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L. Walp), commonly known as kacang merah, is a type of legume native to southwest Maluku. This area is one of the areas with limited water availability, which causes stress to the plants. Drought stress can inhibit plant morphological growth starting from germination phase to reproductive phase. Simulation of drought stress environment can use PEG 6000. This study aims to analyze the morphological response of drought stress treatment with PEG 6000 induction in the germination phase of local cowpea varieties in Southwest Maluku. The study used a completely randomized design with PEG 6000 concentration treatment on different local varieties. The research stages consisted of preparation of PEG 6000 solution according to treatment concentration, seed germination for 7 days, and measurement of germination parameters (number of seventh day sprouts, final germination percentage, root and shoot length of sprouts, wet and dry weight of sprouts). The data obtained were analyzed using ANOVA and then Duncan's test. The results showed that PEG 6000 induction affected the morphological response of each local cowpea variety in Southwest Maluku at the germination stage. Variety KM6 showed better morphological response than other varieties in all PEG 6000 concentration treatments.

Abstract

The nickel mining activities in Indonesia, particularly on Obi Island, have significantly altered land-use patterns, marked by an expansion of bare land due to topsoil and vegetation removal. This has led to a drastic decline in dense and productive vegetation cover, which previously served as a carbon sink and habitat for local biodiversity. Utilizing Landsat 8 Surface Reflectance Collection 2 Tier 1 imagery (2015, 2020, 2025), this study employed the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) within the Google Earth Engine and ArcGIS Pro platforms to assess spatiotemporal changes in vegetation cover. Results indicate a substantial increase in non-vegetated areas and a significant reduction in moderate-to-high-density vegetation, particularly within the mining core zone, directly attributable to nickel extraction activities, which drive habitat fragmentation and ecosystem degradation. Although rehabilitation and revegetation efforts demonstrate localized success, ongoing mining pressures pose risks of further environmental damage without sustainable management. This study underscores the critical need for stringent environmental regulations and targets ecological restoration to mitigate mining impacts and ensure the long-term sustainability of Obi Island's ecosystems

Abstract

This study exakines the role of the COMT Val158Met genetic polymorphism in variations of children's cognition and learning character through a systematic literature review. This approach aims to understand how internal biological factors influence differences in children's learning styles and academic performance, as well as to highlight the importance of the interaction between genetic factors and the learning environment (gene x environment interaction). Through the search and analysis of relevant scientific articles from various international and national databases, this study found that genetic variations in COMT affect dopamine activity and neurotransmitter mechanisms, impacting executive function, emotion regulation, and responses to academic stress. The research findings conclude that understanding molecular genetics in the context of education can support the development of more personalized and adaptive learning approaches and support the implementation of neurodiversity-based educational strategies. This study also indicates the need for further research on the direct relationship between COMT polymorphism and learning characteristics in Indonesia, which is still limited at present.

Abstract

Momordica charantia L., commonly known as bitter melon, is a medicinal plant that contains various bioactive compounds such as flavonoids, saponins, tannins, triterpenoids, and alkaloids. These compounds have potential antifertility properties. This study aimed to evaluate the potential of bitter melon extract as an antifertility agent in female animals. A total of 18 female mice (Mus musculus L.) were divided into three groups: a control group (K0), treatment group 1 (P1) received 5% bitter melon extract, and treatment group 2 (P2) received 10% extract. The mice (Mus musculus L.) were orally administered the extract for 16 consecutive days using the gavage method. On the final day of treatment, the mice were dissected to isolate the ovaries. The ovaries were weighed and processed for histological examination using the paraffin method and Hematoxylin-Eosin staining. The observed parameters included the number of primary, secondary, tertiary, and Graafian follicles. Data were analyzed using one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by Duncan’s post hoc test to determine statistical differences among groups. The results showed that administration of 5% bitter melon extract significantly increased the number of primary and secondary follicles. However, at the 10% concentration, a reduction was observed in the number of all follicle types, including Graafian follicles. These findings indicate that low-dose bitter melon extract may promote ovarian follicle development, whereas high-dose administration exhibits antifertility potential through a phytoestrogen mechanism that inhibits follicular maturation.

Abstract

In the context of rapid digital transformation, the integration of the TPACK (Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge) framework has become increasingly vital for educators—especially those teaching biology—to facilitate the incorporation of technology into instruction and promote deeper student comprehension of complex topics. TPACK comprises three foundational areas: Technological Knowledge (TK), Pedagogical Knowledge (PK), and Content Knowledge (CK), as well as their interrelated domains: Pedagogical Content Knowledge (PCK), Technological Content Knowledge (TCK), and Technological Pedagogical Knowledge (TPK). This study investigates the extent to which high school biology teachers implement the TPACK components. Employing a descriptive research design with a test-based approach, the study targets a hypothetical population encompassing all senior high school biology teachers in Sragen Regency—past, present, and prospective. A convenience sampling technique was applied, selecting 17 currently active biology teachers from 13 senior high schools across the region. Data collection utilized a structured test instrument designed to evaluate teachers’ comprehension of TPACK concepts. Results indicate that the participants generally possess a moderate level of knowledge regarding the application of TPACK in teaching.
