Abstract

The growing dependence on fossil fuels has triggered environmental concerns, including greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution. Biodiesel production from waste cooking oil offers an environmentally friendly alternative that can be implemented through practical science activities. However, limited laboratory facilities often hinder its application in higher education. This study aims to analyze students’ perceptions of a biodiesel production experiment using low-cost equipment. A mixed-method approach with a sequential explanatory design was employed. Quantitative data were collected through closed-ended questionnaires completed by 63 students from the “Energy in Life Systems” course, complemented by semi-structured interviews with 10 selected participants. The five dimensions assessed included conceptual understanding, ease of use, safety, engagement, and cost-efficiency. Results showed mean scores of 4.46 for conceptual understanding (very good), 4.37 for cost-efficiency (very good), 4.43 for safety (very good), 4.46 for engagement (very good), and 4.06 for ease of use (good). Qualitative findings reinforced that students found the practicum effective, safe, enjoyable, and aligned with real-world applications. In conclusion, the use of low-cost equipment in biodiesel practicum enhances meaningful and contextual science learning, especially in resource-limited educational settings. Therefore, low-cost equipment-based practicum is recommended to be integrated into the science education curriculum, particularly in the context of project-based learning and limited laboratory facilities. Key Words: biodiesel; low-cost equipment; practical learning; student perception; renewable energy

Abstract

Physics learning faces serious challenges as students perceive physics as a complex subject that is difficult to implement in daily life. This research aims to explore the local wisdom of fishermen in "Miyang" (fishing) activities in Tuban as a context for ethnoscience-based physics learning and Socio-Scientific Issues (SSI) approach on heat transfer concepts. The research method uses a qualitative approach with observation, interview, documentation, and literature study techniques. The research subjects are fishermen who carry out Miyang activities in the coastal areas of Tuban Regency. Data were analyzed using qualitative descriptive analysis through data reduction, triangulation, comparative analysis, description-interpretation, and conclusion drawing. The research results show that Tuban fishermen have accurate understanding of land breeze and sea breeze phenomena that align with the concept of heat transfer by convection. Fishermen utilize land breeze for journeys to the open sea at night and sea breeze for return trips during the day, demonstrating efficient utilization of natural energy. This traditional knowledge represents an example of indigenous knowledge that can be integrated into ethnoscience-based physics learning, providing authentic learning contexts that help students understand that physics concepts are integrated into daily life. This research successfully identified land breeze and sea breeze phenomena as complex Socio-Scientific Issues that combine scientific aspects with social dimensions. In conclusion, the local wisdom of Tuban fishermen has a strong scientific foundation and great potential as a source of contextual and meaningful ethnoscience-based physics learning.

Abstract

Motivasi belajar merupakan faktor penting dalam menentukan keberhasilan akademik siswa. Salah satu faktor eksternal yang berpengaruh adalah jarak tempuh menuju kampus yang dapat mempengaruhi waktu belajar, kondisi fisik, serta semangat belajar. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis hubungan antara jarak tempuh dan motivasi belajar mahasiswa Tadris Biologi IAIN Kerinci. Penelitian menggunakan metode deskriptif kuantitatif dengan instrumen berupa angket skala Likert empat pilihan yang terdiri dari 30 pernyataan. Subjek penelitian adalah mahasiswa semester 3, 5, dan 7 yang dipilih menggunakan purposive sampling. Variabel jarak tempuh dibagi dalam enam kategori (0–5 km hingga 26–30 km). Analisis data dilakukan menggunakan Microsoft Excel dan JASP. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan adanya hubungan negatif yang signifikan antara jarak tempuh dan motivasi belajar, dengan nilai korelasi (R) sebesar -0,9879. Artinya semakin jauh jarak tempat tinggal siswa dari kampus semakin rendah motivasi belajar yang dimiliki. Hal ini terutama disebabkan oleh kelelahan fisik, keterbatasan waktu, dan kurangnya akses terhadap lingkungan akademik. Dengan demikian jarak tempuh menjadi salah satu faktor yang perlu diperhatikan dalam upaya meningkatkan motivasi belajar siswa.
