Abstract

Polyculture farming is an agricultural practice of growing several types of crops on the same land.The sustainability of polyculture farming is influenced by the presence of insects, both ecologically beneficial and detrimental. In agricultural ecology, insects have an important role as pollinators, predators, and pests that significantly affect the health of agricultural crops, including in polyculture farms. As an effort for sustainable polyculture management, especially in pest control, an exploratory study with mixed methods was conducted to determine the diversity, distribution, and categories of insects based on their ecological roles. This study was conducted in an agricultural area with a polyculture system in Palangka Raya, Central Kalimantan, Indonesia. A total of 12 insect species were identified from polyculture farms belonging to the orders Coleoptera, Diptera, Hemiptera, Lepidoptera, and Hymenoptera. The diversity of insects found in polyculture farming in this study was categorized into low diversity with a Shannon-Wiener index (H') of 2.186. Hemiptera is known to be the most abundant with 7 species identified. Based on the number of individuals, Componotus japonicus is the most abundant species with 9 individuals. The structure of the insect community based on their ecological role in polyculture farming consisted of 58.33% insect pests, 33.33% predatory insects, and 8.33% pollinating insects.

Abstract

Steamed cake is a type of cake that is enjoyed by all ages, both children and adults. This cake is usually made from wheat flour. Wheat flour causes dough to rise due to the gluten content. The use of excessive flour can be harmful to health. One alternative effort to replace wheat flour is to combine green bean sprout flour and Ambon banana peel flour. This study aims to determine the antioxidant level, the protein, fat, water, ash, and carbohydrate levels in steamed cakes made from green bean sprout flour and Ambon banana peel flour. This type of research is experimental. Antioxidants were analyzed using the DPPH method, protein was analyzed using the Kjeldahl method, and fat was analyzed using the Soxhlet method. The research results showed that the antioxidant activity in green bean sprout flour was 360.30 ppm which was classified as very weak, banana peel flour was 165.58 ppm which was classified as weak. The highest protein content was in sample T0 at 7.01%, the highest fat content was in sample T0 at 0.77%, the highest water content was in sample T2 at 43.95%, the highest ash content was in sample T3 at 1.15%, and the highest carbohydrate content was in sample T0 at 53.44%.

Abstract

The study investigated how the crossover instructional strategy (CIS) affected secondary school students' biology academic performance in Onitsha Education zone. The non-randomized control group design, a quasi-experimental research strategy, was used in the study. A multi-stage sampling technique was used to choose 52 Senior Secondary Year Two (SS2) students (21 boys and 31 girls) from the 5,132 biology students in the zone. A coin toss was used to assign the sampled students, who were enrolled in two intact classes, to the control (10 males and 15 girls) or experimental (11 boys and 16 girls) groups at random. The researchers created a 50-item biology achievement test (BAT), which has a reliability coefficient of 0.81. The results demonstrated that CIS increased biology students' academic success more than the Conventional Lecture Method (CLM). Biology student academic achievement was unaffected by gender either alone or in combination with the teaching strategies. The research found that CIS is a cutting-edge educational strategy that actively involves students in the learning process in both formal and informal settings, helping them retain biology concepts and ultimately improve their academic performance. In accordance with the findings, the study recommended that biology teachers implement CIS in schools to improve students' biology achievement.

Abstract

This research aims to ascertain how students' critical thinking skills change after being exposed to Problem-Based Learning (PBL). This study employs a quantitative methodology using quasi-experiments. Non-equivalent control groups were employed in this study. The population included 246 students from seven different classes at IPA SMA Negeri 1 Mamasa, who were all in grade XI. This research used a purposive sample of 36 students from the PBL class and 36 students from the control class. The t-test and the Mann-Whitney test were used to analyze the data in this investigation. The t-test results showed that the students' pretest was different (sig. <0.05), so the posttest t-test also showed a difference (sig. <0.05). The Mann-Whitney N-gain test was used to find out whether PBL had a statistically significant impact. The Mann-Whitney test found that the students' critical thinking had improved if the significance level (Sig. of N-gain) was less than 0.05. This study provides evidence that PBL may improve students' critical skills.

Abstract

The environment as a place where living things live has undergone significant changes which have resulted in a decrease in environmental quality. The level of students' understanding and awareness of the environment greatly influences the existing environmental conditions. However, the fact is that environmental knowledge possessed by students has not been fully applied in their environment. This study aimed to ascertain the relationship between students' environmental knowledge and environmental attitudes. This study employed a survey method with a correlational design for its research. Class X MIPA students from SMA Negeri 1 Banyuputih comprised the entire study population. The technique of sampling employed is saturated sampling. The data collection technique is by using a questionnaire on environmental knowledge and environmental attitudes which contains statements based on a Likert score. Students' environmental knowledge correlated with their environmental care attitude, with a Sig. 0.00 < 0.05.
