Abstract

The advancement of science and technology requires students to possess strong scientific literacy, particularly in understanding physical phenomena such as elasticity. However, students often demonstrate a low conceptual understanding of elasticity in real-life contexts, posing a challenge in physics education. This study aims to analyze students’ physics literacy skills using the Nature of Science Literacy Test (NOSLiT) instrument. This research employed a descriptive quantitative approach with a sample of 30 students from classes A, B, and C. Data were collected through a written test based on the NOSLiT framework, which consists of six scientific literacy indicators, and analyzed quantitatively using achievement categories. The findings revealed that students' overall scientific literacy achievement was categorized as low (43.2%). The highest achievement was on the scientific evidence rule indicator (58.8%, moderate category), while the lowest was on science process skills (24.3%, very low category). These results suggest the need for more interactive and experiment-based instructional strategies to enhance students’ conceptual understanding. Students' responses were mostly descriptive and lacked evidence-based reasoning, with misconceptions about relationships among physics variables still apparent. These findings emphasize the importance of incorporating scientific practices—such as experimentation, evidence utilization, and contextual problem-solving—into teaching. This study was limited to a single school and instrument, which restricts the generalizability of the results. Future research should include a broader sample and adopt a mixed-method approach to obtain more comprehensive insights. Moreover, the development of inquiry-based learning models is crucial to support the advancement of students' scientific literacy.

Abstract

Banana peels, often considered agricultural waste, are rich in bioactive compounds with significant antioxidant potential. This study evaluates the antioxidant activity of a combined ethanol extract from Cavendis (Musa acuminata) and Kepok (Musa paradisiaca) banana peels using the 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay. The extraction was performed via maceration with 96% ethanol, yielding 9.13%. Phytochemical analysis identified key compounds including flavonoids, tannins, saponins, and steroids/terpenoids, which are known to exhibit antioxidant properties. The extract demonstrated strong radical scavenging activity with an IC50 of 6.47 ppm and an Antioxidant Activity Index (AAI) of 5.40, comparable to Vitamin C (IC50 = 6.29 ppm; AAI = 5.56). These results indicate a synergistic effect from combining the two banana peel varieties, enhancing antioxidant efficacy beyond that reported for individual peels. This study supports the potential use of Cavendis and Kepok banana peel extracts as sustainable natural antioxidants for application in food preservation, nutraceuticals, and cosmetics. Future work should focus on optimizing extraction methods, detailed phytochemical profiling, stability assessment, and in vivo validation to advance product development and maximize health benefits.

Abstract

The low mathematical problem-solving ability of elementary school students is a crucial issue in mathematics learning that has not been optimally addressed. Initial studies suggest that existing learning tools lack cultural context and integration of innovative learning models. Previous research has focused on partial or higher grade levels, leaving gaps in the development of comprehensive problem-based tools for early grade students with local contexts. This research aimed to create Problem-Based Learning (PBL) tools that incorporate ethnomathematics, with the goal of improving students' mathematical problem-solving skills effectively, practically, and authentically, by utilizing the ADDIE development framework. The research instruments used include learning tools, validation sheets, student response questionnaires, and teacher activity observation sheets. The results demonstrated the validity, practicality, and efficacy of the developed products. The mean percentage of validation for learning module, student response questionnaires, and mathematical problem-solving ability tests was 88.5%, 90%, and 85%, respectively, in the valid category. The average practicality score of the learning tools, assessed through student feedback questionnaires and learning implementation observation forms, was found to be 83.85%, which falls within the practical category. Additionally, the results from the mathematical problem-solving assessments indicated that 80% of the students achieved scores exceeding the minimum competency requirements.

Abstract

Sustainability is a major challenge in the 21st century that must be managed by physics learning. This study aims to explore students' sustainability literacy in the context of energy conservation and transformation through physics questions created with an environmental approach. This study uniquely integrates local pesantren contexts into physics education to address sustainability literacy, offering a novel contribution to science education by incorporating cultural and contextual relevance. With a descriptive exploration of 30 grade X students from senior high school Nurul Jadid, the research was conducted using tests, questionnaires, and interviews. The results on the knowledge dimension showed that students performed very well at low cognitive levels, but higher-order thinking skills, especially evaluation and creation, were still low. In the skill dimension, students' ability to solve problems was moderate, with weaknesses in the aspects of evaluation and reflection. Although students responded well to the contextual problems, many had difficulty in drawing energy transformation schemes. These results indicate the need for more practical and contextualized learning to strengthen sustainability literacy in physics learning.

Abstract

Understanding how young people perceive renewable and non-renewable energy sources is essential for aligning education with Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This study explores the perspectives of 748 Indonesian high school students on solar panel versus fossil fuels through an open-ended question. Different from previous studies, this work uses semantic network analysis to map the conceptual connections in students’ understanding, which provides us a structural perspective on students’ perceptions. Using semantic network analysis with NetMiner, 748 Indonesian students’ responses were categorized into five ideas: Fossil fuels formation (G1), Solar panel role in sustainability (G2), Practical benefits of solar panels (G3), Non-renewable resource concern (G4), and Unsustainable fossil fuels use (G5). The findings indicate that students have a basic understanding of environmental and resource-related issues. Most responses remain surface level with limited demonstration of critical thinking. Furthermore, students’ ideas primarily address the environmental and economic pillars of Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) while the social pillar is rarely discussed. These results highlight the need to improve ESD practices in Indonesia by explicitly integrating social dimensions into sustainability education. Empowering students to consider who is affected by sustainability decisions, and how they can contribute to fairer, more inclusive solutions can help to increase not only environmental awareness but also foster civic responsibility and empathy.

Abstract

Students often view mathematics negatively because of the emphasis on memorizing formulas rather than conceptual understanding. Moreover, the delivery of theories is carried out without using learning media. As a result, students find it difficult to understand the material, especially in students' numeracy skills due to the minimal use of learning media. This study was conducted based on a gap in previous research, namely that there has been no research that shows the development of concrete media that focuses on improving numeracy as well as improving students' numeracy through story problems that are relevant to everyday life. The purpose of this study is to develop Calbox Jurang learning media to overcome problems in mathematics subjects, especially addition and subtraction materials and to improve the numeracy skills of class I students of MI Al Falah Kebonagung. This Calbox Jurang media provides an interactive learning experience with the visualization of concrete objects so that it can help students to explore mathematical concepts actively, compared to other concrete learning media that tend to be less likely to provide opportunities for students to be actively involved in the learning process. This research method uses R&D research with the ADDIE model (Analyze, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation). Data collection techniques use observation, interviews, questionnaires, tests, and documentation. The results of the validation of design experts obtained 82.5%, material experts 87.5% and language experts 85%. From the results of the three media validators, it can be categorized as suitable for use. The pretest results obtained 63.75%, and there was an increase in the posttest results of 90.75% and the effectiveness test results were 0.74 in the high category. So, it can be concluded that the development of Calbox Jurang learning media can improve students' numeracy skills and can be used as a learning medium for addition and subtraction materials.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the mathematical literacy skills of junior high school students on the geometry of tubes and cones by applying the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) model with a team teaching strategy assisted by Educaplay digital media in terms of student learning styles. This study employed a descriptive qualitative approach with a case study design. The research subjects consisted of 30 eighth-grade students, with an in-depth analysis focused on three students, each representing a dominant learning style: visual, auditory, and kinesthetic. The research instruments included a learning style questionnaire, a mathematics literacy test based on local cultural contexts, and semi-structured interviews. The results indicated that visual learners tended to excel in interpreting visual contexts but struggled with abstract mathematical formulation. Auditory learners demonstrated understanding through verbal explanations but showed weaknesses in procedural aspects, while kinesthetic learners exhibited strong spatial reasoning through hands-on experiences. This study reveals that implementing the PBL model, integrated with team teaching strategies and the interactive media Educaplay, positively impacts the development of students’ mathematical literacy, taking into account differences in learning styles and their connection to local cultural contexts.

Abstract

Statistics is an essential course in the curriculum of the Informatics Engineering Study Program, as it plays a crucial role in equipping students with skills in data analysis, information processing, and data-driven decision-making. However, various studies have reported that students often experience low self-efficacy in statistics, which can hinder their academic performance and engagement. This study aims to compare the effectiveness of the ICT-based APOS model and the M-APOS model on students’ self-efficacy, taking into account their Initial Mathematical Ability (IMA). The APOS theory provides the foundation for the instructional models used, while Bandura’s theory of self-efficacy underpins the construct being measured. A quasi-experimental method was employed using a 2 × 2 factorial design (treatment by level). The data analyzed were students’ scores on a validated and reliable self-efficacy questionnaire, and a two-way ANOVA was used as the analytical technique. Prerequisite tests included the Lilliefors test for normality and Levene’s test for homogeneity. The rationale for selecting the ICT-based APOS and M-APOS models lies in their potential to address cognitive and metacognitive learning challenges in mathematical thinking. The results showed that, overall, students taught using the ICT-based APOS model demonstrated higher self-efficacy than those taught with the M-APOS model. A significant interaction was found between the learning model and IMA on students’ self-efficacy. Students with high IMA who received instruction through the ICT-based APOS model exhibited greater self-efficacy than those who experienced the M-APOS model. Among students with low IMA, there was no significant difference. These findings suggest that integrating technology into constructivist learning models such as APOS can enhance students’ confidence in learning statistics, particularly for those with a strong mathematical foundation, and inform future innovations in adaptive, ability-sensitive instructional design.

Abstract

Science practicum has an important role in fostering students' scientific skills, but its implementation at the junior high school level still faces various obstacles, such as limited laboratory equipment and practicum guidelines that are not optimal. This study aims to analyze the needs of teachers and students for the implementation of science practicum as a basis for developing guided inquiry-based guidelines. The research method used was descriptive qualitative with data collection techniques through surveys and in-depth interviews. The research subjects consisted of 219 students and 52 junior high school science teachers in the South Sumatra region. The results of the analysis showed that 98.6% of students and 98,1% of teachers stated the importance of practicum guides, while only 34.4% of students and 40% of teachers had used or made inquiry-based guides. The majority of respondents supported the use of the guided inquiry approach because it is believed to be able to improve science process skills. However, limited tools and teacher understanding are the main obstacles to implementation. Therefore, the results of this study emphasize the need to develop guided inquiry-based science practicum guides that are systematic, applicable, and relevant to the context of junior high school learning.
