Abstract

Competency-based nursing education requires students to master clinical skills critical to workforce readiness; however, challenges persist in the field practicum due to limited structured guidance. This study addresses the lack of research on the effectiveness of structured digital e-mentoring programs in Indonesian clinical settings. The purpose was to evaluate the impact of group e-mentoring on the competence and performance of clinical instructors in supporting nursing student guidance at Nurul Hasanah Hospital, Kutacane. A quantitative quasi-experimental design with a pre- and post-test (without control group) was used. Total sampling based on inclusion criteria resulted in 60 respondents, including clinical instructors and nursing students. Competence was measured using the Mentor Competencies Instrument (MCI), and performance was assessed with the Nurse Mentor Performance Assessment tool. Data analysis employed the Wilcoxon signed-rank test to compare pre- and post-intervention scores. Results demonstrated statistically significant improvements in competence (mean increased from 115.2 to 148.3) and performance (mean increased from 55.8 to 66.2), with p-values of 0.000 and 0.001 respectively, indicating a positive effect of preceptorship and mentorship training integrated within the group e-mentoring program. These findings suggest that structured digital e-mentoring enhances clinical instructors' ability to provide effective student guidance, optimizing clinical education in resource-limited settings.

Abstract

Climate change is a critical global issue with complex and far-reaching impacts that extend beyond the environment to include social, economic, and health dimensions. Addressing these challenges requires future professionals, such as forestry students, to develop strong analytical thinking skills, particularly in identifying and formulating environmental problems. Despite the growing recognition of climate change, limited research exists on forestry students’ understanding and analytical response to this issue, especially within specific regional contexts such as West Nusa Tenggara (NTB), Indonesia—a region particularly vulnerable to climate-related effects. This study aims to examine the level of awareness among forestry students regarding climate change issues in NTB and to evaluate their problem-identification and problem-formulation skills based on the phenomenon of global warming in the area. The novelty of this research lies in its regional focus, as NTB is seldom featured in climate literacy studies despite its unique climatic challenges. Using a descriptive quantitative method, data were collected from 26 forestry students enrolled in a Basic Chemistry course through an essay-based test administered in October. The variables observed were environmental awareness, problem-formulating ability, and problem-identifying ability. Data analysis was conducted descriptively and presented in tables and graphs. Results showed low student performance across all variables, with mean scores of 44.6 (awareness), 50.96 (problem formulation), and 40.76 (problem identification). These findings underscore the urgent need for strategic, problem-based educational approaches to improve students’ climate awareness and analytical competencies, ultimately preparing them to effectively contribute to sustainable environmental solutions in their future professional roles.

Abstract

Mild to moderate anemia impairs cognitive performance and academic engagement among adolescent girls, yet school-based nutrition programs in Indonesia focus largely on iron and vitamin A. This study evaluated whether a focused 30-day regimen of 20 mg/day zinc could improve both hemoglobin concentration and attention, as measured by the Stroop Color–Word Test, in 30 junior high school girls with baseline hemoglobin < 12 g/dL. Following daily supplementation, mean hemoglobin rose from 10.6 ± 0.5 g/dL to 12.4 ± 0.4 g/dL (Δ = 1.8 g/dL, p < 0.001, Cohen’s d = 3.86), fully eliminating moderate anemia in this cohort. Stroop scores increased from 61.2 ± 5.3 to 75.8 ± 4.6 points (Δ = 14.6, p < 0.001, Cohen’s d = 2.88), with no students remaining in the lowest concentration category post-intervention. These parallel gains reflect zinc’s dual role in enhancing erythropoiesis improving cerebral oxygen delivery—and modulating neurotransmission via NMDA/GABA balance and BDNF upregulation. Effect sizes exceed those typically reported for iron-only or broader micronutrient interventions. Findings support integrating a one-month zinc supplement into Indonesian school-health protocols to rapidly correct anemia and bolster cognitive readiness for learning.

Abstract

In the 21st century, scientific literacy is crucial for students as it connects science to real-life issues. The Socio-Scientific Issues (SSI) approach can be used through contextual learning to enhance students' scientific literacy. This approach involves developing teaching materials based on SSI and for this research, the focus is on disasters and mitigation to increase preparedness in disaster-prone areas. The research aims to develop and test the feasibility and practicality of SSI-based teaching products using the Research and Development (R&D) method, specifically the ADDIE model. The novelty of the SSI e-module is in the issues discussed, the interactive and varied material, and the quiz features. These can improve students' scientific reasoning by involving them in real-life problem-based discussions relevant to everyday life, thus encouraging critical analysis, decision-making, and collaborative problem-solving.Data was collected through interviews with teachers to analyze their needs and through questionnaires distributed to students, feasibility tests, and product practicality tests. The results showed 90% material feasibility, 100% concept correctness, 95% media feasibility, and 96% question feasibility, all falling within the "very feasible" category. Additionally, an empirical test of the questions through validity testing resulted in 10 valid and 5 invalid questions, with a reliability test yielding a score of 0.717.The score is included in the high category, it needs to be increased to the very high category (0.80 ≤ r ≤ 1.00) by evaluating the material, design, and structure of the module. The product's practicality was tested on 2 science teachers and 32 class VIII students, and achieved percentages of 94% and 89% respectively, categorizing it as "very practical". In conclusion, the e-modules developed in this research are deemed very feasible and practical for facilitating scientific literacy in students.

Abstract

The complexity of thermochemistry and its abstract nature is often difficult for students to study. To address this issue, we designed an Android-based application using Kvisoft FlipBook Maker and AppsGeyser to help their study process. This research focuses on improving students' understanding of thermochemistry through digital learning tools. Using the ADDIE (Analyze, Design, Develop, Implement, and Evaluate) development model, we created an interactive learning module in the form of an android application. The reason for using an android application is because there is no longer a risk that the learning module will be hidden or forgotten with other files, the application can also be accessed easily as long as it has an android device. Previous research has also indicated that a digital teaching tool can improve the understanding of chemistry learning due to attractive visualization and self-learning opportunities. This study involved validation from media and material experts, as well as assessment from chemistry teachers and students of SMA Muhammadiyah 7 Yogyakarta. The final product received high validation scores, with 97.8% from media experts, 93.3% from material experts, and 90.3% from chemistry teachers. In addition, 95.8% of students responded positively to the app. These findings suggest that the developed application is highly effective for independent student learning and can enhance engagement with thermochemistry concepts.

Abstract

This study aims to develop an E-Booklet utilizing endophytic fungi isolated from the roots of Phalaenopsis amabilis to improve learning outcomes of Kingdom Fungi material for class X MA Zainul Bahar students, Bondowoso. The research method used is the ADDIE development model (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation). The isolation results show a diversity of endophytic fungi that are potentially authentic learning resources. This e-booklet is organized in an interactive and contextual manner, integrating isolation result data into teaching materials that are in accordance with the Merdeka Curriculum. The novelty of this research lies in the utilization of endophytic fungi from the roots of P. amabilis as a source of local content that has not been widely explored in learning media. In addition, the use of the E-Booklet format based on original research data provides added value in the form of a scientific approach directly from the field, which is not yet available in conventional learning resources. This study involved 27 grade X students using the one-group pretest-posttest design method and an expert validation test. Validation by experts gave the material a score of 91% (very valid) and media 87% (very valid), while the practicality test based on student questionnaires reached 85% (practical). N-gain analysis of 0.82 (high category) shows that this E-Booklet effectively improves students' learning outcomes on the Kingdom Fungi material.

Abstract

This study addresses the gap in understanding how personal context influences students' numeracy skills, particularly in the context of the Minimum Competency Assessment (MCA) in Indonesia. The research problem centers on the challenge of engaging students with numeracy tasks that are not only mathematically relevant but also relatable to their personal experiences. While the MCA assesses mathematical reasoning and problem-solving, students often struggle to apply these skills to real-world scenarios, particularly when the context of the problems is unfamiliar or disconnected from their daily lives. This study aims to analyze the numeracy skills of eighth-grade students in solving problems with a personal context within the Minimum Competency Assessment (MCA). The study employed a mixed-methods design, integrating both quantitative and qualitative data. Quantitative data were analyzed using content validity analysis (Aiken's V) and inter-rater reliability (Cohen's Kappa) to assess the validity and consistency of the MCA questions. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the students' numeracy scores. For qualitative analysis, semi-structured interviews were conducted to explore students' reasoning and problem-solving strategies. The triangulation of data from the MCA tests and interviews provided a comprehensive understanding of how students engaged with mathematical problems and applied their numeracy skills in real-world contexts. A total of 17 eighth-grade students were selected, and three students from each numeracy category; high, medium, and low were chosen using a categorization method based on standard deviation. Results showed that students with high numeracy abilities demonstrated effective problem-solving and reasoning skills, while students with medium and low numeracy abilities struggled with complex problems and real-world applications. The study suggests that while personal context can enhance student engagement, its effectiveness depends on a solid foundation in numeracy skills. The findings recommend a balanced approach in teaching, strengthening foundational skills alongside contextualized learning. In conclusion, while the personal context in MCA increases student engagement and relevance, particularly among high-performing students, its effectiveness is contingent on a solid foundation in basic numeracy skills. A balanced approach that strengthens basic numeracy skills while incorporating personal contexts is necessary to foster critical thinking and effective application of mathematics across all ability levels.

Abstract

Unhealthy lifestyle in modern era brings public health issues to metabolic disorders that trigger the emergence of degenerative diseases such as cardiovascular, atherosclerosis, and diabetes mellitus. Indonesian people's awareness of health has led to a trend of seeking for alternative food to prevent degenerative diseases. Functional drinks based on antioxidants from natural ingredients have become a potential solution to solve this issues. This study aims to determine the chemical characteristics and sensory quality of functional drinks in the form of instant tea bags made from pigeon pea, cinnamon, and lime peel. The parameters tested in this study were functional groups of organic compounds using FTIR, moisture content using the thermogravimetric method, pH value, sugar content using the Luff Schoorl method, antioxidant activity using the DPPH method, and organoleptic tests using the scoring method to assess the sensory quality of tea. The results showed that the highest moisture content was obtained in F4 at 8.56% and the lowest value in F1 at 6.97%. The highest pH value was in F4 with a value of 6.76 and the lowest in F5 at 5.72. Antioxidant compound analysis confirmed that all tea formulations has a very strong antioxidant capacity for all formulas with the highest IC50 value obtained in F1 at 1.29 ppm. In terms of total organoleptic score for color, aroma and flavor, the most preferred formula is F1> F2> F4> F5> F3 with scores respectively of 4.16; 4.17; 3.40; 3.28; and 3.07. Based on all the chemical and sensory characteristics of the antioxidant tea products, formulations F1and F2 have the potential to be further development.

Abstract

This study aims to map research trends related to local wisdom in educational science through a bibliometric approach. By analyzing 64 articles obtained from the Scopus database from 2009 to 2024, this study explores publication patterns, cross-country collaborations, dominant keywords, relevant topics, and their implications. The analysis was carried out with the help of the R program application. The results show that publications related to local wisdom have experienced a significant increasing trend from previous years. Indonesia is the main contributor with institutional affiliations such as Padang State University and Surabaya State University. Local wisdom keywords dominate with a strong relationship to science learning and character education. This study is able to provide an overview of the importance of research related to local wisdom related to educational science and provide important insights regarding the integration of local wisdom in science to support the sustainability of local culture while meeting the challenges of global education. Keyword co-analysis reveals that “local wisdom” frequently co-occurs with themes such as science education, character education, and ethnoscience, reflecting efforts to contextualize science learning within cultural frameworks. While the integration of local wisdom presents potential for curriculum development and culturally responsive pedagogy, these implications should be interpreted within the scope of the descriptive bibliometric findings. Further research is recommended to explore practical models and cross-national collaboration strategies. Futre recommendation is for developing a model for integrating local wisdom into STEM and character-based education.
