Abstract

Environmental education is increasingly recognized as an essential thing from preschool to higher education. Environmental sustainability is vital for the survival of humans and all living organisms. The use of digital technology tools such as Google Sites can serve as an effective learning medium in environmental education. This study adopts the ADDIE development model, which includes the stages of Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation. This study aimed to develop a Google Sites-based medium for environmental education based on Socio-Scientific Issues and Islamic Integration. The study was conducted with first-semester students in the biology education program. The validity assessment of the Google Sites media for environmental education showed a highly valid category in both material and design aspects. The implementation of Google Sites media produced significant results in enhancing students’ environmental literacy. Students rated the Google Sites media very good as an environmental education based on Socio-Scientific Issues and Islamic Integration. In particular, the 'Environmental Creation' feature received positive feedback. These findings suggest that environmental education using Google Sites can be further developed to enhance students’ creativity and assessment literacy, for learning media at school and higher education levels and can be combined with the TPACK framework, project and problem based learning.

Abstract

Local wisdom refers to the knowledge, values, and cultural heritage of a community that is passed down through generations and needs to be preserved. One way to achieve this is by integrating local wisdom into education, allowing students to recognize and appreciate the richness of their local culture. The purpose of this study is to explore local wisdom in the fields of environmental biology, food and health, reproduction, and application in Pariaman City. These four areas serve as a contextual approach that connects Biology material with students’ daily lives. This study employed a descriptive method with a qualitative phenomenological approach. The subjects consisted of 10 informants selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through observation and in-depth interviews, and analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model. The findings reveal that local wisdom in Pariaman City encompasses the four identified fields, each of which can support contextualized Biology learning. In conclusion, integrating these aspects of local wisdom into education not only enriches Biology instruction but also fosters cultural awareness among students. Future research is recommended to examine effective strategies for implementing local.

Abstract

This study investigates the tracheal structure of several selected Moraceae species and its potential as a medium for learning high school biology. The method used is descriptive and maceration technique, with the aim of describing in detail the structure of tracheal cells in several species of plants of the Moraceae family. The research was conducted at the Biology Education Laboratory of Sriwijaya University. The samples used were jackfruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus), breadfruit (Artocarpus altilis), mulberry (Morus nigra), banyan (Ficus benjamina) and banyan beringin (Ficus callophylla) stems. Parameters observed included trachea type, secondary wall thickening type, perforation type, and length and diameter of tracheal cells. The results showed that the types of tracheal found were reticulate, spiral, and anular.  Secondary wall thickening types are reticulate I, reticulate II, Spiral I, Spiral II, and Ring. The types of perforations found were scalariform and simple. The length of tracheal cells varied from 247.16 µm to 832.34 µm, with the longest tracheal element found in the trachea of Artocarpus heterophyllus and the shortest in the trachea of Ficus benjamina. Meanwhile, the diameter of the tracheal elements ranged from 11.06 µm to 127.69 µm, with the widest diameter in the trachea of Artocarpus altilis and the narrowest in the trachea of Ficus benjamina. in addition, based on the validation results, the booklet developed from this study scored 91.66%, which is categorized as very valid. This indicates that the booklet is suitable for use and has the potential to be a learning resource to support biology learning.

Abstract

Integrating local cultural elements into education represents a strategic approach to preserving cultural heritage while increasing student engagement in understanding science, technology, engineering, art, and maths (STEAM) concepts. This research employed a qualitative case study approach, conducted in schools in Pangkep Regency. Data were collected through interviews with educators and cultural experts, participatory observations, and document analysis, while the findings were examined using thematic analysis. The objectives of this study are threefold: firstly, to identify local traditional games that can be integrated into STEAM learning; secondly, to analyze their impact on students' cognitive and social skills; and thirdly, to propose effective implementation strategies. The study's results demonstrated that traditional games such as Gandrang Bulo, Magasing-gassing, and Enggo-enggo possess considerable educational potential, enhancing science literacy and motor skills and fostering cultural identity and cooperative learning. However, it is crucial to acknowledge the challenges posed by limited educational resources and teacher readiness, which must be surmounted for the successful implementation of this approach. The study proposes the formulation of a structured curriculum that integrates these cultural elements, to enrich STEAM learning and foster a more profound appreciation of local cultural heritage among students.

Abstract

This study explores ethnoscientific practices surrounding Lansano (Pterocarpus indicus Willd.), a medicinal plant traditionally used in West Sumatra, Indonesia. Qualitative ethnographic methods, including direct observation and semi-structured interviews, were used with 50 respondents from various regions, including Padang, Pariaman, Solok, Sijunjung, Pasaman, Padang Panjang, and Pesisir Selatan. Participants included local healers, herbal practitioners, and community members known to use Lansano for medicinal purposes. This study employed a quantitative ethnobotanical approach with two main parameters: Use Value (UV) and Informant Consensus Factor (ICF). This study revealed a significant relationship between traditional practices and scientific evidence in the use of Lansano as an herbal medicine. This study is the first step in integrating Lansano ethnobotanical practices with bioactive data for the development of local culture-based phytopharmaceuticals. Use Value (UV) analysis showed that the leaves had the highest utilization value (UV = 0.70), followed by the roots (0.44), sap (0.36), and stems (0.30). Meanwhile, Informant Consensus Factor (ICF) analysis showed a complete consensus (ICF = 1.00) among informants regarding the use of lansano for various ailments, with the highest frequency of use for mouth ulcers, followed by diarrhea, menstrual pain, and burns. These results confirm that lansano has high ethnopharmacological value and is widely believed to be a primary traditional medicine in West Sumatra.

Abstract

The detection of borax in food is of critical importance due to its toxic properties, which pose serious health risks, especially when consumed continuously, even in small amounts. Therefore, an environmentally friendly, accessible, and easy-to-use detection method is needed for broader application, particularly in routine food monitoring. This study introduces a novel quantitative detection approach using butterfly pea flower (Clitoria ternatea L.) extract as a natural indicator, combining visual colorimetry and UV-Vis spectrophotometry for dual-mode borax analysis. Unlike previous studies that focused solely on qualitative color observation, this research establishes a quantitative correlation between absorbance and borax concentration, supported by strong linearity (R² = 0.9942) and high sensitivity (LoD = 0.026 ppm; LoQ = 0.088 ppm). The butterfly pea extract, rich in anthocyanins, produced a distinct blue color that shifted to green upon interaction with borax, forming a specific butterfly pea–borax complex with a maximum wavelength (λmax) at 624 nm. Application to real meatball samples revealed borax contents of 0.528% and 0.4641% in two samples, respectively. The integration of butterfly pea extract with turmeric paper as a dual-confirmation system enhances analytical reliability while maintaining cost-effectiveness and environmental safety. This work contributes a validated, eco-friendly, and quantitative natural detection method that bridges the gap between laboratory precision and community-based food safety monitoring.
