Abstract

This study focuses on the potential of yard plants as refugia plants that play an important role in maintaining the balance of the ecosystem in residential areas. Yard plants not only function as aesthetic elements that beautify the environment, but also play an ecological role as providers of microhabitats for various organisms, including natural enemies of plant pests. In the context of applied ecology, the concept of refugia emphasizes the function of certain plants that can provide shelter, food sources, and reproductive areas for predators and parasitoids that play a role in biological control of pests. Therefore, the identification and analysis of the potential of yard plants as refugia are important to support the principle of sustainable environmental management in residential areas. This study aims to analyze the composition and structure of yard plant vegetation, identify the main types of arthropod visitors to dominant plants, and assess the ecological relationship between vegetation and the presence of arthropods. The research methods include vegetation surveys with direct censuses to determine the types and dominance of plants, and observations of arthropods using visual encounter techniques. Data were analyzed descriptively quantitatively to determine the structure of the vegetation community and the intensity of interactions between biotic components. The results showed that the most common types of yard plants were the Lily (Hymenocallis littoralis) and the Balinese Ornamental Pandanus (Dracaena draco), with the highest visitation rate among arthropods in the Formicidae family. These findings demonstrate the ecological potential of yard plants as supporting elements for the conservation of natural enemies of pests. This study emphasizes the importance of optimizing yard vegetation as refugia plants to support biological control systems and increase public awareness of the ecological function of plants in the residential environment.

Abstract

The stagnation of global scientific literacy scores, as highlighted by PISA results, necessitates a paradigm shift toward culturally responsive pedagogies that foster holistic competencies. This study investigates the global trends of Ethno-STEM integration in facilitating Scientific Reasoning and 6C Skills (Character, Citizenship, Collaboration, Communication, Creativity, and Critical Thinking) through the lens of deep learning. Employing a mixed-method approach combining Systematic Literature Review (SLR) with PRISMA protocol and bibliometric analysis, we analyzed 2889 documents from the Scopus database spanning 2015 to 2026. The findings reveal an exponential growth in publications, predominantly driven by Indonesia and the United States, indicating a shift from a "western-centric" to a localized science education approach. VOSviewer visualization unveils a critical thematic evolution: research focus has transitioned from mere documentation of indigenous knowledge (e.g., ethnobotany) to complex pedagogical interventions aiming at cognitive development and digital integration. Theoretically, Ethno-STEM serves as an "epistemological bridge," reducing cognitive dissonance between students' native science and school science. Practically, the study recommends transforming curricula by embedding local wisdom as a core context for Project-Based Learning (PjBL) to nurture high-order thinking. Future research directions highlight the need for integrating immersive technologies (AI/AR/VR) and conducting empirical studies to measure the direct impact of Ethno-STEM on scientific reasoning.
