Abstract

The research aims to analyze lesson study learning in climate change courses on student collaboration skills during group learning.  The approach used is qualitative with the type of case study. The subjects in this study were physics education students who took climate change courses consisting of 16 students, including 13 female students and 3 male students. Data collection techniques used in the study by means of documentation and observation when learning with lesson study takes place. Documentation data was obtained during the learning process in the form of recordings of discussions of each group that participated in learning in the climate change course. The results showed that the collaboration skills of students varied between groups, influenced by group members and the ability to work together between members. Analysis with TBLA assisted by NVivo through coding and identifying the main themes, from the problems given to discuss related to the issue of climate change and modern agriculture. The results of the analysis based on learners' discussions showed a deep understanding of climate change and suggested solutions, such as vertical farming innovations, to overcome the challenges related to increasingly narrow agricultural land.  This study provides insights into lesson study in improving learners' awareness of climate change issues and learners' collaboration skills. Lesson study, with its collaboration-based approach, enables learners to actively discuss, evaluate and understand the impacts of climate change in a real context.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to implement STEM-integrated PBL based on local wisdom (Gong Buleuh) on sound wave materials and analyze its effect on improving student learning outcomes. The method used in this study is quasi-experimental with a non-equivalent control group design. This research involved two classes of XI Science at SMA Negeri 8 Jambi City, each consisting of 30 students. The experimental class used STEM-based integrated PBL based on local wisdom (Gong Buleuh), while the control class used PBL without integration. A pretest and posttest were administered to evaluate students’ learning achievement. After implementation, students in the experimental class demonstrated significantly improved learning outcomes compared to those in the control class. The paired sample t-test showed a significance value of 0.000 and a large effect size (Cohen's d = 7.76). Furthermore, independent sample t-tests showed significant differences between the experimental class and the control class, with a significance value of 0.000 and a large effect size (Cohen's d = 1.78). These results suggest that incorporating local wisdom and STEM approaches into the PBL model can improve student learning outcomes and have high relevance in efforts to improve the quality of physics education in secondary schools.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of Remazol batik wastewater treatment at SMAN 3 Muaro Jambi through degradation and adsorption using a TiO₂/biochar photocatalytic composite. The biochar was derived from cassava peel and employed under UV light irradiation, with UV-Vis spectrophotometry used for analysis. Treatment efficiency was assessed by varying the biochar mass (1–4 grams) and reaction time (1, 3, and 6 hours). The highest removal efficiency of 100% was achieved at 4 grams of biochar and 6 hours of exposure. The adsorption process followed the Freundlich isotherm model, indicating a multilayer adsorption mechanism on the biochar surface. These findings suggest that the TiO₂/biochar composite offers an effective, eco-friendly, and practical solution for small-scale batik wastewater treatment, particularly in educational and home industry settings.

Abstract

This study aims to explore junior secondary school teachers’ perspectives on the use of digital media and its implications for the transformation of science education in the digital era. This study employed a survey research design. Data were collected from 1,622 teachers across 38 provinces in Indonesia using a structured questionnaire encompassing five key domains: the intensity and types of digital media use, challenges in implementation, expected forms of support, and the impact on the learning process. The instrument underwent expert validation by three specialists in educational technology and science education. The content validity results indicated an S-CVI score of 0.95 for content relevance, 0.93 for clarity of wording, and 0.93 for alignment with the research objectives. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics to summarize the trends in teacher responses. The results show that 87.8% of teachers were accustomed to using digital technology in learning, with the highest frequency of use falling under several times per week (64.8%). The main barriers identified were limited device access (67.7%), unstable internet connectivity (60.7%), and insufficient training (56.6%). Most teachers emphasized the need for sustainable and subject-relevant digital competency training. The findings highlight that the transformation of science education in the digital era depends not only on infrastructure availability but also on the pedagogical capacity of teachers to utilize digital media in contextual, exploratory, and, scientific ways.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the scientific communication skills of junior high school students who participate in robotics extracurricular activities through STEM-based learning with the Transcript-Based Lesson Analysis (TBLA) approach. The research was conducted at Nurul Ilmi 1 Integrated Islamic Junior High School, Jambi City, involving four groups of robotics extracurricular students. Each group is involved in the robot creation and testing project, and the interactions between group members during the activity are recorded, transcribed and analyzed using TBLA instruments. The analysis was carried out in a descriptive quantitative manner by calculating the frequency of the occurrence of six indicators of scientific communication, which were then converted into percentages. This process is done with the help of an excel application. Preliminary results show that the most dominant indicators are the ability to convey work verbally and the use of simple scientific terms, while the indicator asking about how robots work appears the least. These results provide an overview of students' scientific communication tendencies in the context of robotics activities, as well as provide a basis for the development of STEM learning models that can improve students' scientific communication skills through non-formal approaches

Abstract

Mandai is a traditional fermented food from East Kalimantan made from the peel of cempedak (Artocarpus champeden). To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first to report the isolation and characterization of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) from mandai. The fermentation process was carried out for 14 days using MRS Agar medium, resulting in 17 bacterial isolates, consisting of nine Gram-negative and eight Gram-positive isolates. Among them, eight Gram-positive isolates were dominant and exhibited typical LAB characteristics, including acid and gas production from glucose, negative catalase activity, non-motility, growth at 48°C but not at 16°C, and the ability to hydrolyze starch, fat, and casein. During fermentation, the pH decreased from 6.8 to 3.8, confirming active lactic acid production. These findings demonstrate that LAB play a crucial role in generating the characteristic sour taste and improving the quality of mandai. Importantly, the identified LAB isolates have potential as starter cultures to enhance the safety, consistency, and nutritional value of this traditional food.
