Abstract

Word formation is the process of creating new words in a language, which can be influenced by historical events, cultural interactions, and contact with other languages. In this context, this study explores the historical and cultural factors that have shaped word formation in Indonesian and Malagasy, two languages from distinct linguistic and cultural contexts. The primary objective is to analyze how historical events, cultural exchanges, and contact with other languages have influenced the development of word formation processes in both languages. This study uses a qualitative approach using a documentation study to gather relevant textual data. Data collection involved reviewing historical records, linguistic texts, and scholarly articles, while data analysis was conducted through thematic analysis to identify patterns and influences on word formation. The findings reveal that both languages exhibit significant historical and cultural influences, such as colonialism and trade, which have contributed to the introduction of loanwords and new word-formation strategies. In conclusion, the study highlights the role of historical and cultural contexts in shaping the evolution of language and provides insights into the interplay between linguistic structures and societal influences in both Indonesian and Malagasy.

Abstract

Numeracy and science literacy are essential competencies in navigating the increasingly complex global era. In this context, proficiency in English as an international language serves as a strategic advantage, enabling broader access to high-quality learning resources. This research-based community service aims to improve numeracy and science literacy among students at Pondok Pesantren in Pekalongan, by integrating English-based learning resources used service learning approach.. The program was introduced to improve students' readiness to face global challenges, focusing on strengthening their understanding of numeracy and science through English-based learning materials. This study evaluates the effectiveness of the program using statistically analyzed pretest and posttest data. The results showed an increase in mean score from pretest (5.44) to posttest (7.67), but statistical analysis showed that this increase was not significant. The normality test confirmed that the data distribution was normally distributed, which allowed the use of parametric statistical methods. The paired samples t-test showed no significant difference between pretest and posttest scores (p-value = 0.093). However, the effect size analysis showed a moderate effect (Cohen's d = 0.636, Hedges' g = 0.606), which suggested that the program made a meaningful impact, although not statistically significant. These results suggest that although the program has potential, it needs improvements such as longer duration, larger sample size, and more effective teaching methods to achieve significant results. The study concludes that integrating English literacy with numeracy and science education has the potential to prepare students for global challenges, and the program can be further developed with stronger implementation strategies.

Abstract

Garbage has various categories so it needs to be sorted to make it easier to sort according to its benefits. However, waste sorting is very difficult to implement for some people including in the school environment. Therefore, the objective of this study was to test the effects of visual prompt on waste sorting behavior among students in selected secondary schools in Lagos, Nigeria. Quasi-experimental design was adopted while visual prompt was manipulated at three levels of word, picture and word+ picture to obtain data on waste sorting behavior among 240participants. Data collected were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics to test one hypothesis which was accepted at p <.001 level of significance. The result demonstrated that picture was the most effective visual prompt that improved waste sorting behavior followed by word + picture prompt and then word prompt compared to the control group. The study concluded that visual prompt improved waste sorting behavior. The novelty of this study is that it is the first time effects of visual prompt on waste sorting behavior is studied using quasi-experimental design in Nigerian schools. The study recommended that school authority and other stakeholders’ interested in solid waste management should design appropriate visual prompts to encourage waste sorting activities in their school environments.

Abstract

According to PISA 2022, the level of scientific literacy among students in Indonesia is considered low. One contributing factor is the lack of contextual learning in science education. In line with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly Goal 4 (Quality Education), it is essential to ensure the provision of relevant education that is connected to real-life experiences. One way to create contextual learning is by integrating local wisdom into the learning process. This study aims to explore the role of Patil Lele as a form of local wisdom in enhancing students' scientific literacy. The research method used is a literature review. Data were collected by reviewing five previous studies related to the application of local wisdom in physics education. The collected data were analyzed using the principles of organization, synthesis, and identification. The findings reveal that Patil Lele can serve as an interactive learning medium, support students in understanding the relationships between physical quantities in real contexts, and provide opportunities to practice decision-making and problem-solving based on physics concepts. Therefore, it can be concluded that the integration of patil lele as a local wisdom approach plays a significant and positive role in improving students' scientific literacy.

Abstract

The low financial inclusion index among 15–17-year-olds, at only 57.96%, highlights an urgent need for targeted interventions. Financial inclusion is an important factor in the growth and development of a country, as well as a driver of the achievement of the SDGs. Therefore, community service activities were carried out focused to increase Gen Z's understanding and active participation in financial services. This community service activity uses the Participatory Action Research (PAR) method, which consists of five stages: Research and Intervention Goals, Assessment of Needs, Action Planning, Action Taking, and Project Outcomes. A total of 427 tenth-grade students from senior high school in Surabaya participated. Interventions included the development and classroom use of interactive flipbooks on Central Banking, Payment Systems, and Payment Instruments, combined with contextual learning activities such as financial education sessions with Bank Indonesia, bank account openings, and hands-on digital transactions (e.g., QRIS, e-wallets, and mobile banking) during a school entrepreneurship bazaar. Data were collected through pre- and post-tests, structured questionnaires, interviews, and behavioral observations. Quantitative analysis was used to measure cognitive gains (test scores) and behavioral indicators (account openings and digital transaction frequency). The results showed a significant increase in students’ knowledge and participation in formal financial systems. The combination of interactive digital media and contextual experiential learning effectively bridged the gap between Gen Z’s digital potential and their financial inclusion. This model can be scaled nationally to support inclusive economic development among youth.

Abstract

The development of the world of education today requires graduates not only to master academic competencies but also to have an entrepreneurial spirit. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen SDG 4 (Quality Education) in order to create competent human resources in entrepreneurship. In this context, the concept of edupreneurship (a combination of education and entrepreneurship) is becoming increasingly relevant, especially for graduates of the Physics Education study program, who have so far been considered primarily oriented toward conventional academic or industrial careers. This study aims to describe the perspectives and factors resulting from the edupreneur course. The method used is a mixed-methods approach, which combines quantitative and qualitative methods. Data collection techniques are carried out through questionnaires distributed to physics education students. Data analysis used is EFA analysis and thematic qualitative description. The results obtained show that the edupreneur course provides three factors for students, namely AE (Entrepreneurial Action), PE (Entrepreneurial Education), and ME (Entrepreneurial Motivation). The results of student perspectives show that the edupreneurship course is essential to teach. It proves that edupreneurship courses can shape students' entrepreneurial spirit. That is because educational programs also require entrepreneurial skills, starting from idea development. The studies suggest that integrating edupreneurship across academic programs is crucial. By highlighting the importance of entrepreneurship in education, this study recommends that edupreneurship courses be integrated evenly into all study curricula, enabling the realization of SDG 4. That is because the curriculum in Indonesia emphasizes not only academic skills but also entrepreneurial skills.

Abstract

Scientific reasoning is a fundamental skill that must be developed in higher education, particularly in science-related disciplines. However, existing learning resources often lack an explicit focus on data interpretation and evidence-based analysis, both essential for scientific reasoning. This study aimed to develop and evaluate the validity, practicality, and effectiveness of a data literacy-based e-module designed to enhance undergraduate students’ scientific reasoning skills. Employing a design and development approach based on the ADDIE model, the research included analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation stages. The e-module was developed by aligning curriculum needs, scientific reasoning indicators, and core data literacy principles. Content and construct validity were assessed through expert reviews, yielding high validity scores (above 3.7) and strong reliability (α = 0.83-0.94). Small-scale trials with undergraduate science education students demonstrated high levels of learning activity (72%-94%) and consistent student engagement throughout the learning phases. Students' scientific reasoning improved significantly, with N-Gain scores ranging from 0.49 to 0.74, categorized as moderate to high, particularly in indicators such as proportional thinking. Statistical tests indicated no significant differences between class groups, suggesting consistent effectiveness across cohorts. Student feedback was overwhelmingly positive, with agreement levels reaching 100% on most evaluation indicators. This research contributes to the advancement of pedagogical design by integrating data literacy into the scientific reasoning process, offering a replicable learning resources that can be adapted across science disciplines to better prepare students for data-driven scientific inquiry in the digital era.
