Abstract

Traditional compartmentalized education often fails to cultivate active environmental awareness, necessitating innovative instructional designs that integrate local ecosystems into multidisciplinary curricula. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of a transdisciplinary Project-Based Learning (PjBL) design, centered on the Ijen Geopark, in catalyzing student environmental agency and conceptual understanding. Employing a descriptive survey with a mixed-methods approach, the research evaluated vocational high school students engaged in this integrated instructional framework. Data were collected through targeted perception questionnaires, written reflections, and interviews, followed by quantitative and qualitative descriptive analysis. The results demonstrate that the transdisciplinary instructional design successfully fostered environmental agency, achieving a highly positive overall pedagogical efficacy score of 82.4%. Specifically, the intervention generated high student interest in local environmental contexts (86.7%), enhanced the comprehension of integrated concepts (84.2%), and demonstrated strong relevance to students' daily lives (85.5%). However, the evaluation also identified critical instructional challenges, including difficulties in collaborative group coordination (42.5%) and limitations in technology access (38.3%). In conclusion, integrating local geopark ecosystems into vocational instructional design significantly accelerates student agency and contextual learning, though future pedagogical frameworks must strategically mitigate technological and collaborative barriers to optimize workforce readiness and learning outcomes.

Abstract

Although Kemiren Tourism Village in East Java possesses a rich synergy of ethnohistory and biodiversity, these local wisdoms remain fragmented and unintegrated into language literacy programs. Therefore, this study aims to map the region's historical and ecological potentials through participatory mapping and analyze their feasibility for developing contextual bilingual (Indonesian-English) teaching materials. This research employs an exploratory case study approach utilizing participatory mapping methods. Data were collected through field observations, in-depth interviews with community leaders, inventories of historical sites and local flora/fauna, alongside environmental document analysis, followed by qualitative-descriptive analysis. The results reveal that the village holds immense ethnohistorical assets—such as cultural sites and oral traditions—alongside diverse, locally distinctive plants and animals. These integrated findings demonstrate high feasibility for formulating contextual bilingual teaching materials that successfully bridge local ecological and historical wisdom with language literacy. In conclusion, this research provides a practical instructional framework for educators to transform participatory mapping data into meaningful, integrated bilingual learning experiences that preserve local heritage while enhancing students' literacy competencies.

Abstract

Breaking through conventional disciplinary silos in vocational education requires innovative instructional designs that cultivate students' holistic competencies. This study investigates the implementation of a project-based learning (PjBL) instructional framework designed to empower vocational students' historical and environmental agency through English narratives at SMKS Sritanjung, Banyuwangi. Utilizing a pre-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design over an 8-week intervention, the research evaluated students across multidisciplinary competencies. Data were gathered through historical literacy and environmental awareness pretests and posttests, English presentation assessments, audio-visual recordings, and student response questionnaires, and were subsequently analyzed using paired sample t-tests and descriptive statistics. The pedagogical findings demonstrate that the integrated PjBL model significantly enhanced students' historical literacy (p<0.01, d=1.52), environmental awareness (p<0.01, d=1.38), and English presentation proficiency (p<0.01, d=1.45), coupled with overwhelmingly positive student engagement (86.3%). Ultimately, this study provides empirical evidence that bridging disciplinary domains through targeted instructional transformation effectively fosters vocational students' multidisciplinary agency, contributing a robust pedagogical model for vocational and workforce education.
