Abstract

Academic achievement is not only influenced by their learning process but also by emotional and societal factors. This study examines the students profiles regarding scientific literacy and emotional factors. Also, the correlation on both sides is studied in one population. This study used a quantitative survey research design for 132 students in 9 grade secondary school. The emotional factors were divided into interest, enjoyment, and engagement regarding science learning, while the scientific literacy used PISA 2015 test items. It found that the result of scientific literacy among students is in the low category, with the average in both of them being 28.34 out of 100, with explain phenomena scientifically as the highest competency achievement, followed by design and evaluate scientific enquiry in the second highest and lastly interpret data and evidence scientifically as the lowest achievement competency. There are interest, enjoyment, and engagement factors in emotional factors, and the general average among the three is 3.02 out of 5.00, which includes the neutral category. The highest emotional factors for science learning are interest, enjoyment, and engagement, as the smallest value. The correlational study of scientific literacy to emotional factors was also conducted and showed 0.835, which includes a very strong category. Therefore, this study implicated insight into the curriculum design and training program for teachers to find better ways to accommodate the emotional needs of students

Abstract

Global warming is accelerating and is primarily driven by high greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The food sector is a significant contributor to carbon emissions, particularly food production and consumption. Therefore, it is crucial to instill knowledge about low-carbon emission foods in students early by integrating this topic into curricular activities, such as the project for strengthening the profile of pancasila students (P5). This study aims to evaluate the improvement in students' knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors regarding low-carbon emission foods before and after implementing the P5 project. A descriptive quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental method was employed in this study. The subjects consisted of 33 Year 7 students in Banda Aceh, Indonesia. The findings reveal that implementing the P5 project, grounded in low-carbon emission foods, significantly enhanced students' knowledge, attitudes, and environmentally conscious behaviors. The project provided students with theoretical knowledge and promoted behavioral change through practical experiences

Abstract

Treatment of dissolved mercury within water sources is crucial. This study reported the utilization and efficacy of chitosan-sulfide immobilized on dead corals (Acropora cervicornis) as an absorbent for dissolved mercury (II). Sulfide ions were immobilized on coral particles coated with chitosan (coral-Chi). Chitosan and sulfide were either mixed or stepwise immobilized on dead coral particles. The amount of mercury absorbed by this treated absorbent (coral-Chi-Na2S) was studied and compared to the control (coral only or coral-Chi). The adsorption process is a bath method within a chromatography column. The absorbent characteristics and the amount of mercury(II) absorbed were characterized. The results showed that the highest percentage of adsorption used adsorben coral-Chi-Na2S, which was 71% with an eluent flow of 0.5 mls-1 within the absorbent column. The capacity of adsorption ion Hg2+ after prior eluting in the column for 24 h contact time was 0.4057 mg/g, 0.4017 mg/g, and 0.3746 mg/g in coral-Chi-Na2S, coral, and coral-Chi respectively

Abstract

Students' critical thinking skills at school have not improved. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of e-LKPD based on STEMEC (science, technology, engineering, mathematics, entrepreneurship, and character) in improving students' critical thinking, especially on Hooke's Law material, by utilizing the imagy tool. The research method used was an experiment with a one-group pretest-posttest design involving 34 grade XI students at SMAN 5 Banda Aceh. The results showed a significant increase in students' critical thinking after the learning intervention. The average pretest score of 38.82 increased to 80.44 on the posttest with an average N-Gain score of 0.677, indicating an increase of 67.7%. The majority of students 22 people are in the high improvement category, 9 people in the medium category, and 3 people in the low category. The STEMEC approach with imagy not only improves conceptual understanding, and critical thinking, but also helps students develop 21st century skills, including collaboration, communication, entrepreneurship and character skills. These findings prove that the implementation of STEMEC as a holistic and effective learning strategy can train students' mindset and character in improving their competence in the fields of science and technology.

Abstract

Higher education plays a strategic role in shaping character and providing learning experiences to acquire knowledge through effective learning by developing cognitive, affective, and psychomotor domains. The implementation of the merdeka belajar-kampus merdeka (MBKM) curriculum requires integration with local wisdom values to achieve the sustainable development goals (SDGs) through the development of 8 key competencies for sustainability. This research aims to analyze the implementation of environmental science lectures and measure the level of achievement of the 8 key competencies for sustainability among science education students in West Papua. Using a mixed methods approach, the research involves 30 seventh-semester students and one lecturer who teaches the course. Data collection methods include document studies, field observations, competency measurement using standardized instruments, and semi-structured interviews. Researchers analyze the data descriptively, both qualitatively and quantitatively. Analysis shows variations in the achievement of sustainability competencies, with the highest value in systems thinking competency (70.95) and the lowest in anticipatory competency (53.45). A gap exists in the implementation of learning, which does not optimally integrate local wisdom and the development of sustainability competencies. Therefore, developing an integrated curriculum considering the local context of West Papua, improving teacher capacity, and strengthening strategic partnerships are necessary to enhance the effectiveness of learning in developing the sustainability competencies of Science Education students
