Abstract

This study examines the local wisdom of the Madurese community in Pamekasan and Bangkalan Regencies, which has been preserved as an integral part of tradition and spiritual values. Local knowledge serves as a guiding framework for the management of both terrestrial and marine environments, contributing to environmental conservation. This research aims to analyze indigenous knowledge based on local conservation concepts and to explore its potential as a resource for biology education. A qualitative descriptive approach was employed, utilizing field study methods. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation involving communities that actively practice local wisdom. Data analysis was conducted to identify the forms and meanings of local knowledge related to conservation practices. The results specifically indicate that: (1) customary regulations govern the management of water springs, limiting exploitation and ensuring the sustainability of water discharge; (2) traditional agricultural practices implement cropping patterns and land-use strategies that maintain soil fertility; and (3) prohibitive values and customary rituals function as social mechanisms for preserving environmental sustainability. These findings reflect the integration of biological concepts such as ecosystem balance, resource conservation, and sustainability. Therefore, Madurese local wisdom demonstrates strong relevance as an ethnoscience-based resource for biology learning, particularly in linking scientific concepts with real-life contexts.

Abstract

Ethnoscience is one of the compulsory courses in the Science Education program. The implementation of Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) should be integrated into the ethnoscience course to enhance the awareness of prospective science teachers regarding the environment and sustainability. This study aims to analyze the implementation of the ethnoscience course program at a Teacher Training Institution (LPTK) in Riau Province. A case study methodology was employed, involving the analysis of ethnoscience course documents, observation and interviews with lecturers. The data were analyzed using qualitative descriptive methods based on the Miles-Huberman framework. The course implementation plan has met the established standards, and the majority of the learning outcomes align with the qualifications set by the Indonesian National Qualification Framework (KKNI). The ethnoscience course uses a research approach that examines the reconstruction of indigenous knowledge into scientific knowledge, though it has yet to emphasize sustainability literacy. Lecturers face challenges in accommodating the depth of content derived from student projects. Stakeholders should consider policies for collaborative teaching,like citizen science project in ethnoscience to support the optimization of achieving the course’s expected competencies.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the effect of a guided inquiry learning model based on E-Modules on students’ problem-solving abilities. The research was conducted at SMA St. Petrus Kewapante. The sample consisted of 20 students, all of whom were included in the study. This research employed a quantitative method, which is based on objective measurement of numerical data to test the formulated hypotheses. The test results were analyzed statistically to determine significance, with the expectation of obtaining objective, measurable, and generalizable data in accordance with the population characteristics. The findings indicate a significant improvement in students’ problem-solving abilities after the implementation of the guided inquiry learning model based on E-Modules. This is evidenced by a statistically significant difference between pretest and posttest mean scores (p < 0.001) and an N-Gain score in the moderate category (mean = 0.5024 or 50.24%). Furthermore, the results of normality and homogeneity tests show that the data are normally distributed and homogeneous, indicating that the parametric statistical analysis used is valid and reliable.

Abstract

Learning is a process of interaction between teachers, students, and their supporting elements, which are interrelated. However, in practice, students still have a low level of understanding of reaction rates, accompanied by suboptimal learning interest, resulting in less than optimal learning outcomes. One way to address this problem is to utilize engaging and interactive learning media, such as the chemical snakes and ladders game. This media is designed to help students understand the concept of reaction rates in a more enjoyable and meaningful way. This study aimed to determine the effect of using the chemical snakes and ladders game on student learning outcomes in reaction rates. The study was conducted at Waigete 1 State Senior High School using an experimental method with a one-group pretest-posttest design. Data collection was conducted through observation, interviews, and documentation, while data analysis was carried out using SPSS. Analysis techniques included a normality test, an N-Gain test, and a hypothesis test. The results showed a normally distributed data with a significance value of 0.096 for the pretest and 0.184 for the posttest. The N-Gain test obtained a percentage of 53 percent, which is categorized as moderate. Descriptive statistical tests showed that the data were centered around the mean value. The one sample test produced a significance value of 0.001 which is smaller than 0.05 so H1 is accepted.

Abstract

The low science literacy of Indonesian students and the lack of environmental awareness remain urgent challenges in 21st-century science education. Indonesia consistently ranks among the lowest in PISA and TIMSS assessments, while environmental degradation from plastic waste and used engine oil continues to escalate. This systematic literature review aims to identify the scientific foundation and potential of developing a Green Chemistry-based STEAM Eco-Innovation Module through Project-Based Learning (PjBL) as an innovative learning framework capable of simultaneously enhancing students' science literacy and environmental awareness at the senior secondary (SMA/SMK) level. The review was conducted through a systematic review of recent peer-reviewed literature, supplemented by additional sources focusing on engineering aspects. Four major findings emerged: (1) the STEAM-PjBL approach is empirically proven to significantly improve science literacy and 21st-century skills; (2) the integration of green chemistry principles into learning modules effectively cultivates environmental awareness; (3) the utilization of PET/HDPE plastic waste, wood sawdust, and used engine oil as paving block raw materials has been experimentally validated, including B3 hazardous waste encapsulation engineering and controlled thermal melting processes; and (4) road-based piezoelectric technology can successfully convert pedestrian kinetic energy into clean electrical energy. The Lontara Piezoelectric Paving Block innovation integrates the local Bugis-Makassar cultural identity (Lontara script) with cutting-edge green eco-innovation technology. Three critical research gaps were identified: the absence of a locally contextualized green chemistry-based STEAM module in Indonesia, the limited integration of waste management and renewable energy harvesting into a single learning module, and the scarcity of studies specifically measuring environmental awareness as an outcome of STEAM-PjBL interventions at the SMA/SMK level.

Abstract

High and uneven rainfall distribution in Serang City frequently leads to hydrological problems, particularly flooding. The objective of this study is to analyze the spatial rainfall distribution in Serang City from 2020 to 2024 using the Isohyet method. Secondary rainfall The dataset was obtained from three rainfall observation stations: Class 1 Serang Meteorological Station, BPTPH Sawah Luhur Station, and BRMP Ciruas Station. Data normality was evaluated using the Kolmogorov–Smirnov test, which indicated that all datasets follow a normal distribution, where the lowest p-value was 0.010 and the highest KS statistic was 0.195. The analysis shows that the average monthly rainfall in Serang City is relatively high (>100 mm/month). The highest average rainfall was recorded at the Station Meteorologi Class 1 Serang (152.7 mm). The spatial mapping results based on the Isohyet approach show that rainfall distribution within the study area is relatively homogeneous. However, higher rainfall intensity is observed in the western region (Taktakan), influenced by orographic factors, while the northern region (Kasemen) records relatively lower rainfall intensity. These findings provide important information for understanding rainfall patterns and supporting hydrological management in Serang City. This study provides important baseline data for flood mitigation and urban drainage planning in Serang City.

Abstract

Creative thinking skills are important in 21st-century science education, but the availability of contextual and empirically tested assessment instruments is still limited, especially for material on substances and their changes. This study aims to develop an instrument for creative thinking skills in the form of essay questions integrated with local culture in Semarang. The instrument was developed based on four indicators of creative thinking, namely fluency, flexibility, originality, and elaboration, and consisted of seven contextual questions. Content validity was assessed by five experts using Aiken's V index, which produced an average Aiken’s V value of .92, indicating a very high level of item suitability. The instrument was then tested on 175 junior high school students and analyzed using the Rasch Model. The analysis results showed item reliability of .98, indicating extreme stability in the items' difficulty hierarchy. All items were declared fit for the model with outfit and infit mean square values within the accepted criteria range. The response category structure analysis showed a monotonically increasing observed average pattern and sequentially ordered category thresholds, although some threshold differences were outside the ideal range. Overall, the developed instrument has good measurement quality and is suitable for assessing creative thinking skills in science within the local culture.
