This study aims to assess the effectiveness of scientific literacy-based e-comic media in improving students' learning outcomes related to the topic of single substances and mixtures. A quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest approach was employed, where the same group of 25 students from class VA at SDN Sampangan 02 and class VB at SD Lab School UNNES were tested before and after using the e-comic media. The e-comic was designed to engage students and enhance their understanding of scientific concepts through interactive narratives and visual illustrations.The study found that the use of e-comic media significantly improved students' learning outcomes, as indicated by the results of a paired t-test (t = 9.766, p < 0.05) and N-gain analysis, which showed a medium level of improvement (N-gain = 0.584). Teacher and student responses were overwhelmingly positive, with 93% and 95% satisfaction rates, respectively. This suggests that e-comic media is an effective tool for improving students' scientific literacy and understanding of the material. The findings support the use of digital media in science education, particularly for engaging students in complex scientific concepts.

Research on sustainability literacy among high school students, particularly in the context of energy use and alternative energy, is limited, especially in developing countries like Indonesia. This study aims to fill this gap by developing and validating an instrument to assess sustainability literacy focused on alternative energy. Using the 4D model (define, design, develop, disseminate), the instrument was evaluated by two university lecturers and one high school teacher, achieving a validity score of 84.8%, classified as very good. A readability test with 10 students yielded a score of 91.8%, indicating easy comprehension. The instrument was tested on 70 students, and Rasch analysis, performed using Ministep software, revealed a strong fit with infit and outfit Mean Square (MNSQ) values close to 1.00 and Z-standard (ZSTD) values near 0.00. Reliability scores were 0.82 for knowledge, 0.84 for abilities, and 0.80 for mindset, indicating the instrument's dependability. Overall item reliability exceeded 0.90, confirming the tool's consistency. This validated instrument is a practical and reliable tool for assessing sustainability literacy in high school students, particularly in alternative energy education, and can support educational efforts aimed at mitigating climate change through enhanced understanding of sustainable energy solutions.

The character of caring for the environment and environmental awareness in children occurs from school culture, cultivation and learning in the classroom. This makes a positive habit in children or students. The strengthening of the character of caring for the environment in students will make it a habit for children to become responsible human beings and care about the environment at school. This study aims to describe the environmental awareness profile and environmental care attitude in State Junior High School 2 Kaliori. The research method used in this study uses a quantitative approach with questionnaire data collection techniques. The analysis techniques used are validity tests, reliability tests and descriptive statistics. The results of the study obtained information that the level of environmental awareness at State Junior High School 2 Kaliori received an average score of 78.03 including the category of high environmental awareness. Meanwhile, the profile of the level of environmental care attitude at State Junior High School 2 Kaliori received an average score of 62.84 including the high category. The level of environmental concern attitude in State Junior High School 2 Kaliori in respondents with a high category of environmental concern attitude was 31 people or 68.9 percent and there were 14 respondents with a moderate level of environmental awareness or 31.1 percent. From the results of this research, there are several limitations of the research, namely only focusing on the profile of environmental care attitudes and environmental awareness of students of State Junior High School 2 Kaliori. As for the suggestions for the next researcher, it is hoped to add several other factors that affect environmental awareness and environmental awareness in schools. If there are other factors that affect environmental awareness and environmental awareness, of course, the results are also different, especially with different subjects.

The ability to think creatively is crucial for improving students' learning outcomes. However, in reality, many students whose learning outcomes are low and do not meet the minimum competency criteria. Therefore, this research aims to determine the relationship between creative thinking ability and physics learning outcomes. The study employed survey methods with a correlational approach. The population of this study included 248 students from the XI MIPA class at State Senior High School 9 Gowa. The sample was drawn through simple random sampling, totaling 105 students. The instruments used in this research comprised tests measuring creative thinking and learning outcomes. Descriptive analysis results indicated that the average score for creative thinking ability was categorized as moderately creative, while the average score for learning outcomes was deemed good. The conclusion of this research revealed a significant, positive correlation between creative thinking ability and physics learning outcomes in elasticity and Hooke's law among the XI-grade students. This research may encourage teachers to create more creative learning environments.

The low level of students' scientific literacy is one of the problems that needs to be solved. This study aims to analyze the application of the Hinbiodiv-assisted PBL-STEM model in improving students' scientific literacy in biodiversity material in high school. The research method used is a quasi-experimental design with a nonequivalent control group design. The research sample included class X MIPA 4 as a control class totaling 37 students and class X MIPA 1 as an experimental group totaling 34 students. The data collected were in the form of increasing students' scientific literacy by distributing questionnaires to students. The data analysis of this study used the normality test, Walcaxon test, Man Whitney test, and N-Gain test. The results showed that the Implementation of the Hinbiodiv-Assisted PBL-STEM Model could improve students' scientific literacy in the experimental class with an N-Gain value of 0.79 in the high category, while in the control class with the conventional method the N-Gain value was 0.46 in the moderate category. So it can be concluded that the application of the Hinbiodiv-Assisted PBL-STEM Model is recommended for use in biology learning in high school to improve scientific literacy.
