Abstract

In this paper, a science literacy and technology course has been designed and implemented to strengthen the national initiative empowering scientifically literate Indonesian society. This paper is intended to evaluate to what degree non-science undergraduate students can perform this course. The diverse background of non-science students who participated in this study led to the challenge to evaluate their performance more comprehensively contemplating the nested structure of students’ department and faculty setting. In light of the hierarchical nature of the student data, multilevel modelling was used to conduct the analysis. The first level of analysis involved students’ performance and affective attributes measured using demonstrated science literacy assessment (SLA-D) and motivational beliefs (SLA-MB) respectively. Then, the subsequent level of analysis comprised demographic factors gathered from the institutional record. Findings demonstrated that the impact of demographic factors on the students’ performance of science literacy was not substantial. Different settings of students’ department and faculty level drove the association between affective factors and the learning process toward science literacy courses substantially. The multilevel approach controlled the equitable student assessment within the nature of students’ data structure. This paper suggests an implication of advancement regarding educational data analysis and examines the effectiveness of science literacy courses for higher institutions specifically for non-science majors.

Abstract

Contrasting approaches, principles, and previous learning experiences widely confront chemistry instruction. Therefore a comprehensive and precise understanding of the nature and mechanism of chemistry instruction is essential in attaining mastery of science subjects like chemistry. This study explored the determinants that affect students’ chemistry in tertiary education. This study utilized an explanatory sequential mixed-method research design wherein quantitative data is collected and analyzed. Qualitative data was collected and analyzed based on quantitative results. The respondents (n=253) were the students who took their chemistry subjects from 2016-2017, 2017-2018, 2018-2019, and 2019-2020. The study revealed that the type of school significantly affects students’ chemistry learning. Based on students’ responses, it was revealed that classroom dynamics, a supportive learning environment, the prospect for attractive compensation, poor study habits, non-aligned of academic track, and teachers are the determinants affecting students’ academic performance in chemistry.

Abstract

In the twenty-first century, there has been significant and rapid advancement in mathematics and science education. Comparing the educational systems of different countries according to international standards can provide valuable insights for improving educational quality. This study aims to investigate and compare the science and mathematics education systems of two countries, Indonesia and Hungary, specifically at the ISCED 2 level. The Indonesian curriculum used in this study is the most recent version of Curriculum 2013, updated in 2016, while the Hungarian curriculum used is the National Core Curriculum 2020 (NCC). This research is categorized as library research and applies the qualitative descriptive-analytical method. We searched several legal documents of curriculums from both countries in libraries, legal websites, formal institutions, and the archives of the ministries of education. After finding the relevant documents, the authors from each country translated, analyzed, and reviewed them thoroughly. According to the findings, several differences between the two educational systems might generate drawbacks. In Hungary, both science and mathematics curricula are empirical-based and involve activities, whereas in Indonesia, they start from new activities and are content-based. There are also several disjoint topics in mathematics between both countries, such as absolute value and quadratic equations. In Indonesia, science education is focused on biology topics as the main proportion of knowledge and is theoretical-oriented, while in Hungary, it is more varied in topics and is realistic and empirical-oriented. The Hungarian science curriculum is also emphasized on inquiry and experimental activities. To further investigate and compare the education systems, more studies are needed at every level of education.

Abstract

Sugar industry processes release large amounts of wastewater and pollution concentrations. This study focuses on environmental pollution produced by a cane sugar factory (Sampling Assalaya factory) with particular emphasis on the chemical properties of wastewater as an essential feature identifying water pollution in the study area. The study aims to analyze wastewater’s chemical features and disparity based on the Sudanese Standards and Metrology Organization (SSMO) standards. The systemic random sampling method collected twenty samples for each parameter (pH, Total Hardness, PO4, BOD, and COD). Analyses were conducted in the laboratory according to the standard methods for examining water and wastewater (USA). Results revealed significant variations in wastewater features at different sampling sites as pH values ranged between 4.55 to 8.39 and PO4 ranged between 0.097 ppm to 670 ppm in the selected sites. Results also pointed out that Total hardness ranged between 50ppm to 470ppm, BOD ranged between 15ppm to 390ppm, whereas the COD in 80% of the tested samples exceeded the SSMO standard (150ppm). The article concluded that these levels are highly exceeding the recommended level by SSMO. The leading causes of such alarming pollutant levels are related to the effluent of the Assalaya sugar factory in the study area. To reduce such effluent pollution levels, suggestions are made for the Assalaya cane sugar factory to treat its effluent by introducing appropriate technology and methods, such as anaerobic treatment. The Assalaya sugar factory ought to keep up with the transformation to green production as an integral part of its policy to achieve sustainability.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the scientific creativity of high school students on the static fluid in STREM PBL with an e-authentic assessment. This study used a mixed method with an embedded experimental design. This study involved 30 11th-grade senior high school students in Sidoarjo, Indonesia. Data collection techniques were carried out through pretest-posttest, interview, and observation. Pretest and posttest instruments consist of three scientific creativity essay questions with a reliability of 0.610. The results of the Wilcoxon test of p = .000, with the posttest being higher than the pretest, indicate a significant difference between students’ scientific creativity before and after learning. The effect size value of 0.87 indicates that STREM PBL with an e-authentic assessment moderately affects students’ scientific creativity. All indicators of scientific creativity have increased. The order of increasing the average scientific creativity score for each indicator is fluency (high) elaboration (moderate) originality (moderate) flexibility (moderate). Meanwhile, the order of the average level of scientific creativity at the posttest is fluency (very creative) elaboration (quite creative) = flexibility (quite creative) originality (less creative). Students’ scientific creativity increases because this learning makes students solve problems, carry out projects (design and create a product), carry out inquiry activities (experiment and investigation), collaborate with groups, and evaluate projects through self and peer assessment. Learning activities that can increase the level of fluency indicators are mentioning as many ideas as possible for experimental designs and product designs. Learning activities that can increase the level of flexibility indicators are integrating religion content into STEM (it is also better if integrating art content) and providing several problems and products from various fields. Learning activities that increase originality indicators give each individual or group a different project topic. Learning activities that can increase elaboration indicators are strengthening mastery of concepts and evaluating the work of oneself and others through self-assessment and peer assessment.

Abstract

Scientific literacy is one’s scientific knowledge to apply based on scientific problems. It is important for shaping generational readiness to face the challenges of the 21st century. Scientific literacy is necessary for learning Biology because it can support skills in identifying, explaining scientific phenomena, and generalizing scientific facts. However, the scientific literacy level of students in Indonesia is still relatively low, ranking 70th out of 79 countries with an average achievement of 396. Therefore, this study aims to precisely determine the scientific literacy ability of Biology students and its correlation with the scientific learning model that lecturers apply. The data collection technique was carried out by providing 15 multiple-choice Scientific Literacy questions in the field of Genetics issued by the Program for International Student Assessment (PISA). The research data were analyzed descriptively and qualitatively using the Miles and Huberman approach, which consisted of three processing steps: data reduction, data presentation, and data conclusion. The results showed that the level of students’ genetic scientific literacy was still relatively low, with scores of each class being observed at 32.63%, 42.97%, and 43.06%. Factors that indicate students’ low scientific literacy are the use of textual teaching materials, students’ misconceptions about the genetic material being studied, non-contextual learning, and low student reading power. Thus, improving the quality of teaching materials on integrated genetic material on scientific literacy and learning innovations that emphasize contextual learning and students’ reading power is necessary to increase scientific literacy as a form of competency needed in 21st-century learning.

Abstract

The discovery of problems linked to environmentally-friendly behavior and several antecedent factors motivates this study. This study examines the effect of environmental physics understanding, scientific reasoning, and environmental behavior intentions on environmentally-friendly behavior and investigates the mediating role of scientific reasoning and environmental behavior intentions. This quantitative study used an associative approach. The research population was high schoolers in West Sumatra. The research sample was 407 high schoolers in West Sumatra, obtained through convenience sampling. Data were collected by applying a questionnaire. The research objectives were answered with a structural equation modeling approach. In this study, environmental physics understanding, scientific reasoning, and environmental behavior intentions are significant predictors of environmentally-friendly behavior. The results show that scientific reasoning had a mediating effect on the relationship between environmental physics understanding and environmentally-friendly behavior (β= 0.098, t = 1.794, p-value = 0.006). The environmental behavior intention has no mediating effect on the relationship between scientific reasoning on environmentally-friendly behavior (β= 0.045, t = 1.843, p-value = 0.066) and environmental physics understanding on environmentally-friendly behavior (β = 0.018, t = 1.467, p-value = 0.143). This study has limitations where data are only collected in high schools in West Sumatra, so generalizations are limited. Cross-sectional data add a further limitation to it. Conversely, this research augments the current literature on environmental physics understanding, scientific reasoning, and environmental behavior intentions by focusing on previously unstudied environmentally-friendly behavior. Furthermore, this study offers a novel theoretical explanation for the relationship between realizing the mediating role of scientific reasoning and environmental behavior intentions.

Abstract

Problem-based interactive physics e-modules (Probinphys), accessed online, were chosen as an alternative method for enhancing high school students’ CTS. This study analyzed the efficacy of the Probinphys E-Module in enhancing high school students’ CTS and described student responses toward the Probinphys E-Module through the Blended-Problem Based Learning (blended-PBL) model. The Probinphys e-module was efficient in enhancing CTS if there was a significant enhancement in student CTS and the minimum average N-gain was in the moderate or consistent category. Student responses toward the Probinphys e-module were in the high category. This research applied one group pretest and posttest group design, involving 79 students in three groups from grade eleven. Before and after learning with the Probinphys E-Module, the three groups of students were given the same CTS test. The collected data were analyzed using Paired-Test, normalized gain (N-gain), and ANOVA. The results show that using the Probinphys e-module in blended PBL efficiently enhances students’ CTS, as indicated by the average N-gain for the three groups in the high category. The average N-gain is the same at 0.5 for the three groups or consistently. Student response toward the Probinphys e-module in blended-PBL is very high.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of applying the Ethno-STEM-Project Based Learning model about the concept of physics related to Lake Tempe on students’ conceptual understanding of physics, which is characterized by higher-order thinking skills and the level of misconceptions. The sample in this study was eleventh-grade students in senior high school. Students are exposed to local wisdom-based learning strategies integrating science, technology, engineering, and mathematics through group project assignments. Students are given a pre-Achievement Test (PAT) to determine their initial Higher-Order Thinking Skill of physics concepts in everyday life. Then after being treated through project work, they are asked to do a Post-Achievement Test (PAT). A three-tier test was carried out before and after treatment to determine the level of misconceptions. In addition, focus group interviews were conducted with several students to strengthen the pre and post-test results. Student responses to focus group interviews and the PAT’s open-ended questions were analyzed using the N-Gain Score equation. The data in the initial and final tests were analyzed quantitatively and qualitatively. Based on the analysis results, it was found that using the Ethno-STEM-PjBL model affected the understanding of physics concepts. It was marked by increases in higher-order thinking skills and decreases in misconceptions on several physics topics related to students’ activities around Lake Tempe.
