Science and technology are rapidly developing in the 21st century which requires educators to facilitate real-life problem-based learning activities and the application of science that can stimulate problem-solving skills with science considerations. This research aims to determine the correlation of science literacy and concept understanding with students' problem solving skills and variables that are more influential in improving problem solving skills. The research sample consisted of 34 students of eleventh class of State Senior High School (SSHS) 6 of Malang who took Biology as an elective subjects. The variables measured in this study, namely predictor variables (science literacy and concept understanding), and criterion variables (problem solving skills). The data of the three variables were obtained from an essay test at the end of the lesson and then analyzed using multiple linear regression test. The results showed that the predictor variables (science literacy and concept mastery) gave a relative contribution to problem solving skills with a percentage of 72.1% and 27.9%, respectively. Science literacy variable is more influential on improving problem solving skills than concept mastery. The results of this study indicate a positive correlation between science literacy and concept understanding with problem solving skills.

The background of this research is the low science literacy of Indonesian students based on PISA results caused by non-contextual learning and conventional methods. This study aims to develop and validate an interactive multimedia program based on the Problem-Based Learning-Science, Environment, Technology, and Society (PBL-SETS) approach to train students' science literacy. This research uses an R&D (research and development) approach with define, design, develop, and disseminate (4D) model, which is limited to only the validation stage of development. Although many studies have shown the effectiveness of interactive multimedia in improving science literacy, the combination of PBL, SETS, and interactive multimedia still needs to be researched, especially in Indonesia. The results showed that the developed PBL-SETS interactive multimedia had very valid criteria, with an overall average score of 94.15%. These results indicate that PBL-SETS interactive multimedia is valid and feasible to be used as a learning alternative to train students' science literacy in school.

The 21st-century skills require education in Indonesia to train 4C skills (Communication, Collaboration, Critical thinking, and Creative thinking), which are fundamental parts of students facing the era of society 5.0, one of which is creative thinking skills. Teaching materials to support these skills still need to be improved. This research aims to produce e-book based on the local wisdom of Siwalan (Borassus flabellifer L.) from Tuban oriented to Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) to train students in grade X creative thinking skills on valid and practical biodiversity material. The validity of e-book was determined by three experts, namely two expert lecturers and one biology teacher. Readability test results measured the practicality of e-book. The results of the validity test obtained a score of 3.88, which is a very valid category, while the practicality test based on the fry graph was categorized as practical at level 10, suitable for the reading of grade X students. The results showed that the e-book based on Siwalan local wisdom is valid and practical for learning. Integrating contextual learning materials based on local wisdom can train 21st-century skills that foster students' concern for sustainable development.

Reflective thinking skills are vital for 21st-century life skills. This study examines the effectiveness of the Problem-Oriented Project-Based Learning (POPBL) model combined with the PEKERTI Worksheet in improving the reflective thinking skills of eighth-grade students at Junior High School 2 Alla, Enrekang, South Sulawesi. POPBL emphasizes real-world problem-solving, while the PEKERTI Worksheet—focusing on questions (PErtanyaan), essential concepts (Konsep Esensial), action plans (Rencana Tindakan), and initiatives (Inisatif)—enhances the learning process. Using a quasi-experimental design with a non-equivalent control group, the study involved 75 students divided into three groups. Data were collected via observations, questionnaires, and tests, and analyzed using ANCOVA. Results showed significantly higher reflective thinking skills in the POPBL group using the PEKERTI Worksheet compared to the POPBL-only and conventional learning groups (p = 0.000). These findings suggest that integrating POPBL with the PEKERTI Worksheet effectively supports the education curriculum in Indonesia and develops essential life skills in junior high school students.

Research on local wisdom-based biology education is increasingly important in efforts to enrich the national curriculum and preserve Indonesia's cultural heritage. However, systematic studies on trends and varieties of research in this field are still limited. This study aims to analyze trends in local wisdom-based biology education research in Indonesia using data from SINTA 1 to 3 accredited journals during the period 2013-2022. Using a systematic search method, 77 articles related to local wisdom from 22 journals were identified. The analysis shows that although the number of articles has increased from year to year, the percentage of publications focusing on local wisdom is still low. This study also identified a variety of research designs, development models, measured data, and diverse research areas. These findings highlight the need for increased attention to local wisdom-based research in biology education and the development of more standardized instruments to support the sustainability and integration of local wisdom in education. These results are expected to be a reference for researchers and educators in developing a curriculum that is contextual and relevant to local wisdom in Indonesia.

In recent years, pre-service teacher education programs have recognized the importance of equipping future educators with the necessary skills such as argumentation skills and metacognitive awareness. However, the extent to these skills in ore-service biology teachers remains relatively unexplored. This study aimed to explore the effect of argument-driven inquiry on pre-service biology teachers’ argumentation skills and metacognitive awareness. This study also investigated the correlation between argumentation skills and metacognitive awareness in pre-service biology teachers. This research was conducted as quasi experiment using nonrandomized control group pretest–post-test design with two classes. One class as experiment group (N=44) which participated in series of activities in laboratory work using argument-driven inquiry, and control group (N=44) which participated in the regular laboratory activities. The laboratory work focused on the topic of mendelian genetic. This research was conducted on the second year of pre-service biology teachers in the Department of Biology Education. Data were generated by administrating pre-test and post-test on argumentation skill using open-ended question and metacognitive awareness using Metacognitive Awareness Inventory (MAI). Result showed a significant difference between experimental group and control group in argumentation skills (p value= .016) as well as in metacognitive awareness (p value = .005). However, the correlation between argumentation skills and metacognitive awareness were relatively low (r= -.119). This research findings can be used as suggestions for policy makers and educational institute to integrate argumentation skills and metacognitive awareness in designed for professional development program in teacher training program.
