Abstract

Background: The development of problem-solving skills and environmental literacy is a priority in climate change education. Socio-scientific issues-based learning supported by digital modules is considered relevant for linking scientific concepts with value reflection and contextual decision-making. However, empirical studies examining the effectiveness of integrating both approaches to simultaneously enhance these competencies remain limited. Objectives: This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of a climate change e-module based on Socio-Scientific Issues Teaching and Learning (SSI-TL) in improving students’ problem-solving skills and environmental literacy. Methods: A quasi-experimental non-equivalent control group pretest–posttest design was employed. The study involved 70 tenth-grade students at SMAN 8 Malang, who were divided into an experimental group and a control group. Improvement was analyzed using Normalized Gain (N-Gain), followed by Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) to test differences between groups. Results: The N-gain results indicated medium improvement in both variables, with higher scores in the experimental group compared to the control group. ANCOVA confirmed that the differences were statistically significant (p < 0.001). Conclusion: The integration of structured SSI-TL syntax within an e-module enhances scientific reasoning, value reflection, and environmental action orientation. The findings provide conceptual and practical support for developing digital learning resources in climate change education.

Abstract

Background: Inquiry-based Biology learning requires adequate pedagogical support to foster the development of problem-solving skills and creativity among pre-service teachers. However, in the absence of structured guidance, students often experience difficulties in carrying out scientific inquiry processes. Integrating scaffolding within a STEM framework offers a promising approach to support more systematic and interdisciplinary learning. Objectives: This study aimed to examine the implementation of Scaffolding Inquiry-Based STEM and its association with students’ problem-solving skills and creativity in a Microbiology course. Methods: A mixed-methods approach with an embedded design was employed. The quantitative component used a one-group pretest–posttest design involving 15 students (n = 15), while qualitative data were collected through observations, interviews, and documentation to enrich the interpretation of the findings. Results: The results indicate improvements in problem-solving skills, particularly in problem identification, strategy application, reasoning, and evaluation. In addition, students’ creativity showed enhancement across multiple dimensions, including curiosity, fluency, originality, flexibility, elaboration, and risk-taking. Conclusion: These findings suggest that Scaffolding Inquiry-Based STEM is associated with the development of key 21st-century competencies among pre-service biology teachers. However, the absence of a control group limits the extent to which causal inferences can be drawn. Despite this limitation, the approach demonstrates potential for fostering more structured and meaningful Biology learning in higher education contexts.

Abstract

Background: Although STEM plays a critical role in biology education, a persistent disconnect exists between Indonesian teachers' strategic knowledge and their pedagogical practices. Objectives: This study sought to examine biology teachers’ perceptions of STEM, their knowledge of implementation strategies, and their understanding of implementation challenges. Additionally, it assessed the gap between teachers’ strategic knowledge and classroom practices. Methods: A mixed-methods design employing a sequential explanatory approach was utilised, consisting of a quantitative survey of 94 high school biology teachers (purposive sampling), followed by semi-structured interviews. The 16-item instrument demonstrated reliability (Cronbach's α = 0.878). Quantitative data were analysed descriptively (means and standard deviations), while qualitative data were analysed thematically, utilising triangulation and member checking. Results: Teachers exhibited high knowledge of STEM implementation strategies (M = 4.22 ± 0.75), but reported moderate barriers to implementation (M = 3.62 ± 0.78), moderate self-confidence (≈ M = 3.16), and moderate to high STEM teaching practices (M = 3.52 ± 0.77). Interviews revealed that STEM was frequently defined as simple technology use; however, components such as engineering design, modelling, meaningful mathematics, and performance assessment were inconsistently applied, largely due to limitations in training, time, facilities, and access to technology. Conclusion: Practice-based professional development, a unified STEM framework for biology, and school support–including project time blocks and low-cost tools–are essential for translating knowledge into consistent classroom practice.
