Abstract

The lack of ability of students in learning science in elementary schools and the lack of ability of teachers in providing supportive teaching media according to the characteristics of students who have difficulty causing the learning process cannot achieve the desired results. Thus, it affects the learning process, low learning outcomes, and student’ cognitive abilities. Therefore, this study aims to determine the types of educational game-based teaching media in science learning in elementary schools and the effectiveness of using educational game-based teaching media used in science learning in elementary schools. The method used was a systematic literature review using PRISMA diagrams. The database used for the literature search employed three digital libraries, namely Scopus, Springer Link, and WOS (Web of Science). For the selected literature to be relevant, the searcher used the keyword "educational games." In addition, screening was committed to obtaining scientific article publications from 2016 to 2021, which discussed the use of educational game-based teaching media in science learning in elementary schools. The search results for scientific articles contained 36 articles to be analyzed and synthesized. The analysis technique used was a narrative method by grouping the extracted data. The results of this study showed that the types of educational game-based teaching media used in science learning were the mixing method, literature review, qualitative, and experimental method. The use of multi-representation-based teaching materials has been demonstrated to be effective in the science learning process in elementary schools.

Abstract

This study explored the ability of college students to solve problems involving buoyant force materials. The method used was descriptive qualitative, with the research subjects of Physics Education college students at Halu Oleo University who have programmed the Basic Physics I course. The instrument used was a description of five questions and interview guidelines to explore quantitative findings. The results of the analysis showed that the overall problem-solving ability of college students was still relatively low, with an average score of 40.6. The low problem-solving ability of college students on the concept of buoyancy in expressing the ratio of the lifting force of objects in different fluids determined the lifting force of an object by applying an equation and selecting the buoyancy experienced by an object in a liquid. The difficulties experienced by a college student generally in understanding problems had an impact on completion due to a lack of mastery of concepts. Thus, they could impact appropriately.

Abstract

Leachate treatment is one of the main problems at the Banjarsari landfill because leachate is only accommodated without any processing and can pollute the surrounding environment. This study determined the concentration of leachate quality for several parameters tested (pH, BOD, COD, TSS, Total N, mercury, and cadmium) and compared it with the applicable leachate quality standards, determined the distribution pattern of leachate and determined the effect of the presence of leachate on the surrounding environment. The method used in this study was the grab sample method obtained directly from the monitored leachate body. The test results obtained the average concentration of leachate pH value of 7.55, for the content of organic matter in the leachate for parameters BOD = 91.5 mg/L; COD = 264.5 mg/L and TSS = 83 mg/L, for a total N concentration of 48.5 mg/L, and mercury (Hg) = 0.092 mg/L; and cadmium (Cd) = 0.009 mg/L; The leachate distribution pattern from the Banjarsari landfill followed the ground elevation, that spread in almost all directions where the leachate appeared to lead to irrigation channels and rice fields. Leachate impacted the surrounding environment, such as soil, surface water, and plants.
