The cognitive abilities of Indonesian students are still low based on The Learning Curve in 2013, so the quality of education should be improved. One of them with environmental-based learning. Most Indonesians live in coastal areas, and some use snails as alternative dishes. Therefore, snails in coastal areas can be used as a source of learning. Interest in reading Indonesian students is also low, so the need to develop an interesting book and easily understood so that students are interested to read it. So developed a Book of Popular Scientific-based Diversitas Gastropoda in Coastal Areas. This research is the early stage of development research, which is the validation of popular science books. The purpose of this research is to develop a valid popular science book. Validation is done with three experts by giving a validation sheet of popular science books. Validation data were analyzed descriptively categorization. Suggestions and comments from validators become the reference for product revisions. Validation complete when obtaining minimum category valid. The results showed coherence aspect; legibility; active and passive sentences; method; applications and implications; definitions and explanations; and other styles the device obtains very valid category. Aspects of vocabulary; avoid dubious words; and the format obtains a valid category. Based on the results of this study, the popular scientific books developed have met the rules of popular scientific writing that is interesting and easy to understand, so this popular scientific book can be used by the community and students.

This study aims to determine the effectiveness of project based learning model by using reused paper on neuron system lesson to students learning outcomes in SMA Negeri 1 Pemalang. This study used pretest-posttest control group design. The samples that were used are the third mathematics and scince major of eleventh-graders students (control class) and eleventh-graders of the fourth mathematics and science major (experimental class). The samples were taken by cluster random sampling technique. The results show that the learning outcomes in the experimental class are better than control class. The average of students? N-gain score in the experimental class was significantly different with control class and it was higher than control class (0,72 > 0,58), the average of experimental?s class psychomotor learning outcomes was classified in the very good category, the experimental?s class affective learning outcomes (environmental care attitude) was significantly different with control class and it was greater than the control class (82> 63). This result is supported by students' and teachers' positive responses of project based learning model by using reused paper. Based on this stufy results, it is concluded that the implementation of project based learning model by using reused paper was effectively optimizing students learning outcomes on neuron system material.

This study aims to determine the effect of students worksheets of 7E learning cycle on activities and understanding the concept of excretion systems at MAN 1 Jepara. The research method used was pre-experimental design with one shot case study. Population of this research was all the students of XI class at MAN 1 Jepara with the samples were XI MIPA 2 and XI MIPA 3 which were taken by purposive sampling. Research data in the form of student activities taken with an observation sheet and understanding the concepts taken with a test. Student activity data were analyzed descriptively quantitatively while understanding the concepts was analyzed by Wilcoxon and N-gain. The results of the study show that the average activity value of XI MIPA 2 students is 88.99% and XI MIPA 3 is 88.63% with the criteria of both classes were very high. The average results of conceptual understanding of students of class XI MIPA 2 is 78.67 with classical completeness is 87.18% while class XI MIPA 3 is 81.73 with classical completeness of 91.89%. The results of the analysis using the Wilcoxon show that the sig value. 0,000<0,05, means that there are significant differences between the results of the pretest before the application of student worksheet based on 7E learning cycle and posttest results after the application of student worksheet based on 7E learning cycle. The results of the N-gain test showed an increase in understanding of concepts in class XI MIPA 2 and XI MIPA 3 of 0.565 and 0.588 with medium criteria. Based on the results of the study it can be concluded that learning using the students worksheet based on 7E learning cycle influences the activity and understanding of the excretion system concept of the XI grade students of MAN 1 Jepara.

Lack of drug hazard knowledge becomes one of the drug abuse causes. Drug knowledge (psychotropic-addictive substances) will foster a negative attitude such as a rejection reaction towards drug abuse. Such attitudes may prevent or address drug abuse problems. That prevention needs to be done as early as possible by providing knowledge about drugs trough the school educations. This study would find the relationship between addictive and psychotropic substance knowledge with the attitude on drug abuse and how much that constriction in JHS students' attitudes. This research method is a survey method with an analytical observational design. The population in this study was all junior high school students in the Semarang North District with five classes (grade IX) as samples taken from three schools in the sub-district. The data collection measuring instruments used in this study is questionnaires and interviews. The results of this study show that more than 50% of students have high knowledge of psychotropic and addictive substances and have a negative attitude towards drug abuse. Data analysis results are obtained by a correlation coefficient value (r) of 0.971 and a coefficient of determination (R2) of 0.942. The R value indicates a positive correlation while the R2 value is how much constricting it is. Based on the results of the study, concluded that the knowledge of psychotropic-addictive substances with the rejection attitudes of drug abuse has a positive and very strong relationship. And as much as 94.2% of the psychotropic addictive substance knowledge is constricting in the formation of students ' attitudes towards drug abuse.
