type: item
description: The increasing discharge of dye-contaminated wastewater from the textile industry poses serious environmental and health challenges, necessitating the development of efficient, sustainable, and reusable treatment materials. This study presents a hybrid review integrating a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) and bibliometric analysis to critically examine research trends, material design strategies, adsorption mechanisms, and existing limitations of magnetic nanocomposite adsorbents for textile dye wastewater treatment. Following the PRISMA 2020 guidelines, 30 peer-reviewed articles published between 2018 and 2025 were systematically selected for SLR from Scopus and SINTA databases and 200-500 articles for bibliometric analysis. Bibliometrics focuses on Scopus data (to identify global trends), while SINTA is used to strengthen SLR in the local context of the Indonesian textile industry. Bibliometric mapping using VOSviewer reveals a growing research emphasis on multifunctional materials, regeneration performance, and sustainability, while the SLR highlights a dominant focus on binary nanocomposite systems and single-dye adsorption studies under idealized laboratory conditions. A significant research gap is identified in the integration of complex tungsten–tantalum oxide phases with magnetic Fe₃O₄ matrices. Addressing this gap, this review identifies the integration of complex tungsten–tantalum oxide phases as a promising future research direction to overcome current limitations in chemical stability and improved resistance to harsh textile wastewater environments. The findings provide strategic insights for the design of next-generation magnetic adsorbents with improved industrial applicability and environmental sustainability.

Implementation of the Physics Edupark Concept for Pre-Design of a Physics E-Book Based on Local Potential and the Quality of Physics Tourism Education
type: item
description: The implementation of digital technology has had a significant positive impact on education by expanding access to learning, allowing students to learn anytime and anywhere digitally. This study aims to observe and analyze the edupark at the Bukit Langkisau tourist attraction and the relationship between physics materials and the tourist attraction. After the analysis, this Edupark e-book can be developed. The results of this study indicate that printed books are still predominantly used in schools, and the use of non-printed books is still lacking; the average results of student knowledge and skills are still low; learning materials integrated with Edupark at tourist attractions are still rarely used; and have not been able to improve students' digital literacy. The conclusion of this study is the need to develop an integrated physics education e-book at tourist destinations. The Bukik Langkisau tourist attraction has the potential to be used as an educational park for learning, but has not been optimally implemented due to difficult access to the tourist location. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to develop an integrated physics education park e-book at the Bukit Langkisau tourist attraction.

type: item
description: This study aims to synthesize and map research trends related to the development of sensor-based linear motion kits integrated with a Problem-Based Learning (PBL) model to enhance students’ problem-solving and critical thinking skills in physics education. A Hybrid Systematic Literature Review (SLR) and Bibliometric Review was employed following PRISMA guidelines. Articles published between 2020 and 2025 were retrieved from Scopus and SINTA databases. Articles focusing on sensor-based kits and PBL in high school or university physics were included. After identification, screening, eligibility, and inclusion processes, 30 relevant studies were analyzed. Bibliometric techniques were used to identify publication trends, keyword co-occurrence, and thematic clusters, while qualitative synthesis examined pedagogical approaches and learning outcomes. The findings indicate a growing research interest in sensor-supported physics learning and PBL integration. Studies consistently report that sensor-based linear motion kits embedded in PBL environments effectively support real-time data interpretation, experimental reasoning, and collaborative inquiry, leading to significant improvements in problem-solving and critical thinking skills. However, gaps remain in the integration of low-cost, curriculum-aligned sensor kits and in long-term empirical validation. This review highlights the pedagogical potential of integrating sensor-based linear motion kits with PBL and provides evidence-based insights to guide future research and instructional design in physics education.

The The Moderating Role of Work Engagement in the Relationship between Workplace Spirituality and Innovative Work Behavior Among General Practitioners: A Meta-Analysis
type: item
description: This study aims to examine the moderating role of work engagement in the relationship between workplace spirituality (WS) and innovative work behavior (IWB) among general practitioners (GPs). A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted following PRISMA (2021) guidelines. A comprehensive search across Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, ProQuest, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar identified 16,800 records. After removing duplicates (n = 3,215) and screening, seven quantitative studies (N = 3,025 GPs) were included. A random-effects model was applied due to substantial heterogeneity (I² = 91.35%). The results showed a moderate and significant positive relationship between WS and IWB (r = 0.52, 95% CI [0.42–0.60]). A narrative comparison based on study characteristics suggested that work engagement may strengthen this relationship, with stronger associations observed in studies reporting higher employee engagement (r = 0.61) compared to those with lower engagement (r = 0.38). However, formal moderator analysis was limited due to the small number of included studies (k = 7). Subgroup analysis indicated no significant effect of GP workforce characteristics (p > 0.05). These findings suggest that workplace spirituality enhances innovative behavior through meaning and value alignment, but its effectiveness depends on work engagement. Strengthening both factors may improve physician innovation and support sustainable general practitioners (GPs) aligned with SDG 3.

Socioscientific Issues Integration in Science Education for Developing Scientific Argumentation Skills and Supporting Sustainable Development Goals: A Systematic Review
type: item
description: Socioscientific Issues (SSI) integration in science education connects scientific concepts with complex real-world problems while fostering students’ scientific argumentation skills. This systematic review examines SSI integration in science learning, its contribution to students’ scientific argumentation, and the role of digital learning resources.The review followed PRISMA 2020 guidelines and analyzed empirical studies published between 2020 and 2025. Literature searches were conducted in October 2025 using Scopus, ScienceDirect, and Taylor & Francis Online with Boolean operators such as (“socioscientific issues” AND “scientific argumentation”). From an initial pool of 800 articles, 36 studies met the inclusion criteria and were analyzed through thematic synthesis. The findings reveal four dominant SSI integration patterns: scientific discuSSIon and debate, problem- and project-based learning, evidence-based decision-making, and digital instructional media. SSI integration consistently strengthens structural and dialogic argumentation, evidence evaluation, complexity-based reasoning, and consideration of ethical and social dimensions. However, studies integrating SSI into digital instructional resources remain limited. Teacher competence, argumentative scaffolding, and contextual issue relevance were identified as key supporting factors, while limited instructional materials and curriculum pressure became major barriers. These findings provide an empirical foundation for developing SSI-based science instruction and digital learning resources that support scientific argumentation in 21st-century education.

Self-Regulated Learning-Based Approaches in Teacher Mentoring and Professional Development: A Systematic Review
type: item
description: The growing complexity of 21st-century education demands that teachers function not only as subject specialists but as self-regulated learners capable of sustaining their own professional growth. Despite an expanding body of research on self-regulated learning (SRL) in educational contexts, systematic reviews synthesizing SRL-based approaches in teacher professional development (TPD), particularly in relation to mentoring and advisory roles, remain limited. This study examined how SRL is integrated within TPD and its role in supporting changes in instructional practice. A systematic literature review following PRISMA 2020 guidelines was conducted, drawing on records from Scopus, ERIC, and ScienceDirect published between 2015 and 2025. Of 518 identified records, 27 articles met the inclusion criteria and were analyzed thematically. Three principal findings emerged: teachers’ SRL functions as a foundational mechanism for professional development; SRL capacity is enacted through instructional practices including explicit strategy instruction, cognitive modeling, reflective task design, and formative assessment; and the sustainability of these practices depends on relational and organizational supports such as coaching, professional learning communities, and educational technology. These findings offer a coherent framework for designing TPD programs that are reflective, adaptive, and oriented toward lifelong professional learning.

Analysis of Integrated Science Process Skills in Elementary School
type: item
description: This study aims to analyze the ISPS owned by 4th-grade students at one of the Public Elementary Schools in Cilegon City, in the subject of IPAS on the five senses material. This study used a quantitative descriptive method whose sample consisted of 5 male students and 9 female students. The instrument used was a written test in the form of an essay consisting of 5 questions to measure students' science process skills. The results of the study showed that students' SPS was still low, as evidenced by the average test score of 51, which means the results of this study still indicate low abilities in ISPS. This study identified that integrated science process skills in grade 4 students are still low. These findings provide insight to teachers to design science learning activities that can actively involve students in learning activities. Thus, it is necessary to implement a learning model based on inquiry so that students can be actively involved in learning making learning more meaningful.

Enhancing High School Students’ Critical Thinking in Physics through a Virtual Classroom Critical Thinking Model: Supporting SDG 4 (Quality Education)
type: item
description: Developing students’ critical thinking skills (CTS) has become an essential focus in 21st-century education, particularly in digital learning environments. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of the Virtual Classroom Critical Thinking (VC2T) model in enhancing senior high school students’ CTS in physics learning. A pre-experimental one-group pre-test–post-test design was employed involving 56 eleventh-grade students from two science classes at a private senior high school in Surabaya, Indonesia. Data were collected using a CTS test based on Facione’s indicators: interpretation, analysis, evaluation, inference, and explanation, and a student response questionnaire. Data analysis involved normalized gain (n-gain), paired-sample t-test, and effect size calculations. The results indicate a statistically significant improvement in students’ CTS after the implementation of the VC2T model, with a medium n-gain and strong effect size. In addition, students expressed positive response toward the VC2T-based learning experience. These findings suggest that the VC2T model has strong potential as an effective online instructional approach for fostering critical thinking skills in physics learning.

Random Forest-Based Soil Mapping to Support Sustainable Watershed Management and SDG 15 (Life on Land): A Case Study of the Curahkemadu Micro Watershed
type: item
description: Soil characteristics in the Curahkemadu Micro Watershed are influenced by volcanic parent material and other soil-forming factors, including organisms, topography, climate, and time. This study aims to analyze the spatial distribution of soil up to the subgroup level and identify the dominant factors that shape it using a machine learning approach with the Random Forest (RF) algorithm. Field surveys were conducted at 14 Land Mapping Units (LMU) in the Bocek and Donowarih villages, followed by laboratory analysis of the physical and chemical properties of the soil. Soil classification followed the United States Department of Agriculture (2022) system, utilizing Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and ArcGIS Pro for spatial mapping. The classification results showed the existence of two main subgroups: Andic Humudepts (172.73 ha) and Typic Humudepts (577.73 ha). The spatial distribution of soil was strongly influenced by slope, sub-landform, and elevation, with variable importance values of 40%, 35.7%, and 24.3%, respectively. The RF model showed high performance with good accuracy (overall accuracy = 85.7% and Cohen’s Kappa = 0.69). This research provides an important basis for the optimal and sustainable management of watershed areas.

Analysis of Prospective Science Teachers’ Practicum Competencies in Promoting Sustainable and Quality Education (SDG 4)
type: item
description: Field practicum skills are a cornerstone of the professional competence of prospective biology teachers, yet their long-term developmental dynamics remain underexplored. This study aims to map the profile of field practicum abilities among Biology Education students at the Mataram University over a five-year period (2020-2024). Using a longitudinal quantitative approach, data were collected from 120 students through a structured, expert-validated questionnaire and analyzed using descriptive statistics and the non-parametric Kruskal-Wallis and Dunn's tests. The results indicate significant fluctuations in competency achievement: the highest average was in 2022 (79.28; SD=3.13) and the lowest in 2023 (65.93; SD=0.78). The Kruskal-Wallis test confirmed significant differences between years (χ² = 80.67; p < 0.05), with specific year pairs (e.g., 2022 vs. 2023) showing marked disparities. These findings reveal that field practicum ability is highly susceptible to curricular factors, institutional policies, and external disruptions such as extreme weather. The implication is that the development of prospective science teachers requires a learning ecosystem that is adaptive, evidence-based, and capable of proactively responding to environmental uncertainty.

Analysis Morphological Characters of Chalcorana chalconota (Schelgel, 1837) at Soraya and Ketambe Research Stations, Aceh
type: item
description: Chalcorana is a genus of amphibians that consists of species complexes which are difficult to distinguish morphologically. The difficulty in identifying species within this genus has prompted taxonomic research to utilize a more in-depth morphological approach in order to determine a more accurate taxonomic status and to examine the grouping of the Chalcorana genus originating from two different locations. This study used a principal component analysis (PCA) approach by measuring morphological characters. Based on the results of this study, it was found that different locations did not affect the variation in morphological characters, and therefore, no grouping was formed based on locality

Land Use Mapping Using Sentinel-2 Imagery and Volcanic Hazard Zonation for Sustainable Disaster Risk Reduction in the Mount Bromo Area, Probolinggo Regency, Indonesia
type: item
description: This study examines the spatial relationship between land use/land cover (LULC), volcanic hazard zones, and soil conditions in the Mount Bromo area of Probolinggo Regency, East Java, Indonesia. It aims to identify dominant LULC classes, quantify their overlap with volcanic hazard zones, and provide a spatial basis for risk-sensitive land-use planning. Sentinel-2 imagery was classified into four classes: vegetation, open land, agricultural land, and built-up area, and the results were evaluated using a confusion matrix. The classification achieved an overall accuracy of 81.97% and a kappa coefficient of 0.82, indicating reliable performance for regional-scale analysis. Agricultural land was the dominant class, covering 121,477.01 ha or 71.62% of the study area. Volcanic hazard zonation shows that 5,439.86 ha or 3.21% of Probolinggo Regency falls within Mount Bromo’s low-, moderate-, and high-hazard zones, including 941.66 ha or 0.56% in the high-hazard zone. Overlay analysis revealed that 212.39 ha of agricultural land and 16.33 ha of built-up area are located in the high-hazard zone, while 389.45 ha of agricultural land and 9.34 ha of built-up area remain in the moderate-hazard zone. Hazardous zones also spatially coincide with Mollic Andosols, indicating that volcanic risk overlaps with productive soils. These findings show that productive land and settlement-related land use are still not fully aligned with volcanic hazard conditions, highlighting the need for risk-sensitive spatial planning and adaptive land management.

Enhancing Self-Regulated Learning in Distance Education through SQ3R and Concept Mapping: Supporting SDG 4 on Quality Education
type: item
description: This study examines the effectiveness of a dual-strategy intervention—SQ3R and concept mapping—in enhancing students’ comprehension and self-regulated learning (SRL) in an online distance learning context at Universitas Terbuka, Indonesia, contributing to SDG 4 (Quality Education). Using an explanatory sequential mixed-methods design, quantitative data were collected from 1.652 students through pretest–posttest measures in a one-semester course in the social sciences, followed by interviews with selected students and two instructors. Results indicate a statistically significant improvement in posttest scores (p < 0.001), although the effect size is small (d = 0.24). The strongest gains occurred in reading comprehension (SQ3R), with moderate improvements in concept mapping, while SRL gains remained limited. Qualitative findings suggest that students developed better reading structure, organization, and confidence; however, these did not fully translate into sustained metacognitive behaviors such as time management and reflective learning. This indicates that the intervention effectively improved cognitive and organizational skills but had limited short-term impact on deeper SRL habits. The study highlights the need for sustained scaffolding to develop SRL in distance education and supports the integration of structured learning strategies to improve learner autonomy.

Determination of the Effects of Exposure to Emissions from Chemical Industry on Health, Environment and Regulation
type: item
description: Rapid industrial growth in various regions of Indonesia has contributed significantly to the national economy. Pollution of air, water, and soil has become a critical concern when industrial activities are not managed in accordance with sustainability principles. This study aims to analyze the impact of emission exposure and operational activities of the chemical industry on public health, environmental conditions, and compliance with environmental regulations. A mixed-method approach was applied, combining quantitative and qualitative analyses. Quantitative data were obtained through air quality measurements and analyzed using linear regression and correlation techniques, while qualitative data explored regulatory compliance in greater depth. The findings reveal a positive correlation between increased emission exposure and higher incidences of respiratory disorders within the community. Environmental degradation was also evident, particularly in declining air quality and damage to surrounding vegetation. Although industrial practices generally comply with local environmental regulations, cases of Acute Respiratory Infections continue to rise. This indicates that regulatory compliance alone is insufficient to mitigate health risks. Therefore, stricter emission monitoring, improved transparency in environmental reporting, and enhanced community involvement are essential to support more sustainable and responsive industrial policies.

Effect of Botanical Pesticides on Inhibiting Colletotrichum sp. Causing Anthracnose in Avocado (Persea americana Mill.) In Vitro
type: item
description: Anthracnose caused by Colletotrichum sp. is a major postharvest disease of avocado (Persea americana Mill.) that leads to significant economic losses during storage. This study aimed to evaluate the antifungal efficacy of essential oil-based botanical pesticides derived from lemongrass (Cymbopogon nardus L.), cinnamon (Cinnamomum burmannii L.), and wild betel (Piper aduncum L.) against Colletotrichum sp. in vitro. The experiment was arranged in a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with nine treatments and three replications, using essential oil concentrations up to 1000 ppm in both single and combined formulations. Antifungal activity was assessed based on colony diameter and fungal biomass, and data were analyzed using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) followed by Duncan’s New Multiple Range Test (DNMRT). All treatments significantly inhibited fungal growth compared to the control. The smallest colony diameter was recorded in the lemongrass treatment (12.80 mm), with the highest inhibition rate of 85.77%. The lowest fungal biomass was observed in the cinnamon treatment (20 mg). These results demonstrate very strong antifungal activity of the tested essential oils.This study highlights the novelty of utilizing locally sourced essential oils as botanical pesticide formulations targeting Colletotrichum sp., suggesting their potential as environmentally friendly alternatives for sustainable postharvest disease management.

description: A landscape carrying capacity assessment serves as a critical tool for strengthening sustainable natural resource governance within socio-ecological systems. This study aimed to evaluate the carrying capacity status of the Sentarum Lake Catchment Area and identify key ecological and socioeconomic vulnerabilities. The analysis was conducted using a multi-criteria index-based approach aligned with the Indonesian Minister of Forestry Regulation No. P.61/Menhut-II/2014, integrating cross-sectoral data across five dimensions: land condition, water regime, socioeconomic conditions, water infrastructure, and land use patterns. The results showed that the carrying capacity was classified as “good,” with an index value of 78.00. Nevertheless, a phenomenon of pseudo-hydrological stability was identified, in which stable flow regimes (flow regime coefficient = 0.50) and high water availability (water use index = 0.50) masked functional degradation within the system. This condition was reflected in a high annual runoff coefficient (1.50) and increasing flood frequency (1.25), indicating declining infiltration capacity. These pressures were further exacerbated by the limited proportion of natural vegetation within protected areas (45.10%) and high socioeconomic vulnerability (poverty level index = 1.50). Overall, the findings indicate a fragile equilibrium in which apparent ecological stability conceals emerging hydrological and socioeconomic risks. Without adaptive and integrated management interventions, the system is likely to shift toward structural degradation. Therefore, strengthening landscape governance requires ecosystem-based spatial planning, nature-based mitigation strategies, and inclusive local economic development to enhance long-term resilience.

Detection of Adulteration in Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO) Based on Arduino with Machine Learning Algorithms through Dielectric Property
type: item
description: The mixing of pure coconut oil (VCO) with cheaper vegetable oils has negative impacts on both consumers and producers. This study aims to develop a method for detecting VCO adulteration using an ESP32-based dielectric sensor combined with a Random Forest classification algorithm. The research employed an experimental design using 225 samples, including pure VCO, canola oil, corn oil, and various mixture ratios, each measured with five repetitions. The results show that pure VCO exhibits the highest capacitance values (58.4–62.4 pF), followed by canola oil (44.8–47.8 pF) and corn oil (43.2–46.6 pF), indicating clear differences in dielectric properties related to fatty acid composition. ANOVA analysis confirmed a significant difference between pure VCO and adulterated oils (p < 0.05). The Random Forest model achieved an accuracy of 53–58% for 15-class classification, while binary classification (pure vs adulterated oil) reached more than 90% accuracy. This finding is discussed in terms of the effectiveness of dielectric sensing combined with machine learning for distinguishing oil authenticity. In conclusion, the proposed system provides a fast, low-cost, mobile, and user-friendly solution for VCO quality monitoring, with potential applications in supply chain control and consumer protection.

Bayesian Tobit Model for Handling Left-Censored in Water Quality Assessment: A Case Study of Sunda Strait, Indonesia
type: item
description: As an archipelagic nation, Indonesia relies heavily on coastal activities that may affect marine water quality, yet studies addressing this issue remain limited, particularly in the presence of left-censored data. This study aims to evaluate an appropriate method for handling left-censored data in water quality assessment using the CCME-WQI, with a case study in the Sunda Strait. A Bayesian Tobit model was applied to account for left-censored observations and integrated with the CCME-WQI framework. For comparison, conventional substitution methods and exclude left-censored were also used. The performance of approaches was assessed based on their ability to produce reliable water quality index estimates. The results indicate that the Bayesian Tobit model provides more robust estimates than substitution methods, as it incorporates uncertainty through credible intervals and reduces potential bias. The estimated water quality index ranged from 83.8 to 92.1, classifying the water quality as “good.” In conclusion, the Bayesian Tobit model is a more reliable approach for handling left-censored environmental data and improving water quality assessment. This method is particularly relevant for routine monitoring and can be extended to other fields with similar data characteristics.

Management of Archery-Based Sport Games to Improve Numeracy and Attention in Elementary School Students: A Sequential Exploratory Mixed-Methods Study
type: item
description: Competency-based learning transformation requires the strengthening of numeracy and attention from elementary school through meaningful, safe, and measurable learning experiences. This study aimed to synthesize scientific evidence on the management of archery-based sport games and to verify its practical relevance through primary questionnaire data. A sequential exploratory mixed-methods design was employed. The first phase consisted of a systematic literature review conducted according to the PRISMA guidelines. A Scopus search identified 170 records, which were screened based on publication year, article type, language, access status, primary data orientation, and relevance to archery, target sports, physical education games, attention, and numeracy integration. A total of 25 articles were included in the narrative synthesis. The second phase was conducted using a five-point Likert-scale questionnaire administered to 25 elementary school physical education students who had experience in archery courses. The results showed very high internal consistency, with Cronbach’s alpha = 0.945. The overall item mean was 4.47 out of 5, the mean total score was 120.80 out of 135 with SD = 10.81, and 96.74% of responses were categorized as positive. The safety and readiness construct obtained the highest mean score (M = 4.75), followed by attention enhancement (M = 4.49), motivation and engagement (M = 4.49), game-based learning design (M = 4.42), numeracy integration (M = 4.38), and implementation feasibility (M = 4.34). The integration of both findings indicates that archery-based games have the potential to serve as a safe, engaging, and measurable physical education strategy for training focus and embedding contextual numeracy activities. However, claims regarding numeracy improvement still require direct experimental testing with elementary school students.

Moderation of Learning Motivation on the Effectiveness of Problem-Based Learning on Elementary School Students' Science Literacy: Quasi-Experimental Pretest–Posttest
type: item
description: This research is motivated by the importance of scientific literacy at the elementary school level and the need for an effective learning model to improve it, by considering students' psychological factors such as learning motivation. Objective: This study aims to investigate the effect of Problem-Based Learning (PBL) and learning motivation on elementary school students' scientific literacy, and to test the interaction between the two variables. Method: This study used a quasi-experimental design with a pretest–posttest nonequivalent control group. The sample consisted of 60 fourth-grade students at Mekar Bakti Public Elementary School, Indonesia, divided into two classes (n=30 each). Scientific literacy was measured using a PISA-oriented essay test (scale 0–100), while learning motivation was assessed with a 40-item Likert questionnaire (α=0.884). Data were analyzed using a 2×2 factorial ANOVA and Tukey HSD follow-up test. The findings showed that: Students in the PBL class achieved higher scientific literacy than those in the conventional class (M=78.63 vs 68.57; p=0.001); Students with high motivation outperformed students with low motivation (M=76.67 vs 70.53; p=0.039); There was a significant interaction between PBL and learning motivation (F (1.56) =17.23; p<0.001); The post-hoc test results showed that the PBL-high motivation group performed significantly better than the other three groups. These findings indicate that the PBL model is most effective when student motivation is high.

Academic Self-Efficacy, Achievement Motivation, and Academic Resilience as Predictors of Science Learning Outcomes among Students in the Elementary School Teacher Education Programme
type: item
description: Science learning outcomes among elementary school teacher education students are determined not only by mastery of content but also by psychological factors that influence engagement, persistence, and academic success. This study aimed to analyse the effects of academic self-efficacy, achievement motivation, and academic resilience on the science learning outcomes of students in the Elementary School Teacher Education Programme. The study employed a quantitative approach with a correlational survey design. The respondents comprised 136 students. Data were collected through a four-point Likert-scale questionnaire, with 16 items for each variable, and were then analysed using multiple linear regression. Instrument quality indicated that all items were valid and reliable, with Cronbach’s alpha values of 0.951 for academic self-efficacy, 0.953 for achievement motivation, 0.962 for academic resilience, and 0.979 for science learning outcomes. The findings showed that the three predictors simultaneously had a significant effect on science learning outcomes with R = 0.909, R² = 0.826, and F(3,132) = 209.460, p < 0.001. Partially, academic self-efficacy had a significant positive effect, academic resilience emerged as the most dominant predictor, whereas achievement motivation had no significant effect after being controlled together with the other variables. These findings underscore that improving the science learning outcomes of Elementary School Teacher Education students should focus on strengthening academic confidence and learning resilience through challenging, supportive, and sustainable learning experiences.

Investigation of High School Students’ Conceptual Understanding of Light Waves: Survey in West Java
type: item
description: Conceptual understanding is key to learning. It serves as the groundwork that enables students to apply concepts and build higher-order skills. However, previous studies have shown that students’ conceptual understanding of light waves remains limited, and comprehensive data across multiple regions are still lacking. This study investigates students’ conceptual understanding of light waves in West Java. The sample comprised 189 twelfth-grade students who had completed instruction on light waves, selected using a random sampling technique. Employing a survey design with a quantitative descriptive approach, data were analyzed using Rasch Model techniques. The instrument used was a 29-item multiple-choice Light Phenomena Conceptual Assessment (LPCA) which has been validated and reported as reliable. Based on person logit scores, results indicate that 58.73% of students fall into the low-ability category, 26.98% into the medium category, and 14.29% into the high category. These results indicate that majority of students have not yet attained an adequate level of conceptual understanding and still experience difficulties in understanding light wave concepts, which may limit their problem-solving abilities. These outcomes can inform educators and researchers in designing instructional strategies and learning media to more effectively teach light wave concepts and thereby improve students’ conceptual grasp.

description: This study analyzes the integration of scientific knowledge and entrepreneurial character development among santri (Islamic boarding school students) through an integrated agribusiness model at two pesantren in East Ogan Komering Ulu, Indonesia. Using a qualitative case study approach with interviews, observation, and document analysis, findings reveal that both institutions systematically combine scientific agricultural practices—such as hydroponics, organic cultivation, and sustainable resource management—with Islamic ethical principles like amanah (trustworthiness) and muamalah fiqh. Three core strategies emerged: value-infused mentorship, reflective practice, and community-engaged learning, which collectively cultivate a distinctive "santripreneur" identity wherein scientific literacy, economic agency, and spiritual accountability mutually reinforce one another. Santri demonstrated enhanced entrepreneurial self-efficacy, innovation orientation, evidence-based decision-making, and ethical reasoning. The study concludes that integrated agribusiness models effectively internalize entrepreneurial character when grounded in experiential learning, science-based pedagogy, and value-based instruction. However, scalability requires addressing systemic constraints—including technological access, market linkages, and educator capacity—through coordinated multi-stakeholder support. These insights offer a replicable framework for Islamic educational institutions seeking to cultivate ethically grounded, scientifically literate, and economically resilient graduates capable of contributing to sustainable rural development.

Impact of the SVLK Policy Post UUCK on the Sustainability of Community Forests in Banten Province, Indonesia
type: item
description: The Timber Legality Verification System (SVLK) is a policy instrument designed to ensure the legality of timber forest products and sustainability of community forest management in Indonesia. This study aims to analyze the implementation of the SVLK policy in Banten Province, map the roles and interests of stakeholder, and assess its economic impact on the income of community forest farmers before and post implementation of the Job Creation Law (UUCK). The study used a mixed method approach (combining qualitative and quantitative) using structured and in-depth interviews to farmers and related stakeholders. The analysis used consist of policy implementation analysis, stakeholder analysis (actor grid), income analysis, and the Revenue Cost Ratio (R/C) analysis. The results indicate that SVLK implementation has not been effective due to limitations in human resources, budget, policy communication, and the absence of specific SOPs. The Forest Management Unit (FMU) is a forest farmer association formed with a common goal and has a management, which will undergo SVLK certification in Banten Province. The FMU and the Ministry of Forestry play the role of Key Players with the highest level of interest and influence. Economically, self-funded SVLK certification causes losses for farmers, while financial facilitation from the state budget (APBN) improves business feasibility but has not significantly improved farmer welfare. This study recommends improvements to the SVLK policy design through strengthening institutional capacity, regulatory consistency, and fairer economic incentive schemes for community forest farmers.

Flatline Anomaly Detection in Automatic Weather Station Air Temperature Sensor Data Using LSTM Autoencoder
type: item
description: The quality of air temperature data from Automatic Weather Stations (AWS) is crucial for meteorological analysis, climatology, and early warning systems. However, flatline anomalies, a condition where sensor values ​​tend to remain constant over a period of time, can degrade data quality and are often not optimally detected by conventional rule-based quality control (QC) methods. Previous research is also limited in specifically examining flatline detection, with most studies focusing on general anomalies and not integrating deep learning approaches with operational quality control systems. This study proposes a data-driven approach using a Long Short-Term Memory Autoencoder (LSTM-AE) combined with Level-1 QC. The novelty of this study lies in the use of a normal-only training scheme, anomaly threshold determination based on the reconstruction error distribution, and post-detection diagnosis to identify flatline characteristics. The methods include QC filtering, sliding window formation, model training, threshold determination, and anomaly detection. The results show stable model performance with an anomaly threshold value of 0.01177 (MSE). Of the 985,730 data windows, approximately 0.578% were detected as anomalies, indicating that flatline occurrences are relatively small but still significant to data quality. Most anomalies are short-lived and discontinuous, indicating localized sensor noise. This study demonstrates that LSTM-AE is effective as an adaptive flatline detection method and has the potential to be implemented as an automated QC module in AWS systems to improve data reliability.

type: item
description: Digital transformation in Islamic boarding schools (pesantren) presents new challenges in protecting information assets and student data privacy. This study aims to perform an information security analysis in a pesantren currently undergoing a crucial digital transition, aligned with the institutional vision to implement digital administrative services and science-and-technology-based learning. The research methodology integrates the ISO/IEC 27001:2022 information security standard as an audit instrument into the TOGAF ADM framework, limited to Phase D (Technology Architecture). This approach aims to establish a foundational infrastructure and critical technical governance that complies with security standards prior to the architecture implementation phase. A selection of 41 security controls was made through asset identification and risk assessment to represent the specific operational needs of the pesantren for effective mitigation. Research findings reveal significant gaps in identity management, backup protocols, and cryptography, stemming from a governance approach that remains reactive. This study concludes that strengthening information security through policy standardization, the implementation of Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), and data recovery procedures is urgent to ensure the integrity and sustainability of digital services. The synergy between regulatory compliance and resilient technology architecture serves as the primary determinant in protecting data sovereignty within traditional educational institutions.

Secretory Structure and Histochemistry of Leaf of Medicinal Plant Arcangelisia Flava
type: item
description: This study aimed to identify the tissue-level localization of major secondary metabolites and to describe the secretory structures of Arcangelisia flava leaves. Fresh transverse and paradermal hand sections of mature leaves were subjected to histochemical tests for flavonoids, phenolics, alkaloids, terpenoids, and lipophilic compounds. Flavonoids were predominantly localized in the epidermis, mainly in the form of flavones, while flavanones were specifically detected in guard cells. Phenolic compounds were abundant in both epidermal and mesophyll tissues. Alkaloids were mainly localized in idioblasts in both the epidermis and mesophyll and were present in trichomes. Idioblasts in the epidermis and mesophyll were likewise sites of terpenoid accumulation, while essential oils were restricted to the epidermis. Lipophilic compounds were concentrated in epidermal idioblasts and were particularly abundant in the cuticle. Laticifers were also involved in the accumulation of secondary metabolites. Glandular hydathode trichomes accumulated flavonoids, alkaloids, terpenoids, and lipophilic compounds, contrasting with previous reports of non-glandular trichomes in this species. These findings provide the first detailed histochemical characterization of A. flava leaves and highlight key secretory features relevant to its defensive and medicinal functions.

Spatial Pattern Analysis of Schmidt–Ferguson Climate Classification in Gorontalo Province Based on Rainfall Data
type: item
description: Climate change has altered rainfall patterns in Indonesia; however, spatially detailed climate classification in Gorontalo Province remains limited. This study aims to identify climate patterns using the Schmidt–Ferguson method combined with spatial analysis. The novelty lies in integrating data consistency testing, quantitative Q index analysis, and GIS-based interpolation to produce spatial climate zoning. This study uses monthly rainfall data from 41 consistent observation stations (out of 48 stations) during 2015–2024, obtained from BWS Sulawesi II and BMKG. Data consistency was tested using the Double Mass Curve method, followed by calculation of the Q index and spatial interpolation using the Inverse Distance Weighting (IDW) method. Results show that rainfall data are highly consistent (R² ≈ 1). The Q index ranges from 7.6 to 119, indicating diverse climate types: very wet (A), wet (B), moderately wet (C), moderate (D), and slightly dry (E). Spatially, wet climates dominate mountainous areas, while relatively drier conditions occur in coastal regions. These findings are applicable for crop calendar planning, irrigation management, and disaster mitigation such as flood-prone and drought-prone zoning. However, the study is limited by uneven station distribution and a 10-year observation period. In conclusion, Gorontalo Province exhibits high spatial variability of climate influenced by topography and geographic location.

Exploring Ethnoscience through Dodol Pangi: Context-Based Learning in the Soppeng Community
type: item
description: This study aims to explore the scientific concepts embedded in the traditional production of dodol pangi (Pangium edule) in the Soppeng community, South Sulawesi, and to examine its potential as a context for integrating ethnoscience into science learning. Using a qualitative ethnographic design, data were collected through participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation involving eight purposively selected informants. Analysis followed Miles and Huberman’s interactive model, revealing key scientific mechanisms embedded in each production stage, including detoxification through leaching and diffusion, heat and mass transfer, starch gelatinization, Maillard reactions, and retrogradation during cooling. The results show that the stages of boiling, washing, soaking, cooking, and cooling reflect empirically grounded scientific processes that are consistently applied by the community in producing dodol pangi. These findings indicate that traditional knowledge is not merely cultural practice, but also represents contextual scientific understanding that can be meaningfully connected to formal science concepts in learning. These findings demonstrate how local wisdom reflects contextual scientific principles relevant to everyday practices. In conclusion, the dodol pangi tradition has strong potential to serve as a meaningful context for ethnoscience-based science learning that supports scientific literacy and appreciation of local wisdom.

type: item
description: The development of functional meat products has gained increasing attention, particularly through the incorporation of dietary fibers to enhance nutritional value while maintaining product quality. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of adding 3% banana blossom flour (BBF) on the quality characteristics of spent hen meat sausages subjected to refrigeration at a temperature of 4°C over periods of 0, 7, 14, and 21 days. The experiment was arranged in a completely randomized design, with storage duration as the treatment factor and five replications. The parameters observed included moisture content, pH, texture, color (L, a*, b*), microbial counts, peroxide value, and sensory attributes during cold storage. The results showed that storage periods of spent hen meat sausages with BBF addition exerted a statistically significant effect (P < 0.01) on all parameters. During storage, pH value, redness, yellowness, total microorganism, and peroxide value increased, whereas moisture content, lightness, and sensory quality decreased. In conclusion, BBF addition extended the shelf life of sausages, allowing to remain acceptable until 21 days of cold storage, despite a gradual decline in sensory quality associated with increased peroxide values. Moreover, the utilization of BBF facilitates the enhancement of agricultural by-products as part of sustainable food innovation.

Climate-Resilient Vegetation Monitoring in Malang Regency Using Multi-Temporal Remote Sensing
type: item
description: Malang Regency exhibits strong topographic and microclimatic contrasts between northern (>500 m) and southern (<500 m), which drive distinct vegetation–climate responses. This study uses MODIS MOD13Q1 NDVI/EVI (February 2000–December 2024), Landsat 8/9 (2013–2024), CHIRPS rainfall, and BMKG stations, processed in Google Earth Engine with cloud masking and compositing, to quantify long‑term vegetation trends and vegetation–rainfall relationships. Sen’s slope and Mann–Kendall tests indicate significant greening in both zones (p < 0.01), with EVI trends steeper than NDVI, reflecting EVI’s greater sensitivity to biomass dynamics in high‑biomass canopies. Annual EVI–rainfall relationships are stronger in the Southern Zone (R² = 0.545, p < 0.001) than in the Northern Zone (R² = 0.413, p < 0.01), indicating that agro ecosystems in the south remain highly responsive to seasonal rainfall fluctuations despite the presence of irrigation, whereas montane forests are more buffered by groundwater and soil‑water storage. ARIMA time‑series models provide baseline rainfall scenarios that suggest only a weak downward tendency within historical variability and are interpreted cautiously given the strong influence of ENSO and IOD. These findings offer a quantitative basis for climate‑informed land‑use planning that simultaneously considers climatic drivers, irrigation management, and ongoing urban expansion in Malang Regency.

The Influence of Pregnancy Massage on the Level of Anxiety Facing Childbirth in Third Trimester Pregnant Women in Jakarta, Banten, West Java, South Sumatra
type: item
description: Anxiety among pregnant women approaching labor can lead to prolonged delivery, complications, and increased risk of maternal and fetal mortality. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), anxiety disorders contributed to approximately 15% of global morbidity rates in 2022. One of the non-pharmacological interventions to reduce anxiety is pregnancy massage. This study aimed to determine the effect of pregnancy massage on the level of anxiety among third-trimester pregnant women facing childbirth in Indonesia. This research employed a pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest–posttest approach. The study involved 180 third-trimester pregnant women selected using a purposive sampling technique. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon test after confirming data normality. Before receiving pregnancy massage, most respondents (78.3%) experienced moderate anxiety with an average score of 24.67. After the intervention, 91.7% of respondents showed mild anxiety with a decreased average score of 18.65. Statistical analysis using the Wilcoxon test revealed a significant difference between pretest and posttest anxiety levels (p = 0.000), indicating that pregnancy massage effectively reduces anxiety in pregnant women facing labor. These findings support the use of non-pharmacological interventions to promote maternal mental well-being during the perinatal period. Pregnancy massage has a significant effect in reducing anxiety levels among third-trimester pregnant women facing childbirth.

Spirobranchus sp. Density as a Biological Indicator of Coral Health Under Environmental Stress in Beurawang Waters (SDG 14: Life Below Water)
type: item
description: This study examines the relationship between the Christmas tree worm (Spirobranchus sp.) and coral health in tropical reef ecosystems. Field observations and statistical analyses were conducted to evaluate worm abundance and its association with coral condition. The results showed a strong association (Phi coefficient = 0.79) between high worm density and degraded coral health. Juvenile Spirobranchus sp. preferentially settle on healthy coral substrates, while adult individuals may contribute to surface abrasion and localized lesions through opercular movement. Exposed worm tubes can facilitate turf algae colonization, inhibiting coral recovery. Environmental parameters, including temperature, pH, salinity, visibility, and current velocity, influence coral condition and worm distribution. Elevated and localized temperature anomalies and reduced water flow were associated with increased coral stress and algal growth. These findings indicate that Spirobranchus sp. may contribute to coral degradation under high population density. This study supports Sustainable Development Goal 14 (Life Below Water) by highlighting the potential of Spirobranchus sp. density as a practical indicator for coral reef monitoring and conservation.

Computational Social Science Approach in Measuring Intra-Religious Tolerance Based on Big Data
type: item
description: The digital transformation of contemporary society has reshaped religious authority, identity construction, and intra-religious interaction. Social media platforms now function as primary arenas for theological negotiation, organizational affiliation, and discursive contestation within religious communities. In this context, intra-religious tolerance—the capacity to accept doctrinal, interpretive, and organizational diversity within the same religious tradition—has become increasingly mediated by algorithmic systems and digitally structured communication environments. Traditional survey-based and ethnographic approaches face limitations in capturing large-scale, real-time patterns of tolerance and polarization. This study develops a comprehensive conceptual framework for measuring intra-religious tolerance through a computational social science approach grounded in big data analytics. Using a qualitative research design based on systematic literature review (2016–2025), thematic synthesis, and conceptual integration, the study bridges scholarship in computational social science, big data methodologies, sociology of religion, and social psychology. The findings propose a multidimensional tolerance model encompassing cognitive, affective, behavioral, and algorithmic-structural dimensions. The article introduces a Big Data-Based Intra-Religious Tolerance Index (IRIT Index) grounded in digital trace indicators such as sentiment polarity, interaction diversity, network modularity, and hostility frequency. The framework contributes theoretically by integrating macro-sociological and micro-psychological theories within computational measurement paradigms, and methodologically by advancing qualitative conceptual modeling within data-intensive research. Ethical considerations, epistemological challenges, and implications for digital governance are discussed.

Enhancing Quality Education: The Synergy of Culturally Responsive Teaching and Student Interest on Learning Outcomes in Elementary Schools
type: item
description: This study examines the impact of Culturally Responsive Teaching (CRT) and learning interest on the mathematics learning outcomes of fifth-grade students, focusing on the perimeter and area of plane figures. Aimed at addressing passive engagement in conventional methods, this quasi-experimental research employed a 2x2 factorial design with 42 students. Data were collected via learning interest questionnaires and mathematics tests, then analyzed using Independent Sample T-Tests and Two-Way ANOVA. The results demonstrate that CRT significantly improves overall mathematics learning outcomes (p = 0.000). Specifically, CRT has a significant positive effect on students with high learning interest (p = 0.008) with a mean difference of 13.45 points, and on those with low learning interest (p = 0.000) with a mean difference of 12.15 points. Furthermore, a significant interaction exists between the teaching approach and learning interest (p = 0.043). These findings suggest that CRT effectively enhances outcomes across different interest levels by integrating local culture, such as the Jam Gadang, into the Merdeka Curriculum. This approach promotes inclusive, contextual, and meaningful learning in elementary education.

Enhancing Students’ Conceptual Understanding of Elasticity and Hooke’s Law Through PhET-Supported Guided Inquiry Learning: A Constructivist and Cognitive Load Perspective
type: item
description: The rapid transformation of science education in the digital era calls for pedagogical innovations that promote deep conceptual understanding rather than rote memorization. This study aims to investigate the effect of integrating PhET interactive simulations into a guided inquiry learning model on students’ conceptual understanding of elasticity and Hooke’s Law. A quasi-experimental pretest–posttest control group design was employed with 55 eleventh-grade science students at SMA Frater Don Bosco Lewoleba, Indonesia. The experimental group experienced PhET-supported guided inquiry, while the control group received guided inquiry instruction with real demonstration tools. Statistical analysis revealed that students in the experimental group achieved significantly higher posttest scores than those in the control group (t(53) = 2.89, p = 0.01), with a medium-to-high effect size (Cohen’s d = 0.67). The findings suggest that PhET interactive simulations function as cognitive scaffolds by visualizing abstract physical phenomena, reducing extraneous cognitive load, and supporting conceptual reconstruction during inquiry activities. These results highlight the pedagogical value of embedding digital simulations within inquiry-based physics instruction to enhance students’ conceptual understanding and foster meaningful learning in abstract scientific domains.

description: Road roughness measurement using the International Roughness Index (IRI) plays a critical role in road asset management, influencing maintenance prioritization and budget allocation. However, discrepancies between instruments may introduce bias without proper calibration. This study aims to analyze the calibration and validation of the Hawkeye 2000 as a Digital Laser Profiler for IRI measurement based on SNI 3426:2022. Calibration was conducted using a Walking Profilometer as the reference instrument, followed by validation on five test segments (SP1–SP5) with lengths of 100–500 meters under three speed variations (40, 50, and 60 km/h). The results show that the Hawkeye 2000 meets the requirements of SNI 3426:2022, with coefficients of determination (R²) of 0.9819 (left), 0.9850 (right), and 0.9820 (combined), indicating high accuracy. The coefficient of variation (CV) ranges from 0.0159 to 0.0241 (<5%), reflecting high precision. Calibration parameters (A = 0.9956; B = −0.0093) are within acceptable limits. The instrument also demonstrates consistent performance across different speeds. In conclusion, the Hawkeye 2000 is reliable for field IRI measurement, although further studies are needed to consider broader road conditions and external factors.

Development of a Deep Learning Assessment Instrument in Senior High School Chemistry Education Using the Rasch Model to Support SDG 4: Quality Education
type: item
description: This study aims to develop a valid and reliable assessment instrument for the application of deep learning in high school chemistry instruction. The development of the instrument is based on Wilson’s Four Building Blocks approach (2005), which includes construct maps, items, item scores, and measures. The study was conducted with 271 twelfth-grade students from three public high schools in West Sumatra, selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using a student perception questionnaire designed based on the four pillars of deep learning implementation: graduate profile dimensions, learning principles, learning experiences, and learning frameworks. Content validity was analyzed using Aiken’s V, while empirical validity and reliability were tested using the Rasch Model. The results showed an average Aiken’s V value of 0.90, indicating excellent content validity. Rasch analysis yielded a respondent reliability of 0.97 and an item reliability of 0.95, with fit statistics within the ideal range and supporting construct unidimensionality. From the initial 116 items, the final instrument consists of 46 items that passed through a rigorous empirical selection process to ensure high measurement quality. Thus, this instrument is suitable for evaluating the level of deep learning implementation at the elementary to intermediate levels in high school chemistry education.

Energy Consumption and Charging Infrastructure Analysis for Electric Bus Deployment in Urban Transportation Systems
type: item
description: The electrification of urban public transportation has become a key strategy for reducing energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions while improving overall system efficiency. This study develops a comprehensive modeling framework to evaluate the energy consumption and charging infrastructure requirements of electric bus fleets operating in urban environments, incorporating key operational parameters such as travel distance (126 km/day), vehicle energy efficiency (1.2–1.5 kWh/km), fleet size (5–30 buses), and regenerative braking efficiency (25%). The results indicate that a single electric bus consumes approximately 151.2 kWh/day under typical operating conditions, which can be reduced to 113.4 kWh/day through regenerative braking, representing a 25% improvement. At the fleet level, electricity demand increases proportionally, reaching 0.76 MWh/day (5 buses), 1.51 MWh/day (10 buses), 2.27 MWh/day (15 buses), and 3.02 MWh/day (20 buses). Furthermore, fast-charging systems with a capacity of 150 kW can deliver up to 300 kWh within 2 hours but may introduce peak load demands of up to 0.75 MW. These findings highlight the importance of integrated energy modeling, smart charging strategies, and grid-aware planning

type: item
description: This study aimed to evaluate the agronomic traits and yield performance of several promising pigmented rice lines, including red and black rice, grown in medium-lowland paddy fields. The research was conducted from March to June 2025 at an altitude of 402 meters above sea level in Tampak Siring Village, Batukliang District, Central Lombok Regency. The experimental method used was a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) consisting of 21 treatments, including 11 red rice lines, 4 black rice lines, and 4 parental lines (IPB3S, Situ Patenggang, Baas Selem, and the red rice promising line F2BC4P19-36), along with 2 check varieties, Impago Unram 1 and IR64. Each treatment was replicated three times, resulting in a total of 63 experimental units. The observed data were analyzed using analysis of variance (ANOVA), and significant differences among treatments were further tested using Duncan’s Multiple Range Test (DMRT) at a 5% significance level. The results showed that the agronomic performance of both red and black rice lines exhibited medium maturity, with flowering time ranging from 83 to 93 days after sowing and harvesting time from 120 to 129 days after sowing. The number of productive tillers ranged from 12 to 19 tillers, panicle length ranged from 23 to 27 cm, the number of filled grains per panicle ranged from 130 to 147 grains, and grain weight per clump ranged from 33 to 41 grams. The highest grain yield was recorded in the red rice line G-2M (F7 IPB3S/F2BC4P19-63/FAT/F2BC44P19-63-PD3/15) at 4.99 t/ha, which was higher than its parental lines IPB3S (G1-6IPB3S) at 4.31 t/ha and GH Merah (G-20GHBM) at 3.83 t/ha. Among black rice lines, G-12H (F11BLK.SP/BS 2/1/1/P4) yielded 4.42 t/ha, compared to Baas Selem (G-18BS) at 3.86 t/ha, Situ Patenggang (G-17SP) at 4.63 t/ha, and the check variety IR64 (G-21IR64) at 3.60 t/ha.

Bioacoustic Spectral Profiling of the Endangered Salmon-Crested Cockatoo (Cacatua moluccensis) Using Fast Fourier Transform for Conservation Monitoring
type: item
description: The endangered Salmon-crested Cockatoo (C. moluccensis) is an endangered species endemic to Maluku and faces serious pressures due to habitat loss and illegal trade. As a species that relies heavily on vocal communication, bioacoustic analysis offers an effective, non-invasive approach to support monitoring and conservation. This study aims to analyze and characterize the spectral profile of Salmon-crested Cockatoo (C. moluccensis) vocalizations using the FFT algorithm. Voice recordings were conducted on individuals in their natural and captive habitats using a Zoom H5 Handy recorder. Audio data were processed through noise filtering, normalization, and segmentation stages before being analyzed using computational programming-based FFT to obtain the main spectral parameters. The results show that Salmon-crested Cockatoo (C. moluccensis) vocalizations have a consistent spectral structure with the main parameters being dominant frequency, bandwidth, spectral centroid, and amplitude. Spectral analysis shows variations in frequency characteristics influenced by environmental and individual conditions. The dominant frequency of Salmon-crested Cockatoo (C. moluccensis) behavior in its natural habitat was 1981 Hz, while in captivity it was 2497.9 Hz, both of which are within the main frequency range of ± 1500 – 4000 Hz. These different conditions show that frequency alone is not enough to explain behavior, but must be combined with context (call patterns, social interactions, and other behavioral expressions). The FFT method proved effective in identifying and characterizing vocalization patterns quantitatively. These findings indicate that FFT-based bioacoustic analysis has the potential to be developed as a non-invasive monitoring tool to support the conservation and population management of endangered endemic bird species.

type: item
description: This study aims to analyze the implementation of Product-Based Learning (ProdBL) integrated with peer assessment in a bakery practicum and its contribution to student learning interest. The study employed a pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest approach involving 20 third-semester students of the Culinary Education Study Program. Data were collected using a validated learning interest questionnaire and supported by classroom observations and student reflections. The results of the paired sample t-test showed a significant difference between pretest and posttest scores (t = -2.816, p = 0.011 < 0.05), indicating an increase in student learning interest. The mean score improved from 31.15 in the pretest to 37.65 in the posttest. Qualitative findings revealed that students became more active, confident, and collaborative during the practicum process. The use of watermelon rind as food waste and local palm sugar contributed to meaningful and contextual learning experiences. These findings suggest that the integration of ProdBL and peer assessment can enhance student learning interest and support sustainability-oriented vocational education.

type: item
description: This study aims to test the effectiveness of using e-books on phase equilibrium based on multiple representations in improving students’ critical thinking skills. The study design is non-randomized because subjects were not randomly assigned to the experimental and control groups. Both groups were given different treatments to observe the intervention’s effect on critical thinking skills. The experimental group received instruction using an e-book based on multiple representations, while the control group used conventional learning media, namely printed textbooks. The sample used in this study consisted of students enrolled in the Physical Chemistry II course in the Chemistry Education program at the Universitas Jambi, with Class B serving as the experimental group and Class A as the control group. The instrument used in this study was a critical thinking skills test designed to measure students’ critical thinking abilities, both before and after the implementation of the multiple-representation-based e-book. The results of the hypothesis test using ANCOVA yielded a significance value of 0.00, which is less than 0.05. Based on the research results, it can be concluded that the implementation of a multiple-representation-based e-book on phase equilibrium significantly improves students’ critical thinking skills.

Exploration of Endophytic Fungi from Corn in North Sumatra Indonesia and Their Potential as Entomopathogens
type: item
description: Entomopathogenic fungi are one of the biological agents that play an important role in controlling insect pests. In addition to being obtained from infected insects and the rhizosphere, this group can also associate as endophytes in plant tissues. This study aims to explore endophytic fungi originating from corn (Zea mays L.) in North Sumatra and evaluate their entomopathogenic potential against insects. Plant samples were collected from corn production centers in the lowlands and middlelands of Deli Serdang and Serdang Bedagai Regencies using a purposive sampling method. Isolation was carried out from healthy plant tissues (roots, stems, and leaves), followed by a pathogenicity test using the insect baiting method against Tenebrio molitor larvae. A total of 59 endophytic fungal isolates were successfully obtained, of which 19 isolates showed pathogenic activity against T. molitor. Isolate EK2_23 (Beauveria sp.) showed the highest performance with mortality and mycosis of 85% and 100%, respectively. Morphological identification revealed the presence of four main genera: Beauveria, Metarhizium, Aspergillus, and Trichoderma. This finding confirms that corn endophytic fungi have the potential to be a prospective source of local biological agents for development as mycoinsecticides to control major corn pests.

type: item
description: This study aimed to develop and analyze the validity, practicality, and effectiveness of Canva-based Interactive Educational Videos to improve the mathematical abilities of children aged 5–6 years in kindergarten learning. The novelty of this research lies in the integration of animated visualization, audio narration, interactive quizzes, and self-assessment features into a Canva-based numeracy learning media specifically designed for early childhood education using the ADDIE development model. This research employed the Research and Development (R&D) method with the ADDIE model consisting of Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation stages. The research subjects consisted of 20 children aged 5–6 years in Group B at Humhaz Kindergarten, West Pasaman, Indonesia. Data were collected through observation, interviews, questionnaires, documentation, and pretest-posttest tests, then analyzed using descriptive statistics and N-Gain analysis. The results showed that the developed media obtained a validity score of 93.3% from material experts and 95.8% from media experts, both categorized as very valid. The practicality test results reached 95% in the small-group trial and 100% in the large-group trial, indicating that the media were very practical and easy to implement in classroom learning. Furthermore, the average score increased from 19.15 in the pretest to 25.1 in the posttest, with an N-Gain value of 0.5350 categorized as moderate improvement, indicating that the media were sufficiently effective in improving children’s mathematical abilities. However, this study was limited to one kindergarten with a relatively small sample size and short implementation duration. Practically, the developed media can be applied by PAUD/TK teachers as an interactive digital learning medium to support numeracy instruction through projector- or device-assisted classroom activities that are more engaging and developmentally appropriate for early childhood learners.

Enhancing Malaria Diagnosis for Sustainable Development Goal 3: A Comparative Study of Image Denoising Techniques
type: item
description: Malaria diagnosis accuracy depends on microscopic image quality, often compromised by noise. This study comprehensively evaluates classical denoising (morphological, median, bilateral filters) against deep learning architectures (DnCNN, Autoencoder, U-Net) for malaria parasite images. Using the Cell Images for Detecting Malaria dataset with synthetic Gaussian, salt-and-pepper, and mixed noise, experiments measured PSNR, SSIM, and processing time. Results indicate U-Net achieved superior performance (PSNR 36.69 dB, SSIM 0.9577), significantly outperforming Autoencoder (PSNR 26.12 dB) and classical methods (PSNR 23.14 dB). The baseline DnCNN architecture did not achieve competitive performance (PSNR 8.42 dB), indicating that domain-specific parameter tuning and data normalization adjustments are necessary for effective application to microscopic imaging. Autoencoder demonstrated the highest computational efficiency (1.64 ms per image), though the 10.57 dB PSNR gap relative to U-Net suggests that the quality trade-off may limit its suitability in accuracy-critical diagnostic scenarios. U-Net best preserved morphological details crucial for diagnosis and is recommended as the primary choice for malaria diagnostic systems prioritizing accuracy, while Autoencoder represents the most computationally efficient alternative for resource-constrained deployment. These findings support developing robust computer-aided diagnosis systems and contribute a comprehensive quantitative benchmark for denoising methods in malaria microscopy.

Toxicity, Antioxidant and Antibacterial Test of Ethyl Acetate Extract of Jamblang Leaves (Syzygium cumini L.)
type: item
description: Jamblang (Syzygium cumini L.) is a plant from the Myrtaceae family that is used as a traditional medicine, especially its leaves. This study aims to determine the toxicity, antioxidant, and antibacterial activities of the ethyl acetate extract of jamblang leaves and to identify its secondary metabolite compounds. The toxicity test using the Brine Shrimp Lethality Test (BSLT) method showed that the ethyl acetate extract of jamblang leaves had an LC₅₀ value of 174.602 ppm, which falls into the toxic category. The antioxidant test using the DPPH method showed an IC₅₀ value of 4.268 µg/mL, which is classified as strong, although still weaker than vitamin C (IC₅₀ = 2.437 µg/mL). The antibacterial test against Streptococcus mutans using the disc diffusion method produced inhibition zones of 2.58 mm (20%), 6.61 mm (30%), and 9.08 mm (40%), with a Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) value of 25%. Identification of secondary metabolites using GC-MS revealed 38 compounds belonging to terpenoid, ester and aromatic Hyhrocarbons groups. These results indicate that the ethyl acetate extract of jamblang leaves possesses toxicity, antioxidant, and antibacterial properties, thus having the potential to be developed as a phytopharmaceutical.

Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) Project-based Learning to Enhance Students’ Multiliteracy on Renewable Energy: A Comparative Study between Urban and Rural Schools
type: item
description: Early renewable energy education has become increasingly vital since the urgency of sustainability in the energy sector continues to grow. This study provided a comparative analysis of students’ multiliteracy enhancement between urban and rural schools in the Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics Project-Based Learning (STEM-PjBL) setting. A quasi-experimental design was employed involving 120 students from one urban and one rural secondary school, selected using stratified random sampling. Multiliteracy was measured using pre- and post-tests and analyzed through normalized gain (N-gain) scores. Results indicated that both schools demonstrated moderate improvement in multiliteracy after the intervention. However, the urban school achieved relatively stronger performance compared with the rural school. It is found that urban students were associated with greater access to digital teaching and learning facilities. Conversely, rural students benefited from rich local knowledge and community practices related to natural resource management, which supported contextual understanding of renewable energy concepts. Future research is recommended to integrate sustainability education at earlier educational stages and further embed renewable energy applications within the formal curriculum to promote sustained multiliteracy development.

The Potential of Corn Cobs for Bio-CNG Production and Fermented Feed, and Circular System Marketing to Support a Residue-Free Circular Economy
type: item
description: The increasing volume of corn cob waste in Indonesia poses environmental challenges and reflects underutilized biomass with potential economic value. This study examines the conversion of corn cobs into Bio-CNG through anaerobic digestion and the utilization of fermentation residues as livestock feed within a circular economy framework. The novelty lies in integrating energy production, feed generation, and circular system marketing in a single agro-based model. A laboratory experimental study using a 3×3 factorial Completely Randomized Design (CRD) was conducted, employing Biomethane Potential Tests (BMP) with rumen and methanogenic inoculums at different temperatures and fermentation times (2–6 days). Gas production and digestate composition were analyzed using standard methods, including proximate analysis. Results show substrate degradation up to 55.34%, methane production reaching 3.82% (rumen microbes, 39°C) and 10.79% (methanogenic basis), and total gas production up to 10.29%. Digestate quality improved, with protein increasing from 4.95% to 7.39% and TDN from 53.34% to 55.42%, indicating suitability as ruminant feed. The study is limited to laboratory-scale and short fermentation duration. Practically, this model can support integrated agroenergy systems in rural areas. In conclusion, corn cobs offer significant potential as a dual resource for renewable energy and livestock feed, supporting sustainable circular agriculture.

Estimation of Carbon Stocks in Mangrove Ecosystems as Blue Carbon Mitigation on the South Coast of Lombok Island
type: item
description: Mangrove ecosystems are globally recognized as major blue carbon sinks, yet site-specific evidence linking sediment carbon, nutrient availability, and community structure in sandy mangrove substrates remains limited, particularly along the south coast of Lombok Island. This study addresses that gap by examining how sediment carbon content relates to mangrove diversity, substrate texture, and nutrients across three stations namely Tanjung Luar, Kedome, and Poton Bako. A field survey using systematic line transects (10×10 m trees; 5×5 m saplings; 2×2 m seedlings) was combined with sediment coring (0–100 cm). Sediment carbon was measured by Loss on Ignition (LOI), while texture and nutrients (N, P, K) were analyzed in the laboratory. Mangrove communities showed moderate diversity (H' = 0.45–1.50). Poton Bako exhibited the highest diversity and evenness (H' = 1.50; E = 0.87), indicating a relatively stable stand compared with Tanjung Luar and Kedome. Sediment carbon varied by location and species, with the highest values associated with Rhizophora apiculata, Rhizophora mucronata, and Sonneratia alba, reaching up to 875.22, 825.45, and 665.55, respectively. Although sediments were predominantly sandy (>50%), finer fractions (silt-clay, ±5-47%) and relatively high nutrients in Rhizophora zones (N up to 4.28%; P up to 99.35 ppm; K up to 22.63 meq%) enhanced carbon retention. Environmental parameters were within optimal ranges (pH 5.7-6.2; salinity 34.5–35.5‰; temperature 27-29°C). These findings indicate that even sandy mangrove substrates can store substantial carbon when supported by favorable nutrient conditions and stable species composition, highlighting the blue carbon significance of South Lombok mangroves for ecosystem-based coastal management. Limitations include reliance on LOI for carbon estimation and the absence of seasonal measurements, which may influence carbon and nutrient dynamics.

The Role of Augmented Reality-Based Inquiry Learning in Enhancing Elementary Students’ Scientific Literacy for Sustainable Quality Education
type: item
description: This study examined the effect of an Augmented Reality (AR)-supported inquiry learning model on elementary school students’ scientific literacy. This study employed a quasi-experimental non-equivalent group design involving two instructional groups: an experimental group receiving AR-supported inquiry learning and a comparison group receiving guided inquiry learning without AR support. Data were collected through scientific literacy pretests and posttests administered to both groups. The findings showed that the experimental group achieved greater improvement in scientific literacy, with mean scores increasing from 64.71 to 78.63, whereas the guided inquiry group showed a smaller increase from 52.66 to 55.10. Paired-sample t-test results indicated a significant improvement in the experimental group (p < .05), while the guided inquiry group did not demonstrate a statistically significant change (p > .05). In addition, an independent-samples t-test revealed a significant difference between the two groups after treatment (p < .05). Effect size analysis produced a Cohen’s d value of 0.95, indicating a large practical effect. These findings suggest that AR-supported inquiry learning is more effective than guided inquiry learning without AR support in enhancing elementary school students’ scientific literacy.

Agronomic Adaptation of Three Sweet Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L.) Varieties of Two Semi-Arid Dryland Agroecosystems on Lombok, Indonesia
type: item
description: Lombok Island, Indonesia, possesses approximately 893,758 ha of dryland with significant potential for developing drought-tolerant crops such as sweet sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L.) to strengthen food security in semi-arid regions. This study evaluated the agronomic adaptation of three sweet sorghum varieties, namely Bioguma 3, Soper 9, and Numbu, under two contrasting dryland agroecosystems: clay-textured Vertisol in East Lombok (pH 6.8, organic C 2.2%, CEC 64.6 me/100 g) and sandy loam Entisol in North Lombok (pH 6.3, organic C 1.0%, CEC 15.9 me/100 g). The experiment employed a randomized complete block design with four replications, observing stem biomass, leaf biomass, and grain yield at 75, 90, and 105 DAS. Results demonstrated that soil physical and chemical properties strongly influenced varietal performance. The Vertisol soil, characterized by high cation exchange capacity and moisture retention, significantly enhanced vegetative growth, with Bioguma 3 producing the highest stem biomass (75.00 tons/ha) and leaf biomass (8.18 tons/ha). In contrast, the Entisol soil generated lower biomass yields (41.64 tons/ha stems and 5.55 tons/ha leaves) but supported more stable grain production across varieties. Soper 9 recorded the highest grain yield, reaching 6.09 tons/ha on Vertisol and 4.70 tons/ha on Entisol. These findings highlight the importance of integrating appropriate varietal selection with soil management strategies to improve dryland agricultural productivity and promote sustainable food security.

Effectiveness of Gym Ball Exercises Combined with the Back-and-Forth Child’s Pose in Reducing Low Back Pain Among Third-Trimester Pregnant Women
type: item
description: Back pain is one of the most common complaints experienced by pregnant women, particularly during the third trimester, as a result of physiological changes and the increased mechanical load on the spine. One non-pharmacological intervention that may help alleviate this condition is exercise using a gym ball combined with the Back-and-Forth Child’s Pose technique. This study aimed to determine the effect of gym ball exercises using the Back-and-Forth Child’s Pose method on reducing back pain among women in the third trimester of pregnancy. The study employed a pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest–posttest approach. Participants received the intervention in the form of Back-and-Forth Child’s Pose exercises using a gym ball twice daily for 10–15 minutes over a period of one week. Back pain intensity was measured before the intervention and again on the seventh day after the intervention using a standardized pain scale. The sample consisted of 15 third-trimester pregnant women who reported experiencing back pain. The results showed that before the intervention, 12 respondents (80%) experienced moderate pain and 3 respondents (20%) experienced mild pain. After the intervention, 10 respondents (66.6%) experienced mild pain, 3 respondents (20%) reported no pain, and only 2 respondents (13.4%) continued to experience moderate pain. Furthermore, the mean pain score decreased from 3.00 before the intervention to 1.96 after the intervention. Statistical analysis using the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test yielded a p-value of 0.000 (p < 0.05), indicating that gym ball exercises using the Back-and-Forth Child’s Pose method had a statistically significant effect on reducing back pain among women in the third trimester of pregnancy

Optimization of Essence Formulation Containing Purified Extract of Purple Rosella (Hibiscus sabdariffa L.) and Evaluation of Its Antioxidant Activity Using DPPH Method
type: item
description: The ethanol extract of purple roselle flowers (Hibiscus sabdariffa L.) is known to exhibit very strong antioxidant activity and contains flavonoids, anthocyanins, and tannins that contribute to free radical scavenging through hydrogen donation mechanisms. This study aimed to formulate an antioxidant essence based on purified purple roselle extract. The extract was obtained by maceration using 70% ethanol and purified through liquid–liquid extraction using an aqueous–ethyl acetate solvent system. The purified extract was formulated into essence preparations at concentrations of 1% (FI), 3% (FII), and 5% (FIII), with the base formula (FIV) as a negative control and quercetin (FV) as a positive control. Evaluations included organoleptic properties, homogeneity, viscosity, pH, and freeze–thaw stability, while antioxidant activity was assessed using the DPPH method. All formulations met the required physical quality standards, and Formulas I–IV remained stable during testing. Formula V exhibited a color change from yellow to reddish-brown, indicating the temperature sensitivity of quercetin. The IC₅₀ values of FI, FII, and FIII were 57.96 ppm (strong), 47.01 ppm (very strong), and 33.63 ppm (very strong), respectively, while FV showed an IC₅₀ of 29.86 ppm. Formula III demonstrated the best performance with very strong antioxidant activity and good physical stability.

Sustainable Strategy Development for Agro-Industrial SMIs Based on Process Performance Analysis: Integration of Value Stream Mapping, Eisenhower Matrix, and Interpretive Structural Modeling
type: item
description: This study aims to develop strategic recommendations for sustainable agro-industrial Small and Medium Industries (SMIs) in North Jakarta based on process performance analysis by integrating Value Stream Mapping (VSM), Eisenhower Matrix, and Interpretive Structural Modeling (ISM). A mixed-methods approach was employed, including field observations, in-depth interviews, literature review, and expert judgment to capture the actual conditions of agro-industrial SMIs comprehensively. Value Stream Mapping (VSM) analysis identifies the presence of non-value-added activities that contribute to production inefficiencies, indicating that the development of agro-industrial SMIs in North Jakarta remains at a basic level and highlighting the need to enhance the participation of SMI actors in development programs. The Eisenhower Matrix further classifies development factors into four strategic quadrants and generates seven alternative development strategies based on urgency and importance. Furthermore, ISM analysis reveals that strengthening the capacity of SMI facilitators is the key driving strategy that supports business feasibility and production standardization, digital and institutional ecosystem strengthening, and human resource development. These strategies subsequently enable technology integration and integrated environmental management of production, ultimately leading to the development of superior products based on innovation and market collaboration as the long-term strategic objective for sustainable SMI development in North Jakarta.

Evaluation of White Weathered Mushrooms for Reduction of Lignin and Improvement of Animal Feed Digestion from Coconut Coir Waste
type: item
description: Limited forage availability due to land conversion has become a major constraint in goat farming development. Therefore, the utilization of agricultural waste as alternative feed is increasingly important, including young coconut husk waste which is abundant but underutilized. However, its high lignocellulosic content, particularly lignin, limits digestibility and nutritional value for ruminants. This study aimed to evaluate the ability of several white-rot fungi to reduce lignin content and improve the cellulose characteristics of young coconut husk waste as a potential alternative feed ingredient. The research was conducted in two stages: fungal selection and optimization of fermentation conditions. The first stage used five fungal treatments, namely Trichoderma sp. TR3, Pleurotus sajor-caju, Pleurotus ostreatus, Trametes versicolor, and Lentinus edodes. Parameters observed included lignin and cellulose contents after 20 days of incubation. The second stage evaluated the effect of incubation period (20, 30, and 40 days) and inoculum volume (0.5, 0.7, and 1.0 mL) using Pleurotus sajor-caju as the selected fungus. The results showed that Pleurotus sajor-caju produced the lowest lignin content (17.93%) and the highest cellulose content (48.80%) compared with other fungi. In the optimization stage, the lowest lignin content was observed in treatment A3B1 (40 days incubation and 0.5 mL inoculum) at 15.47%, while the highest cellulose content was obtained in treatment A2B1 (30 days incubation and 0.5 mL inoculum) at 61.15%. These findings indicate that Pleurotus sajor-caju has strong potential for selective delignification of young coconut husk waste while maintaining cellulose content. Biological fermentation using white-rot fungi can therefore be considered a promising and environmentally friendly approach for improving the quality of lignocellulosic waste as ruminant feed

Diversity of Insect Pests, Parasitoids, and Predators on Rice Plants (Oryza Sativa L.) in Minahasa Regency
type: item
description: Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is one of the most important crops as a major source of carbohydrates for the majority of the world's population. However, to date, rice farming in West Kakas District, Minahasa Regency, still faces problems due to pest attacks. The purpose of this study was to determine the types and diversity of insects on rice plants in West Kakas District, Minahasa Regency. The research was conducted in West Kakas Subdistrict, which was determined using the purposive method, at four locations with five observation points. Insects were captured directly using insect nets. The captured insect samples were collected and grouped according to type. The types and population densities of the captured insects were counted and identified, then analyzed for diversity using the Shenon and Wivier formula to obtain the diversity index (H), similarity index (E), richness index (R), and dominance index (C). The results of the study show that there are insect pests and natural enemies (parasitoids and predators). The insect pests consist of 5 orders, 12 families, and 16 species, namely Dolycorus sp, Scotinopharasp., Stenodema sp, Leptocorisa sp, Paraecosmetus sp, Cofana spectra, Recilia sp., Nephotetix sp, Oxya sp. , Anacridium sp, Chilo sp, Parnara sp, Cnaphalocrocis sp. , Orseolia sp , Chlorops sp, and Phyllotretra sp. Meanwhile, natural enemies consist of 3 orders, 9 families, and 9 species, namely Cyrtohinus sp. , sp, Agryophylax sp. , Sepedon sp., Encarsia sp., Menochilus sp. , Ophionea sp. , Paederus sp., Sceliphron sp. and Agriocnemis sp. The results of the Shannon and Wiever diversity analysis are H' = 3.04 or a high diversity index, the richness index R = 4.67 or moderate criterion value, the evenness index E = 0.52 or moderate and unstable evenness index, and the dominance index C = 0.377 or low dominance.

Factors Influencing Shift of Livelihoods from the Agricultural to Non-Agricultural Sector in the Nickel Mining Area of Central Halmahera Regency
type: item
description: Indonesia has several leading sectors that support the national economy, one of which is the agricultural sector. However, over time, there has been a significant shift of labor from the agricultural sector to non-agricultural sectors. This large-scale labor migration has implications for the development and sustainability of the agricultural sector. In the context of North Maluku, the mining sector has emerged as a leading economic sector, particularly in regions such as Central Halmahera. The presence of the mining industry has contributed to changes in local livelihood structures, marked by a shift of labor from the agricultural sector to non agricultural sectors that develop as multiplier effects of mining activities. This study aims to identify the factors influencing the transition of livelihoods from the agricultural sector to non-agricultural sectors in mining areas surrounding Central Halmahera. The research employs descriptive analysis and multiple linear regression methods. The independent variables examined include the reduction of agricultural land (X1), income uncertainty in the agricultural sector (X2), job opportunities in non-agricultural sectors (X3), and income stability in non-agricultural sectors (X4). The results show that the partial regression analysis (t-test) indicate that the reduction of agricultural land (X1) and employment opportunities in the non-agricultural sector (X3) have a statistically significant influence on livelihood shifting (Y). In contrast, uncertainty in the agricultural sector (X2) and income stability in non-agricultural sectors (X4) do not demonstrate a statistically significant influence on livelihood shifting (Y). Furthermore, the results of the simultaneous analysis indicate that these variables collectively have a significant influence on the shift in livelihoods from the agricultural sector to non-agricultural sectors
