Model Pembelajaran Pendidikan Agama Islam Berbasis Proyek Kesadaran Lingkungan Di Sekolah
Researchers developed a project-based Islamic Religious Education learning model aimed at building environmental awareness among students, addressing the observed lack of environmental consciousness in school settings. The model integrates practical activities such as waste sorting and resource utilization into Islamic education curricula as a strategy to reduce littering and plastic waste behavior among students.
Learning instructional using webbed models based on local potential "Pulau Kembang" to enhance ecological literacy skill
Researchers developed an integrated science learning module for middle school students based on the local ecosystem of Pulau Kembang, an island in Indonesia, to improve ecological literacy. The module combined discovery learning principles with local environmental content. Students who used the module showed improved understanding of ecological concepts and environmental stewardship.
Development of microplastics pollution e-module in Sengguruh reservoir based on problem-based learning
Researchers developed a problem-based learning e-module on microplastic pollution in the Sengguruh Reservoir, achieving validity ratings of 95-100% from expert validators and practicality ratings above 93% from both teachers and students.
Curriculum development for student agency on sustainability issues: An exploratory study
Researchers developed an exploratory middle-school sustainability curriculum designed to foster student agency by challenging students to analyze real-world data, construct scientific arguments, and engage in activism around sustainability issues framed by the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
PEPS-KL: An Ecoliteracy Intervention for Plastic Waste Management Education
Researchers implemented the PEPS-KL ecoliteracy intervention with 35 tenth-grade students at SMAN 1 Takalar in South Sulawesi, using an ADDIE-structured, CBPR-based 6-hour program to improve plastic waste management knowledge and environmental awareness through experiential learning activities.
Promoting sustainability and conservation practices through environmental education in Aceh, Indonesia
This paper is not about microplastics; it is a mixed-methods study examining how environmental education programs in Aceh, Indonesia influence sustainability practices and conservation awareness.
School science activities with contributions from STEM practices: A study to address complex problems in elementary school classes, in the case of microplastics and their harmful effects
Researchers developed a theoretical and explanatory framework identifying which aspects of STEM education can strengthen the design of school science activities addressing complex problems such as microplastic pollution in elementary school settings. The study proposes a model for integrating STEM practices into classroom activities to build students' capacity to engage with real-world environmental challenges.
Pembersihan Sampah Di Pantai Lagunci Dan Pengaruhnya Terhadap Kepedulian Lingkungan Pemuda Usia SMP Di Desa Bahari III Kabupaten Buton Selatan
This community outreach study from Indonesia assessed the impact of beach cleanup activities at Lagunci Beach on environmental awareness among local residents, finding that participatory cleanup events increased ecological knowledge and pro-environmental behavior.
Contextual Teaching and Learning in Learning Environmental Pollution: the Effect on Student Learning Outcomes
This study evaluated contextual teaching and learning approaches for environmental pollution education, finding that connecting plastic pollution and waste concepts to real-world situations significantly improved student comprehension and motivation compared to conventional instruction.
A self‐reported instrument to measure and foster students' science connection to life with the CARE‐KNOW‐DO model and open schooling for sustainability
Researchers developed and validated a self-reported instrument to measure students' connection to science using the CARE-KNOW-DO model combined with an open schooling approach for sustainability. The study involved students working on real-world environmental problems including microplastic pollution alongside families and scientists. Evidence indicates that this approach can strengthen young people's engagement with science and sustainability topics.
Ecobrick: Fostering Sustainable Environmental Awareness in Tanjung Baru Village Community
Researchers conducted a community service project in Tanjung Baru Village, South Lampung, using ecobrick training workshops to foster sustainable environmental awareness, progressing through social mapping, problem identification, outreach, hands-on practice, and evaluation stages.
How Marine Plastic Pollution Education Develops Secondary School Students’ Sustainability Competences
Researchers investigated how marine plastic pollution education affects Norwegian secondary school students' sustainability competences, knowledge, and attitudes toward biodiversity protection using pre- and post-test questionnaires with 50 students. Results showed that structured marine plastic pollution curricula can improve students' understanding of ecosystem impacts and motivate protective behaviors.
Beat Plastic Pollution: Instilyoung Minds with Sustainable Practices at the School Level
This study aimed to raise awareness about plastic pollution by mobilizing school children as community advocates for sustainable practices over a six-month campaign. The initiative also explored converting collected plastic waste into biodiesel as a practical solution.
Education for Sustainable Development Oriented Didactic Design in A Bioplastic Context in Overcoming Barriers to Learning and Developing Attitude and Environmental Awareness
Researchers designed and evaluated a bioplastic curriculum using Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) principles, finding that hands-on bioplastic-making activities improved student understanding of sustainability concepts. The didactic design demonstrates how materials science and environmental education can be integrated in classroom settings.
Science interdisciplinary learning approach: a study interdisciplinary thinking skills and literacy environment
Researchers analyzed the impact of an interdisciplinary science learning approach on prospective teachers' ability to think across disciplines and develop environmental literacy related to sustainability. Using a quasi-experimental design, they compared students who received the interdisciplinary approach with a control group. The study found that integrating multiple scientific disciplines improved both interdisciplinary thinking skills and environmental awareness among future educators.
Do future teachers’ sustainability commitments really relate to action-oriented educational approaches?
Researchers analyzed educational proposals designed by 130 future secondary school teachers addressing the socioecological problem of microplastic pollution, examining the relationship between teachers' own sustainability perceptions and their selection of action-oriented educational approaches through mixed qualitative and quantitative methods.
