Abstract
Efforts to overcome global warming and climate change are integrated with science learning with the socio-scientific issues method. Materials on global warming and climate change are included in an interactive e-book that integrates the peat ecosystem's socio-scientific issues (SSI). This study aims to determine the effectiveness of the Integrated Interactive E-book SSI Ecosystem Peat on learning outcomes and students' environmental care attitudes. The research subjects were 30 grade VII students of SMPN 5 Palangkaraya, Central Kalimantan. The result is that SSI's integrated interactive e-book is effective in improving learning outcomes. The results of the SPSS test with a significance value of 0.05 showed a value of 0.008. There is a difference in the mean of the pretest and posttest results, with an N-gain value of 1.66 with low criteria. SSI's Integrated Interactive E-book is effective to improve students' environmental care attitude with an average score of 89.8% with the criteria of being very caring
Highlights
The issue of global warming and climate change is a topic of global concern because it is the main factor in environmental disasters (Azfin, 2020) One of the biggest causes is forest and land fires (Altman, et al, 2020)
Forest and land fires in Indonesia occur on peat soils caused by the conversion of land into oil palm plantations which are the main factors in greenhouse gas emissions (Maas, 2019; Sari, et al, 2017)
Integration of knowledge about peat ecosystems in Standart Competence 3.9 regarding global warming and climate change in junior high schools using the socio-scientific issues (SSI) method is an approach in learning where students are involved in discussing and making decisions regarding issues related to learning materials (Genisa, et al, 2020; Ilfiana, et al, 2021; Kahn & Zeidler, 2019; Zo’bi, 2014)
Summary
The issue of global warming and climate change is a topic of global concern because it is the main factor in environmental disasters (Azfin, 2020) One of the biggest causes is forest and land fires (Altman, et al, 2020). Efforts to prevent the impact of global warming and climate change due to forest and peatland fires need to be carried out early on through education and training to the community(Ramdhan & Siregar, 2018). This effort needs to be supported in the world of education by integrating it into learning materials. The SSI approach in science learning provides an understanding of learning materials by reviewing an issue or a learning topic from various points of view (Genisa, et al, 2020; Kabatas & Ezberci Cevik, 2017; Nida et al, 2020)
