Abstract
The problem of water resources consists of three things the availability, using, and management.This problem is increasingly along with water pollution and climate change. To solve the problem not only needs high level of formal education but also indigenous knowledge that already exists in the community. One of the indigenous knowledge in Besemah-Semende is about water conservation. This study uses a descriptive qualitative research design with a semi-structured interview to explores the understanding of the Besemah people regarding indigenous knowledge about water resources conservation. The object of research is the Besemah Tribe people who live in three sub-districts in the Semendo region. The study was found that indigenous knowledge of Semende to keep the water resources in two form, that is tebat and tambat aiek. Tebat is natural or artificial temporary basin to collect water reservoir from a mountain spring in the village for irrigating rice fields, raising fish, bathing and even washing clothes. For the sake of maintaining the sustainability of the water in the basin, there are several unwritten regulations regarding the use of tebat, such as not being used to dispose of garbage and dirt, maintaining the source of spate water by keeping the forest around the spring source. Tambat aiek is an indigenous knowledge to keep utilizing the water as long as the water is still flowing(for example from a spring, to the public debate, to the debate to keep fish, to the rice field, to the fish pond to the rice field even to the mini power station and so on). If the water discharge can no longer be used then they will drain it into the river. In order to maintain tebat and tambak aiek, they created a water keeper called the datuk aiek and bubut tebat. Datuk aiek are the custode the flow of water in tambat aiek meanwhile bubut tebat is a way to fixing damaged basin as well as harvesting fish in the basin. To protect tebat from the bad people, they using pamali culture by loading pyrotechnics from elders or pioneers of the establishment of tebat. The findings of this research using for teaching material in enviromental changing at science teaching and learning

Abstract
The environmental issues that happened in the northern part of Central Java are getting worse. Human activity is believed as the main factor of environmental damage. The developing in infrastructure, changing the coastal area into harbor and industry and also habit in throwing waste material into the sea will contribute great damage in the environment. Then, preventive action is needed to overcome this problem. By changing the young generation-s perception, awareness, and action with the integration of environmental literacy in learning practice will become the best way to fix these challenges. This research is aimed to develop environmental literacy-integrated learning in high schools and measure student-s environmental literacy as a result of the implementation of this integrated learning. The environmental literacy-integrated learning combines environmental literacy aspects with problem-based learning model. In addition, a set of learning media and module based environmental literacy are used as supporting materials in this research. This research use mix method with a qualitative approach to examine the quality of the environmental literacy-integrated learning. The quantitative approach also used with quasi-experimental design to measure the effect of environmental literacy-integrated learning which involving 30 students in the experimental class and 30 students in the control class. The score of environmental literacy is taken after the implementation of environmental-integrated learning using Middle schools environmental literacy surveys (MSELS) questionnaires. The data then analyze using ancova. The qualitative data is also used to evaluate the implementation of environmental literacy-integrated learning. The result shows that environmental literacy-integrated learning gives positive impact in student-s comprehension in all environmental literacy aspects.

Abstract
Multiple representation is a method of learning that can be used by teachers to enhance students- thinking skills. The research has been conducted descriptively to explore the effectiveness of the implementation of multiple representation methods in science learning. The learning was carried out at a secondary school on respiratory system topics. The effectiveness of learning was studied from the perspective of student activities, students ability to represent concepts, and its impact on students reasoning skills. The results shows that always activating and bringing students closer with a variety of representations made students become experts to use various methods such as graphics, visual images, tables, and chemical reaction in explaining concepts. Almost all students give at least two types of representation in answering the test. On using Toulmins- Argument, it was also found the increase of students- reasoning skills from all of levels. The decrease in the percentage of students who were at level 1 in reasoning skills is followed by an increase in the percentage of students in the level 2 category. Some students showed the increase of their ability to level 3. Moreover, the quality of argument shifted from the domination of weak arguments to domination of strong arguments.

Abstract
Abstract This research originated from the concern of researchers looking at the activities of students in schools that still use plastic during snacks in the school canteen. Excessive consumption of plastic results in a large amount of plastic waste. Because plastic is not derived from biological compounds, plastic has properties that are difficult to degrade (non-biodegradable). Plastic waste has a negative impact on the natural environment, which most people use as a means of fulfilling their daily needs. Seeing these conditions, it is necessary to have a learning that can foster the ecological awareness or ecoliteracy of students by utilizing nature which in this case is the oen iboh plant (iboh leaf) which is used as a container for food and snacks for students in the school canteen. Efforts to improve the ecoliteracy of students through the use of surrounding natural resources as a source of learning in Science learning in grade IV SD IT Nurul Ishlah Banda Aceh. The researcher wanted to find out the parents response to the activities of students in the school in the utilization of natural resources for increasing ecoliteracy. From the results of preliminary observations carried out on Science learning activities in class IV SD IT Nurul Ishlah Banda Aceh. This study uses a qualitative approach with descriptive methods. The subjects of this study were parents of fourth grade students of SD IT Nurul Ishlah Banda Aceh. Sources of research data are: (1) written sources, (2) oral sources, (3) documents, and (4) records. Data collection techniques are observation, interviews, and documentation. The process of data analysis research is carried out with qualitative descriptive techniques. Based on the results of the study concluded, it is recommended for parents to motivate students to use nature in the environment as an effort to increase the ecoliteracy of students from an early age.

Abstract
In line with the Industrial Revolution Era 4.0, teachers must also try to improve competencies by the demands of the times. The Science Teacher Community is a very relevant vehicle for building the profession of science education. Descriptive research has been carried out to observe the profile of activity in the Science Teacher Community, from excellence to limitations. The results of the observations can recommend solutions to improve the quality of Science Teacher Community activities to be able to accelerate the achievement of teacher competencies. The study was conducted by distributing open questionnaires to 38 science teachers in the urban area of the Regency. Content questions related to Science Teacher Community activities needed. The results of the study show some weaknesses in Science Teacher Community activities. Most respondents stated that there were time and distance constraints when participating in Science Teacher Community activities. Respondents were able to review their weaknesses in content (about physics), management and pedagogical practices of related content in developing 21st-century skills. They also showed weaknesses in IT usage. The recommended recommendation is to manage the practice of Science Teacher Community activities based on blended learning, focusing on efforts to overcome weaknesses in content and pedagogy content knowledge (PCK).

Abstract
Lecturers as facilitators play an important role in generating students- understanding about the learning materials. Good rethorical technique of the lecturers is believed to enhance students- understanding about the course materials. For this reason, the utilization of good rhetorical techniques is essential in delivering lectures. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of the rhetorical technique of Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences lecturers at Bengkulu University on the critical thinking skills of students in the Geophysics Class. This research employs one sample free test or the One Sample t-test Method. The data of this research was collected by using a test which is a performance test and then analysed by using Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. The validity of the data is proven through data normality test. The results showed that the rhetorical technique used by the Mathematics and Natural Sciences lecturer had a significant positive effect on students critical thinking skills with p-value> 0.05. Key word : rethorical technique, critical thinking skills, the learning science materials

Abstract
Abstract. The environmental damage, especially global warming and climate change is the biggest crisis that become a main concern of world globally. The efforts to overcome these threats must be synergistic by each individual in all aspects of life including education. The main substance of the education is entirely determined by the content that contained in the curriculum. This study aims to provide an overview the number of low carbon education contents in the science education curriculum and to investigate the materials of low carbon education that are taught in science education study program.This research is a descriptive study using literature analysis method. The documents were analyzed is a environmental course syllabus in Science Education study program of some LPTK in Indonesia. The results showed the number of environmental courses in science education study program is between 1-2 course (2-4 credits). Most (± 85%) of the material that is taught therein is the basic concept of the environment, the components of environment and natural resources, interactions of living beings and the environment, matter and energy in ecosystems, environmental ethics, and environmental and socio-community. And a small part (± 15%) contains material relating to green technology, sustainability, and green energy. Overall the portion of low carbon education content in the curriculum of Science Education study program in Indonesia is still very low

Abstract
Scientific literacy is an important ability for all teachers, but research on scientific literacy for non-science major prospective teachers is rarely. This study aims to obtain essential indicators of scientific literacy for non-science major prospective teachers. This research is a qualitative study, with the focus group discussion (FGD) method. The FGD panel was selected from literacy experts (scientific, linguistic, numerical) and education experts. The instrument is an initial question sheet to the panelists, which then develops in the discussion. Data were analyzed qualitatively, with the stages of data reduction and taxonomy. The results of the study show that the non-science major teacher candidates still need scientific literacy skills. This ability is mainly in the aspect of attitude (the willingness to follow the development of science) and the epistemic aspects of scientific literacy. The subjects that can be used to improve this ability are mainly Basic Natural Sciences and other relevant subjects.

Abstract
Technology is created to facilitate human performance. Technology develops every time so it becomes a major need in life. Industry era 4.0 is one example where the existence of technology is the main key in life. In this article we develop the use of technology in learning systems. The Smart Edu program was used as the main project in the development of this research. The research was conducted in lectures on the deepening of science materials with research and development (R & D) methods of the programs developed. The development of this program adapts the transparency of smart cities that can connect the existence of a factual environment into the lecture system. Students, lecturers and even teachers in the field can access this program with a predetermined portion. With the nature of Transparency, this program can build collaboration from these three things so that full learning can be created covering the theoretical and factual sources from the field.
