Environmental learning in the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic requires 21st-Century learning innovation which promotes Higher-Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) of which ILMIZI is the potential learning model. The purpose of this study was to measure the students’ HOTS using HOTS Assessment based on Environmental Problem of COVID-19 (HOTS-AEP-COVID-19) and describe the syntax of ILMIZI model for the implementation of e-learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. The research subjects used  were 172 senior high school students randomly selected from Bekasi City in several schools. The descriptive research used online survey as the data collection technique. The results showed that the students HOTS scores measured using HOTS-AEP-COVID-19 were still in very low category either for all students (22.83) or male students (21.32) and female students (23.82). Hence, the ILMIZI model need further evaluation to be implemented as an alternative for the 21st-Century environmental learning.

Environmental education amid Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic requires innovation. The pandemic situation need to improving student attitudes in maintaining the environment need an improvement by conducting various innovations and one of them is ILMIZI learning model utilization. The research aim was to improve student attitudes with the ILMIZI model. The research method is experimental without a control class. Samples involved in the research consist of 61 students with a treatment of environmental learning using the ILMIZI model. The Instrument used in this research was the attitude instrument with a scale of 1-5. The research results suggest that t-value (.231) > t-statistic (1.67) indicating that the ILMIZI model is not yet effective in improving the students’ attitudes in maintaining the environment. The pretest score (83.80) and post-test score (83.62) are not significantly different. The conclusion drawn from the research is that the ILMIZI model has not effective in improving student attitudes in maintaining the environment during COVID-19.

This paper aimed to study the quality of honey from genus Apis sp. and Melipona sp from Archipelago of Marajo. The honey was collected from two cities (Soure and Salvaterra). All samples were analyzed for their physicochemical composition, phenolic compounds, antioxidant activity, and analyses of standard quality control of honey. All data were subjected to statistical analysis of Tukey (95%), Person correlation and Multivariate (Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Grouping Analysis (HCA)). The study resulted in a significant antioxidant potential from Apis sp. (EC50 = 21.14 ± 142.90 µg.mL-1) and Melipona sp. (EC50 = 13.62 ± 198.11 µg.mL-1) by the DPPH (2,2- diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) radical sequestration method. All studied honey presented excellent quality and the presence of secondary metabolites belonging to the class of total phenolic (ranged 27.01 ± 1.01 to 56.09 ± 1.32 mg GAE.100 g-1). In relation to physicochemical and microbiological parameters, all the samples were adequate for use and consumption. The multivariate analysis proved to be a very useful tool for the analysis of different samples of honey. The honey quality is very important since Marajo is a region with great potential for honey production that needs standardization of those products, which deserve greater attention and appreciation.
