Learners need to possess scientific literacy in order to be able to analyze and explain scientific concepts and solve daily life problems. The current study aimed to analyze the potential of the Socio-Science Spirituality learning model to improve the scientific literacy of students at the junior high school level. The sample of this research contained eight-grade students from an Islamic based school in Surabaya. A quasi-experimental design was used in this study involving the Socio-Science Spirituality class as the experimental group and the conventional class as the control group. Data were collected using multiple choice tests where the questions were developed based on 37 scientific literacy indicators. The data were analyzed using ANCOVA. The results showed that the application of the learning model influenced students’ scientific literacy, where the Socio-Science Spirituality group increased their scientific literacy 28.37% higher than the conventional group. In short, the Socio-Science Spirituality learning model has a higher potential to increase students’ scientific literacy, so that it can be used as a new reference to empower students’ scientific literacy.

Plants are one of the richest natural resources in Indonesia and contain active chemicals.These plants have the potential to become raw materials for traditional medicine. One of them isbetel plant. The use of Betel leaves, especially in Java, is generally accompanied by specialconditions or criteria, namely: betel leaf which 'meets ros-e'. 'Ros' comes from the Javanese languagewhich means vein, in this case it is a vein of leaves. 'Temu' comes from the Javanese language whichmeans to meet, meet. Betel rose meeting is betel which leaves veins (lateral nerves) meet theposition of the segment; so that the shape is symmetrical. Meanwhile, phytochemical laboratory testresults for total flavonoid content of betel leaves and non-temurose leaves were 53,522 and 43,041ppm. These values include high levels (> 50 ppm) and moderate levels (between> 10 - 50 ppm). Thehigher the level of flavonoids, the more likely the antioxidant potential will be. In theimplementation of riyadhoh, making betel leaves meet rose as a medium as a form of philosophy thatis betel or tell me means ngangsu kaweruh (studying), whereas meet rose can be interpretedas meeting taste.
