“…Amalan kimia hijau boleh digunakan sebagai platform bagi guru kimia untuk melibatkan pelajar kimia mereka bentuk eksperimen kimia hijau, sekali gus meningkatkan kemahiran pelajar membuat kajian sendiri dan mencari informasi tentang amali kimia hijau. Justeru pelajar dapat meningkatkan kesedaran dan amalan lestari (Taha et al, 2019).…”

“…Dapatan kajian yang berbeza ditunjukkan dalam kajian Viggnesvaran (2018) yang mendapati amali kimia hijau tidak menunjukkan perbezaan signifikan pencapaian antara kumpulan kawalan dan rawatan. Dapatan kajian ini juga tiada selari dengan kajian Taha et al (2019) yang mendapati tiada perbezaan yang signifikan antara pelajar yang mengikuti amali kimia hijau dan amali kimia tradisional bagi tajuk kadar tindak balas dari aspek pencapaian. Namun kedua-dua kajian menunjukkan min skor pencapaian pelajar yang mengikuti amali kimia hijau lebih tinggi berbanding min skor pencapaian pelajar yang mengikuti amali kimia tradisional.…”

Amali kimia hijau merupakan pendekatan yang mengurangkan kesan ke atas alam sekitar mealui penggunaan bahan yang kurang mencemarkan alam serta kesan kepada kesihatan manusia melalui penggunaan bahan yang lebih selamat. Kajian ini melibatkan pembinaan amali kimia hijau bagi sub tajuk asid dan alkali dan kesan amali hijau terhadap pencapaian dan kesedaran kelestarian alam pelajar sekolah menengah dengan membandingkannya dengan amali kimia tradisional. Kajian dilaksanakan menggunakan reka bentuk kuasi eksperimen yang berlangsung selama 5 minggu dan melibatkan 39 orang pelajar tingkatan empat yang mengambil mata pelajaran Kimia KSSM. Pelajar dibahagikan kepada dua kumpulan rawatan dan kawalan. Pelajar kumpulan rawatan mengikuti pembelajaran amali kimia asid dan alkali menggunakan amali kimia hijau manakala kumpulan kawalan menggunakan amali kimia yang dibekalkan oleh Kementerian Pelajaran Malaysia (KPM). Data ujian pra dan pasca dianalisis menggunakan ujian-t bagi melihat kesan amali kimia hijau ke atas pencapaian dan kesedaran kelestarian alam sekitar pelajar. Hasil analisis data ujian pra pencapaian dan pra kesedaran kelestarian alam antara kumpulan rawatan dan kawalan mendapati tidak terdapat perbezaan yang signifikan dalam pencapaian [t (37) = −0.812, p>0.05] dan kesedaran kelestarian pelajar bagi kumpulan kawalan dan rawatan sebelum rawatan [t (37) = 0.290, p>0.05]. Walau bagaimanapun, dalam ujian pasca menunjukkan terdapat perbezaan yang signifikan bagi ujian pencapaian antara kumpulan kawalan dan rawatan [t (37) = 3.562, p<0.05]. Namun analisis ujian pasca kesedaran menunjukkan tiada perbezaan yang signifikan antara dua kumpulan [t (37) = 0.045, p>0.05]. Justeru, kajian menunjukkan amali kimia hijau dapat meningkatkan pencapaian pelajar dalam sub topik asid dan alkali.

“…An effective way to increase awareness for the environment in schools is to practice green practices and implementation of curriculum activities that involve students directly (Hasan et al, 2013). According to Taha et al (2019) teachers must have adequate competency and skills to cultivate students' awareness and practices in environmental sustainability.…”

“…According to Mohd Nizar et al, (2019), sustainable use includes using goods and services in a way that minimizes the use of natural resources and chemicals and reduces chemical waste. By designing green chemistry experiments, students are exposed to alternative materials that can be used to replace commonly used traditional chemicals (Taha et. al., 2019).…”

Although green chemistry had been promoted since 1980s, it is still quite unknown in Malaysia even among chemistry teachers and students. Hence, the success of environmental sustainability education would be hard to achieve if chemistry teachers did not have adequate competency and skills to cultivate students' green chemistry awareness and practices. This study investigated Malaysian chemistry teachers’ understanding, awareness and practices on green chemistry; and the impact of student-initiated green chemistry experiments on their practices of environmental sustainability; and on their achievement in the topic of electrochemistry. The survey involved 269 secondary school teachers, and the quasi-experimental study involved 77 secondary school chemistry students (n = 37 in control and n = 40 in treatment groups). A set of questionnaires for the teachers, and a set of tests for the students were employed in the study. Data was analysed using descriptive and inferential statistical techniques. Analysis of the survey found the level of teachers’ understanding of green chemistry was at a moderate level, their awareness on the importance of green chemistry was high while the level of their green chemistry practice was moderate. The quasi-experimental results revealed no significant difference in the achievement between students undergoing traditional chemistry experiments and the green chemistry experiments. Nevertheless, students participated in designing green chemistry experiments were found to have higher level of green chemistry awareness compared to the control group. This study recommends that teachers should empower students with suitable mechanisms to address sustainable environment issues in classroom or laboratory instruction to promote sustainable practices among school community.
