“…The problem-solving skill requires high-level thinking skills. This can be formed through knowledge in the form of questions and reasoning (Ulutas, 2017). It can be concluded that the majority of students in this study already have sufficient knowledge to form the problem-solving skill that are needed.…”

This study aimed to analyze ecological literacy, environmental awareness, academic ability, and environmental problem-solving skill at the Adiwiyata schools in Tangerang City. The research method used descriptive quantitative with survey technique. The respondents consisted of 245 students of class XI Science from three Adiwiyata Senior High Schools in Tangerang City. The instruments used in this study were tests and questionnaires. Ecological literacy was measured using multiple choice tests and questionnaires, environmental awareness was measured using a questionnaire, academic ability was measured by using the total national exam scores of students when in Junior High School, and environmental problem-solving skill was measured using essay tests. The results showed that the majority of students had ecological literacy scores with basic categories, environmental awareness scores with very good categories, academic ability scores with moderate categories, and scores for environmental problemsolving skill with enough categories. Based on the results of the study, other schools are expected to also be able to implement the Adiwiyata program so that students can develop ecological literacy, environmental awareness, academic ability and environmental problem solving skills.

“…Public awareness of environmental quality and sustainability will be manifested in environmentally conscious behavior or environmentally friendly behavior (Hendryx et al, 2013;Hendryx & Ahern, 2008). It is hoped that environmental problems will decrease with the spread of environmental education in various educational institutions from high schools to universities, especially with the increasing number of institutions implementing proenvironmental programs (Olsson, 2018;Schüßler et al, 2019;Steg & Vlek, 2009;Szczytko et al, 2018;Ulutas & Köksalan, 2017). Environmental education material has been included in the curriculum in almost all countries (Afandi, 2013;Hudson, 2001;Sawitri, 2016).…”

Spirituality-based environmental literacy (SEL) influences ecological knowledge, environmental expectations, cognitive abilities, and environmental-related behavior. In this regard, this research aims to determine SEL among prospective biology teacher throughout Indonesia. This study included a cross-sectional survey. The target respondents are students of education study programs in the field of biology who come from various institutions in Indonesia. Gender aspects, study program accreditation status, and semester-level are positioned as respondent characteristics whose impact on environmental literacy is analyzed. The sample size is 632 students. The data collection instrument used was the ELIS. The data collection process is carried out online. Data was analyzed using SPSS. We discuss the results of different tests based on gender, different tests based on accreditation, and different tests based on semester-level. This research provides unique results. Women have higher levels of SEL than men. There are significant differences between men and women in terms of environmental literacy, although references do not always support this. Accreditation status does not support differences in SEL levels. Furthermore, the semester-level (final semester) has a higher SEL, but that is only in the knowledge aspect. On that basis, we suggest several aspects to consider in future research.

“…Environmentally friendly behavior will be manifested as the result of public awareness of environmental quality and sustainability (Hendryx et al, 2013;Hendryx & Ahern, 2008). Evidently, environmental issues are expected to decrease as environmental education spreads in various educational institutions ranging from high schools to universities, particularly as the number of institutions implementing pro-environmental programs tends to increase (Olsson, 2018;Schüßler et al, 2019;Steg & Vlek, 2009;Szczytko et al, 2018;Ulutas & Köksalan, 2017). Almost all countries have included environmental education materials in their curricula (Afandi, 2013;Hudson, 2001;Sawitri, 2016).…”

Environmental attitude should be possessed by students as an effort to manage their relationship with environmental problems. However, there has never been any study on the environmental attitudes of prospective biology teachers in Indonesia. This study aims to discover the environmental attitude of the prospective science teachers throughout Indonesia. This cross-sectional survey study analyzes the aspects of gender, grade point average (GPA), college status, and study status which are positioned as the character of the respondent whose impact on the students’ environmental attitudes are analyzed in this study. The target population size of this study is 1300 people. Thus, based on Krejcie and Morgan Table, the minimum sample size with a confidence level of 95% and margin error of 5% is 1235 students. The data collection instrument used in this study is the Environmental Attitude Inventory/EAI questionnaire which has been validated by bilingual experts and transformed into an online questionnaire by means of Google Form. SPSS software was used to examine the data. The results indicate that there is no significant difference in EA scores based on gender, GPA factor, and university status background. The difference in EA scores is affected by whether or not students have taken courses related to the environment ownership. The researchers believe that it is critical to ensure that the course materials concerning environmental education are properly planned and implemented. Courses should be supplemented with themes on environmental issues ranging from local to global scope.
