An understanding of the local traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) of a region is crucial to understand the interactions between indigenous societies and their ecosystems. To understand the TEK of Indonesian indigenous people and its influencing factors, we evaluated the Tengger people’s knowledge and conservation awareness regarding culturally important plants (Javanese edelweiss). We interviewed 641 people from seven Tengger villages located adjacent to Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park (BTS), Indonesia. We developed 31 models to examine factors affecting edelweiss knowledge and calculated the Akaike information criterion values to select the best model. Sex, education, and residency duration were significant predictors of edelweiss knowledge. Men, individuals with higher levels of education, and those who had lived in the area for a longer period of time had higher levels of edelweiss knowledge. Our findings confirm that communication within the community and external information sources, such as media and formal education, are involved in knowledge transmission related to edelweiss. Educational activities for local people can be used to disseminate TEK through formal education in schools and informal education programs conducted by the national park managers.

“…The learning space is the physical environment where learning takes place and is made up of the seating pattern (Nja et al, 2023). This seating arrangement is vital when educators seek to facilitate active learning environment particularly in a blended learning classroom (Clinton & Wilson, 2019;Ochola & Achrazoglou, 2015; Serrano, Dea-Ayuela, Gonzalez-Burgos, Serrano-Gil, & Lalatsa, 2019).…”

The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of undergraduate students’ predilection of seating pattern on their engagement and achievement in a collaborated blended learning in a science education classroom. The sample of this study constituted 120 third year science education students. This research employed a mixed method design by using qualitative and quantitative studies. Two instruments named: Student’s performance and predilection for seating pattern (SPAPFSP) and Students’ class experience with the U-shape seating pattern (SCEUSP), choice of seating pattern and why the choice were used. The Cronbach alpha reliability for the instrument ranged from 0.89 to 0.91. Results of the analysis using a 2 by three analysis of variance indicated that the students in the U-shaped classroom achieved more than those in the row-column arrangement. A paired sample t-test analysis test results reported that students preferred the U-shape seating pattern in their classrooms. The implication of this study is that the seating pattern adopted by a teacher influences the educational outcome of students. It was therefore recommended among others that the U-shape seating arrangement be used in a blended science instruction.
