Summary
Students
Area of Science:
- Environmental Education
- Character Education
- Educational Psychology
Background:
- Environmental awareness (EA) is a neglected aspect of character education among students.
- Student indifference impacts environmental protection, preservation, and damage repair efforts.
- This study investigates student EA profiles using LISREL 8.8 Confirmatory Factor Analysis.
Purpose of the Study:
- To analyze the environmental awareness profile of high school students.
- To assess the effectiveness and validity of the Strategic Environmental Awareness (SEA) instrument.
- To identify specific areas within EA indicators requiring improvement.
Main Methods:
- Quantitative descriptive analysis of EA indicators (Care, Curiosity, Critical, Dependability, Responsibility, Local Wisdom).
- Data collected via non-test questionnaires and observation from 131 Senior High School students.
- LISREL 8.8 Confirmatory Factor Analysis applied to assess the SEA instrument's model fit.
Main Results:
- The SEA instrument effectively identifies environmental awareness and meets model fit criteria.
- The SEA instrument is valid and reliable for profiling students' environmental awareness.
- While 'Responsibility' was significant, other EA indicators like 'Care,' 'Critical,' and 'Local Wisdom' showed less significance.
Conclusions:
- Students' insufficient environmental awareness and understanding of regional potential hinder sustainability.
- Profile analysis of environmental attitudes, values, and ethics is crucial for understanding student behavior.
- Implementing ethnoscience and socioscientific issues strategies can modify expected changes in SEA.

01:20Atomic Emission Spectroscopy: Overview
2.7K
Atomic emission spectroscopy (AES) is an analytical technique used to determine the elemental composition of a sample by analyzing the light emitted from excited atoms. In AES, atoms in a sample are excited to higher energy levels by thermal energy from high-temperature sources, such as plasma, arcs, or sparks. When these excited atoms return to lower energy states, they emit light at specific wavelengths characteristic of each element. The resulting atomic emission spectrum, which consists of...

01:17Design Example: Analyzing Capacity Contours for Flood Risk Assessment
128
Flood risk assessment involves careful planning and analysis to ensure the safety of communities near water retention structures. Capacity contours are a vital tool in this process, as they illustrate the potential spread of water at specific levels in a given area. In the context of building a bund across a small valley, these contours play a critical role in evaluating the safety of nearby residential areas.In this example, the bund is intended to store stormwater in the valley. The engineers...

01:21Self-Awareness and Its Effects
16
Self-awareness is a psychological state in which the individual becomes the focal point of their attention. This inward focus transforms the self into an object of contemplation and assessment, influencing how individuals perceive their actions and their alignment with personal and societal standards.Triggers and Contexts for Self-AwarenessSelf-awareness can be activated by external stimuli that make individuals visually or audibly aware of themselves, such as mirrors, cameras, or recordings.

Microorganisms play a pivotal role in maintaining ecosystem balance by recycling essential elements such as carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus, as well as supporting processes like bioremediation, wastewater treatment, and biofuel production.Microbes in Elemental CyclesIn the carbon cycle, microorganisms decompose organic matter, releasing carbon dioxide via aerobic respiration. This carbon dioxide is subsequently used by photosynthetic organisms to synthesize organic compounds, closing the...
