Profile and Correlation Analysis of Environmental Literacy Domains at Adiwiyata School
Abstract
Global environmental issues such as global warming, air pollution, and ecosystem degradation are becoming increasingly urgent to address through Education, including environmental literacy. This study aims to identify the environmental literacy profiles of students in Adiwiyata schools and to analyze the relationships among the domains of environmental literacy, which include knowledge, attitudes, and pro-environmental behavior. The research used a descriptive quantitative method with a sample of 47 ninth-grade students from two Adiwiyata schools. The instrument used was an environmental literacy questionnaire consisting of three indicators: environmental knowledge, pro-environmental attitudes, and environmentally responsible behavior. The results showed that students’ pro-environmental attitudes (81.6) and behaviors (74.3) were categorized as high, while environmental knowledge remained very low (16.1). Overall, students’ environmental literacy score reached 76.4%, which is considered high. These findings indicate that while students demonstrate positive attitudes and behaviors toward the environment, their environmental knowledge requires greater attention in the implementation of the Adiwiyata program. The study recommends integrating technology-based learning and practical activities in accordance with constructivist Theory and the TPACK framework to enhance the overall effectiveness of environmental Education. In addition, environmental literacy is significantly influenced by pro-environmental attitudes and behaviors, while knowledge alone is not sufficient to encourage changes in attitudes or actions. These findings underscore the importance of action competence as a key element of environmental literacy. True environmental literacy includes the ability to take concrete action in response to environmental issues.
