Ethnoscience Study of Madura in the Process of Making Sarkoyo Herbal Medicine as a Learning Resource for Science Material
Main Article Content
Abstract
Sarkoyo herbal medicine is one of Madura's cultural heritages in Sumenep Regency that has become less known to the younger generation, resulting in its limited utilization in science education. This study aims to reconstruct local knowledge about the process of making Sarkoyo herbal medicine so that it can be used as a source of ethnoscience-based science learning. The study employed a mixed-methods approach with a sequential descriptive design. Quantitative data were obtained from 150 junior high school students through questionnaires, while qualitative data were collected through interviews with science teachers and herbal medicine makers, as well as through observations and documentation. Quantitative data were analyzed descriptively, while qualitative data were analyzed using the Miles and Huberman interactive model. The results showed that most students were familiar with Sarkoyo herbal medicine, but the integration of ethnoscience into science learning was remained low. The process of making Sarkoyo herbal medicine consisted of 12 stages containing science concepts such as homogeneous mixtures, heat transfer, and nutritional content, all of which are relevant to basic junior high school science competencies. Sarkoyo herbal medicine can be reconstructed as an ethnoscience-based science learning resource that integrated biology, chemistry, and physics, and thereby contributing to the improvement of students’ knowledge, the preservation of Madurese local wisdom, and the implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum in schools, ultimately strengthening students' character and scientific literacy.
