KECERDASAN EKOLOGIS DALAM BUKU SEKOLAH ELEKTRONIK MATA PELAJARAN BAHASA INDONESIA SMP

Abstract

This study aims to explain ecological intelligence contents in electronic Indonesian
language course books for junior high school (JHS) students. The methods in the study
were literature review and content analysis. The ecological intelligence contents  in the
books include: (1) identifying ecosystem components; (2) comprehending the functions
and uses of the components; (3) understanding environmental management systems; (4)
understanding environmental values which comprise local wisdom and religious and
normative values; (5) showing concern about environmental destruction and pollution; (6)
adapting behavior to the environment; (7) solving problems arising from environmental
impacts, either individually or collectively; (8) managing/preserving natural resources;
and (9) exploiting the environment positively. The ecological intelligence contents are still
dominated by the cognitive aspect and have not emphasized the comprehension, value
internalization, and application aspects.
