In response to the challenges as mentioned above, this study aimed at
developing the learning module to enhance knowledge and promote awareness
toward firefly conservation, and promote students’ behaviors for firefly’s habitats
and their ecosystems. This learning module was designed based on the inquiry
approach, scientific investigation, and community-based principle. This study also
concerned the impacts of the newly developed learning module on pedagogic
practices and students’ performance.
An inquiry approach was applied in the learning module’s development and
implementation. These are the learning module to learn about, in, and for
environment, as suggested by Lucas (1979). This learning module is integrated the
knowledge learned from school together with the knowledge gained from outside
school. Through these learning modules, students will hopefully develop the
suitable actions for their ecosystems.
This study attempted to develop learning module based on both the principle of
inquiry approaches and the collaboration of a community of learners. In the learning
module the students are made to experience a diversity of instructional activities
including participating in a community of learners both within and outside their
schools. The expected outcomes from this learning are (a) enhanced knowledge by
which students can learn to balance environmental science concepts and practice in
the community, (b) awareness of the local environmental situations, and (c) ability
to take actions in conserving the environment.
Objectives
The objectives of this study were as follow.
1. To develop the firefly learning module for environmentally responsible
and sustainable choices for lower secondary school students to improve
their conceptual understanding on ecosystems, and awareness of
ecosystems and firefly conservation.
2. To investigate the effectiveness of the learning module on students’
achievement and perceptions.
Research Questions
Based on the objectives, the study addressed the following research questions:
1. Can the newly developed learning module promote lower secondary
school students’ conceptual understanding on firefly conservation and
their local ecosystems?
2. How do lower secondary school students perceive the learning module
based on their experiences of the educational activities?
3. Do students become more aware of ecosystems and firefly after exposure
to the learning module?
4. Is there any change in students’ behavior firefly conservation and their
local ecosystems?
