The ASAM.ID Application as a Learning Media for Environmental Literacy

Abstract

Garbage is a crucial problem that must be resolved by all parties, including universities. Universities can contribute to efforts to increase community literacy in waste management through the development of learning applications. This paper aimed to describe the ASAM.ID application development process and its feasibility to be used as an alternative learning media in increasing students’ environmental literacy in waste management. The application development process began with making flowcharts and developing application designs and content. The validation results of content and media experts showed that the ASAM.ID application can be used as an alternative learning media to increase students’ environmental literacy. This study recommends this application be tested in science learning to see its effectiveness and implemented on a broader scale.


Keywords: ASAM.ID Application, Learning Media, Environmental Literacy
