Analysis of the Potential of Citizen Science Projects In Supporting Biodiversity Learning
Abstract
Conservation actions for biodiversity in Indonesia are significant to carry out. Action is needed to integrate local communities in learning to support conservation. Therefore, it is essential to analyze the potential of citizen science projects in studying biodiversity. This research aims to provide an overview of the potential of citizen science projects and the conditions for learning about biodiversity in schools. The research is classified as descriptive qualitative. Data collection techniques using random sampling and data collection using interviews, distributing questionnaires, and literature studies. The results obtained show that citizen science projects have great potential in supporting biodiversity learning in Indonesia. Students and teachers agree to support citizen science project innovation in meaningful and enjoyable learning.
