Ethnoscience Research on Nira Processing in Science

Abstract

This study is based on a restricted reconstruction of the real science that emerged in society and transformed into a branch of knowledge that students can use on their own to learn. Since no one has thoroughly studied this subject, research on "Ethnoscience Studies in Science Learning" is essential. This study should be kept since it can be learned about and taken into account while creating science education. The goal of this research is to convert the community's nira processing knowledge into scientific knowledge. It does this by explaining the natural science knowledge necessary to convert the nira processing knowledge into scientific knowledge. The descriptive qualitative method was employed in this investigation. Following the collection of research data, analysis of the data included data reduction, data visualization, and conclusion/verification. (1) There is a correlation between traditional knowledge held by the community and (2) scientific understanding in the processing of nira, particularly when it comes to combined materials, additives, and substances and their properties.
