A technocreativity learning model based on environmental volunteers for waste management

Can it support green campus and green entrepreneurship for students?

Abstract

The present condition of waste management in Indonesia has a negative impact on the environment. This study aimed to: (1) develop a technocreativity learning model based on environmental volunteers for waste management to support Green Campus and Green Entrepreneurship for students; and (2) evaluate the effectiveness of the technocreativity learning model. The research method used is the Research and Development (R&D) method with the ADDIE model (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation). Data collection techniques is used questionnaires, observation, documentation from the implementation of environmental volunteers. Data analysis was carried out by analyzing quantitative data utilizing tabulation analysis, percentages, and graphical representation. According to the findings of the study, the development of the technocreativity learning model based on environmental volunteers for waste management to support Green Campus and Green Entrepreneurship for students is still in early stages.  These stages consist of an initial briefing for students, collecting trash, waste sorting, waste processing for the manufacture (biomol, eco-enzyme, ecobrick, organic fertilizer, briquettes), waste processing, and waste profits.  The technocreativity learning model based on environmental volunteers for waste management is effective for supporting Green Campus and Green Entrepreneurship for students, because the longer an individual has been a member of an environmental volunteer group, the higher they interest in participating in Green Campus activities. Moreover, the longer a person has been a member of the environmental volunteer group, the more likely they are to become a Green Entrepreneur for waste management in university.
