Abstract

Increased environmental disasters we are currently experiencing have raised global actions on ecological and sustainable development. UNESCO has called for education for ecological awareness, particularly among school aged children. This research was inspired by such encouragement to incorporate environmental issues into the curriculum. Hence, this study focused on the exploration of marginal children’ ecoliteracy. Ecoliteracy should be instilled in each individual from primary education because children’s intellectual growth as well as behavior molding flourish during this period. In this study, the researcher explored the use of picture books as the media for inviting students to think about their environment. Books about various environmental issues were used in the literacy mentoring program with a group of 10 children living in a marginal community of Sungai Rengas, Kelurahan Pulokerto, Kecamatan Gandus, Sumatera Selatan. Using qualitative case study, the researcher explored how students engaged in literacy learning while developing environmental awareness. Data collection involved interview, artifacts of children’s learning, and observation. Drawing from the framework of ecoliteracy proposed by the Center for Ecoliteracy (2013), the researcher analyzed the data to understand the different aspects of the children’s ecoliteracy. Findings show that children’s works and responses indicated four domains of ecoliteracy, which include the cognitive, emotional, action, and spiritual aspects. It can be concluded that engagement with books and texts with environmental topics helped to foster children’s awareness of environmental issues.
