Abstract

Local wisdom of Keluru Village community for managing plant diversity in Temedak traditional forest could be internalized well through learning activity by using meaningful teaching materials in learning biology, especially those related to biodiversity utilization and strategies in biodiversity conservation. This study aimed to develop teaching materials based on ethnobotany local wisdom in the Temedak forest. The method in this study was descriptive qualitative. The design of teaching materials development used for the ADDIE approach. The subjects in this study were the community and traditional leaders of Keluru Village. The instruments used by the researcher for collecting the data were interview guides, field notes of observations, and the feasibility of teaching materials consist of content, graphics, presentation, and language based on the National Education Standards Agency (BSNP). The results indicated that the development of teaching materials which included local wisdom showed good and feasible in terms of material with a value of 85.13% (valid) and also feasible in terms of graphics with a value of 88.98% (valid). The conclusion was ethnobotany based local wisdom teaching materials in the Temedak forest could be applied in biology learning.
