Abstract

This study explores the implementation of waste-management-based contextual learning
strategies through Teacher-Working Groups (KKG) in Yogyakarta. The purpose of this study was
to examine how contextual strategies with waste management materials are implemented at
schools. Using a qualitative approach with a case study design, this study investigated the
planning, media, challenges, and implementation of waste management materials in five
elementary schools in Sleman. The data collection process included in-depth interviews with
teachers and members of KKG MI Sleman, observation during learning activities, and
documentation. The findings indicate that waste-management-based contextual learning
strategies have been successfully integrated into KKG MI Sleman agenda, with five schools
already implementing waste management materials across various subjects such as Science,
Civics, Fine Arts, and Environmental Science. Teachers have introduced the 3R concept (reuse,
reduce, recycle), which was tailored to the needs and learning outcomes listed in the learning
modules for children. Despite challenges related to infrastructure, consistency of teacher
activities, and strategy implementation; teacher awareness of waste management, and teacher
coordination within the KKG significantly improved.
