“…Education opens the door to broader opportunities, helps individuals understand the world, and prepares them to face future challenges (Budhia & Behera, 2023). Through the educational process, values such as cooperation, curiosity, and selfresilience are instilled, helping to form responsible citizens who contribute positively to society (Solé et al, 2023). By understanding the importance of education as a foundation for social, economic, and cultural progress, we can realize a better vision for a better future.…”

The importance of 21st-century skills, especially collaboration and communication skills, is increasingly emphasized in the era of globalization and the Industrial Revolution 4.0. However, there is a gap in measuring these skills in Indonesia's sports education context. This research aims to develop and validate a new instrument to measure collaboration and communication skills in sports learning effectively. Exploratory and Confirmatory Factor Analysis was used to identify and validate collaboration and communication skills factors. This research involved 510 students from Palangkaraya, Lamandau, Seruyan, Pulang Pisau, Kapuas, Buntok, Sampit, and Murung Raya with a total of 8 regions in Indonesia. The research results show that the instrument developed has good validity and reliability. Evaluation of scale characteristics and confirmatory factor analysis demonstrated the reliable quality of the instrument for measuring collaboration and communication skills in the context of sports learning. Through the development of this instrument, it is hoped that it can significantly contribute to the understanding of collaboration and communication skills in sports learning in Indonesia. Hopefully, this instrument will become a valuable tool for educators, researchers, and practitioners to measure and develop these skills and provide a basis for improving the quality of sports education in Indonesia. Keywords: skills, collaboration, communication, validation.

“…School communities are particularly receptive to CS projects, specially when these enable the creation of scientific experiments for students and their involvement in decision-making processes regarding the improvement of environmental conditions [ 29 ]. In a recent literature review focusing CS initiatives in school contexts, Solé et al [ 30 ] highlight the importance of including formal education objectives in CS projects to fully achieve the development of students’ skills. Different examples of CS-based studies focusing on air quality and students’ exposure to air contaminants can be found in the literature: Grossberndt et al [ 31 ] coordinated CS projects in two Norwegian high schools, where students were asked to develop their own research project on the topic of air quality.…”

Indoor air quality (IAQ) problems in school environments are very common and have significant impacts on students’ performance, development and health. Indoor air conditions depend on the adopted ventilation practices, which in Mediterranean countries are essentially based on natural ventilation controlled through manual window opening. Citizen science projects directed to school communities are effective strategies to promote awareness and knowledge acquirement on IAQ and adequate ventilation management. Our multidisciplinary research team has developed a framework—SchoolAIR—based on low-cost sensors and a scalable IoT system architecture to support the improvement of IAQ in schools. The SchoolAIR framework is based on do-it-yourself sensors that continuously monitor air temperature, relative humidity, concentrations of carbon dioxide and particulate matter in school environments. The framework was tested in the classrooms of University Fernando Pessoa, and its deployment and proof of concept took place in a high school in the north of Portugal. The results obtained reveal that CO2 concentrations frequently exceed reference values during classes, and that higher concentrations of particulate matter in the outdoor air affect IAQ. These results highlight the importance of real-time monitoring of IAQ and outdoor air pollution levels to support decision-making in ventilation management and assure adequate IAQ. The proposed approach encourages the transfer of scientific knowledge from universities to society in a dynamic and active process of social responsibility based on a citizen science approach, promoting scientific literacy of the younger generation and enhancing healthier, resilient and sustainable indoor environments.
