“…These multi-literacies have become part of the discussion on the fundamental skills to be developed and practiced in schools [11][12]. There are also other skills that could be equally essential to prepare future professionals, such as ecoliteracy [13][14], concerned with understanding different practices and their impact on the environment and improving them. Visual literacy is part of one of the four abilities for the 21st century identified by the North Central Regional Education Laboratory (NCREL).…”

This paper presents research results that aid in understanding how photography can become a tool for iterative thinking as a mode of reflection. The research was conducted in three phases. The first consisted of a specific task: after reading assigned materials from different sources, PhD students had to take a photograph as a visual reading-report. In the second phase, all the created images were presented and discussed during class. In the last stage, the students talked about their experience through in-depth interviews. The findings showed that visual awareness linked observation and reflection at the same time, since the students were continually looking for ordinary objects to carry new meanings that were relatable to specific arguments and ideas expressed in the reading materials. Hence, visual awareness is understood in this paper as a mode of visual perception that enables a process of thinking iteratively about a particular topic. The photographic camera was identified as a thinking tool that could be a valuable device to incorporate into educational activities. Finally, in addition to practicing iterative thinking, students expressed feeling engaged and motivated, enjoying this activity, and embracing the challenge.

“…Current development progress is dangerous if it is not accompanied by environmental awareness. Humans tend to use natural resources indiscriminately without regard to the impact they cause (Dewberry, 2016;Ds, 2020;Fadjarajani & As'ari, 2021;Hartono, 2020;Lees, 2017;Lopez-Leon & Encino-Muñoz, 2020;McBride et al ., 2013;Muliana et al, 2018;Noviana et al, 2019;Nurlaili et al, 2020;Seidl, 2021Seidl, , 2021Snow, 2020). To create an environmentally friendly society, it is necessary to instill environmental awareness in the younger generation from an early age.…”

This research is motivated by the low level of eco-literacy of elementary school students. This study aims to improve students' eco-literacy skills by using the eco-literacy module. The method used in this study is an experimental method with the object of research being 40 students The sample chosen was 40 respondents consisting of 18 male students and 22 female students of Karangsambung III State Elementary School, Kadipaten District, Majalengka Regency, West Java Province. The instrument used tests and non-tests, to measure knowledge consisting of 20 questions, and to measure attitudes used attitude observation sheets, and the psychomotor instrument used performance tests. Data analysis techniques in this study used the independent sample t-test with a significance level of 0.05. In addition, to find out how much the level of effectiveness of using the eco-literacy module has on students' ecological abilities, the researchers conducted the Cohen's d test. The results showed that the use of the eco-literacy module could improve the eco-literacy ability of elementary school students. The increase in ability is influenced by the activities of students and teachers in the learning process in the classroom. The eco-literacy module has a positive impact on students so that students become enthusiastic about learning so they don't feel bored when studying the material. Based on the research results, other schools need to implement eco-literacy-based learning modules in an effort to form better ecological literacy and the ability to solve environmental problems
