Integrating Ecotheology into Biology Instruction Through The Digitalization of Environmental Information Based on Campus Trees

Abstract

The global environmental crisis, marked by climate change, ecosystem degradation, and declining biodiversity, demands an educational transformation capable of fostering learners' sustainable ecological awareness. Within Islamic education, ecotheology emerged as a paradigm integrating religious values with human responsibility for environmental preservation. This article aimed to analyze the conceptual integration of ecotheology into Biology learning through the digitalization of environmental information based on campus trees. The study used a literature review method with a conceptual approach, drawing on scientific articles published between 2018 and 2025, analyzed through data reduction, classification, synthesis, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicated that Biology learning held a strategic position in strengthening students' environmental literacy using the campus environment as a contextual learning resource. The digitalization of environmental information through barcode/QR Code systems on campus trees enabled the simultaneous integration of technology, environmental conservation, and ecotheological values, while supporting biodiversity literacy and the development of a green campus culture in higher education.
