Abstract

Learning during the Covid 19 pandemic is closely related to online learning and School from Home. Achievement of learning outcomes during this pandemic is no longer focused on material attainment but rather on cultivating the character of students. This study aims to describe the application of ecoliteracy learning in social studies learning during the Covid 19 pandemic by using the concept of zero waste for sustainable development in primary schools. The design of this research is a descriptive qualitative research. Data collection was carried out through observation and documentation and analyzed qualitatively. The results of this study indicate that (1) ecoliteracy learning in social studies learning using the concept of zero waste carried out online through home learning can increase students' care and love for nature and the environment as early as possible. (2) establishing a more harmonious relationship between students and family members. Character planting through social studies learning during the Covid 19 pandemic can run smoothly with good cooperation between teachers and parents.
