Abstract

The research focuses on the development and implementation of the EcoViber application to address plastic waste management in school environments, specifically at SDN Perdopo 02. The study aims to tackle the issue of plastic waste accumulation through technological solutions, enhancing environmental awareness and operational efficiency. The application employs the waterfall method for development and features data collection, visualization, and educational tools to promote transparency and accountability. Comprehensive observations and interviews with seven teachers revealed significant improvements in waste management, with approximately 54.95 kg of plastic waste collected from January to April 2024. The findings highlight the practical implications of EcoViber in fostering a culture of environmental stewardship among school stakeholders. Despite its success, the study acknowledges potential biases in data reporting and the limited generalizability of results due to the focus on a single school. Future research should explore diverse settings and refine methodologies to enhance the scalability and long-term impact of EcoViber. Overall, the study demonstrates EcoViber's value as an innovative and effective solution for sustainable plastic waste management in educational settings.
