Abstract

The backdrop of this research is the low level of Indonesian Moslem students’ science literacy. Studies indicated that one of the reasons is due to the students’ lack of interest to scientific study. Whereas, in the middle age Islam had reached to glory of scientific Moslem scholars whose inventories have been being used by many modern scientists and as the foundation for the development of modern science. This research aims to explore Islamic school stakeholders’ perspectives toward Islam and science integration to improve students’ science literacy. The data were taken from twelve schools in East Java: Malang and Lamongan, through interview, non-participant observation, questionnaire and ethnographic video. The result of the research reveals that (1) Islam integration toward Science education are expected to be implemented in by Islamic schools’ stakeholders; (2) the integration of Islam and Science has been addressed in Indonesian National Curriculum 2013, but the implementation has not been optimally applied in the schools; and (3) Islamic education stakeholders agree that Islamic integration toward science education leads to the improvement of students’ science literacy in Islamic junior high school in East Java.
