Abstract

Waste is the result of human activities that cannot be used anymore. Waste that is not managed properly can cause disease. The volume of waste in Bantul reached 2 190 t d-1 and experienced an increase in 2016 amounting to 2 299.29 t d-1. The Aims of this study to compare the method of demonstration of three-dimensional trash with conventional. Settings and Design of this study was a quasi-experimental design with a non equievalent control group. Methods and Material: as many as 30 respondents for each group. Data from the study were analyzed using the test Mann-Whitney with a confidence level of 95 %. The results of the study showed an increase in knowledge, attitudes and practices in the experimental group and there were differences in knowledge, practices between the experimental and control groups. Conclusions of the study, there are different demonstration methods using three trash bins with conventional trash cans to the meaningful knowledge and practice of sorting trash from the Al-Qur'an Mosque Education Park children, while those in attitudes are not meaningful. It is recommended that the management of the Al-Qur'an Mosque Education Park use a three-dimensional trash can as an intermediary so that the children of the Al-Qur'an Education Park get used to sorting and disposing of garbage in its place.
