This study aims to improve the scientific literacy and scientific character of students of prospective primary school teachers through science learning integrated ethnoscience science. This research is an experimental study for students in class A1 and A2 of the PGSD UPY study program. Class A1 is an experimental class that implements science learning integrated ethnoscience and class A2 as a control that implements conventional learning. This type of research data consists of scientific literacy data and student scientific characters. Scientific literacy data was collected using tests and analyzed using N-gain, while scientific character data were collected using observation sheets and analyzed by descriptive percentages. The results of the study show that science learning integrated ethnoscience can improve students’ scientific literacy with a gain score of 0.81 which is included in the high category. The average score of students’ scientific character in science learning integrated ethnoscience is in the high category, where the average score of scientific characters in each aspect at each meeting is > 70%.
