If you don't want jquery then you can do it with javascript :-

@Html.DropDownList("Sortby", new SelectListItem[] 
{ 
     new SelectListItem() { Text = "Newest to Oldest", Value = "0" }, 
     new SelectListItem() { Text = "Oldest to Newest", Value = "1" }},
     new { @onchange="callChangefunc(this.value)" 
});
