Abstract

This community service activity aimed to improve instructors' skills in writing scientific articles and English presentations to strengthen their participation in international seminars. The main problems identified were instructors' poor ability to write articles that adhere to scientific principles and limited academic presentation skills in English. The activity was implemented in three stages: planning, implementation, and evaluation. The training methods used included guided writing, concept presentations, hands-on practice, and intensive mentoring. Evaluation was conducted through pre- and post-tests, practical performance assessments, and participant satisfaction questionnaires. The training results showed significant improvements in knowledge and skills. The average post-test score for participants increased compared to the pre-test, indicating an improved understanding of scientific writing structure and presentation techniques. Eighty-five percent of participants were able to produce complete drafts of scientific articles and demonstrated improved skills in preparing and delivering academic presentations in English, including aspects of delivery, fluency, and slide design. Furthermore, the participant satisfaction rate reached 92%, indicating that the training materials and strategies were considered relevant and beneficial for their professional development. However, this activity still has limitations, particularly related to the training duration and the variation in participants' initial abilities. Overall, this program is effective in improving the academic competency of instructors and has the potential to be replicated on a wider scale to support the continuous increase in scientific publications and international participation.

Abstract

The development of a culture-based and sustainable fashion industry has opened up new opportunities in men's fashion design. However, the exploration of men's fashion that integrates traditional cultural elements and environmentally friendly concepts is still relatively limited. This study aims to design ready-to-wear men's clothing inspired by the Kretek Kudus dance, applying weaving techniques and the neo-eco concept as a sustainable approach. The research method used is development research by applying the ADDIE model, which includes the stages of analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. The Kudus Kretek Dance is used as a source of visual and philosophical ideas, while weaving is applied as an aesthetic element as well as a cultural character enhancer in clothing. The design results are manifested in a set of men's clothing consisting of an outer, shirt, pants, and sarong. Product feasibility testing was conducted by three expert panelists using six assessment indicators. The assessment results showed that the indicators of aesthetics, clothing performance, and uniqueness were in the highly feasible category, while the indicators of design, size, and sewing technique were in the feasible category. These findings indicate that the integration of the cultural elements of the Kretek dance, weaving, and the neo-eco concept can produce men's clothing that is aesthetic, functional, and sustainable.
