Abstract

This study aims to analyze the capacity of agricultural instructors in developing cyber extension media, which consists of the characteristics of cyber extension media, cyber extension media design, characteristics of self-help extension workers, and the capacity of self-help agricultural extension workers, as well as analyzing the factors that affect the ability of extension workers in developing cyber media. This research uses quantitative research through a survey method. Data analysis was carried out descriptively and inferentially using Structural Equation Models. Correlational prescriptive results explored about 108 informants. The results of SEM modelling show a direct and indirect effect on the ability of independent agricultural instructors to develop CE media. So it can be said that there is an influence of media characteristics, media design, characteristics of self-help extension workers, and the capacity of self-help agricultural instructors on agricultural instructors' performance. The correlation test results have a significant relationship between the utilization of Cyber Extension by agricultural extension workers and the capability of agricultural extension workers to have an excellent significant value.

Abstract

The Home Learning Program (BDR) or Distance Learning (PJJ) is very appropriate to implement during the Covid-19 pandemic as an effort so that the learning process can continue. This study aims to view differences in students' science learning outcomes in the energy source material between those using the Online and Offline Distance Learning systems. This type of research is quasi-experimental, with sample selection using sample probability with a simple random sampling method. The data collection instrument in this study used a test and was analyzed using a two-way ANOVA test. The result of data analysis showed that there significant differences between the science learning outcomes of elementary school students in the energy source materials using the match and offline systems. The results showed that the average score obtained by the group of elementary school students who taught using the Online Distance Learning system, which was 78.41, was higher than the average score obtained by the group of students taught by the Offline Distance Learning system, which was 72.66. Based on the average value of the two treatments, it can be interpreted that the learning outcomes of elementary school students using the Online Distance Learning system are better compared to the learning outcomes of elementary students using the Offline Distance Learning system for science learning outcomes. This research can be developed by educators at the elementary school level to maximize distance learning from home learning to increase elementary school students' knowledge during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Abstract

This study explores the concept of community education, emphasizing the role of tutors in facilitating effective learning experiences for adults. Community education empowers individuals by enhancing their knowledge, skills, and awareness of societal issues. Tutors play a crucial role in this process, employing various teaching strategies to engage learners and cater to their needs. However, challenges exist, including tutor qualifications, teaching consistency, and adult learning management. The study introduces the concept of Andragogy, which focuses on empowering adults in their learning journey, considering their real-life circumstances and learning preferences. Andragogy highlights the importance of interactive teaching methods, enjoyable programs, and personalized approaches. The research develops an interactive multimedia Andragogy (MIA) module using the Multimedia Development Life Cycle (MDLC) model. This module aims to enhance community education tutors' teaching capabilities for adult learners. Survey data analysis reveals that the MIA Module significantly improves participants' media literacy comprehension and information access skills. The module's learner-centered approach and interactive design align with educational theories like experiential learning and constructivism, promoting active engagement and critical thinking. Moreover, the module's adaptability and flexible learning strategies resonate with Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principles, ensuring inclusivity. The study highlights the positive impact of the MIA Module on enhancing media literacy and information access skills within the context of community education. The module's design, adaptability, and interactive elements make it relevant and effective in contemporary education.

Abstract

In Indonesia, where cultural sensitivities and varying levels of awareness about sexual health exist, the need for tailored, culturally appropriate education is paramount. The Indonesian Red Cross (PMI) plays a pivotal role in community health initiatives, including sexual reproductive health education, by leveraging its wide network of volunteers. These volunteers are often on the frontline, engaging directly with the community, including adolescents, who are at a critical stage of developing attitudes and behaviors regarding their health. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a sexual reproductive health training program for Indonesian Red Cross (PMI) volunteers in Langkat and Jombang districts, employing a mixed-methods approach based on the Kirkpatrick four-level evaluation model. The study utilizes an evaluative methodology with the Kirkpatrick model, involving data collection techniques through surveys, tests, interviews, and observations. It applies purposive sampling to 65 training participants, focusing on individuals who meet specific and relevant criteria. Data analysis is tailored to each level of Kirkpatrick's evaluation: Reaction, Learning, Behavior, and Results. Findings indicate a high level of participant satisfaction with the training material and its delivery, as well as an increase in knowledge and skills regarding adolescent sexual reproductive health. Despite significant improvements, the study identifies areas requiring enhancement. Evaluation success criteria were set using a Likert scale, allowing for objective and standardized measurement. The training program successfully enhanced the awareness and skills of PMI volunteers in addressing adolescent sexual reproductive health issues. This study provides essential insights for future improvements and development of training programs, emphasizing the importance of a comprehensive approach that involves technical, interpersonal, cultural aspects, and self-reflection in adolescent reproductive health education.

Abstract

The lack of formal job access and limited employment sectors in rural areas have increased unemployment and poverty rates. Expanding rural entrepreneurship is a potential solution to create job opportunities and increase rural communities' income. Therefore, a comprehensive strategy needs to be developed to strengthen social capital and support the sustainability of Village-Owned Enterprises (BUMDes). This research examines efforts to build entrepreneurship in the village environment through innovations implemented in BUMDes. It explores innovative strategies used by BUMDes to enhance the village's economic potential, focusing on developing local businesses, empowering the community, and improving access to resources. The research methods used include surveys, interviews, and quantitative data analysis. The results show that BUMDes and their partners have a good relationship, and BUMDes managers regularly communicate with their partners. However, BUMDes managers must also establish good communication with community members and local leaders. If BUMDes managers can build strong relationships with village residents, they will find it easier to obtain support, information, and helpful advice for managing BUMDes. BUMDes managers are categorized as having a high level of support for those in the community who have difficulty accessing business capital loans. Furthermore, the results of the path analysis reveal that there is no statistically significant relationship between the variables of experience (X1), motivation (X1), ICT media role (X3), and social capital capacity (Y1). This means that in the context of this study, these three independent variables do not significantly impact social capital capacity (Y1). These findings can guide the government, community, and relevant stakeholders in supporting efforts to build rural entrepreneurship through BUMDes innovations.

Abstract

Background -. Educational disparities, dropout rates, and limited PKBM (Community Learning Center) management capacity remain key challenges. This study takes Bekasi Regency—an urban–semi-urban area with strong entrepreneurial commitment—as its research locus. Research Urgency - Strengthening the managerial and entrepreneurial capacity of PKBM leaders is crucial to sustaining Indonesia’s non-formal education ecosystem. Despite the government’s focus on lifelong learning and community empowerment, many PKBMs struggle to operate independently due to weak institutional management, limited innovation, and low digital adaptation. Addressing this issue is urgent to ensure that community-based education remains relevant, financially viable, and aligned with the goals of inclusive human development in the digital era. Research Objective - This study aims to analyze the effect of entrepreneurial competencies on the empowerment of PKBM managers in Bekasi Regency, and to identify generational patterns in management practices. The research further seeks to propose a competency-based empowerment model that integrates entrepreneurial skills, innovation, and digital networking to enhance the sustainability of community learning centers. Research Methods - This study uses a sequential explanatory mixed-methods design to examine the relationship between entrepreneurial competencies and PKBM managers’ empowerment in Bekasi Regency. Quantitative data from 50 purposively sampled managers were analyzed using CFA and PLS-SEM, while qualitative interviews provided contextual insights, validated through triangulation Research Findings - Entrepreneurial competencies show a strong positive association with PKBM managers’ empowerment (path coefficient = 0.971, p < 0.001), accounting for 94.2% of the variance explained by the model. The analysis also indicates a generational divide: senior managers (>7 years’ experience) tend to rely on trial-and-error approaches (78%), whereas junior managers (<3 years) display higher levels of innovation (92%) but face limitations in professional networking Research Conclusion  - This study demonstrates that entrepreneurial competencies significantly strengthen the empowerment of PKBM (Community Learning Center) managers, while revealing a generational management gap - senior managers rely more on traditional approaches whereas junior managers exhibit greater innovation but face networking constraints. The findings underscore the importance of implementing financial training, cross-generational mentoring, and digital network strengthening programs to transform PKBMs into self-sufficient institutions that support national educational development, with further research needed to adapt this model across different regions by accounting for local contextual factors and technological integration Research Novelty/ Contribution - This study proposes a competency-based empowerment model for PKBM managers that demonstrates empirical validity within the research context, while acknowledging limitations related to sample size, geographic scope, and reliance on self-reported data. Its practical contribution lies in offering a context-specific intervention framework tailored for urban–semi-urban areas in developing countries. By bridging theory with field implementation, the study provides both theoretical insights and applied relevance for strengthening non-formal education in Indonesia, particularly in addressing management challenges faced by community learning centers.
