Abstract

The formation of akhlakul karimah (noble character) is an important aspect of children's education in Islamic teachings, which includes good moral and ethical values. This study is based on the aim to explore the effectiveness of mosque-centered activities in fostering these values among children. The background of this study highlights the important role of mosques in guiding children towards good morals through various religious activities. The methodology of this paper is based on Participatory Action Research (PAR) which involves active collaboration with community members in the planning, implementation, and evaluation of the program. This approach includes counseling and training on akhlakul karimah values, organizing religious activities such as calligraphy, hadrah, qiro'ah, and Qur'an reading, increasing parental and community involvement, and conducting ongoing evaluations to assess the impact of the program. The findings of the study revealed that the mosque-centered approach plays an effective role in fostering positive attitudes and behaviors among children. Mosque-centered activities can also provide a positive impression to the community about the importance of prospering the mosque. The results of this study are expected to provide an understanding of how religious institutions such as mosques can play an important role in the moral and ethical development of children through community involvement and active participation.

Abstract

This study focuses on evaluating the effectiveness of tempe-based culinary training programs in improving the nutritional status of toddlers and empowering the local economy in Jati Sumberlawang village, Indonesia. The main objective of this research is to identify how tempe, a locally available and nutritious food, can be optimized as a supplementary food (PMT) to address malnutrition among toddlers while also providing economic benefits to the community. A qualitative research method with a case study approach was employed, involving in-depth interviews, participant observations, and documentation analysis. Data were collected from 20 mothers who participated in the training and were analyzed using thematic analysis to identify key patterns and outcomes. The results indicate a significant improvement in the mothers' knowledge and skills in processing tempe into various child-friendly dishes, which led to increased acceptance and consumption among toddlers. Additionally, some participants began commercializing tempe-based products, leading to increased household income. The implications of this study suggest that community-based culinary training can serve as an effective model for improving child nutrition and promoting local economic development. This research highlights the potential for replicating similar programs in other rural communities facing similar nutritional challenges.
