Abstract

Pediculus humanus capitisĀ (head lice) is an obligate ectoparasite. Preparation of specimens is a procedure carried out to accurately preserve, identify, and analyze head lice. The Palangka Raya Biology Teachers Forum (MGMP) has collaborated with the Community Service Team of the Biology Study Program. This activity aims to improve high school Biology teachers' skills in preserving Pediculus humanus capitis (morphological observation and identification). This provides a solution to make school laboratory practicals more attractive, as preserved specimens can be stored and used long-term. The activity was offline at the PPIIG Building Laboratory, Palangka Raya University, in August 2023. The activity included lectures, discussions, training, and pre-test and post-test evaluation. The evaluation results show an increase in scores after the training, with an average pre-test score of 50.00 increasing to 80.33 in the post-test. It can be concluded that participants' knowledge increased after attending this training.

Abstract

The conflict between Long-tailed Monkeys and the villagers of Tumbang Tahai Village is a significant issue that must be addressed. Two hundred long-tailed monkeys colonies have infiltrated communities, causing damage and disruption to the facilities of the villagers. It is widely acknowledged that enhancing community education is critical in addressing the challenges afflicting Tumbang Tahai Village. This activity aims to enhance the knowledge and understanding of the villagers of Tumbang Tahai Village regarding managing and resolving conflicts with long-tailed monkeys, including strategies for responding to bites or assaults and initiatives to reduce conflict. Residents of RT 3 / RW 1 Tumbang Tahai Village, Bukit Batu District, Palangka Raya City, Central Kalimantan, comprised the implementing partners. The method utilised in Community Service is Participatory Action Research (PAR), which aims to empower community members to become agents of change through knowledge acquisition. On Wednesday, October 25, 2023, community service activities were conducted at the SDN 03 Tumbang Tahai. These activities consisted of multiple stages: observation, preparation, implementation, and evaluation. Activities include distributing materials on conflict prevention and the risk of zoonotic transmission, discussion, seed distribution for monitoring purposes, and assessment via surveys, pre-tests, and post-tests. The evaluation results demonstrated a discernible enhancement in knowledge after the training. On average, the post-test score rose from 51% on the pre-test to 97.5%. This indicates that the participants' understanding of conflict resolution and zoonotic improved after their participation in the socialisation program.
