Abstract

This study introduces an educational game designed to enhance students' understanding of the rice supply chain in Semarang City. The primary research objective is to provide an interactive learning tool that immerses players in the complexities of the supply chain, from rice cultivation to consumer delivery, while highlighting the roles of various stakeholders and the impact of government interventions. The study employs a qualitative approach, using interactive model to integrate case study analysis and educational game development. Data collection involves semi-structured interviews with key stakeholders and field visits, while thematic and comparative analyses are used to evaluate supply chain dynamics. By incorporating real-world examples of supply chain optimization, the game provides students with hands-on experience in analyzing market dynamics, resource allocation, and technological advancements in agribusiness. This approach not only deepens engagement with complex economic structures but also prepares students for careers in logistics, policy-making, and sustainable enterprise development.

Abstract

This community engagement program aimed to enhance the capacity of Indonesian migrant workers’ microenterprises in Kuala Lumpur through training and implementation of Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) and Quality Control (QC). Based on a preliminary survey, most business owners lacked fundamental skills in production management and quality control, resulting in inconsistent product quality. The program was conducted on May 18, 2025, involving 35 microenterprise participants. Activities included theoretical training and practical simulations on SOP development and QC application. Evaluation was carried out through pre-tests and post-tests, which revealed a significant improvement in the participants' average score from 45.25 to 83.75, with the most notable increase observed in the ability to draft QC guidelines. The results demonstrated that the application of SOP and QC can effectively improve product consistency, quality, and competitiveness. However, challenges remained in the implementation process, such as time constraints, limited equipment, and low technical literacy. Therefore, follow-up strategies such as ongoing mentorship, the use of visual SOPs, and the establishment of peer learning communities are essential to ensure sustainability.
