Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of utilizing plastic waste from Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) as a creative collage medium to increase environmental awareness among early childhood students. Using a quantitative quasi-experimental method with a pretest-posttest control group design, this research involved 8 children aged 5–12 years from two early childhood education institutions in Bengkulu. The experimental group received environmental education using creative collages made from MSME plastic waste, while the control group used conventional media. Data were collected using an environmental awareness scale and analyzed using paired and independent t-tests. The results showed a significant increase in the environmental awareness scores of the experimental group compared to the control group (p < 0.05). This study concludes that integrating recycled materials from MSME plastic waste into creative learning activities significantly enhances environmental consciousness among young children.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the amount of cost, income, profit, and the level of business feasibility of the cracker production, as well as to identify the problems faced in managing the business. According to Kasmir and Jakfar, a feasibility study is essential to assess the extent to which a business can provide benefits to investors and related stakeholders. A feasibility study is a crucial stage that cannot be overlooked, as it serves to compare the costs incurred with the benefits obtained. This research employs a qualitative descriptive method with an approach based on actual field conditions. Data were collected through observation and interviews. The financial aspect analysis was conducted using the Payback Period (PP), Net Present Value (NPV), Internal Rate of Return (IRR), and Profitability Index (PI) methods. The object of this study is the Putri Sulung Cracker Factory, established in 2009 by Mr. Sudarso and managed independently without involving employees. The main objective of establishing this business was to support the family’s economy and take advantage of market opportunities for traditional snack products. The analysis results show that the PP value in 2023 was 3.753 years and decreased to 2.496 years in 2024, indicating that the investment return period is relatively long. The NPV value was IDR 230,516,003 (positive), PI was 7.683, and IRR reached 15.02. These three indicators demonstrate that the business provides benefits to investors and has growth potential. Based on these results, it can be concluded that the Putri Sulung Cracker Factory business is feasible to operate and has a high potential for financial profitability.
