Abstract

Data literacy and environmental awareness are essential competencies for students in responding to contemporary social and environmental challenges. However, the integration of statistical education with real-life environmental contexts remains limited in many secondary schools. This community service program aimed to foster data literacy and environmental awareness among students at SMAN 1 Sipoholon through statistics-based educational activities. The program was conducted on 10 October 2025 and involved 25 participants consisting of students, internal participants, organizers, and a resource person. The implementation was carried out through two main stages: (1) training and capacity building in basic statistical concepts, and (2) reward-based question-and-answer activities to reinforce learning outcomes. Data were collected using pre- and post-activity questionnaires, observation sheets, and analysis of student responses during interactive sessions. The results indicate an improvement in students’ understanding of basic statistical concepts, increased engagement during learning activities, and enhanced awareness of the role of data in interpreting environmental issues. Positive responses from teachers and students highlight the effectiveness of contextual and participatory learning approaches supported by lecturer and university student mentoring. Despite limitations related to time and learning resources, the program demonstrated promising outcomes and offers a replicable model for similar educational contexts. This community service initiative contributes to the promotion of quality education and environmental awareness in alignment with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Abstract

Digital transformation at the village-government level is essential for improving administrative efficiency, data accuracy, institutional accountability, and public information services. Pagar Batu Village, Sipoholon District, North Tapanuli Regency, covers an area of approximately 17.49 km² and is administered by only five village officials. Prior to this community engagement program, population records had been maintained using basic Microsoft Excel worksheets, while document storage lacked standardized classification, file-naming conventions, access restrictions, and systematic backup procedures. This program aimed to strengthen the capacity of village officials to manage, summarize, store, and retrieve population data through the use of Microsoft Excel PivotTables and a structured digital archiving system. The program was implemented through needs assessment, data standardization, preparation of learning materials, hands-on demonstrations, guided practice, product-based assignments, evaluation, and follow-up assistance. The outputs included a standardized population database template, automated population summaries, a classified digital archive structure, file-naming guidelines, access-level classifications, and an operational guide. The program demonstrated that optimizing familiar and readily available digital tools can provide a practical approach to improving population data governance in a village with limited human and technological resources. This initiative contributes primarily to Sustainable Development Goal 16 by supporting effective, accountable, and transparent local institutions, while also contributing to SDGs 4 and 9 through digital capacity development and administrative innovation.
