Abstract

Rice husk is an agricultural waste that is still underutilized, even though it has great potential as a raw material for making charcoal briquettes. This study aims to examine the potential for utilizing rice husk as charcoal briquettes and to educate the people of Kertamulya Village about the manufacturing techniques. The method used in this study is a descriptive method with a socialization approach and direct training to the local community. The briquette making process involves several stages, namely burning the husk using the pyrolysis method, mixing with natural adhesives, molding, and drying. The results of the experiment showed that the composition of the mixture of materials and the right drying method greatly affect the quality of the briquettes produced. Briquettes with a ratio of 100 grams of starch, 1 kg of charcoal powder, and 400 ml of hot water gave the best results with stable combustion and long-lasting embers. In addition to contributing to reducing agricultural waste, this innovation also has economic value by opening up business opportunities for the community. Therefore, the use of rice husk as charcoal briquettes can be an environmentally friendly and sustainable alternative solution in supporting energy security and the welfare of rural communities.

Abstract

Traffic accidents involving four-wheeled vehicles constitute a complex problem influenced by multiple factors, including vehicle speed and traffic density. Accurate accident-risk assessment is essential to support preventive and control efforts on road networks. This study aims to design and implement an accident-risk evaluation model based on a Mamdani-type Fuzzy Inference System (FIS) to accommodate uncertainty in decision-making. The research procedure includes identifying input and output variables, constructing membership functions, fuzzification, formulating fuzzy rules, and performing inference and defuzzification. Testing results indicate that, for a combination of 80 km/h speed and 70 vehicles/km density, the centroid defuzzification method yields a risk value of 25.31%. This value falls within the low-to-moderate risk category. These findings suggest that the developed Mamdani FIS model is effective as a methodological approach for accident-risk evaluation.

Abstract

Students’ difficulties in understanding mathematical concepts, particularly negative integer operations, are often rooted in teacher-centered instructional practices that provide limited opportunities for conceptual exploration and active engagement. This study aimed to develop and evaluate interactive mathematics learning media based on Canva for Education to enhance students’ conceptual understanding. Employing a Research and Development (R&D) approach guided by the ADDIE model, the study was conducted through five stages: analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. The analysis stage involved diagnostic testing, classroom observations, and a review of school readiness, revealing that 65.62% of students experienced conceptual difficulties. The developed product was an interactive PowerPoint-based learning medium that focused on conceptual visualization, guided examples, and interactive quizzes. Expert validation confirmed high content validity and instructional quality, while revisions were made to improve interactivity and technical usability. The implementation involved a classroom trial with 32 Grade VII students at a junior high school in Karawang. Results indicated a significant improvement in learning outcomes, with average test scores increasing from 60.78 (pre-test) to 76.73 (post-test), representing a gain of 15.95 points (26.2%). The practicality evaluation yielded an overall score of 80.93%, categorized as practical, supported by positive student responses and adequate teacher readiness. These findings demonstrate that Canva for Education–based interactive learning media developed using the ADDIE model are valid, practical, and effective in supporting students’ conceptual understanding of mathematics, offering a promising instructional solution for secondary education contexts.
