The Teras Belajar program is a community service initiative conducted by students under the Kuliah Kerja Nyata (KKN) program to support the enhancement of non-formal education quality for children in Tegalrejo Hamlet, Karangpakel Village, Trucuk District, Klaten Regency. This initiative stemmed from the limited availability of after-school learning support, which highlighted the need for interactive and engaging learning activities to foster children's motivation to learn. The aim of this program is to enhance children's learning motivation, active participation, and academic abilities through fun and educational learning support. The program was executed in four stages: needs assessment observation, program planning, implementation of learning support, and evaluation through participatory observation of participant attendance, enthusiasm, and involvement. In routine activities, learning materials were tailored to the participants' educational levels, encompassing literacy, numeracy, basic English, educational games, and creative activities such as ecoprinting. The results of the Teras Belajar program indicated that participants engaged enthusiastically, became more active during the learning process, and demonstrated increases in learning motivation and self-confidence. Beyond benefiting the children, the program received positive feedback from parents and the community as an engaging and accessible learning platform. Consequently, Teras Belajar serves as a viable non-formal education alternative that supports children's potential development while strengthening student contributions to community empowerment through KKN activities.
