<![CDATA[Background: Optimizing mobile technology, such as mobile phones, for academic productivity offers a strategic opportunity to enhance data visualization skills within modern statistics education at the university level.Aims: This UNPAM community service activity aims to strengthen the advanced computing skills of partners-specificallystudents in the Applied Statistics Diploma III Program at Universitas Bima Internasional (UNBIM) as well as participants nationwide, through the hands-on implementation of the LaTeX/TikZ ecosystem using mobile devices such as smartphones.Methods: A one-group pre-test and post-test design was successfully conducted over approximately one month, utilizing Google Meet and WhatsApp; the program encompassed interactive lectures, hands-on mobile programming using the VerbTeX app, and programming-based simulation assignments guided by the founder of Psi Square.Results: This community service activity effectively empowered learners to practice TikZ/LaTeX syntax for modeling particle dynamics, ranging from deterministic kinematics to stochastic random walks. Quantitative evaluations showed that the participants’ mean technical proficiency score increased from 24.2% in the pre-test to 89.4% in the post-test.Conclusion: The integration of LaTeX/TikZ into mobile platforms as a learning model has proven effective and progressive, successfully expanding access to scientific computing and enriching mathematical and statistical data visualization tools in academic training.]]>
