Abstract

The use of cosmetics among adolescents has increased significantly alongside the rapid growth of the beauty industry. However, several critical issues, such as illegal cosmetics or the misuse of cosmetic products, raise great concern. Adolescents, a growing population with limited literacy regarding product safety, may pose higher health risks. This community service program aimed to improve high school students’ knowledge of safe cosmetic use through an experiential learning approach. The activity was conducted with 39 students (64% female, 36% male) from SMA Strada Santo Thomas Aquino in Tangerang. The research design is quasi-experimental using methods included a combination of lectures and a workshop on natural-based lip balm formulation. Participants' knowledge was assessed using a pre-test and post-test to evaluate changes before and after the educational intervention. The results showed an increase in the mean score from 78 on the pre-test to 97 on the post-test. Statistical analysis using a paired t-test demonstrated that this improvement was statistically significant (p < 0.05). The proportion of participants in the very good category increased substantially from 7.69% to 76.92%. In addition, the satisfaction survey indicated high participant satisfaction, with more than 70% rating the overall implementation of the program as very good, including the quality of educational delivery, topic relevance, practical applicability, and time allocation. In conclusion, the creative, natural-product-based educational program effectively improved cosmetic literacy among adolescents and achieved a high level of participant satisfaction. This approach may serve as an effective strategy for adolescences education.

Abstract

Community health problems related to inadequate nutritional intake and low consumption of functional foods remain significant challenges in rural areas of Aceh Province, Indonesia. Limited access to healthy probiotic products and the lack of practical entrepreneurial skills among teachers also contribute to low family health awareness and limited economic productivity. This community service program aimed to improve teachers’ knowledge and practical skills in producing household-scale yogurt as a healthy probiotic food while simultaneously promoting creative economic opportunities. The program was conducted at SD Negeri 2 Jeumpet, Aceh Besar, involving 12 active teachers as participants. The implementation method consisted of five stages: socialization and preparation, theoretical and practical training, technology application and production trials, business management mentoring, and sustainability monitoring. The program applied a participatory and hands-on approach using appropriate technology and simple household equipment. The results showed significant improvements in participants’ understanding of nutrition, probiotics, food sanitation, and yogurt production techniques. Participants successfully produced plain and fruit-flavored yogurt products using local ingredients and simple fermentation technology. In addition, the teachers demonstrated increased entrepreneurial motivation through product branding, simple financial management, and digital marketing practices. The program also produced several outputs, including a yogurt production module, educational presentation materials, posters, audio-visual documentation, and a scientific publication manuscript. Overall, the program contributed positively to improving family health awareness, practical life skills, and community-based creative economic development in the school environment.

Abstract

High school students' knowledge of cosmetics is generally limited to finished products, without understanding their composition, formulation processes, or safety aspects, which may increase the risk of improper product use. This community service activity aimed to enhance scientific literacy, cosmetic safety awareness, and formulation skills among high school students through an experiential learning-based solid perfume balm workshop, an approach not yet widely implemented in the Indonesian high school context. A pre-post design without a control group was employed with 21 Grade XI Science students (52.38% male; mean age 16.4 years) at SMA Katolik Ricci 1, Jakarta. The evaluation instrument consisted of 10 validated multiple-choice questions. Because the Shapiro-Wilk test confirmed non-normality of difference scores (W = 0.7774; p = 0.0003), the Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test was used for hypothesis testing. Participant satisfaction was assessed with a seven-item Likert-scale questionnaire. The mean score increased from 77.62 (pretest) to 90.48 (posttest). The proportion of participants with high knowledge rose significantly from 61.90% to 95.24% (Z = −3.823; p < 0.001; effect size r = 0.83). All participants successfully produced their own perfume balm product. The mean satisfaction score was 4.74 out of 5.00. An experiential learning workshop integrating cosmetic safety, formulation skills, and science literacy proved effective for high school students. Recommended follow-up actions include control-group designs, larger samples, and long-term knowledge retention assessments.

Abstract

Contaminated hands are a major route for the transmission of microorganisms and contribute to the spread of infectious diseases, particularly in school environments where close interpersonal contact facilitates transmission. Although awareness of hand hygiene is generally adequate, adolescents' consistent handwashing practices remain suboptimal. Because adolescence is a critical period for establishing lifelong health behaviors, school-based interventions provide an important opportunity to improve hand hygiene knowledge, awareness, and behavioral intention, thereby promoting sustained healthy practices and reducing the risk of communicable diseases. This program aimed to improve students’ knowledge of hand hygiene and to provide practical skills through a soap-making workshop at SMA Ricci 1 in Jakarta. The methods included health education via interactive lectures, pre- and post-tests, and a hands-on workshop, with 141 and 71 students attending the educational session and the workshop, respectively. The results showed an increase in the mean knowledge score from 75.25 to 85.60, with 55.32% to 88.65% of students in the “good” knowledge category. Additionally, over 90% of the participants gave high ratings for the workshop’s clarity, usefulness, and relevance. The program effectively improved students’ knowledge and awareness of hand hygiene while providing practical experience to support healthy hygiene behavior.

Abstract

Limited structured exposure to pharmaceutical literacy among high school students may reduce their understanding of dosage forms, prescription interpretation, and safe medication use in daily life. This community engagement activity aimed to improve eleventh-grade students’ knowledge and practical skills in preparing divided powders and capsules through an interactive prescription-based workshop. The activity was conducted offline at the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, Atma Jaya Catholic University of Indonesia, involving 29 eleventh-grade students from a private high school in Tangerang, Indonesia. The program consisted of material delivery, prescription simulation, hands-on practice, discussion, and evaluation using pre-test and post-test instruments. Practical skills were evaluated through facilitator observation of key performance indicators, including powder mixing, visual dose division, capsule filling, capsule closing, labeling, and work neatness. The results showed that students’ knowledge scores increased from 75.17 ± 12.43 to 93.79 ± 9.79, representing a 24.77% improvement. The Wilcoxon signed-rank test confirmed a significant difference between pre- and post-intervention scores (Z = -4.327; p < 0.001). Most practical skill indicators were also achieved well, with observation results ranging from 80% to 100% across the assessed indicators. This activity strengthened students’ pharmaceutical literacy and can serve as a practical school-based model for early pharmacy education.

Abstract

This community engagement program aimed to strengthen Madrasah Ibtidaiyah teachers' understanding and competence in designing and implementing learning that integrates science, numeracy, and environmental literacy. Conducted at MIN 1 and MIN 2 Samarinda from July to October 2025, the program involved 45 teachers of Grades I-VI. A Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach was implemented through five stages: to know, to understand, to plan, to act, and to change. Data were collected through classroom observations, interviews, and focus group discussions; analysis of learning documents; and pre- and post-reflection questionnaires using a 1-5 scale. The results showed consistent improvement in teachers' pedagogical competence. Overall program records indicated gains of approximately 23-35%; scores for integrating the three literacies increased from 2.8 to 4.2, literacy-based formative assessment from 2.6 to 4.1, and active-learning strategies from 2.9 to 4.3. Mentoring also promoted project- and inquiry-based learning, more constructive feedback, and professional reflection. These findings indicate that locally responsive participatory mentoring can serve as a teacher professional development model for strengthening integrated literacy practices in madrasahs. Sustainability requires institutionalized teacher working groups, peer mentoring, and continued support from school leaders and the local Ministry of Religious Affairs.

Abstract

Used cooking oil poses significant environmental and public health risks when improperly disposed of or excessively reused, particularly given national consumption rates of 9.5 kg per capita annually. This community empowerment initiative aimed to improve residents' waste management knowledge and technical skills in Krajan Village, Pasuruan Regency, by converting waste cooking oil into value-added aromatherapy candles. Using a Community-Based Approach (CBA), the program engaged 60 initial survey respondents and provided intensive training to 20 housewives, integrating lemongrass-based oil purification with hands-on candle-making. The evaluation demonstrated high engagement and substantial capacity building: mean knowledge scores increased significantly from 49.4 (pre-test) to 82.5 (post-test). At the same time, practical skills averaged 3.43 out of 4.00, placing participants in the independent category. Furthermore, attendance reached 100%, with 80% of participants successfully demonstrating independent product replication. All participants produced functional aromatherapy candles, confirming the technical feasibility of household-level recycling. In conclusion, transforming waste cooking oil into aromatherapy candles is an effective empowerment strategy that fosters environmental sustainability while developing local creative economic potential. To ensure long-term sustainability, subsequent mentoring should focus on product packaging, production cost analysis, and digital marketing strategies to facilitate the transition toward viable micro-enterprises.

Abstract

Scientific writing competence is essential for knowledge production and academic development. However, many teachers in Islamic educational institutions face challenges in developing scientific writing skills, limiting their participation in scholarly discourse. This article describes a community engagement program aimed at enhancing teachers’ capacity for popular scientific writing at Madrasah Diniyah B-05 Sidogiri Pesantren Miftahul Ulum Bengkak, Wongsorejo, Banyuwangi. The program employed a Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach, involving teachers in identifying needs, designing activities, implementing training, and evaluating outcomes. Thirteen teachers participated, with ten successfully producing articles. Six articles met general eligibility criteria, and two were published in online media outlets. These results indicate that the program strengthened teachers’ competencies in producing popular scientific writing and increased their engagement in knowledge dissemination. The integration of religious moderation perspectives also encouraged participants to develop more inclusive and moderate religious narratives. The program demonstrates that participatory writing training can improve teachers’ writing capacity while promoting religious moderation in Islamic educational settings. This initiative contributes to educational and community-based efforts to strengthen religious moderation and support teachers’ participation in academic and public discourse.

Abstract

This community service initiative is motivated by field conditions in which several private Islamic secondary schools (madrasah) in Samarinda City still have vision and mission statements whose achievement has never been systematically measured. Using the Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD) approach, this initiative provided mentoring to 15 private Madrasah Tsanawiyah with accreditation below grade A, involving school principals, curriculum vice-principals, and teacher representatives (3 persons per madrasah). The mentoring covered the identification of existing vision-mission statements, the SWOT-based classification of institutional potential, and the collaborative reformulation of vision-mission statements aligned with concrete work programs. Evaluation using pre-test and post-test instruments showed Participants’ mean comprehension score increased from 72.5% on the pre-test to 88.6% on the post-test. In addition, 13 of the 15 madrasahs (86.7%) completed measurable vision and mission statements. These findings indicate that structured, SWOT-based mentoring is effective in improving madrasah stakeholders' capacity to formulate a vision and mission that is realistic, measurable, and adaptive to institutional change
