Abstract

The Wastra Sejahtera Community Group (Pokmas) at Mojotrisno Village, Jombang Regency, is a group of natural weaving artisans facing challenges in traditional marketing, leaving many products unsold. This community service project aims to improve Pokmas’ sales performance through digital marketing with Digital Storytelling (DST) content. DST was chosen to raise brand awareness and reach wider audiences, with strategies tailored to Pokmas’ conditions, product quality, and target market. This project used a qualitative approach that included interviews with consumers who love Indonesian cloth (wastra) to understand the essential values in making consumption decisions and observed competitor strategies. We used field data to determine the DST strategy for Pokmas Wastra Sejahtera, including creating examples of DST content and training for Pokmas. We developed strategies based on consumer needs that influenced the form and content, especially in the lifestyle category and the elements that formed DST. Additionally, we simplified the DST strategy so Pokmas could adapt to structured digital marketing activities. Through this community service project, Pokmas understood and felt the benefits of exposure to a broader market when they started selling on TikTok. Through the training they find the need for DST to tell the uniqueness of wastra products.

Abstract

This Community Service Program (PKM) was conducted around the campus of Universitas Satya Terra Bhinneka with the aim of enhancing community skills in producing and marketing dishwashing liquid as a home industry. The activity began with a pre-test to assess participants’ initial understanding of the production process, packaging, and marketing strategies. The pre-test results showed that most participants had no prior experience in soap making and limited knowledge of packaging and product marketing. The training included a live demonstration of the soap-making process, followed by sessions on product packaging and marketing strategies, particularly through the use of social media. Post-training evaluation showed significant improvements: 90.32 percent of participants understood the soap-making process, 100 percent grasped proper packaging techniques, and 74.19 percent understood how to utilize digital marketing strategies. Interest in starting a dishwashing liquid business increased from 29.03 percent to 77.42 percent after the training. This program effectively provided practical and applicable skills, promoted economic self-reliance, and strengthened the synergy between the university and the community in developing local potential. The training is expected to stimulate the emergence of new, sustainable, and competitive household-based business units in the local market.

Abstract

The Argorejo karaoke district has become a popular destination for night-time leisure activities in Semarang. A study was conducted in collaboration with the Argorejo Karaoke Association (PAKAR). It was determined that specific programmes, including those utilising psychological principles, is necessary. The challenges experienced by these individuals frequently pertain to a lack of support from their social networks, profound emotional distress, and an inability to effectively cope with adversity. The psychoeducation approach was employed in a study involving 49 females who were employed as lady companions. Initially, the participants were provided with psychosocial support material. Secondly, focus groups were convened and facilitated using "we-ness" cards. The quantitative findings demonstrated that the mean score for the perception of social support received by individuals increased. Participants are able to recognise emotions and comprehend when they require different types of support from others, which was a qualitative finding. Participants develop an understanding of their own needs and provide psychological support to others for ensuring optimal well-being in the long term. Further research is required to ascertain the efficacy of the "we-ness" card in a range of community service contexts, particularly those most in need, it is imperative that diverse groups collaborate.

Abstract

Improving teacher competency is more effective when supported by continuous professional development. This Community Service Program continues previous activities in 2024, which focused on training chemistry teachers to develop argumentation-based questions. Although teachers can now construct such questions, challenges remain in classroom implementation, especially in applying strategies and assessing their impact on students’ argumentation skills. To address this, the program introduces Classroom Action Research (CAR) based on argumentation skills. The goal is to equip chemistry teachers with practical knowledge and skills to design and implement learning that fosters argumentation through CAR. The program includes training, group discussions, tests and questionnaires, mentoring in CAR planning, implementation practice, and reflection. Results show improved teacher understanding of argumentation structures, CAR stages, and enhanced ability to design contextual and reflective learning to develop students’ argumentation skills. This program supports the sustainable development of argumentation-based learning to improve the quality of chemistry education in line with 21st-century demands. This program demonstrates an effective model for sustaining argumentation-based learning in chemistry education.

Abstract

Digitising learning is a strategic approach to preparing students for the digital era, including through the use of AI. As facilitators, innovators, and mentors in the learning process, teachers at SMA Negeri 3 Semarang require digital competencies and the ability to effectively integrate technology into their teaching to make it more interactive, flexible, and tailored to students’ needs. AI learning enhancement training was provided to 25 teachers over two days, focusing on using AI in the Quizizz application to improve AI-supported learning. The activities were carried out using the following methods: (1) Socialization; (2) Training; (3) Technology implementation; (4) Mentoring and evaluation; and (5) Program sustainability. Based on the training session, teachers demonstrated a high level of engagement, with 88 percent (22 participants) completing all tasks. Teachers actively created Quizizz accounts, developed quizzes, and used Quizizz AI features. A subsequent questionnaire indicated that 18 teachers who previously lacked understanding of Quizizz AI and 15 who felt unable to create and edit questions became proficient. Thus, the training had a positive impact on enhancing teachers’ digital competencies and readiness to implement AI-based learning.

Abstract

Mulyodadi is one of the villages that has been developing “agroedutourism”. Despite this potential, the village faces limited public recognition. Therefore, this community service program (PKM) was implemented to assist in the development of promotional media and to conduct a photography workshop. The program aimed to strengthen the promotional capacity, readiness, and independence of the human resources in managing tourism promotion. The creation of promotional media comprises three steps. First, collecting data on the tourism potential and selecting documentation from the village promotional team. Second, designing bilingual booklets and videos. Third, conducting a final review and revision of those media. A workshop was also conducted to optimize smartphone usage for photography purposes. The approach used in this program was a service-learning approach, which focused on building capacity, enhancing independence, and simultaneously fostering a sense of community ownership of the program. Observable changes were identified in the partner’s capability, including improved skills in photography and the availability of bilingual promotional media. These results indicate an improvement in the promotional readiness of the village and provide tangible support for continuous tourism promotion. Thus, the PKM empowers the human resources of the village by enhancing their ability to showcase their tourism potential.

Abstract

Used cooking oil, commonly produced from household cooking activities, poses serious risks to health and the environment if used repeatedly or disposed of carelessly. Repeated heating causes the formation of harmful compounds such as free fatty acids, aldehydes, and acrolein, while disposal into waterways can cause significant pollution. This community service program aims to enhance the knowledge and skills of housewives in Banjar Adat Taman Sari, Mengwitani Village, in processing used cooking oil into useful products, particularly solid soap. The activity conducted on July 24, 2025, employs a participatory learning-by-doing approach through interactive presentations and hands-on practice. Participants were introduced to the hazards of used cooking oil, purification techniques using activated carbon, and soap-making methods. Out of 37 participants, 4–6 was directly involved in the practical session, while the others followed via a live stream. The soap produced met the standards for cold-process soap in terms of color, scent, and texture. The program successfully raised environmental awareness, empowered women with practical skills, and opened up opportunities for household-scale businesses based on environmentally friendly practices.

Abstract

Cendol drink is a traditional Indonesian beverage made from rice flour and widely consumed in East Java. Many household-scale cendol entrepreneurs are located in Jetis, Mulyoagung Village, Dau District, Malang Regency, where production is still manual and limited to around 3 kg/day. Financial management, production processes, and marketing strategies also remain suboptimal. This community service program aimed to enhance partners’ knowledge and skills in financial management, production techniques, and marketing strategies to improve business performance. The program was implemented through knowledge transfer methods, including counseling sessions, demonstration plots, and mentoring conducted over three months. Program success was measured through improvements in production capacity, product quality, financial management practices, production efficiency, and marketing reach. The results showed that the integration of knowledge transfer and appropriate technology increased production capacity from 3 kg/day to 10 kg/day and raised household entrepreneurs’ profits by approximately 50 percent. The adoption of simple yet applicable technology provided tangible benefits for micro and small enterprises, particularly in improving operational efficiency and business sustainability. This activity also reflected effective collaboration between academia and the community in supporting local economic empowerment. Follow-up programs are recommended to include training in creative content development and social media management, supported by periodic mentoring to ensure sustainable implementation of production and marketing strategies.
