Abstract

The purpose of this Community Service (PKM) is to improve financial literacy, awareness, and the ability of high school students (SMA) to manage their personal finances from an early age. Good personal finance management is an essential skill that will help students achieve their financial goals and prevent financial problems in the future. The training provided included how to budget their daily personal money. The methods used are a combination of lectures, discussions, case studies, and practical training. The results of this service show a significant improvement in all aspects of participants' financial literacy after the training. High school students have a fairly good level of awareness about the importance of personal financial management, but still lack practical skills in creating income and expense budgets and savings awareness. Therefore, it is recommended that the school include material on financial literacy into the literacy habits the school has already been practicing. Additionally, students also need to be proactive in seeking information and learning from various sources about personal financial management. With adequate knowledge and skills, students are better prepared to face future financial problems and achieve financial freedom.

Abstract

The development of digital technology requires teachers to adapt and integrate technology into the learning process. Coordination between the community service team and partners revealed that teachers still face difficulties in optimizing Google Form features, particularly in creating interactive questions. This community service activity aims to enhance teachers’ competence in utilizing Google Form as a digital assessment tool to support learning efficiency and effectiveness. The implementation methods include coordination and collaboration with partners, interactive training sessions, and direct mentoring for participants. The success of the activity was evaluated using a satisfaction questionnaire with a Likert scale to assess the implementation, material relevance, instructor competence, and the overall impact of the training. The results of the community service activity show that teachers successfully created interactive questions by optimizing Google Form features. Partner satisfaction with the training was very high, exceeding 93% across four aspects: activity implementation, material relevance, instructor competence, and training impact. During the training, teachers gained digital assessment skills and knowledge about educational transformation. As a follow-up, a communication group was established to ensure the sustainability of digital competency development.

Abstract

Social security protection for informal workers remains a major challenge in achieving labor welfare in Indonesia. This study aims to analyze efforts to optimize social security protection for informal workers in the Indramayu region through the BPJS Ketenagakerjaan program. The research method used is descriptive qualitative with a field study approach, involving interviews and observations with informal workers, and BPJS Ketenagakerjaan Indramayu Branch officers. The results show that the participation rate of informal workers is still relatively low due to limited understanding of social security benefits, economic constraints, and the lack of continuous socialization. Optimization efforts are carried out through service innovation in improving public education, collaboration with local governments and worker communities, and strengthening the role of PERISAI agents as the frontline in participant acquisition and financial digitization for ease of transactions. In conclusion, increasing awareness and participation of informal workers in social security requires intensive communication strategies and sustainable policy support to achieve comprehensive social protection in the Indramayu region.

Character education based on local noble values is key in forming a superior generation. Panca Waluya is a character education concept based on Sundanese local wisdom that includes five main values: Cageur (healthy), Bageur (good), Bener (correct), Pinter (intelligent), and Singer (skilled). This concept can be applied in families as a foundation for children's character formation. The background of this community service focuses on the importance of implementing Panca Waluya education in families to create a quality generation, capable of facing global challenges in the future, especially in realizing the Golden Generation of 2045. The methods used in this community service include counseling, training, and group discussions with parents on how to instill Panca Waluya values in everyday life. The results of this community service show that the parents involved are beginning to understand and apply the principles of Panca Waluya in their parenting patterns and improved quality relationships within the family and character. Strengthening Panca Waluya education in the family environment is believed to be a strategic step towards realizing Indonesia's Golden Generation in 2045.

Abstract

The implementation of the Halal Product Guarantee Law No. 33 of 2014 in Indonesia requires a comprehensive public understanding, not only on food but also medicines and cosmetics. This activity aims to measure and improve the level of knowledge and critical thinking skills of MUHI High School students regarding the concepts of halal and thayyib. The activity uses a pretest-posttest design involving grade XI. The evaluation instrument consists of six questions representing Bloom's six cognitive levels (knowledge to evaluation). The instrument is proven valid (R Count > 0.444) and has acceptable reliability (Cronbach's Alpha = 0.685). Educational interventions focus on Halal Critical Points. The average overall score has increased significantly, from 72.1% (pretest) to 94.2% (posttest). The highest percentage increases were seen at the Knowledge (C1) and Understanding (C2) levels, which previously had the lowest initial scores (48.6% and 59.5%), respectively, showing increases of 40.6% and 32.4%. The Application (C3) level achieved a perfect 100% score on the posttest. This model was effective in transforming initial theoretical gaps into practical and critical mastery of the material. Significant improvements across all cognitive levels confirm the success of the structured intervention in preparing students to become intelligent and critical halal consumers.
