Abstract

This community service program focuses on addressing the problem of low reading skills among lower grade students in Kahayan Tengah Subdistrict, Pulang Pisau Regency. Data from the Education Office (2023/2024) reveals that around 40% of third grade students in several elementary schools, such as in Bahu Palawa and Pamarunan, are not yet fluent in reading. This shows the urgency of improving teachers' capacity to deal with these learning difficulties. As a solution, a syllable learning model was introduced, designed to provide a systematic conceptual framework for letter recognition and word formation, thereby making it easier for students to achieve reading proficiency, which is also the foundation for writing. This reinforcement activity was carried out using a classic method that combined counseling, discussion, and hands-on practice. There were 38 participants, all teachers from the Hapakat Cluster 4 Teacher Working Group (KKG), which covers four elementary schools. Based on observations, 90% of the target participants successfully practiced the lessons well. Evaluation of the students showed an average score of 59.06 with a classical completeness of 25%, indicating the need for continuous intervention. The output of this program is an increase in teachers' knowledge and understanding in implementing early reading learning, which is expected to improve the quality of learning in the classroom. More broadly, the targeted final output is the publication of scientific articles in the PengabdianKu Journal of Muhammadiyah University Palangka Raya and the registration of Intellectual Property Rights .

Abstract

The availability of clean water is a basic need that must be met to ensure people's quality of life. The use of renewable energy, particularly through solar power plants (PLTS), offers an efficient and environmentally friendly solution. PLTS have the advantage of being an abundant energy source, being emission-free, and suitable for household applications in tropical regions like Indonesia, which experience high solar radiation intensity throughout the year (IEA, 2023; Mulyadi & Hartono, 2019). This research addresses the need for a solar-powered booster pump system integrated with a storage tank as a backup water source. The research was conducted in the Building Engineering Education Laboratory, Faculty of Teacher Training and Education, Palangka Raya University, designing a household water distribution system using a solar-powered booster pump integrated with a storage tank. Specific plans and targets include publication of this research in a SINTA-accredited journal, HKI, and a research video.

Abstract

The issue of energy availability and household waste is a significant issue that continues to grow with population growth and global energy consumption. Furthermore, household waste, such as used cooking oil and used cooking oil, is often disposed of carelessly into waterways or the surrounding environment. This causes soil and water pollution and can even damage micro-ecosystems in domestic environments. One relevant technological innovation is the development of a used cooking oil-fueled stove. This technology allows households to convert waste into heat energy for cooking. Therefore, an adequate air circulation system, such as a blower fan, is required to improve the mixing of air and oil during combustion. The research was conducted in the Mechanical Engineering Education Laboratory, Faculty of Teacher Training and Education, Palangka Raya University, by combining the use of used cooking oil as fuel and solar energy as a power source for the blower fan, reflecting the synergy between these two forms of renewable and sustainable energy. Specific plans and targets include publication of this research in a SINTA-accredited journal, HKI, and a research video.

Abstract

Geographically, Petuk Liti Village is located within Pulang Pisau Regency and within the Kahayan Tengah District. This village also serves as a transportation hub between regencies, including Gunung Mas Regency, South Barito Regency, North Barito Regency, and Kapuas Regency. In agriculture, plantations, and fisheries, the residents of Petuk Liti Village primarily cultivate rubber, oil palm, and rattan trees. Manual spraying is still often carried out using conventional tools such as knapsack sprayers, which are manually operated or powered by fossil fuel engines. Besides being tiring, using these tools is inefficient in terms of time and energy, and contributes to carbon emissions that worsen environmental conditions (Putri & Santoso, 2020). With the increasing need for energy-efficient and environmentally friendly technology, an innovative solution is needed, namely the implementation of solar panel-based electric sprayers. Through an educational and applied approach, this community service is expected to improve farmers' skills and awareness of the importance of transitioning to green energy in daily agricultural production activities. The targeted outputs of this community service are the manufacture of electric sprayers and the publication of articles in SINTA-accredited journals and HKI.

Abstract

This study presents the analysis and design of a small-scale off-grid solar photovoltaic (PV) system to supply the electrical energy requirements of Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) projectors used in nine classrooms at Faculty of Engineering Building 2, Universitas Tidar. LCD projectors operate for approximately 10–11 hours per day, resulting in a total daily energy demand of 29.7 kWh. The objective of this research is to (1) analyze the daily load profile of projector usage, (2) determine the appropriate capacity of PV modules, batteries, and inverter, and (3) evaluate the techno-economic feasibility of the proposed system. Data collection was carried out through field observation, device power measurement, rooftop area assessment, and retrieval of solar irradiation data. The system design combines manual engineering calculations with optimization using HOMER Pro software. Results indicate that a PV capacity between 9–10.5 kWp is sufficient to fulfill daily load demand. HOMER simulation recommends an optimal configuration consisting of a 9 kWp PV array, a 3.2 kW inverter, and 17 battery units, yielding a Net Present Cost (NPC) of USD 23,874.79 and a Levelized Cost of Energy (LCOE) of USD 0.296/kWh. The system achieves 100% renewable fraction with minimal shortage. Overall, the designed PV system is technically and economically feasible and can serve as a practical applied-learning resource for engineering students studying renewable energy systems.

Abstract

Building mass orientation is one of the fundamental parameters of passive design strategies that significantly influences energy efficiency, daylight performance, and thermal comfort in sustainable architecture. This study aims to analyze the influence of building mass orientation on the achievement of sustainable building performance in tropical humid climates. The research adopts a quantitative– descriptive approach using climate-based simulations, employing parameters such as Useful Daylight Illuminance (UDI), Annual Sunlight Exposure (ASE), and Cooling Load Analysis. The findings indicate that the existing building orientation facing northwest–southeast generates an excessive level of natural lighting, with UDI-Above reaching 86.3%, implying an overlighting condition. Meanwhile, the ASE average of 7.15 hours per year suggests that the interior spaces are almost entirely protected from direct sunlight exposure. This combination leads to uneven daylight distribution and high indoor temperatures, averaging 31–32°C with relative humidity between 70–75%. An alternative simulation, with a rotation of ±15° toward the north–south axis and the addition of horizontal shading devices, shows a reduction in cooling energy consumption by 18–22% and an improvement in thermal comfort of approximately 1.5°C lower than the existing condition. The results confirm that building mass orientation has a substantial impact on both energy performance and occupant comfort. Passive design strategies such as horizontal and vertical shading devices, light shelves, and vegetative buffers can effectively optimize daylight use while reducing thermal loads. This study contributes empirical evidence supporting the application of passive tropical design principles and sustainable architecture in educational and institutional buildings.

Abstract

In simple water distribution systems, one of the main challenges often encountered is the slow flow of water from the storage tank to the point of use, especially in gravity systems that lack additional pumps. Water flow rate is significantly influenced by water level (head pressure), pipe diameter, and internal pressure within the system. Low water flow can disrupt the efficiency of water utilization for household, agricultural, and other technical purposes. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of air pressure in increasing water flow from a storage tank through a closed pipe system. This research also contributes to the development of simple, efficient water distribution technology that can be implemented in remote areas or areas with limited infrastructure. This research is a quantitative experimental study aimed at determining the effect of air pressure on water flow in the pipe system from the storage tank. The research was conducted at the Building Engineering Education Laboratory, Faculty of Teacher Training and Education, Palangka Raya University. Specific plans and targets include publication of this research in a SINTA-accredited journal, HKI, and a research video

Abstract

The waste problem caused by low public awareness and limited waste management systems remains a crucial issue that leads to environmental degradation. This community service program was initiated as a solution to address the accumulation of unmanaged waste through the implementation of the 3R (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle) concept. Its objectives are to build community self-reliance in waste management, improve environmental quality, and empower local economic potential. Through outreach activities and intensive training, the program was implemented in Kuta Bangun Village. The results indicate the successful implementation of the program, marked by increased understanding and awareness among residents in applying proper waste management practices. In addition to raising awareness, this initiative also succeeded in establishing an independent waste-bank management group as a concrete step toward sustainability. The waste bank not only functions as a center for collecting and sorting waste but also serves as a driving force for the circular economy by converting recyclable inorganic waste into an additional source of income for residents. This success indicates that education- based interventions and community empowerment are effective in transforming behavior and creating a socially and economically sustainable waste management system at the village level.

Abstract

The various problems that have arisen in the Kedaton Ternate building are very complex, including mechanical, physical, and chemical damage. This damage can be caused by various factors, one of which is the age of the building, which is hundreds of years old. In addition, the lack of regular maintenance due to financial constraints has also worsened the condition of the building. The last maintenance was carried out by the government of the Republic of Indonesia in 1981, and since then, no conservation work has been done on the building for the past 41 years. With the building getting older (built in 1811, last renovated in 1981), the condition of the building has deteriorated significantly, including a decline in the quality and structure of the building, which could threaten the preservation and safety of the palace's occupants. Therefore, it is important to immediately rehabilitate the Kedaton Kesultanan Ternate area in order to save the occupants, who are the Sultan/King's family, and to preserve the cultural heritage of Kedaton Kesultanan Ternate. The work began with coordination between the Sultanate and the Central Jakarta and North Maluku Regional Settlement Infrastructure Agency (BPPW) to determine the planning team and conduct a survey of the condition of the Ternate Palace to identify the necessary repairs. The handling of damage inside the building began with reviewing each existing damage, analyzing its causes, and determining the appropriate repair methods with several options that minimize risks and are in accordance with conservation principles. Every step taken must adhere to strict conservation principles and be carried out with caution to avoid further damage. Therefore, this project requires intensive coordination with relevant competent parties to avoid mistakes in handling and ensure the preservation of the historical and cultural value of the Kedaton. Regular maintenance of the building is very important, as it can help detect damage early on before it develops into more severe damage. Severe damage can have various impacts, such as endangering the safety of occupants, damaging or destroying historical and cultural value, and increasing rehabilitation costs significantly. In addition, repairs carried out at a later stage require very careful and meticulous handling. Technically, the difficulty faced is how the implementing contractor can carry out the rehabilitation in accordance with the established procedures and regulations. This is done by compiling planning drawings that are communicative, clear, and well-structured to facilitate the implementation of repairs. Meanwhile, the non-technical difficulties faced are the challenges in finding replacement materials that are close to the original building materials. These replacement materials require prior testing to determine their content and quality so that they match the original materials used in the building.

Abstract

Preserving traditional games is crucial to maintain cultural values and national identity, which are being threatened by technological developments and modern games. Traditional games are not just an entertainment, but also a platform for learning social and cultural values such as cooperation, honesty, and tolerance, which are essential for children's motor, cognitive, and character development. Therefore, introducing and preserving traditional games for early childhood is a strategic way to maintain cultural heritage and support their holistic development. This community service was addressed to Kartika XVII-18 Kindergarten in Palangka Raya where traditional games have not been explicitly integrated into learning activities. The local cultural content that students learn is still limited to artistic aspects such as traditional Dayak dances for ceremonial purposes and competitions. Meanwhile, implementing traditional games in the school environment is also hampered by the lack of supporting facilities for applying traditional games in learning activities. This community service was held with a participatory approach and hands-on learning through stages of socialization of traditional games, demonstrations, practice of traditional games by children, and joint evaluation/reflection which involves children and teachers actively. This activity is expected to overcome the partner's problems as well as supporting
