Abstract

This activity was carried out as an effort to improve the ability of Bandeng Radit MSMEs to produce high-quality product photos and integrate them into digital catalog content, which is used as a promotional strategy on social media and digital catalog-based product information content. The main problems faced by partners are limited skills in lighting techniques, visual composition, and the use of digital platforms to market processed products such as presto milkfish, milkfish otak-otak, and grilled milkfish. Training participants were introduced to product photography techniques using smartphones through the Strobist Technique approach, namely the use of artificial light sources such as external flashes and portable softboxes to produce professional lighting in product photos. This activity was carried out using a participatory workshop method that included counseling on basic product photography theory, demonstrations of lighting techniques, shooting practice, editing techniques using applications, and integration of photo results into digital catalogs through the Figma application. Lightroom Mobile the training results showed significant improvements in technical skills, understanding of visual aesthetics, and basic understanding of digital promotion. Product photos produced by partners became more visually consistent, had balanced lighting, and were able to strengthen the brand image of Bandeng Radit MSMEs. This activity also contributes to empowering the local economy based on digitalization and serves as an applied training model for developing the capacity of MSMEs in the creative culinary sector.

Abstract

Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) play a pivotal role in Indonesia’s economy, particularly in the high-value fried shallot agro-industry. However, many MSMEs, such as Piknik Food, encounter persistent challenges in production and management due to manual practices, leading to limited capacity (15 packs/day), inconsistent product quality, and restricted market reach. This community engagement program employed a participatory-collaborative approach through stages: socialization, training, technology adoption, mentoring, and sustainability. Interventions emphasized smart technology-based modernization, including the application of production machinery (peeler, spinner, continuous sealer), financial digitalization, and the implementation of digital marketing strategies via social media and e-commerce platforms. The results indicated a 90% increase in production capacity (28–30 packs/day), a 32–35% reduction in oil content approaching SNI standards, improved hygienic packaging, and approximately 20% market expansion. These findings underscore that smart technology-based modernization enhances productivity, product quality, and competitiveness while supporting the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals.

Abstract

The perception of complexity and a lack of real-world relevance often hinder elementary school students' interest in robotics. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of creative project-based learning in building a strong foundation in robotics and enhancing student engagement at SD Margorejo 1 Surabaya. By integrating design thinking principles and project-based learning, this approach sought to create authentic and meaningful learning experiences. Employing a qualitative case study methodology with a participatory action research design, fifth-grade students were involved in a series of robotics projects designed to address real-world problems in their local environment. Data were collected through participant observation, semi-structured interviews, and project artifact analysis. The findings revealed that creative project-based learning significantly increased students' interest in robotics. Students not only grasped fundamental robotics concepts but also developed critical thinking, creativity, and collaboration skills. Moreover, this approach effectively strengthened students' understanding of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) concepts and fostered awareness of robotics' relevance in daily life. This study concludes that creative project-based learning is an effective strategy for building a strong robotics foundation and cultivating student interest at the elementary school level.

Abstract

This community service initiative was designed to enhance the production efficiency and marketing capacity of simping products developed by the Women Farmers Group (Kelompok Wanita Tani, KWT) Bunga Tanjung in Tanjungsari Village, Purwakarta. The program employed a participatory action research approach. The main intervention involved the introduction of a modern simping press machine featuring an ergonomic design and a dual-heating system, which allows for faster, more efficient production with consistent baking quality. Additionally, the team developed a comprehensive handbook that includes operational guidelines for the machine, formulations for new flavor variants, and digital marketing strategies. The results demonstrated that the implementation of this technology significantly improved both the productivity and quality of simping while reducing the physical workload of the participating members. The strong enthusiasm and positive responses from KWT members indicate that this appropriate technology effectively addressed their needs. Overall, the program contributes to strengthening the village-based creative economy through local culinary innovation and advancing women’s empowerment within micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs).

Abstract

Culinary SMEs have a significant contribution to national economic growth but still face challenges in marketing, particularly due to limited display space and insufficient provision of transparent product information. This community service program was carried out with UKM Rayu Manis through training on the use of 3D printing technology to produce dummy cakes and the integration of Near Field Communication (NFC) as an interactive medium for product information delivery. The method involved preparation, implementation, and evaluation stages, engaging owners and staff in practical training sessions. The results showed the creation of 10 PLA-based dummy cakes, with 7 units successfully equipped with NFC chips containing digital product information. The application of this innovation not only provides a more attractive and durable display alternative but also enhances information transparency and consumer interactive experience. Evaluation results indicated an average training score of 4.59, demonstrating high effectiveness in improving partner competence. Overall, this activity has proven relevant in strengthening digital marketing strategies, enhancing product display appeal, and supporting the competitiveness of culinary SMEs in the creative industry era.

Abstract

In Tangkoro Village, Pitumpanua District, Wajo Regency, 22.54% of the total population of 1,167 people work as farmers or plantation owners. Their main crop is cocoa, in addition to other commodities such as cloves, pepper, and fruit. Farmers cannot process their own cocoa harvest because it has been purchased by PT Cargill. Therefore, to earn additional income, they can only utilize cocoa waste. This community service aims to help farmers identify entrepreneurial ideas for utilizing cocoa waste into finished products and marketing them digitally. This empowerment is carried out through lectures (counseling) and simulations (training) to increase farmers' knowledge in finding business ideas using the Business Model Canvas in utilizing cocoa waste and marketing it digitally. The results of this empowerment study, based on pretest and posttest results, can improve farmers' ability to find business ideas for utilizing cocoa waste and utilizing digital marketing.
