Abstract

Farmer groups are an important initiative in developing farmers and supporting the government in accelerating the development of the agricultural sector. The Pejengkolan Village Farmers Group not only functions as a place to exchange knowledge in the agricultural sector but also as a center for productive activities for its members. One of the activities carried out is the fruit plant nursery business, which is one of the business units within it. The problem faced by farmer groups is a lack of knowledge in the field of digital marketing and marketing management. This activity aims to improve the human resources capabilities of farmer groups in the field of digital marketing and understanding of effective marketing strategies. This community service activity uses the PAR (participatory action research) method through seminars in the field of management and marketing strategy, and training in cultivating fruit seedlings. The results of the evaluation of this community service concluded that the target group's knowledge increased by 80% in the field of digital marketing, increased by 90% in the use of technology, and the ability to manage online shops in the marketplace increased by 90%.

Abstract

Classroom Action Research (CAR) study serves as a crucial indicator for enhancing teacher professionalism. Despite its importance, the competency of teachers in conducting CAR remains relatively low. Various factors contribute to this, including a lack of structured guidance and the burden of administrative tasks.

The method employed a four-stage training process: planning, preparation, implementation, and evaluation. Following mentoring, the training yielded positive results, with participants successfully developing CAR titles based on their classroom experiences and expressing satisfaction with the acquired knowledge of CAR writing concepts. Furthermore, a portion of the participants expressed a desire for continued training to further enhance their professional capabilities as teachers.

Teaching props can help make the learning process more effective by bringing students closer to a concept through a more tangible representation. However, many schools struggle to meet the need for teaching aids, as seen at SMA Sholihin in Bandongan District, Magelang Regency. With advancements in manufacturing technology, an affordable solution is now available to address this issue: 3D printing. The purpose of this community service program is to provide education on the utilization of 3D printing for developing teaching props. The method used involves training on the basic concepts of 3D printing, how to obtain 3D models, and how to operate a 3D printer. The material was delivered through presentations, discussions, and direct demonstrations of the process of creating three-dimensional objects using a 3D printer. At the end of the program, six educational teaching props were successfully produced using 3D printing, along with an improved understanding of the fundamentals of 3D printing technology, 3D modeling, and 3D printer operation.

Abstract

Since 2010, Muhammadiyah has recognized that waste materials such as plastic, paper, cans, and aluminum still contain energy. One of Muhammadiyah schools that utilizes plastic waste is SMP Muhammadiyah 10 Yogyakarta (Muhdasa) through its "sedekah sampah" (charity waste) task force. However, the task force members are active students who change every year, requiring continuous education. Additionally, there was no centralized collection point for plastic bottles. This community service aimed to enhance students' knowledge about waste types and management, as well as cultivate their environmental consciousness. The method employed involved initial observation followed by socialization in collaboration with the environmental communities Hero Trash Yogyakarta and Akshi UMY. The results show that students gained a better understanding of waste classification and management, as evidenced by their participation in plogging activities (picking up litter while jogging). The activity concluded with the donation of a metal bin for collecting plastic bottles.
