Abstract

Mathematical literacy skills are crucial for solving everyday mathematical problems. However, at SD Muhammadiyah Pangkal Pinang, students' numeracy literacy skills are still relatively low. This condition is exacerbated by the absence of a dedicated numeracy literacy learning center and the limited skills of teachers in designing and developing such resources. This community service (PkM) activity aimed to introduce a numeracy literacy corner to teachers as an initial step towards establishing a more comprehensive learning center. The implementation method for this PkM included three stages of socialization: pre-activity, concept introduction, and evaluation. The results showed that teachers gave positive feedback on the numeracy literacy corner, considering it more engaging than conventional reading corners. It is hoped that this initiative can serve as a foundation for the optimal realization of a numeracy literacy learning center in the classroom in the future.

Abstract

Coffee capsules, which are measured servings of premium, ready-to-brew ground coffee sealed to preserve flavor, possess significant development potential due to the limited number of competitors and promising export and domestic market opportunities. CV. Sundanika Indonesia is one such coffee capsule producer in Indonesia. In its export market initiation, CV. Sundanika Indonesia faced challenges in selecting the appropriate packaging material for its coffee capsules. This Community Service program aimed to facilitate the transition of coffee capsule packaging materials at CV. Sundanika Indonesia. The program commenced with discussions to comprehensively identify the partner's problems and provide recommended solutions. The methods employed included Focus Group Discussions, the provision of sample coffee capsule packaging, and program evaluation. The program results indicate that the partner gained an understanding of packaging functions in general and the significant differences between plastic and aluminum foil packaging for coffee capsules, which motivated them to switch to aluminum foil packaging. A 30% increase in the partner's understanding supports the success of this packaging transition.

Abstract

Medical emergencies can occur in dentistry, including trauma to primary teeth. The global prevalence of dental trauma in children is 10-15%. Trauma to primary teeth can have severe medical, aesthetic, and psychological impacts. Parents and teachers at school are among the most important actors in providing emergency dental care for children. Therefore, providing information that increases parents’ and teachers’ knowledge about pediatric dental emergencies must be done so that appropriate management can be carried out. The method used was training on managing pediatric dental emergencies for parents and teachers at Whiz Kids Playschool Kindergarten. The evaluation showed increased participants’ knowledge before (Range = 10–80, Mean = 47.2) and after (Range = 70–100, Mean = 87.0) the training. Thus, this training successfully increased parents’ and teachers’ knowledge of managing pediatric dental emergencies.

Abstract

Buddagan 1 Hamlet, Pamekasan Regency, faces the problem of cow dung waste piling up around the house, causing an unpleasant odor and unhygienic kitchen conditions. The proximity of the cow shed to the kitchen, coupled with the status of a heritage village that requires a solution without changing the building structure, demands an innovative approach. Therefore, this community service aims to apply biogas technology to utilize cow dung waste as an alternative energy source, improve environmental cleanliness, and reduce household expenses. Community service activities include socialization of biogas technology, training on use and maintenance, as well as installation and evaluation assistance. As a result, biogas technology was successfully implemented, meeting cooking gas needs, reducing household costs, and producing organic fertilizer. Socialization, training, and ongoing assistance ensure the operational success of biogas technology. Buddagan 1 Hamlet is now an inspiring example of environmentally friendly livestock waste management.

Abstract

This community service activity aimed to transform Islamic learning materials from books into an educational board game format at Taman Pendidikan Al-Qur'an (TPQ) Baitul Khoir Jetakan, Jogonegoro, Mertoyudan. This initiative was designed to create an effective learning process and to foster a character of perseverance among the students. Board games were chosen as an alternative, interactive, and enjoyable learning medium, expected to increase children's motivation and enthusiasm for learning Islamic teachings. The program's implementation showed positive results: 7 children aged from early childhood education (PAUD) to 2nd grade elementary school, who previously only mastered the Pillars of Islam and some names of angels, now successfully memorized all the Pillars of Faith, Pillars of Islam, names of angels, and 3-5 daily prayers. Meanwhile, 15 children aged 3rd-6th grade elementary school successfully memorized the names of prophets along with their miracles, popular Islamic history, 6-10 daily prayers, and were able to correctly practice ablution (wudhu) and prayer (shalat). This game also significantly encouraged social interaction and cooperation among students, supporting the formation of an Islamic character of "perseverance." It is concluded that the transformation of knowledge through board games at TPQ Baitul Khoir was effective in enhancing basic Islamic knowledge and cultivating a character of perseverance in the students.

Abstract

The Minister of Health Regulation (PMK) Number 24 of 2022 mandates healthcare facilities, including hospitals, to implement Electronic Medical Records (EMR). However, the optimal development of EMR remains a challenge. This community service aims to provide counseling on EMR development strategies based on SWOT analysis and digital maturity. This activity is a dissemination of research findings conducted in 2022 regarding EMR development. The method used was community education through counseling provided to the heads of departments and medical record staff of Bethesda Hospital regarding EMR development strategies. The evaluation results showed that Bethesda Hospital’s digital maturity level is at level 4 (EMRAM). Therefore, a more aggressive EMR development strategy is recommended, leveraging existing strengths and opportunities, to enhance the digital maturity level of EMR to support clinical decision-making and patient safety.

Abstract

The high prevalence of early marriage in Indonesia, exacerbated by suboptimal implementation of regulations, poses significant negative psychological, health, social, and economic impacts on children. This community service activity aimed to increase the knowledge of the community in Tanjung Medang Village, Muara Enim Regency, regarding the impacts and importance of preventing early marriage. Implemented through an initial assessment, comprehensive education on the sociological perspective of early marriage impacts, and a post-intervention evaluation, the program demonstrated a significant increase in knowledge. Pre-test scores, initially at 70%, rose to 97% in the post-test, indicating the effectiveness of the socialization. This enhanced understanding is expected to form a foundation for collective efforts by the community and local government to reduce the rate of early marriage for the future well-being of children.
