Abstract

Mathematics is often perceived as a difficult and uninteresting subject, a sentiment shared by students at SMAN 1 Balen. One effective solution to this challenge is the integration of technology-based learning media. The objective of this community engagement program was to train and introduce the Winplot application to students at SMAN 1 Balen to aid in solving quadratic equation problems. This program was conducted in three phases: 1) Preparation, which involved an initial observation of the school to assess needs; 2) Implementation, where training on the use of the Winplot application was delivered through lectures, group discussions, and practical exercises; and 3) Evaluation, to measure the program's effectiveness. The results indicate that 70% of the students were able to competently operate the Winplot application and effectively use it to solve quadratic equation problems. This initiative demonstrates the potential of technology to make mathematics more accessible and engaging for high school students.

Abstract

The adoption of Clean and Healthy Living Behaviors (CHLBs) at MI Muhammadiyah Paremono remains a challenge, primarily due to students' low awareness of hygiene, minimal health practices within the school environment, and limited access to interactive learning media. This community engagement program aimed to enhance students' understanding and adoption of CHLBs through a Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) approach. The activities included developing a STEM-based health module, providing teacher training, socializing CHLBs among students, and promoting hygiene practices within the school environment. Learning was delivered interactively through experiments and project-based methods, such as a handwashing simulation using pepper powder to represent germs and the use of the HealthHeroes application to assess the nutritional value of food. The program's effectiveness was evaluated through observation, pre-tests and post-tests, and satisfaction surveys for teachers and students. The results showed a significant average increase of 35.2% in students' understanding of CHLBs, along with an improvement in their hygiene-related behaviors. Teachers also reported feeling more confident in delivering STEM-based health education. As a follow-up, the school will receive a self-evaluation guide and continuous support to ensure CHLB practices are embedded in the school culture. This program is expected to create a sustainable positive impact on health and hygiene within the school environment.

Abstract

The decline in sales of Bawor durian seedlings, caused by the widespread proliferation of similar cultivars across Indonesia, has become a significant challenge for the Ngudi Makmur and Gangga Mulya Farmer Groups. This training program was designed as an innovative solution to provide farmers with an alternative income source through intercropping with bush pepper (Piper nigrum) cultivation. The main challenge identified was the farmers' lack of technical knowledge and skills in propagating this type of pepper. Therefore, this program aimed to enhance their capacity in bush pepper propagation techniques using stem cuttings. The capacity-building was conducted through various methods, including continuous mentoring, lectures, focused group discussions, and hands-on training. The lecture and discussion sessions covered the basic theory of propagation, such as identifying ideal cutting materials, growth media, and environmental factors influencing success. The practical sessions focused on the techniques of cutting stems and transplanting seedlings into the growth media. The results of this program showed a significant increase in the participants' knowledge and skills. A propagation demoplot was also successfully established. This initiative not only aims to boost farmers' income but also supports more sustainable agricultural practices.

Abstract

Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) play a crucial role in driving local economies, yet many operators still lack adequate understanding of effective financial management. Low financial literacy often results in difficulties in determining the Cost of Goods Sold (COGS), maintaining simple financial records, and formulating long-term business strategies. This community service program aimed to strengthen the capacity of MSME actors, specifically residents of the Batujajar Transit Apartment, through participatory training. The methodology involved interactive lectures, group discussions, and hands-on practice, integrated with the student Community Service Program (KKN) of Universitas Padjadjaran. The program successfully demonstrated an increase in participant understanding, reflected in their ability to calculate basic COGS, create financial recording formats, and produce relevant Business Model Canvas (BMC) drafts. Evidence of success is visible in the BMC examples developed by the participants. It is expected that this activity will enhance the product competitiveness of the MSMEs through more professional business governance and financial management.

Abstract

Rice husk waste is an abundant agricultural byproduct in Karang Langit Village, Lamongan, but its utilization is still limited, posing a potential environmental problem. This community service program aims to modernize agricultural practices by utilizing rice husk as a hydroponic growing medium to support food security and promote a circular economy. The methods applied include community coordination, carbonization of rice husks, preparation of the hydroponic system, and both theoretical and practical hands-on training. Evaluation results show a significant increase in participants’ knowledge by 32%. A total of 85% of participants successfully prepared a viable rice-husk-based growing medium, and 75% were able to cultivate and harvest leafy vegetables in the trial phase. Additionally, a farmer group was formed and is committed to independently continuing hydroponic practices after the program’s conclusion. These results confirm that utilizing rice husk as a hydroponic medium not only enhances community skills and self-sufficiency but also opens new economic opportunities. This model is recommended for replication in other agricultural areas to support local food security and environmental sustainability.

Abstract

The high unemployment rate in Nagari Sialang Gaung, reaching 30–40% of the productive-age population, poses a serious problem hindering community welfare. This situation is paradoxical given the significant opportunities in the motor vehicle service sector, driven by an estimated 10% annual increase in the number of motorcycles. Unfortunately, this market potential remains largely untapped due to the lack of technical and entrepreneurial skills among the unemployed youth. The Prodi and Nagari Integration Program (PIPN) Life Skill was established to bridge this gap with a dual objective, enhancing motorcycle mechanic competence and fostering entrepreneurship through hands-on practice. The program was comprehensively designed, encompassing needs analysis, development of a curriculum based on local potential, technical training (covering both conventional and EFI injection systems), instruction in workshop management, and post-training business mentoring. Program results indicate a significant increase in participant competence, with 85% demonstrating the ability to perform repairs independently and 30% having successfully initiated small-scale repair businesses. This success underscores the critical importance of synergy between universities and village governance in empowering communities based on sustainable local potential, thereby contributing directly to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Abstract

Farmer groups in Sidorejo Village, Blitar, face significant challenges characterized by the low added value of pineapple harvests and minimal innovation in post-harvest processing, including waste utilization. This community service project aimed to enhance the skills of partner groups in processing pineapple fruit and peel into economically valuable probiotic beverages using fermentation methods packaged attractively. The activity primarily involved the PKK women's group of Sidorejo Village and was conducted in-person. The methodology included education, direct demonstration of product creation, named Pinaboocha (pineapple kombucha) and Pinatepa (pineapple tepache), and packaging mentoring. Post-training evaluation revealed a significant increase in competence while 85% of participants understood the benefits of Pinaboocha and Pinatepa, and 85% expressed interest in developing these beverages into a business. These findings demonstrate that innovating the processing of pineapple fruit and waste through fermentation not only increases product quality but also successfully creates new, sustainable business opportunities based on local potential.
