Abstract

Literacy is one of the fundamental skills that every individual must possess to navigate challenges in the era of globalization. A person is considered to have literacy skills if they have mastered the basic language skills of reading and writing. Low interest in reading can cause limitations in obtaining, understanding, and processing information and knowledge, which continues to develop rapidly. As a result, individuals who lack a literacy culture will have difficulty keeping up with current developments in the fields of education, technology and other social aspects. As an effort to overcome this problem, we, as students at Teaching Campus 8, created a work program by building a Reading Corner as a means to increase students' interest and literacy skills at SD INPRES Ndetuwar. It is hoped that the existence of the Reading Corner can be an effective solution in fostering a culture of literacy at SD INPRES Ndetuwaru by providing a reading room that is comfortable, interesting and inspiring for students.

Abstract

Watuneso Subdistrict has great potential in developing an economy based on local resources, especially candlenuts. Candlenut is a superior commodity and is one of the sources of livelihood for the people of Watuneso Village. However, the people of Watuneso Village do not yet know how to process candlenuts further, which can increase the selling price of these candlenuts. This service is carried out to increase community empowerment efforts through training in processing candlenuts into candlenut oil, which has many benefits and to improve the economy of the Watuneso community through optimizing the local potential of candlenuts. It is hoped that this diversification activity in processed candlenut products will improve the economy, considering that the price of candlenut oil on the market is quite high. The training process includes theory and direct practice and involves active community participation. The results show that the training is effective in increasing people's knowledge, skills and motivation. Apart from that, candlenut oil production has the potential to increase the economic income of the community in Watuneso Village.

Abstract

Non-communicable diseases have an impact on many aspects of life. Hyperuricemia is one of the non-communicable diseases. In addition to gout, anaemia is one of the problems experienced by many Indonesian people. Anaemia is a condition in which the number of red blood cells or hemoglobin concentration is less than the normal limit. The purpose of this service is to carry out uric acid and hemoglobin screening in the community in the Palu city area as a post-disaster area. The benefit of this community service activity is that the community can find out the levels of uric acid and hemoglobin from the community so that they can take steps related to the results of the examination. The method used is screening in the form of uric acid and hemoglobin examinations, and also personal counselling in the form of presentations related to the results of the examination and also follow-up suggestions. Participants in this service are people in the Palu city area.

Abstract

Recently, the policy of deep learning approaches has emerged as a key innovation in Indonesian education. In response, teachers must be adequately prepared, both theoretically and practically, to ensure meaningful implementation of this policy. This community engagement activity aimed to enhance the theoretical understanding and practical competence of teachers at SMKS Kesehatan Bali Medika Denpasar regarding assessment for deep learning. The activity was conducted through a workshop method, encompassing the delivery of theoretical concepts on deep learning assessment as well as the development of formative and summative assessment instruments. A total of 30 teachers participated in the workshop, guided by six facilitators from the Biology Education Study Program, Faculty of Teacher Training and Education, Universitas Mahasaraswati Denpasar. The outcomes of the activity were found to be effective. In terms of theoretical understanding, the participants’ presentations demonstrated a comprehensive grasp of assessment for deep learning, particularly in balancing formative and summative assessments and in promoting student involvement through learning feedback, self-assessment, and peer-assessment. In terms of practical competence, the teachers successfully developed problem-based assessment rubrics. A notable improvement was observed between the initial rubrics and those refined through collaborative discussion, particularly in the objectivity of the scoring categories, which shifted from potentially biased to more objective formulations. Despite these improvements in theoretical and practical aspects as targeted, continuous professional development remains essential to sustain and deepen teachers’ understanding amidst evolving educational policies. Furthermore, the development of summative assessment instruments must be expanded beyond problem-based rubrics to include observation checklists, project and product assessment rubrics, as well as portfolio evaluations.

Abstract

This article aims to explain the implementation of community service through the creation of the SI-BAPER application and the benefits that the community derives from this community service activity. The steps for creating the Blanko Information System and Application Flow are as follows: 1) identify service types by grouping land services frequently requested by the public, 2) compile and visualize the application flow for each service, 3) upload PDF or Word files, flow diagrams, and application forms to Google Drive, 4) generate QR codes, 5) design stickers containing the SI-BAPER QR code, 6) affix the QR code at service counters or on notice boards at the Sukoharjo District Land Office and Village Offices, 7) conduct QR code testing with applicants/the public and village officials, and 8) explain the benefits of SI-BAPER to applicants/the public and village officials. The research results show that the SI-BAPER application is a strategic medium for bringing services closer to the village level. The inclusion paradigm is one of the important foundations for creating this application. In its implementation, the community feels greatly assisted by the presence of the SI- BAPER application. The follow-up to the creation of this application is to ensure that it can reach a wider range of village locations. The SI-BAPER application can also be replicated in other land offices as a form of facilitating easy land services. The SI-BAPER application needs to be continued to be synchronised with other public service applications available in the village.

Abstract

Health issues occurring in schools must be addressed promptly to prevent the escalation of diseases. The considerable distance between schools and healthcare facilities presents a significant challenge in managing health-related incidents. The geographical remoteness from healthcare facilities, the vulnerability of adolescents to diseases, and the lack of understanding regarding the importance of prevention over treatment were key considerations for the team in selecting an appropriate method for training emergency response among students at Madrasah Aliyah Pettta, Sangihe Island Regency, North Sulawesi Province, Indonesia. The target group was students in grades 10 and 11. Health education was provided to these students, who were gathered at the school, with the materials delivered by facilitators. Following the educational sessions, practical demonstrations of skills that could be employed to manage specific health conditions were conducted. Participants were then allowed to practice these skills independently. The effectiveness of the activity was assessed through a pre- and post-test to evaluate participants’ understanding of the material. The material was well received by the participants, as evidenced by an increase in their knowledge. Before the session, they had only 32% knowledge, but after the health education sessions, it increased to 93%. Students were also able to perform the skills taught independently. The provision of the health equipment was expected to assist the school in managing unforeseen health emergencies during school events or activities. Emergency response training for students significantly enhances both their skills and knowledge. Identifying common health issues in the community is essential, as it allows for the delivery of targeted health education that empowers students to assist their families at home.

Abstract

Merauke, as a region with a very large potential for flooding, requires early preparedness, one of which is through the integration of disaster mitigation education into school learning. This community service program aims to improve the capacity of science teachers at Muhammadiyah Merauke Middle School in modelling and implementing Problem-Based Learning (PBL) that utilises Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology, Educafe, and Curipod in the context of disaster issues. The implementation method includes a pretest, intensive training (workshop), independent practice mentoring, and a posttest. The training was attended by 10 teachers (3 science teachers and 7 non-science teachers) and 9 Physics education students from Musamus University as co-facilitators. The pretest results showed that teachers' understanding of disaster-based PBL and the use of AI in learning is still relatively low. The training focused on strengthening the concept of PBL, analysing the disaster context in Merauke, and practising using AI Education platforms such as AI Educafe and Curipod to design LKPD and interactive learning media provided by the AI ??education platform. Post-test results showed significant improvements in teachers' conceptual understanding and technical skills in designing learning. This activity concludes that the hybrid training model (theory, practice, and mentoring) is effective in improving teacher competency. Collaboration with students also creates a mutually beneficial learning ecosystem. Continued mentoring and the development of more contextual digital modules are recommended.

Abstract

Learning English is often challenging for junior high school students due to the limited usage of English in daily life, which can hinder their understanding of the subject matter. Learning activities are tasks undertaken by students in the learning process. Factors that can enhance learning activities include motivation provided by teachers to engage students actively in learning and the selection of appropriate and enjoyable teaching methods, one of which is the Grammar Translation Method (GTM). The challenge lies in creating effective and enjoyable learning environments, especially in teaching the simple past tense to eighth-grade students. The community service activity involving eighth-grade students was conducted on April 25, 2024, at Hidayatul Insan School. The activity aimed to strengthen simple past tense proficiency through the Grammar Target Method (GTM), covering three stages: preparation, implementation, and reporting. Implementing simple past tense using the Grammar Translation Method (GTM) for eighth-grade students at MTs Hidayatul Insan has proceeded smoothly and successfully. This is reflected in the high level of student enthusiasm during the learning process. With the implementation of this learning activity, it is hoped that the English language skills, particularly in the simple past tense topic, of eighth-grade students at MTs Hidayatul Insan will significantly improve in writing, reading, listening, and communication.
