Abstract

Sanggar Rangkiang Salayo, a women's business group specializing in knitting, strives for continuous innovation to ensure consumers' sustainability of its product acceptance. One innovative approach involves integrating knitting with batik patterns in each new product. To maintain the sustainability of creating combination products with unique batik motifs that can serve as the hallmark of Rayo products, the Sanggar Rangkiang participated in a training program in collaboration with Salingka Tabek Batik, renowned as a producer of distinctive Solok batik. The training method employed included training and mentoring in both hand-drawn and stamped batik, covering various stages such as fabric washing, design sketching, wax application, and coloring. At each stage, participants received guidance from instructors at the Salingka Tabek batik center. Through this training, members of the Rangkiang Salayo Studio expanded their skills from knitting to mastering hand-drawn and stamped batik and successfully created several batik designs. These designs were later incorporated into woven bag products, adding a unique signature touch and increasing the value of Rayo products in the market.

Abstract

Ecotourism integrates natural beauty, conservation, and the welfare of local communities. Bukit Matoa, located in Padang City, West Sumatra, presents promising ecotourism potential but faces challenges related to sanitation and visitor safety. Identified issues include domestic waste accumulation, lack of firefighting infrastructure, unsafe trekking routes, and inadequate first aid facilities. An empowerment program targeting the Tourism Awareness Group, called as Pokdarwis, was conducted to address these challenges. The activities involved education on waste composting, mosquito vector control, ergonomic trekking route design, and basic firefighting techniques. The target of Socialization was cadres who were members of the Tourism Awareness Group. The activity was conducted at the Pokdarwis chairman's house in the Bukit Matoa area. The results of the socialization showed that a team was formed to improve the design of new stairs, there was planning for toilet repairs along with the cleaning responsible person, increased knowledge of cadres about how to use fire extinguishers and reducing the fire risk in ecotourism, as well as there is a plan to create a location for collecting household waste for making compost. Furthermore, continuous stakeholder engagement and program execution are recommended to optimize the site's potential.

Abstract

The Moringa plant, a tropical species, exhibits prolific growth and is abundantly present in Indonesia and other tropical regions worldwide. An extended lifespan, continuous flowering, and a high tolerance for elevated temperatures characterize it. Utilizing its components, including leaves, bark, seeds, and roots, this multifaceted plant is renowned for its therapeutic properties. The plant's antioxidants and various nutrients, including vitamins and minerals (iron, magnesium, vitamin B6, vitamin B2, vitamin C, and vitamin A), have led to studies on the plant's potential health benefits. In order to develop the local economy in Ulakan village, Padang Pariaman Regency, Moringa plants were processed by using the plant leaves to manufacture herbal tea, which can then be sold. This community service program was significant given the widespread presence and ease of cultivation of Moringa plants within the local region. The program involved the planning and selection of the activity site, the implementation of training sessions, and the assessment of the program's outcomes. The result of this community engagement initiative was the demonstrated interest of many participants in producing Moringa leaf tea.

Abstract

The practice of cultivating Galo-galo bees has been steadily developing each year in West Sumatra. All parts of the Galo-galo bee, from honey to propolis, can be effectively utilized to produce commercial products, thereby enhancing the community's economy. Community service activities at Sungkai Green Park Ecotourism (ESGP) in Lambung Bukit Village, Padang, assist the community in cultivating Galo-galo bees. These activities involved providing colonies, conducting socialization sessions, offering mentoring and discussions, and collecting data on local plants and insects. Additionally, knowledge regarding the use and processing of honey and propolis was shared. These community service activities, conducted from September to December 2023, have had a positive impact, particularly on the community around the ESGP area. This aligns with the goal of the initiative, which is to provide education and hands-on practice in Galo-galo bee cultivation.

Abstract

By current global needs, students are expected to be able to adapt to a rapidly changing world and participate actively in society. Students must become lifelong learners who need reading literacy and numeracy literacy competencies. Literacy Numeracy, often called numeracy, can be interpreted as the ability to apply mathematical concepts and skills to solve practical problems in everyday life. Starting in 2021, this ability will be measured through the Minimum Competency Assessment (AKM) aimed at classes V, VIII, and XI. The aim is to obtain information about the quality of a school so that it becomes a basis for improving the learning process in that school, especially concerning students' numeracy and literacy abilities. The problem faced by the Shalih Children's Character IT SMPS (KAS) is a lack of guidance on students' numeracy literacy skills needed to take AKM. Therefore, the Service Team from the Department of Mathematics and Data Science felt it necessary to carry out service at SMPS IT KAS as a continuation of the guidance that had been carried out in the previous year. The method used is to apply the Contextual Teaching Learning model, which helps teachers link learning material with real life and encourages students to connect their knowledge with application in everyday life. It is hoped that implementing this service can help teachers guide students in preparing for AKM in the following year.

Abstract

Class II Special Juvenile Rehabilitation Center (LPA) in Tanjung Pati faces significant challenges in fostering adolescents, mainly due to the lack of knowledge about sexual education. This lack of awareness increases the risk of HIV and Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) among LPA residents. To address this issue, more intensive prevention efforts were needed through comprehensive HIV/AIDS education. This community service program aims to enhance the understanding and awareness of adolescents in LPA regarding sexual education, mainly related to HIV/AIDS, as a concrete step in preventing the transmission of these diseases. The partner for this program is the Special Development Institution for Children Class II Tanjung Pati, focusing on male adolescents aged 14-19. The program results positively impacted the overall outcome, significantly increasing participants' understanding scores from pre- to post-intervention. Data analysis confirms that the intervention significantly improved participants' knowledge of HIV and STIs. The program needs continuous training for educators and staff at LPA on sexual education and the development of more comprehensive and integrated HIV prevention programs within the institution. This program not only succeeded in achieving its objectives but also provided hope for strengthening awareness and understanding of the importance of sexual education as a preventive measure against HIV and STIs among adolescents in LPA.

Abstract

A low level of knowledge related to the causative factors, signs and symptoms, dangers, prevention, and treatment of diabetes mellitus (DM) causes an increasing number of DM sufferers worldwide, including in Indonesia. This community service activity aims to increase public knowledge, especially in the office environment, about DM disease and conduct early detection of DM. Participants in the community service activities consisted of 90 employees of an Accountant's office in North Jakarta. The community service activities included education about DM disease, tests of blood sugar, and question-and-answer discussions about DM. The results showed an increase in knowledge by 20.3% based on the score obtained from the pretest compared to the posttest. Based on the blood sugar test results, 98.9% of participants had blood sugar levels within normal limits, 1.1% were below average (hypoglycemia), and 1.1% were at risk of DM. This activity concludes that educational activities can increase participants' knowledge about DM disease, so it is hoped that the community can implement a healthy lifestyle to prevent DM disease and reduce the number of DM sufferers.
