Abstract

Dementia is a condition characterized by a decline in memory and cognitive abilities. If left unaddressed, it can result in behavioral changes in the elderly, such as impaired memory, loss of self-recognition, reduced self-care, and hostility toward others. Puzzle therapy involves assembling images that have been divided into pieces, aiming to stimulate cognitive function, train patience, and foster social skills. This group activity therapy was conducted to assess the memory of elderly individuals with dementia. The intervention involved nine elderly participants diagnosed with dementia. Data were collected using the MOCA INA questionnaire and standard operating procedures for puzzle activities. It is recommended that puzzle therapy be implemented regularly for elderly individuals experiencing dementia.

Abstract

This community service program aims to empower parents and teachers at KB Permata Bunda School in Peudada, Bireuen, by enhancing children’s nutritional skills and awareness through training in the preparation of nutritious meatballs and nuggets.

The results showed a significant increase in knowledge, with pretest scores rising from 30% to 85% in the posttest, reflecting a 55% improvement. Furthermore, participants’ skills in preparing nutritious food for children improved from 40% to 90%, indicating a 50% increase in competency. Overall, 90% of participants expressed satisfaction with the training and their ability to prepare nutritious meals for children.

Abstract

This study investigates the role of the SiApik application in supporting the preparation of financial reports for Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs), using Warung Wak Waw in Tarakan City as a case study. MSMEs frequently encounter obstacles in recording and presenting systematic financial reports in accordance with accounting standards. The SiApik application offers a practical digital solution for transaction recording, income statement generation, and financial performance evaluation. Employing a qualitative approach with case study methods, including observation and interviews, the findings demonstrate that the use of SiApik enhances both the accuracy and efficiency of financial recording, while also strengthening the basis for more precise business decision-making. These results suggest that adopting technology in financial management constitutes an effective strategy to advance MSME development in the Tarakan region.

Abstract

Early childhood refers to children aged 0–8 years who are in a stage of physical and mental growth and development. One effective way for children to learn during this period is through play. Learning while playing can be enjoyable and engaging for children. The approach that combines play and learning integrates playful activities into the teaching and learning process, aiming to create a joyful atmosphere and encourage active participation. Community-based research indicates that play-based learning methods are highly effective in enhancing young children’s abilities. This approach not only supports cognitive development but also strengthens social, emotional, and physical aspects. Early childhood education serves as a fundamental stage in shaping children’s abilities and character for the future. During this phase, children experience rapid growth and development, both physically and psychologically; therefore, the learning approach should be designed appropriately and responsively to meet their developmental needs.

Abstract

This study investigates the implementation of a character-based early childhood education (ECE) curriculum in fostering prayer habits among young children at TK ABA Kartini, Binjai City Branch. Employing a qualitative ethnographic approach, the research involved 25 kindergarten B students, utilizing observation, interviews, and documentation for data collection. Findings indicate that the cultivation of religious character—particularly discipline in worship—is facilitated by systematic habituation and consistent teacher role-modeling during daily routines, such as ablution and congregational duha prayers. Teachers serve as exemplars in project-based learning, integrating religious values into thematic activities. The adoption of deep learning strategies enables students to move beyond imitation, promoting reflective understanding and internalization of positive behaviors. Notable behavioral changes include increased independence, responsibility, and regularity in performing prayers, both at school and at home. These results underscore the pivotal function of teachers as role models in nurturing religious character from early childhood through holistic and contextual educational practices.

Abstract

The Palembang City Regional Representative Council (DPRD) acts as a liaison between the government and the people. Through recess activities, hearings, and public dialogues, council members listen directly to the needs and complaints of the community, then bring them to official forums for discussion. Public information disclosure is also an important aspect so that the community can monitor and assess the performance of the DPRD transparently. The method used during community service activities involves utilizing infographics to transform abstract information into more visually accessible forms through a dual-processing system implemented at the Secretariat of the Palembang City DPRD. The results of the community service activities revealed that the primary challenge stems from high workloads caused by suboptimal task distribution and communication. The use of infographics has proven effective in simplifying information, supporting task distribution, and helping staff work more focused and efficiently. From an industrial and organizational psychology perspective, infographics also play a role in reducing cognitive load and fostering a proactive work environment. Therefore, infographics are worthy of development as a practical strategy to enhance work effectiveness and well-being within the government sector.

Abstract

Access to trustworthy health information remains a persistent concern for expectant mothers in Indonesia. In response, an interactive educational initiative was implemented via Instagram Live on the @bumil_pintar account, airing twice weekly from February 3 to May 31, 2025. Across 32 sessions, viewership grew from 64 to 301 per session, with comments rising from 5 to 20. In total, the broadcasts engaged 5,475 viewers and generated 417 comments. While no formal statistical tests were applied, the upward trend in participation is evident. Real-time interaction and steady scheduling set this approach apart from conventional one-way digital education. These findings offer a foundation for strengthening maternal health literacy in digital community settings. Ongoing assessment will be necessary to evaluate its quantitative impact.

Abstract

The Deep Learning method aims to create a learning experience that is not only deeper, but also enjoyable and meaningful for students. Instead of simply memorizing facts, students are encouraged to think critically, reflect on what they learn, and connect new knowledge to their daily lives. This approach highlights three important aspects: Mindful Learning, which helps students become more aware and intentional in their learning; Meaningful Learning, which ensures that lessons are relevant and have a real impact; and Joyful Learning, which brings a sense of happiness and enthusiasm into the classroom. In this community service program, the authors set out to introduce and strengthen teachers’ understanding of Deep Learning. The activities included sharing theories, discussing practical examples from different regions, and inviting teachers to reflect on their own experiences. The program was held at Huta Bayu Private High School in Simalungun Regency. Based on the initial observations, many teachers felt that Deep Learning is not very different from the independent curriculum, or Kurikulum Merdeka, that has already been put into practice at their school. This shows that while the term may sound new, the main ideas behind Deep Learning are already familiar and have begun to take root in everyday teaching.

Abstract

Indonesian migrant workers in Malaysia encounter ongoing obstacles in securing formal education for their children. These barriers stem primarily from unresolved citizenship status and insufficient documentation. While Community Learning Centers (CLCs) offer basic education for children aged eight and above, early childhood development support remains inadequate. Limited parental knowledge and mothers' demanding work schedules further compound these challenges. This community service program aims to strengthen parenting skills among migrant worker parents, empowering them to better support their children's development. The initiative encompasses structured parenting workshops and play-based learning sessions designed to enhance parent-child interactions while fostering children's self-confidence and learning motivation. The program's primary beneficiaries are migrant worker parents and their children enrolled at the Gombak Utara Community Learning Center in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The intervention employs the Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) approach, emphasizing active community participation and collaborative problem-solving. Findings demonstrate enhanced maternal understanding of quality parenting practices through nurturing interactions, play activities, supportive home learning environments, appropriate parenting approaches, and Islamic values integration. Participants exhibited notable shifts in parenting attitudes, evidenced by heightened awareness in evaluating their previously employed parenting methods.
