Abstract

Rapid advancements in technology and information, coupled with increasing anytime, anywhere online access, are transforming how people approach learning and work. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is driving innovation, new ideas, and efficiency across nearly every industrial sector. We conducted this Community Service (People Service Activity) activity to enhance the learning of teachers and foundation administrators at Mizan Amanah Asembaris, Tebet by introducing the benefits and risks associated with AI in education. We employed observation, interviews, and hands-on practice to gather information and provide guidance on the proposed solutions. This approach ensures that the information can be effectively applied and disseminated within the foundation. The program included a presentation on the potential and challenges of AI, followed by an open discussion and a brief practical session on basic tools for daily use, enabling participants to integrate these tools into their work. Ultimately, we hope they will share this knowledge with the children at the orphanage, ensuring they receive practical and applicable information.

Abstract

Japan faces demographic challenges such as an aging population and a labor shortage, while Indonesia possesses a demographic bonus that has not yet been fully absorbed into the domestic labor market. These conditions create opportunities for employment cooperation between the two countries. However, students still encounter gaps in understanding regarding immigration regulations, academic preparedness, and cultural adaptation to Japan’s work environment. This activity, titled "Preparing Your Journey: Life of Foreign Worker in Japan", aims to equip students with knowledge of these aspects through an interactive webinar. Conducted online via Zoom, the activity follows the experiential learning cycle, including pre-test, content delivery by practitioners and experts, interactive Q&A, and post-test. Evaluation results show an increase in average scores from 78 to 90, confirming the effectiveness of this media as pre-departure education to support students’ informed decision-making for international careers.

Abstract

Pilangsari Village in Kendal Regency has an annual shrimp catch potential of 5–10 tons, with part of it processed into shrimp paste by the Coastal Women’s Group consisting of 30 members. The main challenge is the traditional drying process, which takes up to a week and depends heavily on weather conditions, along with ziplock packaging that does not fully seal, leading to rapid quality degradation. This community service activity aims to improve production efficiency through the adoption of appropriate technologies, including a dehydrator and food-grade vacuum packaging. The approach involves coordination, needs assessment, training on equipment use, and ongoing technical support. Results show an expected 80% increase in production capacity and efficiency, along with improvements in skills and product quality. The program aims to reduce weather dependency, extend shelf life, and support sustainable economic independence for coastal communities.

Abstract

This community service program was motivated by the limited utilization of corn husk waste as a valuable material and the suboptimal use of social media as a learning and promotional tool for village-based creative products. The program aimed to improve creativity, productive skills, and digital marketing literacy among residents of Pematang Panjang Village, Sungai Tabuk District, Banjar Regency. A participatory empowerment approach was applied through team coordination, partner problem identification, solution formulation, hands-on workshop implementation, and result publication. The activity was conducted on June 27, 2026, and involved 25 participants. The workshop covered the concept of eco-friendly products, techniques for processing corn husks into flower bouquets and decorative crafts, product design development, simple packaging, and the use of social media for inspiration and promotion. The results showed that participants were able to produce corn husk handicrafts, understand the economic potential of agricultural waste, and gain initial insight into digital promotion. This program is significant as an initial model of village creative economic empowerment based on local skills and digital literacy.

Abstract

This community service activity aims to strengthen children's character in Gemaharjo Village, Trenggalek, through creative education based on local wisdom. The main issues include limited resources, lack of teacher training, minimal integration among schools, families, and the community, and inadequate infrastructure for creative activities. The approach involves structured mentoring using experiential learning following Kolb's cycle (concrete experience, reflection, conceptualization, and experimentation). The activities consist of five stages: screening the Tari Turonggo Yakso video, interactive discussion, sack race game, collaborative poster creation, and final reflection. Results show the internalization of core values such as cooperation, discipline, responsibility, and mutual respect, observed through active participation of children aged 7–15. This activity enhances understanding of integrating local wisdom into meaningful, contextual learning models for community involvement.

Abstract

This Community Service Program (PKM) aims to enhance ethical AI literacy among students and educators to support responsible digital education. The activity employs an educative-participatory approach through four stages: preparation, implementation, evaluation, and reporting. The content covers basic AI concepts, benefits, risks, ethical use, data privacy, and legal aspects. Participants engage in interactive discussions, case studies, responsible AI simulations, and Q&A sessions. The results show improved understanding of ethical AI use, the importance of information verification, maintaining academic integrity, and protecting personal data. Participants can distinguish permissible AI applications from those that may violate ethical standards and recognize AI as a learning aid rather than a substitute for critical thinking. This activity strengthens AI ethical literacy and contributes to creating a safe, responsible, and ethical digital learning ecosystem.
