Abstract

This qualitative research examines the implementation of Inquiry-Based Learning (IBL) through the ancient tombs and historical sites of the Sultan Barumun era to enhance historical thinking skills among students at Madrasah Aliyah Negeri (MAN) Barumun. Involving 50 students, 3 history teachers, 4 community guides, and 2 school administrators, the study employed mixed qualitative methods including structured observations (8 sessions), semi-structured interviews (7 participants), focus group discussions (2 sessions with 30 students), document analysis, student learning journals (weekly reflections), and site visits over a four-month period. Data were analyzed using thematic analysis with open and axial coding procedures to identify patterns in student engagement, understanding, and skill development. Results revealed significant improvements in students' historical thinking skills across six dimensions: source analysis and interpretation (7-student increase to Proficient level), historical contextualization (7-student increase), causation and chronological reasoning (16-student increase), evidence-based argumentation (Advanced category achievement), perspective recognition (38 students in Advanced category), and synthesis and conceptualization (1-student progression to Proficient level). Thematic analysis identified six primary themes: enhanced critical engagement (23 occurrences), deepened historical understanding (28 occurrences), active participation and agency (31 occurrences), emotional connection to heritage (26 occurrences), collaborative learning dynamics (29 occurrences), and implementation challenges (17 occurrences). The study demonstrates that IBL through culturally significant historical sites effectively develops students' capacity for historical thinking while fostering emotional connections to local Islamic heritage and regional identity..

Abstract

This community service activity is carried out as a form of academic contribution to enhance the knowledge and skills of the community, especially the Kelompok Ternak Amerta Sari in Kesiut Village, in processing and preserving local resources as alternatives for livestock feed, particularly for Bali cattle. The issues faced by farmers in this area include limited availability of fresh feed, especially during the dry season, and the suboptimal use of local feed materials such as straw, turi leaves, and other agricultural waste. Through this activity, the service team provides training and guidance in feed processing techniques such as fermentation, silage, and the production of complete feed based on local resources. The methods used include counseling, technical demonstrations, and hands-on practice together with the farmer group members. The results of this activity show an increase in the understanding and skills of the community in preserving and processing livestock feed.

Abstract

The International Collaborative Community Service Program, conducted by the Forestry Study Program of the Faculty of Forestry and Environmental Sciences in collaboration with the University of Technology of Mara, Malaysia, aims to: Provide training on utilizing sengon/jabon wood waste (harvested) by converting it into wood pellets as a renewable energy source; and Increase the economic value of community forests by improving the quality of primary wood and creating value-added products from waste. This community service activity is implemented through outreach and practical training on making wood pellets from sengon/jabon waste, introducing the potential of wood waste as a renewable energy source. Techniques for collecting, drying, and shredding wood waste, as well as the process of molding the shredded waste into pellets, are also covered. After this activity, community forest farmer groups can utilize and convert previously unused waste from sengon and jabon felling into wood pellet products. Environmental benefits include more sustainable forest management and reduced wood waste, which can otherwise pollute the environment. The expected benefits for the partner (UiTM) include applying existing knowledge and technology in the context of international community service and strengthening collaborative networks.

Abstract

Tropical diseases remain important determinants of reproductive health in endemic regions; However, screening for these infections is rarely integrated into reproductive health services at the primary care level. This fragmentation contributes to low early detection and an increased risk of complications among women of reproductive age. This community service program aims to develop and implement an integrated model for tropical disease screening within reproductive health services at Puskesmas Amplas, Medan City. The program employed a pre–post intervention design involving women of reproductive age (15–49 years) selected through stratified random sampling. The intervention included clinical screening, health education, and the strengthening of referral and integrated recording systems. The results demonstrated a significant increase in early detection coverage and participants' knowledge, with a substantial proportion of respondents identified as having previously undetected risk factors for tropical diseases. Implementation of the integrated service model also enhanced the capacity of primary healthcare providers in delivering promotional and preventive services. These findings indicate that integrating tropical disease screening into reproductive health services is an effective and scalable approach to strengthening primary healthcare systems in endemic areas and improving community reproductive health outcomes.

Abstract

Strengthening brand identity is a key strategy to enhance SME competitiveness, particularly for New Entrepreneurs (WUB) at the early stages of business development. This community service activity aims to improve the knowledge and skills of WUB members of the Bunda Sejahtera Cooperative, Depok, in creating innovative products, designing effective and informative labeling, and developing market-oriented packaging. The implementation method included interactive lectures, discussions, and hands-on practice in producing a “Café-style Herbal Drink” based on traditional herbs, complemented with modern label and packaging design training. Twenty participants joined the program, dominated by the culinary sector (50%), with capital under Rp 10 million (55%), monthly turnover below Rp 5 million (75%), and social media use limited mainly to WhatsApp (100%). Evaluation was conducted through validity and reliability tests of the questionnaire (SPSS 23) and frequency distribution analysis. All indicators were valid (r > 0.444; p < 0.05) and reliable (Cronbach’s Alpha 0.709–0.797). The average understanding level reached 85%, categorized as “Highly Understand” for Brand Identity, Innovative Products, and Packaging (86%), and “Understand” for Labeling (80%). Practical implementation of innovative product creation reached 86%, surpassing the 65% target. The program resulted in improved knowledge, skills, product health quality, and potential income for partners. This initiative aligns with SDGs 1, 3, 8, 9, 12, and 17, and supports higher education KPI 5. The results show that training integrating theory and practice effectively enhances SME/WUB branding capacity sustainably.

Abstract

Cervical cancer remains one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality among women, particularly in developing countries, largely due to late diagnosis and low participation in early screening programs. Limited knowledge and awareness regarding cervical cancer and Pap smear examinations contribute significantly to delayed detection. This community service activity aimed to increase the knowledge and awareness of the congregation of HKBP Jatisampurna Church, Bekasi, regarding the importance of early detection of cervical cancer through Pap smear examinations. The activity was conducted using interactive educational counseling followed by free Pap smear examination services. Educational sessions covered cervical cancer risk factors, prevention strategies, and the procedures and benefits of Pap smear screening. A total of 50 female congregation members participated in the activity and voluntarily underwent Pap smear examinations. The results demonstrated an improvement in participants’ knowledge and understanding of cervical cancer and the importance of early detection through Pap smear screening. In addition, there was an increased willingness and participation of congregation members in undergoing Pap smear examinations, indicating positive behavioral changes toward preventive health practices. In conclusion, educational counseling combined with direct Pap smear services effectively increased awareness and participation in cervical cancer screening among the HKBP Jatisampurna Church congregation. This community service activity represents a strategic approach to cervical cancer prevention and early detection and highlights the importance of community-based interventions in promoting women’s reproductive health

Abstract

The low level of media literacy among Indonesian communities, combined with the rapid growth of digital media use, has increased public vulnerability to various online risks, particularly illegal online lending practices, digital hoaxes, and personal data misuse. This program aims to analyze the effectiveness of the community outreach initiative “Smart Digital: Protect Your Personal Data and Understand Online Loan Scam Mechanisms” in enhancing public awareness and critical understanding of digital risks. The program was conducted in two sessions using interactive lectures, case-based discussions, simulation activities, and the introduction of the digital verification platform intelligent.digital, involving 56 participants from vulnerable community groups. The evaluation employed a pre-test and post-test design to measure changes in participants' cognitive and psychological aspects. The results indicate a significant improvement in participants' ability to distinguish between legal and illegal online lending services, identify digital hoaxes, and recognize the importance of personal data protection. In addition, participants demonstrated increased risk awareness and proactive behavior in verifying information before making digital decisions. These findings confirm that media literacy is not merely theoretical knowledge, but a fundamental competence required to strengthen public resilience in navigating an increasingly complex and manipulative digital information environment.

Abstract

This qualitative study examines the effectiveness of a community-based digital literacy intervention—Rumah Literasi Digital (Digital Literacy House)—in empowering parents to supervise their children's digital learning in high-density residential neighborhoods. Through semi-structured interviews and focus group discussions with 32 parents and 8 educators from four community learning centers (CLCs) in Jakarta over an eight-month period, we applied Braun and Clarke's reflexive thematic analysis to explore how technology-integrated training programs foster parental empowerment across three dimensions: resource empowerment, critical awareness, and relational empowerment. Findings demonstrate that structured digital parenting interventions significantly enhance parents' capacity to identify and access digital resources, develop critical consciousness about technology risks, and strengthen family communication about online activities. Thematic analysis revealed five overarching themes: (1) Knowledge Construction and Digital Competency Development, (2) Critical Consciousness Formation, (3) Relational Networks and Peer Support, (4) Family Communication Enhancement, and (5) Systemic Barriers and Implementation Challenges. The study contributes evidence-based insights into community-based approaches for addressing the digital divide in resource-constrained urban contexts and offers actionable recommendations for integrating digital parenting literacy into non-formal education frameworks in Indonesia.

Abstract

The implementation of Core Tax, which officially came into effect in Indonesia in January 2025, is part of the tax reform to create a modern, integrated, and digital-based tax administration system. However, the implementation of this system still faces various challenges, especially for Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) that have limited digital literacy and tax understanding. This community service activity aims to improve digital tax literacy and tax compliance of MSMEs in the milkfish processing industry center in Gresik Regency, with UD Multi Sarana Niaga (“Bandeng Mentari”) as a partner. The implementation method includes identifying partner needs, socializing the latest tax regulations, assisting in the use of the Core Tax application, and developing a practical guide module for managing Core Tax for MSMEs. The results of the activity indicate an increase in partner understanding of tax regulations, operational capabilities in using the Core Tax system, and the alignment between commercial and fiscal financial reporting. In addition, this activity raises awareness among MSMEs regarding the role of tax in national development and business sustainability. This program is also strengthened through international dissemination with Rajamangala University of Technology Krungthep (Thailand) which is aligned with Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) point 9 on industry, innovation, and infrastructure.

Abstract

Freedom of expression is a foundational human right and a core precondition for democratic governance, transparency, and public participation. Nevertheless, international and domestic legal orders consistently recognize that this right is not absolute and may be restricted under certain conditions. This article conducts a qualitative, normative–juridical analysis of restrictions on the exercise of freedom of expression in public, examined through the lens of the rule of law. Drawing on international human rights instruments, particularly Article 19 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR) and its “three-part test”, as well as constitutional and statutory norms in Indonesia, the article develops a set of rule-of-law-based criteria for assessing the legitimacy of restrictions. Qualitative doctrinal analysis is combined with thematic examination of case law, statutory frameworks, and critical commentary. The findings show a persistent tension between justified, narrowly tailored limitations and broader, vague or disproportionate restrictions that risk converting the rule of law into “rule by law”. The article concludes by proposing normative benchmarks and practical safeguards to ensure that any limitations on public expression remain compatible with democratic constitutionalism and the rule of law..
