Abstract

The Community Service Program (KKN) is a form of community service aimed at helping overcome various social problems, particularly in the fields of education and literacy. The low interest in reading among the community encourages the need to provide alternative learning spaces that are easily accessible. This study aims to describe the implementation of the Community Reading Garden (TBM) program as a means of education and social interaction for children in RW 02, Marga Mulya Village. The method used is qualitative research with a descriptive approach through the stages of program planning, implementation, and evaluation. TBM activities are carried out at the Village Hall by involving children from early childhood to elementary school age through reading, writing, counting, coloring, reading together, and character-building activities such as making anti-bullying posters. The results of the activities indicate that the TBM program is able to increase children's interest in learning, participation, and self-confidence. This program also serves as a social space that supports the strengthening of literacy culture and character building in the community.

Abstract

Hypertension is one of the non-communicable diseases with an increasing prevalence in Indonesia and is often not detected early due to the low level of public awareness in conducting regular health monitoring. The use of wearable technology such as smartwatches can serve as an alternative tool for independent health monitoring that is easily accessible to the community. This community service activity aimed to improve public understanding of independent health monitoring using smartwatches and to increase awareness of the importance of blood donation. The activity was conducted in RW VII Gunungpati Village, Semarang City, involving 114 participants from the PKK community group. The methods used included educational socialization, smartwatch usage demonstrations, and evaluation through pretest and posttest to measure changes in participants’ knowledge levels. The results showed a significant increase in participants’ understanding of health monitoring and smartwatch utilization, where the good knowledge category increased from 15.8% in the pretest to 68.4% in the posttest. In addition, participants’ understanding of the role of the Indonesian Red Cross and the importance of blood donation also increased from 18.4% to 73.7%. These findings indicate that wearable technology-based education is effective in improving community health literacy and has the potential to support the development of a Blood Donor Cadre Village program in Gunungpati.

Abstract

Indonesia is the country with the second highest prevalence of stunting in children under five in Southeast Asia, which in 2022 reached 31.8%. Preschool-age children are one of the groups of children at high risk of stunting. One strategy to overcome nutrition problems is to increase teachers' knowledge about the importance of health checks for students. Community service will be held at the Al-Mumtaz IT Kindergarten in Pontianak Kota District in October. The target is teachers and students. All teachers  of Al-Mumtaz IT Kindergarten  will receive training in stunting detection and education. The procedures for this community service activity are divided into several stages, namely checking the weight and height of students and analyzing the prevalence of stunting, training for teachers in detecting stunting; and providing stunting education to all teachers of Al-Mumtaz IT Kindergarten. Training activities will be carried out in the form of educational video presentations, interactive lectures and stunting early detection examination practices which begin with a pretest and end with a posttest. Then the data will be collected and articles will be made that will be published in the PKM journal, besides that a video of the implementation of the activity will also be made and published in the online media.

Abstract

This community service activity aims to introduce and implement Kahoot as a digital learning media to improve the learning interest of Sunday School children at HKBP Resort Dame Church. The background of this activity is the lack of variation in teaching methods, which tends to be monotonous and less engaging for children. The method used includes socialization, training, and direct practice of using Kahoot in the learning process. The results show that the use of Kahoot significantly increases students’ enthusiasm, participation, and motivation. Children become more active and interested because the learning process is packaged in an interactive and fun way. In addition, teachers gain new insights into the use of digital learning media. Thus, Kahoot can be an effective alternative learning media to support interactive and innovative teaching.

Abstract

Musculoskeletal disorders are a common occupational health problem among workers in the informal sector, including those in the food processing industry. Manual work activities, such as prolonged standing, bending, and repetitive movements of the shoulders, arms, and wrists, can increase the risk of upper extremity pain. Furthermore, workers' poor understanding of Occupational Safety and Health (OHS) principles and work ergonomics can exacerbate these conditions. Therefore, preventive measures are needed through an OHS education program accompanied by stretching exercises. This activity aims to reduce upper extremity pain while increasing workers' knowledge of OHS. The method used was a pre-experimental design with a one-group pre-test and post-test approach involving 10 food processing workers aged 22–60 years. Pain levels were measured using a Numeric Rating Scale (NRS), while respondents' knowledge was assessed through pre-test and post-test questionnaires. The results showed a decrease in upper extremity pain levels after the intervention, with the average pain score before the intervention ranging from 4–5 to around 3 after the intervention. Furthermore, there was an increase in respondents' knowledge of occupational health and safety (K3), as evidenced by the increase in the number of correct answers, from an average of 3–4 to around 9–10 after the education.

Abstract

This community service program aims to strengthen the local historical edu-tourism in Lampung through tourism guide training for History Education students. Historical edu-tourism serves as a medium to introduce and educate the public about the historical and cultural values embedded in historical sites. Lampung, as a province rich in historical sites, has great potential to develop educational tourism destinations that can attract tourists and raise awareness of the importance of cultural preservation. This training was held in two main sessions: the first session provided theoretical understanding of historical edu-tourism and the potential historical sites in Lampung, as well as effective historical tour guiding techniques; the second session focused on field practice, where students were trained to become competent tour guides by using storytelling techniques and digital media to enrich the tourist experience. Students were equipped with skills to present historical narratives in an engaging and interactive manner, as well as to utilize technology to make the tour more dynamic and informative. Through this training, students are expected to actively contribute to the development of the historical tourism sector in Lampung, by applying the knowledge they gained in historical tour guiding and contributing to efforts to preserve local cultural heritage. This community service program also aims to raise public awareness of the importance of historical edu-tourism as part of educational tourism, which can provide economic benefits while introducing the cultural values of Lampung to the outside

Abstract

This community service program aimed to improve English learning autonomy and digital literacy skills of 11th-grade students of SMA IT Imam Syafi’i Cendikia Pekanbaru through the use of Augmented Reality (AR)-based learning applications. This issue was raised due to the low level of independence in learning English and digital literacy among Year 11 students at Imam Syafi'i Cendikia Islamic High School in Pekanbaru. The English learning process still tends to rely on teacher explanations and textbooks, so students are not accustomed to learning independently and utilising digital technology optimally.The activity was conducted through three stages: preparation, implementation, and continuous mentoring. The preparation stage involved needs analysis, interviews with English teachers, and material development based on the school curriculum. The implementation phase was carried out through digital media socialization, demonstration, and direct practice using AR applications to support vocabulary mastery, pronunciation, and daily communication. A total of 30 students participated actively in the training and were guided to operate the digital learning applications independently. The final stage involved online mentoring through WhatsApp, email, and phone communication to ensure learning sustainability. This implementation proves that reality ‘enhanced’ through AR is not merely a tool, but a new ecosystem that improves the quality of language education. This technology is considered highly feasible, with a feasibility rating of 93.13% from media experts. Although this simulation is hyperrealistic, its educational impact on students' motivation, confidence, and linguistic mastery is very real.

Abstract

Gunung Silanu Village has abundant potential for breadfruit harvests, but its utilization is still limited to the sale of raw fruit with low economic value. The main problems faced by partners are the rapid deterioration of the fruit after harvest and a lack of skills in food processing technology. This Community Service Program (PKM) activity aims to provide farmer groups and housewives with skills in processing breadfruit into flour. Methods used included outreach, hands-on training, and packaging assistance. The activity results showed an 80% increase in participants' understanding of the hygienic breadfruit flour production process. The resulting breadfruit flour has the potential to replace wheat flour as a raw material for local home industries, directly increasing the economic value of breadfruit and supporting food security in Gunung Silanu Village.

Abstract

This community service project aims to teach people how to turn organic waste into compost. The simplest technique to use, composting can enhance the quality of the environment. The Roudlotus Saidiyyah Islamic Boarding School in Semarang was the site of the community service project. The Islamic boarding school's students had not yet sorted their waste, therefore this exercise was done. Kitchen waste accounted for the majority of the waste generated. Typically, kitchen waste is burned or dumped in the Jatibarang Landfill after being placed in the trash. CBPR, or community-based participatory research, was the approach adopted. In addition to offering counseling, this approach motivates students to actively engage in the service project. The activity's outcomes demonstrated an improvement in the students' comprehension of the 3R idea (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle) and their ability to compost.
