Abstract

This program aimed to enhance the role of youth as pioneers in increasing voter participation in the regional elections (Pilkada) in Kediri Regency through political education outreach based on the Participatory Action Research (PAR) method. PAR was selected due to its emphasis on active involvement of young voters in the planning, implementation, and evaluation stages, thereby ensuring more relevant and effective outcomes. Findings from the program revealed that low political participation among youth stems from a lack of political understanding, a sense of disconnection from political processes, and general apathy. Many young people perceived no meaningful link between election results and their daily lives. During the implementation phase, outreach activities were conducted in informal settings, such as coffee shops, which proved more effective in attracting youth attention. This method succeeded in increasing young voters’ political interest and understanding, as interview results showed a positive shift in attitudes toward the significance of their role in regional elections. Interactive approaches relevant to youths' daily lives, including informal discussions and election simulations, had a significant impact on raising political awareness. Formerly apathetic youths began to recognize the importance of their voices in the local democratic process. Based on the evaluation, this model of outreach is recommended for broader application in other regions facing low youth voter turnout.

Abstract

This community service project aims to explore the effectiveness of Islamic podcasts as a medium for bullying prevention awareness among Muslim adolescents. The Islamic podcast was selected as an educational tool to deliver messages about the dangers of bullying and preventive measures through an approach grounded in Islamic values. The program employed a digital education approach, and its effectiveness was assessed using pre- and post-intervention surveys to measure changes in adolescents’ knowledge, attitudes, and engagement after listening to the podcast. The results revealed a significant increase in adolescents’ understanding of bullying, as well as more positive attitudes toward the importance of reporting and avoiding such behavior. Moreover, active participation in interactive discussions during the podcast and engagement on social media platforms indicated that interactive elements reinforced comprehension and the overall impact of the messages. These findings suggest that Islamic podcasts are an effective tool for educating and preventing bullying among youth and may serve as a long-term strategy to foster a safer and more compassionate social environment.

Abstract

Pesantren, as Islamic educational institutions in Indonesia, play a crucial role in teaching the Qur'an through tahfizh (Qur’anic memorization) programs. However, a key challenge lies in promoting these programs to the wider public, particularly in the digital era. This community engagement project aimed to provide digital marketing training through a workshop, focusing on the use of Instagram to promote tahfizh programs. The workshop was attended by pesantren administrators and covered essential topics such as digital marketing fundamentals, creative content creation, and the use of Instagram features—including photos, videos, and Instagram Stories—to attract public attention. The results showed a significant improvement in participants’ understanding of Instagram as a promotional tool, with 85% reporting increased confidence in using the platform. Additionally, participants successfully created engaging and effective promotional content, leading to higher viewership and audience engagement. A short-term impact observed was the rise in registration for tahfizh programs at several pesantren. Nevertheless, ongoing monitoring and evaluation are needed to ensure the sustainability of these outcomes. Overall, the workshop made a positive contribution by enhancing the digital literacy of pesantren administrators and enabling them to leverage digital technology to promote their tahfizh programs.

Abstract

This community service activity on the dissemination of an Islamic law module plays a significant role in fostering students' awareness and responsibility toward environmental preservation. Through the socialization of the Islamic Law and Environment module, students at the Madrasah demonstrated a notable improvement in their understanding of Islamic principles related to environmental sustainability. Evaluation results indicate that students not only comprehended the concepts of Islamic law concerning the environment but also actively participated in environmental initiatives, such as campaigns and tree planting, reflecting the practical application of these values in daily life. The module has effectively equipped students with the necessary knowledge to implement Islamic teachings in preserving nature and has encouraged them to become environmentally conscious agents of change. The application of Islamic legal principles in education and social practices can strengthen environmental sustainability at both local and global levels. By integrating Islamic values into education, a younger generation can be nurtured with a greater sense of responsibility toward nature, capable of applying religious teachings to maintain harmony between humanity and the environment.

Abstract

This community service program aims to improve the communication skills and TOEIC scores of D3 Mechanical Engineering students at PSDKU Politeknik Negeri Malang in Kediri City. The background of this activity is the low level of communication skills and English proficiency among engineering students, which has the potential to hinder learning and mastery of the material. The training methods used include blended learning, project-based learning, collaborative learning, and intensive TOEIC training. The participants in the training were final semester students who needed to improve their English skills. The results showed an average increase in TOEIC scores of 150 points and a significant improvement in communication skills, confidence, and readiness to enter the workforce. However, there were still obstacles in listening skills and grammar mastery. Overall, this program has proven to be effective and can be provided to other groups of students to support the improvement of graduate quality who are better prepared to face the national and international workforce.
