Abstract

This Community Service Program (PkM) aims to develop junior high school students’ science process skills (SPS) through Science Club activities at a private school in South Tangerang, Indonesia. This activity is a collaboration between the Faculty of Education at Universitas Pelita Harapan and the private school located in the BSD area of Tangerang. Community Service Activities were held every Tuesday from January 24 to April 2024, from 3:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. Western Indonesian Time, and focused on assessing junior high school students' science process skills through their attendance, activities, and involvement during practical work. The method used is direct experimental learning in the laboratory to enhance students’ scientific skills. The Science Club is designed as an extracurricular platform that allows students to explore and practice concepts in Biology, Chemistry, and Physics beyond textbook learning. The program was conducted over eight sessions, where students carried out experiments on topics that are not commonly practiced in schools but can be implemented simply in the laboratory using easily accessible tools and materials. Evaluation using an SPS rubric showed positive results: 80.83% attendance and 73.33% of students achieved an A grade. In addition to improving scientific skills, the program also contributed to students’ educational, health, environmental, and psychological aspects. These results indicate the potential sustainability of the program to support holistic learning based on biblical perspectives.

Abstract

Science literacy is an important competency in 21st-century learning because it is related to the ability to understand scientific concepts and apply them in everyday life. However, students' science literacy skills are still relatively low, partly due to the teacher-centered learning process and the suboptimal use of the environment as a learning resource. Therefore, efforts are needed to improve teachers' capacity in designing contextual and innovative learning. This community service activity aims to improve elementary school teachers' capacity to apply science literacy learning through an environment-based STEAM approach. This community service activity was carried out at Kwadungan Public Elementary School using several stages, namely needs analysis, material socialization, STEAM paradigm reconstruction, science literacy workshops, environmental exploration, and activity evaluation. The results of the activity show that before the activity was carried out, most teachers did not understand the concept of STEAM learning and did not optimally utilize the surrounding environment as a learning resource. After participating in the socialization and training activities, teachers began to understand the basic concepts of STEAM and were able to identify the potential of the environment as a contextual learning resource. Thus, this activity contributed to improving teachers' capacity in terms of understanding, knowledge, and skills in designing innovative and contextual science literacy learning.

Abstract

Native chicken farming in Suci Village, Jember, faces significant challenges, including high mortality rates due to extreme weather and a heavy reliance on chemical antibiotics, which triggers the risk of Antimicrobial Resistance. This community service program aims to implement the downstreaming of superior native chicken strains developed by the Avian Immunity research team through a "Zero Antibiotic" management system to achieve household food sovereignty. The methodology employed is participatory empowerment using the "Agent of Change Model" strategy, focusing on a pilot project unit in Gaplek Hamlet. Initiated on December 10, 2025, the program synergized with the Village Head, Hamlet Head, and local police (Bhabinkamtibmas), designating Adelia Nur Fahmi (a Biology student and KIP scholarship recipient) as the primary agent of change. The implementation phases included the construction of biosecurity-based semi-intensive housing, the introduction of superior strain chicks, training in probiotic-based fermented feed production, and the application of local feed additive herbal (turmeric and ginger) as natural immunomodulators. Results indicate a significant improvement in the partner's technical skills, evidenced by a livestock survival rate of 84%. Currently, the pilot unit has entered the production phase, providing healthy eggs as a high-quality animal protein source to prevent stunting at the household level. The high level of community enthusiasm and the village government's request to replicate the program for underprivileged families demonstrate the success of this model as a sustainable circular economy prototype for rural areas.

Abstract

Inappropriate use of household medicine poses risks of side effects, adverse interactions, and hazards due to improper storage and disposal. This education activity was conducted to increase public knowledge and awareness regarding the DAGUSIBU (Get, Use, Save, Dispose) concept among members of the PKK group in Gonggangan Hamlet, Bolon, Colomadu, Karanganyar, Central Java. The materials provided included how to obtain medicine from official facilities such as pharmacies, usage according to dosage and indication, correct storage to maintain stability, and safe and responsible disposal of expired medicine . The delivery method consisted of interactive presentations and discussions, followed by training on the application of appropriate technology for producing instant ginger milk made from fresh ginger, lemongrass, cloves, cinnamon, cardamom, sugar, and fresh cow's milk. This training aimed to enhance skills based on local potential while opening opportunities for small and medium enterprises. Evaluation using pre-post tests showed an increase in average knowledge scores from 62.5 to 87.3 (+ 39.68%), with 90.6% of participants stating they would apply this knowledge in their daily lives. Some participants also expressed interest in developing the production of instant ginger milk for family consumption and local sales. The results indicated that DAGUSIBU education is effective in increasing awareness of proper medicine use, while appropriate technology-based training triggers entrepreneurial motivation. The combination of these two activities is expected to encourage independence in maintaining family health while improving the economic welfare of their households.

Abstract

The Balinese Calendar, known as the Wariga Calendar, played a significant role in the religious and cultural life of Hindus, particularly in Bali. It was commonly found in Balinese Hindu households and remained an important reference for Balinese Hindus living outside the island. The Wariga Calendar represented a unique integration of Hindu philosophical values with scientific and mathematical calculations. One of its primary functions was determining the cycles of Hindu holy days and major festivals, including Saraswati, Pagerwesi, Galungan, and Kuningan. The introduction of the Wariga Calendar, especially its scientific and mathematical aspects, was considered important for Hindu Religious Education teachers throughout Indonesia. First, the holy days calculated using the Wariga Calendar had been celebrated by Hindu communities across the Indonesian archipelago, not only by the Balinese ethnic community. Second, only a limited number of Hindu Religious Education teachers outside Bali understood the mathematical principles underlying the calendar system. An introduction to the Wariga Calendar was delivered during a National Technical Guidance Program (Bimbingan Teknis) for Hindu Religious Education teachers held in a hybrid format on 2–3 August 2025. The program involved participants from various regions of Indonesia. The results showed that most participants considered the knowledge valuable for improving their understanding of the cyclical nature of Hindu holy days. Furthermore, many participants recognized that several elements of the Wariga Calendar exhibited mathematical patterns that were closely aligned with the philosophical messages embedded in the calendar, particularly those associated with the Galungan festival.

Abstract

Vegetable waste is often discarded without further processing, which can lead to environmental pollution. In fact, this waste still contains 12.64%–23.5% crude protein and 20.76%–29.18% crude fiber, which can be repurposed into an environmentally friendly, value-added product: fish pellets. The lack of understanding regarding this waste poses a challenge, necessitating alternative solutions. This outreach method serves as an educational solution to enhance understanding of the potential of vegetable waste as a raw material for fish pellets. The outreach activity was conducted at SMK Muhammadiyah 7 Gondanglegi and was attended by students from various departments. The implementation stages included preparation, outreach, and evaluation. During this activity, participants were provided with materials on the benefits of vegetable waste and the steps for processing it into fish pellets. A question-and-answer session followed this to allow participants to explore the material in greater depth. The results of this activity have tangibly improved participants' understanding of processing vegetable waste into fish pellets. Participants played an active role and participated enthusiastically in this activity, creating a positive impact on both the participants and the school. Consequently, this activity can be further developed with the school's support to ensure the program's sustainability.

Abstract

This community service program was conducted as an effort to promote environmental awareness from an early age through tree-planting activities in the school environment. Tree planting not only contributes to environmental sustainability but also serves as an effective learning medium for fostering environmentally responsible attitudes among elementary school students. Therefore, educational activities that actively engage students are essential for developing positive habits and environmental stewardship from an early age. Based on this background, the program aims to enhance the knowledge and skills of sixth-grade students at a Madrasah Ibtidaiyah regarding environmental conservation through tree-planting activities. The implementation method included educational sessions on the ecological importance of trees, the benefits of school greening programs, and proper tree-planting techniques. Following the theoretical session, students engaged in hands-on tree-planting activities in designated areas of the school under the guidance of the program team. The results indicated an improvement in students' understanding of environmental conservation and the benefits of trees for both human life and ecosystems. The students were able to demonstrate basic tree-planting skills correctly and showed increased concern for environmental preservation. Their enthusiasm throughout the activities suggests that practice-based learning is an effective approach for environmental education at the elementary school level. This program is expected to serve as an initial step toward fostering sustainable environmental awareness and positive environmental behaviors among students, both within the school setting and in the broader community.
