Abstract

Training in the use of Media Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) in SD Negeri 1 Wonoboyo, a significant change in the understanding and practice of using technology in learning is seen. Before the training, the majority of teachers relied on PowerPoint as the main tool in learning, but after participating in the PPG program, some teachers began to adopt TPACK media such as Lifeworksheet, Kahoot. The process of designing learning media based on TPACK is also not optimal, especially in ensuring the effectiveness of learning during the pandemic. During the training, teachers were given an in-depth understanding of the TPACK concept, including the role of each component in the learning context. They were also given direct demonstrations on how to use various media in learning as well as being involved in practicum and training. Group discussions and constructive feedback also help them improve their skills in integrating technology learning. In addition, teachers are also given the task of planning the use of technology in daily learning in the classroom. The evaluation results show an increase in the creativity of teachers in presenting TPACK learning materials.

Abstract

Wasting (acute malnutrition) is a major nutritional problem in Indonesia, with a prevalence of 7.7% in 2022, still above the WHO maximum standard. Wasting is a condition in which a child's weight drops significantly below the standard growth curve or is considered low (thin). This condition can be caused by inadequate food intake or infectious diseases. The impacts of wasting include decreased immunity, an increased risk of illness and even death, and impaired growth and development. This community service activity aims to increase the knowledge of mothers of toddlers regarding wasting and stunting, as well as their prevention. The methods used were outreach and education (counseling) through lectures and discussions. This activity was held in Mojopahit Village, Punggur District, Central Lampung Regency. The target group was mothers of toddlers, with 21 participants. Knowledge assessment was conducted using pre- and post-tests. Educational media used included leaflets and videos, including a video of Tuina massage. The results of the activity showed an increase in mothers' knowledge of wasting and stunting and their prevention. The average pre-test score increased from 72.86 to 87.14, resulting in a 14.28-point increase in knowledge.

Abstract

Batik is an Indonesian cultural heritage recognized by UNESCO as Intangible Cultural Heritage since 2009. In the midst of modern industrial development, conventional batik production faces serious challenges related to environmental impacts from synthetic chemical dye use. This community service program aims to develop environmentally friendly batik by integrating proper financial analysis and financing strategies for SME craftspeople, while linking it to the sustainable tourism ecosystem. Financial studies include investment feasibility analysis (Net Present Value/NPV, Internal Rate of Return/IRR, and Payback Period), social capital-based financing structures, and potential access to green financing from financial institutions. Activities were carried out at Tapak Dara Village, Meteseh Sub-district, Tembalang District, Semarang City in February 2026, involving at least 30 batik artisans. Expected outcomes include improved financial literacy of craftspeople, development of bankable business models, at least 30% income growth, and the creation of high-value creative ecotourism packages. This program contributes to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly goals 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth) and 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production).

Abstract

Reading interest is an important foundation in the learning process, especially in early childhood education. However, the lack of supporting facilities such as reading corners is one of the obstacles in fostering reading habits among kindergarten children. This community service program (PKM) aims to increase reading interest and the quality of early childhood learning through the creation of a reading corner at Buton 2 Public Kindergarten. The implementation method includes an initial survey, planning the design of the reading corner, procuring age-appropriate reading materials, and implementing and evaluating joint reading activities. The results of this program show an increase in children's enthusiasm for reading activities and increased teacher involvement in utilizing the reading corner as a learning medium. The reading corner not only serves as a literacy tool, but also creates a fun and interactive learning environment to prevent excessive use of technology that impacts children's literacy skills. This program is expected to become a model for literacy empowerment in early childhood education in other regions.

Abstract

This Student Creativity Program (PKM) activity aims to optimize students’ creativity and collaboration through the application of Project-Based Learning (PjBL) in teaching rhythmic movement within the Physical Education, Sports, and Health (PJOK) curriculum. The method used is a qualitative descriptive approach, with activities consisting of outreach, training, mentoring, implementation, and evaluation. The subjects of the activity were 30 junior high school (SMP) students selected using purposive sampling. The students were divided into small groups to collaboratively design and present rhythmic movement projects. Data collection techniques included observation, interviews, and documentation, while data analysis was conducted through data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results of the activity showed that the application of PjBL was able to enhance students’ creativity in creating movement variations, as well as improve their collaboration skills through more effective group work. Additionally, there was an increase in student engagement, self-confidence, and participation during the learning process. Students’ responses to this learning model were also very positive because it provided a more enjoyable and meaningful learning experience and could serve as an alternative innovative learning model in Physical Education (PJOK).
