Abstract

In today's world, many young individuals still lack effective communication skills, a trend that is evident among university students, particularly those from Generation Z. These students, despite having access to technology and social media, are often not taught how to communicate in a professional and respectful manner. This paper discusses the importance of communication skills and their development through the Interpersonal Skills (KI) course. Within this course, students not only develop communication abilities but also both soft and hard skills essential for their personal and professional growth. The course includes various assessments, one of which is the Community Service (PKM) output. This PKM aims to provide students with practical experience in communication by engaging with external partners and presenting ideas related to their academic programs. The activities conducted under this PKM serve as an assignment for the course, contributing to grades for assignments, Mid-Semester Exams (UTS), and Final Semester Exams (UAS). Students are tasked with creating proposals, reports, posters, and videos as part of the assignment, and for the UTS, they present proposals to their partners. The UAS grade is based on the final report presentation, showcasing the results of their PKM activities. Through the KI course, students gain valuable experience in communicating with external partners, collaborating in teams, and presenting their work confidently in front of their peers. These activities not only enhance students' communication skills but also foster leadership qualities and teamwork, preparing them for professional environments. Thus, the KI course plays a crucial role in developing interpersonal communication skills that are essential in today's interconnected world.

Abstract

The rapid development of technology has made it increasingly important for the younger generation to acquire digital literacy skills at an early age. As technology becomes an integral part of daily life, it is essential to introduce fundamental programming concepts to students to prepare them for the future. This community service program aims to introduce 5th-grade students at Elementary School Emmaus Kediri to basic programming concepts using the Scratch platform. The program adopted the Project-Based Learning (PjBL) method, which emphasizes interactive learning through hands-on activities. The one-day session involved 17 students, who underwent a structured process consisting of a pre-test, material delivery, hands-on practice of creating simple animations, and a post-test. The learning materials included an introduction to the Scratch interface, how to use sprites, and basic coding blocks to develop simple animation projects. The evaluation results indicated a significant increase in students' understanding of basic programming concepts. The majority of participants successfully created simple animation projects using coding blocks and sprites, demonstrating their ability to apply the learned concepts. The students showed high enthusiasm throughout the learning process, indicating a strong interest in digital learning and coding. The high level of engagement further supports the potential for expanding similar programs in the future. This community service activity proved effective in introducing computational thinking and fostering creativity among elementary school students. It also demonstrated the effectiveness of interactive and hands-on learning approaches in enhancing students' digital literacy. As a result, this program has the potential to be implemented in other schools to promote early exposure to programming and support the development of digital skills among young learners

Abstract

The low level of reading literacy in remote areas, such as the Muna Barat Daya Regency, poses a significant challenge in basic education. One innovation proposed to address this issue is the implementation of Scramble Fun Learning, an educational game-based approach designed to enhance reading literacy skills in students at SD Negeri 1Weet. This community service activity was carried out in two stages: a theoretical stage, which provided foundational understanding about the importance of literacy and gamification approaches, and a practical stage involving both teachers and fifth-grade students in word arrangement activities. Scramble Fun Learning combines game elements with a gamification approach by having students arrange words from random letters. The main objective is to train vocabulary recognition, strengthen reading comprehension, and increase student motivation to learn. In this activity, students are challenged to form words or sentences within a limited time, which not only stimulates their creativity but also makes the learning process more enjoyable and engaging. This method enables students to learn while playing, which is particularly effective in overcoming the boredom that often occurs in conventional learning. The results of this activity showed a significant improvement in student enthusiasm, active participation, and literacy skills. Many students who were previously disinterested in reading activities became more enthusiastic and motivated. Despite limitations in resources and time, the activity was still effectively implemented, thanks to creative adjustments made by the implementing team to ensure the material and activities were well received by both students and teachers. Overall, these findings indicate that Scramble Fun Learning is a highly potential and applicable approach to improving students' reading literacy, especially in areas with limited educational resources. This approach not only enhances literacy skills but also builds students' interest and motivation to continue learning.

Abstract

Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) have long been recognized as a vital driver of economic growth, particularly in rural areas where access to large-scale industries is limited. In Dahu Village, the community relies on local products such as melinjo as one of the main sources of livelihood. However, despite the potential of melinjo-based products, business development has been constrained by limited innovation, low product diversification, and weak marketing strategies. These challenges hinder the competitiveness of local SMEs in wider markets, especially in appealing to younger consumers who often prefer modern and innovative products. To address these challenges, the 2025 Student Work Study Program (KKM) conducted by the University of Bina Bangsa implemented a community empowerment project aimed at enhancing the capacity of SMEs in the melinjo sector. The program introduced the development of an innovative product, namely chocolate-flavored keceprek, a melinjo-based snack with a unique taste and higher market value. The initiative not only focused on product innovation but also provided comprehensive support in production techniques, hygienic and attractive packaging, logo and banner design, as well as digital marketing strategies tailored to rural entrepreneurs. The results of the activity highlight that even a relatively simple innovation can significantly increase product appeal, improve branding, and create new market opportunities. Early feedback indicated that chocolate-flavored keceprek products successfully attracted interest from younger consumers, demonstrating the importance of innovation in maintaining the relevance of traditional products. Furthermore, the project functioned as a collaborative platform where students and local communities worked together in applying entrepreneurial concepts to local potential. This synergy not only contributed to improving the competitiveness of SMEs in Dahu Village but also encouraged sustainable economic development in rural areas through innovation, creativity, and digital-based marketing.

Abstract

The socialization of environmental ethics and environmental health awareness in children is a strategic step in forming a generation that cares, is responsible, and oriented towards the sustainability of natural resources. Children, as a growing age group, have great potential to internalize environmental values and apply them consistently into adulthood. This socialization activity was carried out in the elementary school environment with an interactive lecture and group discussion approach, designed to encourage active participation and deep understanding. The main goal of the activity is to increase children's environmental literacy, including understanding the importance of maintaining cleanliness, managing waste, avoiding pollution, and maintaining the health of the surrounding environment. The results of the evaluation showed a significant increase in students' knowledge about environmental and health issues, as well as a positive attitude towards environmentally friendly practices. Students show high enthusiasm during the activity, which is reflected in active involvement in discussions and commitment to implementing behaviors that support environmental sustainability. This socialization has proven to be effective in fostering environmental awareness and ethics from an early age, which is an important foundation for sustainable development. By equipping children with environmental knowledge and values, it is hoped that they can become agents of change in their respective communities. This kind of activity needs to be carried out continuously and integrated into the basic education curriculum, so that the impact can be wider and more sustainable. School-based socialization is a relevant and strategic approach in shaping a culture of environmental care in the future.
