Abstract

This community service activity aims to improve the community’s knowledge and skills in making natural-ingredient massage oils as both an alternative health product and a business opportunity. The program was implemented in Bingkat Village, Pegajahan Subdistrict, Serdang Bedagai Regency, with the primary target being housewives who are members of the PKK group. The main challenges faced by the community partners include high reliance on chemicalbased products, limited understanding of the use of medicinal plants, and a lack of productive activities that support family economies. Implementation methods included outreach sessions, training, hands-on practice, and guidance in making massage oil using natural ingredients such as lemongrass oil and nutmeg seed oil. In addition, participants were also provided with training in packaging, business management, and basic marketing. The results of the activities showed an increase in the community’s knowledge and skills in processing natural ingredients into massage oil products that are safe, effective, and economically valuable. This program is expected to promote community selfreliance and increase family income through the development of businesses based on local potential.

Abstract

This community service activity focused on waste management and composting in elementary schools. Daily activities in schools generate organic and inorganic waste, which, if not managed properly, can cause environmental pollution and increase the risk of health problems. Students' lack of knowledge and habits in sorting and processing waste is one of the contributing factors to this problem. Therefore, early environmental education is needed to foster caring and responsible behavior in waste management. Improving students' knowledge and skills in sorting waste and processing organic waste into compost is an effort to create a clean and environmentally friendly school environment. The activity was carried out over one day through counseling, interactive discussions, demonstrations, and hands-on practice of waste sorting and making simple compost using presentation media and real-world examples. Students demonstrated active and enthusiastic participation throughout the activity. There was an increase in understanding of the types of waste, the importance of proper waste management, and the stages of composting. Students were able to practice sorting organic and inorganic waste and understand the basic process of composting. This activity was effective in increasing students' knowledge, awareness, and skills related to waste management and composting. The combination of interactive outreach methods and hands-on practice contributes to fostering environmentally conscious behavior and supporting the creation of a clean, healthy, and sustainable school environment.

Abstract

A balanced diet is a daily dietary pattern that contains nutrients in types and amounts appropriate to the body's needs. Knowledge of balanced nutrition and healthy eating habits is an important factor in preventing nutritional problems among adolescents. A lack of understanding regarding appropriate food choices can lead to unhealthy eating behaviors. Therefore, nutrition education is needed to improve students’ knowledge and awareness of the importance of implementing a balanced diet in daily life. This counseling activity aimed to increase students’ knowledge regarding balanced dietary patterns. The activity was conducted on June 4, 2025, at State Junior High School 5 Kendari and involved 30 seventh-grade students as respondents. The counseling methods included lectures using PowerPoint media, an ice-breaking session in the form of the WHO six-step handwashing simulation, question-and-answer sessions, and interactive quizzes. Evaluation was carried out using pre-tests and post-tests to measure students’ knowledge levels before and after the counseling activity. The results showed an increase in the mean knowledge score from 68.40 in the pre-test to 89.67 in the post-test. The paired t-test analysis showed a Sig. (2-tailed) value of 0.000 (p < 0.05), indicating a significant difference between pre-test and post-test results. In addition, students gave positive responses to the counseling activity, stating that the material was interesting, easy to understand, and enjoyable. These findings indicate that balanced diet counseling was effective in improving students’ knowledge regarding the implementation of healthy eating habits in daily life.

Abstract

This community service article discusses the Student Creativity Program (PKM) Workshop for Informatics Management students of Politeknik Negeri Sriwijaya in 2026. The activity aimed to increase students’ capacity to design PKM ideas that are creative, logical, collaborative, and relevant to the problems of society and technology development. The method used a participatory workshop consisting of needs identification, material preparation, online implementation, discussion, idea clinic, and follow-up reflection. The workshop introduced the substance of PKM, proposal logic, theme selection, team collaboration, and the PKM-GFT scheme as a written futuristic idea that emphasizes visionary, realistic, solution-oriented, long-term, and broad-impact concepts. The results showed that students obtained a clearer understanding of PKM schemes, the characteristics of feasible ideas, and the importance of transforming simple observations into structured proposals. The activity also encouraged students to prepare ideas based on problems, novelty, benefits, and implementation logic. This workshop implies that continuous mentoring is needed to strengthen students’ proposal-writing skills, creativity, and competitiveness in PKM submission
