Abstract

The rapid development of digital technology has accelerated the transformation of banking services, including Islamic banking through the provision of mobile banking services. However, the utilization of Islamic mobile banking services among the community still faces several challenges, including limited digital literacy, inadequate understanding of service features, and low awareness of digital transaction security. This community service program aimed to enhance participants’ knowledge and skills in using Islamic mobile banking services to support digital financial transactions. The program was implemented through several stages, including preparation, educational sessions, demonstrations, hands-on practice, interactive discussions, and evaluation. The training materials covered the introduction of Islamic mobile banking services, digital transaction features, QRIS utilization, and digital transaction security awareness. The results indicated an improvement in participants’ understanding of Islamic mobile banking services, the benefits of digital financial transactions, and the importance of protecting personal data and banking accounts. Furthermore, participants demonstrated better practical skills in operating various mobile banking features independently. This program contributed to strengthening Islamic digital financial literacy and promoting the effective, secure, and sustainable use of digital banking services within the community.

Abstract

Sharia financial literacy is a crucial aspect in developing healthy financial behavior in accordance with Islamic values. However, the level of public and student understanding of the concept of saving and transactions based on Sharia principles still needs to be improved. This community service activity aims to increase the knowledge, understanding, and awareness of students and the community regarding the importance of saving and transactions in accordance with Sharia principles. The activity was implemented through a participatory approach, encompassing preparation, educational outreach, interactive discussions, practical simulations, evaluation, and follow-up. The material presented covered the basic concepts of Sharia banking, the importance of saving, Sharia savings products, and the application of Sharia principles in daily financial transactions. The results of the activity showed an increase in participants' understanding of the differences between Sharia and conventional banks, the concept of profit-sharing, and the importance of avoiding transactions containing elements of riba, gharar, and maysir. Furthermore, participants demonstrated high enthusiasm throughout the activity and were more motivated to adopt savings habits and use Sharia financial services. This activity makes a positive contribution to increasing Islamic financial literacy and inclusion and encourages wiser, more responsible financial behavior that aligns with Islamic principles.

Abstract

The 3MY Group Community Service Program (KKN) was conducted at Kedai MasGit in Tigaraksa District, Tangerang Regency, as an effort to support the digitalization of service systems for micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs). Problems faced by partners included limited access to menu information, an unstructured ordering process, and the use of a manual service system that could potentially lead to miscommunication and reduce service efficiency. The program involved observation, interviews, SWOT analysis, solution design, implementation, and evaluation. The solution developed included a website landing page integrated with a digital menu, reservation service, and direct access to WhatsApp, along with visuals explaining the ordering process to customers. Implementation results demonstrated that the digital system improved access to information, clarified the ordering process, and supported service efficiency, especially as customer numbers increased. This program contributed to improving service quality and was a strategic step in supporting the digital transformation and operational sustainability of Kedai MasGit.

Abstract

The rapid development of the digital economy has increased young people's involvement in various economic activities. However, this development has not been fully accompanied by adequate understanding of Islamic economic values. The low level of Islamic financial and economic literacy may lead students to make economic decisions without considering ethical aspects and Islamic principles. This community service program aimed to improve students’ understanding of Islamic economic values and encourage the development of economic behavior that aligns with Sharia principles. The program was conducted at SMA IT Al Utsaimin Bangkinang and involved 48 tenth-grade students. The methods employed included presentations, discussions, question-and-answer sessions, and case-based learning related to students’ daily experiences. The materials covered Islamic economic values, lawful wealth acquisition, consumption and distribution according to Sharia principles, Islamic financial planning, the implementation of Islamic economics in daily life, and the development of Islamic banking in Indonesia. The results indicated that participants actively engaged in the program and gained a better understanding of Islamic economic principles, particularly regarding electronic money, digital transactions, and personal financial management. The activity also enhanced students’ awareness of the importance of honesty, fairness, transparency, and responsibility in economic activities. Therefore, this community service program contributed to strengthening Islamic economic literacy and supporting the development of a young generation that is knowledgeable, ethical, and responsible in responding to the challenges of the modern economy.

Abstract

Low reading interest and literacy skills among senior high school students are often accompanied by limited awareness of Clean and Healthy Living Behavior (Perilaku Hidup Bersih dan Sehat/PHBS) in the school environment. This community service activity aimed to strengthen Indonesian language literacy among students of SMA Swasta Advent Kabanjahe through a PHBS education approach integrated with reading activities and inspirational story-writing training. The program combined lectures, interactive discussions, structured literacy activities, and creative writing workshops involving tenth-grade students. A one-group pre-test–post-test design was employed to evaluate changes in students' PHBS knowledge, complemented by content analysis of their written works. The findings demonstrated a substantial improvement in students' understanding of PHBS following the intervention, accompanied by a marked reduction in the proportion of students with low levels of knowledge. In addition, the program resulted in a collection of inspirational stories reflecting students' understanding and internalization of PHBS values. These findings suggest that integrating literacy development with health education provides an effective and engaging learning strategy that can be replicated in other schools while supporting the implementation of the School Literacy Movement (Gerakan Literasi Sekolah/GLS) and school-based health promotion programs.

Abstract

Academic literacy has become one of the essential competencies that higher education students must possess to support research activities and scientific publication. However, many students continue to encounter challenges in identifying research ideas, formulating research gaps, conducting literature reviews, organizing scientific manuscripts, and utilizing reference management applications. This community service program aimed to strengthen students' academic literacy and academic writing competencies through an online literacy class. The activity was conducted using a training and mentoring approach through Zoom Meeting, involving students from Universitas Patompo as participants. The program consisted of interactive lectures, demonstrations, discussions, question-and-answer sessions, and practical exercises covering research idea exploration, research gap identification, literature searching, IMRAD-based article writing, reference management using Mendeley, and publication strategies. The implementation demonstrated high participant engagement, as reflected by active discussions and questions throughout the webinar. Participants showed improved understanding of scientific writing principles, research planning, literature synthesis, and reference management. The online learning approach also facilitated flexible interaction between presenters and participants while promoting collaborative learning. Overall, the program successfully enhanced participants' academic literacy, academic writing skills, and confidence in preparing scientific manuscripts. This activity indicates that online literacy training can serve as an effective strategy for strengthening students' research capacity and fostering a sustainable culture of scientific writing in higher education.

Abstract

The National Health Insurance (JKN) program administered by BPJS Kesehatan aims to provide comprehensive health protection for all Indonesian citizens; however, its implementation still faces low participant understanding of service procedures and patient rights, particularly among families of inpatients. This community service activity aimed to improve the knowledge of inpatients' families at Karo Regency General Hospital regarding the BPJS Kesehatan service flow and patient rights. The activity was conducted on 13 April 2026 in the hospital auditorium using a participatory health education approach comprising interactive lectures, question-and-answer sessions, and educational leaflets, involving 30 families of inpatients. Effectiveness was evaluated through pre-test and post-test using a validated 20-item questionnaire (r > 0.3; Cronbach's alpha = 0.82). Results showed a significant increase in knowledge, with the proportion of participants in the good category rising from 20.0% to 76.7%, and the mean score increasing from 47.8 ± 12.1 to 79.2 ± 9.4 (p < 0.001, Wilcoxon signed rank test). The largest gains occurred in the domains of service flow/referral system and inpatient administrative procedures (+50.0% each). These findings confirm that participatory health education effectively improves patient families' literacy regarding the JKN system and patient rights, and is recommended for routine, sustained implementation in hospitals
