Biotechnology is one of the concepts taught in science learning which is complex and dynamic and has a relationship between the application of science and technology. The application of biotechnology is very beneficial in various aspects of life. The importance of applying biotechnology in life encourages schools to provide learning platforms for students to learn about biotechnology processing properly. However there are still issues with biotechnology processing at partner schools. Specifically, they still don't know how to properly create basic biotechnology learning supplements or process biotechnology products. This inspired the UNNES Postgraduate School service team to assist with training in the creation of basic biotechnology goods at the Al-Hidayah Waqaf Foundation in Hatyai, Thailand, as an addition to instructional resources. This training aims to provide training in making simple biotechnology products so that they can improve educators' skills in packaging supplements for simple biotechnology teaching materials as well as identifying the benefits of apple and pineapple vinegar as well as training skills in making apple and pineapple vinegar correctly. The training method was implemented by providing tools and materials, presenting the material, and providing assistance in the practice of making apple and pineapple vinegar biotechnology. The training has been carried out well. The results of the training can help teachers prepare science learning that is contextual and has an entrepreneurial spirit.

Research skills need to be possessed by students in the era of educational revolution 4.0 and society 5.0. The efforts that have been made to apply a scientific approach still have not maximized research skills for students. An independent curriculum with a new learning paradigm enables the achievement of student research skills and a research culture in schools can be realized. These skills should also be possessed by Indonesian students in other countries, including those at the Indonesian School of Davao (SID)-Philippines. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out dissemination regarding learning that can foster a research culture, through activities carried out together with teachers at SID. This step is a form of educational reform that can help teachers prepare their students to compete at the global level. A research culture can be realized through the application of the Differentiate Indirect Learning (Dif-In-Le) learning model with a Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) approach. The agreed activity plan is training. However, because there was a restructuring of school principals, the activity was changed to a brainstorming with the Indonesian Consulate General in Davao attended by Filipino SID teachers. The aim of this service activity is to identify the needs of SID teachers regarding innovative learning. An innovative learning model was introduced that can foster a research culture for students and schools, namely Dif-In-Le STEM approach. As a result of identifying needs, it was found that an introduction to Indonesian culture was needed for Indonesian children living in Davao, Philippines.

Tugu Village in Demak Regency frequently experiences disasters such as coastal erosion and inundation due to tidal activities and the reclamation of Marina Beach in Semarang, which borders Sayung District. These conditions negatively impact the local economy, necessitating a solution to enhance food self-sufficiency. One approach taken is the cultivation of catfish in barrels (budikdamber) using an aquaponic system to grow water spinach, supported by the Internet of Things (IoT). The target audience for this community service activity is the women in Tugu Village affected by flooding. The program was implemented in five stages: observation and coordination, socialization, training, technology application, mentoring, and evaluation. Evaluation was conducted using pre-test and post-test instruments. Before the program, participants' understanding of aquaponic budikdamber was only 32.5%, but after the program, it increased sharply to 95%. Participants' understanding of pellet-making also saw a significant increase, from 10% before the program to 90% afterward. This data indicates that the program implementation successfully improved participants' understanding.
