Abstract

This Community Service Program aims to develop a character-based thematic English module and assessment to enhance the quality of English learning at SD Al Hikmah Semarang. The subjects involved in this program include English teachers and Grade 6 students who participated in the implementation and evaluation stages. The program employed several steps: needs analysis, module and assessment design, expert validation, revision, and limited classroom implementation. Qualitative data were collected through observations, interviews, and field notes. The results indicate that the developed thematic module is contextually relevant, engaging for students, and effective in supporting more communicative and meaningful English learning. The character-based assessment also enables teachers to monitor students’ behavioral development and language skills more systematically. Overall, this program concludes that the character-based thematic module and assessment are feasible to be used as supporting learning materials in primary school English education.

Abstract

Pemanfaatan media sosial di kalangan mahasiswa saat ini sangat tinggi, namun tidak diimbangi dengan pemahaman etika digital yang memadai. Banyaknya kasus perundungan siber, penyebaran hoaks, dan pelanggaran UU ITE menunjukkan urgensi penguatan literasi digital. Kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk membangun kesadaran kritis dan membekali mahasiswa dengan etika bermedia sosial yang sehat. Metode yang digunakan adalah pendekatan partisipatif aktif melalui penyuluhan interaktif, yang meliputi ceramah komunikatif, diskusi interaktif, serta bedah kasus riil mengenai rekam jejak digital dan aspek hukum siber. Sasaran kegiatan ini adalah 120 mahasiswa di lingkungan universitas. Evaluasi keberhasilan program diukur menggunakan instrumen pre-test dan post-test yang mencakup empat pilar literasi digital. Hasil pengabdian menunjukkan adanya peningkatan pemahaman peserta yang sangat signifikan. Nilai rata-rata akumulatif peserta melonjak sebesar 31,65%, dari nilai awal (pre-test) 55,35% menjadi 87,0% pada evaluasi akhir (post-test). Peningkatan tertinggi terjadi pada pilar keamanan digital (digital safety) dan etika digital (digital ethics). Sebagai keberlanjutan program, dibentuk gerakan Cyber-Ambassador sebagai pelopor kampanye medsos sehat di kampus. Kesimpulannya, penyuluhan ini efektif dalam mereformasi pola pikir mahasiswa menjadi pengguna ruang siber yang bijak, kritis, dan bertanggung jawab.

Abstract

The increasing amount of plastic waste is an environmental challenge that requires sustainable management because it can cause pollution and disrupt the balance of the ecosystem. One type of plastic waste commonly found in the environment is plastic bottle caps, which are generally not optimally utilized. This article aims to describe the implementation of a program to utilize plastic bottle cap waste through Do It Yourself (DIY Crafting) activities as an effort to increase environmental awareness. The program implementation method includes the stages of collecting and sorting plastic bottle caps, providing education on waste management based on the principles of Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle (3R), craft-making training, and evaluation of the results of the activity. The results of the implementation show that plastic bottle cap waste can be processed into various craft products that have functional and aesthetic value, such as wall decorations, photo frames, key chains, and pencil cases. In addition to contributing to reducing the volume of plastic waste, this activity also increases participants' knowledge, creativity, skills, and awareness of the importance of responsible environmental management. This program also has a social impact by increasing community participation and has the potential to provide economic value through the development of recycled-based craft products. Thus, the utilization of plastic bottle caps through DIY Crafting activities is an effective alternative in supporting waste management, community empowerment, and sustainable environmental conservation.

Abstract

ABSTRACT Domestic violence (DV) remains a persistent social and legal issue in Mandailing Natal Regency, Indonesia, where limited legal literacy and socio-cultural perceptions often hinder prevention efforts and discourage victims from seeking assistance. This community service program aimed to enhance community legal literacy, strengthen Islamic da'wah values in preventing domestic violence, and develop a sustainable community-based prevention mechanism in Panyabungan District. The program adopted a participatory approach through legal education sessions, Focus Group Discussions (FGDs), case-based learning, and community mentoring involving 85 participants, including housewives, religious leaders, community leaders, village officials, and young women. Program effectiveness was evaluated using pre- and post-intervention assessments, participant observations, and discussion outcomes. The results indicated a 73% increase in participants' understanding of Law No. 23 of 2004 concerning the Elimination of Domestic Violence, a 68% improvement in their ability to identify early indicators of domestic violence, and the successful establishment of a Community-Based Domestic Violence Prevention Task Force. The integration of legal education with Islamic da'wah values also fostered a shift in community perceptions, recognizing domestic violence not merely as a private family matter but as a public social issue requiring collective responsibility and intervention. This integrated legal–religious empowerment model demonstrates the potential for strengthening community participation, improving legal awareness, and establishing sustainable domestic violence prevention mechanisms in rural communities.

Abstract

This Community Service (PKM) activity aimed to enhance public understanding of Fiqh of Ramadan as an integral part of Islamic law and to improve the quality of worship through educational outreach delivered online via the Zoom Meeting platform. The PKM employed the Participatory Action Research (PAR) method with an educational-participatory approach that actively involved participants throughout all stages of the program, including needs assessment, interactive educational sessions, discussion and question-and-answer activities, and evaluation of participants' understanding through Google Forms-based pretests and posttests. The educational media utilized included visual presentations, infographics, and short videos explaining various aspects of Ramadan fiqh, such as fasting regulations, recommended acts of worship, zakat al-fitr, and contemporary fiqh issues frequently encountered by the community. The program was attended by 65 participants from diverse age groups and professional backgrounds. The evaluation results indicated a significant improvement in participants' average understanding scores, increasing from 64.3 in the pretest to 88.7 in the posttest. In addition to cognitive improvement, participants demonstrated a high level of engagement during the discussion sessions, as reflected in their enhanced ability to identify and resolve Ramadan fiqh issues based on authentic sources of Islamic law. The findings demonstrate that educational outreach through Zoom-based learning media is an effective alternative for implementing community service programs, as it can reach participants regardless of geographical limitations, foster interactive learning, and strengthen public religious literacy. Therefore, this online educational outreach model is recommended as an adaptive community engagement strategy that aligns with advances in information technology while supporting the improvement of the quality of worship within the community.
