Abstract

The filling ingredient commonly used in sausage production is tapioca flour. One alternative to tapioca flour is durian seed flour. Durian seed flour can be used as a filling ingredient in processed chicken products because it contains 88.68% starch. The addition of durian seed flour is one alternative that can be used to increase sausage variety and improve sausage quality. The method used to solve the problem was an institutional approach, namely a process of continuous guidance and assistance throughout the activity. There were 20 participants involved in this activity, consisting of women from the Paraita Women Farmers Group (KWT). The assistance was focused on guiding and assisting the KWT women in applying the technology of processing livestock products in the form of sausages. The community service activity was carried out by conducting counseling, followed by training and mentoring for the women of KWT in Pulliwa Village, Bulo District, Polewali Mandar Regency. This activity provided information to KWT that sausage can be made not only with tapioca flour, but also with cheaper durian seed flour, thus opening up business opportunities to increase members' income. The community service activity through counseling, training, and mentoring for the women of the Paraita Women Farmers Group (KWT) in Pulliwa Village, Bulo District, Polewali Mandar Regency successfully increased the knowledge and skills of the participants in processing livestock products into sausage products with the innovation of adding durian seed flour as a filler.

Abstract

Limited access to healthcare facilities and low health literacy remains significant challenges, particularly on Hiri Island, North Maluku. SMP Negeri 10 Ternate City is one of the schools on Hiri Island equipped with a school health unit (UKS) room, yet it has not been utilized optimally. This community service initiative aimed to promote health independence among school members by providing education on Clean and Healthy Living Behavior (CHLB) and training in the use of basic medical tools. The methods included CHLB education for students and mentoring for teachers in the operation of sphygmomanometers and digital thermometers, which were also provided as support for the UKS facility. Evaluation was conducted through a pre-test and post-test using a questionnaire consisting of 10 true/false questions. The analysis revealed a significant improvement in students knowledge (p 0.05) regarding CHLB, with average scores increasing from 57.89 (pre-test) to 73.68 (post-test). Furthermore, students enthusiasm during the activities indicated that an interactive educational approach can foster awareness of the importance of healthy living habits. This program not only yielded short-term benefits but also paved the way for sustainability and replication in other schools.

Abstract

Ensuring a safe and health-promoting school environment requires adequate teacher competence in first aid management. However, limited teacher knowledge and practical skills in providing first aid remain a critical concern in many elementary schools. This community service initiative aimed to implement community nursing care through educational interventions and first aid demonstrations focusing on injury and choking management, thereby improving teachers knowledge and preparedness. The activity employed the community nursing process comprising assessment, diagnosis, planning, implementation, and evaluation. A windshield survey revealed frequent minor injuries among students, insufficient first aid facilities, the absence of a School Health Unit (UKS), and several environmental risk factors for injuries. Interviews with the principal and UKS instructor indicated that while injuries were common and choking incidents had occurred within the past six months, teachers had not previously received formal training or procedural guidance. The intervention included lectures and demonstrations delivered to three UKS instructor teachers, utilizing PowerPoint slides, leaflets, teaching aids, and guidebooks. Knowledge and skills were evaluated using pre-test and post-test instruments and an observation checklist. Results indicated a substantial increase in knowledge from 33.3% to 100%, with wound management skills rated as good (100%) and choking management skills rated as good in most participants (66.7%). In conclusion, educational and demonstrative interventions effectively enhanced teachers first aid competence. The program has potential for replication by schools, community health centers, and education authorities as a promotive and preventive strategy at the elementary school level.

Abstract

Background and Aim: Rapid advances in information technology have increased the spread of hoaxes in digital media, posing risks to students’ mental health. Limited literacy and numeracy skills often hinder students’ ability to distinguish factual information from manipulated content. This community service program aimed to establish a school-based journalism community as a preventive strategy to combat hoaxes and strengthen students’ critical information evaluation skills. Methods: The program involved Indonesian language teachers from the Senior High School Teachers’ Working Group (MGMP) in Banda Aceh and five student representatives from five different schools. Activities were conducted through four stages: preparation, implementation, evaluation, and dissemination. Literacy and numeracy training was provided, and participants’ understanding was assessed using pretest and posttest instruments. Data were analyzed descriptively through score comparisons, N-Gain calculations, and paired sample t-tests. Results: Participants’ understanding improved significantly after the training. The average score increased from 68.87 in the pretest to 81.33 in the posttest, with statistical analysis confirming a significant difference between the two scores. The program also produced an anthology of opinion and feature articles written by participants and successfully established a school journalism community as a platform for developing and publishing students’ journalistic works. Conclusion: The program effectively enhanced participants’ literacy, numeracy, and critical thinking skills. The establishment of a school journalism community provides a sustainable mechanism for promoting information literacy and preventing the spread of hoaxes that may negatively affect students’ mental health.

Abstract

Background and Aim: The Women Farmers Group “Arab Bersama Tani” manages vegetable farmland but faces challenges related to a manual watering system that is time-consuming, inefficient, and results in uneven water distribution. Before the program, only approximately 400 m² of farmland was actively cultivated. This community service program aimed to improve irrigation efficiency, expand cultivated farmland, and support the productivity of vegetable farming through the application of an appropriate sprinkler irrigation technology. Method: The program was conducted in Perumahan Arab Saudi, Gampong Miruek Lam Reudeup, Baitussalam District, Aceh Besar Regency, Aceh, Indonesia. A participatory approach was implemented through field observation, group discussions, sprinkler irrigation system design, technical training, technology installation, operational assistance, and product identity strengthening through packaging label design. The irrigation system consisted of a water storage tank, pump, PVC pipe network, shut-off valves, and modified sprinklers adapted to the partner’s farmland conditions. Results: The application of the sprinkler irrigation system reduced daily watering time from approximately 4 hours to 30 minutes. The actively cultivated farmland area increased from approximately 400 m² to 800 m², while water distribution became more uniform. The group members were also able to operate and maintain the irrigation system independently. In addition, packaging featuring the “Arab Bersama Tani” logo was developed to strengthen product identity and support vegetable product marketing. Conclusion: The application of a simple sprinkler irrigation system effectively improved watering efficiency, expanded the actively cultivated area, and strengthened the technical capacity of the Women Farmers Group. The technology provides a practical and appropriate solution for supporting more efficient, productive, and sustainable community-based vegetable farming.
