In the learning process, educators often face challenges in helping students achieve optimal learning outcomes. One of the contributing factors is the dominance of teacher-centered learning models, which frequently leads to low student engagement and reduced motivation. This condition affects students’ curiosity, particularly in Science learning, which requires active participation and exploration. Therefore, innovative teaching materials are needed to encourage student involvement while simultaneously stimulating their curiosity. One alternative that can be utilized is the Student Worksheet (Lembar Kerja Peserta Didik/LKPD), which can be designed systematically and contextually to support active learning. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of using LKPD in enhancing students’ curiosity in Grade VII Science learning at SMPN 1 Sanrobone. The research employed a Classroom Action Research (CAR) approach carried out in two cycles, each consisting of planning, implementation, observation, and reflection stages. The findings indicate a significant increase in students’ curiosity after the implementation of LKPD, as shown by improvements in questioning behavior, interest in the material, and the ability to observe and explore scientific phenomena. Based on these results, it can be concluded that the use of LKPD is effective in fostering students’ curiosity and contributes to a more interactive and meaningful Science learning experience.

This community service program focuses on training teachers at SMKN 1 Malingping in developing formative assessment instruments using the Quizizz and Wordwall platforms. The main objective is to enhance teachers’ competencies in integrating technology into classroom assessment practices, thereby improving the quality of teaching and learning. Formative assessment plays a crucial role in the learning process as it allows teachers to continuously monitor student progress, identify learning gaps, and provide timely feedback that supports both remediation and enrichment. By mastering digital tools such as Quizizz and Wordwall, teachers can design engaging, interactive, and effective assessment activities that align with curriculum objectives while also increasing student motivation and participation. The training was conducted through a workshop model, combining theoretical sessions on formative assessment principles with hands-on practice in creating and implementing online quizzes, interactive games, and customized learning activities. Teachers were guided step-by-step in account creation, content development, and analyzing assessment results for instructional decision-making. Feedback sessions were also integrated to address challenges and share best practices. The results of the training indicated a significant improvement in teachers’ skills and confidence in utilizing Quizizz and Wordwall for formative assessment. Participants demonstrated the ability to design varied assessment formats, adapt content to students’ needs, and effectively interpret assessment data to inform teaching strategies. Moreover, teachers reported increased student engagement when these platforms were implemented in classroom settings. This program highlights the importance of equipping educators with digital literacy skills that are relevant to 21st-century learning demands. The integration of Quizizz and Wordwall not only streamlines the assessment process but also fosters a more dynamic and student-centered learning environment. The experience from SMKN 1 Malingping suggests that similar training initiatives can be replicated in other schools to promote effective, technology-based formative assessment practices.

The video feature Berdaya, Berkarya, Bermakna bagi Disabilitas aims to highlight the potential and creative works of children with disabilities at the Our Dream Indonesia Foundation through a mise-en-scène approach that enhances both visual and emotional narratives. This writing is motivated by the urgency of promoting the economic and social empowerment of persons with disabilities and the need to challenge prevailing stigmas through mass media. The 11-minute video feature integrates cinematography, set design, costume and makeup, and lighting to construct an engaging and informative storytelling experience. The objective of this study is to explain the production process of creating a visual work using mise-en-scène elements, which includes three key stages: pre-production (research, field observation, storyline development, storyboard creation, and technical preparation), production (filming using cinematographic techniques), and post-production (editing and visual refinement). The findings indicate that the comprehensive application of mise-en-scène successfully reinforces the message of inclusivity. For example, the use of cinematographic techniques contributes to the visual aesthetics; the set design of Toko Amis Budi shows the works of children with disabilities; the makeup and costume choices reflect the personalities of the featured subjects; and the lighting enhances the emotional tone of each scene. In conclusion, this work affirms that mise-en-scène not only enriches the visual appeal but also deepens the emotional impact, transforming facts into inspiring stories and raising public awareness of the importance of expressive spaces for individuals with disabilities. This video serves as an effective medium to advocate for equal rights and the recognition of the abilities of persons with disabilities.

This community service activity was carried out to improve the psychosocial capacity of Indonesian Migrant Workers (PMI) in Taiwan through online education that focuses on work stress management, adaptability, and achievement motivation. The activity was carried out in collaboration with the GANAS Community Taiwan and was attended by 35 participants who are members of the community. The implementation was carried out online using Zoom Meeting, with three webinar sessions, each discussing one main topic. Evaluation was carried out to measure the increase in participants' understanding of the material presented. The results of the activity showed a fairly good increase in understanding for the topics of stress management, work adaptation, and achievement motivation. Participants also provided positive feedback on the delivery method and the relevance of the material to the situations they experienced. This activity shows that a webinar-based educational approach can be an effective strategy in increasing PMI's knowledge and awareness of the psychosocial issues they face in the country of placement. Follow-up in the form of similar activities periodically is needed to strengthen the impact and reach more migrant worker communities in the future.

Stunting is a physical growth problem that causes children to not be able to grow as they should and causes a linear decrease in growth rate. One of the causes of stunting in Bungkuk Village is the upbringing and eating pattern taught by parents to their toddlers. In this study, we use an Asset Based Community Development (ABCD) strategy to show how changes in knowledge about stunting are influenced by health education. In conclusion, efforts to prevent and treat stunting in the community will include good knowledge as a provision. This community service approach using the ABCD method can increase public awareness about stunting. Supported by guidance and assistance provided by village health post midwives and posyandu cadres to ensure that anyone who may experience symptoms that result in stunting is immediately treated. The need for awareness and parental participation in preventing this is proven by the decline in the effectiveness of the stunting prevention work program and knowledge in Bungkuk Village.
