Natural resource management in Paccellekang Village, which includes rice paddies, plantations, and teak trees, remains suboptimal despite its significant potential, particularly the abundant wood waste. This wood waste largely originates from agricultural activities, plantations, and small-scale wood processing. Currently, this waste is often simply burned or dumped, potentially polluting the environment and causing air pollution. However, if managed properly, wood waste can be transformed into high-value products that can provide financial benefits to the community. This community service activity aims to empower farmer groups through training in processing wood waste into marketable products such as charcoal, liquid smoke, and wood flour. These products not only have economic value but are also useful in various sectors, for example, liquid smoke as a natural preservative, charcoal as an environmentally friendly fuel, and wood flour as an industrial raw material. The program implementation method uses a structured approach that includes initial observations to identify potential partners and needs, outreach to provide a comprehensive understanding of the program's objectives, and training in wood waste processing technology. Furthermore, intensive mentoring and evaluation of implementation results are provided to ensure program sustainability. The results demonstrated that the farmer group members understood the concept of productive wood waste management and demonstrated high enthusiasm for developing innovative products. This program successfully improved the community's skills in utilizing local resources while reducing the negative impact of waste on the environment. Thus, this activity contributed to increasing community income and supporting sustainable economic development in Paccellekang Village.

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.

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 objective of this mentoring activity is to increase the capacity of swimming pool managers, particularly in strengthening management and sustainable management strategies. With this increased capacity, it is hoped that Tirta Arum Swimming Pool can develop into a valuable village asset, both economically and socially. The swimming pool will not only provide a source of income for the village but also serve as a means of recreation, education, and social interaction for the surrounding community.

This approach is implemented through structured mentoring, education, and training activities. Direct community involvement aims to foster a sense of ownership and responsibility for swimming pool management. In addition, with training tailored to local needs, managers are expected to be able to apply effective management principles, from planning and financial management to customer service and promotional strategies. Thus, the results of this activity are not only temporary improvements, but also long-term empowerment that contributes to the independence and business aspirations of the Village-Owned Enterprise (BUMDes). Through the PRA method, this activity not only provides an immediate solution to swimming pool management problems but also increases the independence of the community and managers in developing and operating the business sustainably. This increased community participation is expected to foster a sense of ownership (a sense of belonging) towards the swimming pool as a shared property.

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.
