The community service employed a needs assessment, participatory training sessions, and evaluation using pre-test and post-test analyzed through N-Gain scores. The results show an N-Gain value of 0.79, categorized as high, with an effectiveness level of 78.89%. These findings indicate that basic sign language training is effective in improving participants’ understanding in supporting more inclusive multicultural educational practices. This activity highlights the importance of collaboration between higher educations, civil society organizations and disability communities in advancing the No One Left Behind principle within inclusive education initiatives.

This community service program aimed to improve students’ understanding and awareness of digital media ethics, particularly language politeness in social media communication. The activity was conducted at a junior high school in Islamic Boarding School Al Falah. The program was designed using participatory and interactive approaches, including lectures, group discussions, role-play simulations, and pre-test and post-test evaluations. The initial findings from the pre-test indicated that most students lacked adequate understanding of ethical digital communication and tended to perceive social media as a free space without rules. After the training, the post-test results showed a significant improvement in students’ comprehension of responsible and polite communication practices in digital environments. Students demonstrated better awareness of the impacts of hate speech, cyberbullying, and misinformation. They were also able to propose constructive and ethical responses to various social media scenarios. The activity resulted in increased digital awareness, positive behavioral changes, and personal commitments from students to promote respectful communication online. This program contributes to strengthening digital literacy and character education among adolescents in rural areas.

This community engagement program was initiated in response to the predominance of academically oriented perceptions among parents regarding children’s intelligence, which tend to limit the recognition of children’s potential to cognitive achievement alone. The program aimed to enhance parents’ literacy and awareness of the Multiple Intelligences framework as a foundational basis for holistic child education in an Islamic elementary school context. A Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach was employed, encompassing participatory planning, conceptual socialization sessions, child potential mapping workshops, collective reflection, and continuous evaluation. The findings highlight substantive outcomes. Parents experienced a significant paradigm shift in understanding the diversity of children’s intelligences, moving from a single-dimensional academic perspective toward a more comprehensive and appreciative view of individual potential. Parenting practices became more supportive, dialogical, and less comparative. In addition, a parents’ communication forum emerged as a new social institution within the school community, accompanied by the rise of local leadership that contributes to program sustainability. These results demonstrate that educational mentoring grounded in the Multiple Intelligences framework effectively promotes social transformation in Islamic elementary education through strengthened collaboration between school and family.

This community service activity aims to increase awareness and independence of elementary school students in maintaining hand hygiene through education on proper handwashing. The background to this activity stems from the low level of handwashing habits among school-age children, despite hand hygiene being a simple action that has a significant impact on preventing infectious diseases. Based on initial observations at Tamanbali 3 Public Elementary School, most students did not yet have the habit of washing their hands before eating or after playing, despite the availability of facilities. Therefore, a hand hygiene education program was implemented, designed to help students understand the importance of proper handwashing according to WHO guidelines. The activity methods included outreach through educational posters and videos, demonstrations of the seven steps of handwashing, mentoring in daily habits, and evaluation of behavioral changes. The results of the activity showed a significant improvement in students' hand hygiene behavior. Students began washing their hands independently before eating and after activities without being reminded by teachers. The school environment also became cleaner and healthier due to the growing awareness of personal hygiene among students. Teachers and the school are committed to continuing this habit as part of the daily classroom routine. This activity demonstrates that hand hygiene education delivered through interactive methods can shape character and hygiene habits from an early age.

MA Sakti Ngebel, a secondary education institution in Ngebel District, Ponorogo Regency, has excellent potential to develop more context-based chemistry learning. MA Sakti students have previously struggled to understand fundamental chemistry concepts, particularly in relating them to everyday phenomena. Students tend to memorize formulas without understanding the meanings and applications of the concepts. Therefore, an effort is needed to implement simple, applicable, and school-specific learning innovations. One relevant approach is the implementation of Fun Chemistry Learning based chemistry practicums. The purpose of this community service (PKM) activity is to strengthen the understanding of chemistry concepts at MA Sakti Ngebel Ponorogo through FCL-based chemistry practicums. The stages of this PKM activity are program socialization, training, implementation of FCL learning innovations, mentoring, evaluation, and program sustainability. The N-gain analysis of the pretest and posttest results indicates that the increase in students’ knowledge of chemistry concepts falls in the moderate range. The results of the overall satisfaction questionnaire showed that the lowest level of satisfaction was in the aspect of time management and events during the PKM activities (45% of students considered it very satisfactory), while the highest level of satisfaction was in the aspect of motivation to learn chemistry after the PKM activities and the effectiveness of the FCL training carried out (both of which 70% of students considered it very satisfactory).

The rapid development of urban areas has created significant challenges in mobility, particularly the increasing use of private motor vehicles, which contributes to traffic congestion, air pollution, greenhouse gas emissions, and a decline in the quality of urban life. Sustainable transportation emerges as a solution by emphasizing the balance between environmental, social, and economic aspects through the use of eco-friendly modes such as public transport, walking, and cycling. However, the adoption rate of these modes remains relatively low due to perceptions of convenience, car-oriented culture, and limited environmental awareness. This study aims to analyze the implementation of sustainable transportation education as a strategy to raise urban communities’ awareness of eco-friendly mobility. The research employs a qualitative approach with descriptive analysis based on literature studies. Findings indicate that the use of digital media, social campaigns, and community participation plays a crucial role in shaping positive attitudes, new social norms, and pro-environmental behavior. Effective education not only delivers information but also builds values, norms, and new habits that support sustainable mobility. Furthermore, multi-stakeholder collaboration among government, communities, and the private sector strengthens the effectiveness of educational programs. Evaluation results show that continuous education enhances transportation literacy, ecological awareness, and urban quality of life. Thus, the implementation of sustainable transportation education serves as a strategic foundation for transforming urban mobility toward a healthier, inclusive, and equitable transportation system.
