Hospitals, as institutions providing healthcare services, must maximize technological advancements. One such advancement is the use of SIMRS (Hospital Management Information System) in accordance with the Indonesian Minister of Health Regulation No. 82 of 2013. The use of SIMRS is predicted to enhance the hospital's efficiency, effectiveness, professionalism, performance, as well as access and services. Nurses' satisfaction in using SIMRS will impact the improvement of patient care quality. One method to evaluate user satisfaction with SIMRS is EUCS (End User Computing Satisfaction), developed by Doll and Torkzadeh, which consists of five dimensions: content, format, accuracy, ease of use, and timeliness. This study aims to determine the relationship between the application of the EUCS method and nurses' job satisfaction in the use of SIMRS at RSUD dr. Doris Sylvanus Palangka Raya. Methods: This research is correlational, employing a cross-sectional design. Respondents were selected using purposive sampling and the chi-square statistical test was used. The sample consisted of 175 inpatient nurses at RSUD dr. Doris Sylvanus Palangka Raya. Results: The chi-square statistical test showed a p-value = 0.000, or a significance level of p < 0.05, indicating that there is a relationship between the application of the EUCS method and nurses' job satisfaction in the use of SIMRS at RSUD dr. Doris Sylvanus Palangka Raya. Conclusion: Effectiveness and efficiency are the primary goals of SIMRS usage, which creates convenience and transparency, ultimately expected to enhance nurses' job satisfaction.

Background: Modern agriculture often relies on the use of pesticides to control pests and plant diseases. However, the use of this pesticide can have a negative impact on the environment, especially on the quality of soil and river water in agricultural areas. This research aims to investigate the impact of pesticide use on soil and river water quality, with a focus on the type of pesticide used, usage patterns, and its impact on the environment and human health. Method: The journal research method with the literature review method is an approach used to collect, broadcast and synthesize information from various relevant literature sources Results: The use of pesticides in agriculture has a significant impact on the environment and human health. Appropriate methods of using pesticides, such as the correct dose and application time, as well as sustainable agricultural approaches such as organic farming, can reduce the negative impacts of pesticides. Farmer education about the safe use of pesticides is also important. In addition, soil and water quality must be considered in agriculture to maintain soil fertility and air ecosystems. River protection and rehabilitation efforts are also needed to maintain good river water quality.

Language is an important skill that must be learned to be able to do daily activities and adapt to the environment. Visually impaired children are not exempt from this problem, considering that technology in this century is essential and everywhere due to its convenience to use and the usage of technology that simplifies activities. Activities that are being done include learning. It is important for individuals who will later interact and teach children who have visual impairments, to keep up with news about the effectiveness of learning, one of which is knowing the role of technology in language learning for visually impaired children. This article is made using the systematic literature review research method to find out the role of technology in language learning for visually impaired children, what technology can be used for language learning for visually impaired children, and its effectiveness in learning. The technology that has the ability to read PDF text, convert sounds in various languages, convert visual information into audio, and learn through audio greatly facilitates the learning of blind children, whether it is language learning or learning in general. Technology that facilitates blind learning has a good effect in general on the visually impaired children, such as the building of self-confidence for the visually impaired children due to the increased ability of the visually impaired children to learn to identify their environment, the ability to be independent, less dependence on others, and increased communication skills due to language learning that becomes more accessible.

Low motivation to learn is often a serious challenge in one's academic development. Excessive use of social media can have both positive and negative impacts on learning motivation, depending on the usage policy. This study aims to analyze the magnitude of the relationship between the use of social media and the motivation to learn mathematics of class VIII students of SMP Negeri 6 Percut Sei Tuan. This study uses a quantitative approach with a correlational method. The sample consisted of 58 grade VIII students who were given video supplements related to learning materials at school through TikTok before formal learning was carried out. Based on the data analysis used using the Spearman correlation, the correlation coefficient value is + 0.744, it can be seen that the motivation to learn mathematics with the use of social media has a unidirectional relationship. This shows that if there is an increase in the value of using social media in learning, the value of math learning motivation will also increase linearly. By treating relevant learning videos through TikTok social media before learning takes place, educators are able to create a more interesting and intimate learning experience to increase student motivation in learning mathematics.

This study analyzes the science learning process at Kalamullah Alquran and Multilingual School in Thailand. This study is a qualitative research employing methods of literature review, interviews, and observations. It was found that integrating Quranic teachings with science provides holistic understanding to students. The multilingual environment presents challenges in communication and understanding scientific concepts. Limitations in time and student numbers affect teaching methods, while low student engagement is due to lax rules on cellphone usage. The school's infrastructure is adequate, but projectors and science laboratories are limited. The low usage of laboratories is due to constraints in practical kits and time. Recommendations include better time management, stricter rules on cellphone usage, and increased utilization of facilities to enhance the effectiveness of science learning.

The usage of manual keys in door security has become obsolete due to the increasing risk of theft and loss of valuable items. Observations at the Dean’s Office of the Faculty of Engineering at Universitas Negeri Padang reveal the shortcomings of manual key systems, including the possibility of getting stuck, lost keys, and the inability to record access.

Kegiatan pengabdian ini dilaksanakan di Desa Mojopuro Wuryantoro Wonogiri Jawa Tengah. Desa tersebut merupakan desa petani, dimana penduduknya mengandalkan hidup dari hasil pertanian. Selain ditanami padi, desa ini juga memiliki tanaman sorgum yang secara rutin ditanam setiap tahunnya. Sebagian sorgum yang dipanen dijual dalam bentuk mentah dengan harga yang tidak terlalu tinggi. Mengubah sorgum menjadi kue kering dapat merubah kebiasaan petani yang hanya menjual sorgum dalam bentuk mentah. Dengan mengubah sorgum menjadi makanan lain yang lebih enak akan menggairahkan petani untuk mengolah sorgum lebih lanjut, minimalnya untuk dikonsumsi sendiri dan secara bertahap merubahnya menjadi kegiatan ekonomi yang dapat meningkatkan pendapatan petani.Pengabdian telah dilaksanakan pada bulan April 2017 yang lalu dan ternyata memberikan dampak pada petani khususnya kelompok Wanita Tani Rahayu Widodo yaitu berubahnya pengetahuan mereka terhadap komoditi sorghum dan perubahan keinginan mereka untuk memanfaatkan bahan baku sorghum menjadi makanan yang bernilai ekonomi tinggi.Kata kunci : sorgum, makanan tradisional, Mojopuro Wonogiri
