The method used in this activity was health education through interactive lectures and discussions, accompanied by a pre-test and post-test evaluation using questionnaires. The materials provided included the definition of ARI, risk factors, and the implementation of CHLB such as proper handwashing, personal hygiene maintenance, and correct coughing and sneezing etiquette. The results showed an increase in students’ knowledge after the educational session, with the average score rising from 78% to 88%, indicating an improvement of 10%. This demonstrates that the educational method used was effective in improving students’ understanding of ARI prevention. This activity is expected to foster clean and healthy habits among elementary school students and support promotive and preventive health efforts in the school environment.

Community service with the theme of Expired Date (ED) and Beyond Use Date (BUD) aims to improve knowledge and understanding of proper medication storage as an effort to enhance the health of the Gagak Sipat community. Knowledge about medication usage limits and checking product expiration dates educates the public to be more cautious and to avoid health risks that may arise from consuming products that have exceeded their usage period or have expired. The use of medicines beyond their ED and BUD indicates that the drugs may have experienced reduced stability related to storage conditions. Decreased stability of pharmaceutical preparations can affect their physical quality, which in turn impacts the effectiveness and safety of the medication. The educational method used in this program included lectures accompanied by the distribution of leaflets, followed by practical simulations on checking ED and calculating BUD for various dosage forms. The results of this educational activity showed that community members were able to determine the ED and BUD for several pharmaceutical preparations such as tablets, powders, capsules, syrups, eye drops, ear drops, and others. The community in Gagak Sipat village gained an understanding of the risks associated with using medications beyond the BUD, including reduced effectiveness, the risk of microbial contamination, and potentially harmful chemical reactions. It was emphasized that some medications that are expired or used beyond their BUD can pose more serious health risks, especially when used to treat severe diseases.

The ability to analyze ethical and health law issues is one of the learning outcomes that must be mastered by students of the Public Health Study Program. Over the past two years, the implementation of lectures has been predominantly based on problem-based learning; however, most student learning outcomes have remained in the “not yet achieved” category, including in completing assignments related to ethical and health law problem solving. This study aims to compare students’ problem-solving abilities between the implementation of project-based learning and problem-based learning. The research was conducted in the Public Health Study Program at Universitas Jambi involving first-semester students enrolled in the Ethics and Health Law course. The research employed a quasi-experimental design involving 200 students, with 100 students assigned to the experimental group and 100 students to the control group. The instruments used were assessment sheets and observation sheets. Data collection was carried out twice, before and after the implementation of the two learning models. Data processing and analysis were conducted using an independent t-test.The results of the study indicate an improvement in students’ problem-solving abilities through the implementation of project-based learning. Project-based learning contributes to strengthening students’ perseverance and problem-solving skills and is therefore recommended for implementation in all courses at higher education institutions.

Adolescents are a vulnerable group to digital sexual violence, including sextortion, which involves sexual extortion through threats to distribute sexually explicit content. Low levels of self-control may increase adolescents’ vulnerability to such risks. This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of psychoeducation in enhancing self-control understanding as a preventive effort against sextortion among adolescents. A quantitative approach with a pre-experimental one-group pre-test–post-test design was employed. The participants consisted of 36 students aged 15–17 years from a public senior high school in Samarinda. The psychoeducational intervention was delivered through interactive lectures, Focus Group Discussions (FGD), and educational video screenings. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test. The results of the analysis showed a statistically significant difference (Z = −2.201; p = 0.028 (p < 0.05)). This indicates that there was a difference in adolescents’ self-control before and after the psychoeducation intervention. The post-test mean score (M = 8.39) was higher than the pre-test mean score (M = 8.00). These findings suggest that psychoeducation was effective in improving adolescents’ understanding of self-control as a preventive effort against sextortion. Self-control psychoeducation can therefore be considered a relevant preventive approach to be implemented in school settings.
