The change of the curriculum to the Independent Curriculum made the National Exam (UN) officially change to the Minimum Competency Assessment (AKM). The evaluation carried out in the National Assessment consisted of reasoning ability using language (literacy), reasoning ability using mathematics (numeracy), and strengthening character education. Despite the lack of significant improvement in Indonesia's literacy, numeracy, and science skills rankings over the past 18 years, the country consistently ranks in the bottom 10 in PISA test results. Facing the current Independent curriculum, teachers must be able to teach based on literacy and numeracy skills, because this is the indicator in AKM and PISA-based assessments. If teachers master literacy and numeracy skills, then teachers can convey materials related to literacy and numeracy clearly and correctly for students. Teachers are expected to innovate to develop student competencies through various lessons through student-centred teaching. This Community Service is a community partnership program in collaboration with SMKN 3 Lhokseumawe. Service activities are by providing material on literacy and numeracy-based learning. During the service program, teachers are given knowledge about literacy and numeracy, the form of questions, and the number of percentages of questions in the AKM, which are useful for strengthening teachers' literacy and numeracy.

The development of information technology has encouraged various educational institutions to switch from manual systems to more efficient and integrated digital systems. One important activity in school management is the process of scheduling teachers' lessons, which often takes a long time and has the potential to cause scheduling conflicts when done manually. Common problems that often arise include conflicts between teachers' teaching hours, incompatibility of classroom availability, and difficulties in adjusting schedules to teachers' preferences. Therefore, this study aims to design and develop a web-based teacher scheduling information system by applying the Greedy algorithm method as a solution to optimize automatic schedule compilation. This system was developed using the PHP programming language and MySQL database with a Waterfall development model approach. The implementation results show that the system is capable of producing teaching schedules quickly, accurately, and with minimal time conflicts. Thus, the application of the Greedy algorithm has proven to be effective in improving efficiency, accuracy, and flexibility in managing teacher schedules in a school environment.

This study aims to introduce the characteristics of bullying as a criminal act through Antic (Anti-Bullying Cards) as an educational medium for teachers and parents. Bullying is a form of violent behavior that can have negative impacts on victims, especially among children and adolescents. Although bullying frequently occurs in schools and homes, public understanding—particularly among teachers and parents—regarding its legal aspects remains limited. Therefore, this study develops Antic as an educational tool to help teachers and parents identify the signs and effects of bullying while providing insights into its legal implications. The medium is designed as interactive cards containing information on the definition of bullying, its various types, and preventive measures. This approach is expected to raise awareness and enhance the knowledge of teachers and parents about their crucial roles in preventing and addressing bullying, thereby fostering a safer environment for children. The study employs a research-based media development method, incorporating product trials with teachers and parents to gather feedback for further refinement of the medium

The purpose of Indonesian national education is to educate the nation. Adolescence is a time of crisis where teenagers try to find their identity. Today, the world of education is being hit by very deep concern with the frequent occurrence of juvenile delinquency or what is known as juvenile delinquency which has quite serious impacts on the development of themselves (teenagers) and society. Because delinquency is an anti-social act, violating applicable laws, which is carried out by a person approaching adulthood with his own knowledge which if carried out by an adult is qualified as a crime. News about delinquency is sprayed like bullets on the battlefield and unfortunately the ones who are always hit by insults are the schools, in fact, it is not uncommon for the public to assume that the low quality of student behavior or personality is due to the school's inability to control the psyche of its students. In this case, we learn about what types of delinquency are carried out by teenagers, the factors that influence teenagers to commit delinquency and how schools try to overcome this delinquency. The purpose of this study was to determine the forms of juvenile delinquency, factors that influence juvenile delinquency and school efforts in overcoming juvenile delinquency. To obtain accurate data, the author uses qualitative descriptive research, namely by using the method of describing and analyzing research results without using calculation formulas, while in obtaining data the author uses direct observation, interviews with informants, and documentation. From the data obtained, it explains that the real state of juvenile delinquency (students) is still relatively common and not dangerous such as playing truant, coming late to school, not doing homework, making noise and so on.

Then regarding the data obtained as an effort by the school to overcome juvenile delinquency (students), including cooperation with parents and the community and providing educational punishment. In addition, it also creates a commitment to all teachers to always remind every student who commits any form of violation. As a suggestion that must be done in overcoming juvenile delinquency is that parents, schools and the community should create a conducive environment, provide services and motivate teenagers to always fill their free time with positive activities. Establish interactions between students and teachers as harmoniously as possible. There needs to be self-introspection of the Teaching and Learning Activities carried out by teachers and students (teenagers).
