Science plays a crucial role in human life as it helps us understand the universe through observation, experimentation, and analysis. In education, science not only teaches scientific concepts but also fosters scientific attitudes and critical thinking skills in students. To make science education more meaningful, interactive, and relevant, a deep understanding of the Nature of Science (NOS) is essential. This study aims to explore the understanding, benefits, and application of scientific concepts in the teaching and learning process to shape students' scientific attitudes. Using a literature review method, this research gathers information from various relevant academic sources. The findings indicate that science encompasses elements of philosophy, sociology, history, and psychology that support scientific understanding. By understanding NOS, students will view science as a process of knowledge discovery, rather than merely a collection of facts. The application of science in education also impacts students' ability to apply knowledge in practical contexts, enhance their analytical skills, and adapt to societal changes.

Education is a process where individuals acquire knowledge and skills as provisions to be able to participate in the welfare of society. There are many things you can do to get a decent education, one of which is going to study in a new country (region). A person who is studying at university or college level is called a student. Students who are studying at a university and decide to leave their home and place of origin are called 'Overseas Students'. In their first year of study, overseas students will experience homesickness or an excessive feeling of longing for home. This homesickness phenomenon also occurs in new overseas students at the State University of Malang. From the results of research conducted by researchers, the percentage of homesickness experienced by Malang State University students reached 58%. This research was carried out using a quantitative survey method in the form of filling out questionnaires at several faculties at the State University of Malang. The data obtained was that 42 students experienced homesickness, 20 students often experienced homesickness, and 11 students rarely experienced homesickness. With the percentage figures obtained, of course homesickness is something that must be paid attention to, even though in quotes homesickness is not a mental illness, the consequences of homesickness itself can disrupt mental health. Of course, there are many ways you can reduce homesickness, such as doing useful activities. Homesickness cannot be cured completely, because basically longing is something that remains in the human conscience. However, homesickness can be overcome by finding a comfortable environment.

The software resource component, in terms of processes and computer programs that support EMIS, is quite well implemented. Data resources in the application of EMIS are seen from 3 sub-indicators, namely data categories, timeliness of data collection, and rules in the data collection process where the three elements are quite well done by EMIS operators. Supporting factors that support the implementation of EMIS consist of first, the role of the leadership by coordinating the implementation of EMIS.    

In education, efforts to improve student character must be made. One of the activities that follows the independent curriculum is the Strengthening Pancasila Student Profile Project (P5).  In this P5 activity, students are given training that can stimulate the emergence of soft skills, namely a sense of responsibility, discipline, independence, caring, and a feeling of love for the country. It is hoped that the young generation whose love for Indonesia has emerged will have a high enthusiasm to improve their quality, by studying harder, so that they can participate in efforts to defend this country to increase the prosperity of the nation and the Indonesian state. It is recommended that activities such as P5 or LDKS be carried out periodically, with material programs arranged systematically to achieve the goals. To achieve the objectives effectively and efficiently, an activity program must be prepared such as a Training Program Outline and Learning Process Plan with a gradual and continuous implementation system.  

The training and mentoring activities for the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools for teachers were chosen with the aim of enhancing or improving teachers’ understanding and ability to implement AI technology in the educational environment. Initial interviews revealed a lack of knowledge and skills among teachers in utilizing AI tools, which affects the quality and effectiveness of learning. The methods applied in this community service include counseling and training, preceded by surveys and interviews. Teachers were given intensive training that included an overview of AI and how to apply AI tools in the teaching and learning process. Additionally, there was an implementation phase that required teachers to design and implement simple AI-based learning applications as supporting media. The AI tools used included Gamma, IlovePDF, chatPDF, and ChatGPT. The results showed significant improvements in teachers’ understanding and skills in using AI tools. Teachers were able to create AI-based learning applications aimed at enhancing interaction between teachers and students. Furthermore, teachers could reduce administrative workload and optimize resources. Thus, the use of AI can have a positive effect on the quality of learning. The implementation of AI also facilitates teachers’ work in managing administration, such as handling attendance, assessments, and lesson planning.
