Green open space is one of the needs that cannot be ignored and is one of the elements of the city. The area of green open space in South Tangerang City has decreased because development continues to grow in each sub-district in South Tangerang City and the increase in population. Reduction of green open space caused by population density will automatically require building expansion. The purpose of this research is to find out and analyze the application of dynamic governance in the development of green open space in South Tangerang City. The method used in this research is descriptive research with a qualitative approach. This research uses theory with 3 indicators, think ahead, think again, and think across. Data collection techniques with observation, interviews, and documentation. Data analysis techniques with data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results showed that in the think ahead indicator, it can be said that the South Tangerang City Environmental Service has applied forward thinking because it is able to identify environmental developments, understand their implications and identify strategies needed to take advantage of new opportunities and prevent potential threats. In the thinking again indicator, it can be said that the Environment Agency of South Tangerang City has not used this thinking to achieve the desired solution in increasing the quantity of green open space. Where the percentage of green open space quantity in South Tangerang City from year to year is very slow to increase. In the thinking across indicator, it can be said that the Environment Agency of South Tangerang City has not done “learning from other cities” such as analyzing and then innovating practices that have been successfully implemented in a city. However, the Environment Agency of South Tangerang City is still trying to optimize the development of green open space in South Tangerang City.

The aim of this research is to evaluate the influence and effectiveness of the PAILKEM method (Active, Innovative, Environmentally Friendly, Creative, Effective, Interesting Learning) in improving the literacy understanding of class I and II students at SD Negeri 163 Palembang. The research method used was quasi-experimental with a pretest-posttest control group design. The sample consisted of two groups, namely the experimental group which was given learning using the PAILKEM method and the control group which used the conventional method. Data collection techniques include pretest, posttest, and questionnaire, which are analyzed using the N-Gain test, independent sample t-test, and homogeneity test. Research data includes primary data in the form of pre-test and post-test results as well as secondary data collected using a questionnaire to determine student responses to this method. The increase in posttest scores in the experimental group was significant compared to the control group. The t-test results show that there is a significant difference between the experimental and control groups, which means that the application of PAILKEM has a significant influence on increasing students' literacy understanding. This is reinforced by the results of the N-Gain test which meets the high criteria and meets the Indonesian KKTP. The student questionnaire also showed very good responses regarding various aspects of the PAILKEM dimensions. In conclusion, the PAILKEM method is effective and has a positive effect on the literacy understanding of grade I and II students and can be used as an innovative alternative in teaching literacy in elementary schools.

The development of self-reliance among correctional inmates faces challenges in terms of surveillance effectiveness and order within correctional institutions. One of the main issues encountered is the lack of an optimal surveillance system, which can hinder the rehabilitation process and increase the risk of rule violations. To address this issue, a socialization program for the installation of additional CCTV cameras in the Self-Reliance Development Room at Banyuwangi Class IIA Correctional Facility was conducted. The program aimed to enhance surveillance effectiveness, create a safer rehabilitation environment, and encourage behavioral changes among inmates. The methods used in this community service project included needs analysis, coordination with correctional authorities, conducting socialization sessions for officers and inmates, and evaluating the impact of CCTV installation. The results indicate that the installation of CCTV contributes to improving inmate discipline, reducing rule violations, and strengthening transparency and accountability in the rehabilitation process. Additionally, this program fosters the emergence of local leaders among inmates who play a role in maintaining order. These findings align with social control and social learning theories, which emphasize that effective surveillance can shape individual behavior and promote compliance with established norms. In conclusion, the implementation of surveillance technology in the correctional system can serve as a strategic step in supporting inmate rehabilitation and social reintegration.

The city of Tanjungpinang has successfully reduced the prevalence of stunting consistently from 2021 to 2023, from 18,8% in 2021 to 15,7% in 2022, and to 15,2% in 2023 compared to six other regencies/cities in the Riau Islands Province. This research aims to identify the strategies used by the DKP2KB of Tanjungpinang City in efforts to reduce the prevalence of stunting from 2021 to 2023. Using a qualitative research method with a case study approach, there were nineteen informants, and data collection techniques included interviews and documentation. This research uses the strategy theory from Geoff Max Mulgan, which includes purposes, environments, directions, actions, and learning. The findings obtained are, (1) Purposes: in terms of output to achieve the national target of 14% with a performance target of 3.48% from 2021-2023 and outcomes in the form of improving the quality of human resources and the quality of life of the community. (2) Environments: still facing pollution constraints, suboptimal parenting patterns, and difficult economic conditions for the community. (3) Directions: includes commands in regulations, coordination through forums, building motivation, and effective communication. (4) Actions: activities carried out, namely sensitive interventions involving cross-sector, cross-program, and private sectors to facilitate assistance and innovation, while specific interventions involve intervening in public health. (5) Learning: all activities have been carried out well, as evidenced by the national survey results showing a decrease in stunting prevalence, although the target of 14% has not yet been reached, and the stunting program performance targets have been successfully achieved. However, the overall effectiveness of the program heavily depends on active community participation. Therefore, to address this, the researchers suggest that the government encourage knowledge, awareness, and participation from the community.

Abstract, In recent years, there have been challenges faced by MTs Al Abraar in an effort to improve student learning outcomes, especially in creating creative and innovative learning. The partners involved in this program are teachers at the Al-Abraar Tandem Hilir Private Middle School, Hamparan Perak District, where the main problem experienced by partners is the lack of knowledge in using IT in creating creative teaching materials. Therefore, the solution offered is to provide training in creating creative teaching materials to improve teachers' knowledge and skills in creating, using and optimizing the use of Canva. The location for implementing this program has been discussed with partners, namely at the Al Abraar Tandem Hilir Private Middle School located at Jln. Listrik Emplasmen Tandam Hilir I, Hamparan Perak District, Deli Serdang Regency, North Sumatra. This program consists of stages of preparation, implementation, monitoring, and evaluation. In implementing this service, the team implemented the in-house training method. In the implementation of the training, the community service team provided tutorial materials on the use of Canva which would be carried out for 2 meetings (2 meetings per material) and carried out alternately with a duration of 120 minutes each. Training activities on this were carried out on August 8-9, 2024 offline with lecture methods, direct training, discussions and questions and answers. The results of this activity can be seen that the participants of the activity can recognize and can create creative teaching material designs using Canva and its supporting features and are used in teaching. The sustainability of this program can be measured by the existence of teaching materials made using Canva.

Education plays a crucial role in shaping an individual's personality and character, including through character education that instills moral and ethical values. Character education in Kindergarten (TK) is very important in forming the foundational personality of children, such as responsibility, discipline, and respect for others. Teachers play a key role in instilling civic disposition (citizenship attitude) by integrating Pancasila values into the learning process. This study aims to describe the role of Pancasila and Citizenship Education (PPKn) teachers in instilling civic disposition at TK Peupado Malanuza. The method used is a descriptive qualitative approach, with data collected through observation and interviews. The results show that teachers implement civic disposition through activities such as making a Garuda eagle collage, singing the national anthem, and recognizing national symbols, which aim to instill Pancasila values. Teachers also emphasize discipline through activities such as tidying up toys and working together in group tasks. This study demonstrates that the implementation of civic disposition has successfully shaped the children’s character, instilling discipline, responsibility, and love for the country. For sustainability, teachers need to conduct evaluations and involve parents in supporting the values taught.

This research aims to determine the types of language styles used by the main female character in the novel "Mariposa" by Luluk HF and to analyze the meaning and function of these language styles in building character characterization. The problem that will be raised in this research is the form and variations of language styles that appear in the dialogue and monologue of the main character, as well as the role of these language styles in revealing the psychological dimensions of the character. The method used is a qualitative descriptive method with a stylistic approach, where data is collected through reading and note-taking techniques for quotations that contain language styles in the novel. The results of the analysis show that there are five dominant language styles used by the main character, namely metaphor, hyperbole, personification, simile, and repetition. This language style functions to describe the character's feelings, strengthen the delivery of the message, and build an atmosphere in the story. This research has the potential to become a reference for the development of stylistic studies of contemporary Indonesian literature and can be used as learning material for stylistic analysis at the tertiary level as well as for similar research with a focus on other linguistic aspects.

Teenagers today are filled with a number of rapid technological changes and developments. From a financial perspective, teenagers at this stage have a growing ability to understand the principles of saving and spending money, not only the basics, but also long-term goals. The three main areas that parents should focus on are income, savings, and responsible spending (shopping or investment). Problems that often occur in society (including teenagers) are such as wasteful living (lifestyle), online loan debt, and being trapped in online gambling. The emergence of several entertainment venues, cafes, and angkringan makes spending difficult for teenagers to control. The methods used in this service are lectures, simulations, discussions and questions and answers regarding the usefulness and benefits of understanding financial literacy. The results of this service show the different nature and patterns of financial management of teenagers requiring presentation patterns that need to be adjusted. In the implementation of the activity, there were participants (some) who were more enthusiastic or serious about this series of training. Presenters (speakers) require the application of andragogy model learning. This model is intended so that the presenter (material provider) and participants are not bored, comfortable in communicating and feedback appears quickly. In the future, training or workshops will be more directed to more technical or specific, for example capital market investment, mutual funds or other investment models.

The use of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) in higher education in Indonesia offers great opportunities, but faces significant challenges related to copyright. The technology is capable of generating new content that supports more adaptive learning, but raises questions regarding the ownership of intellectual works, especially in the context of “fair use” and copyright protection. This research aims to examine the legal challenges in the integration of GenAI in Indonesian higher education learning as well as opportunities for its development. The method used is juridical-normative research, by analyzing secondary data from relevant regulations, books, and journals. The results show that the lack of clarity in copyright regulations in Indonesia can hinder the optimal utilization of GenAI. Nevertheless, this technology offers significant potential to improve the personalization of learning and the quality of higher education in Indonesia, provided that comprehensive and specific regulations are developed soon.
