The rapid advancement of digital technology in higher education has transformed learning and assessment systems, particularly through the adoption of Learning Management Systems (LMS) and Computer-Based Tests (CBT). However, many university students still face challenges in adapting to digital examination environments due to limited technical experience and digital literacy. This Community Service Activity (PKM) aims to enhance students’ academic readiness and digital competence through the implementation of a Moodle-based LMS at Universitas Murni Teguh. The activity was conducted in the form of an interactive workshop, including system introduction, simulation of CBT, guided practice, and discussion sessions involving university students and lecturers. The results showed a significant improvement in students’ understanding of LMS features, confidence in using CBT systems, and ability to manage digital-based examinations effectively. Active participation and engagement during the sessions reflected high enthusiasm and adaptability toward digital learning transformation. This activity demonstrates that the implementation of LMS Moodle is effective in improving academic preparedness and digital literacy among students, and can serve as a sustainable model for strengthening technology-based learning in higher education institutions.

The Public Speaking and Computer Network Cabling Training Activity at SMP YPK Sele Be Solu aims to improve students' competence in communication and technical skills in computer networking. The activity was carried out using an experiential learning approach with stages of observation, socialisation, hands-on training, and evaluation. The results of the activities show an increase in students' confidence in public speaking and basic technical skills in network cabling, including LAN cable installation, RJ-45 connectors, and cable testing. Intensive mentoring during the training helped students overcome difficulties and optimise their understanding. This activity demonstrates that combining soft skills and hard skills training through direct experience can improve students' overall competence, motivate learning, and prepare students to face academic and digital challenges in the future. In addition, this activity also strengthened cooperation between schools and universities in supporting the improvement of skills-based education quality. The enthusiasm of students during the training showed that practice-based learning methods are very effective at the junior high school level. With this activity, students have a strong foundation to develop their interests and potential in the fields of communication, information technology, and readiness to face the rapidly developing digital world.

The development of education in the digital era requires students to master not only academic skills, but also soft skills and hard skills as a provision to face the challenges of education and the world of work. However, the learning process at Papua High School in Sorong City is still teacher-oriented, so students' communication courage and technological skills have not developed optimally. This community service activity aims to empower students through public communication training (public speaking) and computer network cable techniques to strengthen 21st century skills. The method used is a participatory approach with hands-on practice through four stages: observation, socialization, training, and evaluation. Public speaking training is focused on increasing students' courage and confidence in communicating, while network cable training emphasizes basic technical skills such as recognizing cable types, RJ-45 connector functions, crimping techniques, and connectivity testing. The results of the activities showed high participation and enthusiasm from students, as well as increased public speaking courage and basic understanding in network cable making. The integration of public communication training and technology skills has been proven to have a positive impact on the development of student competencies. Therefore, this activity is recommended as a model for developing soft skills and hard skills for high school students, especially in areas with limited access to technology learning.

The training on computer network cabling serves not only to enhance students’ technical abilities but also to cultivate social values, collaborative behavior, and digital awareness within the school environment. The outreach activity conducted by students of Universitas Victory Sorong at SMA 2 Kabupaten Sorong aimed to strengthen students’ digital competence through the introduction of network devices and hands-on practice in creating LAN cables. The results indicate that this training effectively increased students’ understanding of computer network components, improved their practical skills in LAN cable assembly, and fostered cooperation and responsibility during group activities. From the perspective of Sociology of Education, the program contributed to the development of social capital by encouraging peer interaction, collaborative learning, and a deeper awareness of the role of technology in social life. This activity also addressed existing problems such as limited knowledge of network systems, lack of practical experience, and insufficient technology education in schools. Overall, the training led to improved technical comprehension, active participation, and enhanced social character formation. Therefore, computer network cabling training plays a significant role in promoting both digital literacy and social development among students in accordance with the principles of educational sociology.
