This study aims to describe and examine effective strategies for memorizing the Quran among students at Pondok Pesantren Salafiyah Ula An-Nashar Batam. The background of this study is influenced by the variation in memorization results, which are related to the learning approaches implemented at the pesantren. Using a descriptive qualitative research design, data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation studies of both memorizing students and tahfiz instructors. The findings of the study revealed three basic methods used: (1) the Wahdah method as a cognitive foundation for memorization, (2) the Sima’i method to support the students’ auditory memory, and (3) individual guidance (talaqqi) to ensure the accuracy of Quranic recitation. The success of these memorization strategies is supported by the learning ecosystem, which includes spiritual motivation, a conducive pesantren environment, teacher competency, and family involvement in supporting the memorization process. The implications of this study provide practical insights for tahfiz program managers and enrich the knowledge of Quranic learning, especially at the foundational level, for the development of more effective methods in producing Quran memorizers.

Graphic design training is an important strategy to enhance student learning competencies, particularly for students participating in the Internship Program (PKL) at Rideatama. This study aims to provide foundational understanding and advanced skills in using the Canva application as an effective learning medium. The training was attended by PKL students from SMKN 1 Kopang with an interactive learning method and hands-on practice. The evaluation results showed significant improvement in creativity, the ability to utilize design features, and students' confidence in developing independent works. The majority of participants stated that the training material was relevant to their needs, and the instructor's delivery was easy to understand, as reflected in the average evaluation score of 86.67%. Although there were some suggestions regarding the training duration being too short, overall, the activity successfully enhanced student learning competencies. This training is expected to serve as a competency development model that is beneficial for both the education and professional sectors, providing skills that can be directly applied in the field of graphic design.

PT. Surya Pratista Hutama, as a company committed to improving the quality of its human resources, continues to strive to provide innovations to support employee competency development. One strategic step taken is the implementation of a Learning Management System LMS as a form of learning innovation in the digital era. This LMS implementation is not only intended as a means of knowledge transfer, but also as a medium to create a culture of sustainable learning within the company environment. The observation conducted aims to determine the extent to which the LMS can support the learning process in the company, with a focus on its effectiveness, challenges, and impact on improving employee competency. The method used is a descriptive study with a qualitative approach, through interviews, direct observation, and documentation related to digital-based learning activities. The observation results show that the implementation of the LMS provides various benefits, including easy access to learning anytime and anywhere, flexibility that allows employees to adjust their learning schedules to work activities, and increased motivation and independence in learning. However, there are several obstacles that require attention, such as limited digital literacy among some users, lack of direct interaction between instructors and participants, and the need to adjust content to be more relevant to daily work demands. Overall, the LMS has great potential to improve the effectiveness of training at PT. Surya Pratista Hutama.

Shadow puppet craft training is a strategic intervention in preserving cultural heritage and strengthening the creative economy sector in Indonesia. To ensure the effectiveness and efficiency of training, a planning approach is needed that is not only conventional, but also based on quantitative analysis and intelligent systems. This community service proposes a training planning strategy using an interdisciplinary approach involving Operation Research, Design of Experiment (DoE), Simulation, Metaheuristic Algorithms, and Data Mining. This study begins with the identification of key training variables, such as duration, number of participants, initial competency level, teaching materials, and instructor resources. Through the DoE approach, various combinations of variables are systematically tested to identify the optimal training design. Next, Simulation is used to model the dynamics of training implementation and evaluate implementation scenarios. To predict training needs and participant behavior, Data Mining techniques are applied to historical data of arts community training. In the final stage, Metaheuristic algorithms such as Genetic Algorithm and Simulated Annealing are used to solve complex and large-scale scheduling and resource allocation problems. The results of the integration of these approaches show an increase in training efficiency of up to 27% as well as increased participant satisfaction and the quality of work results. This activity demonstrates that applying a quantitative, data-driven approach to traditional crafts training planning can provide significant added value. This model can be replicated in other training programs based on local wisdom and other creative industry sectors.

Education has the function of instilling, developing, and implementing rational values, regularity, diligence, and productive attitudes which in turn are able to bring about humans who have noble character, are devoted to God Almighty, and have human values. Pancasila and Citizenship Education or what is more often called PPKn is one of the subjects that must be given to students in order to form good citizens, loyal to Pancasila and the 1945 Constitution. The aim of this activity is to increase the competency of PPKn teachers in the field of Anti-Corruption Education, eradicating corruption through more effective and systematic educational strategies through students and teachers in anti-corruption outreach efforts. The implementation method is training which aims to increase understanding of the dangers of criminal acts of corruption and strengthen commitment as an extension of the eradication of corruption, followed by training in the form of mentoring prospective Anti-Corruption Counselors. It is hoped that the results of this activity will be that participants will later become anti-corruption educators, which requires a strong will and determination to lead the anti-corruption movement, namely perfection in conveying basic anti-corruption information and integrity. willing to have anti-corruption teacher qualifications
