This community service activity aims to improve students' understanding of entrepreneurship through the Socialization of Basic Entrepreneurship for Individual Businesses at SMKN 1 Banyudono, Boyolali Regency. Entrepreneurship education plays a crucial role in preparing vocational school students to enter the workforce and become independent entrepreneurs. However, students' understanding remains limited, both conceptually and practically, particularly regarding individual businesses. This activity was designed using a community organizing approach by actively involving students in all stages of the activity. The implementation method included entrepreneurship socialization, interactive discussions, case studies, simple business simulations, and short interviews. A mixed-method approach was used, namely qualitative through observation and discussion, and quantitative through pre-test and post-test evaluation. The results of the activity showed a significant increase in student understanding, marked by an increase in the average score from the pre-test to the post-test. In addition, there was a positive change in attitude in the form of increased participation, self-confidence, and student awareness of the potential of individual businesses as a realistic business option.

An earthquake occurs when energy is suddenly released within the earth’s layers, potentially causing loss of life and environmental damage. One factor contributing to the high impact of earthquakes is the lack of student understanding and inadequate education on disaster preparedness. This study aimed to assess earthquake disaster management education at the Nur Adia Junior High School Education Foundation, Tanjung Selamat, Deli Serdang. A quantitative pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest and posttest was applied, involving 63 eighth-grade students. Data were collected through questionnaires to measure students’ knowledge before and after the educational intervention on earthquake disaster management. The results indicated that before the education, 69.8% of students rarely received information about earthquake causes, 61.9% had never participated in school earthquake evacuation simulations, and 55.5% had never practiced evacuation drills. After the educational intervention, knowledge improved, with 66.6% of students reporting that the program significantly increased their understanding of earthquakes. Statistical analysis showed a significant difference between pretest and posttest scores (Sig. 2-tailed = 0.000 < 0.05), confirming the effectiveness of the intervention. The study concluded that education on earthquake disaster management can enhance students’ knowledge and preparedness. It is recommended that schools implement regular educational programs and disaster simulation exercises to cultivate students’ readiness and promote a culture of disaster preparedness within the school environment.

The purpose of this study was to explore the extent to which the Somatic, Auditory, Visual, and Intellectual (SAVI) learning model can improve students' understanding of Fiqh at MTs Negeri 2 Cilacap. The background of this study is the low level of student understanding, which is caused by a teaching approach that is still teacher-focused, resulting in less student involvement in the learning process. This study used a quantitative approach with a Quasi-Experimental Non-Equivalent Control Group Design. The research sample consisted of two classes, namely the experimental class and the control class, each containing 31 students. The research instrument was a Fiqh understanding test whose validity and reliability had been tested. The resulting data analysis test, which was carried out using a normality test, showed that all test items were declared valid (0.101 > 0.05), as well as the homogeneity test (0.773 > 0.05) and the t-test (0.025). so that Ho was rejected and Ha was accepted, meaning there was a difference between the control class and the experimental class. The results of the study show the effectiveness of the SAVI learning model on students' understanding of Islamic jurisprudence at MTs Negeri 2 Cilacap.

This study explores the shift from traditional to modernist educational paradigms in Islamic boarding schools (pesantren), which have been in existence since before Indonesia’s independence. The shift involves adapting learning methods while retaining traditionalist approaches, ensuring that they meet modern needs without eliminating their core values. The study uses a qualitative-phenomenological approach to examine three main areas: (1) the strategy of educational values and spiritual practices employed by pesantren leaders, with an emphasis on the TAQWA method, which aims to improve student understanding quickly; (2) the integration of Qur'an literacy, religious traditions, and environmental empowerment in the educational process; and (3) the impact of this model on student character development. Qur'an literacy in this context extends beyond reading and memorizing verses, focusing on understanding and actualizing its values in daily life. Religious practices such as book study, worship routines, and etiquette coaching promote moral development. Environmental activities, such as agriculture and natural resource management, encourage independence and ecological awareness. This holistic approach can serve as a model for character education, blending spiritual, social, and environmental aspects, while strengthening pesantren's role in fostering moral and ecological awareness.

Based on the results of this study, it can be concluded that the use of digital media in the form of infographics can be effective in improving students' history learning outcomes, particularly in understanding the material on the national movement. Therefore, it is recommended that history teachers consider using infographics in their lessons to improve the quality of teaching and student learning outcomes.

Hand washing is a major pillar in clean and healthy living behaviors (PHBS). However, there are still children who do not understand the correct handwashing technique so that germ cleaning is not optimal. This community service activity aims to improve students' knowledge and motor skills in practicing the six steps of hand washing according to World Health Organization (WHO) standards. The method used in this activity is interactive counseling combined with live demonstrations. The stages of the activity include providing material through audiovisual media (video/poster), direct demonstrations by instructors, and independent practice by all participants. In addition, a question and answer session was held to ensure student understanding and corrective feedback on inappropriate movements. Evaluation instruments in the form of observation sheets were used to assess the accuracy of the sequence, duration, and coverage of the hand area when washing. The result of this activity was the success of all participants in practicing the six-step sequence of handwashing correctly independently. The involvement of teachers and school health workers also strengthens the sustainability of this practice through regular monitoring. Through this education, it is hoped that early awareness will arise which has become a routine habit to reduce the risk of disease transmission in the school and home environment and support the creation of a culture of clean living from an early age.

Polysemy is an important semantic phenomenon in Indonesian language learning in elementary schools because one word form can have more than one interrelated meaning. Understanding polysemy affects students' reading skills, text comprehension, and literacy development. However, studies that specifically examine polysemy in elementary school Indonesian language materials are still limited. This study aims to examine the forms of polysemy, how they are presented in Indonesian language textbooks for elementary schools, and their implications for student understanding. The study uses a qualitative approach with a literature review design. Data were obtained from semantics books and national and international journal articles published between 2017 and 2024 that were relevant to the research topic. Data analysis was conducted using content analysis techniques. The results of the study show that polysemy in elementary school Indonesian language materials appears in the form of context-based, functional, and extended meanings, with a presentation that is not yet fully systematic, thus potentially causing misconceptions and affecting students' reading comprehension.

Electronics learning in higher education continues to face various challenges, particularly in the provision of interactive learning media capable of concretely and engagingly visualizing the form, characteristics, and working principles of electronic components. The limitations of conventional learning media often result in abstract learning processes, which in turn lead to a low level of student understanding of basic electronics concepts. This study aims to develop the AMPERE as an innovative and technologically relevant interactive learning medium. The research employed R&D approach using the Borg & Gall model, which includes the stages of needs analysis, design, product development, validity testing, and limited implementation. The AMPERE application was developed using marker based AR technology, in which a smartphone camera detects markers to display and interact with 3D electronic component objects in real time. The results indicate that the AMPERE application achieved a high level of validity, with a score of 0.88 from subject-matter experts and 0.84 from media experts, and was therefore deemed suitable for use as a learning medium. The small-group trial results showed a practicality level of 82.07%, while the practicality test during the implementation stage reached 85.67%. These findings demonstrate that AMPERE is effective in enhancing learning interactivity and assisting students in understanding the form, function, and working principles of electronic components through smartphone-based digital visualization. Theoretically, these results are consistent with constructivist learning theory, which emphasizes active knowledge construction through direct experience and interaction with learning objects.

This research aims to analyze in depth the level of understanding among Islamic Religious Education (PAI) students at the Islamic Institute of Nahdlatul Ulama (IAINU) Tuban regarding the concept of Ihsan and its implementation in community life. The urgency of this study is based on the strategic role of PAI students as future educators who are required to integrate spiritual dimensions and social ethics into their personalities. This research employs a quantitative approach with a descriptive survey method. Data were collected through a Likert scale questionnaire instrument that had been tested for validity and reliability, distributed to a sample of students selected through proportional random sampling. Data analysis was carried out systematically using descriptive statistics to calculate the mean value and categorization percentage across cognitive, affective, and applicative dimensions. The results indicated that the overall level of understanding of Ihsan among PAI students at IAINU Tuban falls into the low category, with a total mean score of 1.909. In detail, the affective dimension recorded the lowest score, indicating a weakness in the internalisation of spiritual consciousness, while the applicative dimension showed a slightly higher score but remained within the low category. It is concluded that there is a significant gap between the idealism of the Ihsan concept and the actual understanding of students in the field. These findings provide important implications for the need to reconstruct character-building strategies and the PAI curriculum, emphasizing the aspect of inner spiritual internalisation over mere formalistic cognitive knowledge transfer to produce graduates with authentic social piety.
