Household waste, which is mostly in the form of food waste such as vegetables and fruits, is a source of waste accumulation. More than fifty percent of the waste accumulation in Banyudono village, Boyolali, Central Java is household waste. The accumulation of garbage causes environmental pollution problems that can result in a decrease in the quality of life of residents. Garbage accumulation occurs because residents only throw it into the surrounding environment or rely on garbage transport trucks to be disposed of in landfills. This is due to the lack of knowledge among of residents (the participant of the service activities) in waste processing. Proper waste management not only makes the environment clean and healthy, but also improves the community's economy through the creation of value-selling products. To overcome the partner's problem, namely the accumulation of waste, the service team provides solutions according to the partner's needs, namely the transfer of science and technology (IPTEK) to process household waste (organic) into organic fertilizer (compost). The transfer of science and technology to Banyudono Village residents take place in July 2023 and participants were given assistance to implement the science and technology to treat waste independently. The results were monitored 3 months later according to the known composting method. Composting is done using EM4 bioactivator so that the results can be harvested within 3 months of composting. Compost quality analysis is carried out after the compost is physical and chemical mature which confirmed by checking pH and levels of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. The obtained compost was blackish with a smell like earth, and has a fine texture. The compost had a pH of 6.9 and the nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium levels meets SNI standards. Through this activity, participants able to processing household waste independently.

Abstract
Being able to speak a foreign language fluently is not enough in cross-cultural communication. In order to avoid miscommunication, the speaker needs to have the target language culture knowledge. Several utterances can be found rude by some cultures, while some culture might find it common. This could happen due to the differences of cultures and value. In small talk such as making a request, different culture has their own strategy, and some culture might find it rude when the speaker do not share the same the value and culture. This study aims to analyze American bilinguals in making a request in Indonesian and English. The data were collected based on DCT request scenarios and observation. There were five American participants who were involved in this study. The findings showed that American participants tended to be indirect when they made requests in English even though some of them were direct and they changed into direct strategies when they made a request in Indonesian. This study also reveals that in terms of making a request, Americans are more indirect when it comes to making a request. Therefore, it is suggested that having intercultural knowledge is important in learning a language in order to avoid misunderstanding.

Accurate resource planning is a critical challenge in managing Early Childhood Education (ECE) institutions, especially in semi-rural areas facing budget constraints and fluctuating student enrollment. This study aims to apply the Monte Carlo Simulation method as a quantitative approach to predict resource needs at PAUD Ceria Mojokerto over one academic year. The research focuses on three main components: teaching staff, stationery supplies, and classroom space. Historical data from the past five years were used to build probability distributions and model student enrollment and attendance rate uncertainties. PAUD Ceria Mojokerto was chosen as a case study due to its representativeness of typical conditions in semi-rural ECE settings. The simulation results indicate that the required number of teaching staff ranges from 2 to 5, stationery supplies range from 103 to 496 units, and classrooms range from 2 to 4 per academic year. These findings highlight that the approach offers more flexible and realistic estimates than conventional deterministic methods. Therefore, ECE administrators are encouraged to integrate quantitative methods such as Monte Carlo Simulation into their operational planning to enhance efficiency, resilience to student population dynamics, and data-driven decision-making. This research contributes to developing data-driven educational planning practices, particularly in resource-limited settings.

English is an essential language used in various aspects of life, and formal education remains the primary setting where students learn English. In Indonesian Junior High Schools, English is commonly taught using resources provided by the school, with textbooks or learning modules serving as key materials. Most of these schools have adopted the Emancipated Curriculum (Merdeka Curriculum) while some, particularly Islamic schools, supplement it with the Integrated Islamic School Network (JSIT) Curriculum. The JSIT Curriculum combines an integrated learning system with a full-day school model, emphasizing Islamic values and character building. Given these unique educational settings, it is important to explore teachers’ specific needs for English reading modules that align with the characteristics and goals of Islamic schools. This qualitative study involved 25 English teachers from Islamic junior high schools in Magelang Regency. Data were collected through questionnaires and interviews. The results reveal that teachers encounter challenges in teaching reading comprehension, primarily due to a lack of suitable learning resources reflecting Islamic schools' identity and educational objectives. Therefore, there is a significant need to develop English reading modules tailored to the values, vision, and mission of Islamic education to enhance classroom instruction.

This study aims to evaluate the use of educational games as a learning medium to enhance students' motivation and improve the quality of Natural and Social Sciences (IPAS) instruction at the elementary school level. The research employed a classroom action research approach consisting of two cycles. Data were collected through observations, documentation, assessment rubrics, tests, and field notes. The games used in the study included "whisper chain" and "thread pull," both of which were adapted to suit the IPAS subject matter. These games were not intended to introduce new concepts but rather to develop students' skills. The results showed that the games successfully stimulated students’ enthusiasm and encouraged them to engage in enjoyable learning activities. The findings indicate that using games as a learning medium is effective in enhancing the quality of IPAS instruction in elementary schools. The study concludes that: 1) Games are implemented after the teacher delivers the material to reinforce students' understanding; 2) Educational games have proven to be beneficial in improving the quality of IPAS learning at the elementary level.
