Community participation refers to the active involvement of citizens in various stages of the development process, especially at the village level. A concrete example of community participation can be seen in the case study of Bendhung Lepen, located in Mrican Village, Yogyakarta. Bendhung Lepen is an irrigation canal that stems from the Gajah Wong River. Before its revitalization, the area faced numerous environmental problems, primarily due to household waste and pollution that contaminated the waterway and negatively affected the environment and public health. In response to these issues, local residents, along with relevant stakeholders, initiated an environmental conservation program. The main goal of this initiative was to restore the ecological function of Bendhung Lepen and transform it into a clean, green, and beneficial public space for the community. This study aims to measure the level of community participation in the environmental conservation program. Data collection methods included questionnaires for quantitative analysis and in-depth interviews for qualitative insights into community involvement. The results of the study show that community members were actively involved in various phases of the program, including planning, implementation, and evaluation. Stakeholders involved in the program included community leaders, youth groups, environmental organizations, and village officials. The forms of participation extended beyond voicing aspirations to contributing labor (through mutual cooperation) and materials (such as donations or supplies). According to Arnstein’s ladder of participation, the level of community participation in this conservation program falls under the category of "delegated power," which represents a high degree of participation. This means that the community was not merely involved as passive participants but was given real authority in decision-making and program management. These findings indicate that genuine and sustained community involvement plays a crucial role in the success of local environmental conservation efforts.

This study aims to test the effectiveness of an e-module based on the Ibis Paint X application in improving learning outcomes of participants in the Technical Drawing material of the Fashion Technology vocational program. The research method uses a quantitative approach with a one-group pretest-posttest design. The instruments used include pre-tests and post-tests, as well as user response questionnaires. Data were analyzed using normality, homogeneity, and N-Gain tests. The results show that the use of the e-module significantly improves the understanding of training participants, with high effectiveness based on the N-Gain test results. Additionally, user responses indicate that the e-module is practical and suitable for use in training. These findings suggest that the integration of the Ibis Paint X application in the e-module supports adaptive and effective digital learning in vocational training environments.

The era of digitalization has a significant impact on various aspects of life, including education. However, the existence of traditional games is increasingly eliminated due to technological developments. This study examines the implementation of the traditional game of ball ball as an interactive learning medium of the earth's gravitational force for elementary / middle school students. Using  the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method, this study identifies the benefits of the game of ball ball in improving students' understanding, motivation, and learning outcomes through a fun and interactive approach. The results of the study show that the ball game is able to integrate the concept of the earth's gravitational force in a simple but effective way. The game also facilitates the development of students' cognitive, psychomotor, affective, social, and spiritual aspects. The use of the game of ball in learning not only increases students' interest but also creates an inclusive and collaborative learning environment. The conclusion of this study confirms that the traditional game of bekel ball is an innovative and relevant learning medium in teaching physics concepts, especially the earth's gravitational force. The practical implications can be used as a guideline for educators to develop learning strategies based on local wisdom that support in-depth conceptual understanding. Further research is recommended to explore the potential of other traditional games in the learning of complex science concepts.

Turmeric and tamarind herbal medicineis a medicinal herb in liquid form that is made from turmeric (Curcuma domestica Val.), and tamarind fruit (Tamarindus indica L.) produced by the home industry. Jamu Gendong does not require a license to distribute, but the quality of herbal medicine must be so that it is safe for consumption. The purpose of this study was to determine the presence or absence of microbial contamination in the form of bacteria and molds/hamirs in the preparation of Jamu Gendong Kunyit Asam circulated in Harjosari I Village, Medan Amplas Subdistrict. The samples were taken from four locations: Jalan Garu II, Garu III, Garu IV, and Garu VI. The total plate count (PCA) test was carried out by dilution of stratified samples using Lactose Broth (LB) media, for bacterial tests 10 -1 to 10-5 dilutions, and for fungal tests 10-1 to 10-3 dilutions. The diluted samples were placed in medium and incubated at 45o±1o in an incubator. The bacterial total plate count was performed using Plate Count Agar (PCA) as the medium. It was incubated at 35-37oC for 24 h, and the mold/fungal test used Potato Dekstro Agar (PDA) as media and incubated at 20-25oC for 48 h. For comparison, we used packaging for herbal medicines purchased from supermarkets. Furthermore, the number of bacteria and fungi in the colon was observed and counted. The results showed fungal contamination in the home industry at Jamu Kunyit Asam. It was a sample collected from Garu II, a sample of 86×103. The samples had many colonists that exceeded the regularity set up in BPOM RI No. 32 of 2019 and SNI 19-2879-1992.
