Artificial intelligence (AI) has become a transformative tool in higher education, yet many students lack the skills to utilize it effectively. This community service program aims to enhance students' AI literacy through workshops on leveraging ChatGPT and other AI tools for academic productivity. Using hybrid training (offline and online), live demonstrations (ChatGPT, Gemini, Bing AI), and hands-on mentoring, the program involved 50 multidisciplinary students from University X. Post-workshop evaluation revealed a 75% improvement in participants' ability to use AI for academic writing, research, and time management. The initiative aligns with SDG 4 (Quality Education) and SDG 9 (Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure).

Di masa transformasi global, kemampuan berbicara Bahasa Inggris menjadi kebutuhan penting bagi mahasiswa untuk menunjang komunikasi internasional dan pengembangan karier. Namun, masih banyak mahasiswa yang mengalami kesulitan berbahasa lisan karena minimnya praktik dan interaksi nyata. Kegiatan English Talk Club (ETC) hadir sebagai solusi inovatif untuk mengatasi kendala tersebut melalui pendekatan pertukaran budaya. Program PkM ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan kemampuan berbicara Bahasa Inggris mahasiswa lokal, memfasilitasi pertukaran budaya antar mahasiswa, dan membentuk komunitas belajar bahasa yang aktif dan berkelanjutan Metode yang digunakan adalah pendekatan partisipatif melalui sosialisasi, pelaksanaan diskusi tematik mingguan, pendampingan, evaluasi, dan refleksi. Kegiatan ini melibatkan 60 peserta yang terdiri dari mahasiswa anggota ETC Universitas Pekalongan dan mahasiswa asing dari Mariano Marcos State Univeristy, Filipina. Hasil kegiatan PkM menunjukkan peningkatan signifikan dalam kepercayaan diri dan kelancaran berbicara mahasiswa, serta motivasi tinggi dari mahasiswa asing untuk mempraktikkan Bahasa Inggris dan mengenal budaya lokal. ETC berkembang secara organik melalui media daring dan partisipasi aktif mahasiswa lintas program studi. Dapat disimpulkan bahwa ETC merupakan strategi efektif dalam pembelajaran Bahasa berbasis komunitas dan budaya.

The purpose of this community service is to provide socialization to elementary school students, especially grade IV, in four locations related to Augmented Reality media. Learning today is not limited only to books or explanations from teachers. Learning today can utilize technological developments. Gadgets that have been a means of entertainment can be used as learning media. The use of gadgets as learning media can provide different facilities so that they can foster student learning motivation. It is hoped that after this socialization activity, students will have broader knowledge related to learning media. Developing technology can be a fun learning medium for students.

OPTIMALISASI PELATIHAN SAINS INFORMATIKA/KOMPUTER DENGAN BLENDED E-LEARNING UNTUK PERSIAPAN UTBK PADA SMA BATIK

Intensive training in preparation for the Computer-Based Written Exam (UTBK) is a strategic need to support the success of students entering higher education. One of the increasingly relevant and challenging fields is Informatics/Computer Science, which requires mastery of algorithmic concepts, programming, and computational logic. However, conventional training methods are often unable to answer the dynamics of flexible, effective, and broad-reaching learning needs. Therefore, the Blended E-Learning approach—a combination of online and face-to-face learning—is needed to optimize the training process. This objective is to design a Blended E-Learning-based training model that is adaptive, structured, and oriented towards achieving UTBK competencies in Informatics. The methodology used includes analyzing participant needs, designing curriculum, developing digital learning media, and implementing learning outcome evaluations. The results of the study show that the Blended E-Learning approach is able to increase student engagement, strengthen mastery of the material, and provide a more flexible and efficient learning space. With systematic implementation and appropriate technological support, this training model is expected to be a strategic alternative in improving students' academic readiness and expanding access to quality education in the field of Informatics/Computers.

MENGEMBANGKAN TOLERANSI MASYARAKAT MELALUI PILOT PROJECT DESA PANCASILA

2025-08-02T11:01:00+07:00

Globalization has not only had a positive impact on tolerance, but also a negative one. The pilot project for the launch of the Pancasila Village is one effort to develop community tolerance. This study has three objectives: (1) to determine the implementation model for the Pancasila Village pilot project in developing community tolerance, (2) to identify the reasons why the launch of the Pancasila Village is appropriate at this time, and (3) to determine the extent of community participation in ensuring the success of Pancasila Village programs. This community service activity was carried out through methods of outreach, training, technology application, mentoring and evaluation, and program sustainability. The study concluded that, first, the implementation model for the Pancasila Village pilot project in developing community tolerance involved both physical and non-physical activities. Physical activities included installing street signs, displaying the national emblem on each house, and naming the Ngemplak Village field as the Pancasila Village Field. Non-physical activities included focus group discussions (FGDs), outreach, outreach, and so on. Second, the rationale for declaring Ngemplak Village a Pancasila Village is appropriate at this time because of the deviant behaviors and inferiority complexes resulting from globalization. Third, community participation in the success of the Pancasila Village, in efforts to develop societal tolerance, is significant and urgent.

KOLABORASI PENDIDIKAN VOKASI DENGAN TEKNOLOGI AI: TREN TEKNOLOGI AI UNTUK MENINGKATKAN KOMPETENSI SISWA SMK 2 KLATEN

2025-08-09T10:49:45+07:00

The technological transformation of the Industrial Revolution 4.0 era and the shift towards Society 5.0 have fundamentally changed the social, economic, and educational landscape. Vocational High Schools (SMK), as the vanguard of vocational education, play a strategic role in producing skilled workers who are ready to face the challenges of technology-based industries, particularly those related to artificial intelligence (AI). However, there is a gap between industry needs and the competencies of students and teachers at vocational schools. To address this, the Diploma 3 Vocational Study Program in Informatics Management at Widya Dharma University, Klaten (Unwidha) conducted an introductory training on AI technology for students of SMK Negeri 2 Klaten. This activity aims to improve technological literacy and student readiness for the increasingly AI-dominated workforce. The implementation method included lectures, discussions, and practical training, with a focus on introducing basic AI concepts and their practical applications. The results of the activity showed an increase in students' understanding and skills in AI technology, as well as strengthening collaboration between higher education and vocational education. It is hoped that this activity can be continued and integrated into the vocational education curriculum to increase the relevance of learning to industry needs.
