Pembuatan Ecobrick sebagai Bentuk Ramah Lingkungan dalam Mengembangkan Motorik Halus pada Anak Usia Dini 4-6 Tahun di Desa Jatirejo Kabupaten Pasuruan
This study aims to describe the implementation of ecobrick activities as an environmentally friendly initiative and as a strategy to enhance fine motor development in early childhood aged 4-6 years in Jatirejo Village, Pasuruan Regency. This research employed a descriptive qualitative approach using observation, interviews, documentation, and hands-on ecobrick practice. The findings indicate that the ecobrick process-which includes collecting plastic waste, washing, drying, cutting, inserting plastic pieces into bottles, and compressing the contents-effectively improves children’s fine motor skills, particularly in hand-eye coordination, finger strength, accuracy, and cutting ability. Children demonstrated positive responses, including high enthusiasm, curiosity, and increased awareness of environmental preservation. The activity also strengthened children’s social development through cooperation, communication, and shared responsibility. Overall, ecobrick activities function not only as an innovative waste-management solution but also as an educational medium that holistically supports child development and instills environmental awareness from an early age.
Edukasi Karakteristik Genetik dan Diagnostik Molekuler Virus Dengue Serta Upaya Pencegahan Infeksinya melalui Lilin Aromaterapi
Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is a life-threatening disease caused by the dengue virus, which consists of four serotypes: DEN-1, DEN-2, DEN-3, and DEN-4. Laboratory examinations supporting DHF diagnosis include complete blood count, urine analysis, serological tests, and viral identification using Reverse Transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR). Prevention efforts focus on eliminating Aedes aegypti mosquito larvae through the implementation of 3M Plus, as well as using mosquito bite prevention products such as aromatherapy candles that are simple and practical for community use. Mancasan Baki Village, Sukoharjo, has experienced a high incidence of dengue cases, including fatalities, highlighting the need for community education on the genetic characteristics and molecular diagnostics of the dengue virus and preventive measures using innovative products. Educational activities were conducted through community presentations and demonstrations on making aromatherapy candles. The effectiveness of the program was measured by comparing participants’ knowledge before and after the intervention. The average pretest score was 6.63, which increased to 8.89 in the posttest. Statistical analysis using a t-test showed a significant difference (p < 0.05). Participant satisfaction results indicated that 64.5% rated the program as good, 32.5% as very good, and 3% as fairly good.
Pendampingan Motivasi dan Spiritual Emosional Frequency Therapy (SEFT) untuk Lansia di Kelurahan Bandungrejosari, Sukun, Malang
Elderly people are individuals aged 60 and over who have equal rights in community life. The emotional state of the elderly is a psychological state that encompasses the ability to think, feel, and act, as manifested through behavior. To stabilize the emotions of the elderly, cadres and their families must have an adequate level of emotional intelligence. One non-pharmacological approach currently being studied is the Spiritual Emotional Freedom Technique (SEFT), an emotional healing method that combines spiritual elements, positive affirmations, and stimulation of the body's meridian points. SEFT is believed to reduce psychological stress that contributes to high blood pressure. This therapy is easy to learn, can be performed independently, and requires no special equipment, making it highly suitable for use in elderly communities with limited access to advanced medical services. At this event, counselors provided support in delivering material on Motivation and Prevention of Psychological Disorders in the Elderly using the SEFT. The purpose of this material is to provide motivation, reduce, and prevent psychological impacts. Participants benefited from the material, knowledge, and experience sharing, as well as solutions, resulting in a better understanding of motivation, reduction, and prevention of psychological impacts. This community service program was conducted with approximately 33 participants in the "Teratai" elderly group. It is hoped that this community service program will be beneficial and provide considerations for solutions and decisions, adding information and insight related to motivation, reduction, and prevention of psychological impacts.
