al era but are often hindered by limitations in grammar, vocabulary, and structure. This community service program aimed to enhance students' writing abilities through the utilization of Artificial Intelligence (AI). The training method included interactive sessions, demonstrations of popular AI tools (e.g., Grammarly, ChatGPT, and Gemini), and hands-on practice in composing paragraphs and essays. The results showed a significant improvement in the students' grammatical accuracy, vocabulary richness, and coherence. The training also boosted the participants' confidence in writing. Implicitly, this program contributes to workforce readiness and digital literacy, offering a training model that can be replicated in other institutions. However, ongoing challenges must be addressed, particularly the risk of over-reliance on AI and the importance of further training to preserve authenticity and critical thinking in writing.

Abstract:Abstract: The rapid pace of digital transformation highlights the need to empower Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Jayapura City by integrating Artificial Intelligence (AI) into their business strategies.…
This community service initiative aims to assess MSME actors’ initial understanding of AI, deliver targeted training, and evaluate improvements in strategic planning using the Value Proposition Canvas (VPC). The program was conducted in three stages: pre-assessment, training implementation, and post-training evaluation. Initial findings revealed that most participants had limited knowledge of AI and its applications. However, after the training, there was a significant increase in participants’ confidence and capability. The training effectively reduced lack of knowledge by 40%, addressed infrastructure and internet challenges by 45%, and decreased uncertainty regarding AI's return on investment by 30%. Participants began applying tools such as ChatGPT, Canva AI, and the VPC method to better understand customer needs. Although the study was limited by a short evaluation period and a specific geographic focus, it offers valuable insights for policymakers, educators, and development stakeholders. The findings support the importance of accessible, hands-on training in making AI a practical and beneficial resource for small businesses, ultimately promoting inclusive, technology-driven growth.

Abstract:Collaborative Learning requires teachers and students to maintain an engaging learning environment at all times. Problems emerge when teachers, notably high school teachers in Pekanbaru, employ learning material that do…
not support this. Teachers' creativity is pushed to constantly update how they present materials and evaluate students' knowledge in order to foster a collaborative and pleasurable learning environment. This community service project will help Pekanbaru high school instructors create collaborative and real-time learning tools. The Community Service Team employed an observation strategy to get a sense of learning at Santa Maria High School, which served as an example school. The proposed solution is technologically based, making use of the Padlet application. The Community Service Team offers training methods on smartphones and computers to help people grasp Padlet. The community effort resulted in a polished Padlet that teachers may use to study with students at any time. It is intended that studying using the Padlet application would boost teacher innovation and student learning results at Santa Maria High School, as well as high schools around Pekanbaru.

and efficient feeding. One of the main problems faced by the group is the difficulty in maintaining optimal water temperature and quality as well as manual feeding management. To overcome this problem, it is necessary to implement Internet of Things (IoT) technology integrated with an Android application. This technology allows monitoring of pond conditions such as water temperature and pH automatically, as well as periodic fish feeding settings. This community service aims to build IoT-based automatic monitoring tools and systems, as well as provide training and mentoring to members of the Jabal Farm Taruna Tani Group in using IoT technology for fish pond management. The implementation method in this activity uses a Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) approach that emphasizes active community participation in all stages of the activity, from problem identification to evaluation and follow-up. With IoT technology, it is expected that fish pond management patterns will become more modern and efficient. This technology can help improve fish farming performance, reduce risks, and facilitate management, thus having a positive impact on the productivity and welfare of farmers.

Abstract:Mackerel (Rastrelliger sp.) is a type of marine fish widely consumed. Several factors influencing it include affordable prices, delicious taste, and the ability to be processed into various dishes. However, mackerel fish…
has a weakness: it quickly declines in quality if not managed properly. In the face of increasing demand, it is crucial to meet the need for fish with an optimal level of freshness. Methods have been used to maintain the freshness of fish, such as salting, freezing, and using plant ingredients. However, the use of natural ingredients from plants often has a low shelf life and can cause a decrease in fish quality. The method used in community service activities in Air Genting village is counselling. Counselling is carried out through the delivery of material, discussions (in the form of questions and answers), and explanations about tools capable of producing ozone. This activity aims to inform the public about technology with the ozone system. This technology can increase the shelf life of mackerel and keep the quality of the fish good and still suitable for consumption.
