Development of an Integrated Hybrid (Manual-Digital) Electronic Medical Record System at Damai Clinic

Rina Rohhi, ayyaf Zufar Robbani, Gian Dwi Sapta
Abstract: The advancement of information technology has accelerated digital transformation in healthcare, particularly through the implementation of Electronic Medical Records (EMRs). However, many healthcare facilities still use… hybrid systems that combine manual and digital record-keeping without proper integration, resulting in inefficient patient data management. This study aims to develop an integrated hybrid Electronic Medical Record system at Damai Clinic to improve healthcare services and patient data management. A descriptive research method with a system development approach was employed through system analysis, problem identification, and system design. The results indicate that the proposed system successfully integrates patient registration, medical examination, pharmacy services, payment, and reporting into a single system. The hybrid implementation allows paper-based records to remain as supporting archives while electronic records become the primary source of patient information. The developed system is expected to improve service efficiency, reduce documentation errors, enhance data security, and support digital transformation in healthcare facilities.

Pemanfaatan data historis melalui visualisasi data mampu memberikan informasi yang lebih komprehensif mengenai karakteristik calon mahasiswa sehingga dapat mendukung pengambilan keputusan dalam penyusunan strategi promosi PMB yang lebih terarah, efektif, dan berbasis data. New student admissions (PMB) promotion is an important factor in increasing the number and quality of prospective students. However, promotional strategies that do not optimally utilize historical data can result in less targeted promotional activities. This study aims to analyze historical PMB data as a basis for developing a more effective promotional strategy in the Information and Computer Technology Department of the Lhokseumawe State Polytechnic. The study uses a descriptive quantitative approach utilizing secondary PMB data for the 2023–2025 period. The analysis was carried out through the stages of data cleaning, data transformation, descriptive statistics, prospective student segmentation, and data visualization using an analytical dashboard. The variables analyzed included study program, school of origin, major of origin of school, sub-district, regency/city, province, admission route, and applicant information sources. The results show that most applicants come from Aceh Province, especially North Aceh Regency and Lhokseumawe City, with a predominance of science graduates and the greatest interest in the Informatics Engineering Study Program. Instagram and websites are the main sources of information for prospective students. The use of historical data through data visualization can provide more comprehensive information regarding the characteristics of prospective students so that it can support decision-making in developing more targeted, effective, and data-based PMB promotion strategies. 

MENINGKATKAN KEMAMPUAN VISUAL PERSEPTUAL ANAK USIA 5-6 TAHUN MELALUI PEMBELAJARAN BERBASIS SMARTBOARD DI TK SARANTAU SASURAMBI

Sikma, Monica, Rio Tri Putra, Sri Suhartika, Ade Marlia
Abstract: Visual perceptual ability is one of the important aspects of cognitive development in early childhood. This ability is related to children’s capacity to recognize, differentiate, interpret, and understand information received… eceived through vision. It includes the recognition of shapes, colors, sizes, patterns, and visual relationships, which are essential for children’s learning readiness. This study aims to improve the visual perceptual abilities of children aged 5–6 years at TK Sarantau Sasurambi through smartboard-based learning. The research employed a Classroom Action Research (CAR) method conducted in several cycles, namely planning, action, observation, and reflection. The research subjects were children aged 5–6 years. The research instruments included observation sheets of visual perceptual abilities (visual discrimination, visual memory, matching, sequencing, spatial relations, and eye–hand coordination), observation sheets on the use of the smartboard, and field notes. The results showed an improvement in visual perceptual abilities from the pre-cycle to Cycle I and Cycle II. Children’s mastery in the pre-cycle reached only 45%, increased to 65% in Cycle I, and reached 88% in Cycle II. The use of smartboards proved effective as it offers interactive and engaging visual learning experiences and facilitates children’s direct manipulation of objects. Therefore, smartboard-based learning is highly effective in improving the visual perceptual abilities of children aged 5–6 years.

TRANSFORMATION OF ACEH TENGGARA COCOA FARMERS THROUGH GAP AND APPLICATION-BASED PRICE INFORMATION SYSTEM

Assauwab, Muhammad Husaini, Deden Sumoharjo, Anuar Ramut, Umaidi
Abstract: Cocoa is a strategic commodity in Southeast Aceh Regency, but farmer productivity and income remain low due to limited implementation of Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) and poor access to price information. This community… ity service activity aims to improve farmers' capacity through an integrated approach that combines improving cocoa cultivation knowledge, strengthening the implementation of GAP, and utilizing real-time cocoa price information applications. The activity was carried out in December 2025 through stages of socialization, technical training, field demonstrations, introduction to price applications, as well as mentoring and evaluation. The results of the activity showed an increase in farmers' knowledge levels from low to medium to high, especially in terms of price information. Initial improvements in GAP adoption were reflected in pruning, fertilization, garden sanitation, pest control, and harvesting and post-harvesting practices that were more in line with standards. Access to price information shifted from dependence on middlemen to the use of applications and market comparisons, which increased farmers' independence in determining the time of sale. The price range difference between farmers and market references confirms that limited information weakens farmers' bargaining position. Overall, the integrated approach has proven relevant in improving farming efficiency and strengthening the basis for increasing cocoa farmers' income, although the sustainability of the impact requires continued assistance and strengthening of farmer institutions.

PELATIHAN PERCAKAPAN BAHASA INGGRIS SEHARI-HARI MAHASISWA PROGRAM STUDI PENDIDIKAN ANAK USIA DINI MELALUI INFORMATION GAP ACTIVITIES

Jamiluddin, Sriati Usman, Fadhila Zamzam, Zarkiani Hasyim, Muh. Akbar Eisemring
Abstract: Pelaksanaan pengabdian ini didasari pada beberapa hasil penelitian sebelumnya yang mengungkapkan bahwa pembelajaran bahasa Inggris terhadap peserta didik kurang menggembirakan karena para peserta didik menganggap bahwa pelajaran… elajaran bahasa Inggris itu sulit dipahami dan dimengerti. Hasil penelitian yang dilakukan oleh Tambunsaribu, G. et.al (2021) mengungkapkan bahwa faktor penyebab masalah internal peserta didik itu sendiri dimana 77 % respondent yang mengatakan bahasa Inggris itu dianggap membingungkan dan sulit dipelajari.  Dua puluh dua percent (22 %) respondent mengatakan materi berbicara (speaking) sulit dipelajari. Selain dari pada temuan penelitian di atas, hasil pengamatan pengabdi sendiri pada beberapa mahasiswa pada program studi di lingkungan Fakultas Keguruan dan Ilmu Pendidikan, menemukan bahwa mahasiswa mengalami kesulitan mempelajari dan memahami bahasa Inggris, mungkin disebabkan oleh  belum berkesesuaian strategi atau teknik pembelajaran bahasa Inggris yang mendorong mahasiswa untuk mengetahuinya dan merasa senang belajar. Oleh karena itu, melalui kesempatan ini, pengabdi melakukan pengabdian dalam bentuk pelatihan yaitu menawarkan suatu pendekatan atau teknik yang dapat membantu peserta didik atau mahasiswa mengurangi kebingungan dan kesulitan yang dirasakan selama ini. Pengabdi menawarkan pelatihan dengan menggunakan salah satu pembelajaran kooperatif dalam kelompok kecil, yaitu berpasang-pasangan dalam mengemukakan ide, pikiran masing-masing sesuai dengan apa yang dikehendaki oleh pasangannya. Hasil penelitian Susanti dan Linaris (2021) mengungkap bahwa siswa yang menggunakan metode diskusi kelompok kecil memiliki lebih banyak kesempatan untuk berkontribusi dalam diskusi kelas. Selanjutnya hasil penelitian mereka, juga mengungkap bahwa salah satu strategi atau teknik yang dapat membantu siswa dalam meningkatkan keterampilan berkomunikasi adalah melalui diskusi kelompok kecil. Temuan-temuan penelitian dan hasil pengamatan tersebut, membuat para pengabdi akan memperaktikkan salah satu strategi atau teknik diskusi kelompok kecil, yaitu terdiri dari 2 (dua) orang saling bercakap-cakap (berbicara) sesuai dengan tema bahasa Inggris yang diberikan. Teknik pembelajaran dalam pelatihan ini adalah ‘Information Gap Activities (IGA)’ dimana masing-masing mahasiswa mempunyai peran. Oleh karena itu, tahapan pelaksanaan dalam pelatihan ini dimulai dari pengumpulan bahan pelatihan berupa topik-topik percakapan bahasa Inggris yang sesuai dengan kebutuhan mahasiswa, kemudian mahasiswa berlatih dengan memberikan kesempatan yang sama kepada masing-masing pasangan untuk memperaktikkannya sesuai peran masing-masing, dan pada akhir pelatihan, instruktur (pengabdi) memberikan penguatan tentang kegiatan yang telah dilakukan untuk menambah wawasan tentang apa yang telah diperaktikkan. Melalui pelatihan ini diharapkan dapat meningkatkan rasa ingin tahu mahasiswa, menambah pengetahuan bahasa Inggris, sehingga dengan sadar mempraktikkan sendiri bersama temannya melalui percakapan bahasa Inggris yang sehari-hari mahasiswa gunakan dan alami.

PENYUSUNAN LAPORAN KEUANGAN UMKM BERDASARKAN SAK EMKM: STUDI KASUS TOKO AL HUDA KEBUMEN

Luthfia, Arawindha Delphin, Suryani, Rista Ayu, Sumaryanto
Abstract:   Most micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in Indonesia have not prepared financial statements that comply with applicable standards, posing risks to inaccurate business decisions and limiting opportunities to access… o access funding. This study aims to assist Al Huda Plastic and Baking Supplies Store in Kebumen in preparing financial statements in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards for Micro, Small, and Medium Entities (SAK EMKM). This topic was chosen due to the importance of accounting literacy in managing small businesses, as the understanding of MSME actors regarding accounting standards is still relatively low. This research uses a descriptive qualitative method with a case study approach, utilizing observation, semi-structured interviews, and documentation as data collection techniques. The results show that Al Huda Store has been recording its finances manually. However, these records do not yet cover the components of financial statements required by SAK EMKM, such as the income statement, statement of financial position, and notes to the financial statements. The preparation of financial statements based on these standards has been carried out and demonstrates more accurate and structured financial information. In conclusion, the implementation of financial statements based on SAK EMKM in MSMEs plays a very important role in increasing accountability and quality in business decision-making. The results of this study also provide practical examples that can be used as references and re-applied by other MSMEs with similar characteristics

PENERAPAN SISTEM INFORMASI PELAYANAN PERIZINAN TERPADU (SIPINTER) DI DINAS PENANAMAN MODAL DAN PELAYANAN TERPADU SATU PINTU KABUPATEN TANGERANG

Nur Annisaa, Riny Handayani
Abstract: Abstract This study aims to analyze the implementation of the Integrated Licensing Service Information System (SIPINTER) at the Investment and One-Stop Integrated Services Office (DPMPTSP) of Tangerang Regency. The research… earch is grounded in issues of low institutional responsiveness in following up on complaints, mismatches between actual service completion time and the Standard Operating Procedure (SOP), and uneven public socialization of the system. This study employs a descriptive method with a qualitative approach, using 3-dimensional e-government success model, namely Support, Capacity, and Value, as the analytical framework. Data were collected through field observation, regulatory documentation review, and in-depth interviews. The findings indicate that the Support dimension is backed by strong political will, allocated funding, and multi-channel socialization that has driven growth in registered users, though technical assistance responsiveness outside office hours remains weak. The Capacity dimension shows adequate human resources and staff competence, but the technological infrastructure remains prone to disruptions such as OTP delivery failures and server downtime. The Value dimension has produced tangible benefits in efficiency and service transparency, yet this value is undermined by document processing delays exceeding SOP standards, driven by a "digital red tape" practice among internal verification officers. This study recommends strengthening online technical support and adopting contingency resource mechanisms to improve service. Keywords: SIPINTER, e-government, licensing service, DPMPTSP, Support-Capacity-Value model   Abstrak Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis Penerapan Sistem Informasi Pelayanan Perizinan Terpadu (SIPINTER) di Dinas Penanaman Modal dan Pelayanan Terpadu Satu Pintu (DPMPTSP) Kabupaten Tangerang. Latar belakang penelitian ini didasari oleh masih rendahnya responsivitas instansi dalam menindaklanjuti laporan, ketidaksesuaian durasi penyelesaian layanan dengan Standar Operasional Prosedur (SOP), serta sosialisasi yang belum merata kepada masyarakat. Penelitian menggunakan metode deskriptif dengan pendekatan kualitatif, dengan analisis berlandaskan model keberhasilan e-government tiga dimensi yaitu Support, Capacity, dan Value. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa dimensi Support telah didukung oleh political will yang kuat, alokasi anggaran, dan sosialisasi multikanal yang mendorong pertumbuhan pengguna terdaftar, namun masih lemah dalam responsivitas bantuan teknis di luar jam kerja. Dimensi Capacity menunjukkan kecukupan sumber daya manusia dan kompetensi petugas, tetapi infrastruktur masih rentan mengalami gangguan teknis seperti kegagalan pengiriman OTP dan server down. Dimensi Value menghasilkan manfaat nyata berupa efisiensi dan transparansi pelayanan, namun nilainya terdegradasi akibat keterlambatan penyelesaian dokumen yang melampaui SOP, yang dipicu oleh praktik birokrasi digital (digital red tape) di tingkat verifikator internal. Penelitian ini merekomendasikan penguatan dukungan teknis daring serta penerapan mekanisme kontingensi sumber daya untuk meningkatkan layanan. Kata Kunci: SIPINTER, e-government, pelayanan perizinan, DPMPTSP, model Support-Capacity-Value
