PENGEMBANGAN SISTEM ARSIP DIGITAL BERBASIS WEB UNTUK PENINGKATAN EFISIENSI PENGELOLAAN DOKUMEN DI UPTD SPAM DI DINAS PUPR

Stepanus Bulu Dadongo, Trisno, Katarina Yunita Riti
Abstract: The Public Works and Spatial Planning Agency (PUPR) is a strategic institution in the implementation of infrastructure development, spatial planning, and basic public services such as the provision of drinking water, sanitation,… itation, and other regional infrastructure. One of the implementing technical units under the coordination of the PUPR Agency is the Regional Technical Implementation Unit for Drinking Water Supply Systems (UPTD SPAM), which plays a crucial role in ensuring the availability of adequate and sustainable clean water services for the community. In carrying out its duties, the UPTD SPAM produces and handles various administrative and technical documents, ranging from project planning, financial reports, cooperation contracts, operational data, to documentation of activity results. To date, the process of managing these documents has been carried out manually using conventional archiving systems, such as physical recording, storage on shelves or filing cabinets, and distribution of documents through print media. This method is not only time-consuming and costly, but also increases the risk of data loss, damage, and duplication. Based on the research that has been conducted, the researcher draws the following conclusions: A web-based archive management information system that is integrated with a database can help avoid typing errors in the data management process. The storage procedures for incoming and outgoing mail are the same, namely checking, indexing, coding, sorting and placing

HUBUNGAN PERILAKU CUCI TANGAN 6 LANGKAH DENGAN RISIKO CACINGAN PADA SISWA SEKOLAH DASAR NEGERI 24 KOTA BANDA ACEH

Dede Irwana, Yadi Putra, Nurul Amna
Abstract: Worm infection often occurs in areas with high humidity. This is especially true among people with poor hygiene and sanitation. Children are commonly affected because they frequently come in contact with soil. The presence&#8230; ce of worms in the intestine causes iron loss. This can result in malnutrition and anemia. The study aims to determine the correlation between the 6-step hand washing behavior and the risk of worm infection among SDN 24 Banda Aceh students. This study employed a quantitative correlational design with a cross-sectional approach. The population consisted of 162 respondents; the sample was 162 patients selected using a total population technique and proportional sampling. The study took place from June 12 to 18, 2025. The data was analysed using univariate and bivariate methods with the Chi-square test. The results showed a correlation between 6-step hand washing behavior and the risk of worm infection, with a p-value of 0.023 (p<0.05). The researchers urge students to practice proper and routine hand washing at school to prevent and reduce the risk of worm infection.

The Relationship of Non-Food Consumption Expenditures, Early Marriage, Proper Sanitation and Active Posyandu on Stunting in Indonesia 2017-2021

Windarti Lutfia Sukadi, Tri, Ratih, Arivina
Abstract: Stunting describes chronic malnutrition status during growth and development since early life. In the National Medium Term Development Plan (RPJMN) 2020 - 2024, the Indonesian government set a target for the prevalence of&#8230; f stunting in children under five to only 14% in 2024 (Presidential Decree Number 18 of 2020 concerning RPJMN 2020 - 2024). Efforts were made to see the relationship that causes stunting, non-food consumption expenditure, early marriage, proper sanitation and active posyandu. This research is a type of descriptive research with a quantitative approach using logistic regression with data obtained through the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) for 2017-2021. The Wald test results show that the Non-Food Consumption Expenditure variable receives H0, meaning that there is a negative and significant influence between non-food consumption expenditure on stunting. The variables of early marriage, proper sanitation and active posyandu reject H0, which means that in this study there is a positive and significant influence on stunting. The results of the omnibus test (F) show that the calculated f value is greater than the f table (4.951 > 2.43) with a significance level of (0.000 < 0.05), so H0 is rejected, and Ha is accepted. So, it can be concluded that non-food consumption expenditure, early marriage, proper sanitation and active posyandu simultaneously influence the stunting rate.

ENVIRONMENTAL ETHICS AND SOCIAL PRACTICES OF WASTE MANAGEMENT: A STUDY IN KENDARI CITY

Obie, Muhammad
Abstract: Waste management has become one of the most persistent environmental challenges confronting rapidly growing urban areas in Indonesia. While previous studies have primarily explained waste management through technical infrastructure,&#8230; rastructure, environmental awareness, or public policy, relatively little attention has been given to the interaction between environmental ethics and everyday social practices in shaping environmental behaviour. This study aims to examine how environmental ethics are translated into community waste management practices in Kendari City from the perspective of environmental sociology. A qualitative case study approach was employed using field observations, semi-structured interviews with 30 informants representing community members, religious leaders, community leaders, sanitation workers, and officials from the Kendari City Environmental Agency, as well as document analysis. The data were analysed using thematic analysis and interpreted through the analytical perspectives of Environmental Sociology, Social Practice Theory, Public Sphere Theory, and Political Ecology. The findings reveal that environmental ethics constitute an important normative foundation for environmental responsibility; however, their implementation in everyday waste management practices is mediated by socially embedded habitus, community values, institutional capacity, public discourse, and local governance. Waste management behaviour is therefore shaped not only by individual awareness but also by continuous interactions among social norms, institutional arrangements, and collective practices. The study concludes that sustainable urban waste management requires integrated approaches combining environmental ethics, community participation, participatory governance, and institutional collaboration. By integrating environmental ethics with environmental sociology, this study contributes to a broader understanding of the social dimensions of urban waste management and offers practical insights for strengthening community-based environmental governance in Indonesia.

DATA-BASED VILLAGE PLANNING EDUCATION VIA MUSDESUS FOR SETTLEMENT-ENVIRONMENT PROPOSALS IN KALIJAGA

Isnein Akbar, Abdulah Muzakkar
Abstract: Village development planning that is not grounded in data can lead to poorly targeted programs, particularly for settlement-environment issues such as solid waste, sanitation, drainage, and neighborhood space quality. This&#8230; is community service program aimed to improve residents’ literacy in data-based planning and strengthen meaningful participation in formulating settlement-environment program proposals. The activity was conducted in Kalijaga Village, Aikmel Subdistrict, East Lombok Regency, on 17 November 2025 as a special village deliberation meeting (Musyawarah Desa Khusus; Musdesus) involving 75 participants representing village stakeholders, including youth and community organizations (Karang Taruna and the Village Community Resilience Institution/Lembaga Ketahanan Masyarakat Desa; LKMD). A participatory education approach was applied through short lectures, focused discussions, and hands-on proposal drafting using simple minimum data and a standard structure (problem–location–target group–indicators–resource needs). Evaluation was descriptive using facilitator field notes and a proposal-completeness rubric. Of 49 written proposals collected (N=49), 40 (81.6%) met all minimum elements, while 9 (18.4%) were incomplete. The results indicate a shift from general complaints toward more structured proposals with clearer locations, target groups, and basic indicators. Data-based village planning education is a low-cost intervention to improve the quality of community participation outputs and enhance the readiness of proposals for subsequent village planning processes..

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&#8230; 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.

Abstract: ABSTRACT The objective of community partnership program cluster 2 (CPP-C2) is to provide micro and small-scale layer chicken farmers in Tomohon city with business management procedures based on “biosecurity”.  Problems faced&#8230; blems faced by partners, both farm owners and farm workers: 1) lack of knowledge and understanding of the concept and application of biosecurity  2) lack of sanitation application, which increases the risk of diseases emerging and spreading 3) not yet aware that the use of open house system, unfenced farms and no procedures for entering the farm area, are not in accordance with the principles of biosecurity system. The activity was carried out in stages: survey, socialization on the concept and implementation of the 3-zone biosecurity system, provision of disinfectants and examples of regulation for laying hen farming as well as evaluation. The evaluation results show that during the extension activity, out of 8 participants only 2 were actively asking questions, and it turned out they were the farm owners, while the farm workers were passive.  It was found after the outreach activity, that the farm owners or farm workers who were partners had not been implemented the 3-zone biosecurity system, therefore outreach activities regarding biosecurity on poultry farm still need to be provided again to them, so that the concept and application of biosecurity will be truly understood and they would be willing to do so. However, at least 2 farms have prepared signboards with rules for entering the farm area.  The occurrence of outbreaks and pandemics should be a lesson-learned that biosecurity measures are highly relevant to the saying “it is better to prevent than cure”. If, chicken remain healthy, they produce high-quality and safe products, and so, farmers can minimize health costs and maximize profits, even enabling farms owner to expand their businesses scale.  In conclusion, this activity has not been given a significant impact on partner’s farm management because all partners have not been implemented the 3-zone biosecurity system, and it would be better if, all farm owners as decision makers to participate in this kind of activity, as well as the need for synergy between relevant agencies in the livestock sector in Tomohon city and academics with poultry farming business practitioners in an effort to maintain livestock health, poultry communities and maintain food security.

Abstract: This study was conducted to examine the association between exclusive breastfeeding history and stunting among children aged 0–24 months at the Johar Baru District Primary Health Center. A correlational study design with&#8230; th a cross-sectional approach was employed. The study involved 83 mothers with children aged 0–24 months, who were selected through random sampling. Data were obtained via structured interviews using a master table and subsequently analyzed using the chi-square test with a significance level set at 5%.   The findings indicated that the majority of mothers were between 20 and 35 years of age (81.9%), did not have paid employment (68.9%), and had attained secondary to higher levels of education (78.3%). More than half of the respondents reported providing exclusive breastfeeding (56.6%), and most children were classified as not stunted (75.9%). Bivariate analysis revealed a statistically significant association between maternal age and the occurrence of stunting (p = 0.039). However, no significant associations were identified between maternal occupation (p = 0.159), maternal educational attainment (p = 0.203), or exclusive breastfeeding history (p = 0.925) and stunting incidence.   The study concludes that stunting is influenced by multiple interrelated factors, indicating that its prevention cannot rely solely on exclusive breastfeeding. Comprehensive strategies involving sustained nutritional interventions, improved environmental sanitation, and appropriate caregiving practices are essential to effectively reduce stunting. Therefore, health professionals are encouraged to continue promoting exclusive breastfeeding while simultaneously addressing other contributing factors that support optimal child growth and development.

Efektivitas Pengelolaan Kelas pada Masa Pembelajaran Tatap Muka Terbatas di SMAN 6 Sinjai

Andi Fadilah Mutia
Abstract: This study is motivated by changes in the education system due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which have led to the implementation of Limited Face-to-Face Learning (Pembelajaran Tatap Muka Terbatas/PTMT) in schools, thereby requiring&#8230; equiring more adaptive and effective classroom management at SMAN 6 Sinjai. The research problem is how teachers’ classroom management strategies are implemented and the extent of their effectiveness in supporting the learning process under conditions of limited time, interaction, and facilities. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of classroom management during PTMT using a descriptive qualitative approach through observation, interviews, and documentation. The findings indicate that classroom management is categorized as highly effective, with 85% of learning activities implemented as planned, 88% of teachers applying active learning strategies, and 90% of classroom arrangements complying with health protocols, resulting in a 40% reduction in classroom disturbances. Furthermore, 78% of students reported greater comfort in a conducive learning environment, while the utilization of sanitation facilities consistently reached 95%. Although 82% of teachers experienced an increased workload, learning stability was maintained through adaptive strategies and collaboration. The study concludes that the effectiveness of classroom management is determined by the integration of instructional planning, environmental management, and students’ psychosocial adaptation. The novelty of this study lies in the concept of crisis-based adaptive classroom management that simultaneously integrates pedagogical, health, and character-building dimensions, while emphasizing teachers’ dual roles as facilitators and risk managers in the PTMT context. These findings are expected to serve as a reference for developing classroom management practices in secondary schools during crisis and educational transition situations, as well as strengthening more responsive, flexible, and sustainable learning policies aimed at improving student learning outcomes in the current Indonesian educational context.
