Peningkatan Kemampuan Operasi Hitung Siswa Kelas VII Melalui Program Kelas Numerasi SMPN 16 Mataram

Numeracy skills are fundamental abilities that every student must possess to understand mathematical concepts. Indonesia ranks 74th out of 79 countries in terms of numeracy proficiency, indicating the low ability of students to comprehend basic mathematical concepts and solve numeracy-based problems. According to the 2024 National Assessment results, the majority of students in this region fall into the low category for numeracy literacy. This is further supported by data from SMPN 16 Mataram, where field observations reveal that many students struggle with mastering basic arithmetic operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, which are foundational for understanding more advanced mathematical concepts. Therefore, this community service aims to help students develop skills in understanding and operating basic algebraic concepts, such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of algebraic expressions. This service is conducted at SMPN 16 Mataram, located in Mataram city, with the participants being 23 students from class VII of SMP in Mataram. The data used in this service activity is sourced from the implementation of the Madrasah Indonesia Competency Assessment (AKM) guidance activity to improve students' literacy and numeracy competencies at SMPN 16 Mataram, conducted by 7th grade mathematics teacher. The evaluation of the activity was done through interviews with both the teacher and the students of grade 7th. The results of this activity show a significant improvement in the numeracy skills of students in algebraic arithmetic operations at SMPN 16 Mataram, class VII. This improvement is measurable, with the average score initially at 40, which then increased to 70 after the implementation of the program or community service activities. This indicates that students who previously had difficulty understanding and mastering algebraic arithmetic operations, such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division with variables or algebraic expressions, made significant progress after being given guidance and practice. Therefore, the addition of numeracy-focused programs is effective in helping students solve problems.

Innovation in The Use of Organic Waste for Biobattery and Biogas Production at TPS3R Lamongan

Organic waste that accumulates in the 3R Waste Processing Site (TPS3R) environment needs to be utilized as well as possible. The purpose of this community service activity is to utilize energy from organic waste as the main raw material for making biobattery and biogas. The final result of this community service is a tool that can convert energy from organic waste to electricity (biobattery) and produce gas (biogas). The community service method uses socialization and technology application workshops by assembling tools and materials. Biobattery and biogas equipment, if operated every day, can increase the utilization of organic waste by 17 kg, with 5 kg for biobattery and 12 kg for biogas. Biobattery cells containing around 100 mL of organic waste can produce a maximum voltage of 0.9 Volts and a maximum electric current of 6 mA. Biogas itself requires a sorting process and a fermentation process whose time is adjusted to the presence or absence of organic waste stock at TPS3R. The initial Biogas Place (Digester) requires 600 kg of organic waste. This community service work is expected to inspire the community, especially the Sekar Manfaat Sekaran Lamongan TPS3R Team, to better manage the waste in their surroundings.

Implementation of rural provider-to-provider telehealth in country Western Australia: a retrospective observational analysis via the RE-AIM framework

BackgroundRural provider-to-provider telehealth is growing globally. It is used to both facilitate equitable access to specialist healthcare services for those living in rural and remote areas and provide support to place-based providers. There is limited research on the implementation of these services, especially in an emergency or inpatient hospital setting. The Western Australia Country Health Service (WACHS) Command Centre is one such example. First implemented in 2012, the Command Centre services a geographical area covering 2.55 million square kilometres, a population of approximately 550,000, and provides five clinical streams including Emergency, Mental Health Emergency, Midwifery and Obstetrics Emergency, Inpatient, and Palliative Care Afterhours Telehealth Services.ObjectivesThis study aimed to evaluate the implementation and access of rural provider-to-provider telehealth in country Western Australia, for the years 2012 to 2023.MethodsA retrospective observational analysis was conducted of all patient contacts managed by clinical telehealth streams of the Command Centre, between 31 August 2012 and 31 December 2023. Utilising descriptive statistics, analyses was informed by the expanded Reach, Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation, Maintenance (RE-AIM) Framework and Implementation Outcomes Framework (IOF) definitions.ResultsOver the near 12-year period, a total of 215,965 service contacts were analysed from the five Command Centre clinical streams. There was large variation in the reach and adoption of services across regions, sites, and health facility types, however service scope and activity has increased steadily over time (maintenance). 95 of the 103 WACHS-managed sites had utilised Command Centre clinical telehealth services. The Command Centre has seen an increase in the proportion of clinical telehealth services provided to the most disadvantaged populations, demonstrating improved equity of access (effectiveness) over time.ConclusionThere is a steady expansion in the availability of provider-to-provider clinical telehealth services delivered by the WACHS Command Centre across country WA, but with wide variability of usage depending on region, site, and health facility type. The results of this study show there is a need to understand the contextual factors influencing the adoption, implementation, and sustainability of the service.
