Pelatihan Pembuatan Pupuk Organik Cair dari Kotoran Sapi sebagai Upaya Pengurangan Limbah di Desa Petiyintunggal, Kecamatan Dukun, Kabupaten Gresik

Petiyintunggal Village, located on the western border of Gresik Regency, is predominantly inhabited by farmers and livestock breeders. Cattle raising is a common side activity among the residents. The livestock farming in Petiyintunggal Village is managed traditionally, focusing primarily on the sale of fattened livestock for daily needs, without addressing the environmental impact of accumulated cow dung. To address these issues, the UNISDA 2024 Thematic Real Work Lecture team conducted counseling and training on processing cow dung into beneficial products, specifically liquid organic fertilizer. This training was held in Petiyintunggal Village, Dukun District, Gresik Regency, coordinated with local farmer groups and youth organizations (Karang Taruna). The primary objective was to enhance the community's capacity to produce liquid organic fertilizer as an alternative to chemical fertilizers, utilizing cow dung waste for sustainable farming practices. The training outcomes demonstrated a significant increase in participants' knowledge and skills, approximately 80%, in processing cow dung into liquid organic fertilizer, along with positive feedback and high enthusiasm from the participants.

MBSE for Real World Teams

AbstractWith the release of the OMG Systems Modeling Language (SysML) (Object Management Group, 2007) there was a surge of enthusiasm for model‐based systems engineering (MBSE). Expectations were high. Cumbersome, fragmented documents would be completely replaced by coherent, fully integrated models. The models would serve as the “Single Version of the Truth” (later transitioning to models being part of the “Authoratative Source of Truth”).While progress has been made, this utopian vision has largely failed to materialize. Certainly tool and language limitations have been a factor. However, the bigger factor in many communities has been human factors challenges. In our enthusiasm to propagate the MBSE vision, we forgot to perform the most basic systems engineering task: stakeholder analysis. This paper will introduce some of the basic human factors issues that were overlooked. The paper will then discuss three concrete cases in which a community was struggling with the abstract, radical change approach and how the teams involved have modified this approach and tooling to make it more practical and successful for those communities. Finally, the paper will conclude with some recommendations to consider when undertaking the introduction of MBSE methods in a new community.

A GERIATRIC EDUCATION COURSE SPANNING COMMUNITY AND HEALTH CARE ENVIRONMENTS

Abstract To address gaps in the geriatrics-trained workforce, we implemented a Geriatric Resource Certificate (GRC) for interprofessional learners from healthcare and community provider settings. This program combines online self-paced didactics, real-time virtual lectures, and a real-world virtual team care planning experience. The education incorporates the 4Ms of the Age Friendly Framework and spans the geriatric experience from healthy aging through end-of-life. It includes Dementia Friends and ECHO sessions. The goal is to training people from a variety of care settings to be resource people regarding geriatric issues, much like the NICHE program in acute care. We had 37 learners who completed evaluations. Practice settings included ACO, Hospice, Emergency Department, nursing homes, hospitals, primary care, Area Agencies on Aging, and other community providers. Overall, the online didactics were rated an average of 4.53 on a 5 point Likert scale and the real-time lectures were rated an average of 4.41. The average score for “the GRC will help me provide care over the continuum” was 4.59. The average for the real team was 4.07, 4.26 for the ECHO, and 4.45 for Dementia Friends. All learners indicated they would refer others to the GRC. These results indicate that the GRC is an effective method to impart basic geriatric training into communities and raise awareness of resources available to assist older adults in maintaining their independence. In this era of high healthcare workforce turnover and staffing shortages, improving geriatric knowledge by training on-site geriatric resource staff is one way to improve care for older adults.

WHY REAL TEAM COACHING CAN POSITIVELY IMPACT BUSINESS RESULTS USING THE POWER OF COLLABORATION

In this article, the author connects the dots between teams, and the broader necessity to serve and positively impact the environment within which organisations operate. Team coaching, as one of the newest and least researched team development modalities, is defined. What team coaching is NOT, and the conditions for real team coaching to take place, are unraveled, in order that it can serve a team to truly thrive. The differences between teams and groups are explored, as it is essential to the topic. The role of a team coach is distinguished and put into context, of serving a team to transform to become who they aspire to become. In this way, they can fulfil their core purpose and vision in a coherent and values aligned way. The author’s CORE model© for interpersonal team transformation is presented, which can serve as a framework to guide conversations so that they become a real team. A centre point of becoming a real team is collaboration. Real teams and thriving organisations positively impact the world in becoming a place more deserving to inhabit.

Socialization Of The Characteristics Of Oil That Is Used Repeatedly For The People Of Ranah Batahan District

In this activity, food safety outreach was carried out regarding the use of cooking oil for repeated frying. Cooking oil is a triglyceride compound which has a high boiling point. The use of cooking oil in society is often used repeatedly. This means that the chemical content in cooking oil can undergo oxidation and hydrolysis processes so that the quality of the oil becomes damaged. The formation of peroxide compounds means that oil will become a precursor to the formation of an unhealthy condition for those who consume it. Therefore, this socialization was carried out to increase public knowledge. The socialization activities were carried out during real work lecture activities for Andalas University students for the 2023 period. The socialization was carried out using the lecture and question and answer method. As a result of this activity, it is known that there has been an increase in community knowledge, which is indicated by the establishment of very good communication activities between the community and the real work lecture team from Andalas University. It is hoped that this activity will be carried out again with a different food safety topic.

A Multimodal Social Signal Processing Approach to Team Interactions

Social signal processing develops automated approaches to detect, analyze, and synthesize social signals in human–human as well as human–machine interactions by means of machine learning and sensor data processing. Most works analyze individual or dyadic behavior, while the analysis of group or team interactions remains limited. We present a case study of an interdisciplinary work process for social signal processing that can develop automatized measures of complex team interaction dynamics, using team task and social cohesion as an example. In a field sample of 25 real project team meetings, we obtained sensor data from cameras, microphones, and a smart ID badge measuring acceleration. We demonstrate how fine-grained behavioral expressions of task and social cohesion in team meetings can be extracted and processed from sensor data by capturing dyadic coordination patterns that are then aggregated to the team level. The extracted patterns act as proxies for behavioral synchrony and mimicry of speech and body behavior which map onto verbal expressions of task and social cohesion in the observed team meetings. We reflect on opportunities for future interdisciplinary or collaboration that can move beyond a simple producer–consumer model.

Application of the Team Emergency Assessment Measure Scale in undergraduate medical students and interprofessional clinical teams: validity evidence of a Spanish version applied in Chile.

Teamwork is one of the competencies necessary for physicians to work effectively in health systems and is a competency that can be developed with simulation in professionals and medicine students. The Team Emergency Assessment Measurement (TEAM) was created to evaluate the non-technical performance of team members during resuscitation events in real teams. The TEAM scale includes items to assess leadership, teamwork, situational awareness, and task management. An objective evaluation tool in Spanish is valuable for training health professionals at all undergraduate and continuing education levels. This study aimed to generate evidence of the validity of the Team Emergency Assessment Measure (TEAM) in Spanish to measure the performance of medical students and adult, pediatric, and obstetric emergency clinical teams in simulated emergencies as a self-assessment tool. To develop the Spanish version of the instrument, a forward and backward translation process was followed by independent translators, native and fluent in English and Spanish, and a review by a panel of Chilean experts comprising three trained simulation instructors to verify semantics and cultural equivalence. High-fidelity simulations with debriefing were conducted with 5th-year medical students, in which students and instructors applied the Spanish version of the TEAM scale. In the second stage, adult, pediatric, and obstetric emergency management simulations were conducted using the TEAM scale for real clinical teams as a self-assessment tool. By applying the overall TEAM scale to medicine students and clinical teams, Cronbach's alpha was 0.921. For medical students' self-assessment, we obtained Cronbach's alpha of 0.869. No significant differences were found between the overall scores and the scores by dimensions evaluated by instructors and students (p > 0.05). In the case of clinical team training, Cronbach's alpha was 0.755 for adult emergency teams, 0.797 for pediatric emergency teams, and 0.853 for obstetric emergency teams. The validated instrument is adequate for evaluating teamwork in medical student simulations by instructors and peers and for self-assessment in adult, pediatric, and obstetric emergency clinical teams.

The Effect of Downward Social Comparison on Creativity in Organizational Teams, with the Moderation of Narcissism and the Mediation of Negative Affect.

Employee creativity has become an essential element for the survival and success of contemporary organizations in the fast-changing business environment. The increased importance of team systems in the flood of information has increased the attention given to creativity in social relationships. This study adopts social comparison theory to propose a framework that shows how social comparisons of creative ability between team members influence individual creativity. In particular, this study focuses on the downward social comparison that individuals frequently experience in real team situations. We adopted multi-source field data collected from 130 employees and supervisors working in a manufacturing company in South Korea. The moderated mediation hypotheses were tested using hierarchical linear modeling to address the dependence of employees rated by the same supervisor, given that employees are nested within supervisors. The effect of downward social comparison on creativity, as mediated by negative affect, is positively moderated by narcissism. Specifically, the conditional indirect effects of downward social comparison on creativity through negative affect were significant and negative when narcissism was high but insignificant when it was low. This research provides novel insights for researchers and practitioners by offering a theoretical elaboration of the effects of social comparison processes on creativity and providing unique empirical validation for the model in the context of teams in actual organizations.

The Diversity Heuristic: How Team Demographic Composition Influences Judgments of Team Creativity

Despite mixed evidence for the relationship between demographic diversity and creativity, we propose that observers hold a lay belief that demographic diversity increases creativity and apply this lay belief in judgments about teams and their creative work. Across eight preregistered studies (n = 5,530), we find that observers judge teams diverse in terms of race and gender to be more creative than teams homogeneous in terms of race and gender, including in incentive-compatible predictions made about real teams competing in a creativity challenge. We also find that products attributed to demographically diverse teams are evaluated as more creative compared with identical products attributed to demographically homogenous teams. Mediation analyses provide evidence consistent with the notion that people perceive demographic diversity (i.e., social category differences) to be correlated with cognitive diversity (i.e., difference of perspectives), and this belief contributes to attributions of greater creativity to diverse teams and the ideas they generate. We can also turn off the perceived association between demographic diversity and creativity by directly manipulating people’s perceptions of team cognitive diversity. Furthermore, we find evidence of a curvilinear relationship between the proportion of racial minorities or women in a group and judgments of the group’s creativity. Together, our results suggest that the popular uptake of the belief that diversity boosts creativity may impact how creativity is identified in organizational contexts.

Distinction Dynamics: A Form Analysis of Self-Descriptions in Agile Teams

Abstract Teams are the backbone and the most successful form of cooperation in contemporary product development organizations. Based on the agile mindset, many best practices of team organization have emerged. However, real teams do not always follow the blueprints of the methodology. They represent the complexity they face, which becomes evident in a situation where a global pandemic brings about dramatic changes in the contexts they operate in. This study is based on consultations with teams that sought outside support maneuvering their way through this complexity, and it looks for patterns in how they coped. How do teams describe their own journey? How do they set a focus and develop as teams? The study aims to identify and describe functional dynamics of decision-making in teams, to understand how structure and semantics, traditionally seen as separate, are interrelated in their morphogenesis.

Strengthening Product Branding and Marketing Optimization Through Social Media on Bamboo Straw Crafts in Abuan Bangli Village

The distribution of goods and services requires marketing to reach potential customers. The development of internet technology has expanded the marketing of goods and services from traditional to online markets. The bamboo straw craftsmen in Abuan Bangli Village realized that marketing their products online needed to be done to increase the market share of their handicraft products which are currently distributed offline. The National Education University Real Work Lecture Team (KKN) conducted "Strengthening Product Branding and Optimization to Market Bamboo Straw Craft Products in Abuan Bangli Village" for bamboo creative economy actors in Abuan Village who have not or have not used social media optimally as a marketing channel and promotion of bamboo handicraft products. This KKN aims to increase the knowledge of bamboo craftsmen in using social media to support marketing and distribution of bamboo handicraft products directly to customers and sales agents. Social media skills are expected to invite buyers, and increase the income of bamboo craftsmen.

Who is the real team leader? Comparing leadership performance of the team leader and CPR Coach during simulated cardiac arrest

PurposeTo describe the leadership performance of team leaders and CPR Coaches, and to determine if there is a correlation between leadership scores and CPR performance during management of simulated pediatric cardiac arrest events. MethodsThis is a secondary analysis of data from a prior randomized controlled trial. We observed the performance of both team leaders and CPR coaches during the management of an 18-minute simulated cardiac arrest scenario which was run for 20 resuscitation teams comprised of CPR-certified professionals from four pediatric tertiary care centers. CPR Coaches were responsible for providing real-time verbal feedback of CPR performance to compressors. Two raters were trained to use the Behavioral Assessment Tool (BAT) to assess leadership performance of the team leader and CPR Coach. BAT scores of team leaders and CPR coaches were compared and linked with objective CPR performance. ResultsThere was no significant difference between the BAT scores of team leaders and CPR coaches (median score 27/40 vs 28.8/40, p = 0.16). Higher BAT scores of team leaders were significantly associated with higher percentage of excellent CPR (r = 0.52, p = 0.02), while higher BAT scores of CPR coaches were significantly associated with higher chest compression fraction (r = 0.48, p = 0.03). ConclusionsBoth team leaders and CPR coaches have similarly high leadership performance during the management of simulated cardiac arrest. Leadership behaviors were associated with quality of CPR performance.Clinical Trial Registration: Registration ID: NCT02539238; https://www.clinicaltrials.gov.

Upaya Pencegahan Stunting melalui Kegiatan Posyandu Desa Sungai Manau, Kecamatan Kuantan Mudik, Provinsi Riau

Children aged five and under are included in the high-risk category for experiencing impaired growth and physical development if nutritional problems occur. Malnutrition and health problems that commonly occur in children include malnutrition, obesity, and below normal body posture or stunting. One of the efforts that can be made in early detection and prevention of stunting is through Posyandu activities. The University of Riau real work team took part in community service through routine toddler posyandu activities and conducted research to determine the level of knowledge of mothers of toddlers regarding stunting in Sungai Manau village. This service activity is in line with research which aims to find out and increase mother's knowledge about stunting. This activity uses the health education method for mothers with toddlers on August 9, 2022 at the Posyandu in Sungai Manau village. Through this activity it was found that the majority of mothers' knowledge regarding stunting was in the medium category (57%). During the evaluation, it was found that the majority of mothers could answer questions about stunting correctly. We hope that this service activity could be continued with different interventions such as the use of local food resources to overcome stunting in children.

On the Relationship Between Organizational Structure Patterns and Architecture in Agile Teams

Forming members of an organisation into coherent groups or teams is an important issue in any large-scale software engineering endeavour, especially so in agile software development where teams rely heavily on self-organisation and organisational flexibility. But <italic xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">is there a recurrent organisational structure pattern in agile software engineering teams?</i> and if so <italic xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">what does that pattern imply, in terms of software architecture quality?</i> We address these questions using mixed-methods research in industry featuring interviews, surveys, and Delphi studies of real agile teams. In our study of 30 agile software teams we found that, out of seven organisational structure patterns that recur across our dataset, a single organisational pattern occurs over 37% of the time. This pattern: (a) reflects young communities (1-12 months old); (b) disappears in established ones (13+ months); and (c) reflects the highest number of architecture smells reported. Finally, we observe a negative correlation between a proposed organisational measure and architecture smells. On the one hand, these insights may serve to aid architects in designing not only their architectures but also their communities to best support their co-evolution. On the other hand, we observe that organisational structures in software engineering influence much more than simply software architectures, and we expect our results to lay the foundations of more structured and rigorous approaches to organisational structure studies and use in software engineering research and practice.
