Traditional teaching methods are being supplemented and, in some cases, replaced by innovative tools that promote more interactive and engaging learning experiences. However, in many rural and underserved areas, access to such resources remains limited. Teachers of four Elementary Schools in Buenavista, Guimaras faced the dual challenge of navigating limited digital infrastructure and the increasing demand to incorporate technology into their teaching practices. In addressing the challenge, a comprehensive training-workshop on the use of Canva, empowering teachers to create visually engaging and interactive learning materials was conducted using the Pre and Post Self-Assessment. Results revealed that 23 of 56 participants rated themselves to have No Knowledge or Skills and after the community service, the notable results manifest the none of the participants remain to have No Knowledge or Skills rather, 27 of 56 participants elevated to have Fair Knowledge or Skills in using the Canva Platform as Educational Technology. This result is evident that the Community of Educators continues to strive for the betterment of the Educational Landscape of the Nation.</p> <p style="font-weight: 400;"> </p> 2025-06-27T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 JPMI (Jurnal Pengabdian Masyarakat Inovatif) https://jpmi-fmipa.unpak.ac.id/index.php/JPMI/article/view/160 Empowering High School Teachers with Computer Systems and Networking through Skills-Training in the Case of Supang National High School, Philippines 2025-05-19T06:54:55+00:00 Lea P.

A Significant Improvement in the participants’ knowledge and skills revealed after the Pre and Post Training assessments. Initially, 36 of the 54 participants demonstrated no prior knowledge or skills in CSS and after the training, none of the participants remain at this initial level, with all achieving higher scores on the post-training assessment especially 29 of the 54 participants have acquired a lot of knowledge and skills. This training demonstrates the effectiveness of targeted professional development in addressing the skills gap among ICT teachers and has the potential to improve the quality of CSS instruction and enhance student learning outcomes.</p> 2025-06-27T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 JPMI (Jurnal Pengabdian Masyarakat Inovatif) https://jpmi-fmipa.unpak.ac.id/index.php/JPMI/article/view/154 Intensification of catfish cultivation at Pokdakan Baraya in Kotabatu Village, Bogor Regency 2025-05-16T18:02:34+00:00 Uswatun Hasanah uswatunhasanah1719@gmail.com Linda Jati Kusumawardani linda.kusumawardani@unpak.ac.id Yulian Syahputri yulian.syahputri@unpak.ac.id Ade Heri Mulyati adeheri.mulyati@unpak.ac.id Diana Widiastuti diana.widiastuti@unpak.ac.id Siti Warnasih siti.warnasih@unpak.ac.id <p>Kotabatu Village, located in Bogor District, is home to several Fish Cultivator Groups (Pokdakan), one of which is Pokdakan Baraya, focused on cultivating catfish. Based on a focus group discussion conducted by the Pakuan University Implementation Team, Pokdakan Baraya faces challenges related to low income, high production costs, and the risks involved in traditional fish farming practices. In response, the team proposed the introduction of the Biofloc system for fish cultivation. The service methods included a comprehensive survey to assess the conditions and needs of the target community, followed by focus group discussions (FGD). The next phase involved outreach by the Pakuan University service team, employing knowledge-sharing methods, case studies, and training on the biofloc technology. To evaluate the impact, regular monitoring and evaluation processes were implemented, which included counseling, pond construction, seed distribution, nursery establishment, and intensive catfish rearing using the biofloc system. As a result of the biofloc system’s adoption, pond productivity increased by <strong>1.8%</strong>, and the harvest time was reduced by <strong>15 days</strong>. Additionally, the knowledge of Pokdakan Baraya members regarding fish cultivation technology grew by <strong>60%</strong>, and their income saw an <strong>81% increase</strong> from the sale of the catfish. The successful implementation of this system demonstrates significant improvements in the efficiency, productivity, and economic stability of the community.</p> 2025-06-30T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 JPMI (Jurnal Pengabdian Masyarakat Inovatif) https://jpmi-fmipa.unpak.ac.id/index.php/JPMI/article/view/157 Artificial Intelligence Application Usage Training: ChatGPT, Gamma, and Bing Image Creator In SMK Taman Siswa Bogor Students 2025-06-23T08:01:41+00:00 Dewi Primasari dewi.primasari@uika-bogor.ac.id Nurul Kamilah nurul.kamilah@uika-bogor.ac.id Erwin Hermawan rwin.gfm@gmail.com Freza Riana freza.riana@uika-bogor.ac.id Gibtha Fitri Laxmi gibtha.fitri.laxmi@uika-bogor.ac.id Iksal Yanuarsyah iksal.yanuarsyah@uika-bogor.ac.id Sahid Agustian Hadjimartsu shudjimartsu@uika-bogor.ac.id Puspa Eosina puspa.eosina@uika-bogor.ac.id <p>The development of artificial intelligence technology has opened up new opportunities in the world of education, especially for vocational high school students who need digital skills to compete in the era of the industrial revolution 4.0. However, the implementation of this technology still faces challenges such as low digital literacy and limited infrastructure. This study aims to provide training on artificial intelligence applications (ChatGPT, Gamma, and Bing Image Creator) in improving the digital competence of SMK Taman Siswa Bogor students. The training method uses a participatory approach with three main stages: preparation (needs analysis, material preparation), implementation (theoretical training, direct practice, and case studies), and evaluation (pre-test, post-test, and interview). Participants consisted of 18 students and 2 teachers. Data analysis was carried out quantitatively (statistical tests). The results showed a significant increase in understanding the concept of artificial intelligence (from 32.4% to 78.6%) and mastery of applications (82% for ChatGPT, 79% Gamma, 71% Bing Image Creator). In addition to technical aspects, 88% of participants reported increased motivation to learn and 41% showed interest in technology-based careers. Key challenges included limited infrastructure (23% network issues) and varying participant abilities, which were successfully addressed through differentiated learning approaches and the use of personal devices.</p> 2025-06-30T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 JPMI (Jurnal Pengabdian Masyarakat Inovatif) https://jpmi-fmipa.unpak.ac.id/index.php/JPMI/article/view/165 Utilization of Butterfly Pea Flowers for Food Applications with Antioxidant Content in Ciparigi Village, North Bogor District, Bogor City 2025-06-23T19:16:14+00:00 Farida Nuraeni farida.nuraeni50@gmail.com Tri Aminingsih amitria16@gmail.com <p><em> </em>Ciparigi Village is one of the Villages in the North Bogor District, Bogor City, West Java, with an area of 160.72 Ha. The population of Ciparigi Village is 18,324 people consisting of 9,092 men (49.62) and 9,232 women (50.38) with a total of 4,909 Family Heads. The population density in this Village in 2008 was 11,401 people per km2. When viewed from the activities of each working group in Ciparigi Village, it is still very small, this is probably due to the lack of delivery of various information or development of its members' skills in the form of counseling and training to the community. The solution offered by the University in this case the Chemistry Study Program, FMIPA, Pakuan University, is to provide counseling on the use of butterfly pea flowers to be applied to several food preparations. The lack of public knowledge, especially the family empowerment and welfare group in Ciparigi Village, in processing and optimizing the potential of butterfly pea flowers needs to be improved through socialization and training. The output targets to be achieved include publication in the LPPM Journal of Pakuan University, publication in the mass media, and increasing skills in making food products with butterfly pea flowers. The bright blue color of butterfly pea flowers is very attractive and easy to consume, mothers can produce butterfly pea flower syrup, butterfly pea flower tea and butterfly pea flower pudding. Butterfly pea flowers contain various active compounds that are beneficial for health, such as: anthocyanins - natural pigments that function as antioxidants to protect body cells from damage caused by free radicals, flavonoids-compounds that can help reduce inflammation and boost the immune system, cyclic peptides-Known to have antimicrobial and anticancer properties, phenolic acids-play a role in maintaining heart health and reducing the risk of chronic diseases.</p> 2025-06-30T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 JPMI (Jurnal Pengabdian Masyarakat Inovatif) https://jpmi-fmipa.unpak.ac.id/index.php/JPMI/article/view/166 Teachers' Understanding in Implementing Liveworksheets in Learning (E-LKPD) 2025-06-23T19:47:41+00:00 Siti Chodijah siti.chodijah@unpak.ac.id Rina Rosdiana rinarosdiana0170@gmail.com Diva Aulia Fahira ⁠fahiradiva86@gmail.com Linda Yunia Lestari lindayunia196@gmail.com <p>This community service aims to improve the digital competence of teachers at SMAN 1 Sukaraja in developing interactive student worksheets using the <em>Liveworksheets</em> platform. Electronic student worksheets (E-LKPD) are digital worksheets used for interactive discussions. Through E-LKPD, teachers will find it easier to check answers directly and reduce paper use. The method consists of training and the use of pretest-posttest instruments. A total of 19 teachers participated, with 15 Likert-scale indicators used to assess their understanding before and after the training. The results showed an increase in the average score from 4.48 in the pretest to 4.88 in the posttest. This indicates a significant improvement in teachers’ understanding of <em>Liveworksheets</em> for E-LKPD development. It is recommended to conduct follow-up training integrating the platform into broader learning systems.</p> 2025-06-30T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 JPMI (Jurnal Pengabdian Masyarakat Inovatif) https://jpmi-fmipa.unpak.ac.id/index.php/JPMI/article/view/169 Revitalizing MSMEs in the Digital Age: Strengthening Brand Identity and Digital Payment Ecosystem at Siomay Batagor Tirtayasa Business 2025-06-27T09:45:44+00:00 Eva Annisa annisaeva855@gmail.com Anggun Merlyana anggunmerlyana02@gmail.com Dhiwa Abiyu Alfattah dhiwaabiu.lpg234@gmail.com Iman Jaya Gea imanjayagea090602@gmail.com Resha Moniyana Putri resha.moniyana@feb.unila.ac.id Arif Darmawan arfi.darmawan@feb.unila.ac.id <p>Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) serve as vital contributors to national economic growth, especially in terms of employment creation and community empowerment. Despite this potential, many MSMEs continue to face barriers in brand development, digital marketing, and the adoption of modern financial technologies. This community service program was designed to provide practical solutions for the Siomay Batagor Tirtayasa MSMEs in Sukabumi, Bandar Lampung City, focusing on three main strategies: enhancing brand visibility through promotional banner design, implementing QRIS-based digital payment systems, and providing digital marketing training via social media. As a result, the business experienced increased visibility, marked by a significant rise in new customers just two days after the banner installation, indicating the strong influence of professional branding. The implementation of QRIS also made the transaction process smoother, with 30% of transactions in the first week conducted digitally, reflecting improved customer convenience and trust. Positive customer responses further supported the impact of these changes, especially among younger consumers who preferred cashless payments and easily accessible product information. The business owner also showed increased awareness and confidence in managing digital tools independently. This program demonstrates that even simple and participatory interventions can significantly enhance MSMEs competitiveness in the digital age. For further research, this approach can be developed through deeper digital literacy training, integration into marketplace platforms, or partnerships with local government to scale up the impact on other MSMEs.</p> 2025-06-30T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 JPMI (Jurnal Pengabdian Masyarakat Inovatif)
