This research is motivated by the presence of students who are less actively involved in learning activities, feel afraid or embarrassed when having to appear in front of the class, and show anxiety when interacting with peers and teachers1. This problem indicates low self-confidence that can hinder students' academic potential and personal development. This study aims to determine whether there is a significant influence of providing classical guidance services with the snakes and ladders game media on increasing the self-confidence of 5th grade students at UPT SDN 01 Limo Kaum.

The research method used is quantitative with the type of experimental research. This study uses a One Group Pre-test Post-test design. This method is carried out by giving an initial test (pre-test) before treatment and a final test (post-test) after treatment in one experimental group. This aims to measure the extent of the influence of the actions given to students. The population in this study were 20 fifth-grade students at UPT SDN 01 Limo Kaum, with a research sample of 20 fifth-grade students selected using a random sampling technique. Data were collected through a self-confidence scale consisting of 40 statement items and analyzed using a t-test and SPSS data processing.

The results showed a significant increase in self-confidence scores after the treatment. The average pre-test score of 13.04 increased to 16.86 in the post-test. Based on the hypothesis test, the calculated t value was greater than the t table, thus rejecting the null hypothesis H0 and accepting the alternative hypothesis Ha. Therefore, it can be concluded that classical tutoring services using the snakes

School Literacy in Application-Based Learning Practices

Thu, 02 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0700

The limited use of digital technology in the learning process poses a challenge to strengthening the literacy culture in elementary schools. This situation stems from teachers' limited competence in utilizing innovative and interactive learning applications. This community service initiative aims to enhance teachers' competence in using digital-based learning applications to strengthen school literacy practices. The project employed the Participatory Action Research (PAR) method, comprising stages of needs identification, planning, training implementation, mentoring, monitoring, and evaluation. Participants included elementary school teachers who received training on using Wordwall, Gamma, Prezi, and DeepSeek applications for instructional purposes and the development of teaching materials. The results indicate that the training and mentoring successfully improved the teachers' knowledge, skills, and confidence in integrating digital technology into the learning process. Most teachers successfully implemented at least one learning application in their classrooms—specifically Wordwall for assessment, Gamma and Prezi for material presentation, and DeepSeek as a reference for developing teaching materials. The implementation of these digital applications also positively impacted student interaction and learning motivation by fostering a more interactive, engaging, and meaningful learning experience. Thus, this community service program has proven effective in supporting the strengthening of school literacy culture while driving the transformation toward innovative learning suited to the demands of the digital era

This research is motivated by the phenomenon of students who lack an understanding of their self-potential (interests, talents, and abilities) in determining future career goals. This study aims to examine the significant influence of classical guidance in improving the career development of class XI F2 students at SMAN 1 Rambatan. The research method employed is quantitative research with an experimental type and a one-group pre-test post-test design. The population of this study consists of 29 students from class XI F2 at SMAN 1 Rambatan. The sampling technique used was total sampling, involving all 29 students. The research instrument used was a career development scale, which was validated with 48 question items. The results showed that there is a significant influence of classical guidance in improving students' career development.

This is evident from the overall hypothesis testing where the alternative hypothesis (Ha) was accepted and the null hypothesis (Ho) was rejected. It was found that the trait and factor technique in classical guidance successfully improved students' career development at SMAN 1 Rambatan. Furthermore, career development scores showed an increase; the pre-test total score was 2,594 (average 89.44), which increased after treatment (post-test) to a total score of 2,938 (average 101.31).

Islamic-Based Group Counseling towards the Realization of a Sakinah Family: Mentoring for Mothers in the Family Empowerment and Welfare Program of Puti Bungsu, Nagari Tabek

The family serves as a fundamental pillar in building a harmonious and prosperous society. However, modern challenges such as economic pressures, permissive social environments, and a lack of religious understanding often hinder the creation of a sakinah family (a family characterized by tranquility, love, and mercy). This community service initiative aims to enhance the understanding and skills of the "Puti Bungsu" PKK (Family Welfare Empowerment) women in Nagari Tabek regarding the construction of harmonious families grounded in Islamic values, utilizing a group counseling approach. The project employed Participatory Action Research (PAR) with a qualitative-participatory methodology, involving 20–30 participants in a series of lectures, interactive discussions, and group counseling sessions. The results indicate an improvement in participants' understanding of the sakinah family concept, the importance of effective communication, and strategies for resolving domestic conflicts in a positive, faith-based manner. Participants demonstrated enthusiasm and active engagement, particularly during experience-sharing sessions. Group counseling proved effective in providing emotional and social support for participants as they navigate family challenges. The initiative recommends the implementation of ongoing mentoring programs covering in-depth topics such as child-rearing, family mental health, and spiritual strengthening to support the realization of.

Tue, 30 Jun 2026 00:00:00 +0700

This Community Service (PKM) activity aims to enhance the competence of Biology teachers in the Tanah Datar Regency Subject Teacher Forum (MGMP) in designing innovative digital instruction to support scientific literacy and students' readiness for the Academic Ability Test (TKA). The main problems of the partners were low technology utilization in teaching, limitations in developing assessments based on scientific literacy and Higher Order Thinking Skills, and the suboptimal role of the MGMP as a professional learning community. The activity employed the Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD) approach incorporating the stages of discovery, dream, design, define, and destiny integrated with hands-on training and collaborative mentoring. Held on December 17, 2025, at SMAN 1 Sungayang, the event involved 16 Biology teachers as participants. Results showed a significant improvement in teachers' understanding of scientific literacy and the TKA, evidenced by a rise in average scores from pre-test 62% to 85% on the post-test. Furthermore, there was an enhancement in digital pedagogical competence, with 90% of participants successfully integrating technology into instruction such as utilizing digital platforms, developing interactive media, and creating HOTS based assessments. The instructional products generated included digital learning kits, instructional videos, and TKA aligned test items, with 75% of these meeting high quality criteria. This program increased the participation of the teacher and strengthened the role of the MGMP as a sustainable professional learning community.
