2024-06-04T14:12:09+07:00

Tari Dolalak is a traditional folk art from Purworejo that incorporates a blend of dance movements, musical accompaniment, and choral singing. It can be performed by both men and women, either in groups or as pairs. The Universitas Gadjah Mada Community Empowerment Learning Team (KKN-PPM UGM) discovered that the youngsters of Awu-Awu State Elementary School (SDN) expressed a keen interest in learning and practicing Tari Dolalak. Nevertheless, there are restrictions on accessing it due to the school's lack of organised extracurricular activities. Consequently, the team endeavoured to address the children's requirements by collaborating with Tut Wuri Dance Studio, as dance is a means of self-expression and has the potential to impact an individual's subjective well-being. This study employs descriptive qualitative methodologies and utilises descriptive analysis to examine the data, specifically focusing on the various aspects of Children Subjective Well Being. These aspects encompass positive emotions, negative emotions, satisfaction with specific subjects, and overall life satisfaction. Tari Dolalak serves as a medium for children to comprehend positive and negative emotions, including happiness, comfort, courage to perform, sadness, disappointment, and anger. This enables them to cultivate supportive and communicative relationships with their peers, trainers, and the UGM KKN-PPM team. Additionally, dance training empowers children to identify and explore their needs and interests.

Promosi Kesehatan Mata melaui Kegiatan Skrining Mata pada Siswa SMP di Kecamatan Wedung, Demak

2024-06-04T14:11:59+07:00

The eyes play an important role in a student's life. When eye problems occur, there can be a decrease in visual acuity, which can impact the student's quality of life. This can be characterized by blurry eyes when looking at the blackboard or looking far away. Student activities often involve prolonged staring at close objects, such as reading, doing assignments, or using devices such as smartphones and laptops. Without realizing it, these habits become a risk factor for a student to experience refractive error in the form of myopia, or nearsightedness. Students who experience myopia often do not realize it, so as an effort to maintain eye health, it is necessary to conduct eye screening to find out whether students experience refractive disorders or not, including in Wedung Subdistrict which is the location of KKN-PPM UGM unit JT-13. In order to carry out community service, eye screening is carried out for junior high school students. Located in 4 junior high schools in Wedung Sub-district, visual acuity (visus) was measured using the Snellen chart. A total of 300 junior high school students were examined, 55 of whom had decreased visual acuity. After each examination, students were educated on how to maintain eye health. In students with decreased visual acuity, risk factors were explored. This article is designed to describe how the eye health screening was conducted, the condition of some junior high school students with decreased visual acuity, and the risk factors that may cause refractive errors. Data collection was done by listing the results of each school's visus examination and history taking after the examination. The results of the visual acuity examination were analyzed using a descriptive quantitative method, while the interview data were analyzed using a qualitative method. Eye screening in junior high school students is expected to be a health promotion tool for both students with refractive errors and those without, as a reminder to maintain their eye health. For students with refractive errors, the screening can be a prelude to further examination so that students get immediate treatment, which can be in the form of refractive correction with the use of glasses, so that the refractive error that occurs doesn't getting worse.

2024-06-04T14:11:29+07:00

Water is an undeniable essence of life, serving as a fundamental need for all living organisms on our planet. Its importance extends beyond various ecosystems, playing a vital role in sustaining plants, animals, and humans. From providing nourishment to plants to supplying hydration to livestock, water plays a fundamental role in ensuring food security and supporting agricultural efforts. Moreover, water serves as the foundation for industrial processes, facilitating production across various sectors. Beyond its utilitarian value, water holds significant ecological importance, contributing to biodiversity conservation and preservation of natural habitats. Freshwater reservoirs serve as the primary source to meet various needs, including drinking and sanitation. However, it is crucial to acknowledge the challenges faced during drought seasons. Drought poses a serious threat not only disrupting water supplies for human and agricultural needs but also having broad impacts on ecosystems and environmental sustainability. These conditions can lead to significant economic losses, damaging agricultural yields, and even disrupting food supplies. Therefore, this paper aims to address the challenges posed by drought, particularly in the region of Padukuhan Guyangan Kidul, Kalurahan Mertelu, Kecamatan Gedangsari, Kabupaten Gunungkidul, by exploring the potential of groundwater sources and implementing strategies to mitigate the impacts of water scarcity. The methods employed include geoelectric surveys using Schlumberger configuration and 3D surface-frequency-depth analysis. The main results include the identification of potential groundwater sources and the implementation of filtration systems to improve water quality. In conclusion, this study highlights the importance of groundwater exploration and community engagement in addressing water scarcity issues, ultimately contributing to improved access to clean water and sustainable development in the region.

Pendeteksian Sumber Air dalam Tanah untuk Memenuhi Kebutuhan Air Domestik di Desa Hargomulyo, Kecamatan Gedangsari, Kabupaten Gunungkidul

2024-06-04T14:11:20+07:00

Gunungkidul Regency, particularly Hargomulyo Village, is one of the areas affected by the long dry season this year. This sub-district faces a critical issue with the scarcity of clean water sources. Therefore, this research aims to estimate the potential of groundwater resources in the Hargomulyo sub-district to guide drilling efforts and meet domestic water needs. The methods used in this research are the Vertical Electrical Sounding (VES) method and the electromagnetic (EM) method to assess groundwater potential, while referring to SNI 6728:1:2015 concerning the preparation of spatial balances of natural resources to determine domestic water needs. The VES method was conducted in Jatibungkus and Mangli hamlets, while the EM method was carried out in Suruh hamlet. The VES method did not identify groundwater sources, whereas the EM method revealed groundwater sources with a discharge rate of 4,920 liters per hour. Domestic water needs in Hargomulyo District amount to 441,900 liters per day. The topography of Hargomulyo Village is predominantly hilly, making geoelectric methods less effective. The geoelectric method only detects underground rock materials, whereas in Hargomulyo Village, groundwater is stored in rock fractures, making it difficult for geoelectric methods to detect. To address this issue, the electromagnetic method is recommended. This method is quite effective in terrain dominated by hilly areas. The results of groundwater estimation using the EM method can fulfill some of the domestic water needs in Hargomulyo District. Repeated water detection using this method could meet domestic water needs and mitigate the water shortage problem in Hargomulyo District.

2024-06-04T14:12:52+07:00

The conventional approach to dry cardamom using sunlight is ineffective to be conducted in village that has high rain intensity and low ambient temperature. In the dry season, cardamom needs to be dried for 4-5 effective days, meanwhile, when it's the rainy season, it would take 14-16 days. The weather and the high prices of dryer machines in Burno Village, Senduro District, Lumajang Province, Indonesia, force the cardamom farmers to sell their cardamom in the form of wet cardamom, although it would reduce 80% of their revenues. This program aims to create a low-cost cardamom dryer to empower farmer groups in Burno Village to make their own dryer from used goods. Collaborating with the Tanirejo farmer group, this program managed to create a prototype of a dryer machine for cardamom which will reduce the drying time by 86% from 2,090 minutes to 277 minutes. By implementing this low-cost dryer, farmers can dry their cardamom efficiently, increase their revenue, and improve their overall economic stability.

2024-06-04T14:11:50+07:00

The growth and development of toddlers reflects the health of future generations. To prevent stunting, the integrated health service post (posyandu) plays a crucial role in regularly monitoring child growth. The Ministry of Health has endeavored to implement digital anthropometric tools in posyandu centers. However, in practice, many community health workers still rely on manual recording due to challenges in utilizing the government's digital anthropometry tools. This digital anthropometric system is designed to offer a more accurate solution for measuring toddler growth. Unlike existing digital anthropometry tools, this system is also integrated with an intuitive application to facilitate measurements by community health workers. Beyond measurement functions, this digital anthropometric system includes a health dashboard that provides a comprehensive view of toddler growth status and automatically generates analytical graphs. Consequently, healthcare providers can swiftly identify potential stunting cases and take early actions. This community engagement initiative aims to develop and to train the usage of digital anthropometric measurement systems for posyandu workers in Karangsari and Sarwodadi Villages. The approach involves training through Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) for posyandu workers. Subsequently, the evaluation of the digital anthropometric system's usage employs the System Usability Scale (SUS), employing ten statements as benchmarks for its utilization. From the System Usability Scale (SUS) evaluation results, an overall score of 56.58 was obtained, indicating an "OK" level of usability. This outcome demonstrates that the digital anthropometric system is functional, yet posyandu workers still require guidance from experienced midwives already familiarized with the system's operation.

2024-06-04T14:12:22+07:00

edunan is one of the villages that produce woven fabrics in Indonesia. Woven fabric is a textile product that is listed as the original intangible cultural heritage of Indonesia. Woven fabrics are generally known as Indonesia’s local cultural wisdom, woven fabrics also become Indonesia's export products that have high economic value. However, despite its potential, it turns out that the Tedunan’s woven fabric business faced serious problems. One of the bigger issues in developing Tedunan’s woven business is the trend of fast fashion products. The existence of this trend has an impact on the declining interest of the Indonesian people to buy local clothing products such as woven and batik. Furthermore, the existence of garment and textile factories around Tedunan Village gave an impact on reducing interest of youth to become woven craftsmen. This case becomes worse because the potential of Tedunan’s woven fabrics will become extinct due to the lack of regeneration of woven craftsmen. Therefore, the existence of this research program aims to help Tedunan woven cloth craftsmen in developing their business. In addition, this program aims to provide analysis and recommendations in building the Tedunan’s Woven business centre by developing synergy and collaboration as an effort to achieve a sustainable economy. Data collection in this study was carried out by observation and in-depth interviews with the Tedunan’s Woven craftsmans and village governments to find out the root of these problems. There are four main problems in the Tedunan’s woven business, such as lack of capital, production, marketing, and regeneration. Therefore, the programs are designed on answering all existing problems, such as a program for mapping the potential and problems of the Tedunan’s woven business, preparing a roadmap for policy recommendations, program for making documentary videos, and digital marketing workshop. All of these programs are purposed to provide insight to the community about steps to develop the Tedunan’s woven fabric business so that it can impact toward the social and economic well-being in the long term.

Land conversion for the Jogja-Bawen Toll Road has made Pakunden Village farmers survive as farmers by buying land in other villages, and some have converted to work in the tourism service sector. The tourism potential of Pakunden Village is 12 baths, 4 regional arts and the sabo dam Development Plan, which will be used as an agroecotourism site. In its dynamics, there is a difference between planning and infrastructure provided by the government. This research also aims to describe the concept of redesigning Pakunden Agro-ecotourism Village Magelang based on strengthening local wisdom as an intervention strategy for the land use change of Jogja-Bawen Toll Road. This research comprises a field study conducted in Pakunden Village, Ngluwar District, Magelang Regency, concurrently with the Adopted Village-based Community Service Program administered by the Directorate of Community Service at UGM. The research methodology employed is qualitative field research.
