Pelatihan Penulisan dan Publikasi Artikel Populer Berbasis Riset melalui The Conversation bagi Mahasiswa Universitas Negeri Makassar
The ability of academics to disseminate research findings to the wider public through popular media remains relatively limited, despite the important role of science communication in expanding the social impact of research. This community service program aimed to enhance the knowledge, motivation, and interest of Universitas Negeri Makassar students in writing and publishing research-based popular articles through The Conversation Indonesia, while also evaluating participants’ perceptions of the training implementation. The program was conducted online via Google Meet in May 2026 and involved 22 active students from Universitas Negeri Makassar. Evaluation was carried out using a five-point Likert scale questionnaire consisting of nine indicators and two categorical questions, which were analyzed descriptively using mean scores and frequency distributions. The findings showed that the training received positive responses from participants, with an average evaluation score of 4.08 (categorized as good). In addition, some participants expressed intentions to publish articles through The Conversation after completing the training. These findings suggest that the training has the potential to support the strengthening of science communication and the culture of popular publication among university students. However, the interpretation of the results should be approached cautiously, as the evaluation was based solely on participants’ perceptions following the training.

Edukasi Berbasis Literasi Sains dalam Membentuk Kebiasaan Konsumsi Makanan Bergizi pada Generasi Alpha
Unhealthy eating habits among elementary school students have become an increasing concern in the Generation Alpha era. Exposure to digital media and the high consumption of instant foods cause students to prefer foods high in sugar, salt, and fat rather than balanced nutritious foods. Initial observations at UPT SPF SD Negeri Layang III Makassar revealed that most students tended to consume instant snacks and sugary drinks without considering nutritional content or health impacts. This community service program aimed to improve students’ understanding and develop healthy eating habits based on scientific literacy among elementary school students. The program involved 35 fourth- and fifth-grade students. The activities were conducted through interactive lectures, question-and-answer sessions, and discussions supported by visual media such as posters and healthy food illustrations. The evaluation was carried out using pre-tests and post-tests developed based on the PISA 2025 scientific literacy framework, covering the domains of scientific competence, scientific knowledge, environmental science, and science identity. The results showed an increase in students’ average scores from 59.7 to 85.7.

Penguatan Instructional English Guru Sekolah Dasar melalui Pelatihan Berbasis Praktik di Kabupaten Barru
The use of instructional English plays an important role in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learning in primary schools, as teachers serve as the main source of language input and interaction. However, many teachers still face difficulties in using English as a medium of instruction, particularly due to limited vocabulary and low confidence. This community service program aimed to strengthen primary school teachers’ use of instructional English through practice-based training. The program was conducted in Barru Regency in April 2026 and involved 30 primary school teachers. The training was carried out through lectures, demonstrations, microteaching practices, and feedback sessions. Data were collected through observation, participant reflection, and questionnaires, then analyzed descriptively. The results showed improvements in the use of instructional English, particularly in clarity of instruction, frequency of English use, and classroom interaction. In addition, participants’ confidence also improved, although fluency and vocabulary mastery remained challenging. In conclusion, practice-based training was effective in strengthening teachers’ use of instructional English. Continuous assistance programs are needed to support the consistent use of English in classroom instruction.

Pelatihan Konselor Sebaya Berbasis Partisipatif melalui Game-Based Learning untuk Peningkatan Pemahaman Awal Anggota Baru PIK-R di SMKN 3 Makassar
This community service activity aimed to improve new PIK-R members' initial understanding of peer counselor roles, role boundaries, basic communication skills, and PIK-R functions as an initial support space at school. The activity was conducted on November 20, 2025, in the SMKN 3 Makassar meeting room, involving 28 student participants who were new PIK-R members. The method used participatory training through interactive lectures, discussion, question-and-answer sessions, and simple game-based learning in the form of writing hopes and aspirations. Evaluation was conducted descriptively through non-standardized observation, question-and-answer responses, and oral reflection at the end of the session, focusing on participation, conceptual understanding, and participant responses. The results showed that all 28 participants completed the session; participation was indicated by their willingness to answer questions, respond to simple cases, and share outputs from the activity. During the question-and-answer session, participants were able to restate the role of peer counselors as helping friends, the function of PIK-R as a space for information and support, and several basic skills, including listening, empathy, asking questions, and maintaining confidentiality. Participants' reflections also indicated initial awareness that peer counselors are not responsible for solving all problems, but for helping peers seek appropriate support. The main contribution of this activity is that it provides an initial foundation for new PIK-R members to understand the roles, boundaries, and peer support flow at school. Because this activity was limited to initial training without a pretest-posttest, further practice, supervision by guidance and counseling teachers, and gradual evaluation are needed.

Peningkatan Motivasi Belajar Bahasa Inggris dengan Memanfaatkan Aplikasi Media Sosial di MA Darussalam Barandasi
English is often perceived as a difficult and boring subject, which can lead students to become indifferent and unmotivated to learn it. This issue is also prevalent among the students of class III IPS at MA Darussalam Barandasi. On the other hand, spending time on social media platforms like TikTok, Instagram, and Snapchat is one of their favorite pastimes. These students often spend hours on these platforms daily, with little to no benefit for their studies. A team of lecturers from the English Education Department and students from the KEMAL program at FKIP Universitas Muslim Maros recognized this as a problem that needed a solution. A creative and effective approach was required—one that could combine both interests into a meaningful and beneficial activity. As a result, a service program was developed with the aim of boosting students’ motivation to learn English through the use of social media applications. The outcomes of this initiative were very promising. Students responded positively, with enthusiasm and excitement, to the idea of learning English via social media. They began following several educational accounts, carefully engaging with content related to English learning materials. This content was then studied and practiced effectively. Students also agreed that using social media made English learning sessions more enjoyable, which in turn motivated them to engage with the subject with greater enthusiasm.

Meningkatkan Skill dan Mengubah Pandangan Siswa terhadap Pembelajaran Bahasa Inggris Melalui Lagu dan Games
It is crucial to start teaching English to children at a young age because of how important it is to learn it. In practice, English is not an easy language to teach to elementary school students. There are several main reasons why English is difficult to teach, the first is that English words and sentences are difficult to pronounce because they are written and pronounced differently. In addition, the lack of teacher skills in terms of mastering teaching techniques and methods makes students less interested in learning English. The problems faced by children in Bawasalo Village are the lack of mastery of vocabulary and correct pronunciation so that they have low English quality. The purpose of this service is to provide English language training through songs and games for children in Bawasalo Village, Maros Regency, South Sulawesi.
