Strengthening and Mentoring of Out-of-School Children through Universitas Terbuka Participation to Realize Access to Sustainable Education
No full textThe community service program initiated by Universitas Terbuka focuses on strengthening and mentoring out-of-school children in Serang City, Banten Province. The main issue faced is the increasing number of school dropouts, especially at the elementary and junior high school levels, due to poverty, bullying, and lack of family and school support. The goal of this program is to increase public awareness of the importance of education and encourage children to return to school. The methods used include literature studies, needs assessments, and participatory approaches through counseling and training for parents and children. Evaluations are carried out through interviews to assess changes in community attitudes. The results of the service show an increase in community understanding of the importance of education and synergy between the government, schools, and the community in creating an inclusive learning environment. This program is expected to strengthen access to education for out-of-school children and reduce dropout rates.
 
How Does the Middle East Geopolitical Conflict Impact Indonesia’s Trade Balance?
No full textThe ongoing conflict between Israel and Palestine in the Middle East has escalated in October 2023 and continues, claiming thousands of lives and damaging infrastructure. This tension not only threatens regional stability but can also trigger global economic turmoil. This study analyzes the impact of the Middle East geopolitical conflict on Indonesia's trade balance using descriptive and comparative quantitative methods with secondary data. The results show that the geopolitical conflict in the Middle East has an impact on Indonesia's trade balance, especially from the decline in the surplus value and total trade during the conflict period. The conflict can cause an increase in energy commodity prices, hampered logistics movements, depreciation of the exchange rate, and global economic turmoil. Therefore, it is necessary for Indonesia to minimize the negative impact of the Middle East geopolitical conflict on Indonesia's trade balance, such as diversifying export and import markets, increasing supply chain resilience, strengthening economic diplomacy, and increasing economic competitiveness

Comparative Analysis of Influenza Model Solutions Using Euler, Heun, and RK4 Methods
No full textThis study explores the numerical solutions of an influenza epidemiological model, specifically the SEIR (Susceptible, Exposed, Infected, and Recovered) type, which is represented by a system of nonlinear differential equations. Three numerical methods were applied to solve this model: the Euler method, Heun’s method, and the fourth-order Runge-Kutta (RK4) method. The solutions obtained from these numerical methods were compared to the reference solution from ODE45, as the exact solution of the SEIR model remains unknown. Numerical simulations revealed that using either a very large step size ( ) or a very small step size led to significant numerical errors. Among the five different step sizes tested, provided the most accurate results. Based on the average computational time across different step sizes, the Euler method was the fastest, while RK4 was the slowest. However, the Euler method exhibited the largest error margin, whereas Heun’s and RK4 methods produced comparable errors. Although Heun’s method had the same error margin as RK4, it required less computational time, making it the most efficient choice for this case
Penolakan Pasien Emergency oleh Rumah Sakit akibat Regulasi BPJS Kesehatan: Perspektif Hukum dan Etika
No full textThe refusal of patients in emergency conditions by hospitals that they do not meet the emergency criteria as stipulated by BPJS Kesehatan regulations raises critical legal and medical ethical issues. This study aims to analyze the juridical aspects and professional medical ethics related to such practices by examining the Indonesian Medical Code of Ethics as well as the legal provisions in Law Number 17 of 2023 on Health and Law Number 24 of 2011 on the Social Security Administering Body (BPJS Kesehatan). The research method used is a normative juridical approach through literature study. The findings indicate that, from a legal standpoint, hospitals and medical personnel are obligated to provide medical services to all patients in emergency situations without delay regardless their administrative status. Refusal to provide such services may be classified as a legal violation and may be subject to criminal, civil, and administrative sanctions. From the perspective of medical ethics, such actions are contrary to the principles of beneficence and non-maleficence and violate the Medical Code of Ethics. Therefore, BPJS administrative regulations must be aligned with legal and ethical principles in handling emergency cases to ensure the protection of patients’ rights and the continuity of equitable and professional health services. The study concludes that the refusal of emergency patients by hospitals due to unmet BPJS Health emergency criteria contradicts Indonesia’s positive law and the fundamental principles of medical ethics
Adaptasi Masyarakat dalam Menghadapi Gejala Perubahan Iklim di Wilayah Pesisir Kota Bandar Lampung
No full textClimate change significantly impacts coastal areas, including Bandar Lampung City, which has experienced rising temperatures, decreasing rainfall, and more frequent tidal flooding. This study aims to analyze the forms of adaptation undertaken by coastal communities in response to climate change symptoms and to evaluate their level of understanding and adaptive responses. A mixed-methods approach with a deductive framework was used, involving primary data collection through questionnaires and interviews, as well as secondary data from literature and institutional documents. The results show that while most residents understand the symptoms of climate change, only a small portion have implemented appropriate adaptation measures. These include energy conservation, drainage improvement, stilt house construction, and mangrove preservation. A gap exists between knowledge and action, influenced by social perceptions, education level, and government support. The findings underscore the importance of strengthening community-based adaptive capacity and integrating spatial risk data such as InaRISK into local climate resilience strategies.Perubahan iklim memberikan dampak signifikan terhadap wilayah pesisir, termasuk Kota Bandar Lampung yang mengalami peningkatan suhu, penurunan curah hujan, serta kejadian banjir rob yang semakin sering. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis bentuk adaptasi yang dilakukan masyarakat pesisir dalam merespons gejala perubahan iklim, serta mengevaluasi tingkat pemahaman dan respons adaptif masyarakat. Metode yang digunakan adalah mixed methods dengan pendekatan deduktif, melalui pengumpulan data primer (kuesioner dan wawancara) dan data sekunder (literatur dan dokumen kelembagaan). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa sebagian besar masyarakat memahami gejala perubahan iklim, namun hanya sebagian kecil yang telah mengimplementasikan tindakan adaptasi yang tepat. Bentuk adaptasi yang dilakukan meliputi penghematan energi, perbaikan drainase, pembangunan rumah panggung, serta pelestarian mangrove. Terdapat kesenjangan antara pengetahuan dan tindakan adaptif, yang dipengaruhi oleh persepsi sosial, tingkat pendidikan, dan dukungan pemerintah. Temuan ini menekankan pentingnya penguatan kapasitas adaptasi berbasis komunitas dan integrasi kebijakan risiko bencana berbasis data spasial seperti InaRISK untuk mendorong ketahanan iklim di wilayah pesisir

No full textHome-based food businesses are one form of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) that play a strategic role in supporting family economic resilience. However, in practice, this type of business actor often faces challenges in financial management, especially related to calculating the cost of production (HPP), recording transactions, and selecting packaging that is not only visually attractive but also supports the principles of environmental sustainability. This Community Service (PKM) activity was carried out with the aim of increasing the entrepreneurial literacy of residents, especially in terms of business management and the use of environmentally friendly packaging. The methods used include field observation, interactive counseling, group discussions, and evaluations based on participant feedback. The results of the activity program show that most business actors have not implemented financial records and do not have a distinctive brand identity or product packaging. After the counseling, there was an increase in understanding regarding the importance of separating business and household resources, recording business costs in a structured manner, and using packaging that supports the zero waste movement. This activity program makes a positive contribution to building awareness of more economically and ecologically responsible entrepreneurs among home-based food MSME actors
