https://ejurnal.methodist.ac.id/index.php/methabdi/article/view/5629
<p><em>Low legal literacy in rural communities often hinders the effective implementation of legislation at the local level, potentially triggering disputes and reducing public compliance. This community service activity aims to enhance legal awareness among residents of Wantilan Village as a strategic pillar for regulatory enforcement. The method employed integrates Community-Based Research (CBR) and Participatory Action Research (PAR), encompassing interactive seminars, participatory discussions, and free legal consultation services. Program effectiveness was evaluated using pretest and posttest instruments administered to 85 participants. Results indicate a significant increase in legal awareness scores from an average of 42.5 to 78.3 (p < 0.01), with the highest improvement in knowledge of rights/obligations and compliance attitudes. A total of 24 consultation cases were successfully handled, primarily focusing on civil and village administration matters in a preventive manner. The findings confirm that a participatory educational approach effectively bridges the gap between formal legal norms and community practices. It is concluded that the program successfully strengthened the community’s legal awareness foundation. It is recommended that this model be developed into a sustainable village legal clinic integrated with village government programs and partner universities.</em></p>Lisda Apriliani Sobirin, Taufik Taufik, Muhamad Iqbal Ansori Firdaus, Ilman Napiah, Mardiman Mardiman

https://ejurnal.methodist.ac.id/index.php/methabdi/article/view/5504
<p><em>The rapid development of digital technology has driven a paradigm shift in entrepreneurship, particularly within vocational education institutions such as Vocational High Schools (SMK). SMK graduates are required not only to possess technical competencies in accordance with their fields of expertise but also to develop technology-based entrepreneurial skills, commonly referred to as technopreneurship. However, limited digital entrepreneurial literacy and a lack of practical experience remain major challenges for SMK students in developing independent technology-based businesses. This community service activity aims to enhance SMK students’ knowledge, skills, and entrepreneurial attitudes through digital-based technopreneurship training. The implementation methods include theoretical lectures, hands-on training in designing digital business ideas, simulations of digital platform utilization, as well as discussions and evaluations. The results indicate an improvement in students’ understanding of technopreneurship concepts, their ability to develop simple digital business ideas, and their motivation to engage in independent entrepreneurship. This activity is expected to serve as a model for strengthening digital entrepreneurship competencies in vocational high schools and to contribute to the preparation of adaptive, innovative, and competitive graduates in the era of digital transformation.</em></p>Fitriana Harahap, Wirhan Fahrozi, Elida Tuti Siregar, Nidia Enjelita Saragih, Husin Sariangsah, Robiatul Adawiyah

https://ejurnal.methodist.ac.id/index.php/methabdi/article/view/5652
<p><em>One of the MSMEs in Pematang Johar village is agriculture. Rice yields are abundant, with the potential to produce approximately 12,250 tons per harvest season. This harvest undergoes a post-harvest process that ultimately produces rice, and the remaining rice milling residue becomes rice grits. The goal of this Community Service Program (PKM) activity is to utilize the rice grits from the rice milling process to create a nutritious and economically valuable rice milk product for the agripreneur community. The PKM activity utilizes the Participatory Action Research (PAR) method, positioning the agripreneur community in Pematang Johar village not only as objects but also as active subjects or partners. The results of this activity have a positive impact, reducing crop waste, making it more useful and improving the well-being of the Pematang Johar community.</em></p>Pesta Gultom, Desma Erica Maryati Manik, Elisabeth Nainggolan, Irvan Rolyesh Situmorang

https://ejurnal.methodist.ac.id/index.php/methabdi/article/view/5659
<p><em>The increasing use of smartphones to access social media among junior high school students can lead to conflict and loss of private data. The purpose of this digital literacy education is to provide and strengthen understanding of digital literacy education in social media. The method used is a qualitative descriptive approach, starting with the problem formulation stage, data collection stage, data analysis stage, and reporting stage. The data analysis results indicate that 100% of junior high school students use smartphones 4-6 hours per day, and 57% use more than 6 hours per day. Furthermore, an average of 100% have social media accounts, namely Instagram and Threads (33%). This demonstrates the need for junior high school students to be equipped with an understanding of digital literacy to improve critical thinking skills, protect them from cybercrime, and be able to analyze and verify the accuracy of news, thereby creating digital ethics in cyberspace and reducing the risk of conflict.</em></p>Lismardiana Sembiring, Jaidup Banjarnahor, Harlen Silalahi, Dumariani Silalahi, Jenheri Rejeki Tarigan, Erni Dewi Munthe, Supelio
