Training on implementing science books using a Case-Based Learning (CBL) approach was conducted to enhance students' critical thinking skills. This training was motivated by the need for innovative teaching materials that are not only theoretical but also able to present real-world contexts in science learning. The training was carried out in several stages: an introduction to the concept of CBL, guidance on using case-based science books, and direct practice during the learning process. The participants were students of the Elementary School Teacher Education study program in the Basic Concepts of Science course. The instruments used included a response questionnaire, observations of the training implementation, and a test. The results showed that implementing science books with a CBL approach had a positive impact, as evidenced by improvements in students' ability to identify problems, analyse information, and draw logical conclusions from real cases. In addition, students' responses to the training were also very positive, with evaluations indicating that CBL-based science books are practical and engaging. The posttest results showed an improvement in students' critical thinking, with an average score of 82. Thus, training in implementing CBL-based science books proved effective in equipping students for science learning.

This Community Service (PkM) activity was motivated by the limited availability of innovative learning media for visually impaired students, who generally rely only on audio or braille. The purpose of this program is to develop and implement multisensory learning media based on View Scan, Auris, and Mechano Receptor to enhance the cognitive functions of visually impaired students at SLB Negeri Lamongan. The novelty lies in integrating visual, auditory, and tactile technologies into a structured learning system, thereby improving accessibility and learning effectiveness. The method used was a quantitative, experimental design approach. The subjects were visually impaired students, with data collected through observation, pre- and post-cognitive tests, and documentation. Data analysis was carried out descriptively and inferentially. The results showed a positive response: View Scan supported object identification, Auris reinforced verbal comprehension, and the Mechano Receptor improved spatial perception. Students’ participation, concentration, and memory increased significantly, with an effectiveness rate of 81.01%. In conclusion, this PkM successfully enhanced the cognitive functions of visually impaired students.

The Community Partnership Empowerment Program for the Delta Samudera Timur Group was carried out in Dusun Tegalsari Dukuh Kupang, Jabon District, Sidoarjo Regency. This activity was implemented to address the clean water crisis caused by brackish water conditions that are not suitable for consumption. The main objective is to improve access to clean and consumable water while also promoting gender equality in coastal communities. Efforts were made through the installation of a brackish water purification system utilizing local materials (ALPAMAL), along with gender-based mentoring that emphasizes the distribution of domestic roles and economic opportunities. The implementation began with a community needs survey, followed by the construction and installation of the purification system, and concluded with an evaluation through post-activity interviews. The results showed that the technology successfully produced clean water for both consumption and household needs. The mentoring also increased men’s awareness and participation in domestic work, while opening new business opportunities for women, such as community-based culinary ventures. This program demonstrates that the combination of environmentally friendly technology and social approaches can serve as a catalyst for improving the quality of life and transforming gender relations in coastal areas.
