The assessments used in learning are often not in accordance with the demands of developing students' life skills and soft skills, when in fact these skills can be the basis for students to be able to compete with the global community in the future. This research aims to analyze the assessment of the skills to interpret data and scientific evidence on the written test of virus content used in Senior High Schools (SHS). The research method is descriptive through the collection of written test questions documents. The written test questions are analyzed on the Student Worksheet, Daily Test, Mid-Semester Assessment and Final Semester Assessment. A total of six schools in the city of Bandung categorized as public and private were selected by stratified random sampling representing the quality of each school. A total of 133 virus questions from six high schools in Bandung were collected for analysis. The research instrument used a validation rubric about science epistemic skills on indicators of skills in interpreting scientific data and evidence (PISA, 2019 framework). The data were analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively with descriptive statistics. The results showed that the questions used in schools on virus content (94.75%) had not measured the skills of interpreting scientific data and evidence. These questions also do not test students’ literacy in facing a virus pandemic. Only a minor proportion of items (2.25%) were found to test data interpretation and scientific evidence skills. In general, the subject of the test in schools still focuses on memory or memorization of material, basic understanding and does not present information or data to be processed and interpreted. Most of the questions presented are only in the form of basic concepts so that it does not require students to think at high levels and reason.
<p>Stunting reduction and sanitation have been essential goals in national sustainable development. Nutrition and sanitation education is critical to prevent stunting because children’s growth requires optimal nutrition and a healthy environment. A community service activity was conducted under the health scheme supported by Universitas Siliwangi for 2022 (<em>PbM-SK</em>) in collaboration with the women association members in Sambongsari Village, Tasikmalaya, West Java. Eighteen organisation members who participated in the activity. They were given counselling about the causes of stunting, the impact of stunting, the fulfilment of nutrition, and the effects of sanitation. The purposes of community service activities were to understand the causal factors, the characteristics of stunting, the impact of stunting, and healthy sanitation. Public awareness to consume food containing protein, calcium, and vitamin D, which are essential nutrients. Problems in households with toddlers with chronic diseases such as tuberculosis (TB) are usually less able to distinguish the causes and treatment of diseases with stunting conditions because there are physical growth disorders. Thus, education to prevent stunting is essential so that public understanding is more optimal on the prevention and proper handling of toddlers with stunting characteristics and toddlers who experience certain diseases. The evaluation of stunting and sanitation knowledge in Sambongpari, Tasikmalaya City, showed increased public understanding of stunting and sanitation. However, it was not significant, namely the average value of 36.5 to 68.6. Stunting management strategies closely related to children’s golden period, namely specific nutrition interventions for the First 1,000 Days of Life, can determine brain growth, intelligence, height, and vulnerability to chronic disease risk.</p>
The purpose of this community service is to provide counseling about the introduction of edible plants that can be used and techniques or processing methods as an alternative food. Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) is used where the community is effectively involved in formulating plans and policies. Data collection is done directly in the form of primary and secondary data. At the same time, the data analysis technique is done by interactive analysis. The results of the service include 1) recognizing wild plant species as alternative food or plants that are always used as garden plants, 2) Potential edible plants that can be utilized can be in the form of leaves and stems or young stalks, roots, and tubers, fruits and vegetables. Nuts or seeds and grains; 3) It contains enough nutrients for nutritional needs and food supplements and health, both of which have the potential as internal and external drugs.
