This community service program aimed to increase the knowledge and awareness of mothers in Sumbernongko Village, Ngusikan District, Jombang Regency about the importance of early education about the risks and dangers of electromagnetic waves exposed by smartphone signals (gadgets). The activities in this program were carried out by giving lectures, presenting interactive videos and question and answer. The first step was to provide education about what radiation is and its use in communication and the impacts that will occur in the short and long term. Then, it was followed by giving tips on reducing the use of gadgets. The target of this community service program was to make parents able to be wise and firm when limit ing the use of gadgets to their children and familiarize their children with activities outside or inside the home more because the role of parents in children's development is largely determined by their daily activities.
One of the most important skills needed to face the 21st-century challenges is critical thinking. Gender differences are considered to contribute to the critical thinking skills. The objective of this study was to determine students' critical thinking skills based on gender. This quantitative research involved 57 students of the Natural Sciences Education Study Program, Universitas Hasyim Asy’ari. The instrument employed was critical thinking skills test. The data was analyzed using independent samples t-test. The results showed that the average scores of critical thinking skills of male and female students were 2.60 and 2.99 respectively. In addition, there was significant difference of students’ critical thinking skills between male and female [t (55) = 2.065, p = 0.044]. In conclusion, female students tend to have the higher critical thinking skills than the male.
The coronavirus outbreak from 2019 had a significant impact on all sectors in Indonesia, especially the education sector, which requires learning from home. It provides a change in students' learning style to make educators change online-based learning using various platforms, one of which is the Physics Virtual Lab (PVL). This application is in a simulation designed explicitly physics practicum, accessed using a mobile phone. This study aims to determine how effective the use of PVL in fulfilling practicum activities is in terms of perceptions and competencies of students' attitudes. The research method is descriptive research to obtain an overview of PVL applications in physics practicum using domestic used materials. The subjects in this study were students of the first-semester science education study program who took the Basic Physics course-collecting data using perception questionnaires and attitude assessment sheets. The average student perception score is 4.22. Then, the students' attitude competence results obtained an average score of 80.88 integrity; independence 74.89; confidence 75.17 and responsibility 84.89. It shows that the implementation of PVL builds students' integrity and responsibility.
The rising of an environmental issue and the lack of the handling of garbage organizing give support to us to do the research by involving garbages as the main material in making simple visual aids of physics. Based on that condition, we try to make new innovations in stimulating the creativity developing of natural science education department students of UNHASY having done the lecturing of basic physics collaborated with environmental science. The purpose of the research is to be able to give insight through education program of 5R (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Replace, Respect) to students of natural science department of University of Hasyim Asy’ari and apply that knowledge in changing garbage to be simple visual aids of physics. The method used in this research is qualitative descriptive, whose data can be divided into 3 kinds: observation results (detail description of what has happened in the field), interview results ( direct citation from people’s statements in interview session) dan written material. The results of the data are, then analyzed by using observation sheets of creative thinking ability. The main research subjects are 29 students. Meanwhile, the research result is in the form of the average score of students’ creativity ability reaching 72.5% with high category.The rising of an environmental issue and the lack of the handling of garbage organizing give support to us to do the research by involving garbages as the main material in making simple visual aids of physics.

One of the most important skills which is needed to face this 21st centurychallenge is critical thinking since it is very important to solve problems. This research is conducted to find out the critical thinking skill of the Science Department students at Universitas Hasyim Asy’ari (UNHASY) Jombang who took Basic Biology. This research is a survey research and conducted during even semester 2018/2019. The number of the research subject is 57 students. The researchers use essay/subjective test as research instrument to measure the students’ critical thinking. Then, the data was analyzed descritively. Based on the research, the researchers found that the students’ critical thinking is at indicator range 2,92 which means undeveloped. The total percentage of students’ critical thinking skill which is at undeveloped level is 49,12% while the other one which is at well developed level is 50,88%.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
