The earthquake that shook the Lombok Island in 2018 caused an impact of physical and psychological damage to the community. Especially in the village of Persiapan Menggala, many children experience fear, anxiety, sadness, and even prolonged trauma. Therefore, the community of Persiapan Menggala Village, especially children, is in dire need of a psychological rehabilitation process. One effort that can be done in helping to reduce community trauma is to do trauma healing. Trauma healing is very important especially for children affected by disasters. Therefore, the purpose of this community service activity is to carry out trauma healing that is ongoing for the children of the village of Persiapan Menggala, Pemenang sub-district, North Lombok Regency. The trauma healing service was carried out by holding a Mosque-based Teaching and Learning Activity (KBM). This activity is carried out by involving students doing a Real Work Lecture (KKN) of the village of Persiapan Menggala for 30 days. Activities undertaken include (1) Study Dex (2) compiling mosque-based curriculum for teaching and learning; (3) carrying out debriefing to students; (4) implementing mosque-based KBM; (5) holding competition activities; (6) opinion polls on community responses to mosque-based teaching and learning activities. The impact of this activity was very positive for the children of the Persiapan Menggala village, namely the reduction of fear, anxiety, sadness, and even trauma experienced and the increase in the noble character and knowledge of religion, mathematics, and science of the children of the Persiapan Menggala village.

Abstract In the early elementary grades, the primary emphasis is on developing skills crucial to future academic and personal success—specifically oral and written communication skills. These skills are vital to student success as well as to meaningful participation in the classroom and interaction with peers. Children with complex communication needs (CCN) may require the use of high-performance speech generating devices (SGDs). The challenges for these students are further complicated by the task of learning language at a time when they are expected to apply their linguistic skills to academic tasks. However, by focusing on core vocabulary as a primary vehicle for instruction, educators can equip students who use SGDs to develop language skills and be competitive in the classroom. In this article, we will define core vocabulary and provide theoretical and practical insights into integrating it into the classroom routine for developing oral and written communication skills.

Abstract. Given the fact that most of the dark personality measures are developed based on data collected in low-stake settings, the present study addresses the appropriateness of their use in high-stake contexts. Specifically, we examined item- and scale-level differential functioning of the Short Dark Triad (SD3; Paulhus & Jones, 2011 ) measure across testing contexts. The Short Dark Triad was administered to applicant ( N = 457) and non-applicant ( N = 592) samples. Item- and scale-level invariances were tested using an Item Response Theory (IRT)-based approach and a Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) approach, respectively. Results show that more than half of the SD3 items were flagged for Differential Item Functioning (DIF), and Exploratory Structural Equation Modeling (ESEM) results supported configural, but not metric invariance. Implications for theory and practice are discussed.
