Beberapa daerah di Wonogiri memiliki tanah yang mengandung kapur, sementara itu sebagian masyarakat mengonsumsi air yang berasal dari dalam tanah. Pada kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat tahun 2016 ditemukan permasalahan dalam masyarakat di kelurahan Wonogiri yaitu sulitnya mendeteksi adanya kapur dalam air yang mereka konsumsi. Sebagai akibatnya banyak masyarakat yang menderita penyakit dalam yang diakibatkan pengendapan kapur di dalam tubuh mereka seperti penyakit ginjal. Oleh karenanya, tim PPM Fakultas MIPA Universitas Negeri Yogyakarta membangun sistem pendeteksi adanya kapur dalam cairan berbasis Light Emitting Diode (LED) dan Light Dependent Resistor (LDR). LED digunakan untuk menyinari cairan dengan kadar kapur yang berbeda-beda, kemudian LDR akan mendeteksi cahaya LED yang melewati cairan tersebut. Besar kecilnya nilai luaran LDR akan bergantung kadar kapur dalam cairan. Masyarakat sangat antusias dan mulai menggunakan alat ini untuk mendeteksi adanya kapur di air yang mereka konsumsi. Kata kunci: Kesadahan, LDR, LED Workshop On Detector of Water Hardness Based On Light Dependet Resistor In Giritontro Village, Giritontro District, Wonogiri RegencyAbstract           Some areas in Wonogiri contain hardness in its soil, while some people consume water that come from the soil. In community service activity in 2016, we found problems in the community in Giritontro, Wonogiri that is the difficulties to detect the hardness in the water that people consume. As a result, many people who suffer from internal diseases caused by the deposition of lime in their bodies such as kidney disease. Therefore, the PPM team of the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences of Yogyakarta State University built a hardness detection system in liquid based Light Emitting Diode (LED) and Light Dependent Resistor (LDR). LEDs are used to irradiate fluids with different lime levels, then LDR will detect the LED light passing through the liquid. The size of the LDR output value will depend on the lime content in the liquid. People are very enthusiastic and start using this tool to detect the presence of limestone in the water they consume. Keywords: Hardness, LDR, LED

Background: This study was an assessment of educators’ levels of concern on the adoption of Education 5.0: A case of a State University in Zimbabwe. Education 5.0 being a new curriculum reform in Zimbabwe which focuses on five pillars namely, research, teaching, community service, innovation and industrialisation. Educators are directly involved in implementing education reforms hence the importance of an assessment of their stages of concern towards the adoption of Education 5.0. Methodology: A survey using 35 questionnaire items adapted from the Concerns-Based Adoption model was used to collect data from a sample of 28 lecturers derived from a population of 30. The researcher completed a score sheet using the responses from the questionnaires. Data on stages of concern was coded using Likert scale of 0 to 3. Data was analysed to measure stages of concern among the educators who are implementors of Education 5.0. by averaging the five items per stage to determine the level of concern among the educators. Standard deviation for each stage of concern was also calculated to determine variations among the educators’ level of concern. Results: The study revealed that the educators had their highest intensity of concern under stage 2 (personal), followed by stage 5 (collaboration), and their least concern on stage 6 (refocusing), followed by stage 3 (management). These findings indicate that these educators are on the self-level of concern, much concerned about how they would personally be affected by Education 5.0 and least concerned about the task at hand, which is the implementation of Education 5.0. Conclusion: The high intensity scores of educators’ concern at the personal and collaboration stages suggest that educators are more worried about how Education 5.0 adoption would affect them personally and also their significant others, students being part of this group. It is expected of educators to be concerned about how their students will be affected because students are part of lecturers’ most valued clients.
