Community service aims to provide insight into knowledge of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) approach, to improve professionalism for elementary school teachers at SDN Cilisung 1 and 2, Bandung. In addition, it provides steps how to apply STEM approach for learners through training activities on STEM. The target of the training is elementary school teachers in SDN Cilisung 1 and 2 Bandung. Problems are solved in three stages of activity, namely preparation, implementation and evaluation. Preparation is done by conducting a preliminary survey to see the conditions in the field regarding teachers’ professional development. Implementation is done by training, using lecture method that is with presentation technique, followed by practice of micro teaching about STEM. Evaluation of activities carried out for each stage by collecting and summarizing data from each stage of activity. The results of the training activities show the success rate with an indication of material conformity with the needs of SDN Cilisung 1 and 2 teachers, positive responses from the participants, and most participants have understood the STEM approach.

The approach of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) in Indonesia is a new thing in education. The actors in the world of education still continue to adapt to all changes and updates happened all the time. Yet, sometimes the changes are not supported by the improvement in teachers’ knowledge, skill, and readiness. This phenomenological research aims to analyze the elementary teachers' perspective in Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics (STEM) framework implementation in Indonesia. The research is phenomenological research focused on the elementary school teachers’ perspective on STEM implementation.  There are 35 teachers of public and private elementary schools with more than a year of service period in Yogyakarta, Indonesia was involved in this research. Data collection was conducted by the interview. The data collecting technique was analyzed with Bogdan and Biklen's analysis models. The analysis results were used to seek the information related to the following aspects: Teachers’ knowledge of STEM, benefits of STEM, steps of STEM implementation, assessment of STEM implementation, and teacher readiness to implement STEM. The results showed that the teachers’ knowledge in the STEM framework was still low and they were not ready to implement STEM for various reasons. This research is expected to be a reference for elementary schools and local government in socializing STEM and to support the STEM implementation in elementary schools.

The Value Clarification Technique (VCT) approach can foster student’s awarenessof critical thinking through clarification and test the truth of values. In practice oflearning sometimes teachers ignore the guidance of attitudes and character values.This is caused by lack of teacher’s skills to implement the learning approach inlearning Civics and Social Science. So that impact to low student character andstudent unready to face competition globally. The purposes of this training are toincrease insight and train teachers in Talawi to apply VCT approach model matrixin Civics and Social Science lesson, in order to improve the student’s character.The targets are elementary school teachers in Talawi (20 people). The method inthis training consists of Lecture Method, Question and Answer, Discussions, used todescribe the material, encouraging active participation of teachers, selectingmaterial to be designed with steps of VCT model matrix. Recitation Method fortraining teachers to designing RPP with VCT matrix. Simulation Method to trainteachers to implement Civics and Social Science learning with VCT model matrix.The results are teachers in Talawi can understand, design-implement, improve theirskills in implementing Civics and Social Science with VCT matrix model that caninfluence the improvement of student’s character values
