ONLINE SEMINAR BEESWAX WRAP MAKING

Abstract

The Covid-19 pandemic resulted in minimal wiggle space for lecturers to implement community service. Trilogy University provides community service services combined with online workshops organized by KKN students. The seminar materials are beeswax wraps. During pandemics, the aim is to encourage business people, namely to create food storage support goods and socialize the cessation of the use of plastic for single use. The instruction is conducted in the form of seminars, demonstrations, and q & a. Web-based seminars use the Zoom app, organize via WhatsApp, and administer registration via Google Forms. Participants who signed up were 422, 348 of whom attended. Participants were 64 % female and 36 % male; 90 % live on the island of Java and the rest outside the island of Java. The educational standard of participants is now 74 % of candidates, 14 % of respondents of undergraduate, and 3 percent of graduates of graduate. A survey is conducted via Google Forms. To find out the answers of the participant a survey is administered through Google Forms. As a result, 58% reacted favourably to all events, and 36% were dissatisfied. The negative response was due to weak management of the committee, poor coordination of the committee, very little time, internet signal limitations, and inadequate sound quality. In general, participants recognize the creation of innovative goods relevant to global pandemics and waste emergencies.
