Pelatihan Menulis Karya Ilmiah dan Blog di Internet pada Para Guru Sekolah Menengah Pertama (SMP) Al-Farabi

Permendiknas Number 18 of 2007 mandates that teachers who are in office must have an educator certificate through a competency test. One of the assessment elements assessed in teacher development is scientific writing. Writing is a language skill that is very important in human life because it allows one to express ideas, feelings and ideas in written form. Teachers' writing skills can be improved by making effective use of blogs. Community service activities are carried out at Al-Farabi Middle School, Depok, West Java with the aim of introducing the concept of scientific writing and its forms to teachers so that they can be applied to their students, as well as providing explanations about the use of e-mail and personal blogs as learning media. The methods used in this activity are lectures, discussions, and questions and answers.
