Abstract

This research activity as well as community service activity is an activity program funded by the Ministry of Education and Culture of the Republic of Indonesia in the field of Research and Technology. The main focus of this activity is the process of building learning facilities in the form of earthquake-resistant buildings for children of primary school age which are used specifically for learning in the field of religion and other educational activities. The scope of use of this facility covers the area of Semen village, Gandusari sub-district, in Blitar Regency, East Java-Indonesia. With the existence of these buildings or facilities, school-age children who use these facilities further increase their motivation and success in learning. This building can accommodate as many as 25 school-age children. The process of conducting research involving lecturers and researchers from various fields of science, especially civil engineering construction science, management science and education science, it is hoped that in the future the development of this facility and its benefits can be an example for other areas that focus on providing learning facilities for school-age children. Most of the survey activities for school-age children that have been carried out express a sense of pleasure, agreement and positive response to the presence of facilities for them in the form of learning buildings. The survey was conducted for two weeks covering the area of Semen Village, Gandusari District, Blitar Regency, East Java. Another objective of this research and community service activity is equal opportunity to enjoy better facilities for school-age children to support their academic achievement. Given that until now the government's ability to provide learning facilities and infrastructure there are still some obstacles and problems. So that the contribution of thoughts and energy from the academy is very much needed. Therefore, the Ministry of Education and Culture of the Republic of Indonesia is aggressively and focused on implementing the Independent Learning of Independent Campus (MBKM) policy in an effort to succeed and equalize learning and study opportunities from undergraduate level down. The limitations of this research and community service are only focused on one area or village, but in the future it will be developed to other areas that are relevant to its designation.
