Result
The "Results" section in a community service journal focuses on documenting the implementation of a program or project and its impact on the target community. In this section, the authors first outline in detail how the project or program was conducted, including details about the location, the involved participants, and the activities that have been carried out. Subsequently, the authors report the tangible outputs from the program or project, such as the number of training sessions held, the number of participants receiving services, or other service units that have been provided. Another key element of the "Results" section is the documentation of the program's or project's impact on society. The authors need to demonstrate how this intervention has resulted in real changes, such as increased knowledge, behavior changes, or improved economic welfare for the participants. In addition, the "Results" section should also include supporting evidence that validates claims about outcomes and impacts. This evidence can be in the form of photos from activities, testimonials from participants, survey results, or other relevant data that can help readers understand the effectiveness and impact of the program or project. Although the main emphasis in community service is usually more on tangible impacts than strict research methodology, the authors still need to provide a brief interpretation or analysis of the collected data in the "Results" section.
