Abstract
ABSTRACT
The use of mobile phones by students in Islamic boarding schools is relatively high- this can harm their mental health, for example, a sense of dependency and inability to break away from the virtual world and become socially isolated. Bullying cases are also cases that often occur in schools that have an impact on students^ mental health. One successful effort to improve students^, teachers^, and parents^ knowledge about mental health is through education and training. The team from the Faculty of Medicine, Unisba, provided education to students, teachers, and parents. This training aimed to provide knowledge to students, teachers, and parents about mental health and early detection of students who experience mental health problems. As an implementation of this training, education was carried out for teachers and parents in the form of talk shows and for students in the form of educational games, as well as training in filling out the SDQ questionnaire for teachers. From this activity, it is known that it has been able to increase the knowledge of participants by an average of 11%.
