Abstract

Student Service Activities (PKM) were carried out to provide an alternative learning space for elementary school-aged children in the Tiban Palem Housing Complex, Batam City, by utilizing the Bougenville 3 Health Post as an interactive learning center. The program was designed to address the limited access to non-formal learning facilities while providing an enjoyable and meaningful experience in learning basic English. The implementation method employed a thematic, communicative, participatory, and multimodal approach, integrating songs, educational games, visual media, and creative tasks. The program participants were 37 children aged 6–14 years, divided into two groups based on grade level. The results of the activities showed that the majority of participants (70–85%) were able to master the target vocabulary and construct simple sentences in accordance with the learning objectives. Observations also revealed increased motivation, active engagement, and self-confidence among the children in their oral use of English. Additionally, parental responses were highly positive, as evidenced by high ratings of learning quality (76.2%) and material suitability (81%), and by children's enthusiasm exceeding 95%. Overall, this program has succeeded in strengthening the role of posyandu as a community-based educational space, improving basic language skills, and building close collaboration between universities and the community. For sustainability, it is recommended that volunteer training and the development of similar programs in other areas be implemented.

Abstract

This study examines the role of student activities in supporting the development of children in orphanages. Using a qualitative approach with a case study design, the research involved in-depth interviews, participant observation, and document analysis, focusing on academic, emotional, and social aspects. Through brief visits, students conducted various activities such as education, ice-breaking, and the development of a mini-library. The findings show that student activities can enhance children's learning motivation, cognitive skills, and self-confidence. Additionally, these activities also strengthen empathy and social communication skills. Despite the significant positive impact, the limited duration of the visits poses a challenge in creating long-term changes. Therefore, this study recommends increasing the frequency of activities, developing long-distance mentoring programs, and collaborating with local educational institutions. These suggestions are expected to enhance the effectiveness of student programs in supporting the development of orphanage children and promoting social awareness among students.
