Abstract

This community service activity aims to improve the understanding of traders at the Lok Baintan Floating Market regarding tourism potential and digital literacy as a strategy to strengthen the destination's attractiveness and competitiveness. The target partners are floating market traders who interact directly with tourists, but most of them lack an adequate understanding of tourism concepts, service quality, and the use of digital media for promotion. The program was implemented through interactive lectures and participatory discussions. Evaluation was carried out through participant feedback and a comparison of knowledge before and after the activity. Results showed an increase in participants' understanding of the importance of tourism, cleanliness, service quality to tourists, and basic skills in creating simple promotional content through social media, as evidenced by a comparison of pretests and posttests distributed. Participants demonstrated high motivation in this activity and will apply it in their daily lives as traders at the Lok Baintan floating market. Observations after the training also showed improvements in the content produced by several participants. Further mentoring in the form of ongoing digital content training and strengthening promotional networks is needed to optimize the program's impact.

Developments in information technology and social media have transformed the way tourism destinations are recognized and promoted. Tourists' digital activities, such as uploading photos, videos, and reviews on various platforms, play a crucial role in increasing destination awareness and image. This is also true for tourism at the Lok Baintan floating market. Optimizing digital power is crucial to strengthening the floating market's presence and appeal asa unique tourist destination. This study aims to analyze the digital tourism communication model in increasing tourism awareness at the Lok Baintan Floating Market. A descriptive qualitative method with a constructivist paradigm was applied in this study. The research finding shows that integrating the AISAS (Attention, Interest, Search, Action, Share) model with the User-Generated Content (UGC) concept provides a comprehensive explanation of digital tourist behavior. Each AISAS stage is dynamic, starting with Attention and Interest, triggered by visual and narrative content from visitors and local influencers that showcase the authenticity of Banjar culture.

Abstract

Penelitian ini mengkaji bentuk komunikasi budaya nonverbal dalam tata ruang masyarakat Baduy Dalam sebagai wujud simbolisme, identitas, dan adaptasi budaya. Sebagai komunitas adat yang menolak modernisasi, masyarakat Baduy Dalam mengekspresikan nilai-nilai, norma, dan sistem kepercayaannya melalui penataan ruang yang khas, baik dalam skala rumah tangga maupun struktur pemukiman secara kolektif. Pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode observasi partisipatif dan studi pustaka digunakan untuk memahami makna simbolik di balik struktur ruang seperti leuit (lumbung padi), rumah adat, jalur jalan, serta posisi geografis antar kampung. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa tata ruang tidak sekadar bersifat fungsional, melainkan merepresentasikan struktur sosial, relasi kekuasaan, dan ketaatan terhadap nilai kosmologis masyarakat Baduy Dalam. Selain itu, tata ruang juga menjadi strategi adaptif terhadap tekanan eksternal, seperti pariwisata dan kebijakan pembangunan, tanpa mengorbankan prinsip adat. Temuan ini menegaskan bahwa ruang fisik dalam budaya tradisional merupakan medium komunikasi budaya yang sarat makna dan berperan dalam mempertahankan identitas komunal. Penelitian ini berkontribusi pada kajian komunikasi budaya, khususnya dalam memahami peran ruang sebagai wacana nonverbal dalam masyarakat adat. This study explores the forms of nonverbal cultural communication embedded in the spatial organization of the Baduy Dalam community, highlighting its symbolic, identity-forming, and adaptive dimensions. As an indigenous society that resists modernization, the Baduy Dalam express their values, norms, and belief systems through a distinctive arrangement of space—both in domestic settings and communal village structures. A qualitative approach was employed, utilizing participant observation and literature review to uncover the symbolic meanings behind spatial elements such as the leuit (rice barn), traditional houses, pathways, and the geographical positioning of villages. The findings reveal that spatial arrangements serve not only functional purposes but also represent social hierarchies, power relations, and adherence to cosmological beliefs. Furthermore, spatial organization emerges as a cultural strategy for adapting to external pressures such as tourism and government development policies, without compromising traditional values. This research affirms that physical space in traditional culture functions as a medium of rich cultural communication and plays a key role in sustaining communal identity. The study contributes to the field of cultural communication by emphasizing space as a meaningful nonverbal discourse within indigenous communities.

Abstract

The sale and purchase agreement (akad) has long been a traditional practice in the daily lives of the Banjar community. This study aims to examine the implementation of akad by Generation Z through a transactional communication approach and to analyse how its sustainability contributes to future generations in Banjar society. Using a descriptive qualitative method, this research investigates the construction of meaning surrounding akad in everyday transactional interactions. Data were collected through Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) and in-depth interviews with Generation Z participants. In addition, source triangulation was conducted by involving parents, teachers, community leaders, and sellers. The findings indicate that Generation Z continues to consistently apply akad in their daily transactions. Moreover, informants from all generations emphasised the importance of preserving this practice, as it aligns with the religious and cultural values of the local community.

Abstract

Social media has become an integral part of modern life, particularly for Generation Z as digital natives who actively engage with platforms such as Instagram, TikTok, and WhatsApp. While social media offers opportunities for interaction, information access, and self-expression, its impact on academic achievement remains paradoxical, as it can both support learning and create distractions. This study examines the influence of social support, motivation, and self-regulation on academic achievement, with social media usage patterns as mediating variable. Grounded in Uses and Gratifications Theory and Self-Determination Theory, this research employs a quantitative explanatory approach using PLS-SEM. Data were collected through a questionnaire from 300 undergraduate students at private universities in Jakarta. The findings indicate that social support, intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, and self-regulation significantly influence academic achievement, with self-regulation as the strongest predictor. Furthermore, the intensity and purpose of social media use significantly mediates these relationships, showing that academic outcomes depend on how students align social media use with learning goals. This study highlights that social media can function as a supportive academic tool when used purposefully. The novelty lies in integrating UGT and SDT with behavior constructs of self-regulation and social support to explain how mediated social media use shapes academic achievement among Generation Z students in Jakarta.

Abstract

Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) often face challenges in understanding branding concepts and utilizing live streaming as a digital marketing strategy. Limited digital literacy and technical readiness reduce the competitiveness of MSMEs in the digital marketplace. This community service project aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of creative branding training and live streaming strategies in enhancing MSMEs’ knowledge and skills in digital marketing, using a descriptive qualitative approach through a participatory case study design. The subjects included 50 MSME actors. Data were collected through participatory observation, semi-structured interviews, and pre- and post-training evaluation questionnaires. The questionnaires were developed based on a competency evaluation framework encompassing branding knowledge, understanding of digital marketing strategies, social media skills, technical and non-technical readiness for live streaming, and self-confidence levels. Data were analyzed using thematic analysis for qualitative data and descriptive quantitative analysis for survey data. The results indicate that the training significantly improved participants’ understanding of branding, ability to design marketing strategies based on the 7P framework, and practical live streaming skills. Live streaming simulations, in particular, enhanced participants’ confidence in engaging with digital audiences. The study concludes that creative branding and live streaming training effectively increase MSMEs’ readiness to independently implement digital marketing strategies.

Abstract

Rebranding often becomes a strategic imperative, not merely an option, especially when a brand faces massive internal crises and market challenges. This qualitative study examines the rebranding strategy employed by Babe Bambang Pranoto, founder of PT Kutus-Kutus Herbal, in transforming the brand from "Kutus Kutus" to "Sanga Sanga". Through an in-depth analysis of autobiographical narratives, social media content, and public interviews, this research reveals how a defensive-progressive rebranding approach was implemented. The findings indicate that this strategy was constructed and communicated in social media as a means of restoring consumer trust, particularly through authentic storytelling and the strategic use of digital platforms, rather than through empirically measured consumer responses. The brand's repositioning into the premium segment, underpinned by locally resonant cultural symbolism articulated as a branding narrative, and integrate cultural symbolism in support of premium market repositioning. This study provides a valuable conceptual and analytical insights for understanding crisis-driven rebranding, especially for heritage brands navigating legitimacy, authenticity, and identity reconstruction in the digital era. These conclusions are derived from interpretive narrative and communication analysis rather than direct measurement of consumer attitudes or market performance.

Abstract

The research problem addresses how traditional arts struggle to remain economically viable and relevant in modern, multicultural markets while navigating the tension between cultural authenticity and commercialization. The main objective of this study is to analyze the practices of Wayang Women as a representation of adaptive traditional art in Southeast Asia. Supporting objectives include identifying the operational challenges faced in product and market development and evaluating strategic solutions to these obstacles. This study adopts an interpretive qualitative case study approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews conducted in a flexible and non-rigid manner to elicit honest, detailed information. The study involved four informants selected purposively based on their direct engagement with the subject. Primary data was supplemented by documentation, including relevant literature, project documents, and photographs. Data validity was ensured through methodological triangulation, cross-verifying the interview transcripts with the collected documentary evidence. The data reveals that Wayang Women integrates traditional art preservation with contemporary feminist and multicultural themes. The findings indicate that its development faces specific structural challenges: limited resources, a narrow target market segmentation, and an ongoing dilemma between maintaining cultural authenticity and pursuing commercial viability. The study interprets Wayang Women's approach not as a direct ideological confrontation, but as a collaborative negotiation between tradition and innovation. While the study does not assess long-term sustainability outcomes, it suggests a potential communication pathway through which traditional performing arts may enhance their visibility and relevance within niche multicultural markets.
