Abstract

This study explores the difficulties in English language comprehension faced by children of Indonesian migrant workers in Malaysia. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, data were collected through questionnaires and interviews with sixth-grade students in a non-formal education center. The findings reveal five major challenges: (1) multilingual environment, which hinders English language comprehension due to the influence of other languages; (2) limited access to education, resulting in difficulties in English language comprehension due to inadequate facilities and resources; (3) social and economic factors, which impede English language comprehension due to limited access to technology and internet; (4) lack of authentic English exposure, leading to difficulties in English language comprehension due to insufficient exposure to authentic English language; and (5) psychological factors, including motivation and self-confidence, which affect English language comprehension due to anxiety and low self-esteem. These factors are interrelated and rooted in the students’ linguistic environment, educational infrastructure, and socio-emotional context. The study underscores the need for inclusive, context-responsive instructional strategies and improved educational support systems to enhance the English listening skills of marginalized learners.

Abstract

The 2025 UINSU Community Service Program research in Sempajaya Village was carried out through training in making ecoprint tote bags as an effort to develop creativity while strengthening the economic literacy of elementary school children. This activity utilized natural materials such as leaves and flowers commonly found in the village environment, so that children could learn to recognize the potential of their natural surroundings as a source of creative works with practical and economic value. The training was conducted in three main stages: preparation, implementation, and reflection. During the implementation stage, children were introduced to the concept of ecoprinting, pounding techniques, and the steps involved in making ecoprinted tote bags through lectures, question and answer sessions, and hands-on practice. The results of the activity showed an increase in the participants' creativity, as evident in their ability to arrange motifs, select natural materials, and produce tote bags with attractive patterns. In addition, this activity also fostered a basic understanding of the economic value of creative products, thereby supporting the formation of independence and an entrepreneurial spirit from an early age. The reflection stage showed that the children were able to identify the process, benefits, and challenges they faced. Thus, ecoprint tote bags proved to be an effective educational tool in integrating creativity, economic literacy, and love for the environment for the children of Sempajaya Village.

Abstract

Perkembangan ekonomi digital menuntut pelaku UMKM untuk meningkatkan keterlihatan usaha melalui pemanfaatan platform berbasis teknologi. Rendahanya visibilitas bisnis menyebabkan terbatasnya akses konsumen, minimnya informasi lokasi, serta lemahnya daya saing, terutama pada wilayah pedesaan. Kegiatan Kuliah Kerja Nyata (KKN) UINSU 2025 di Desa Sempajaya terkhusus dusun V dan VII, mengimplementasikan program pendampingan pendaftaran UMKM di Google Maps sebagai strategi untuk memperluas jangkauan informasi usaha secara daring. Metode pelaksanaan meliputi pendataan pelaku UMKM, sosialisasi literasi digital, pembuatan dan pendaftaran akun google, pengisian profil bisnis pada Google Business Profile, unggah dokumentasi visual, serta verifikasi titik lokasi usaha. Hasil pelaksanaan menunjukkan peningkatan pemahaman dan kemampuan pelaku UMKM dalam mengelola identitas digital, serta bertambahnya eksposur usaha melalui pencarian berbasis lokasi pada platform google maps. Program ini berkontribusi terhadap peningkatan kredibilitas usaha, kemudahan akses informasi konsumen, dan percepatan digitalisasi ekonomi desa secara berkelanjutan.Kata Kunci: Pendampingan UMKM, Google Maps, Visibilitas Usaha, Pemberdayaan Digital, Desa Sempajaya
