Abstract

This community service activity aims to enhance students' capacity in information management and news ethics through direct exploration of mass media institutions. The methods used include journalism training, mini research projects, and direct visits to various media outlets such as TVRI, Kompas TV, iNews, Tribun Timur, Herald.id, Derap Hukum, Media Sulsel, Ujung Jari, Koran Makassar, and Beritakota. Students were divided into 12 groups and conducted simple research related to current media issues. The results of this activity indicate a significant improvement in students' analytical skills, understanding of journalistic ethics, and ability to process information in the digital era. Moreover, direct interaction with professional journalists deepened their understanding of the challenges faced in the media industry. The project also successfully produced articles and reports that were published in local media and the department's official website. This activity demonstrates that field-based practical experience is essential in equipping students with relevant and adaptive skills to face the rapidly evolving dynamics of information in society.

Abstract

English speaking skills are an important aspect for Vocational High School (SMK) students to be better prepared to face the challenges of the world of work. However, many students experience problems in pronunciation, fluency, and confidence when speaking. This service program aims to improve students' speaking skills by utilizing an artificial intelligence-based application, ELSA Speak. This activity was carried out at SMK Telkom Makassar with participants from the extracurricular English Meeting Club (EMC). Participatory Action Research (PAR) method was applied in this program, which includes needs analysis, planning, training implementation, and evaluation using questionnaires. Results showed that the use of ELSA Speak had a positive impact on students' pronunciation, fluency and confidence. The majority of participants felt significant improvements in speaking, and they were more comfortable and confident in using English. Thus, artificial intelligence technology can be an innovative solution in improving vocational students' speaking skills in an effective, engaging, and easy-to-implement way in the learning process.
