Abstract

This study aims to examine the pedagogical approaches used in teaching Mandarin to first-year students of the Mandarin Applied Bachelor Program at Universitas Prima Indonesia. The research method used is descriptive qualitative through classroom observation and interviews with teachers and students. The main focus of this study is to identify the learning methods applied, assess their effectiveness, and understand the challenges faced in the process of mastering the four language skills: listening (听 tīng), speaking (说 shuō), reading (读 dú), and writing (写 xiě). The results of the study indicate that the pedagogical approaches used include Communicative Language Teaching (CLT), scaffolding, direct method, audio-lingual, and grammar translation method. These approaches encourage active student involvement, improve understanding of language concepts, and create a communicative and collaborative learning environment. Several challenges are still found, such as the lack of variation in learning media, less conducive learning time, and differences in student motivation levels. This study suggests the integration of interactive digital media and project-based learning approaches as solutions. The novelty of this study lies in the reflective integration of classical pedagogical approaches with the practical needs of business communication in the global era, as well as the direct mapping between learning time, student sitting position, and level of learning enthusiasm, which have not been widely explored in the local context of Mandarin learning in Indonesia.

Abstract

The utilization of digital technology is a key factor in enhancing the competitiveness of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in the global economic era. This community service research aims to empower MSME actors in Sumber Rejo Village, Batubara Regency, North Sumatra, through the optimization of digital marketing as a means of business communication. The partners consist of 26 MSMEs producing "keripik pisang gosong" (caramelized banana chips) and "emping" (melinjo crackers), who previously relied on conventional marketing methods. The implementation method utilized a participatory approach, including needs identification, technical training (content creation, social media management, and e-commerce registration), and intensive mentoring for 1.5 months. The results show a significant increase in digital literacy and technical skills among participants. A total of 18 MSMEs successfully expanded their market reach outside the region and reported a 15-30% increase in sales. Despite facing challenges such as limited internet access and technological adaptation issues among older participants, the program successfully laid the foundation for digital transformation in rural areas. In conclusion, the sustainable integration of digital marketing strategies and the formation of local digital communities are essential to maintain business consistency. This program recommends infrastructure support from the local government to support the sustainability of the MSME digital economy in Batubara Regency.
