Abstract

This study aims to delineate the values of local wisdom within the oral tradition of Umpasa from an ecolinguistic perspective. The ecolinguistic perspective is supported by communication ethnography studies. Data for this research were collected using observation methods, note-taking techniques (linguistics), complemented with ethnographic conversation methods and recording techniques (ethnography). Data analysis employed the extralingual correspondence method and contextual analysis techniques. The results of the analysis indicate that local wisdom within the oral tradition of Umpasa is manifested through tangible forms of local wisdom such as rocks and water, ulos motifs, and traditional houses; as well as through intangible forms of local wisdom such as proverbs, advice, and poetry. Each form of local wisdom manifests noble values that reflect the collective cultural appreciation of the society. This research examines the values of local wisdom embodied in the oral tradition of Umpasa within Batak society through an ecolinguistic approach and communication ethnography studies. The oral tradition of Umpasa is an inseparable part of the rich and diverse Batak culture, containing advice, proverbs, and songs laden with ancestral wisdom and teachings. Unlike physically tangible local wisdom, Umpasa exists as an intangible heritage transmitted orally, bringing deep understanding of the relationship between humans and nature and culture. These dimensions of local wisdom reflect the collective cultural appreciation of Batak society. The implications of this research involve understanding and promoting the preservation of local culture and enhancing appreciation for local wisdom within Batak society and beyond

Abstract

Mossak Batak Toba is a traditional martial art originating from the Batak Toba ethnic group in North Sumatra, passed down through generations. Characterized by swift, agile, and powerful movements, Mossak is not only a physical discipline but also embodies spiritual values such as courage, discipline, and loyalty. This study aims to identify and analyze the potential of Mossak Batak as a tourist attraction in Toba Regency from cultural, economic, and social perspectives, and to formulate strategies for optimizing its potential amid various existing challenges. This research employs a descriptive qualitative method, utilizing observation, interviews, and documentation as data collection techniques, with descriptive analysis and SWOT analysis as analytical tools. The findings reveal that Mossak Batak holds significant cultural value as an intangible heritage, economic potential through performances and cultural tourism training, and a social role in reinforcing local identity and pride. However, challenges such as limited digital promotion, the absence of educational materials, weak stakeholder coordination, and low community participation remain. The study concludes that with proper strategies—such as cross-sector collaboration, effective digital promotion, and the development of local cultural festivals—Mossak Batak can be elevated as a prominent tourist attraction in Toba Regency. This not only contributes to cultural preservation but also supports local economic growth and strengthens the global recognition of Batak cultural identity.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the strategy of the Tourism Office in developing the Pandaratan Beach tourist destination, Sarudik District, Central Tapanuli Regency. This study uses a qualitative method with a descriptive approach. Data were collected through direct field observations, in-depth interviews, and documentation of a number of informants deemed relevant, namely the Tourism Office, Pokdarwis, the community as managers, business actors, and tourists. The results show that the Tourism Office's strategy in developing Pandaratan Beach has been formulated based on the Central Tapanuli Regency Tourism Office's strategic plan (Renstra). This strategy focuses on equitable distribution of development infrastructure with a superior commodity-based approach, which aims to support tourist attractions and increase the contribution of the tourism sector to regional development. The strategy implementation is realized through various programs, including proposing basic infrastructure development, human resource development through training, destination promotion through social media, development of natural tourism products, and the formation and empowerment of tourism awareness groups (Pokdarwis) as drivers of tourism awareness campaigns. The implications of this study indicate that the development of Pandaratan Beach has not been fully optimal and still faces several obstacles, such as limited supporting facilities, less than optimal tourism services, and uneven community participation, so that the impact on the quality of tourism services, increasing community participation, and the sustainability of the destination still needs to be strengthened. Therefore, a comprehensive and sustainable strengthening of the strategy is needed through cooperation from related parties so that the Pandaratan Beach tourist destination can develop more optimally based on superior commodities.

Abstract

The concept of innovation is about something new; something different from what was practiced in teaching English all this time. Listening is one of the competencies that must be possessed in learning English. Along with the development of the times, teaching methods also developed. Educators are required to be able to develop teaching methods that can adjust to what is needed for this age, including in an effort to improve students' listening comprehension in learning English. Most of children have problems in listening. One of the listening’s problems is comprehension the speed of delivery is beyond the control of listeners. Besides, it is not always possible for learners to have words repeated. This is a main problem in learning situations. The small size of the learner vocabulary frequently impedes listening comprehension. The speaker does not always use words the listener knows. Sometimes when listeners encounter a new word, they stop to figure out the meaning of that word, and they therefore, miss the next part of the speech. Listeners may not recognize the signals that the speaker is using to move from one point to another especially if the learner is listening to a radio where he cannot see the facial expressions of the speaker. It can also be very challenging for listeners to concentrate in a foreign language. From this reason, educators should have an innovative way to overcome the problem. Students rarely listen to anything without an expectation of what’s coming next. So the innovative way to solve those problems is students need a bit of preparation before they get stuck into a listening task and they need a reason to listen. If the students have Internet access teacher can set longer listening tasks as homework. They can listen to extracts of 20 minutes or so in preparation for a class discussion the following lesson. Although students do sometimes become anxious when they hear the unfamiliar, texts downloaded from the Internet are easy for the students to access by themselves for personal study at another time.

Abstract

The aim of this research is to determine the supporting and inhibiting factors in developing a tarabunga tourist attraction based on local community participation. This research uses a qualitative method with a descriptive approach and data collection techniques through observations and interviews with nine informants. The results of this research describe the supporting and inhibiting factors in efforts to develop tourist attractions based on local community participation. Supporting factors include the provision of opportunities to the community, the will of the community, the ability of the community, cooperation and support from the government. The supporting factors for developing this tourist attraction are very good to be implemented and applied at the location of the Tarabunga tourist attraction and this is done well by some of the community. Meanwhile, inhibiting factors include different work backgrounds, causing individuals to be busy, lack of knowledge and insight regarding the development of the tarabunga tourist attraction, making it difficult for them to participate in the development of the tarabunga tourist attraction, lack of funds or limited funds making it difficult to implement tourism development programs and infrastructure is hampered. Efforts are being made to develop the Tarabunga tourist attraction based on community participation. We must pay attention to what are indicators of community participation-based tourist attraction development, namely the formation of Village-Owned Enterprises (BUMDES), deliberation and outreach, economic empowerment for local communities, and the importance of maintaining the culture and environment of tourist attractions. Community participation in efforts to develop the Tarabunga tourist attraction can be done through various forms of contribution, such as providing ideas, energy, expertise, money and goods.

This study uses qualitative research methods and uses SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats) analysis with three informants. The results of this study depict that developing tourism potential in Prongil Julu village has several advantages such as fresh air, cultural attractions, quite complete facilities, hospitality of people and entrance to the capital of Pakpak Bharat regent. However, there are also weaknesses such as underdeveloped infrastructure, lack of tourism promotion as well as lack of public interest and attention towards tourism. There are also opportunities to develop tourism through community tourism training, partnerships with the private sector and leveraging the benefits of Lae Mbilulu Falls to attract tourists. However, threats such as competition with destinations other than Prongil Julu Village and environmental damage also need attention. Based on these SWOT results, the author proposes a number of strategies to develop tourism potential such as infrastructure development, increased tourism promotion, tourism product development and cooperation with the private sector and Pakpak Bharat District Tourism Board.
