Salah satunya adalah homestay yang merupakan fasilitas pendukung daya tarik wisata di suatu destinasi. Berdasarkan wawancara dengan Walinagari Salibutan Lubuk Alung bahwa masyarakat biasanya sebagian besar menggantungkan ekonominya dalam aktivitas pembalakan liar, namun seiring dengan munculnya aktivitas-aktivitas kepariwisataan di Nagari ini masyarakat sudah mulai sadar dengan masuknya edukasi-edukasi dari pemuda penggerak masyarakat dan tim akademisi dalam kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat.

Abstract

Issues about education in the urban areas and rural areas are crucial in the Indonesian context. The reason is the differentiation of the quality of the Indonesia education across the country because of those areas. During their practice, English teachers in that area face many limitations that hinder the process of teaching and learning. This case study aimed to explore two English teachers’ challenges in teaching in rural areas of Indonesia and how they overcome those challenges to maximize their role as a teacher through their teaching reflection on interview and document analysis. This is significant for giving the teachers’ views on facing the challenges in every condition of teaching English and for giving a picture to the government about the real condition of teaching English in the rural areas. The result showed that English teachers tried to deal with their own teaching condition and institution, their students, and socio-cultural conditions around them. As the solution, teachers overcome those problems by strengthening their roles as a teacher and understanding social pedagogy. However, there is still a need for English teachers to get more training related to their job in teaching English in rural areas.

Conducted at SMAN 1 Batang Anai, Padang Pariaman, the program involved 36 Japanese Club members and one teacher, aiming to enhance knowledge of ikebana philosophy and techniques, foster creativity, build self-confidence, and broaden perspectives on simple entrepreneurial opportunities. The experiential learning approach applied 30% theory and 70% practice, including material delivery, demonstrations, hands-on practice, discussions, gallery walks, and evaluations. Data were collected via a five-point Likert-scale questionnaire, rubric-based assessments of student works, open-ended questions, and facilitator observations, analyzed using descriptive quantitative methods and qualitative thematic analysis. The results showed that the vast majority of students gained new knowledge and found the material easy to follow. Many students reported increased motivation and self-confidence, and a significant portion grasped Ikebana's basic philosophy. Assessment of their works revealed balanced compositions and notable creativity, although neatness posed a technical challenge. Qualitative findings highlighted high enthusiasm and positive reflections on creative economy opportunities. In conclusion, Ikebana training is an effective multidisciplinary strategy for promoting cultural literacy and developing 21st-century skills, thereby contributing to the achievement of quality education.   Abstrak Pelatihan ikebana, seni merangkai bunga tradisional Jepang, berpotensi sebagai media pembelajaran kreatif yang mengintegrasikan budaya, seni, dan pendidikan abad ke-21.

Abstract

Geopark Silokek memiliki potensi visual yang kuat melalui lanskap karst, sungai, air terjun, hutan, dan aktivitas wisata alam. Namun, kemampuan pelaku wisata lokal dalam mengemas potensi tersebut menjadi konten digital berbasis cerita masih terbatas. Kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini bertujuan meningkatkan keterampilan visual storytelling bagi pengelola wisata, Pokdarwis, pemuda lokal, dan pelaku promosi destinasi. Metode kegiatan meliputi observasi awal, pelatihan konsep visual storytelling, praktik foto dan video lapangan, pendampingan penyusunan narasi konten, serta evaluasi berbasis produk. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan bahwa peserta mampu membedakan dokumentasi biasa dengan konten promosi berbasis cerita, serta menghasilkan rancangan konten digital yang menampilkan keindahan alam, pengalaman wisata, keselamatan, dan identitas lokal Geopark Silokek. Pelatihan ini menunjukkan bahwa visual storytelling dapat menjadi strategi praktis dalam memperkuat promosi digital destinasi berbasis masyarakat. Keberlanjutan program perlu diarahkan pada pengelolaan kalender konten, konsistensi identitas visual, dan kolaborasi antaraktor lokal.
