Abstract

Based on the results of the needs analysis which revealed the inefficiency in transactions with the foreign customers due to limited English proficiency, this present study aims to develop an English training module for shopkeepers working at showrooms and workshops in the tourist village of Kasongan, Bantul Regency, Yogyakarta, Indonesia. By using the principles of ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation) instructional design model, the module was developed to hone the shopkeepers’ English skills in serving the foreign customers. Ten participants consisting of 2 showroom and workshop owners as well as 8 shopkeepers participated in this study. Observations and questionnaires were used to gather the data during the needs analysis phase. The data were analyzed and used to design and developed the materials for the module. The present study did not perform the Implementation and Evaluation phases as the 2 phases are going to be done in the subsequent study. This study, therefore, highlights the importance of continuous improvement in the instructional design based on the feedback from both the stakeholders and the target learners in order to ensure the effectiveness of the module..

Abstract

The community service programme was designed and conducted in response to the need of the school partner, SMP Negeri 2 Purwosari Gunungkidul, to improve the motivation of the teachers to provide quality teaching for the low-motivated students. The programme lasted from February 2023 until November 2023 and was carried out in the form of training sessions and mentoring sessions. In total, there were four main activities in the programme: a motivation-building session intended to remind the teachers of the altruistic purposes of the profession, the writing-up of a module on how to utilise technological tools to motivate students, a training session on how to effectively use technological tools in the class instruction, and team-teaching sessions where we team-taught classes with selected three teachers using technological tools to engage students in class. Though throughout the programme there were challenges on our part and the teachers, generally the programme was a success. The programme evaluation suggested that teachers were generally satisfied with the programme and were more confident in using technology in teaching. Future similar programmes can be conducted with school partners sharing similar characteristics with those of our present school partner, to allow a higher quality of class instruction and eventually students' learning.

Abstract

The community service programme was conducted in the form of a training on Basic English for teachers of SMA Bopkri 1 Yogyakarta. The training was conducted online through the Zoom platform and offline at the school. It was divided into ten sessions in the course of two months from 17 February 2022 up to 21 April 2022. Fifteen teachers participated in the training. The materials were understanding sermons, greetings and introduction, describing school facilities, doing school tours, describing school culture, hospitality, entertaining guests, doing small talks, and celebration of learning. The training was conducted in response to the need of the school to improve the English skills of the participants as the school had biweekly English sermons and the probability of having foreign guests. Generally, the training was a success and most of the participants who were adult learners and senior teachers with decades of teaching experiences demonstrated high motivation to learn despite the challenges. The use of three languages: Indonesian, Javanese, and English and the minimum use of technological tools were found to positively affect the participants’ motivation and learning in general. Flexibility in instructional process and relevance of materials were also key factors for success.

Abstract

This community service activity was conducted in the form of online training, focusing on using English for designing virtual travel videos. Participants of this nation-wide training are 25 certified tour guides from various regions in Indonesia, out of 180 registrants. With Atourin as the training partner, the training aimed to facilitate the tour guide participants to be able to make virtual tour videos in English to promote tourism destinations to foreigners who would enjoy them from their homes during the Covid-19 pandemic. The training was conducted for two months in seven meetings via the Zoom platform with each meeting lasting for 120 minutes. At the end of the training, the participants were able to make virtual travel videos promoting tourism destinations in their respective areas. As seen from the participants’ enthusiasm for learning and their activeness in each meeting, it could be concluded that the training was a success. The training refreshed the tour guide participants’ English and improved their mastery before coming back to the tourism industry post-pandemic. Evaluation of the overall programme was conducted as an effort to improve the quality of a similar programme in the future, including conducting hybrid activities synchronously combining offline and online modes, allowing flexibility where participants can choose the mode with which they are more convenient.
