Abstract

Beginning elementary school teachers face complex challenges when entering the workforce, particularly in classroom management, curriculum adaptation, and meeting professional expectations. Despite possessing theoretical knowledge from higher education, limited practical experience often undermines self-confidence and potentially hinders the quality of learning. This situation emphasizes the need for systematic professional mentoring to ensure a more effective transition to the workforce. Coaching and mentoring have emerged as relevant strategies capable of bridging the gap between theory and practice. Coaching focuses on reflective empowerment through structured dialogue, while mentoring emphasizes the transfer of professional skills and values from senior teachers to beginning teachers. The integrated application of both creates synergy in strengthening teacher capacity across cognitive, affective, and practical aspects. This literature review examines the effectiveness of coaching and mentoring as models for continuous professional development. The analysis shows that these strategies not only improve instructional skills but also strengthen beginning teachers' professional identity, foster a collaborative culture in schools, and positively impact student learning outcomes. With appropriate policy support, coaching and mentoring can be strategic instruments for improving the quality of elementary education. Therefore, the integration of these two approaches should be viewed as a long-term investment in teacher capacity building and achieving national education goals

Abstract

Penelitian terdahulu menekankan pentingnya mengintegrasikan latar sosiokultural serta potensi lokal Papua pada pembelajaran sains agar lebih kontekstual dan bermakna di dalam kelas. Akan tetapi, pembelajaran sains tidak boleh berhenti pada ranah kognitif. Kegiatan Pengabdian kepada Masyarakat (PkM) ini bertujuan untuk memberdayakan mahasiswa dalam hilirisasi potensi alam Papua berbasis sains sebagai upaya meningkatkan literasi pangan. Mitra dalam kegiatan ini adalah mahasiswa Universitas Internasional Papua (UIP). Metode pelaksanaan kegiatan menggunakan model Project-Based Learning (PjBL) yang terdiri dari tiga tahap yaitu persiapan (sosialisasi teoretis), pelaksanaan (praktik pembuatan produk), dan evaluasi. Peningkatan literasi pangan mahasiswa dari kegiatan ini diukur menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif deskriptif melalui teknik triangulasi data yang bersumber dari observasi dokumentasi, analisis finansial, dan wawancara mendalam (in-depth interview). Hasil pengabdian mengindikasikan adanya peningkatan literasi pangan mahasiswa secara signifikan yang mencakup tiga aspek yaitu literasi sains terapan (teknologi pangan), literasi keamanan pangan (food safety), dan literasi ekonomi pangan. Mahasiswa berhasil melakukan hilirisasi potensi agrikultur lokal meliputi pisang kepok, singkong, talas, dan bayam yang diolah menjadi enam varian produk kompetitif (Keripik Pisang Kepok, Keripik Singkong, Stick Singkong, Keripik Bayam, Sempol Tahu, dan Keripik Umbi Talas Saus Pedas) serta mampu membukukan keuntungan finansial dari hasil penjualan.

Abstract

Inclusive English language learning in the digital era has strategic urgency because it functions not only as a means of global communication but also as a gateway to equal education, employment, and social participation for students with disabilities. However, its implementation still faces various obstacles, ranging from pedagogical limitations of teachers, a lack of assistive technology infrastructure, to low digital literacy. This situation is further complicated by social stigma and gaps in technology access that widen inequalities. Although digital technology offers opportunities through features such as speech-to-text, screen readers, and interactive media, their utilization is often suboptimal due to limited resources and teacher preparedness. This study uses a qualitative approach with a literature review method to examine the challenges and solutions for inclusive English language learning. The analysis was conducted thematically by reviewing relevant academic literature from 2015–2025. The results of the study indicate that inclusive English language learning requires systemic transformation that includes strengthening teacher capacity, providing disability-friendly technology, improving infrastructure, and creating a stigma-free school culture. The principles of Universal Design for Learning (UDL) are recommended as a curriculum framework that ensures equal access for all learners from the outset. Thus, true inclusivity can only be realized through sustained pedagogical, technological, and policy integration.
