Abstract

This study aims to analyze the interest and perceptions of teacher welfare among 52 respondents. Quantitative analysis revealed that 69.2% of respondents are highly interested in becoming teachers, while 30.8% are moderately interested. These findings reflect a strong commitment from the younger generation toward the teaching profession, despite significant concerns about financial welfare. Qualitative analysis identified two main themes: financial welfare and personal motivation. Many respondents felt that the salary they receive is not proportional to the responsibilities they bear, while intrinsic motivation, such as a desire to contribute to education, serves as a major driving factor in choosing this career. This study aligns with previous findings emphasizing the importance of financial welfare in job satisfaction for teachers but also offers new insights by highlighting personal motivation as a decisive factor. The conclusion of this research suggests that greater attention to teachers' financial welfare is necessary to attract high-quality individuals to the teaching profession and to create a better learning environment. Recommendations for policymakers include increasing compensation and support for teachers while considering their intrinsic motivations.

Abstract

Di era digital, kemampuan berpikir komputasional adalah keterampilan fundamental yang harus dikembangkan sejak usia dini. Anak-anak yang familiar dengan teknologi cenderung lebih mudah memahami konsep dasar komputasi seperti algoritma, logika, dan pemecahan masalah. Penggunaan alat bantu digital dan aktivitas bermain yang dirancang secara khusus dapat secara signifikan menstimulasi kemampuan berpikir komputasional. Oleh karena itu, penting bagi para pendidik dan orang tua untuk secara strategis mengintegrasikan teknologi dan kegiatan komputasional ke dalam pendidikan anak usia dini. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengeksplorasi bentuk kegiatan dan media yang dapat digunakan dalam melatih kemampuan berpikir komputasional. Penelitian ini merupakan systematic literature review dengan pendekatan PRISMA. Literatur didapatkan dari berbagai perpustakaan digital seperti Google Scholar, Scopus, ResearchGate dan Springer yang terbit di antara 2018-2024. Berdasarkan 6 naskah terpilih, disebutkan bahwa terdapat berbagai kegiatan seperti permainan konvensional dan pemrograman yang digunakan untuk menstimulasi kemampuan berpikir komputasional. Media yang digunakan antara lain building block, visual programming application dan robot.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi kualitas desain portofolio digital yang dikembangkan oleh mahasiswa non-Teknologi Informasi (non-TI) menggunakan pendekatan evaluasi heuristik berdasarkan 10 prinsip Nielsen. Portofolio digital yang dianalisis dibuat menggunakan platform Google Sites dan dievaluasi oleh tiga orang evaluator independen dengan menggunakan instrumen observasi berbasis heuristik. Penelitian ini bersifat deskriptif kualitatif dengan pendekatan evaluatif. Sebanyak 25 portofolio dianalisis untuk mengidentifikasi pelanggaran prinsip desain antarmuka pengguna (UI) dan menyusun rekomendasi perbaikan. Hasil evaluasi menunjukkan bahwa mayoritas portofolio memiliki pelanggaran pada tiga heuristik utama, yaitu Aesthetic and Minimalist Design (skor rata-rata 3,5), Consistency and Standards (3,1), dan Help and Documentation (3,0). Pelanggaran ini menunjukkan bahwa mahasiswa non-TI cenderung mengutamakan aspek visual yang berlebihan tanpa mempertimbangkan keterbacaan, konsistensi navigasi, dan dukungan pengguna. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa pemahaman tentang desain antarmuka masih rendah di kalangan mahasiswa non-TI dan menyarankan integrasi literasi desain UI ke dalam kurikulum atau pelatihan literasi digital. Evaluasi heuristik terbukti efektif sebagai metode asesmen cepat terhadap kualitas desain antarmuka karya digital mahasiswa

Abstract

Punden Rejo Village, located in Tanjung Morawa District, Deli Serdang Regency, possesses significant economic potential for the development of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) due to its strategic location along North Sumatra's main transportation routes. However, the majority of MSME operators in this village face constraints in adapting to digital technology, particularly in marketing and product branding, which have become vital necessities in the digital 4.0 era. One of the primary challenges is the limited graphic design skills, an essential element for attracting consumer interest through professional product packaging and promotional materials. This community service initiative aims to enhance the graphic design capabilities of MSME operators in Punden Rejo Village through training using Adobe Express application. The activity involved 30 local MSME operators as partners. The implementation methods included situation analysis through interviews and observations, development of training modules, and practical workshops conducted at the Punden Rejo Village Hall. The training program covered basic graphic design introduction, hands-on practice in creating product packaging designs, digital banners, and promotional posters using Adobe Express. The training results demonstrated a significant improvement in participants' understanding and graphic design skills, reflected in their ability to produce attractive and targeted designs. Challenges related to device limitations and internet connectivity were addressed through an intensive mentoring approach. The use of Adobe Express proved effective as a graphic design solution for beginners, supporting the creativity of MSME operators in producing competitive designs for the digital market. This training is expected to encourage the sustainable digital transformation of MSMEs in Punden Rejo Village.
