Abstract

The rapid growth of digital platforms has transformed the way children access information and engage with media, with TikTok emerging as a significant influence, even among children aged 5–10 years. This study investigates the impact of TikTok on language development in this age group, focusing on vocabulary acquisition, communication skills, and social interaction. Using a qualitative research design, including observations and interviews with parents and educators, the study examines the dual outcomes of TikTok usage. Findings reveal that TikTok contributes positively by expanding vocabulary and encouraging creative expression. However, challenges include a dominance of informal language forms, reduced opportunities for meaningful verbal interactions, and potential dependency on visual and auditory stimuli. The study underscores the importance of balancing TikTok use with structured language learning methods to optimize its educational potential while mitigating its drawbacks. Insights from this research aim to guide parents, educators, and policymakers in fostering constructive digital media use among young children.

Abstract

This socialization activity on the introduction and benefits of the TOEFL function was conducted with the aim of enhancing the understanding of the students of SMA Swasta Teladan Pematangsiantar, particularly the eleventh-grade students, regarding the importance of the TOEFL test as one of the requirements in education and employment. TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) is an international standardized test that measures English language proficiency in four main skills: reading, listening, writing, and speaking. Unfortunately, many high school students still lack understanding about the function, format, and benefits of this test. Therefore, this socialization activity was designed to provide a comprehensive introduction to the concept of TOEFL, its test types (ITP, iBT, and CBT), question structure, and basic strategies for taking the test. Through material presentation, interactive discussions, and practice sessions, this activity is expected to motivate students to take English learning more seriously and to prepare themselves early. The results showed that students responded positively, with enthusiasm, and began to realize the importance of TOEFL as a valuable asset for their academic and professional future.
