Abstract

Effective cross-cultural communication is essential in multicultural environments, particularly in regions with high international engagement like Bali. This study explores the integration of the Tat Twam Asi philosophical principle in language education to enhance cultural awareness among German students in an international language program. Tat Twam Asi, meaning "You are me, and I am you," emphasizes empathy and social harmony, making it relevant for understanding communication norms in Balinese culture. This qualitative research was conducted at Institut Desain dan Bisnis Bali, involving 18 German students. Data were collected through observations, interviews, and document analysis, focusing on the use of German swear words in cross-cultural interactions. The findings indicate that integrating Tat Twam Asi in language education significantly improves students’ sensitivity to cultural norms, reducing the use of offensive expressions and fostering awareness of appropriate language use in Balinese society. Beyond academic implications, this approach is also relevant to the tourism and service industries, where effective communication plays a crucial role in fostering positive interactions between locals and international visitors. This study suggests that embedding cultural values in community-based language education can strengthen intercultural relationships and support sustainable social development. Future research should explore the broader application of this approach in training programs that promote cultural sensitivity in various professional sectors.

Abstract

This study examines the impact of Task-Based Language Teaching (TBLT) on improving speaking comprehension among 23 interior design students at Institut Desain dan Bisnis Bali (IDB Bali). Using a Classroom Action Research (CAR) approach based on Kemmis and McTaggart’s model, students participated in two learning cycles, where they engaged in online speaking tasks submitted via Google Drive. Speaking performance was evaluated across five key indicators: fluency, pronunciation, vocabulary, grammar, and comprehension. The results indicate a 3.3% improvement in speaking comprehension from Cycle 1 to Cycle 2, with fluency and pronunciation showing the most significant gains. These findings confirm that TBLT, combined with digital submission methods, enhances students' ability to communicate effectively in professional settings. Beyond academic outcomes, this study highlights the potential of TBLT as a tool for community-based training, particularly in supporting local creative industries. By equipping students with effective communication skills, this approach can improve client interactions, business negotiations, and cross-cultural collaborations in interior design and related fields. Future research should explore the long-term impact of TBLT and its integration into industry-driven language training programs.

Abstract

Digital transformation plays a critical role in supporting the sustainability and competitiveness of local enterprises in rural and tourism-based regions. This study explores the development of a digital platform designed to enhance the marketing capacity of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Baturiti Village, Bali. In response to limited digital visibility and market access among local entrepreneurs, a website was created to serve as a centralized platform that integrates business profiles, product galleries, WhatsApp communication, and Google Maps navigation. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, the research involved five selected MSMEs representing various sectors such as traditional food, retail, and crafts. The findings indicate that the platform effectively supported MSME digitalization through three core strategies: digital marketing integration, product quality presentation, and product diversification. The website not only increased visibility and customer engagement but also fostered community-based empowerment and collaboration. This model offers practical insights into how localized digital tools can bridge the digital divide and support inclusive economic development in rural tourism areas.

Abstract

This study explores the implementation of a coaching clinic designed to strengthen the digital branding capacity of culinary micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) at Graha Nawasena Denpasar, a community hub for inclusive entrepreneurship. Adopting a qualitative descriptive approach, data were collected through observation, interviews, and literature review, and analyzed using the Miles and Huberman interactive model. The coaching clinic focused on equipping MSMEs particularly those managed by persons with disabilities with practical knowledge in SEO strategies, visual branding, and storytelling for social media platforms. The findings indicate a marked improvement in participants’ confidence, digital literacy, and branding output. Participants were able to enhance their online presence by applying content creation techniques learned during the program. The initiative not only contributed to increasing the market visibility of MSMEs but also fostered a sense of empowerment and inclusion through a participatory, accessible learning environment. The case of Difel Café illustrates how community-based mentoring can lead to impactful and sustainable branding outcomes. This study provides practical insights for future interventions in digital MSME development, particularly in marginalized communities. It underscores the importance of inclusive, context-sensitive training programs in advancing Indonesia’s digital economy through grassroots empowerment.
