Abstract

Poetry writers can express ideas and feelings in written form, and present a unity of imaginative language expression with a beautiful rhythm. In the digital era like today, the opportunity to write and publish poetry is wide open. Unfortunately, not all students can take advantage of this opportunity. This also happened to students who are Sanggar Seni Bakat Bumoe (SSBM) members at Bumi Persada University, Lhokseumawe, Indonesia. To solve this problem, this community service team carried out service by training SSBM students to utilize technology to write and publish poetry. Poetry writing training for SSBM students is carried out through three stages: planning, implementation and evaluation. The planning stage includes collecting data on SSBM students' knowledge and enthusiasm in writing and discussing SSBM leadership elements to prepare a training activity plan. The implementation stage includes explaining the nature of quality poetry and the opportunity to be accepted in print and electronic media. The implementation stage also includes mentoring students in writing poetry and checking and providing comments and suggestions on student poetry. After revising the poems according to the comments and suggestions, students were also asked to publish them on Instagram. At the evaluation stage, the service team conducted an evaluation and interviewed SSBM leaders and students regarding the implementation of the training. The results of the interviews showed that this training contributed to increasing the enthusiasm of SSBM students to write as well as increasing their knowledge and skills in writing and publishing poetry.

Abstract

Teachers in urban areas are typically the only ones who can employ such advancements. Fortunately, some English teachers in rural areas in North Aceh, Indonesia, make an unusual effort to integrate technology into their lessons. This fact has not attracted much attention from researchers. This study then attempted to look into how those teachers transform themselves by utilizing technology in the instructional process. This study sheds light on how rural teachers-despite limited resources-adapt and transform their teaching practices through technology. By examining their strategies and challenges, this study provides valuable insights into grassroots-level educational innovation in underserved regions, filling a critical gap in the literature on technology integration in rural contexts. Seven English teachers at six junior high schools in the area participated in this study. The data were collected through semi-structured interviews. The collected data were then analyzed using descriptive qualitative approaches, including data collection, data condensation, data presentation, and conclusion. Data analysis showed that teachers transform themselves through online and offline training, self-directed learning, preparing online learning materials and media, and collaborating with parents, community members, and stakeholders. This study highlights the need for professional development for rural teachers, policy recommendations for improved infrastructure, funding, incentives, and community engagement to bridge the digital divide in education.
