Abstract

This study aims to develop a board game as an interactive English learning media for elementary school students in rural Papua. At the elementary level, English has been mandated as a compulsory subject; however, interest and motivation to learn remain low in the rural regions of Papua. The availability of English teaching media that is relevant to the local context of Papua's children is still limited. This research employed the research and development method with the Plomp model, which includes investigation, design, realization, evaluation and revision, and implementation phases. This study involved 15 elementary indigenous Papuan students and 2 teachers. Validation sheets, learning tests, and interview serve as the research instruments. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. The results indicate that the board game is feasible to use as an English introduction media for elementary school students in the rural Papua region, especially South Papua. Media validity tests show a score of 84.25%, while practicality validation indicates 76.5% both are in the high category. Additionally, learning outcomes demonstrate that 80% of students perform at a good level, confirming the media's effectiveness. It can be concluded that the Basic English Board Game is a valid and appropriate tool for introducing English to elementary students in the rural regions of South Papua.

Abstract

Nasem is an indigenous Papuan village endowed with coastal resources, particularly mangrove forests, which possess considerable potential for sustainable utilization. Preliminary observations indicated that the local community had not previously engaged in any form of mangrove use. To address challenges related to mangrove utilization and conservation—both to support ecosystem sustainability and to improve the livelihoods of coastal residents—a community service program was implemented. The program focused on raising awareness of the ecological and economic importance of mangroves through environmentally friendly practices, specifically training in ecoprint production using mangrove leaves. The activities were conducted at the Nasem village hall and involved local community members as participants. The implementation followed three main stages: preparation, process, and outcomes. Educational sessions highlighted the role of mangroves in maintaining environmental balance as well as their benefits for local communities. As ecoprint product training had never been introduced in Nasem, participants demonstrated high levels of enthusiasm and engagement. Evaluation results showed a 90% increase in knowledge regarding ecoprint and revealed that 85% of participants were able to independently produce ecoprint products by creatively designing patterns from mangrove leaves.
