Abstract

This community service program was conducted at Samakisast Wittaya School, Sadao, Thailand, to address the lack of students’ interpersonal readiness for higher education and employment. The activity aimed to strengthen soft skills such as professional demeanor, communication, teamwork, and courteous speech. Using participatory action research integrated with community-based research, service-learning, and asset-based community development, the one-day program engaged sixty students through tutorials and rotating practice stations focusing on appearance, posture, handshake protocol, and polite expressions. The results showed high participation, improved understanding of the importance of soft skills, and observable behavioral enhancement during coached demonstrations. Tangible outputs included behavioral rubrics and photo documentation for continued use. The program concludes that a participatory, low-cost, and asset-based model effectively embeds soft-skills training into school routines and can serve as a foundation for sustained teacher-led reinforcement and future quantitative evaluation.

Abstract

Digital transformation in Islamic banking opens significant opportunities to improve efficiency, financial inclusion, and customer satisfaction. However, despite this progress, the adoption of Islamic mobile banking still lags behind that of conventional banks. This study aims to analyze several determinants influencing the intention to adopt Islamic mobile banking in Samarinda using the UTAUT2 theoretical framework. This study employed a quantitative approach, with 165 respondents selected through conventional sampling. Data collection used an online questionnaire, which was then processed using the SEM-PLS technique. Data analysis showed that habit, social influence, enabling conditions, hedonic motivation, price value, effort expectancy, and performance expectancy significantly influenced intention to use. Gender, age, and experience were shown to moderate some of the relationships between variables on intention to use. These findings provide a basis for developing digitalization strategies for Islamic banks that are more adaptive to consumer preferences.
