Abstract

This study explores the role of educational outreach programs implemented by MTS Al-Amin Kampung Pajak in empowering the local community. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, the research highlights how the school engages students, parents, and community members through activities such as tutoring sessions, literacy programs, parenting workshops, and youth leadership training. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and document analysis, involving various stakeholders, including educators, students, and community leaders. The findings indicate that these outreach initiatives have enhanced educational engagement, strengthened school-community relationships, and fostered the personal development of students. Despite challenges related to limited resources and sustainability, the programs have shown significant positive outcomes and serve as a model for community-based educational efforts in rural areas. This study emphasizes the potential of schools to act as agents of social change through inclusive, context-driven outreach strategies.

Abstract

Community Service Activities in utilizing IT for adolescents use simple media. The head of Bulu Mario Village provides opportunities for the community to enhance their knowledge and economy. IT training was chosen because it has several advantages, including the fact that the majority of adolescents have smartphones, making it easier for the community to market their products. The aim of the community service in Bulu Mario Village is to empower the community with Information Technology (IT) skills and abilities, helping them thrive in an increasingly IT-integrated modern era. Additionally, this program aims to build sustainable growth in Bulu Mario Village. The implementation of the community service uses the Participatory Action Research (PAR) method, which involves the participation of all stakeholders. The activities in this community service include data collection, counseling, training, and evaluation. The results of this service show that the program successfully increased literacy among the village community, especially adolescents. With IT, the community can engage in e-commerce, digital financial services, and various other online platforms, all of which contribute to inclusive economic growth, thereby making the community more prosperous. The impact of this program is that adolescents are able to boost their confidence in adopting and using IT to improve the quality of life in Bulu Mario Village, particularly for themselves, in creating opportunities for economic well-being
