Abstract

This community service project promoted sustainable education for early childhood by integrating family health literacy and STEAM-based learning in Pangkalpinang, Bangka Belitung Islands Province, Indonesia. Recognizing that sustainable development education should begin early, the program aimed to strengthen parents’ understanding of holistic child development, combining health, creativity, and environmental awareness. Inspired by the participatory principles of Participatory Action Research (PAR), the project involved three main stages they are planning, action, and observation to foster collaboration among parents, educators, and health professionals. Held on August 30, 2025, the one-day workshop was attended by 30 mothers from diverse backgrounds. Sessions were led by a doctor as well as a lecture in the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences of Universitas Bangka Belitung and an early childhood educator, covering children’s health topics, which are nutrition, sleep, and screen time, and STEAM-based hands-on learning using simple household materials. Key activities included the Engineering Building Challenge, where participants, as mothers, built creative projects, and the STEAM Fair, where students from the Wonderchild STEAM class performed their STEAM projects and experiments, that presented in English. The program ran effectively and encouraged active participation, collaboration, and enthusiasm among parents. Observations showed strong interest in integrating STEAM and health principles into family routines. This initiative highlights the importance of community-based education programs in Bangka Belitung and encourages future expansion to include teachers, localized STEAM modules, and sustained collaboration among educators, parents, and health experts.

Abstract

This study aims to explore English teachers’ experiences in implementing joyful learning amid administrative and bureaucratic constraints within schools. Employing a qualitative phenomenological design, the research investigates the meanings, challenges, and strategies developed by teachers in their daily instructional practices. The participants were 12 English teachers from various educational levels in North Sumatra, selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, classroom observations, and analysis of instructional as well as administrative documents. The data were analyzed using the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña involving data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that teachers perceive joyful learning as an approach that enhances student engagement, motivation, and positive classroom atmosphere; however, its implementation is frequently constrained by administrative burdens such as curriculum documentation, performance reports, and formal evaluation demands. Teachers experience tension between pedagogical ideals and bureaucratic expectations, yet they develop adaptive strategies including integrated planning, professional collaboration, and the use of simple technologies to sustain instructional quality. The study concludes that the successful implementation of joyful learning is strongly influenced by institutional support and educational policies that prioritize teachers’ pedagogical needs. Therefore, it is recommended that policymakers reconsider teachers’ administrative workload and strengthen professional development programs that promote a balanced integration of systemic demands and humanistic teaching practices.
