Abstract

English language proficiency is a strategic requirement for environmental education-based institutions such as the Puntondo Environmental Education Center (PPLH) in Takalar, South Sulawesi, which actively interacts with international tourists and researchers from around the world. The English Language Training Program for PPLH Puntondo staff is designed to improve cross-language communication skills, strengthen service professionalism, and expand the reach of environmental knowledge dissemination. This article aims to describe the implementation process, achievements, and impact of the training on participants. The program lasted for three months (July–September 2025) with 24 face-to-face sessions and a practice-based, participatory approach. Results showed significant improvements in self-confidence, speaking skills, and mastery of environmental thematic vocabulary. This program has proven effective in building staff communicative competence and provides a sustainable learning model that can be replicated by other environmental institutions.

Abstract

This study aims to improve students' literacy skills at Sekolah Pustaka Lontara through interactive literacy-based learning. The issue of low reading interest and literacy comprehension among students has prompted the need for more effective and enjoyable teaching methods. The interactive learning implemented includes activities such as group reading, group discussions, and educational games designed to stimulate interest and reading skills. The research uses a qualitative approach with techniques such as observation, interviews, and analysis of students' learning outcomes. The results show a significant improvement in students' literacy comprehension, reflected in literacy test results and student responses to reading activities. The use of interactive learning also encourages students to be more actively engaged and enjoy the learning process. This program demonstrates that an interactive approach can be an effective solution to enhancing literacy skills in schools facing challenges related to resources and student interest. The study recommends integrating interactive methods into the curriculum to achieve more optimal literacy outcomes.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to examine the influence of digital marketing and Electronic Word of Mouth (E-WOM) on consumer purchase decisions in marketplace platforms, with brand trust positioned as a mediating variable.   Research Method: The study adopts a quantitative research approach. The sample consists of 361 Generation Z students enrolled in the Economics Education Study Program (cohorts 2022, 2023, and 2024) at the Faculty of Economics and Business, State University of Makassar, Indonesia. Data were collected using structured questionnaires and analyzed using Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) to assess direct and mediating relationships among digital marketing, E-WOM, brand trust, and purchase decisions. Results and Discussion: The results indicate that digital marketing, Electronic Word of Mouth (E-WOM), and brand trust have a positive and significant effect on consumer purchase decisions in marketplace platforms. Moreover, brand trust plays a significant mediating role in the relationships between digital marketing and purchase decisions, as well as between E-WOM and purchase decisions. These findings suggest that effective digital communication and positive online consumer interactions enhance trust, which in turn strengthens consumers’ willingness to make purchasing decisions. Implications: In practice, the findings highlight the importance for marketplace platforms and digital marketers of prioritizing trust-building strategies through credible digital marketing content and managing positive E-WOM. For policymakers and educational institutions, the results provide insights into consumer behavior among Generation Z in digital environments. Theoretically, this study reinforces the role of brand trust as a key mechanism linking digital engagement and purchasing behavior. Future research is recommended to expand the sample to other demographic groups, explore additional mediating or moderating variables, and apply longitudinal designs to capture changes in consumer trust and behavior over time.

Abstract

Anggur laut merupakan salah satu potensi sumber daya pesisir yang dapat dikembangkan menjadi produk pangan bernilai tambah. Namun, pemanfaatannya oleh masyarakat di Pulau Barrang Caddi masih menghadapi kendala pada diversifikasi produk, pencatatan keuangan, penentuan harga jual, serta kesiapan pemasaran. Kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini bertujuan meningkatkan keberdayaan mitra melalui diversifikasi produk olahan anggur laut, penguatan manajemen usaha, dan peningkatan kesiapan pemasaran. Kegiatan dilaksanakan menggunakan pendekatan partisipatif melalui pelatihan, praktik langsung, penerapan teknologi, dan pendampingan pada aspek produksi, manajemen, dan pemasaran. Teknologi yang diterapkan berupa aplikasi pencatatan keuangan berbasis Microsoft Excel yang dikustomisasi sesuai kebutuhan usaha mitra dan dilengkapi fitur pencatatan transaksi, arus kas, laporan laba rugi, dan laporan keuangan. Pada aspek produksi, mitra didampingi mengembangkan anggur laut menjadi keripik dan nugget, masing-masing sebanyak 30 bungkus. Produk juga dikembangkan menggunakan kemasan standing pouch dengan identitas merek Anggurih dan tagline “Dari Laut Jadi Gurih”. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan adanya perkembangan kemampuan mitra dalam produksi, pencatatan keuangan, penentuan harga jual, serta persiapan pemasaran. Pada tahap laporan kemajuan, kegiatan masih berada pada fase produksi dan persiapan pemasaran sehingga penjualan dan dampak terhadap omzet belum dapat diukur. Tahap selanjutnya diarahkan pada penguatan kemandirian mitra, peningkatan konsistensi produksi, dan pengembangan pemasaran produk.
