Abstract

This article aims to examine the importance of school administration through the role of administrative staff (Tata Usaha) in elementary schools, using a qualitative approach based on a literature review of academic studies, scientific books, and the latest educational policies. The findings indicate that administrative staff play a crucial role in ensuring the smooth operation of educational management processes, from student data management, financial documentation, and academic archiving to internal coordination. Despite its strategic function, this role is often overlooked, especially in many public elementary schools in Indonesia that do not yet have official administrative staff positions. The absence of this role has led to the administrative burden being shifted to teachers and principals, thereby diverting their focus from core instructional duties. A well-functioning school administration enhances institutional efficiency, supports data-driven decision-making, and strengthens public accountability in education funding. However, challenges such as the lack of structural recognition for the administrative role at the elementary level, minimal professional training, and inadequate regulatory frameworks remain major obstacles. Therefore, the institutionalization of administrative staff in elementary schools must be promptly realized through affirmative policies, continuous competency development, and a paradigm shift towards a more professional school management system. This study concludes that administrative staff are not merely technical support personnel but strategic actors in building an accountable, orderly, and sustainable basic education system. The presence of administrative staff in elementary schools is not an option but a necessity for the delivery of quality basic education services.

Abstract

Abstrak. Kesenjangan akses teknologi di wilayah pedalaman seringkali menghambat pengembangan kreativitas siswa dalam bidang desain grafis, sebagaimana yang terjadi di SMPN 3 Satap Tombolopao, Kabupaten Gowa. Lokasi geografis di dataran tinggi mengakibatkan keterbatasan fasilitas laboratorium komputer dan rendahnya literasi visual siswa.Kegiatan Pengabdian kepada Masyarakat (PKM) ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan kompetensi desain grafis siswa dengan memanfaatkan platform cloud Canva dan optimalisasi Smart TV sebagai media instruksional kolaboratif. Metode yang digunakan adalah Participatory Action Learning System (PALS) yang melibatkan 13 siswa melalui tahapan sosialisasi, pelatihan intensif (demonstrasi dan praktik), serta evaluasi. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan peningkatan signifikan pada seluruh indikator kompetensi: pemahaman prinsip desain meningkat dari 25% menjadi 85%, dan keterampilan operasional Canva melonjak dari 5% menjadi 90%. Penggunaan Smart TV terbukti efektif memberikan ketajaman visual yang mendukung ketelitian desain dibandingkan proyektor konvensional. Kendala stabilitas internet di lokasi disiasati melalui fitur offline editing. Kesimpulannya, integrasi teknologi tepat guna berbasis aset sekolah mampu meningkatkan digital self-efficacy siswa di sekolah satu atap, sekaligus menjadi solusi praktis dalam menjembatani digital divide di wilayah rural.Kata Kunci: Desain Grafis, Canva, Smart TV, Literasi Digital, Tombolopao

Abstract

The use of digital media by young children without parental supervision has been widely examined through quantitative approaches. However, qualitative research exploring how family digital parenting practices and teachers' roles jointly shape young children's social-emotional character within a small-scale early childhood education setting remains limited, particularly in the Indonesian context. This study addresses this gap by examining how parental digital parenting practices and teachers' roles collaboratively contribute to the development of children's social-emotional character at Wahyu Kindergarten. A qualitative case study design was employed, involving twelve purposively selected participants comprising one principal, three teachers, and eight parents. Data were collected through participant observation, semi-structured interviews, and document analysis, and were analyzed using data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The trustworthiness of the findings was ensured through source and methodological triangulation. The findings indicate that unsupervised digital device use is associated with reduced face-to-face social interaction, weakened self-discipline, and increased individualistic tendencies among young children. In contrast, communicative digital parenting accompanied by active parental guidance supports the development of responsibility, politeness, and social skills. These positive outcomes are further reinforced by teachers through behavioral modeling and the facilitation of positive peer interactions within the school environment. Theoretically, this study contributes a collaborative framework for parents and teachers to promote balanced digital parenting practices that support the development of young children's social-emotional character in early childhood education settings.
