Abstract

Generation Z students in junior high school face challenges in developing future plans. A preliminary study at SMP Negeri 2 Banjarmasin showed that many students lack a clear picture of their life goals and concrete steps to achieve them. The community service implementation method uses a participatory and experiential learning approach to increase students' awareness and skills in setting life goals based on SMART goals (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-bound). The implementation method is carried out through a goal-setting camp with the following stages: socialization, registration, pretest, reflective session, introduction to SMART goals, future visualization, preparation of a concrete action plan, evaluation, posttest, and follow-up. The results of the activity showed an increase in students' understanding of the importance of systematic future planning. Evaluation through a pretest-posttest showed a significant difference in students' understanding, accompanied by increased learning motivation and self-awareness. This program has implications for strengthening guidance and counseling services in schools, as well as sustainability through a goal-setting camp pocketbook that can be integrated into BK services.
