Abstract

This research focuses on the survival strategies applied by traders in Pasar Ikan Lama, Medan, who have been operating traditionally for at least five years. Pasar Ikan Lama is a well-known textile market in Medan City, which attracts not only local people but also visitors from other regions such as Aceh, Padang, and Riau. In the face of challenges from the proliferation of online shopping, traders in the Pasar Ikan Lama must adapt to the rapid changes in information and communication technology. This study identifies various strategies used by traders to attract buyers, such as providing discounts and utilizing online sales. Data analysis was conducted through interviews and note collection to understand more about the strategies implemented by merchants. The research also highlights the importance of understanding existing digital tools, where digital optimization can provide a more personalized experience for customers. However, the challenge faced is the need to learn and invest in new technologies. Overall, this research provides insights into how traditional market traders can remain relevant and competitive in the digital age, as well as the importance of integrating digital strategies in their businesses to achieve long-term success.

Abstract

Tanjung Ibus Village, which is located in Secanggang District, Langkat Regency, is an area with a strong religious life. However, the challenges in spreading religious education in rural areas such as Tanjung Ibus cannot be ignored. Limited access to educational resources, a lack of competent teaching staff, and a lack of facilities and infrastructure for religious education are obstacles that are often faced. The North Sumatra State Islamic University (UIN-SU) Real Work Lecture Program (KKN) with group code 124 took the initiative to make a real contribution through teaching and learning activities in Tanjung Ibus Village. This program not only aims to improve children's academic abilities, but also to strengthen their understanding of the teachings of their religion. There are several programs offered by KKN 124 Uinsu, namely, Teaching at MDA and teaching the Qur’an. The KKN student teaching program helps increase children's Islamic religious knowledge in Tanjung Ibus Village. Through interactive and fun learning methods, children can more easily understand basic religious concepts such as monotheism, fiqh, morals and Islamic history.

Abstract

In today's digital age, the traditional market sector is facing significant challenges due to the rapid growth of e-commerce. This study aims to compare the sales strategies of traditional market traders, specifically at the Old Fish Market, with those of e-commerce players. By examining the strengths, weaknesses, and challenges of both models, this research seeks to understand how these two approaches can complement each other in the face of increasing market competition. The research employed a qualitative approach, involving interviews with traders, observations, and a review of relevant literature. The findings revealed that while traditional markets offer unique advantages such as personal relationships and product freshness, e-commerce provides wider reach and convenience. To remain competitive, traditional market traders need to adopt a hybrid approach, combining the best of both worlds. This study contributes to the literature on the digital transformation of traditional markets and provides practical insights for policymakers and market stakeholders.

Abstract

Reading is a fundamental pillar in the development of a highly skilled human resource base. However, reading interest in Indonesia remains low, particularly in remote areas that face several challenges, such as limited access to reading materials, insufficient library facilities, and a lack of effective literacy programs. This study examines the strategic role of library outreach programs in addressing these challenges. These programs encompass mobile libraries, literacy training, and the use of digital technologies to reach communities that have previously struggled to access library services. Using a qualitative descriptive approach based on a literature review, the study demonstrates that outreach programs can broaden access to information, foster early literacy development in children, and enhance community engagement. In this way, libraries evolve from mere book repositories into catalysts for social change, contributing to the creation of an educated, information-literate, and empowered society, particularly in remote regions.

Abstract

The journalism profession in Indonesia is still dominated by men, both in terms of editorial leadership and division of labor in the field. This article discusses how female journalists construct their roles and face obstacles in the news production space, as well as how gender representation is reflected in everyday journalistic practices. Using a sociological approach and gender perspective, this article attempts to uncover the power relations, stereotypes, and negotiation strategies experienced by female journalists in navigating a masculine work environment. This study uses a qualitative method with in-depth interview techniques with female journalists from various mass media. The findings show that although women experience marginalization in editorial decision-making and field assignments, they still play an important role in encouraging a more inclusive perspective in the news. This study emphasizes the importance of structural awareness of gender equality in the media industry and the need for a more equitable transformation of journalistic work culture.
