Abstract

Marching bands as community musical activities have pedagogical potential in the development of soft skills, but studies on this topic are still relatively limited in the context of engineering vocational education. This study aims to understand and identify musical activities in marching band activities as a learning space for soft skills for engineering vocational students at the Politeknik Energi dan Mineral (PEM) Akamigas. The focus of the study is directed at the forms of musical activities that take place in marching bands and their role in facilitating the development of soft skills through collective, structured, and sustainable musical practices. This study uses a qualitative approach with a case study design that has ethnographic tendencies. Data were collected through participatory observation, in-depth interviews with marching band members, coaches, and advisors, as well as document studies. Data analysis was conducted thematically by linking field findings to Robles' soft skills framework and Temmerman's theory of community musical activities. The results of the study indicate that marching band musical activities, such as routine practice, playing instruments, marching, and group coordination, serve as an effective non-formal learning space for developing students' soft skills, including discipline, teamwork, communication, leadership, and responsibility. These findings confirm that community musical activities have pedagogical relevance as a medium for contextual soft skills learning in engineering vocational education.

Abstract

Islamic boarding schools (pesantren) possess strategic potential for advancing the creative economy grounded in cultural and community-based resources, particularly through the batik industry. Pondok Pesantren Al-Mawaddah in Kudus Regency has established a batik business unit since 2018 as part of its pesantren entrepreneur program; however, it has not yet demonstrated optimal competitiveness. This study aims to develop a model for strengthening the pesantren-based creative economy through entrepreneurship training, eco-religious–based santri batik product innovation, and digital branding strategies. This study employs an action research approach encompassing the stages of planning, action, observation, and reflection. Data were collected through participatory observation, interviews, and documentation, and analyzed using descriptive qualitative methods. The findings indicate that (1) pesantren possess strong human resource potential for batik industry development, (2) entrepreneurship training and education enhance the technical and managerial competencies of santri, (3) eco-ethnic and eco-religious–based santri batik product innovation generates a distinctive product identity, (4) santri-preneur competencies improve in the domains of production, entrepreneurship, and digital marketing, and (5) digital branding strategies expand market reach and strengthen the position of santri batik within the creative economy ecosystem. This study affirms the strategic role of pesantren as centers for culturally grounded creative economy development and proposes an integrative model for strengthening santri entrepreneurship through education, training, product innovation, and digital branding.
