Abstract

This community service project focuses on the integration of educational technology in early childhood education, particularly at Pre-School Little Bear Indonesia, to enhance children's basic skills. The primary issue addressed is the readiness of educators in utilizing technology, along with the challenges in providing digital-based learning resources and strategies. The goal of this service project is to build teachers' capacity in using technology effectively, develop a technology-based curriculum, and evaluate the impact of technology on children's critical thinking, creativity, and social interaction skills. The approach used is Service Learning (SL), which involves teacher training, classroom observations, interviews with parents, and evaluative surveys on the use of digital media. The results show that educational technology can increase children's engagement in learning, but it requires infrastructure support and continuous teacher training to ensure its optimal and sustainable implementation.

Abstract

This article discusses a community service program focused on enhancing the skills and self-confidence of children at Quranic Education Institutions (TPQ/Madin) in Senggowar Village. The initiative employed the Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD) approach, which leverages existing community assets as the primary foundation for development. The key assets identified were the TPQ/Madin institutions themselves and the latent potential of the students. The program involved structured mentoring and training in public speaking, integrated with Qur'anic values. Activities included teaching assistance, speech and poetry training, and inter-TPQ competitions. The results indicated a significant increase in the students' confidence, communication abilities, and willingness to express themselves in public. The program successfully demonstrated that by focusing on and developing internal assets, it is possible to foster a generation of Qur'anic youth who are not only religiously knowledgeable but also confident and articulate, thereby contributing to positive social change within the community.
