Abstract

The rapid development of digital technology around the world has significantly transformed education, influencing how knowledge is produced, disseminated, and consumed globally. This paper explores the application of Cultural-Historical Activity Theory (CHAT) within education, emphasizing its potential to navigate the complexities and opportunities presented by the digital era. CHAT, grounded in the works of Vygotsky and expanded by Engeström, provides a comprehensive framework for understanding the interplay between cultural artifacts, tools, and social interactions in educational settings. This theoretical approach is particularly relevant in analyzing how digital tools mediate learning processes, reshaping pedagogical practices and learning outcomes. Through a thorough review of existing literature and case studies, this paper highlights CHAT's role in fostering adaptive, culturally responsive, and technologically integrated educational environments worldwide. Furthermore, it identifies gaps in current research, particularly concerning the systematic study of digital technology's impact on educational activity systems and the effectiveness of CHAT-based interventions. By integrating key concepts of CHAT with contemporary digital tools, this paper contributes to the discourse on educational innovation, offering insights into the dynamic relationship between technology, pedagogy, and student engagement in education.

Abstract

The development and dissemination of effective publicity materials are essential for professional communicators in public relations, communication, and marketing in this digital and globalized world. These materials, encompassing various media formats, play a crucial role in conveying messages, shaping public perceptions, and engaging target audiences. With the rapid development of digital technology and the need for integrated communication strategies, creating persuasive, ethical, and transparent materials has become increasingly important. This study aims to identify and synthesize common procedures for the development of publicity materials through a systematic literature review (SLR) of 77 highly cited international references in public relations, marketing, communication, and media. Key stages of the methodology include defining research questions, identifying and selecting relevant literature, extracting and analysing data, and summarizing common procedures. The findings reveal essential elements such as audience analysis, objectives-setting, message development, communication channel selection, and effectiveness appraisal. This study also highlights the importance of cultural sensitivity, two-way communication, and the integration of technology in developing effective publicity materials. The study concludes with recommendations for future research, including the development of comprehensive models or frameworks that can further enhance the creation of impactful publicity materials in diverse contexts.

Abstract

Carnaval, a global festival with deep historical and cultural roots, has evolved from ancient pagan rituals into a vibrant expression of community identity, creativity, and joy. This paper analyzes the global trends in Carnaval celebrations and their evolving meanings in the digital age, with a focus on balancing tradition, inclusivity, and sustainability. By examining how digital technologies reshape the experience and dissemination of Carnaval, this study highlights the interplay between globalization, cultural continuity, and change. Case studies from Brazil, Trinidad and Tobago, Venice, New Orleans, and Indonesia illustrate the integration of digital tools in promoting and preserving Carnaval traditions. The findings reveal that while digital platforms enhance accessibility and inclusivity, they also pose challenges in maintaining cultural authenticity. By leveraging augmented reality, virtual reality, live streaming, and social media, Carnaval events can reach a global audience, fostering cultural exchange and appreciation. However, it is crucial to balance these innovations with the preservation of traditional elements to ensure the essence and historical significance of Carnaval are maintained. This paper concludes with recommendations for stakeholders to integrate digital technology responsibly, promoting sustainable practices and inclusive participation while preserving the rich cultural heritage of Carnaval.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the narratives of Kampung Warna-warni Jodipan, Kampung Budaya Polowijen, and Kampoeng Heritage Kajoetangan, three Malang City themed villages that have developed into popular tourist destinations. Social media, especially platforms like Instagram, has become a powerful tool in promoting tourism by enabling destinations to reach global audiences, foster community engagement, and create visually driven narratives that attract visitors. This approach aligns with the Sustainable Developments Goals (SDGs) 11, a globally recognized framework that emphasizes creating inclusive, safe, resilient, and sustainable cities and human settlements worldwide. By promoting these villages through effective Instagram storytelling, tourism managers can support SDG 11’s objectives by highlighting unique cultural heritage while also contributing to local economic and social sustainability. This study used a quantitative descriptive content analysis method. The results revealed that the three thematic villages have not yet fully used storytelling techniques in the content created and posted on Instagram, and have not optimally used tourism components, such as attractions, amenities, and accessibility. These findings suggest that the managers of the Kampung Warna-warni Jodipan, Kampung Budaya Polowijen, and Kampoeng Heritage Kajoetangan should consider incorporating storytelling elements and tourism components in creating content to effectively target audiences and highlight the unique qualities of each village.

Abstract

Information regarding marketing distribution data plays a crucial role for business actors in formulating their future business strategies. Marketing distribution data enables companies to perform market segmentation more accurately. By understanding the characteristics and preferences of consumers in each segment, companies can tailor their products and marketing messages to meet specific consumer needs. MetaPolije serves as an alternative solution for mapping marketing distribution data. MetaPolije is a web-based platform designed to facilitate user access. It was developed using the Scrum software development method, which consists of four main phases: planning, sprint, sprint review, and sprint retrospective. MetaPolije provides information about the profiles of objects in a given area, along with comprehensive demographic data for that area. The data visualization displays maps down to the sub-district level, which is customized according to partner requests. Similarly, the various categories of objects shown can be adjusted based on user partner requirements. The demographic data displayed comes from the Sidoarjo Regency Statistics Agency (BPS). Therefore, whenever the Sidoarjo Regency BPS releases the latest population data, the MetaPolije platform updated also. The information presented on the MetaPolije platform can be utilized by policymakers to better understand consumers and for crafting marketing strategies that are more suitable and relevant based on existing data. By utilizing MetaPolije, businesspeople gained better data visualization regarding the types of businesses currently present in a particular area. With the support of available demographic data, it can assist in making subsequent decisions related to appropriate business development policies moving forward.

Abstract

As a vocational college, Politeknik Negeri Jember (Polije) has developed teaching factories, or TeFa, as one manifestation of ‘learning by doing’ to provide skilled graduates for the industrial world. TeFa Integrated Hotel, one of 29 Teaching Factories established by Polije, is gearing up to give the students a small-size hospitality industry simulation. Thus, it intends to improve services by one of which is initiating a hotel laundry business. This research aims to analyse the equipment needed to initiate a laundry business at the TeFa Integrated Hotel. This laundry business is essential for the TeFa to fulfil the needs of customers and its housekeeping section to suppress the operational costs. This research applied a descriptive-qualitative method by collecting data through in-depth interviews and Focus Group Discussions (FDG). The results showed that to start a laundry business, some equipment must be available, including work equipment such as washing machines, dryers, irons, and ironing boards, as well as consumable equipment such as detergent, softener, bleach, acids, and alkalis. For a small-sized hotel laundry, the work equipment standard that must be met includes the size of the washing machine, which is usually equipped with a drying machine between 8-20 Kg adjusted to the room quota and variety of customers. As equipment is the main supporter in running a business, this research can be impactful in determining the business's success in the future. Additionally, any service improvements made by TeFa Integrated Hotel will further support Polije in providing the best graduates to the industry.
