PEMBERDAYAAN MUTU PENDIDIKAN MELALUI BIMBINGAN BELAJAR UNTUK MENINGKATKAN LITERASI DAN NUMERASI DI DESA KLURAHAN

Abstract

The literacy and numeracy skills of elementary school children in Klurahan Village are still relatively low, due to low motivation to learn, lack of variety in teaching methods, and limited involvement of parents and supporting facilities. To address these issues, students from the Ngawi Islamic Institute conducted a tutoring program through a Community Empowerment Practicum (PPM) in July 2025. This study employed a descriptive qualitative approach with 30 students from grades I–VI at Klurahan Elementary School and Nurul Islam Klurahan Islamic School as subjects, who participated in 13 sessions. The program was implemented through the stages of problem identification, planning, implementation, and evaluation, using a contextual, participatory, and enjoyable learning approach. The results showed an improvement in students' basic skills in reading, writing, and arithmetic, as well as a higher enthusiasm for learning. The results indicated an improvement in children's basic skills in reading, writing, and arithmetic, as well as the development of a learning spirit. The evaluation also noted positive changes in learning habits, although these were not yet uniform. Challenges faced include irregular attendance and limited parental involvement. This program makes a tangible contribution to improving the quality of basic education in rural areas and is relevant for sustainable development through cross-sectoral collaboration.
