Implementation of the PLP Program in Supporting the Improvement of Learning Quality at SMAN 1 Tanggetada

Abstract

The School Field Introduction Program (Pengenalan Lapangan Persekolahan/PLP) serves as a platform for university students to apply their teaching competencies directly in school settings. This community service activity aimed to describe the implementation of the PLP program in supporting learning quality at SMAN 1 Tanggetada. The partner school's main challenges included the heavy teaching workload of mentor teachers and limitations in educational infrastructure, particularly internet access and electricity supply, which constrained the implementation of technology-based learning. The program was conducted through a participatory approach and direct mentoring over a period of 36 days, involving seven students from Universitas Sembilanbelas November Kolaka representing various teacher education programs. Data were collected through participatory observation, field documentation, and interviews with the school principal and mentor teachers. The findings indicate that the presence of PLP students contributed to the learning process through the implementation of active learning strategies, academic assistance, and support for instructional administration. Based on observations and interview results, students demonstrated improved engagement and participation during classroom activities, while teachers and school administrators perceived benefits in managing learning activities. Limited internet access was addressed through the optimization of face-to-face interactive learning methods. Overall, the program contributed positively to the school's learning ecosystem and supported the achievement of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in the field of education.
