However, many parents still interpret school readiness narrowly, focusing mainly on early academic skills. This community service program aimed to enhance parents’ and teachers’ understanding of children’s readiness to enter elementary school from a holistic perspective, including physical, cognitive, language, social-emotional, and independence aspects. The activity was conducted through an offline educational and participatory approach involving lectures and interactive discussions with parents and early childhood teachers in the IGTK of Sangir Balai Janggo District, Solok Selatan Regency. The results indicated an increased awareness among participants regarding comprehensive school readiness indicators and the strategic role of parents in supporting children during the educational transition period. This program contributes to strengthening family involvement as the primary environment in fostering children’s optimal school readiness.</em></p> Leni Murni Hayati, Esa Yulimarta, Peki Fitra Sandi, Sri Yanti Copyright (c) 2026 RANGGUK: Jurnal Pengabdian Kepada Masyarakat https://ejournal.iainkerinci.ac.id/index.php/RGK/article/view/6676 Thu, 15 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0700 https://ejournal.iainkerinci.ac.id/index.php/RGK/article/view/6678 <p>Participation in higher education in Indonesia remains a strategic issue, particularly among vocational high school graduates. This phenomenon is influenced by negative perceptions of bachelor's degree graduates, a strong work and migration orientation, and weak motivation to pursue knowledge. This activity aims to increase student motivation and awareness in continuing their education to higher education through Islamic values-based motivational training at SMKN 2 Pariaman City. The approach used was participatory and educational, using training methods, reflective discussions, higher education counseling, and internalization of Islamic values ​​regarding the importance of seeking knowledge. Data were collected through post-activity observations and participant reflections, then analyzed descriptively and qualitatively. The results showed an increase in student understanding of the urgency of higher education, a change in perceptions of the academic world, and increased motivation and interest in continuing their studies to higher education. Islamic values-based mentoring has proven effective in building academic awareness and future orientation in students, thus contributing positively to efforts to increase participation in higher education.</p> <p>Keywords: Motivation Training, Islamic Values, Higher Education</p> Hamzah Irfanda Hamzah Irfanda, Syifa Ulinnas Copyright (c) 2026 RANGGUK: Jurnal Pengabdian Kepada Masyarakat https://ejournal.iainkerinci.ac.id/index.php/RGK/article/view/6678 Thu, 15 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0700
