Sosialisasi Cara Kerja dan Fungsi Komputer di SMA Padmajaya

Abstract

The rapid development of information technology requires the strengthening of digital literacy starting from basic and secondary education levels. This community service activity aims to conduct socialization of students from the Computer Engineering Department of Politeknik Negeri Sriwijaya to SMP Padmajaya Palembang by introducing computer technology, vocational education, and career prospects in the field of information technology. The methods used include material presentation, interactive discussions, and simple demonstrations of computer technology utilization. The results indicate an improvement in students' understanding of the role of computer technology in daily life, awareness of vocational education pathways, and increased interest in information technology fields. This activity is expected to contribute positively to helping junior high school students plan their future education and careers.
