“Kampus Mengajar” aimed to assist the process of teaching and learning at the elementary-junior high school level through technology adaptation, teaching numeracy and literacy, and administrative procedures. The deployment of students during the COVID-19 pandemic, which required learning to be conducted online, will significantly help the school, especially related to technology adaptation. However, this program was less attractive to students and lecturers at the University of Merdeka Malang; this was evident from the relatively small participation of students and lecturers at batch 1. In the initial observation, the “Kampus Mengajar” was less attractive because it did not follow the existing scientific competencies at the University of Merdeka Malang; thus, it was difficult to conduct a credit conversion process. This low participation affects the IKU ranking, where the University of Malang is in cluster 3 with 75.21. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the implementation of the “Kampus Mengajar” as an effort to increase the participation of the University of Merdeka Malang academic community. This research was conducted using an exploratory survey research method. Data were obtained through questionnaires and FGDs. The results showed that the implementation of the Kampus Mengajar at the University of Merdeka Malang had been running through socialization at the central level to the study programs. There was an increase in participation in each batch, both lecturers and students.

Bahasa Inggris di SMP berisi tentang teks singkat tentang deskripsi, naratif, dan prosedural. Idealnya, para siswa diberikan teks bahan ajar yang dekat dengan kehidupan mereka. Kearifan lokal yang ada pada daerah siswa dapat menjadi media belajar yang otentik bagi siswa. Di sisi lain, guru-guru Bahasa Inggris, khususnya pada jenjang SMP di Kabupaten Tanah Laut sebagian besar belum terbiasa mengembangkan bahan ajar yang bermuatan kearifan lokal. Kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini memiliki tujuan agar guru-guru Bahasa Inggris yang ada di Kabupaten Tanah Laut dapat memodifikasi, membuat, dan mengaplikasikan bahan ajar berbasis kearifan lokal daerahnya dalam proses pengajaran dan pembelajaran. Sasaran kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini adalah Guru-guru Bahasa Inggris SMP yang tergabung dalam MGMP Bahasa Inggris se-Kabupaten Tanah Laut yang berjumlah 50 orang.  Metode yang digunakan pada pengabdian masyarakat ini adalah kualitatif. Hasil pelatihan ini berupa bahan ajar yang meliputi teks deskriptif, naratif, dan prosedural berbasis kearifan lokal Kabupaten Tanah Laut. Bahan ajar dibuat oleh para guru MGMP Bahasa Inggris tingkat SMP Kabupaten Tanah laut. Bahan ajar yang dihasilkan oleh para guru adalah berupa 3 tipe teks bacaan yang dipelajari siswa pada level SMP dan sesuai dengan kearifan lokal yang ada di KabupatenTanah Laut. Teks-teks yang dihasilkan diaplikasikan pada proses pengajaran dan pembelajaran di dalam kelas oleh guru-guru Bahasa Inggris di Kabupaten Tanah Laut. Jadi, ketersediaan dan pengaplikasian bahan ajar yang berupa teks-teks bermuatan kearifan lokal yang dibuat oleh para guru memudahkan siswa dalam proses belajar secara otentik dan juga memudahkan siswa dalam menerapkan pengetahuan sesuai dengan keadaan dan lingkungan di Kabupaten Tanah Laut.  English in junior high contains short texts on description, narrative, and procedural. Ideally, students are given the text of teaching materials that are close to their lives. Local wisdom in the student area can be an authentic learning medium for students. On the other hand, English teachers, especially on junior high school level in Tanah Laut Regency, are mostly not accustomed to developing teaching materials related to local wisdom.  This community is aimed to give opportunity to English teachers in Tanah Laut Regency to modify, create, and apply local wisdom teaching materials in the teaching and learning process. 50 English teachers of junior high school are members of English MGMP of junior high school in Tanah Laut Regency.

Problem-based learning connects new problems that exist in daily life. It optimizes the ability to think through the process of group work and experimental activities. The students have difficulties in solving problems. They have little experience and are not highly motivated. It makes them unable to explore what students have. The conventional methods lack of training in critical thinking for students. This causes students to lack confidence to play an active role in the learning process. Based on these problems, the present study therefore developed the Indonesian language learning materials for Grade 7 at the junior high school level using the Problem Based Learning model.
