Corresponding author: Thobias Sarbunan, science1988_06@proton.me

1. Introduction

Reorienting language education initiatives and incorporating these implications for community service can help educators create impartial, inclusive, and transformative learning experiences that empower learners to use language for social change in their communities (Fanny et al., 2022). A thorough curriculum, training initiatives, and experiential learning opportunities prioritising cultural proficiency, social equity, and active involvement in the community are essential for successfully incorporating community service into language education (Sharkey, 2022). Redefining teacher education that recognises and celebrates diversity, eliminates inequity, and promotes inclusive language learning settings is feasible by equipping future educators with the necessary knowledge and abilities. Said (Anggaira, 2023) that learners improve their language and cultural abilities and contribute to the language education community. Engaging in such events makes language acquisition and cultural interchange easier and more fun for others. Digital identities and an inclusive language education community may improve cooperation, professional development, information sharing, teacher empowerment, and community outreach consequences may enhance language instruction for instructors and students (Aydın et al., 2023). The quality of English education programmes may be improved if more English instructors can share their perspectives and ideas via community service (Inés, 2022). Incorporating Information and Communication Technology (ICT) into Continuing Professional Development (CPD) promises to revolutionise language education and community service by identifying and resolving systemic gaps and skill deficiencies. Using technological tools and resources, language educators can augment their instructional methodologies, facilitate individualised learning experiences, and cultivate a sense of collaboration within the educational community; endeavours ultimately yield advantages for educators and language learners (Lo & To, 2023).

The key themes discussed in the context of second language acquisition and volunteerism may be supported by a wide range of related theoretical frameworks. Some applicable theories that may be used to inform and guide the creation of educational resources are as follows:

• This paradigm, social constructivism, stresses the importance of group effort and communication in learning. It argues that social and community involvement enhances learning for pupils. Social constructivism is consistent with developing a curriculum that emphasises student participation and interaction (Lähdesmäki et al., 2023; Carmen et al., 2023; Cooper, 2023; Hameed, 2023; Kidron & Kali, 2023; Gruber et al., 2023; Hill et al., 2023).
• To combat societal disparities and injustices, critical pedagogy advocates for a radical shift in how we educate students. Students are prompted to examine and challenge the status quo. The concepts of critical pedagogy may be used in the classroom by using resources that help students develop their necessary thinking skills, promote open dialogue about social concerns, and give them agency in their use of language to effect positive change in the world (BENDRAOU & SAKALE, 2023; Lee & Johnstone, 2023; Lozada & Figueroa, 2023; Daus-Magbual et al., 2023; Mehan, 2023; Kasumagić-Kafedžić, 2023; Satienchayakorn & Grant, 2023; Weston & Coutts, 2023; Yacob Abraham, 2023).
• Culturally relevant pedagogy is a method of teaching that places a premium on using students' unique cultural perspectives and experiences in the classroom. It values students' unique cultural backgrounds and seeks to create classrooms where everyone feels welcome. The ideas of culturally relevant pedagogy are consistent with the design of instructional resources that foster cultural fluency, provide many points of view, and place weight on students' cultural identities (Kurian, 2023; Nguyen & Huynh, 2023; Hart & Aydınlı, 2023; AkinSabuncu et al., 2023; Koubek & Wasta, 2023; Kim, 2023; Anlimachie et al., 2023).
• Community-based learning is a method that links formal education with extracurricular activities and volunteer work in the local community. It acknowledges the importance of learning from one's own experiences and encourages pupils to do so to solve real-world problems. By the tenets of community-based education, it is important to design curricula that include community service initiatives, service-learning opportunities, and partnerships with local groups (Wali et al., 2023; Wallen, 2023; Zavialova, 2023; Taoube et al., 2023; Bailey et al., 2023; Suh et al., 2023; HaboushDeloye et al., 2023; Shrivastava et al., 2023; Giebel et al., 2023; Richards et al., 2023).
• According to the transformative learning theory, learning is a process of critical introspection and developing new ways of thinking, feeling, and behaving. It stresses the significance of exposing students to activities that make them question their beliefs and motivate them to effect positive change in their communities. The ideas of transformational learning are consistent with creating instructional resources that inspire students to think critically, allow them to analyse their prejudices, and motivate them to take action toward positive social change (Bond et al., 2023; Maharani & Fithriani, 2023; Muzyk et al., 2023; Maijala, 2023; Pang et al., 2023; Webb et al., 2023).

Research Question: How can community service be reoriented in language education to produce unbiased, inclusive, and transformational learning experiences that enable learners to use language for social change in their communities?

This desktop study examines literature, resources, and theoretical frameworks on community service in language teaching. The initiative seeks effective methods, tactics, and practices to build instructional materials and activities that promote social change, cultural competency, and inclusive language learning settings. The findings will help educators and policymakers integrate community service into language education programs to enable students to use language for social change.

2. Method

This paper used secondary research methodology and desktop research-method used to examine the logic of the research.

3. Result and Discussion

Designing community service teaching resources to promote the core themes in language education and community service involves considerable thought and attention. Following are some suggestions:

According to the literature (Ren & Varma, 2023; Wulantari et al., 2023; Karahasanovi-Avdibegovi, 2023; Hodson et al., 2023; Bosio, 2023; Rahmawati et al., 2023; Annisa Rahmadani, 2023; Phung et al., 2023; Randall, 2023), students may be encouraged to use language as a weapon for social change in the following ways:

• Include real-life examples and case studies demonstrating how language has been used for social change in various contexts.
• Incorporate activities that encourage students to discuss and analyse social issues and injustices using language skills.
• Assign projects or tasks requiring students to create persuasive arguments, speeches, or written pieces advocating social change.

The authors Pradhananga and ElZomor (2023), Kushnier et al. (2023), Chau et al. (2023), YoonRamirez (2023), and McCradden et al. (2023) have emphasised the importance of emphasising cultural fluency, social equity, and active community participation.

• Integrate materials that promote cultural awareness and understanding, highlighting diverse perspectives and experiences.
• Include readings, videos, or interviews with individuals from marginalised communities to provide a platform for their voices to be heard.
• Encourage students to actively engage with local communities through service-learning projects that address community needs.

Redefining teacher education to promote diversity, equity, and inclusivity (Küçükakın, Pınar Mercan & Gökmenoğlu, 2023; Nur Ain Nadir et al., 2023; Snow et al., 2023; Stephen et al., 2023; Firestone et al., 2023; Tai et al., 2023).

• Provide resources and training materials for teachers to develop their understanding of diversity, equity, and inclusion.
• Include examples of inclusive teaching practices and strategies for creating an inclusive learning environment.
• Incorporate reflective activities that encourage teachers to examine their biases and assumptions critically.

Leveraging digital identity and inclusive language education communities (Durham et al., 2023; Lytra, 2023; Jensen et al., 2023; Partha et al., 2023; Weisberg & Dawson, 2023; Boda, 2023; Chung et al., 2023; Emmanuelle et al. et al., 2023; Duignan et al., 2023; Ferrara et al., 2023):

• Explore online platforms or forums where students can connect with language learners from different backgrounds and cultures.
• Integrate multimedia resources, such as videos or podcasts, that showcase diverse voices and experiences.
• Encourage students to create digital projects that raise awareness of social issues and promote inclusivity.

Investigating specific methodologies and assessing their impact (Derakhshan et al., 2023; Byams et al., 2023; Alegría et al., 2023; Chan et al., 2023; Cheng et al., 2023; Baldwin et al., 2023; Cooper et al., 2023; Amir et al. et al., 2023; Anh et al. et al., 2023; Paul et al., 2023):

• Include research articles, case studies, or reports that examine the effectiveness of different teaching methodologies in promoting social change.
• Design activities that require students to critically evaluate the impact of specific methodologies on their language learning and social awareness.
• Encourage students to reflect on their learning experiences and share insights with their peers.

Enabling learners to contribute to social change through language teaching and community service (Porto, 2023; Wu et al., 2023; Henning et al., 2023; Ruiz-Montero et al., 2023; Al-Zoubi et al., 2023; Woodring & Feeney, 2023; Porto et al., 2023).

• Assign tasks that require students to plan and execute language-focused community service projects.
• Provide opportunities for students to collaborate with local organisations or community members to address language-related challenges.
• Encourage students to reflect on the impact of their contributions and consider ways to sustain their efforts beyond the classroom.

Language teaching and community service activities may greatly benefit from adopting the proposed ways for integrating central topics. By incorporating concrete illustrations, empirical investigations, and interactive exercises that scrutinise societal phenomena, students can comprehend the potency of language as a catalyst for transformative social processes. Integrating educational materials that facilitate cultural fluency and social equity and promote active community engagement cultivates empathy, comprehension, and a heightened awareness of social obligations among students. The redefinition of teacher education to emphasise diversity, equity, and inclusivity provides educators with the essential tools and approaches to establish inclusive learning environments. Digital identity and inclusive language education communities enable students to actively participate in various viewpoints and generate digital projects that foster inclusivity and enhance societal consciousness. Examining methodologies and evaluating their effects promote the development of critical thinking and introspection, enriching students' language acquisition and fostering their social consciousness. By incorporating language teaching and community service, educators can empower learners to actively participate in addressing language-related challenges and sustaining their efforts in promoting social change. These implications foster the development of actively involved and socially aware individuals, enabling them to utilise language to effect constructive transformation within their respective communities.

4. Conclusion

Integrating key topics in language instruction with community service may enable students to become engaged community members and create social change. Students may learn how language can be used for social change using real-life examples, case studies, and critical thinking exercises. Educational materials may teach empathy, understanding, and social responsibility by emphasising cultural fluency, social equality, and active community engagement.

Diverse, equitable, and inclusive teacher education gives educators the tools to build inclusive learning environments. Training tools, inclusive teaching practices, and reflective exercises help instructors critically analyse their prejudices and preconceptions, creating a more inclusive classroom.

Leveraging digital identity and inclusive language education communities allows students to connect with individuals from diverse backgrounds, fostering a sense of inclusivity and promoting cultural understanding. Integrating multimedia resources and encouraging students to create digital projects further amplify diverse voices and raise awareness of social issues.

Investigating specific methodologies and assessing their impact enables students to critically evaluate different teaching approaches and their role in promoting social change. Students can better understand the relationship between language learning and social awareness by incorporating research articles, case studies, and reflective activities.

Finally, enabling learners to contribute to social change through language teaching and community service encourages students to engage with their communities actively. Assigning tasks that involve planning and executing language-focused community service projects and collaborating with local organisations or community members empowers students to address language-related challenges and make a positive impact.

Integrating these strategies and approaches in language education and community service can cultivate actively involved and socially aware individuals equipped to utilise language as a catalyst for constructive transformation within their communities. By incorporating concrete illustrations, empirical investigations, and interactive exercises, educators can foster students' comprehension of the power of language in driving social change and nurturing their sense of social responsibility.

This manuscript's thorough examination and integration of community service into language instruction to promote social change via inclusive and transformational learning experiences is cutting-edge. This text integrates community involvement with language teaching, a novel technique.

The paper examines relevant literature, theoretical frameworks, and research findings to substantiate its claims. Social constructivism, critical pedagogy, culturally relevant pedagogy, community-based learning, and transformational learning theory inspire its instructional resource creation.

Community service may empower students to utilise language for social change. The text suggests using real-life examples, case studies, and critical thinking and social change activities for educators. Cultural fluency, social equality, and community engagement in language learning are stressed. The text emphasises reinventing teacher education to foster diversity, equality, and inclusiveness. It advises giving instructors tools and training, promoting inclusive teaching, and fostering self-reflection to confront prejudices and preconceptions. Digital identity and inclusive language education groups are also new. According to the book, online platforms, multimedia tools, and digital initiatives link different pupils, enhance social awareness, and promote inclusion. The text also stresses the need to study certain methods and their influence on social transformation. Research papers, case studies, and reflective exercises let students critically examine instructional methods and their effects on language acquisition and social awareness.
