Training on the Development of Mindfulness-Based Guidance and Counseling Media to Enhance School Counselors’ Competence in Supporting Student Well-Being
Abstract
This community service program aimed to improve guidance and counseling teachers’ competence in developing mindfulness-based counseling media to support student well-being. The program was conducted on May 12, 2026, at SMA N 1 Rembang in collaboration with the Senior High School/Madrasah Aliyah Guidance and Counseling Teachers’ Association of Rembang Regency, with funding from LPPM Universitas Persatuan Guru Republik Indonesia Semarang. A total of 51 teachers completed the pretest, while 46 completed the posttest. The training included interactive lectures, demonstrations, media design practice, simulations, discussions, and evaluation. Data were analyzed descriptively using means, percentages, categories, and open-response review. The pretest showed that participants’ initial competence was moderate to high, with a mean score of 3.39 or 67.70%. After training, the posttest score increased to 4.34 or 86.89%, categorized as very high. In the 17 comparable items, the score increased from 3.39 to 4.31. The highest improvement was found in confidence and implementation evaluation. This program indicates that practice-based training can strengthen school counselors’ competence in developing mindfulness-based media.
