This paper examines the problem of low editing skills, especially among students of Creative Media State Polytechnic Publishing. This study also departs from the problem of untested editing skills. Therefore, this article aims to 1) map the level of testing of the editing skills of the Creative Media State Polytechnic Publishing Study Program Students with a specialization in editing; 2) mapping the level of editing skill testing of the State Polytechnic Creative Media Publishing Study Program Students with a specialization in writing; 3) produce a comparison map of the testing skills of the State Polytechnic Creative Media Publishing Study Program between those who are interested in editing with those who are interested in writing. The study with the grand qualitative method used a script editing design. The data processing methods are descriptive and comparative. The data collection techniques applied were interviews and questionnaires. The activity plan showing the procedure for this study is as follows. Publishing student data collection who will be the study sample. Conducting interviews to get initial data. Testing the editing competence of Publishing students. Processing test data. Formulating policies, models, and conclusions. This study has resulted in the editing competency level of the Creative Media State Polytechnic Publishing students. The level of competence does not represent a qualified ability. The basic editing skills of the tested students showed a very good level as evidenced by their generally very good grades. Spelling and grammar skills are quite good. However, the syntactic capabilities still need to be improved. Therefore, the improvement of editing competency still needs to be improved, especially with regard to applied editing. According to the level achievement of the editing competency level of the Creative Media State can be generated.

Conclusion

The test conducted shows that the level of editing skill testing of Creative Media State Polytechnic Publishing students did not demonstrate a high level of proficiency.Publishing students still need to refine their practical editing skills, particularly in the area of basic sentence structure.However, their foundational knowledge is already quite strong.Based on the results, it is recommended that editing instruction prioritize practical application over theoretical aspects, and that efforts be made to strengthen the technical language skills of Creative Media State Polytechnic Publishing students, specifically focusing on spelling, word choice, and sentence construction.Further research should focus on providing more intensive assistance to strengthen the editing skills of students.

Future Research

Based on the limitations of this study and the existing literature, several avenues for future research emerge. First, a more comprehensive curriculum development is needed to ensure the readiness of Creative Media State Polytechnic Publishing students, focusing on practical application and real-world editing scenarios. Second, further investigation into the specific challenges students face with syntactic capabilities is warranted, potentially through targeted workshops or individualized tutoring. Finally, exploring the effectiveness of different pedagogical approaches to teaching editing, such as peer review or simulated professional editing projects, could provide valuable insights for improving student outcomes. These research directions build upon the current studys findings and aim to address the identified gaps in editing skill development, ultimately contributing to a more skilled and competitive publishing workforce.
