Implementation of Multiculturalism Values in the Campus Environment
Anggi Dwi Lestari Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri Indonesia , Anisa Wika Ramadhani Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri Indonesia , Muhammad Nur Khalifah Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri Indonesia , Alfarizhi Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri Indonesia , A. Dzulfikar Ramadhani Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri IndonesiaThis study examines the implementation of multicultural values in the campus environment through a critical analysis of tolerance, inclusivity, and social integration among students. Using a descriptive qualitative approach based on observation and interviews, the study explores how students interact within a culturally diverse academic setting. The findings reveal that students generally demonstrate positive attitudes toward diversity through mutual respect, cooperation, and openness. However, challenges such as stereotypes, symbolic discrimination, cultural barriers, and unequal participation remain evident. By comparing the findings with previous studies, this article argues that multiculturalism in higher education should move beyond symbolic acceptance toward transformative inclusivity. Universities must strengthen multicultural education, intercultural dialogue, and institutional policies that promote equality and social justice.

Muhamadul Bakir Yaakub Universiti Islam Sultan Sharif Ali (UNISSA) Brunei Darussalam , Khatijah Othman Universiti Islam Sultan Sharif Ali (UNISSA) Brunei DarussalamThis study examines dakwah as a professional career, the organized sequence of roles, tasks, and specialized training involved in Islamic propagation that focusing on its practice in conveying Islamic knowledge to new converts (muallaf). Dakwah is treated as both an art and a vocation that shapes the identity and effectiveness of propagators; its success depends on communicative skill, pedagogical competence, and the ability to translate knowledge into practice. In certain cases, contemporary dakwah practitioners face sociocultural challenges that hinder career development and the effectiveness of propagation. These challenges include social barriers, biases, discrimination, weak social integration, limited mentorship, and constrained professional mobility within and between Muslim and non‑Muslim communities. This study raised the issue to what extent should socio‑cultural factors be integrated into the planning and implementation of dakwah activities to strengthen practice and outcomes for muallaf? This research adopts a conceptual framework complemented by fieldwork observation. Primary data were collected through direct interviews with propagators and muallaf, and secondary data were gathered via document analysis of relevant literature and organizational records. Data were analyzed thematically to identify recurring sociocultural barriers and practical strategies used by practitioners. The study finds that muallaf receive and apply Islamic knowledge more readily when sociocultural burdens are minimized. Key barriers identified are insufficient social integration, lack of structured mentorship, and low levels of professionalization among propagators. These factors reduce trust, impede learning, and limit the long‑term retention and practice of religious teachings. Conversely, interventions that address cultural sensitivity, community inclusion, and mentorship significantly improve learning outcomes and the propagator’s professional success. Addressing sociocultural aspects is essential for strengthening dakwah as a professional career and for improving outcomes among new converts. The study recommends that dakwah programs incorporate cultural competence training, formal mentorship schemes, and measures to enhance professional mobility and accountability. Doing so will increase the effectiveness of propagation, support propagators’ career development, and foster more inclusive community engagement.

Indera Syahrul Mat Radzuan Universiti Tun Hussein Onn Malaysia Malaysia , Sabariah Eni Universiti Tun Hussein Onn Malaysia Malaysia , Abdul Jalil Omar Universiti Tun Hussein Onn Malaysia Malaysia , Zarina Shamsudin Universiti Tun Hussein Onn Malaysia Malaysia , Nor Hisham Md Saman Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) MalaysiaUrban regeneration has become an important strategy for addressing urban decline while promoting sustainable development. In Malaysia, rapid urbanisation and market-driven development have placed increasing pressure on historic urban areas, yet have created challenges for balancing development and heritage conservation. This paper examines the role of heritage-led regeneration within Malaysia’s urban regeneration agenda. Drawing on findings from the research titled “The Formulation of Urban Regeneration Policy Framework in Malaysia”, this study includes two focus group discussions with policymakers, local authorities, practitioners, developers, and academics. The paper explores the contribution of urban heritage to place identity, economic revitalisation, social cohesion, and sustainable urban development. The focus group discussions provided direct qualitative evidence that shaped the proposed five-dimensional framework, revealing that while heritage acts as an active socio-ecological driver, its success is strictly dependent on resolving governance fragmentation and institutionalising community participation to prevent the physical and cultural displacement of local communities. The findings indicate that heritage-led regeneration can effectively balance continuity and change through adaptive reuse, culture-led development, community participation, and integrated governance. However, several challenges remain, including development pressures, fragmented governance structures, inadequate conservation planning, and conflicts between conservation objectives and market interests. The paper proposes an integrated heritage-led regeneration framework that aligns heritage conservation with broader sustainability and urban resilience goals.

Rita Arianti Rokania University Indonesia , Misra Nofrita Rokania University Indonesia , Yundi Fitrah Jambi University Indonesia , Evizariza Lancang Kuning University IndonesiaThe urgency of this research is the current decline in student character due to the increasingly advanced influence of globalization, resulting in a moral crisis. To address this problem, teachers need to shape student character in the learning process through engaging content that incorporates local culture, namely Riau Malay folk songs. These folk songs are used as learning content because they contain many moral values, good character, and noble values that can shape students' personalities from an early age, such as mutual cooperation, politeness, obedience, caring, resilience, patience, and compassion. The purpose of this research is to develop an e-module based on Project Based Learning based on moral values in the songs of the Riau Malay people in Literature Learning in Class VIII of Junior High School in the Merdeka curriculum. This research method is a type of development research (Research and Development/R&D). The development model is the ADDIE learning design model (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation dan Evaluate). The results of this study show the results of expert validation of material, media, language, and presentation of this teaching material are Very Suitable for use in literature learning; and based on teacher assessments of the development of PjBL-based literature learning e-modules, it shows the category of "Very Suitable" and student responses to the e-modules also show "Very Suitable". The conclusion of this study is that the e-modules that have been developed meet the standards for use as teaching materials for literature learning in the Merdeka curriculum.
Pages: 36-47Views: 36 Downloads: 25Ecological Crisis and Oil Capitalism in Mudun Al-Milh: an Ecocritical Reading
Miftachul Huda UIN Sunan Kalijaga Indonesia , Nabhatun Nada Al-Azhar University EgyptThis study, titled “The Ecological Crisis and Oil Capitalism in Mudun al-Milh: An Ecocritical Reading”, examines the intersection of literature, environmental degradation, and capitalism through Abdurrahman Munif’s Mudun al-Milh: Al-Tih. It addresses the ecological crisis triggered by the rise of oil capitalism in the Arabian Peninsula, which disrupts the symbiotic relationship between indigenous communities and their environment. Using Greg Garrard’s ecocritical framework, this study analyzes how oil capitalism operates as a destructive force driving environmental and social transformation. Employing a qualitative descriptive method based on close reading and textual analysis, it explores the novel’s depiction of pre-oil oases, the intrusion of foreign extraction industries, and the resulting ecological collapse. The findings indicate that oil capitalism systematically transforms natural landscapes from pastoral environments into arid, apocalyptic spaces. This degradation is evident in deforestation, desertification, water pollution, and climatic disruption. Through the concepts of the pastoral, the apocalypse, and dwelling, the study demonstrates that fossil fuel extraction not only produces ecological crisis but also enacts slow violence, eroding indigenous lifeways and replacing them with unsustainable urban structures.
Pages: 48-56Views: 16 Downloads: 15Religious Tolerance as a Practice of Local Wisdom: The Legacy of Harmony in Dandangan Urban Village as a Pillar of National Social Resilience
Feren Yogi Pradewinta Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri Indonesia , Luluk Siti Jariyah Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri Indonesia , Dewi Azizah Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri Indonesia , Nur Awaliya Ala Ma'wah Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri Indonesia , Therecia Cheysa Febriana Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri Indonesia , Elda Viana Ndama Mudjuk Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri IndonesiaThis study analyzes religious tolerance practices in Dandangan Urban Village, Kediri City, as a form of local wisdom for maintaining harmony in a multicultural environment. It employs a qualitative approach with an instrumental case study design. Two informants were selected purposively: a Muslim community member and a Christian religious leader, both of whom possess an understanding of local social conditions. Data were gathered through observation, semi-structured interviews, and documentation, then analyzed using a reflective thematic approach and validated through source and method triangulation. The study reveals three key findings. First, interfaith interactions occur naturally through greetings, commercial transactions, daily communication, and meetings between religious leaders and community members. Second, stereotypes persist on a small scaleprimarily involving misunderstandings regarding loudspeaker usage and worship timesbut do not escalate into open conflict as they are managed through communication. Third, harmony is sustained through dialogue, mutual respect, adaptability, social closeness, and respect for the ritual autonomy of each religion. Based on these findings, the study formulates the concept of "proximity-based negotiated tolerance"a practice of tolerance maintained through social closeness, direct dialogue, and norms of non-interference regarding the ritual spheres of other groups. This concept is presented as a contextual finding of the case study rather than a universally proven model. The research demonstrates that everyday tolerance practices can serve as social capital to strengthen harmony and social resilience in multicultural environments.
Pages: 57-60Views: 57 Downloads: 23Preserving Cultural Heritage Through Ergonomic Innovation: Productivity Improvement Among Traditional Songket Weavers in Indonesia
Heri Setiawan Universitas Katolik Musi Charitas Indonesia , Micheline Rinamurti Universitas Katolik Musi Charitas IndonesiaTraditional Songket weaving is an important component of Indonesia’s intangible cultural heritage and creative economy. However, its sustainability is challenged by low productivity, an aging artisan workforce, and work related musculoskeletal disorders associated with prolonged static postures and non-ergonomic workstations. This one-group pretest-posttest study evaluated changes in occupational health and productivity following a four-week ergonomic workstation intervention among a predetermined sample of 18 active weavers in Palembang, Indonesia. Outcomes included Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA), Nordic Body Map (NBM), fabric output, motif completion, and effective working time. Pre-post comparisons showed reductions in REBA (51.3%) and NBM scores (45.9%) and increases in fabric output (18.8%), motif completion (22.9%), and effective working time (11.9%) (paired t tests, all p < 0.001). Because the design lacked a concurrent control group, these changes should be interpreted as associations with the intervention rather than definitive causal effects; maturation, repeated measurement, and production-demand variation cannot be excluded. The study directly measured occupational and production outcomes. Possible effects on artisan retention and heritage continuity remain a conceptual implication requiring longitudinal evaluation.
Pages: 61-74Views: 46 Downloads: 37Kaombo-Ombo: Wabula Maritime Heritage as Customary Coastal Defense in ASEAN Marine Governance
Bima Hafizhan Indonesia Defense University Indonesia , Dwi Yolanda Nusantari Situmorang Indonesia Defense University IndonesiaThis paper discusses Kaombo-Ombo, a maritime tradition among Wabula community in Buton Regency in Southeast Sulawesi. Kaombo-Ombo is considered as customary coastal defense in terms of non-traditional maritime security and ASEAN Marine Governance approach. Though there is no doubt about its role as customary wisdom and a way of conserving natural wealth, Kaombo-Ombo is regarded as a means to handle non-traditional maritime insecurity such as overfishing, destructive fishing activities, degradation of coastal ecosystems, and conflicts over marine resources. By using a qualitative literature-based case study with a socio-legal analytical perspective, this paper investigates how Kaombo-Ombo uses customary rules, institutions, community surveillance, and punishment for ensuring the health of coastal ecosystem. It reveals that Kaombo-Ombo follows Elinor Ostrom's recommendations on managing common pool resources in terms of clear boundaries, collective choice, communal monitoring, and graduated sanctions to promote social compliance. In addition, the paper argues that Kaombo-Ombo can be applied within ASEAN Marine Governance approach through its participatory and sustainable community-based management of the sea. Therefore, Kaombo-Ombo is not just customary wisdom; it is customary coastal defense approach to promote maritime security at various levels.
Pages: 75-85Views: 18 Downloads: 27The Politics of Recognition and Differentiated Citizenship Among in the O'hongana Manyawa Indigenous Community in East Halmahera
Abd. Firman Bunta Gorontalo State University Indonesia , Wahyudin Noe Khairun University IndonesiaThis study examines the formation of Indigenous citizenship among the Tobelo Dalam community in East Halmahera amid the dominance of extractivism that threatens their living spaces. Drawing on the perspectives of the politics of recognition and differentiated citizenship, recognition is positioned as a corrective prerequisite for addressing the structural disadvantages experienced by minority groups, particularly through the protection of collective territorial rights and the recognition of cultural heritage as the foundation of Indigenous citizenship.This study employs a qualitative case study approach, utilizing participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and documentary analysis. The collected data were analyzed through the processes of data reduction, data presentation, and verification. The findings demonstrate that the formal inclusion of the Tobelo Dalam Indigenous community has taken place through resettlement programs, civil registration, electoral participation, and limited involvement in local public offices. However, such recognition remains partial, as increased administrative visibility has not been accompanied by secure access to basic rights, including clean water and infrastructure, while the shrinking of forest-based living spaces continues without adequate protection mechanisms. These conditions reveal a paradox of citizenship, characterized by a tension between formal registration and substantive exclusion, in which the state is present administratively but remains ineffective in fulfilling its protective function. This selectivity is reflected in the asymmetry of legal certainty, where the recognition of Indigenous territories remains limited to the registration stage, whereas the designation of mining concession areas is established definitively—a condition conceptualized in this study as pseudo-integration. The study recommends a reorientation of development policies and the strengthening of citizenship education to ensure that administrative inclusion is meaningfully connected to the restoration of territorial rights.
Pages: 86-98Views: 70 Downloads: 42Waqf As Sustainable Funding For Shelter Homes: Addressing Human Trafficking Victim Protection in Malaysia
Siti Aishah binti Aslah International Islamic University Malaysia MalaysiaHuman trafficking creates a continuing obligation to protect survivors after rescue yet shelter services in Malaysia remain vulnerable to staffing shortages, delayed disbursements, uneven regional capacity, and dependence on annual public expenditure. This article examines whether waqf, including cash waqf and waqf-linked sukuk, could complement, not replace the government responsibility for victim protection. It uses a qualitative doctrinal and comparative method. Primary materials comprise the Anti-Trafficking in Persons and Anti-Smuggling of Migrants Act 2007, constitutional provisions on federal and state powers, selected Malaysian waqf legislation, official anti-trafficking and waqf materials, and policy documents. Secondary materials include peer-reviewed scholarships, NGO documentation, and international reports. The analysis applies a documentary coding framework and compares funding mechanisms according to continuity, principal preservation, beneficiary flexibility, accountability, and vulnerability to fiscal interruption. The article distinguishes documented evidence of service and resource constraints from conceptual propositions about waqf. It proposes a National Anti-Trafficking Waqf Fund (NATWF) with ring-fenced capital, independent Shariah and financial oversight, survivor-informed safeguards, transparent grant-making, and a phased Selangor pilot. The proposal is legally feasible only through structured cooperation between federal anti-trafficking institutions and state Islamic religious authorities. Waqf is therefore presented as a testable institutional complement whose effectiveness must be evaluated empirically before national adoption.
Pages: 99-107Views: 31 Downloads: 27Using the Fuzzy Delphi Technique to Develop the Components of a Holistic Rehabilitation Model for the Hijrah Fitrah Community (M-PHKHF)
Noor Hafizah Mohd Haridi Universiti Islam Selangor Malaysia , Ahmad Munawar Ismail Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia MalaysiaThis study aims to develop components of a Holistic Recovery Model for the Hijrah Fitrah Community (M-PHKHF), a framework assisting the rehabilitation of individuals in the LGBT community desiring a return to fitrah. Applying the Fuzzy Delphi Method (FDM) involving 21 experts, this study identified key components of the model based on expert consensus (threshold value d ≤ 0.2; expert agreement ≥ 75%). The result reveals four main components—Government, NGOs, Community Groups, and the LGBT Community—with validated sub-elements. The study further applies Interpretive Structural Modeling (ISM) to analyze the interrelationship among components. This model provides theoretical and practical implications for holistic rehabilitation efforts in Malaysia.
Pages: 108-122Views: 46 Downloads: 27Lived Realities After Skills Training: a Phenomenological Study of Out-of-School Youth in the Philippines
Mark Romy E. Nanali Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University Philippines , Jerry B. Carreon Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University Philippines , Joselito G. Fernando Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University PhilippinesThis phenomenological study explored the post-training lived experiences of out-of-school youth (OSY) in the Philippines who completed the Alternative Learning System (ALS), Electrical Installation and Maintenance program implemented in partnership with the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA) and the ALS Agoo West District. It examined how vocational teaching practices in a non-formal learning environment shaped participants’ employment, educational advancement, and socio-economic mobility. Nine ALS completers were purposively selected, and data were gathered through semi-structured interviews and focus group discussions. Narratives were analyzed using Braun and Clarke’s thematic analysis framework, with ethical clearance granted by the Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University (DMMMSU) Ethics Committee. Findings showed that seven participants secured employment in private industries as electricians, assembly technicians, solar installers, and related technical roles, while two pursued higher education. Participants reported improved technical competence, confidence, and employability, with TESDA certification serving as a key credential for workforce entry. However, barriers remained, including workplace discrimination, limited to access to tools and equipment, and financial constraints, particularly bias against ALS completers due to their non-traditional educational backgrounds. The study highlights vocational education’s transformative role in promoting social inclusion and advancing Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) 4 and 8.
Pages: 123-132Views: 136 Downloads: 44Taxpayer Perceptions of the Directorate General of Taxes' Supervision of Open Access Bank Transaction Data as a Tax Compliance Effort
Shonia Vanie Andhini ITEBIS PGRI Dewantara Jombang Indonesia , Omi Pramiana ITEBIS PGRI Dewantara Jombang IndonesiaThis study analyzes how taxpayer perceptions of the Directorate General of Taxes’ (DGT) oversight of bank transaction data through open access mechanisms vary across taxpayer types, and how these perceptions relate to efforts to improve tax compliance. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, primary data were obtained through in-depth interviews with two distinct informant groups, MSME owners and representatives of larger business entities, supported by secondary data from regulations and literature on financial information access. Results show systematic empirical distinctions between groups: MSME informants more frequently emphasized concerns about privacy violations, potential data misuse, and the administrative burden of compliance, whereas business-entity informants were more likely to view open access as enhancing transparency, reducing reporting errors, and strengthening deterrence against underreporting. Within each group, perceptions further varied by regulatory literacy, prior administrative experience with the DGT, and trust in data security safeguards. These findings indicate that the positive effects of open access on compliance are contingent on taxpayer type and moderated by understanding of regulations, confidence in data protection, and past interactions with tax authorities. To maximize compliance gains while protecting privacy rights, the DGT should tailor communication, data-protection guarantees, and educational programs to the specific concerns and capacities of MSMEs versus larger business entities.
Pages: 133-142Views: 45 Downloads: 16The Influence of Financial Literacy and Security Perceptions on the Use of QRIS as a Payment Tool by Students
Muhamad Ravi Aditya ITEBIS PGRI Dewantara Jombang Indonesia , Nur Anisah ITEBIS PGRI Dewantara Jombang IndonesiaThis study analyzes the influence of financial literacy and perceived security on the use of QRIS as a payment method among students of the Accounting Study Program at ITEBIS PGRI Dewantara Jombang. A quantitative research method with a descriptive approach was used, with a purposive sample of active students who had used QRIS (N = 93). Data were collected through a structured questionnaire and analyzed using multiple linear regression to test the hypothesized relationships between variables. The results show that financial literacy has a positive and significant effect on QRIS use, and perceived security also contributes significantly to driving QRIS adoption. Both variables jointly explain a meaningful proportion of the variance in QRIS use among accounting students. These findings indicate the importance of improving financial literacy education and strengthening the security aspects of digital transactions to increase QRIS use among students. Practical implications include recommendations for educational institutions and payment service providers to integrate educational programs and strengthen transaction security communication. Limitations of the study and suggestions for further research are also discussed.

Ananda Rahma Dea ITEBIS PGRI Dewantara Jombang Indonesia , Rachyu Purbowati ITEBIS PGRI Dewantara Jombang IndonesiaThis study examines how cash receipt and cash disbursement management influences the strategic decision-making process based on financial data through a descriptive qualitative study in a multi-division company, JNT Cargo Jombang. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with three informants: managers, finance staff, and administrative staff, observations of cash documentation, and studies of financial reporting documents. Analysis was conducted using data reduction, categorization, and triangulation. The results show that systematic cash receipt practices and real-time recording increase managerial confidence in financial data, thus supporting evidence-based strategic decisions. Strict cash disbursement management and effective internal controls help reduce uncertainty, although variations in SOPs between companies affect the consistency of data use. The study emphasizes the importance of standardizing cash procedures, increasing managers' data interpretation capacity, and integrating cash documentation into reporting systems to improve the quality of strategic decisions.
Pages: 153-161Views: 68 Downloads: 25Risk-Based Internal Control Analysis: A Case Study of the Production Process at CV Vetways Indonesia
Ayu Putri Agustin ITEBIS PGRI Dewantara Jombang Indonesia , Benih Hartanti ITEBIS PGRI Dewantara Jombang IndonesiaA risk-based internal control analysis of the production process at CV Vetways Indonesia identifies and mitigates operational losses. Employing a qualitative case study approach, data were gathered through in-depth interviews with three production managers and five line supervisors, field observations across four production lines, and a review of work procedure documents and quality reports from January to June 2025. The analysis focused on identifying key production risks, assessing existing controls, and recommending improvements based on COSO principles. The analysis revealed three critical risks: (1) raw material control gaps leading to material waste due to inadequate receiving inspections; (2) machine maintenance failures resulting in unplanned downtime and reduced production capacity; and (3) procedural non-compliance during the sterilization stage, necessitating the reworking of several production batches. Current controls are largely administrative, relying on manual post-production checklists, even for risks with documented mitigation procedures. Recommendations include implementing a five-level risk matrix, shortening preventive maintenance intervals from quarterly to monthly, mandating SOP training for production staff, and installing IoT sensors on critical machines for real-time monitoring. These findings enable CV Vetways to reduce operational losses and achieve GMP compliance within 12 months.
Pages: 162-171Views: 77 Downloads: 29The Effectiveness of Peer Storytelling on Students' Speaking at SMAN 7 Kota Kediri
Fadhilatul Khosy'ah Zd Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri Indonesia , Agung Wicaksono Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri Indonesia , Sulistiyani Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri IndonesiaThis study investigates the effectiveness of peer storytelling in improving eleventh-grade students' speaking at SMAN 7 Kota Kediri in the academic year 2025–2026. Many EFL students frequently encounter linguistic limitations, psychological barriers such as anxiety, and monotonous classroom methods that restrict authentic communicative practice. The purpose of this study is to examine whether peer storytelling using recount texts significantly improves students' speaking performance. A quantitative approach with a one-group pre-test and post-test design was employed, involving 22 students selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected primarily through performance-based speaking tests assessed using an analytical scoring rubric covering fluency, vocabulary, pronunciation, grammar, and accuracy, with a supporting Likert-scale questionnaire. Statistical analysis using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test revealed a statistically significant improvement in students' speaking scores (p < 0.001), with the mean score increasing from 46.18 (pre-test) to 61.45 (post-test). All 22 students demonstrated positive score gains. The questionnaire results indicated positive student responses toward peer storytelling implementation. These findings confirm that peer storytelling through recount texts effectively enhances students' speaking performance by fostering a collaborative, low-anxiety learning environment. Unlike previous studies that examined peer interaction or storytelling separately, this study uniquely combines both strategies through recount texts with senior high school students. Future research should involve control groups and longer treatment periods.
Pages: 172-175Views: 32 Downloads: 16The Reality of Fear of Missing Out (FOMO) in The Lives of Senior High School Students in The Social Media Era
Rizqi Amelia Septiani Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri Indonesia , Ikke Yuliani Dhian Puspitarini Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri Indonesia , Yuanita Dwi Krisphianti Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri IndonesiaThe development of social media has changed the way students obtain information, communicate, and build social relationships. On the other hand, the ease of continuously viewing other people's activities may be associated with Fear of Missing Out (FOMO), namely the concern that arises when individuals feel that they are missing out on other people's information, activities, or experiences. This article aims to examine the reality of FOMO among high school students, the factors that shape it, its consequences, and its implications for Guidance and Counseling services. This article employs a descriptive qualitative approach using a literature review design. The literature was selected based on its relevance to FOMO, social media, adolescent development, education, and Guidance and Counseling, prioritizing recent scientific sources while retaining relevant foundational theoretical sources. The synthesis results indicate that FOMO is formed through the interrelationship between the intensity of social media use, the need for social connectedness and acceptance, self-esteem, and social comparison. FOMO is not only associated with social media use behavior, but may also be related to disruptions in learning concentration, task postponement, anxiety, self-dissatisfaction, dependence on social validation, and reduced quality of direct interaction. The novelty of this article lies in developing a synthesis that connects psychological factors, social processes, digital behavior, and their consequences in the lives of high school students, and subsequently translates them into the needs of Guidance and Counseling services. The discussion indicates that addressing FOMO cannot be achieved solely by limiting social media use, but should also be directed toward strengthening self-control, digital literacy, the ability to cope with social pressure, assertive behavior, and independent decision-making.
Pages: 176-182Views: 72 Downloads: 42Character Building Through an Anti-Drug Education Program: A Study at SMP Pawyatan Daha 1 Kediri
Dewi Kurniasari Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri Indonesia , Nursalim Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri Indonesia , Wikan Sasmita Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri Indonesia: Drug abuse among adolescents is a problem that not only affects their health but can also influence students’ character development. Schools play a strategic role in prevention through Anti-Drug Education Programs, which not only provide knowledge about the dangers of drugs but also encourage the development of positive attitudes and behaviors among students. This study aims to analyze the role of the Anti-Drug Education Program in character development efforts among students at Pawyatan Daha 1 Junior High School in Kediri. This study employs a qualitative approach using a case study design. The research informants consisted of 9 individuals selected through purposive sampling, including the principal, the vice principal for student affairs, the coordinator of the Anti-Drug Education Program, a Civics teacher, the chair and vice chair of the Anti-Drug Task Force, two members of the Anti-Drug Task Force, and one student who participated in program activities but was not a member of the Anti-Drug Task Force. Data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation, then analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. Data validity was ensured through source triangulation and methodological triangulation. The research results indicate that the Anti-Drug Education Program is implemented on an ongoing basis through drug awareness campaigns, the formation of the Anti-Drug Task Force, Basic Student Leadership Training (LDKS), P4GN outreach, and habit-forming activities at school. The program plays a role in shaping students’ character through the three components of character identified by Thomas Lickona: moral knowing, moral feeling, and moral action. In terms of “moral knowing,” students gained a better understanding of the types, dangers, and impacts of drug abuse. In terms of “moral feeling,” students demonstrated an awareness to stay away from drugs, protect themselves, and care for their peers by reminding one another. In terms of “moral action,” students exhibited disciplined behavior, responsibility, cooperation, and active involvement in positive activities and the Anti-Drug Task Force. The program also contributes to the development of character values such as honesty, responsibility, discipline, compassion, cooperation, and respect. Research findings indicate that the Anti-Drug Education Program not only serves as a preventive measure against drug abuse but can also function as a vehicle for character education through a process that integrates students’ moral knowledge, moral awareness, and moral actions.
Pages: 183-189Views: 33 Downloads: 15ASEAN’s Role in Addressing Online Scam-Based Human Trafficking in Cambodia
Izzah Khalifatunnisa Universitas Darussalam Gontor IndonesiaAdvances in digital technology have fueled the emergence of a new form of human trafficking: scam-based online human trafficking. In Southeast Asia, Cambodia has become a hub for online scam operations that recruit victims through fake job advertisements and subsequently exploit them in online fraud schemes. This phenomenon is not only a form of transnational crime but also threatens human security, particularly the dimension of personal security, as victims experience confinement, forced labor, violence, and psychological pressure. This study aims to analyze the form of online scam-based human trafficking developing in Cambodia through the concept of personal security, examine ASEAN’s role in addressing it, and identify challenges affecting its effectiveness. This study employs a qualitative method using secondary data such as scientific journals, reports from international organizations, ASEAN documents, and other relevant sources. The findings indicate that ASEAN has undertaken various efforts through the ASEAN Convention Against Trafficking in Persons, Especially Women and Children (ACTIP), ASEANAPOL, SOMTC, and the ASEAN Multi-Sectoral Work Plan. However, its effectiveness faces challenges such as disparities in implementation among member states, limited coordination among law enforcement agencies, and the principle of non-interference. This study concludes that strengthening regional coordination and implementing more effective policies are necessary to address this threat in Cambodia.
Pages: 190-196Views: 48 Downloads: 41Bridging Faith and Professional Conduct: The Theoretical Foundations and Outcomes of Islamic Work Ethics
Khatijah Othman Universiti Islam Sultan Sharif Ali (UNISSA) Brunei Darussalam , Muhamadul Bakir Yaakub Universiti Islam Sultan Sharif Ali (UNISSA) Brunei DarussalamIslamic Work Ethic (IWE) bridges organizational input to produce better organizational outcomes. Rather than viewing work merely as a means for survival or economic gain, IWE elevates work as a core of ibadah (worship) to achieve virtue. Using an Islamic approach of belief based on the Quran as a pillar and combined with conceptual method from a systematic literature review (SLR), the research synthesizes philosophical, theological, and organizational scholarship to construct a theory-driven, construct-based model. The Quranic principles exegesis make a foundational philosophy as a pillar to connect the concept of IWE and organizational outcomes. The SLR identifies and integrates conceptual threads that explain how each axiom informs organizational norms and practices when mediated by Ibadah, and how those practices map onto measurable outcomes. The study’s primary contribution is a rigorously derived conceptual model that translates the abstract of philosophical foundations into actionable organizational constructs, offering a coherent vocabulary and logic for future empirical testing. Methodologically, the SLR provides a transparent audit trail linking source material to model components, clarifying assumptions and interpretive choices. Practically, the framework suggests targeted areas for organizational design and human resources interventions that align spiritual commitments with workplace behavior. The study demonstrates that Ibadah functions as the central mechanism translating five Islamic axioms of Tawḥid, Khilāfah, ‘Adl, Ikhtiyār, and Fard into concrete organizational practices. Empirical mapping shows each axiom aligns with specific functional pillars (Effort, Competition, Transparency, Responsible Conduct). The model clarifies causal pathways that spiritual commitments shape workplace motivations and norms through Ibadah, which then produce observable improvements in productivity, morale, and loyalty.

Siti Nuraisah Roslan Universiti Putra Malaysia Malaysia , Faridah Yunos Universiti Putra Malaysia Malaysia , Nurfarrah Syazleen Abdul Halim Universiti Putra Malaysia MalaysiaElliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) is a complex asymmetric key encryption method, while Hill Cipher (HC) employs a simpler symmetric encryption approach. A previous study found that a self-invertible key matrix (SI), which is built up from a domain of elliptical curve parameters over a prime field, has been implemented while sending a grayscale image through the combination system of ECC and HC. This paper focuses on evaluating image encryption algorithms by analyzing the entropy of encrypted grayscale images while utilizing an elliptic curve over a binary field to replace the role of the previously used elliptic curve, particularly during the key generation process. As a result, the transmission of grayscale images through this new technique achieves an entropy of approximately 3.9998.

Shafira Salwa Zahrani Universitas Pembangunan Nasional “Veteran” Jawa Timur Indonesia , Sri Panca Trisnaningsih Universitas Pembangunan Nasional “Veteran” Jawa Timur IndonesiaAccounting conservatism is an important principle in financial reporting that emphasizes prudence in recognizing gains and losses and contributes to improving the reliability of accounting information. This study aims to analyze and synthesize the influence of growth opportunity, debt covenant, and capital intensity on accounting conservatism based on the perspective of Positive Accounting Theory (PAT). This study uses a qualitative approach with a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method. Data were obtained from relevant national and international scientific articles identified through academic databases, including Google Scholar, Scopus, and SINTA. The literature selection process involved identification, screening, eligibility assessment, and full-text review, resulting in 10 articles that met the established inclusion criteria. The findings indicate that growth opportunity and debt covenant show inconsistent results across previous studies, while capital intensity demonstrates a relatively more consistent relationship with accounting conservatism, although several studies report insignificant findings. These differences may be associated with variations in company characteristics, industry sectors, observation periods, measurement proxies, and corporate governance mechanisms. Overall, the findings indicate that growth opportunity, debt covenant, and capital intensity are relevant factors in explaining accounting conservatism, although their effects vary across research contexts. This study contributes to the accounting literature by synthesizing previous findings and highlighting the relevance of accounting conservatism to financial governance, transparency, investor protection, and corporate accountability.

Muhammad Zabal Alfarid Piko Nugroho Muhammadiyah University of Ponorogo Indonesia , Sutrisno Muhammadiyah University of Ponorogo Indonesia , Ambiro Puji Asmoroini Muhammadiyah University of Ponorogo IndonesiaIn the current era, digital literacy helps students filter out hoaxes, assess the credibility of information, understand the values of Pancasila, appreciate diversity, and cultivate a sense of patriotism within the digital space. However, its implementation faces various challenges, including limited access to devices and the internet, students' limited ability to verify information, exposure to negative content, weak digital ethics, and disparities in teacher competence regarding the use of educational technology. The objectives of this study are to: (1) describe the implementation of digital literacy to foster national insight in the Industrial Revolution era, and (2) describe the challenges associated with implementing digital literacy to foster national insight. This study employs a qualitative approach using a case study method. Data collection was conducted through observation, interviews, and documentation, while data analysis techniques included data collection, data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing and verification. The study's findings are as follows: (1) The implementation of digital literacy to foster national insight in the Industrial Revolution era proceeds through three main stages: First, the process begins in the classroom with the use of Smart TV as interactive learning media to present national-themed material visually and to hone students' critical thinking skills. Second, the process continues with the reinforcement of digital ethics through collaborative guidance aimed at habituating students to filter out hoaxes. Third, the process culminates in concrete action, where the school facilitates students in producing content related to national insight for the school's social media channels and guides them in the wise use of artificial intelligence (AI). (2) The challenges that must be addressed regarding the implementation of digital literacy to foster national insight include limited access to devices and the internet, students' low capacity for information verification, exposure to negative content, a lack of understanding regarding digital ethics, and disparities in teacher competence in utilizing educational technology. This integration requires support through a relevant curriculum, contextual teaching materials, teacher guidance, and the cultivation of habits among students to use digital media wisely. Schools, teachers, families, and the community need to collaborate to ensure that technology serves not merely as a medium for information, but also as a means of fostering a national character that is critical, responsible, and adaptable to the demands of 21st-century education.

Nurul Hidayah Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri Indonesia , Nursalim Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri Indonesia , Wikan Sasmita Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri IndonesiaCharacter education of Godly values is an important part in the formation of students' character, especially in the perspective of Pancasila and Citizenship Education (PPKn) which aims to form citizens who have civic knowledge, civic skills, and civic disposition in accordance with Pancasila values. However, there is still a gap between the implementation of religious activities and the behavior of some students. This study aims to describe the implementation of character education of Godly values in the perspective of PPKn, analyze its contribution to the formation of student attitudes and behavior, and identify supporting and inhibiting factors of its implementation at MTsN 5 Kediri. This study uses a qualitative approach with a case study research type. Data were obtained through observation, interviews, and documentation with informants consisting of the principal, deputy head of curriculum, PPKn teachers, and students. Data analysis was carried out through data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions, while the validity of the data was tested using method triangulation. The implementation of character education based on Godly values is carried out through daily religious activities, periodic religious activities, a religious school culture, an honesty canteen, the integration of Godly values in PPKn learning, and extracurricular activities. Internalization of Godly values contributes positively to the formation of religious attitudes, discipline, responsibility, honesty, tolerance, courtesy, and social awareness in students. However, a gap is still found between religious practices and the behavior of some students. Supporting factors include the role of teachers and school members, a religious school culture, structured programs, family support, and positive peer influence. Inhibiting factors include differences in student character, lack of parental supervision, negative environmental and peer influences, social media, and limited learning time. From a PPKn perspective, the implementation of character education based on Godly values contributes to the formation of students' civic disposition as a form of practicing Pancasila values in everyday life.

Zuhairiah STAI Rasyidiyah Khalidiyah Amuntai IndonesiaThe rapid growth of digital technology has enabled minors in rural areas, such as Hulu Sungai Utara, to access smartphones without adequate parental supervision. While the Indonesian Personal Data Protection (PDP) Law grants privacy rights, its implementation among minors often creates a "privacy paradox." In these rural communities, children utilize privacy features like passwords and encryption to evade parental oversight, inadvertently increasing their vulnerability to cyber-enabled crimes, including sexual abuse and harassment. This study employs a legal-empirical approach to analyze the gap between data privacy regulations and the reality of child protection in Hulu Sungai Utara. The findings suggest that the lack of digital literacy among parents and the misinterpretation of privacy rights by minors hinder the effective enforcement of the law. This paper concludes that a more localized and collaborative legal framework is essential to bridge the gap between digital autonomy and the safety of minors.

Trias Florida Mangadili Indonesia Defence University Indonesia , T.S.N.B Hutabarat Indonesian Navy Headquarters Indonesia , Herliand Putra Octaviansya Tandayu Indonesia Defense University IndonesiaThe arrival of Rohingya boat people in Indonesia's territorial waters presents a complex policy dilemma involving state sovereignty, humanitarian obligations, and maritime security. Recurrent refugee movements, particularly in Aceh, affect maritime law enforcement, regional stability, and Indonesia's political responsibility, all amid the absence of a comprehensive national refugee framework. This article examines Indonesia's policy dilemma through the perspectives of maritime sovereignty, international maritime law, and non-traditional maritime security. Employing a qualitative library-research approach with a transdisciplinary lens, the study analyzes international legal instruments, national regulations, reports from international organizations, and scholarly literature on forced migration and maritime security, supported by UNHCR arrival data for 2023-2025 and a matrix of applicable international, national, and local regulations. Unlike previous studies that treat the Rohingya boat-people issue as either a purely humanitarian or a purely legal matter, this article's novelty lies in its integrative framework, situating the issue simultaneously within legal certainty and citizenship, state sovereignty, socio-cultural accommodation, and non-traditional maritime security. The findings indicate that Indonesia's response remains pragmatic and reactive, prioritizing humanitarian considerations without integrating them into national maritime defense and security strategy, thereby producing policy ambiguity that weakens sovereignty enforcement and creates vulnerabilities exploitable by organized transnational crime within territorial waters.

Hendy Arya Fahruddin Darussalam Gontor University IndonesiaThe Palestinian-Israeli conflict is one of the most complex and protracted international conflicts in the world. In addition to involving political, security, and territorial aspects, these conflicts are also closely related to national identity, history, cultural heritage or community security. Under the conditions of limited hard power, Palestine uses cultural heritage as an instrument of soft power to gain international legitimacy and support. This study aims to analyze how Palestine uses cultural heritage as an instrument of soft power in the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. This research uses the theory of Soft Power put forward by Joseph S. Nye or can be through the intermediary of other literature reviews that we can call "other than Joseph S. Nye", and the concept of cultural diplomacy as the framework of analysis. The research method used is a qualitative method with a literature study approach through scientific journals, books, international organization reports, and UNESCO documents. The results of the study show that Palestinian cultural heritage not only serves as a symbol of national identity, but also becomes an effective instrument of diplomacy in building a positive image and gaining international support. Through the promotion of culture, the preservation of historical sites, and UNESCO's recognition of Palestine's cultural heritage, Palestine has been able to strengthen its political legitimacy at the global level. This research concludes that cultural heritage has a strategic role as an instrument of Palestinian soft power in facing Israel's political and military dominance.

Pages: 294-304Views: 50 Downloads: 7A Clustering-Based Framework for Student Academic Performance Analysis and Learning Recommendations
Fardan Zamakhsyari Universitas Cahaya Surya Indonesia , Nadhira Fasya Salsabila Universitas Negeri Yogyakarta Indonesia , Rizka Suhana Universitas Cahaya Surya Indonesia , Sean Ryan Al Dzikri Universitas Cahaya Surya IndonesiaStudent academic data contains valuable information that can be used to support improved learning and decision-making in the field of education. However, conventional academic evaluations often rely on aggregate indicators such as the Cumulative Grade Point Average (GPA), which may not adequately represent the student's learning characteristics and academic needs. This research proposes a clustering-based system to analyze students' academic achievement and generate personalized learning recommendations. The academic records of first-semester students are collected and processed first through feature engineering, by categorizing courses into numerical, practical, and theoretical domains. Three clustering algorithms, namely K-Means, Agglomerative Clustering, and Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM), were evaluated using the Silhouette Score, Davies-Bouldin Index, and Calinski-Harabasz Index. The results showed that K-Means achieved the best performance with a Silhouette Score of 0.4926, the Davies-Bouldin Index of 0.5085, and the Calinski-Harabasz Index of 48.6175. The selected model resulted in three meaningful clusters, representing high, medium, and low-performing students. Based on the results of the grouping and learning profiles, a recommendation framework consisting of nine personalized learning strategies was developed and validated through expert assessment. The proposed system demonstrates the potential of integrating academic performance clustering with learning recommendations to support personalized learning, early academic intervention, and data-driven efforts to improve educational quality.

Despite growing scholarly attention to digital communication, limited studies have examined ethics degradation specifically within Indonesian academic communities using sociological frameworks. This study addresses that gap by examining the phenomenon of communication ethics degradation among students of Nusantara PGRI University Kediri (UNP Kediri), focusing on interactions within the comment sections of these two platforms. Employing a descriptive qualitative approach, data were collected through non-participant observation and semi-structured interviews. The findings reveal that students frequently engage in personal attacks, destructive sarcasm, negative labeling, and digital polarization when confronted with differing opinions. Drawing on Durkheim's framework of organic solidarity and anomie, these behaviors reflect a crisis of moral regulation within the digital academic community, driven by individual factors such as limited self-regulation, institutional gaps in digital ethics education, and structural factors including the algorithmic architecture of social media platforms. This study contributes a sociological lens to understanding digital ethics degradation in higher education, concluding that such degradation is not merely a linguistic issue but a symptom of weakening organic solidarity that demands systematic educational intervention.

The article argues that the future of diplomacy will depend on the international community's ability to adapt to new realities while preserving the principles of international law enshrined in the UN Charter. Key findings suggest that the supremacy of international law, institutional reform of the United Nations, and the development of professional diplomatic training will be essential for effective diplomacy in the multipolar era. The study concludes that diplomacy must evolve to address contemporary challenges while maintaining the core principles of international cooperation, mutual respect, and peaceful conflict resolution

Robby Ariny Manasikaka Darullughah Wadda'wah International Islamic University IndonesiaConventional Arabic language learning has been dominated by structural-mechanistic approaches emphasizing abstract rule memorization and mechanical drills, contributing to low student motivation and high language anxiety in many educational contexts. This systematic literature-based review examines how the STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics) framework offers a pedagogically promising alternative for Arabic language education in the 21st century. By synthesizing theoretical perspectives from contemporary language learning research and analyzing documented instructional models, this review examines the potential integration of Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) and Task-Based Language Teaching (TBLT) methodologies with STEAM principles. The analysis includes examination of two documented instructional design implementations at the higher education level and qualitative observations of immersive digital language learning applications on technological platforms. The literature synthesis suggests that STEAM-informed approaches may support more engaged, contextualized, and multimodal learning experiences compared to traditional methods; however, empirical evidence regarding specific cognitive and linguistic outcomes remains limited and requires further rigorous investigation using validated assessment instruments. This review identifies both promising pedagogical directions for language curriculum development and significant research gaps that must be addressed through systematic, longitudinal studies with appropriate control conditions
Pages: 421-430Views: 30 Downloads: 11Nusantara on the Plate: Biosphere, Mobility, Trade and the Archipelagic Social Landscape of Food
Ahmad Najib Ariffin Nusantara Academy of Development, Geocultures & Ethnolinguistics IndonesiaSoutheast Asia’s culinary landscape is an ancient, yet vibrantly living social archive shaped by shared biospheres, maritime mobility, and layered trade histories. This paper argues that the region’s common food heritage — from agricultural systems and cooking practices to spice blends and street‑food ecologies — should form a practical basis for cross‑border social cohesion. By reframing cuisine as a transnational social landscape rather than a set of national possessions, policy and community initiatives can leverage food heritage to strengthen regional solidarity, cultural diplomacy, and inclusive local and regional development. This study draws upon extensive fieldwork through personal travels, lived experiences, and direct interactions across the Malay Archipelago and beyond, complemented by systematic reviews of historical texts, scholarly literature, and archival sources, thereby integrating ethnographic observation with documentary analysis. Shared ecological endowments and centuries of regional trade and migration have produced overlapping culinary repertoires that can be mobilised as instruments of social unity and regional cooperation across the vast Nusantara

Naser Ali Abdulghani Idrees University of Benghazi LibyaThis paper examines the positive dimension of Libyan national consciousness that persists despite momentous challenges to state authority and territorial integrity. Rather than focusing on institutional collapse or armed fragmentation, the paper highlights three significant values embedded in Libyan society: the subordination of group identity to national sentiment, the mediating role of tribal and customary leaders in conflict resolution, and the cultural and political centrality of dialogue and negotiated settlement. Drawing on conflict-resolution theory, nationalism studies, and hybrid governance frameworks, the paper argues that these three values offer analytical and practical insights for Indonesia's own nation-building project, particularly in contexts where diversity threatens cohesion. The paper concludes with policy-relevant recommendations for strengthening national unity through investment in identity education, formal integration of customary mediators, and strategic addressing of regional grievances

Tuanku Muhammad Farras Universitas Syiah Kuala IndonesiaWalking is the most fundamental, environmentally friendly, and economically efficient mode of transportation in urban mobility systems. Nevertheless, pedestrian infrastructure in developing cities, particularly in Indonesia, remains highly marginalized, exposing pedestrians to severe safety risks and systematically excluding them from equitable access to urban mobility. Global research indicates that the Indonesian population is categorized as one of the least active walkers in the world, averaging only 3,513 steps per day. This phenomenon is not merely a cultural preference, but a direct consequence of a hostile built environment and developmental policies that heavily favor motorized vehicles, creating a deep-seated path dependency in transport-land use planning. Public spaces and pedestrian rights-of-way have been systematically neglected to facilitate the expansion of vehicular corridors, reflecting a persistent bias towards private motorization.This study aims to bridge an academic gap by conducting a comparative analysis of sidewalk planning failures across five major Indonesian heritage corridors: Suryakancana (Bogor), Braga (Bandung), Peneleh (Surabaya), Kota Tua (Jakarta), and Jurnatan and Kota Lama (Semarang). By integrating physical compliance evaluations with socio-spatial syntax analysis and power dynamics analysis, this paper uncovers the mechanisms of pedestrian marginalization and formulates practical recommendations for inclusive and sustainable mobility justice. The research employs three complementary analytical frameworks: (1) Global Walkability Index (GWI) and Importance-Performance Analysis (IPA) for physical compliance evaluation; (2) Space Syntax analysis for historical morphological transformation; and (3) Critical institutional analysis for contested sidewalk space dynamics. Findings reveal three primary failure points: First, pedestrian infrastructure suffers from a "cosmetic tourism" approach, where universal design-compliant accessibility is limited to primary tourist corridors while secondary streets remain non-compliant with SE PUPR No. 07/P/BM/2023. Second, deep-seated path dependency in favor of motorized travel has institutionalized mobility inequality, forcing low-income residents into the vulnerable category of "captive pedestrians." Third, sidewalk revitalizations are decoupled from local socio-economic realities, relying on punitive relocation of informal street vendors that dismantles local livelihoods. The study concludes that sidewalk planning in Indonesia must transition from visual beautification to genuine mobility justice, prioritizing universal design implementation across all urban scales, participatory stakeholder engagement, and pedestrian-first traffic calming

Yopi Meage Study Program of Primary Teacher Education, Universitas Baliem Papua Indonesia , Cliford Racelino Ratulangi Study Program of Management, Universitas Baliem Papua IndonesiaThis research examines the language shift of Hubla language among the Kurima indigenous community in Waena Kelurahan, Heram District, Jayapura City. This study aims to identify forms of language shift, factors causing language shift, and strategies for community-based Hubla language preservation. The research employs descriptive qualitative methods with a sociolinguistic approach. Data were collected through observation, interviews, documentation, and recordings with the Kurima indigenous community in Waena Kelurahan. The research results show that the Hubla language is undergoing shift marked by the dominance of Indonesian language use, bilingual use, code-mixing, and declining use of Hubla language among younger generations. Factors causing language shift include internal factors such as low use of Hubla language in the family and inadequate vocabulary mastery, as well as external factors such as urbanization, formal education, technology, social media, and multiethnic environment. The research also found that Hubla language preservation can be achieved through language use in the family, informal education, cultural activities, vocabulary documentation, and utilization of digital media as a means of preserving regional languages

Wan Nur’ashiqin Wan Mohamad Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia Malaysia , Norazha Paiman Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia MalaysiaThe contemporary digital environment demands robust epistemic vigilance, yet university language curricula rarely address this cognitive discipline. This qualitative, design-based study examines the tension between suspended and recovered scrutiny within an elective, English-medium instruction (EMI) undergraduate course focusing on building confidence through storytelling at a public university in Malaysia. Tracking 59 undergraduate students across a constrained first-person narrative task and a collaborative peer-feedback exercise, the research utilizes reflexive thematic analysis to evaluate student evaluative postures. Findings reveal a profound behavioural dichotomy: during peer assessment, students routinely suspended epistemic vigilance, prioritizing social harmony and offering uncritical praise ("the affirming void"). Conversely, when subjected to strict first-person narrative constraints, the same students successfully recovered epistemic restraint. They navigated the limits of their knowledge using two distinct cognitive archetypes: "Trimmers," who excised unwitnessable plot points, and "Bridgers," who logically re-engineered characters' perceptual access. The study concludes that critical discernment is highly structurally dependent. Embedding narrative limitations into instructional tasks effectively fosters the cognitive discipline required to resist unverified claims, transforming language pedagogy into a vital site for digital citizenship cultivation

Nor Najihah Saad Master's Program in Communication Science, Faculty of Social and Political Sciences, Universitas Gadjah Mada Indonesia , Dian Arymami Department of Communication Science, Universitas Gadjah Mada IndonesiaThis study examines the multicultural transformation strategies of Wartani, a community-based alternative media platform on Facebook, within the context of Southern Thailand's prolonged ethnic conflict. Mainstream Thai media have consistently framed this conflict from a state-security perspective, marginalizing local Malay-Muslim voices. Using a constructivist paradigm and a qualitative intrinsic case study method, data were collected through in-depth interviews with four purposively selected informants, observation of digital content on Wartani's Facebook page, and document analysis. Drawing on multicultural transformation theory, Atton's alternative media model, and Entman's framing theory, findings identify four strategies: (1) inclusive identity representation of marginalized groups including women and youth; (2) linguistic transformation through deliberate replacement of stigmatizing labels with neutral terminology; (3) dialogue-oriented content framing that repositions conflict as a humanitarian rather than a security issue; and (4) peace journalism principles applied to sensitive reporting. The study also reveals Wartani's dual positioning as both local and an alternative medium, enabling it to serve as a cross-cultural mediator within the digital public sphere. These findings contribute to multicultural transformation theory and the alternative media model within Southeast Asian peace and conflict studies

Muhammad Rafik Majelis Adat Indonesia Indonesia , Izharulhak bin Saiful Hafni Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri IndonesiaThis study examines the institutional and socio-legal complexities of Indonesian customary law (hukum adat) within traditional governance structures, focusing on the systemic tensions between state-centered legal centralism and living local norms. Drawing on the theoretical frameworks of legal pluralism and critical legal pluralism, alongside a decolonial critique of colonial legal constructions, this paper evaluates how customary systems navigate formal recognition under the 1945 Constitution, the 2014 Village Law, and the 2023 Penal Code. Through a comparative socio-legal analysis of three distinct traditional governance models—the Balinese Desa Adat, the Minangkabau Nagari in West Sumatra, and the Panglima Laot in Aceh—the research demonstrates that state recognition functions as a double-edged sword of control and empowerment. While formal legal subject status and statutory frameworks provide legal mechanisms for self-determination and territorial defense, they simultaneously subordinate fluid, cosmos-restoring living laws to rigid, bureaucratic state-centric criteria. This administrative co-optation weakens the autonomous dispute resolution and resource-governance capacities of traditional authorities, particularly in the face of neoliberal agrarian expansion. The paper concludes by proposing a deliberative, dialogical model of legal integration that safeguards the epistemological autonomy of adat, transitioning from subordinating weak pluralism toward a restorative, culturally responsive legal ecology

Sanket Agarwal Institute of Sports Science & Technology IndiaThis study evaluates the efficacy of contemporary cultural heritage and intellectual property (IP) frameworks in safeguarding the living, metaphysical realities of Yoga and Ayurveda. Emerging over 5,000 years ago as interconnected sister sciences in South Asia, these traditions conceptualize life (Ayuh) as a holistic state of equilibrium (Svastha). However, modern commercialization often subjects these practices to epistemic violence, reducing multidimensional spiritual pathways to biomechanical commodities. This research uses interdisciplinary legal and cultural analyses to assess the protective role of India's Traditional Knowledge Digital Library (TKDL) and the landmark 2024 WIPO Treaty on Intellectual Property, Genetic Resources and Associated Traditional Knowledge. By examining historical biopiracy cases—specifically turmeric, neem, and basmati rice—alongside the economic disparities highlighted by the Kenyan Mweri bark case, this paper exposes the "protection gap" inherent in current defensive publication regimes. The findings indicate that while digital indexing provides crucial prior art, it risks exposing sacred, orally transmitted traditions to public domain exploitation. To secure epistemic sovereignty, the study recommends transitioning to a human rights-centered IP framework integrated with secure technological interventions, such as Enterprise Digital Rights Management (E-DRM), cryptographic watermarking, and community-governed protocols like Mukurtu and Local Contexts Labels

Anisah Jihansari Madrasah Tsanawiyah Soleh Al Mubarok Indonesia , Izharulhak bin Saiful Hafni Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri Indonesia , Putri Hardiyanti UIN Sulthan Thaha Saifuddin Jambi IndonesiaThis study analyzes the reform of Arabic language education in Indonesia through a global citizenship education (GCE) framework. It examines the shift from traditional structural grammar (naḥw and ṣarf) toward modern communicative paradigms. Through a policy analysis of KMA 183 of 2019 and KMA 347 of 2022, alongside the Merdeka Curriculum (Kurikulum Merdeka), the research identifies critical structural gaps, particularly the neglect of sociolinguistic and strategic competences. Additionally, content analysis of Ministry of Religious Affairs (MoRA) textbooks reveals a systemic imbalance that favors passive civic compliance over active, rights-conscious global citizenship. To address these structural issues, this paper discusses curricular innovations including ethno-edutainment, STEM-Arabic integration, and the localization of global values inside pesantren spaces using terms like tawassuth and tasamuh. Higher education practices from institutions like UIN Malang and IAIN Kudus are analyzed as communicative laboratories. Ultimately, this study offers concrete policy recommendations to establish an equitable, globally aligned, and highly functional Arabic language education ecosystem across both urban and rural Indonesian madrasahs

Abdul Hakim Abdul Halim Kolej Profesional MARA MalaysiaThis study examines the economic trajectory and structural challenges of halal-based tourism in the interconnected jurisdictions of Singapore and the Malaysian state of Johor. Amid a strong post-pandemic recovery, the global Muslim travel market is projected to reach 245 million international arrivals by 2030, with associated expenditure of approximately USD 230 billion (Mastercard & CrescentRating, 2025). Using a comparative case-study methodology that synthesizes data from the Global Muslim Travel Index (GMTI), the Singapore Tourism Board (STB), and Malaysia's Department of Statistics (DOSM), the study finds that Singapore, despite its status as a non-OIC nation, has sustained its leadership through world-class infrastructure and an increasingly sophisticated digital-assurance approach to halal-friendly services, while Johor has positioned itself as a high-impact industrial and heritage destination under the Johor-Singapore Special Economic Zone (JS-SEZ). Critical challenges nonetheless persist, including an over-reliance on food-based services in Singapore and significant certification barriers facing small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Johor. The analysis suggests that aligning halal-tourism development with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and operationalizing a Responsible, Immersive, Digital, and Assured (RIDA) framework are essential for long-term competitiveness. The study concludes that regional synchronization of halal standards between Singapore and Malaysia, together with the completion of the Rapid Transit System (RTS) Link, will be among the primary drivers of economic value in the corridor's post-2026 landscape

Dwi Priyo Santoso Universitas Cahaya Surya Indonesia , Irfan Ramadhani Universitas Cahaya Surya Indonesia , Intan Dwi Febriani Universitas Cahaya Surya IndonesiaIndonesia ranks 18th out of 20 Asian nations in the 2024 EF English Proficiency Index with a score of 468, placing it in the 'low proficiency' category significantly behind regional peers such as the Philippines and Malaysia. Against this backdrop, the present study explores Informatics students' perspectives in their second semester regarding the implementation of podcasts within an English for Specific Purposes (ESP) context as a potential pedagogical solution. A mixed-methods design was employed, involving twenty participants selected through total sampling. Quantitative data were collected via a 4-point Likert scale questionnaire spanning seven dimensions, while qualitative data were gathered through semi-structured interviews with five respondents. Both datasets were analyzed using descriptive statistics and thematic analysis, then integrated through method triangulation. Findings indicated that all respondents had easy access to podcast content via digital platforms; 95% reported exposure to authentic English; 80% noted improvement in listening comprehension; and 75% indicated greater pronunciation confidence following regular podcast engagement. Moreover, 90% of the cohort voiced a strong preference for ESP podcast content addressing technical subjects, such as artificial intelligence, software creation, and cyber security. Therefore, the systematic incorporation of sustained, podcast-based activities into the ESP curriculum is strongly recommended

Herdian Tria Wulan Sari Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri Indonesia , Agus Widodo Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri Indonesia , Yunita Dwi Pristiani Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri IndonesiaThis study aimed to describe students learning motivation before and after the use of Kahoot! and to examine whether there was a significant difference in students' learning motivation before and after the implementation of the interactive learning media. This study employed a quantitative approach using a quasi-experimental method with a One Group Pretest-Posttest Design. The participants were 34 students of class XI TKR-1 at SMK Negeri 1 Kota Kediri. Data analysis consisted of descriptive statistics, the Shapiro-Wilk normality test, Levene's homogeneity test, and paired sample t-test. The results showed that the mean learning motivation score increased from 79.12 before the intervention to 93.85 after the use of Kahoot!, representing an increase of 14.73 points. The paired sample t-test yielded a t-value of 7.102 with a significance value of < 0.001, which was lower than 0.05. Therefore, the null hypothesis was rejected and the alternative hypothesis was accepted. These findings indicate that there was a statistically significant difference in students' learning motivation before and after the implementation of Kahoot!. The findings suggest that Kahoot! can serve as an alternative interactive learning medium for supporting student participation and learning motivation in Pancasila Education in vocational schools

Adel Permana Muhammadiyah University of Ponorogo Indonesia , Hadi Cahyono Muhammadiyah University of Ponorogo Indonesia , Ambiro Puji Asmaroini Muhammadiyah University of Ponorogo IndonesiaDemocratic values need to be instilled in students as part of developing the character of democratic citizens. The emergence of social media provides an opportunity for schools to integrate democratic values into the learning process. This study aims to analyze the strategy of internalizing democratic values through social media for students at SMP Negeri 3 Ponorogo. This study used a qualitative method with a case study approach. Data were collected through observations and interviews involving Pancasila Education teachers. The results showed that the strategy of internalizing democratic values was implemented through value transformation and value transactions. Value transformation occurred through the delivery of democratic content and a democracy-centered video production project. Value transactions were realized through discussions, question-and-answer sessions, and feedback within the context of Problem-Based Learning (PBL) and Project-Based Learning (PJBL). The implementation of digital democracy was seen through freedom of expression, digital participation, and digital literacy and ethics. Students actively expressed their opinions, provided comments on other groups' assignments, and conveyed their aspirations through digital media. In addition, teachers instilled the ability to filter information, use polite language, and respect differences of opinion. This study concludes that social media is an effective tool for instilling democratic values and strengthening digital democracy in schools

Zahra Rosyida Nur’aini Widarso Program Studi Pendidikan Pancasila dan Kewarganegaraan, Universitas Muhammadiyah Ponorogo Indonesia , Sutrisno Program Studi Pendidikan Pancasila dan Kewarganegaraan, Universitas Muhammadiyah Ponorogo Indonesia , Ambiro Puji Asmaroini Program Studi Pendidikan Pancasila dan Kewarganegaraan, Universitas Muhammadiyah Ponorogo IndonesiaThe phenomenon of Indonesian migrant workers has a significant economic impact on families, but on the other hand, it has complex psychosocial implications for the children they leave behind, which can also risk weakening their academic performance and engagement. This study aims to explore the negative impact of the psychosocial conditions of children left behind by parents working as migrant workers on their learning motivation. The method used is a qualitative method with a literature study approach. Data collection was conducted by searching scientific articles in the Google Scholar, Garuda, and DOAJ databases using the inclusion criteria of publications from 2020–2026 in full-text format, until 20 relevant articles were obtained for synthesis. Data analysis used content analysis techniques that include data reduction, data display, and drawing conclusions. The results of the study indicate that children of migrant workers experience psychosocial challenges such as loneliness, anxiety, low emotional support, and lack of supervision in learning, which directly reduce learning motivation and school well-being. However, the decline in learning motivation can be minimized if transnational communication is consistently established, support from surrogate families, creating a conducive school environment and government policies to maintain the welfare and education of migrant workers' children

Salma Nayla Puspita Sari Muhammadiyah University of Ponorogo Indonesia , Nadia Eka Nartika Sari Muhammadiyah University of Ponorogo Indonesia , Yogi Restuning Tinulatsih Muhammadiyah University of Ponorogo Indonesia , Arsenta Ariel Gilang Samudra Muhammadiyah University of Ponorogo IndonesiaStudent motivation plays an important role in students’ engagement, persistence, and participation in classroom learning activities. However, motivation is influenced by various psychological, instructional, social, and contextual factors. This study aims to examine the factors influencing student motivation in classroom learning and to identify strategies that may support students’ motivation and engagement. This study employed a systematic literature review approach with qualitative content analysis. Literature was searched using Google Scholar, ERIC, and ScienceDirect with combinations of the keywords “student motivation,” “learning motivation,” “classroom learning,” “student engagement,” “motivating teaching,” “teacher support,” and “Self-Determination Theory.” The search focused primarily on publications from 2020 to 2025, while relevant theoretical and contextual studies were retained when necessary. Following relevance and eligibility screening, 10 studies were included in the final qualitative synthesis. The findings indicate that student motivation is influenced by four interconnected dimensions: autonomy, competence, relatedness, and contextual influences. Competence and autonomous forms of motivation were consistently associated with positive learning-related outcomes, while teacher support, motivating teaching practices, classroom relationships, and learning environments influenced students’ motivation and engagement. The findings also indicate that student-centered and autonomy-supportive practices, competence-supportive feedback, positive teacher student relationships, and purposeful use of technology may support motivation. However, the applicability of these strategies varies according to educational level and learning context. Therefore, efforts to improve student motivation should consider both students’ psychological needs and the characteristics of the classroom environment

Alya Adelina Syahla English Education Department, Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri Indonesia , Sulistyani English Education Department, Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri Indonesia , Mahendra Puji Permana Aji English Education Department, Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri IndonesiaVocabulary mastery is an essential aspect of English language learning because it supports students’ ability to understand, communicate, and develop other language skills. However, many elementary school students experience difficulties in acquiring and retaining English vocabulary. This study aims to examine whether Kahoot!-based learning is associated with improvement in fourth-grade students’ vocabulary mastery. The study employed a pre-experimental design using a one-group pre-test and post-test approach. The participants were 26 fourth-grade students of MI Mambaul Ulum Dahu, selected through a total sampling technique. Data were collected through pre-test and post-test vocabulary assessments. Because the data were not normally distributed, the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test was used to examine the difference between pre-test and post-test scores. The findings showed that post-test scores were higher than pre-test scores. The highest score increased from 42 to 70, while the lowest score increased from 16 to 46. However, all students’ scores remained below the predetermined Minimum Mastery Criterion (KKM) of 75. The Wilcoxon test produced a significance value of 0.001 (p < 0.05), indicating a statistically significant difference between the two sets of scores. These findings suggest that Kahoot!-based learning was associated with improved vocabulary scores, although the results should be interpreted cautiously because the study used a one-group pre-test and post-test design and the students did not reach the KKM. Kahoot! may therefore serve as a useful interactive medium to support vocabulary learning among elementary school students

Nurma Fadila English Language Education Department, Faculty of Teacher Training and Education, Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri Indonesia , Agung Wicaksono English Language Education Department, Faculty of Teacher Training and Education, Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri Indonesia , Mahendra Puji Permana Aji English Language Education Department, Faculty of Teacher Training and Education, Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri IndonesiaSpeaking is a crucial skill in learning English as a Foreign Language (EFL), yet many senior high school students face significant challenges in developing their speaking abilities due to limited vocabulary, lack of confidence, and fear of making mistakes. This study investigates the effect of role-play using the window shopping model on the speaking skills of eleventh-grade students at SMAN 1 Purwoasri. Employing a quantitative approach with a pre-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design, the research involved 23 students selected through cluster sampling. Data were collected through speaking tests assessing grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, and fluency, and analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test. The findings revealed a significant improvement in students' speaking skills after the treatment, with the mean score increasing from 49.99 to 64.95 (Z = -4.122, p < 0.001). Vocabulary demonstrated the highest gain (20 points), followed by grammar (17 points), while pronunciation and fluency each improved by 6 points. The role-play method with the window shopping model proved effective in enhancing vocabulary and grammar, reducing speaking anxiety, and creating an engaging learning environment. This study contributes to the growing body of research on communicative language teaching approaches and provides practical implications for English teachers seeking innovative strategies to develop students' oral communication skills

Abdurrahman Wahid Pekalongan Indonesia , Thorida Nur Asih Institut Agama Islam Al-Fatimah Bojonegoro IndonesiaResearch into culture-based education has seen significant development over the past decade, in line with growing global attention to cultural diversity, inclusive education and intercultural competence. However, this research still exhibits various methodological gaps and theoretical fragmentation. This study aims to analyse global trends, methodological patterns, dominant themes and research gaps in the field of culture-based education through a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach. Research data were obtained from the Scopus database using keywords related to culture-based education, multicultural education, intercultural education and culturally responsive education for the period 2016–2025. The article selection process followed the PRISMA guidelines, resulting in 2,023 articles meeting the inclusion criteria. The findings indicate that publications on culture-based education have increased significantly over the past decade, culminating in 2025, and are dominated by countries such as the United States, Spain, Indonesia, the United Kingdom, and South Korea. Thematically, the research was dominated by education, the humanities, and cultural diversity, whilst studies on multicultural education, intercultural education, and multiculturalism remained relatively limited. From a methodological perspective, qualitative designs represent the dominant research paradigm (62.4%), primarily utilizing case studies and phenomenological approaches, while structured questionnaires serve as the most prevalent empirical instrument within the quantitative subset (24.1%). Conversely, experimental, longitudinal, and mixed-methods designs were still rarely employed. Furthermore, this research also reveals theoretical fragmentation due to a lack of integration of consistent theoretical frameworks. This study highlights the need to strengthen methodological rigor, integrate theory, and broaden the research focus to support the development of a more inclusive and sustainable culture-based education

Khalifa Rabbani Wardhiansyah University of Darussalam Gontor, Siman, Ponorogo IndonesiaCultural heritage has become increasingly important in contemporary international security studies as a result of the proliferation of non-traditional security hazards in the era of globalisation. In Southeast Asia, cultural identity and legacy are regarded as strategic instruments that serve to reinforce regional stability, societal cohesiveness, and state legitimacy, in addition to serving as historical assets. However, the ASEAN member nations' concerns regarding identity loss and cultural sovereignty have been exacerbated by the intensification of globalisation, digital misinformation, and transnational cultural contestation.. The objective of this paper is to examine the securitisation of cultural assets in ASEAN from the perspectives of soft power theory and securitisation theory. The research utilised a qualitative descriptive technique with a literature study approach, assessing academic journals, books, ASEAN papers, and UNESCO publications that were associated with regional security and cultural diplomacy. The findings indicate that ASEAN member states are increasingly resorting to cultural heritage as a form of soft power to fortify national identity, diplomatic influence, and regional legitimacy. Additionally, the ASEAN cultural diplomacy fosters the resilience of society, regional collaboration, and conflict avoidance in the presence of contemporary non-traditional security threats. Therefore, cultural legacy must be regarded as a strategic factor in the development of ASEAN's identity and regional security, in addition to a cultural asset

Bahruddin Universitas Dinamika, Jalan Raya Kedung Baruk 98, Surabaya, 60298, Indonesia Indonesia , Yunanto Tri Laksono Universitas Dinamika, Jalan Raya Kedung Baruk 98, Surabaya, 60298, Indonesia IndonesiaUrban cinema is frequently imagined as a democratic cultural space that enables participation, visibility, and cultural exchange. However, access to cinematic infrastructure in Indonesia remains deeply unequal. Commercial cinemas are heavily concentrated in metropolitan shopping centers, leaving peripheral communities facing spatial and socio-economic exclusion, while independent and regional creators struggle for screen access. This research examines cinema access inequality as a fundamental problem of communication justice. To analyze this dynamic, the study introduces the concept of the “Right to Screen” and proposes the Screen Access Justice Framework (SAJF), structured around three interrelated dimensions: access justice, circulation justice, and representational justice. Employing a critical qualitative approach, the methodology integrates literature review, policy document analysis (including Law No. 33/2009 and cultural strategic plans), and comparative spatial cinema mapping across three major metropolitan hubs: Jakarta, Tangerang, and Surabaya (collected between January and February 2026). The findings reveal a double exclusion: spatial concentration in high-income urban spaces and structural gatekeeping within concentrated commercial networks (dominated by Cinema XXI at 61.4%). Consequently, non-mainstream, regional, and independent narratives suffer symbolic annihilation within exhibition circuits. The paper operationalizes the SAJF into actionable empirical indicators, establishing the “Right to Screen” as a key conceptual framework to advance cultural democracy and mediated citizenship in screen studies

To create a harmonious life and avoid conflict, national integration efforts are necessary. The campus environment serves as a model of Indonesian society, serving as a strategic space for implementing pluralist values to strengthen national integration. This study, which examines the campus environment, aims to describe forms of national integration, analyze the implementation of pluralism, identify the role of pluralism in strengthening national integration, and identify supporting and inhibiting factors. This study employed a qualitative, descriptive approach. Data collection was conducted through observation, interviews, and documentation at Nusantara PGRI University, Kediri. The study involved students from Flores and local students. Data validity was tested using source and method triangulation. Data analysis was conducted through data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing.

Amanda Hermawan Student of Faculty of Social and Political Science, Universitas Muhammadiyah Indonesia Indonesia , Susi Dian Rahayu Faculty of Social and Political science, Universitas Muhammadiyah Indonesia IndonesiaBekasi city is one of the regions that has successfully reduced the rate of underage marriage. According to data from the Bekasi City Religious Court, the number of requests for marriage dispensations for minors has decreased every year. This study aims to analyze strategies for preventing child marriage in the City of Bekasi. The research method used is a qualitative method with a descriptive approach. Data collection techniques were conducted through interviews, observations, and documentation. This study utilizes the strategy theory by David Hunger and Thomas L. Wheelen, which states that a strategy consists of environmental analysis, strategy formulation, strategy implementation, and strategy evaluation. The results of the study indicate that the strategies implemented by the Bekasi City Women’s Empowerment and Child Protection Agency (DPPPA) include public awareness campaigns targeting communities and schools, education on the impacts of early marriage, fostering cross-sectoral collaboration with relevant agencies, and providing support to children and families. Additionally, the DPPPA utilizes social media and community empowerment programs to raise awareness regarding the importance of child protection. This study concludes that the strategies of the DPPPA of Bekasi City have been implemented fairly well; however, enhanced collaboration and more intensive education are needed to ensure that the prevention of child marriage can be carried out optimally

Nur Risa Gusnaini Sharia Economic Law Study Program, Faculty of Islamic Religion, University of Muhammadiyah Surakarta Indonesia , Triyono Adi Saputro Sharia Economic Law Study Program, Faculty of Islamic Religion, University of Muhammadiyah Surakarta IndonesiaThis study examines the application of Maqasid al-Shariah principles in cattle trading practices and analyzes them from the perspective of Sharia Economic Law. This qualitative empirical legal study is based on a semi-structured interview with one cattle trader in Boyolali, selected purposively based on direct experience in cattle trading. The findings show that the informant’s practices involve direct inspection of cattle, price negotiation, agreed payment arrangements, honest information disclosure, and deliberation in resolving disputes. These practices are particularly relevant to hifz al-mal (protection of property) and mutual consent (an-taradhin). Direct transactions enable buyers to examine cattle more clearly, while online transactions may increase the risk of misinformation because buyers cannot directly inspect the animals. From the perspective of Sharia Economic Law, the practices described are generally consistent with principles of clarity of the transaction object, mutual consent, transparency, and avoidance of gharar. Limited transaction documentation remains a challenge for strengthening certainty and accountability. As the study involves one informant, the findings represent a specific empirical case and cannot be generalized to all cattle traders in Boyolali. The study recommends strengthening transaction documentation and information transparency in cattle trading
Pages: 676-682Views: 17 Downloads: 4The Integration of Sharia Smart Contracts into the Regulation of Collecting Money or Goods, as a Solution to Synchronize the Provisions of the Indonesian Ulema Council Through MUI Fatwa No. 66/2022 Concerning Disaster Fundraising Practices on Social Media
Oyan Sugiyanto Faculty of Islamic Studies, University of Muhammadiyah Surakarta Indonesia , Triyono Adi Saputro Faculty of Islamic Studies, University of Muhammadiyah Surakarta IndonesiaThis study discusses the integration of sharia smart contracts into the Collection of Money or Goods (PUB) regulations as a solution to synchronize the provisions of the Indonesian Ulema Council through MUI Fatwa No. 66/2022 on disaster fundraising practices on social media. The rapid growth of digital donations often raises issues of transparency, accountability, and compliance with sharia principles. On the other hand, the Regulation of Money and Goods Collection (PUB) requires updates to keep pace with the development of blockchain-based technologies. This study uses a normative qualitative approach by analyzing regulations, fatwas, and digital fundraising practices in Indonesia. The results show that the integration of sharia smart contracts can be an automated mechanism that ensures funds are distributed according to sharia contracts, objectives, and principles in a transparent and documented manner. This system allows contract verification, real-time reporting, and restrictions on the use of funds to comply with the provisions of MUI Fatwa No. 66/2022. Thus, this integration has the potential to increase public trust, strengthen the governance of disaster fundraising, and create harmony between PUB 2026 regulations and sharia principles in the digital ecosystem

Muh. Taufik Ramadhan Universitas Islam Negeri Alauddin Makassar Indonesia , Fauzia Rahmadhani Universitas Islam Negeri Alauddin Makassar Indonesia , Alamsyah Agit Universitas Islam Negeri Alauddin Makassar Indonesia , Susilawati Muharram Badan Pengawas Pemilihan Umum Kota Parepare IndonesiaMicro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) are a highly resilient business sector. One common form of MSME is the cottage industry, which produces local products with unique characteristics or cultural values. This uniqueness makes some local products not only intended to fulfill functional needs but also serve as a medium for preserving ancestral heritage and the embodiment of folklore, traditions, and the history of a region. Products such as batik, woven cloth, Jepara wood carvings, shadow puppets, and other local products remain highly sought after by the public, demonstrating the significant potential of local products to play a role in the welfare of local communities. Research directed at analyzing the potential of products with cultural values is urgently needed to map strategic plans and the potential for cottage industry development. This research was conducted using qualitative methods and literature review that focuses on in-depth research on local products with cultural values. To analyze the advantages and potential of these products, literature analysis with deductive data analysis was used. The results of this study indicate that the uniqueness and cultural values of local products are advantages that provide their own value. This value makes local products such as batik still highly sought after. While continuing to produce culturally distinctive products, local communities are also building independence and financial capacity with the help of capital obtained from their home industries. However, strengthening and maintaining local products and improving the welfare of local communities requires the government to play a role in innovative, diverse, and inclusive community empowerment to gradually reduce inequality
Pages: 691-703Views: 23 Downloads: 7Machines and Maqasid: Evaluating Mechanized Slaughter in the Global Halal Food Industry
Nabilla Pramesti Linggarnisa Universitas Muhammadiyah Surakarta Indonesia , Triyono Adi Saputro Universitas Muhammadiyah Surakarta IndonesiaThe global food and beverage industry is undergoing a transformation through automation and mechanization of production. In halal meat production, the mechanical slaughter system raises issues related to the validity of fulfilling the requirements of dhabihah as an act of worship in Islamic law. This study aims to analyze the validity of the law of mechanical slaughter in the perspective of fiqh across madhhabs and maqasid al-shariah. The research uses a normative legal method with a literature study approach that integrates the comparative fiqh analysis of the four Sunni schools and the framework of maqasid al-shariah. The study identified five dominant mechanical slaughter technologies, namely rotating blade, electrical water bath stunning (EWBS), captive bolt stunning non-penetrative (CBS-NP), controlled atmosphere stunning (CAS), and robotic slaughtering system that have different legal implications. Analysis shows that there is an agreement that machines only function as tools (alah), not legal actors (fa'il), so they still need Muslim operators who pronounce basmalah and supervise. Based on the framework of maqasid al-shariah, this study formulates three main principles, namely the Principle of Machine Instrumentality, the Principle of Absolute Stunning Reversibility, and the Principle of Integrity of the Comprehensive Halal Chain as the basis for the harmonization of intersect halal certification standards and global halal food industry regulations

Ni Kadek Juliantari STKIP Agama Hindu Amlapura Indonesia , Ni Komang Sri Mariati STKIP Agama Hindu Amlapura IndonesiaThis article was written due to the increasing use of language that is not humanistic or does not pay attention to good language ethics, so that learning needs to be based on the local wisdom of asah, asih, asuh. This article aims to describe the local wisdom of asah, asih, asuh as the foundation for forming language attitudes in learning. The data in this article were collected during the learning process using Indonesian as the medium of instruction in higher education. Data collection was carried out through observation, document studies, and interviews. Data analysis was carried out using verbal narratives with data validity tests using data triangulation techniques. The results indicate that the local wisdom of asah, asih, asuh plays an important role as a foundation for forming language attitudes in learning in higher education. The value of asah is reflected in the use of critical thinking processes and non-discrimination through language. The value of asih is evident in the use of language that prioritizes politeness. The value of asuh is evident in the attitude of guiding and fostering through good and correct language. The findings of this study show that the local wisdom of asah, asih, asuh is relevant as a foundation for learning in higher education. These values not only strengthen students’ communication competencies, but also shape humanistic character in academic and social life.

Nadira Khodri Universitas Muhammadiyah Surakarta Indonesia , Triyono Adi Saputro Universitas Muhammadiyah Surakarta IndonesiaGlobal demand for halal tourism has opened substantial opportunities for Indonesia's culturally distinctive cities, Surakarta among them. Yet the sector's growth in this city has been constrained by two intertwined issues: modernization pressures that erode local cultural authenticity, and a halal industry agenda that has prioritized formal certification while giving comparatively little attention to Javanese cultural revitalization. Responding to this gap, the present study examines how optimizing the halal industry can be paired with the revitalization of Javanese cultural heritage to advance sustainable tourism in Surakarta. A qualitative, library-based research design was employed, drawing on academic journals and prior studies analyzed through content analysis. Two main findings emerged. First, the halal industry contributes strategically to sustainable tourism by weaving together economic, social, and religious dimensions under a maqashid syariah framework. Second, Javanese cultural assets the Surakarta such as Keraton, batik, wayang, gamelan, and cultural festivals function as a cultural bedrock that lends authenticity to the Muslim tourist experience. The study concludes that pairing halal industry optimization with the revival of Javanese heritage yields a tourism model that is at once competitive, sustainable, and culturally anchored, positioning Surakarta as a frontrunner among culture-based halal destinations

Niko Firmansyah Putra Department of Islamic Law, Faculty of Islamic Studies, Universitas Muhammadiyah Surakarta Indonesia , Triyono Adi Saputro Department of Islamic Law, Faculty of Islamic Studies, Universitas Muhammadiyah Surakarta IndonesiaDigital transformation has expanded market opportunities for creative-economy enterprises while simultaneously increasing the importance of formal business identity, halal assurance, intellectual-property protection, and access to digital public services. Sragen Regency has strengthened its physical creative-economy ecosystem through the establishment of the Sentra Industri Kreatif dan Kerajinan (SIKK). Nevertheless, the relationship between such infrastructure and the legal readiness of local creative businesses requires careful normative assessment. This study examines how the digitalization of business legality may contribute to the competitiveness of Sragen’s creative economy and how this process can be evaluated from the perspective of Islamic economic law. The research employs normative legal research using statutory, conceptual, and policy-document approaches. The legal corpus includes Government Regulation No. 28 of 2025 on Risk-Based Business Licensing, Government Regulation No. 42 of 2024 on Halal Product Assurance, Government Regulation No. 24 of 2022 on the Creative Economy, relevant intellectual-property legislation, DSN-MUI Fatwa No. 146/DSN-MUI/XII/2021, official OSS/BKPM and BPJPH materials, regional policy documents, and recent peer-reviewed scholarship. The study does not infer local behavioural prevalence in the absence of empirical evidence. Instead, it identifies normative and documented implementation risks relating to legal formalization, digital capability, institutional coordination, and accessibility. The analysis demonstrates that a Business Identification Number (NIB) concerns administrative legality and does not by itself determine the validity of a transaction under Islamic law. Within the maqāṣid al-sharīʿah framework, business formalization and intellectual-property protection can support ḥifẓ al-māl, while halal assurance primarily supports ḥifẓ al-dīn and may contribute to ḥifẓ al-nafs where product safety and ṭayyib considerations are involved. Sadd al-dharīʿah supports reducing opportunities for corruption and opaque discretionary procedures, but it cannot justify digital-only licensing that excludes less digitally capable users. Accordingly, an inclusive, assisted, auditable, and interoperable digital-legality ecosystem is proposed as the most appropriate model for strengthening legal certainty and the competitiveness of Sragen’s creative economy

Lu’lu’ An-Najah University of Darussalam Gontor IndonesiaThe 2021 military coup in Myanmar created political instability and posed significant challenges to regional security in Southeast Asia. As a regional organization, ASEAN has sought to address the crisis through various diplomatic efforts, including the use of digital diplomacy. Digital diplomacy has become an important instrument for facilitating communication, coordination, and cooperation among member states in responding to regional conflicts. This study aims to analyze the role of ASEAN's digital diplomacy in responding to the Myanmar crisis and its contribution to maintaining regional security stability in Southeast Asia. This research employs a qualitative descriptive method using a literature review approach. Data were collected from academic journals, books, official ASEAN documents, reports from international organizations, and other relevant sources related to digital diplomacy, the Myanmar crisis, and regional security. The findings indicate that ASEAN has utilized digital diplomacy through virtual meetings, online consultations, digital communication platforms, and official statements to coordinate responses to the Myanmar crisis. These efforts have contributed to strengthening regional cooperation, facilitating dialogue among member states, and preventing further escalation of instability in the region. However, the effectiveness of ASEAN's digital diplomacy remains constrained by the principle of non-interference and differing political interests among member states. Despite these challenges, digital diplomacy has become an important mechanism for supporting ASEAN's efforts to maintain regional security stability in Southeast Asia

Nindia Ayu Lilian University of Darussalam Gontor IndonesiaThe ongoing Russo-Ukrainian war has been accompanied by intensive cyber operations targeting Ukraine's critical national infrastructure. This study addresses the growing problem of cyber attacks directed at Ukraine's electrical grid and civilian communication systems, which have posed significant risks to national security, public safety, and essential services. The purpose of this research is to analyze the impact of Russian cyber attacks on the stability, resilience, and functionality of Ukraine's electrical grid and communication infrastructure, as well as to assess the cascading effects on civilian life. A qualitative research method is employed, combining case study analysis of major cyber incidents (including the 2015 and 2016 power grid attacks, and ongoing disruptions during the full-scale invasion), review of technical reports from cybersecurity firms, and examination of official statements from Ukrainian government and international organizations. The findings indicate that Russian cyber attacks have caused repeated power outages, hindered emergency communication systems, disrupted internet connectivity, and exacerbated humanitarian challenges. Furthermore, the attacks have demonstrated a pattern of hybrid warfare, where cyber operations are coordinated with kinetic military strikes. The study concludes that Ukraine's infrastructure resilience has improved over time through international technical assistance and adaptive defensive measures, but significant vulnerabilities remain
Pages: 758-766Views: 23 Downloads: 12Preah Vihear Dispute and ASEAN Regional Security Challenges
Rifa Rifqiyatun Nisa Universitas Darussalam Gontor, Ponorogo IndonesiaThe Preah Vihear dispute illustrates how cultural heritage, sovereignty, domestic nationalism, and interstate security can become mutually reinforcing in Southeast Asia. This study examines the dispute between Thailand and Cambodia and its implications for ASEAN regional security. The principal analytical period is 2008–2011, when the dispute escalated after the temple was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List, while the 2013 International Court of Justice (ICJ) interpretation is used only as a legal endpoint for assessing the clarification of sovereignty. The study employs a qualitative single-case design based on structured literature and document analysis. Sources were selected from peer-reviewed scholarship, official ASEAN and UNESCO documents, ICJ judgments, and Indonesian diplomatic records. The analysis applies Regional Security Complex Theory (RSCT) through four operational dimensions: security interdependence, amity-enmity patterns, polarity, and regional boundaries. The findings show that the 2008 UNESCO inscription did not create the underlying territorial dispute or determine the international boundary. Rather, it increased the political salience of a cultural site already embedded in a sovereignty contest. Domestic nationalist mobilization made compromise more politically costly and contributed to the escalation of border tensions. The conflict became a regional security concern because two ASEAN members engaged in armed confrontation, prompting ASEAN diplomatic engagement and Indonesia’s mediation as ASEAN Chair in 2011. At the same time, ASEAN’s institutional norms of sovereignty, non-interference, consultation, and consensus constrained coercive collective action. The case demonstrates that a bilateral territorial dispute can become regionally consequential when security interdependence activates regional institutions, while ASEAN’s capacity to manage the crisis depends on member-state consent and diplomatic leadership

Suprihani Rahayu Wilujeng Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri Indonesia , Ikke Yuliani Dhian Puspitarini Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri Indonesia , Yuanita Dwi Krisphianti Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri IndonesiaPeer interaction is a crucial factor influencing the social development and character formation of adolescents within the school environment. Therefore, a valid and reliable instrument is required to measure the quality of such interactions. This study aimed to conduct an initial psychometric evaluation (pilot study) of a peer interaction scale developed based on theoretical aspects of adolescent social interaction. A descriptive-analytical quantitative approach was employed, involving 47 Grade XI students from MAN 1 Kediri City as the pilot sample. The instrument tested was a four-point Likert scale comprising 40 items. Item discrimination was analyzed using the corrected item-total correlation technique (r-table = 0.288; df = 45; alpha = 0.05), while reliability was evaluated using Cronbach’s Alpha per dimension. Following data verification and the correction of entry errors, items meeting the critical correlation threshold were retained. The dimensional Cronbach’s Alpha values indicated a good level of internal consistency. These preliminary results suggest that the scale possesses promising psychometric potential for further testing with a larger sample and could support school guidance and counseling services. Based on the validity and reliability tests, the Peer Interaction Psychological Scale is suitable for assessing the peer interactions of MAN Kediri City students in the next stage of research

Anita Novialumi Manajemen, Universitas Bina Insani Indonesia , Fajri Ngaingatun Nangimah Manajemen, Universitas Bina Insani IndonesiaGreater Bekasi, one of Southeast Asia’s largest industrial regions, faces a socio-economic challenge in which rapid industrialization coincides with the gradual erosion of local Betawi and Sundanese cultural identities. This study examines the relationships among Industrial Culture Exposure (ICE), Local Wisdom-Based Human Capital (LWBHC), Digital Adaptation (DA), and Creative Economy Sovereignty (CES) among culture-based micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in the Greater Bekasi region. Grounded in Human Capital Theory, the Resource-Based View, and Dynamic Capability Theory, this study employs a quantitative approach using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). Data were collected from 200 MSME actors through purposive sampling. The findings indicate that Industrial Culture Exposure negatively affects Local Wisdom-Based Human Capital, whereas Local Wisdom-Based Human Capital positively influences Digital Adaptation. Digital Adaptation, in turn, significantly enhances Creative Economy Sovereignty. Significant indirect effects through Local Wisdom-Based Human Capital and Digital Adaptation provide evidence of the mediating mechanisms proposed in the model. Theoretically, this study extends the Resource-Based View by positioning local wisdom-based human capital as a culturally embedded strategic resource that can support dynamic adaptation within industrial societies. Practically, the findings provide policy insights for strengthening local cultural capabilities and digital adaptation to support sustainable creative economy development amid industrial transformation

Mustika Faidah Syam Department of Community Education, Faculty of Education, Universitas Negeri Makassar Indonesia , Windya Tripuspita Lestari Department of Community Education, Faculty of Education, Universitas Negeri Makassar Indonesia , Suci Tri Anjani Department of Community Education, Faculty of Education, Universitas Negeri Makassar Indonesia , Fathul Mahsun Department of Community Education, Faculty of Education, Universitas Negeri Makassar Indonesia , Latang Department of Community Education, Faculty of Education, Universitas Negeri Makassar IndonesiaThis study investigates the remediation of the Bugis cultural expression “Tabe” within digital communication practices among Bugis youth in Indonesia. Traditionally, Tabe’ represents a verbal and nonverbal politeness practice expressed through bodily gestures symbolizing humility and respect. However, the transition from physical interaction to virtual communication has transformed Tabe’ into a symbolic linguistic strategy embedded in digital micro-interactions. This research aims to analyze how Bugis youth reconstruct and negotiate cultural politeness through social media and instant messaging platforms. Using a qualitative netnographic approach, data were collected from WhatsApp groups, Instagram comments, Telegram communities, and Facebook interactions involving Bugis-speaking youth between January and March 2026. The findings reveal that Tabe’ functions as a digital face-saving mechanism used to request permission, soften directives, reduce interpersonal tension, and preserve collective identity in online environments. The study further demonstrates that digital technology does not eliminate indigenous cultural values but instead facilitates their symbolic adaptation into virtual communication practices. The research contributes to intercultural communication and digital culture studies by proposing the concept of symbolic politeness remediation in computer-mediated communication

Dini Andreswari Prianbudi University of Nusantara PGRI Kediri Indonesia , Agus Widodo University of PGRI Nusantara Kediri Indonesia , Yunita Dwi Pristiani University of Nusantara PGRI Kediri IndonesiaDiscipline is an important value in vocational education that plays a role in shaping students into responsible, orderly individuals who are prepared to meet the demands of the workforce. Various disciplinary violations are still found in the school environment, including tardiness, non-compliance with school rules, and a lack of responsibility in completing assignments. This study aims to describe strategies for instilling a disciplined character in students at SMK Negeri 1 Kota Kediri, to depict the state of student discipline, and to identify the factors that support and hinder its implementation. The study employed a qualitative approach using a case study design. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation involving the principal, the vice principal for student affairs, the head of the discipline committee, guidance and counseling teachers, subject teachers, practical training instructors, and students. Data analysis was conducted through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The research findings indicate that the cultivation of discipline is carried out through habit-forming activities, modeling positive behavior, supervision, enforcement of rules, and the use of rewards and sanctions. Students’ discipline levels fall into the “good” category, although some forms of disciplinary violations were still observed. Supporting factors include the commitment of the school community, a conducive school environment, and parental support. Inhibiting factors include varying levels of student awareness, peer influence, and conditions in the environment outside of school. The research findings indicate that the integrated and consistent implementation of strategies contributes to the development of students’ disciplined character in vocational high schools

Aaliyah Ummi Dyan Pramesti University of Darussalam Gontor IndonesiaGovernment failure in handling the protection of journalists and media teams from armed conflict to individual attacks still often occurs in Southeast Asia, especially the Philippines. Such violence raises significant concerns regarding the protection of fundamental rights and press freedom. However, the applicable lead framework depends on the context of the violence. In situations of armed conflict, journalists may receive protection under intrnational humanitarian law, while killings and attacks occuring outside armed conflict are primarily addressed thorugh international human rights law and domestic criminal law. However, journalist massacre activities still often operate to silence information regarding issues of political crimes, corruption and coups which should still be published to the global community. Using qualitative methods, this research focuses on the human security that is threatened by journalists and the media in conflict with constitutional democracy which is connected to the cultural foundations that support the violent acts that occur. Consequently, this research explains the relevance of human security integrated with the constitutional democratic system to explain the fragmentation in the Philippine government system in press freedom and constitutional democracy which is inversely proportional to the massacre of journalists

Nayla Safirotu Khoir Universitas Islam Negeri K.H. Abdurrahman Wahid Indonesia , Dinda Hafna Sari Universitas Islam Negeri K.H. Abdurrahman Wahid IndonesiaThe rapid development of digital technology has increased the need for innovative and relevant learning that equips students with 21st-century competencies. STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) and STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics) provide interdisciplinary approaches that connect knowledge with authentic problems and projects. This article examines the role of STEM/STEAM integration in creating innovative learning and fostering students’ critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, communication, and problem-solving skills. A literature review was conducted by analyzing relevant scientific publications on STEM and STEAM implementation in education. The findings indicate that STEM/STEAM integration promotes active, contextual, collaborative, and project-based learning. The inclusion of Arts in STEAM provides opportunities for creative expression, design, and innovation, while digital technology supports the connection between theoretical knowledge and practical application. However, successful implementation depends on instructional design, teacher readiness, technological access, learning resources, and appropriate assessment. Therefore, STEM/STEAM integration represents a promising approach to creating meaningful and innovative learning experiences that develop students’ 21st-century skills and prepare them to adapt creatively to technological developments and global challenges

Salma Azzahra Anindya Sayekti Universitas Muhammadiyah Surakarta Indonesia , Triyono Adi Saputro Universitas Muhammadiyah Surakarta IndonesiaSharia economic contracts are fundamentally built on the principles of mutual consent (an-taradhin), justice, balance, transparency, and good faith. However, in practice, contract formation can face issues such as defective will, ambiguity, or invalidity of the object or substance of the contract, which have different characteristics and legal consequences. This study aims to analyze the legal basis, form, and consequences of defective will in Sharia economic contracts based on Islamic law and Indonesian positive law, and to examine its threat to contemporary economic contract practices, including digital transactions. This study uses normative legal research methods with regulatory, conceptual, and analytical approaches. The legal material discussed includes provisions of the Indonesian Criminal Code (KUHP) on the requirements for a valid contract and defective will, fatwas from the National Sharia Council (DSN-MUI) regarding Sharia economic contracts, jurisprudence, and Islamic legal and contract law literature. The results indicate that defects in wills, such as coercion (ikrah), mistake (ghalath), fraud (tadlis), and involvement in certain circumstances, are associated with disruptions to the parties' freedom and awareness in giving consent. Meanwhile, jahalah and gharar cannot be automatically equated with defects in wills because both relate to ambiguity or lack of authorship in objects or transactions, while substantive invalidity relates to elements of the contract that contradict legal provisions or Sharia principles. This distinction results in diverse legal consequences, including the contract being voidable, fasid, bāṭil, or mauquf, depending on the type and severity of the violation. In digital contract practice, issues of information transparency, standard clauses, unequal bargaining power, and electronic agreement mechanisms can increase the risk of disruption to the parties' agreements. Therefore, adherence to transparency, legal protection, good faith, the principle of prudence, and legal certainty are necessary to maintain fairness in contracts while supporting public trust and economic independence as part of strengthening economic integrity.

Halim bin Ismail Kulliyyah of Education, International Islamic University Malaysia Malaysia , Noor Aiman Zailan Kulliyyah of Education, International Islamic University Malaysia MalaysiaThe transformation of Islamic Education pedagogy in Malaysian schools has become increasingly important in response to technological change, evolving learner needs, and growing demands for inclusive and contextually responsive teaching. Guided by PRISMA guidelines, this systematic literature review synthesises 22 peer-reviewed studies published between 2010 and 2025 to examine contemporary pedagogical approaches and teaching practices in Malaysian school-based Islamic Education. The analysis identifies five interrelated themes: (1) digital and technology-integrated instruction; (2) student-centred and active learning; (3) culturally responsive and multicultural pedagogy; (4) integrative and values-based pedagogical approaches; and (5) specialised and inclusive pedagogy for students with special educational needs (SEN). Overall, the reviewed literature indicates an increasing emphasis on technology-enhanced and learner-centred practices, accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic and broader educational transformation. However, implementation remains uneven because of limitations in teachers' technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK), disparities in infrastructure and access, insufficient multicultural resources and competencies, and inadequate adaptation of teaching materials for learners with special educational needs. The review suggests that future development should prioritise sustained teacher professional learning, equitable access to educational resources, culturally responsive pedagogy, and inclusive instructional adaptation. These measures may strengthen Islamic Education's capacity to remain pedagogically relevant while maintaining its spiritual, ethical, and educational foundations

Nabila Fairuz Ramadhani Universitas Darussalam Gontor, Ngawi IndonesiaThe coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) pandemic has not only caused a global health crisis, but has also given rise to an infodemic phenomenon in the form of an abundance of information, including medical misinformation, which spreads rapidly through various digital platforms. In the ASEAN region, high internet penetration and social media use have accelerated the spread of inaccurate information related to Covid-19, such as claims that drinking harmful chemicals can treat Covid-19, conspiracy theories about the origin of the virus, and claims that vaccination is dangerous and can lead to infertility. This condition has the potential to disrupt the public health response and reduce public trust in government institutions. This study aims to analyze the spread of medical misinformation related to Covid-19 and its implications for ASEAN regional security. The method used in this study is a qualitative research approach with a literature case study through the analysis of various scientific journals, international organization reports, policy documents, and relevant official publications. The results show that medical misinformation during the pandemic has affected people's behavior, hindered health care efforts, and strengthened traditional security challenges in the region. In addition, differences in digital capacity and information handling policies in ASEAN countries also affect the effectiveness of responses to infodemics. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen regional cooperation through policy harmonization, increase digital literacy, exchange information between countries, and collaborate with digital platforms to build regional resilience against future misinformation threats

Della Sinta Amelia Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri Indonesia , Ikke Yuliani Dhian Puspitarini Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri Indonesia , Yuanita Dwi Krisphianti Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri IndonesiaThis study aims to develop and determine the feasibility of the Jenga Card Against Procrastination (KALASI) game as a guidance and counseling medium to help reduce students' academic procrastination. The study employs the Research and Development (R&D) method using the ADDIE model, which encompasses the stages of analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. The medium's feasibility was assessed by subject matter experts, media experts, and users (guidance and counseling teachers). The assessment results indicate feasibility scores of 85% from subject matter experts, 94.4% from media experts, and 95% from users, placing the medium in the "highly feasible" category. The developed product is the KALASI Jenga game, comprising game blocks, four types of game cards organized based on aspects of academic procrastination, a spinner, and a user manual. Field testing was conducted with six students exhibiting high levels of academic procrastination. Student response questionnaires showed scores exceeding 79% for every statement, indicating a positive reception from the students. Based on these findings, the KALASI Jenga game is deemed highly feasible for use as a guidance and counseling medium. It can help students understand academic procrastination behaviors and encourage them to reduce task-delaying habits through engaging, interactive, and enjoyable gameplay. Consequently, the KALASI Jenga game serves as an innovative alternative medium for guidance and counseling services in addressing students' academic procrastination

Rinda Octa Hestida Putri Guidance and Counseling Study Program, PGRI Nusantara University Kediri Indonesia , Ikke Yuliani Dhian Puspitarini Guidance and Counseling Study Program, PGRI Nusantara University Kediri Indonesia , Yuanita Dwi Kri\ Guidance and Counseling Study Program, PGRI Nusantara University Kediri IndonesiaLearning activeness is an important factor in learning success, yet many students remain reluctant to ask questions, take part in discussions, or express opinions. This study examined the effectiveness of group guidance with psychodrama techniques in improving students' learning activeness. A quasi-experimental study with a non-equivalent control group design was conducted at SMAN 3 Kediri, East Java, between 29 April and 13 May 2026. From a population of 69 tenth-grade students (classes X-11 and X-12), 14 students whose screening scores fell in the low category were selected through purposive sampling and allocated by intact class: seven students from X-12 formed the experimental group (group guidance with psychodrama) and seven students from X-11 formed the control group (group guidance with Focus Group Discussion). Both groups received four sessions on identical themes, led by the same group facilitator. Learning activeness was measured with a four-point Likert scale adapted from Ummah (2019); item analysis on a separate tryout sample of 72 students (df = 70; critical r = .232) retained 35 of 38 items, with item-total correlations of .276-.702 and Cronbach's Alpha of .907. The data met the assumptions of normality (Shapiro-Wilk, all p > .05) and homogeneity of variance (Levene's F = 3.369, p = .091), and the two groups were equivalent at pre-test, t(12) = -0.784, p = .448. The experimental group's mean rose from 68.29 to 109.43, t(6) = -29.652, p < .001, whereas the control group showed no significant change, t(6) = 1.050, p = .334. Mean N-Gain was 57.39% (moderately effective) for the experimental group and -1.01% (not effective) for the control group. The post-test difference between groups was significant, t(12) = 25.918, p < .001, MD = 41.286, 95% CI [37.815, 44.756]. Psychodrama can therefore serve as an effective alternative technique within group guidance services, although the small sample limits generalisation

Rimma Melinda Putri Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri Indonesia , Yuanita Dwi Krisphianti Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri Indonesia , Guruh Sukma Hanggara Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri IndonesiaBullying in secondary schools is not only a behavioral problem but also a social and educational issue because it can weaken students’ sense of safety, belonging, responsibility, and respect for others. This systematic literature review (SLR) examines the role of peer support in bullying behaviour among secondary-school students and distinguishes peer support from peer conformity, peer interaction, and friendship environment. It also examines how peer-led prevention can be connected to civic education and the development of civic dispositions. The review follows the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA 2020) reporting framework. Searches were conducted in SINTA, DOAJ, ERIC, and Scopus using predefined Boolean combinations and a publication window of 2015–2026. The screening record used in the manuscript reports 142 identified records, 54 duplicates removed, 88 records screened, 42 full-text reports assessed, and 10 studies included in the qualitative synthesis. The included evidence comprises cross-sectional and correlational studies, qualitative case studies, and one large longitudinal study. Overall, positive peer support is associated with lower bullying involvement and better psychosocial outcomes, whereas peer conformity and negative peer environments can be associated with greater exposure to bullying-related behaviour. Importantly, longitudinal evidence shows that friendship and social support do not necessarily prevent later bullying victimization, indicating that the protective role of peer support should not be overstated as a direct causal effect. Peer-led prevention can nevertheless create opportunities for students to practice empathy, respect, responsibility, inclusion, and participation. The review concludes that schools should treat peer relationships as a social mechanism whose effects depend on the norms, quality, and direction of peer influence, while integrating peer-based prevention with whole-school policy and civic education

Novi Nitya Santi Elementary School Teacher Education Study Program (PGSD), Faculty of Teacher Training and Education, Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri Indonesia , Kurniawan Wahyu Pratama Elementary School Teacher Education Study Program (PGSD), Faculty of Teacher Training and Education, Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri IndonesiaInclusive education in elementary schools requires pedagogical innovations that accommodate learner diversity while enabling meaningful participation and the development of competencies needed in the twenty-first century. This conceptual study proposes the TPS-Webbed Inclusive Learning Model, which integrates Think Pair Share (TPS), the Webbed thematic approach, and inclusive pedagogy. The model is intended primarily for inclusive elementary classrooms serving students with disabilities who can participate in shared classroom activities with individualized supports, including students with mild intellectual disabilities, specific learning difficulties, communication and language needs, hearing or visual impairments, physical disabilities, and other access needs. An integrative literature review and conceptual synthesis were conducted using a documented search and screening procedure. Searches were designed around four concept clusters: inclusive education/disability, cooperative learning/TPS, thematic-integrated/Webbed learning, and twenty-first-century competencies/4Cs. Sources were screened for conceptual relevance, peer-reviewed or authoritative status, educational context, and contribution to model construction. The resulting model specifies six phases; Thematic Orientation, Think, Pair, Share, Collaborative Elaboration, and Reflection and Inclusive Assessment, and embeds accessibility supports, assistive technology options, multimodal communication, and alternative response modes throughout the sequence. The model also defines observable indicators for critical thinking, communication, collaboration, and creativity and proposes inclusive assessment criteria emphasizing progress, participation, access, and quality of performance rather than a single response mode. Because the model has not yet undergone expert validation or classroom testing, its expected effects are presented as theoretical propositions rather than demonstrated effectiveness. The contribution of the model is therefore conceptual: it combines thematic curriculum organization with structured peer interaction and disability-responsive access within one instructional architecture
Pages: 899-908Views: 14 Downloads: 8The Mandala Model: A Conceptual Framework for Preserving Cultural Identity in Local Culture-Based Elementary School Teacher Education
Ayu Titis Rukmana Sari Surabaya State University Indonesia , Wahyudi Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri IndonesiaSocial and cultural transformation in the era of globalization presents challenges to the preservation of cultural identity in education, particularly among prospective elementary school teachers. Prospective teachers are required to integrate local culture into learning as a foundation for character formation and the strengthening of students' cultural identity; however, current learning tends to provide limited opportunities for learning experiences rooted in local culture. This article aims to develop the Mandala Model as a conceptual framework for local culture-based learning in elementary school teacher education. This study employs a conceptual approach through an integrative literature review and synthesis of theories encompassing social constructivism, experiential learning, culturally responsive teaching, and local culture-based education. The review resulted in a conceptual framework of the Mandala Model that places local culture at the center of learning through the processes of Manembah (reflection/observation), Ngripta (creativity), Daya (actualization), and Laku Adiluhung (evaluation/reflection). The Mandala Model is conceptually expected to strengthen cultural identity, creativity, and cultural literacy among prospective elementary school teachers. The Mandala Model makes a conceptual contribution by integrating local culture-based learning and experiential learning within a holistic learning framework

Nurul Azimah Community Education Program, Faculty of Education, Makassar State University Indonesia , Andini Sartika Permatasari Hendra Community Education Program, Faculty of Education, Makassar State University Indonesia , Dewi Sandra Community Education Program, Faculty of Education, Makassar State University Indonesia , Sri Rahmadani Community Education Program, Faculty of Education, Makassar State University Indonesia , Latang Community Education Program, Faculty of Education, Makassar State University IndonesiaThis study examines the theoretical role of self-control as a potential moderator in the relationship between need to belong and Fear of Missing Out (FoMO) among university students through a systematic literature review. FoMO refers to the concern that others may be experiencing rewarding social experiences without oneself and is closely related to persistent monitoring of digital social activities. The literature reviewed suggests that need to belong is associated with sensitivity to social inclusion and exclusion, while self-control is related to the capacity to regulate attention, cognition, emotion, and behavior. Based on thematic synthesis, three pathways are proposed through which self-control may weaken the relationship between need to belong and FoMO: attentional regulation, cognitive reappraisal, and digital behavioral management. A four-profile heuristic typology is also proposed by combining need to belong and self-control. Importantly, the moderating relationship and the four-profile typology are theoretical propositions rather than statistical findings of this study because no interaction analysis was conducted. The proposed framework therefore provides a basis for future empirical research, particularly quantitative studies testing the interaction between need to belong and self-control in predicting FoMO

Iman Kristina Halawa Sekolah Tinggi Teologi Aratamar Bengkulu IndonesiaThe development of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) has transformed academic writing practices in higher education. However, existing studies mainly focus on the benefits and risks of AI use, while limited attention has been given to how humans and AI collaboratively produce academic knowledge. This study aims to examine Human-AI Collaboration in faculty academic writing, identify the distribution of cognitive roles between humans and GenAI, and develop a conceptual model that supports both academic productivity and research integrity. A qualitative approach employing an Integrative Literature Review was used to analyze studies published between 2022 and 2026. Thematic synthesis was conducted on literature related to Generative AI, Human-AI Collaboration, Augmented Intelligence, Responsible AI, and academic writing. The findings reveal that GenAI has evolved from a technical writing assistant into a cognitive partner that supports idea generation, knowledge processing, manuscript development, and revision. The study proposes a conceptual Human-AI Collaboration model in which humans retain epistemic control through human oversight, while GenAI functions as an augmentative system. The model highlights that academic productivity, research integrity, and Responsible AI are interconnected dimensions of knowledge production in the GenAI era

Yulia Nasrul Latifi Sunan Kalijaga State Islamic University Yogyakarta IndonesiaThe discourse on the objectification of women persists to this day, one instance of which is the perpetuation of the theological-masculine discourse of the rib—the narrative that Eve was created from Adam’s rib. As a counter-discourse aimed at liberating women, this research examines the deconstructive meanings in “Taktubīn al-Syi’r.. wa Auqa’ Anā..” a poem written by Nizār Qabbānī through the lens of Jacques Derrida’s deconstruction theory. This theory rejects binary oppositions and suspends meaning due to the ever-shifting contexts and perspectives within a text; consequently, the meaning of a text is never stable, and the hierarchy of the regime of meaning is destabilized by the text itself. Accordingly, this research argues that the discourse of the rib is a patriarchal myth: a woman was not created from a man’s rib, but rather, it is men who emerge from a woman’s womb. This reversal of the binary opposition stems from the instability of meaning within both the male subject and female object positions. This instability occurs because meaning is constantly deferred due to the presence of a strong historical trace of ancient matriarchy. Ultimately, dismantling this centralized meaning is essential to achieving egalitarian gender relations

Izharulhak bin Saiful Hafni Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri Indonesia , Jarot Wahyudi UIN Sunan Kalijaga Yogyakarta IndonesiaThis paper examines South Africa's application to the International Court of Justice (ICJ) on 29 December 2023, which alleges Israel has breached its obligations under the 1948 Genocide Convention in relation to Palestinians in the Gaza Strip. The study focuses on the contention that public statements by Israeli officials demonstrate genocidal intent, specifically direct and public incitement to commit genocide as per Article III(c) of the Convention. The primary objective is to employ forensic linguistic analysis to identify and scrutinise linguistic markers indicative of dolus specialis (specific intent to destroy a protected group, in whole or in part) within these pronouncements and to discuss their implications for the ICJ case. This research utilises a qualitative content analysis methodology, with a forensic linguistic approach, applied to official and public statements by senior Israeli officials (including the Prime Minister, President, and Defence Minister) made between October 2023 and April 2024. Data are drawn from South Africa's ICJ application, reports from human rights organisations such as Amnesty International, and verified transcripts. The analysis identifies key linguistic patterns, including dehumanisation (e.g., "human animals"), collective attribution of responsibility (e.g., "an entire nation out there that is responsible"), and symbolic, potentially annihilatory references (e.g., the invocation of 'Amalek'). The findings suggest these statements exhibit characteristics consistent with the actus reus of incitement and contribute to inferring mens rea for genocide. The paper concludes that forensic linguistic analysis reveals systematic discursive strategies in official Israeli rhetoric that are pertinent to establishing genocidal intent under international law, thereby providing a linguistic evidential basis for South Africa’s claims at the ICJ
