This study investigates the role of Information Technology (IT) governance in enhancing risk management performance and ensuring regulatory compliance within multinational digital enterprises. As digital transformation continues to reshape the global business landscape, organizations face increasing challenges in managing technological risks and complying with complex regulatory requirements across various jurisdictions. The study adopts a quantitative approach, using a survey methodology to collect data from senior IT and compliance managers in multinational digital enterprises. The survey focuses on how IT governance frameworks, such as COBIT 2019 and ISO 27000, are utilized to align IT strategies with business objectives, mitigate risks, and maintain regulatory compliance. The findings indicate that organizations with well-established IT governance structures are better positioned to proactively identify and mitigate risks, ensuring greater consistency in meeting regulatory requirements. These organizations demonstrate improved risk management effectiveness, especially concerning cybersecurity, data privacy, and compliance with global regulations like GDPR. In contrast, organizations with ad hoc or decentralized governance structures struggle with fragmented risk management and compliance efforts. The study further highlights the importance of integrating IT governance frameworks with internal audit functions, specifically the Chief Audit Executive (CAE), to enhance cybersecurity resilience and ensure compliance with global standards. This research contributes to the literature by providing empirical evidence on the integration of IT governance, risk management, and regulatory compliance in multinational enterprises. It also highlights the need for a structured and systematic approach to IT governance to improve organizational performance in managing risks and ensuring consistent regulatory adherence. The study offers practical insights for organizations looking to optimize their IT governance structures in the face of rapid digital transformation.

This study explores the integration of critical pedagogy with digital literacy, aiming to reconceptualize digital literacy beyond its traditional focus on technical proficiency and operational skills. Traditional digital literacy models emphasize the ability to navigate and use technology, primarily focusing on operational tasks such as managing digital devices, utilizing software, and performing specific functions. However, these models often overlook the broader implications of technology on society, including its role in shaping power dynamics and perpetuating social inequalities. By integrating critical pedagogy, this study argues that digital literacy should not only encompass technical skills but also encourage learners to critically assess the social, political, and cultural implications of digital tools. The critical digital literacy approach promotes social justice, equity, and empowerment by encouraging learners to question, reflect on, and challenge the ways in which technology influences their lives and society at large. Through critical engagement with digital tools, learners are empowered to challenge existing power structures, fostering social transformation. The study discusses how educators can integrate critical digital literacy into teaching practices, moving beyond traditional skill based models by encouraging critical thinking, ethical use of technology, and a deeper understanding of the role digital technologies play in shaping societal structures. Moreover, the study highlights the transformative potential of critical digital pedagogy, proposing it as a tool for educational equity and social change. By reconceptualizing digital literacy through a critical pedagogical lens, this study offers a framework that empowers students to become not just proficient digital users but active participants in societal transformation, contributing to a more inclusive and just digital future. The study also suggests areas for future research, including empirical investigations on the practical implementation of critical digital literacy frameworks across various educational settings and contexts.

Adapting to students’ learning styles is a key factor in enhancing the effectiveness of higher education, particularly in Informatics programs where learning preferences vary widely. This study aims to segment students based on their learning styles using the K-Means clustering algorithm, guided by the VARK model (Visual, Auditory, Read/Write, Kinesthetic). Data were collected from 130 Informatics students, including information on their learning preferences, and processed through normalization techniques. The optimal number of clusters was determined using the Elbow Method and Silhouette Score, and subsequent cluster interpretation was conducted. The results identified three dominant clusters, each representing distinct learning behavior patterns. These clusters were analyzed to recommend tailored instructional strategies for each group. Specifically, Visual learners were found to benefit from graphic-heavy materials, Auditory learners preferred lectures and discussions, Read/Write learners thrived on written content and detailed notes, while Kinesthetic learners responded best to hands-on activities. The findings support the development of adaptive, data-driven teaching approaches that align with the actual learning tendencies of students in Informatics. Moreover, the study demonstrates that the K-Means method is effective in systematically identifying student learning profiles, which can be used to inform instructional improvements. This personalized approach to teaching could significantly enhance learning outcomes by providing students with the most effective educational experiences tailored to their individual learning styles

Manual handling of incoming letters in government institutions often results in inefficiencies in recording, tracking, and disposition delivery. This study aims to develop a Java-based application for managing incoming letter dispositions to enhance administrative efficiency at the Office of Population Control and Family Planning (DPPKB) of Nabire Regency. The system was developed using the waterfall method, which includes the stages of analysis, design, implementation, testing, and maintenance. The results show a 30% increase in disposition speed and a 50% decrease in recording errors. Furthermore, the application supports real-time letter tracking and role-based user access. The findings indicate that digitizing the letter disposition system can significantly accelerate administrative processes and reinforce the principles of good governance.

Management of incoming and outgoing mail archives is a crucial aspect of organizational administration, including at the Waharia Village Office. Currently, the archiving process is still done manually, posing various challenges such as lengthy search times, risks of document damage or loss, and the need for extensive storage space. To address these issues, this research developed a web-based mail archiving information system. The study findings indicate that the web-based archiving system enhances the efficiency and effectiveness of archive management by enabling quick and easy recording, storage, and retrieval of mail archives. Documents can be accessed from anywhere with an internet connection, equipped with advanced search features to expedite the retrieval process. Furthermore, the use of digital storage reduces the risks of document damage or loss, while controlled access management enhances data security.    

Sustainable agriculture faces a major challenge in maintaining the availability and efficient use of fertilizers. Information technology, particularly web applications, has the potential to optimize fertilizer stock management, improve productivity, and enhance household food security for farmers. This study aims to analyze how web technology can improve the efficiency of fertilizer stock management in sustainable agricultural practices. Through literature review and interviews with stakeholders, this research identifies the benefits of web technology in fertilizer stock management, such as improved accuracy in demand forecasting, minimized stock losses, and increased timeliness in fertilizer distribution. The results show that web-based information systems can integrate production data, stock, and fertilizer needs, facilitating decision-making and supporting real-time fertilizer distribution. The implementation of this technology provides significant benefits for farmers, web technology developers, and policymakers, and contributes to efficient and environmentally friendly sustainable agricultural practices.
