This study investigates the role of scaffolding assessment in fostering self-directed learning (SDL) within project-based learning (PBL) environments in higher education. Scaffolding assessment, characterized by gradual guidance, helps students transition from structured support to greater autonomy while enhancing critical thinking, goal-setting, and self-regulation. Through a mixed-methods approach, the study examines students' perceptions and experiences of scaffolding interventions in a research-based course. Quantitative findings reveal positive impacts on autonomy, critical thinking, and goal-setting, while qualitative insights highlight the importance of tailored scaffolding tools, motivational elements, and digital adaptability.Although scaffolding significantly enhances SDL by promoting independence and cognitive engagement, challenges remain in optimizing digital tools and addressing individual learning needs. Personalized scaffolding strategies and motivational scaffolds are essential for sustaining long-term engagement and effectively supporting diverse learners in complex, research-intensive environments. This study underscores the importance of adaptive scaffolding designs that balance structure and flexibility, offering practical implications for educators seeking to implement scaffolding assessments to enhance student autonomy and learning outcomes in higher education.

This study evaluates the effectiveness of BPOM’s mentoring programs for Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in the natural medicine and cosmetics sectors in navigating complex regulatory requirements to obtain product licenses. Despite the strategic role of MSMEs in supporting Indonesia’s economy, regulatory compliance remains a significant challenge, particularly due to limited resources and market access. Previous studies have highlighted the need for adaptive regulatory approaches and mentoring programs, but gaps remain in evaluating their long-term impact and inclusivity. This study offers novelty by analyzing the program’s effectiveness across diverse demographic and educational backgrounds, providing evidence-based insights into its impact. Using a descriptive quantitative approach, data were collected through surveys involving 35 MSME participants from the “Rembuk UMKM” event. The Likert-scale questionnaire assessed regulatory understanding, program effectiveness, and its impact on license readiness. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, generating insights into participant perceptions. The findings show that the mentoring program is most effective among younger participants (aged 18–25 years), scoring 4.53, while maintaining high effectiveness scores across all age groups. Educational background analysis revealed the highest scores (5.00) from vocational high school (SMK) and master’s (S2) participants, highlighting the program’s inclusivity and adaptability. However, team competence scored relatively lower (4.26), indicating the need for continuous capacity building. The study concludes that BPOM’s mentoring programs significantly enhance MSME compliance and build long-term trust, with strategic recommendations for continuous training, technology-based module development, regional collaborations, and structured feedback mechanisms. These initiatives aim to strengthen program relevance and sustainability, supporting MSMEs in achieving regulatory compliance and contributing to national economic growth.

This study aims to analyze the relationship between Authentic Leadership, Organizational Support, and Job Demands on Employee Resilience, with Job Satisfaction serving as a mediating variable. The research focuses on employees of multinational companies in Semarang, utilizing a quantitative approach with regression analysis to evaluate direct, indirect, and interaction effects among the variables.The findings reveal that Authentic Leadership does not significantly influence Employee Resilience directly, though it demonstrates a positive trend, indicating its potential role in creating a supportive work environment for resilience development. Similarly, Organizational Support shows no significant direct effect on Employee Resilience, suggesting that individual perceptions of organizational support may be influenced by other unexamined factors. Job Demands, while having a positive relationship with Employee Resilience, are also not statistically significant, implying that well-managed work demands may positively contribute to resilience without imposing excessive stress.Job Satisfaction as a mediating variable does not significantly explain the relationship between independent variables and Employee Resilience. Additionally, the interaction effects between Job Satisfaction and the independent variables (Authentic Leadership, Organizational Support, and Job Demands) are not significant. These findings suggest that while Job Satisfaction remains essential, its mediating or moderating role in this context is limited.Nevertheless, the overall regression model, which incorporates all variables and interactions, is statistically significant (F = 16.369; p < 0.001), indicating that the combination of these factors collectively influences Employee Resilience. This highlights the importance of considering multiple organizational factors to enhance employee adaptability and productivity.
