This study examines the teacher's strategy in guiding the memorization of prayer prayers in early childhood at RA Muslimat NU Banin Banat Manyar through a qualitative case study approach. The main focus is the application of the practice (repetition) and habituation method, which was observed for 6-8 weeks in 35 children in group AB (aged 4-6 years), including participant observation, in-depth interviews with 4 teachers and 5 parents, and analysis of RPP documentation and murojaah videos. The results show that the practice method is applied rhythmically daily (3x / day, 10-15 minutes), starting from simple pronunciations such as iftitah and ruku' with 20-30 repetitions per chain cycle, resulting in an average increase in memorization from 42% to 91%, with variations in singing and movements reducing boredom by 27%. Meanwhile, integrated habituation through congregational prayer routines (Dhuha, Zuhur simulation, Ashar), independent ablution, and home supervision, achieved 89% of children's independence in becoming mini imams after 21 days consistently, supported by verbal rewards and gender row rotation. The discussion confirmed alignment with Piaget's theory (preoperational stage) and Vygotsky's (ZPD scaffolding), where drills build sensory memory schemes while habituation forms permanent religious character ala Abdullah Nasih Ulwan. Supporting factors include parental collaboration and a conducive NU environment, overcoming the obstacle of low concentration. Practical implications recommend replicating this strategy in similar RAs to optimize the golden age of Islamic early childhood, with memorization retention of 8-10 basic prayer prayers.

This study aims to determine the appropriate choice of Fiqh learning media for eighth-grade students at MTs Manbail Futuh Jenu. The background of this study is the low ability of students to remember Fiqh material due to the dominant use of lectures and textbooks. The method used in this study was descriptive qualitative, with data collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The research findings indicate that the majority of students prefer audio-visual, visual, and interactive learning media such as videos, animations, illustrative images, flashcards, and educational games. The use of these media facilitates students' understanding and retention of practical Fiqh material, such as ablution, tayammum, and prayer. Conversely, the use of lectures without engaging media quickly causes students to become bored and struggle to retain the material. This study concludes that selecting learning media that aligns with students' preferences can improve their memory and comprehension of Fiqh material.

The game industry in Indonesia has shown significant growth in recent years, along with the increasing public interest in high-quality video games. AAA (triple-A) games such as Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA VI) rely heavily on trailers as their primary promotional tool to introduce the game’s atmosphere, visual quality, and complex storytelling. GTA is widely recognized as a pioneer in realistic visuals, deep narratives, and social criticism delivered through iconic storytelling, making it highly appealing to potential consumers. This study aims to examine the influence of visual narrative in the GTA VI trailer on consumers’ purchase intention within the Indonesian GTA V Roleplay Facebook community. The theoretical framework is based on Marketing Communication Theory, Visual Narrative Theory with the dimensions of clarity, realism, dynamism, and continuity, as well as Purchase Intention Theory consisting of transactional, referential, preferential, and exploratory intentions. A quantitative approach was employed using a survey method, with questionnaires as the data collection instrument. The sample was selected using simple random sampling and calculated using the Slovin formula with a 5% margin of error, resulting in 92 respondents. The results indicate that the visual narrative variable achieved the highest mean score in the realism dimension (3.29), while purchase intention recorded the highest mean score in the transactional intention dimension (3.79). Simple linear regression analysis reveals that visual narrative has a significant influence on purchase intention, with a correlation coefficient (R) of 0.918. The coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.843 indicates that 84.3% of purchase intention is influenced by visual narrative, while the remaining 15.7% is affected by other factors beyond this study.

Currently, the skills needed to advance a tourist area are influenced by the availability of human resources who can speak English and understand local culture well. Unfortunately, improving English proficiency remains a challenge. Additionally, another issue appears as the Alpha generation is exposed to a great deal of English-language social media content; however, this does not appear to be directly correlated with an improvement in their English proficiency. It appears that the English Club instructors at SMA Fons Vitae 1 Jakarta were also aware of these two problems. Therefore, on September 11, 2025, an ABDIMAS activity entitled "Giving and Asking for Direction" training was held with the production of a short film. This activity was attended by 15 participants, 10 boys and 5 girls, a combination of students from grades 10 and 11. The results of the training showed that the pre-production process of making a short film provided a space for participants to recognize and explore Indonesian cultural heritage. Furthermore, the production process of making a short film made participants not afraid of speaking English. In the post-production process, participants can also edit parts of the video that are less than satisfactory because they can re-record if there are errors in pronunciation and grammar.

This study explores the development of digital and storynomic-based tourism in Kamasan Tourism Village, Klungkung Regency, Bali. Kamasan is historically known as the center of classical Balinese wayang painting and traditional metal crafts such as gold, silver, and brass. Using a qualitative descriptive method through observation, interviews, and document studies, this research identifies the village’s cultural potential and formulates a sustainable tourism development model. The SWOT analysis reveals that Kamasan’s main strengths lie in its rich cultural heritage, community participation, and diverse local crafts, while weaknesses include limited digital promotion, lack of facilities, and low involvement of younger generations.

A participatory approach was employed, actively involving MSME actors and students through stages of problem identification, program planning, training and hands-on digital marketing practices, and evaluation. The results demonstrated an improvement in participants’ understanding and skills in utilizing social media as a promotional tool, as reflected by the initiative to develop and publish promotional video content for local coffee products, including the flagship Versilia coffee variant. The use of visual content and storytelling facilitated the practical adoption of digital marketing strategies. Overall, this program contributed to shifting marketing behavior from conventional to digital approaches and strengthening the sustainable competitiveness of local coffee MSMEs.

This study examines the commodification of women’s bodies within environmental campaign content on digital media, focusing on a video produced by Pandawara Group that addresses textile waste issues. Although the campaign aims to raise ecological awareness, the visual emphasis on a female body particularly the exposure of a bra redirected public attention from environmental messages to sexualized interpretations in the comment section. This research aims to analyze how such meaning shifts occur through representation and audience interpretation. Using Sara Mills’ Critical Discourse Analysis, this study focuses on subject–object positioning and reader positioning in both visual and verbal elements of the content. The data consist of one campaign video and selected public comments on TikTok, analyzed qualitatively. The findings reveal that women are positioned as visual objects rather than active subjects within the discourse, while audiences are constructed as observers of the female body instead of interpreters of environmental issues. The recurring use of the phrase “content that unites the nation” further legitimizes sexualized readings and reinforces dominant gendered discourse. Importantly, the study finds that such interpretations are reproduced not only by male audiences but also by female users, indicating the internalization of dominant visual culture in digital spaces. This study contributes to gender and media studies by demonstrating that environmental campaigns are not free from gender bias and that visual representation plays a crucial role in shaping unintended meanings within social campaigns.

This study examines the role of social media, particularly Twitter, as a digital da’wah medium that is fast, interactive, and easily accessible to users. However, the extent to which the use of Twitter can enhance communication confidence among students still requires empirical validation. The focus of this research is to evaluate the effectiveness of Twitter use in influencing students’ communication abilities, especially in delivering da’wah messages. The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of Twitter usage on the communication confidence of students from the 2020 cohort. A quantitative approach was employed using a survey method. Data were collected through a structured, scale-based questionnaire, in accordance with the positivistic research paradigm that emphasizes objective and measurable hypothesis testing. The research population consisted of 62 students, from which 38 respondents were selected using proportionate stratified random sampling to ensure representation across all population strata. The findings reveal that the use of Twitter has a significant effect on the communication confidence of KPI IAI Al-Azis students from the 2020 cohort in delivering da’wah messages. Regression analysis results show a significance value of 0.050 < 0.05, with a Pearson correlation coefficient of 0.614, indicating a strong relationship. These results suggest that the more frequently students engage with Twitter, the greater their confidence in expressing and disseminating da’wah messages through various digital formats such as text, images, and videos. Twitter thus provides an expressive platform that fosters interaction, encourages participation, and strengthens students’ digital da’wah communication skills.

This research is motivated by the low level of discipline among elementary school students, characterized by non-compliance with rules, tardiness, and other negative behaviors, thus requiring the role of Pancasila and Citizenship Education (PPKn) as a strategic solution. This research aims to examine the role of PPKn learning in shaping the discipline of elementary school students through a library research approach. This research method uses a systematic and comprehensive library research method to assess the contribution of PPKn learning in forming the discipline of elementary school students (SD). The main focus is on national scientific sources in Indonesian and English languages from the period 2020-2025, with the aim of identifying patterns and strategies of PPKn learning towards improving student discipline in SD. The study results show that PPKn learning is effective in internalizing discipline values through habituation, teacher exemplification, continuous evaluation, and the use of innovative learning media such as educational videos. The involvement of teachers, schools, and parents is an important factor in supporting the formation of student discipline character, with strategies such as family collaboration and group supervision to overcome external challenges. This research provides a theoretical contribution as a basis for developing applicable PPKn learning strategies to form a disciplined generation in elementary schools. The implications of this study indicate that PPKn learning has a strategic role in shaping the discipline of elementary school students, thus requiring synergy between teachers, schools, and parents to optimize the internalization of character values in every learning activity.

Effective communication is a key competency for medical professionals, but traditional classroom-based methods in Indonesia face challenges such as limited practice, geographical barriers, and insufficient exposure to diverse patient scenarios. Mobile-assisted learning (MAL) offers a promising solution to enhance medical communication training outside traditional settings. This study investigates the effectiveness of MAL interventions in developing communication skills among Indonesian medical students and healthcare professionals. A mixed-methods approach was used, involving a quasi-experimental design with pre- and post-assessments of communication competence among 180 participants from three Indonesian medical schools. The MAL intervention included a mobile app with video demonstrations, interactive case scenarios, peer feedback, and microlearning modules. Quantitative data showed a significant improvement in communication competence (mean increase of 23.4%, p<0.001), with notable gains in information gathering (28%), relationship building (26%), and patient education (21%). The mobile platform saw high engagement (average of 4.3 sessions/week) and 87% module completion. Qualitative data revealed increased confidence in consultations, improved cultural sensitivity, and better time management. Challenges included inconsistent internet access, varying digital literacy, and resistance from traditional educators. MAL shows potential for improving medical communication in Indonesia, offering flexible, accessible training. Successful implementation requires addressing infrastructure issues, integrating MAL into existing curricula, and training faculty. This study adds to the growing evidence supporting technology-enhanced medical education in resource-limited settings.

Traditional arts in Indonesia face a growing threat not from physical displacement, but from algorithmic distortion. This study examines how social media algorithms shape and distort public perception of Indonesian traditional arts — specifically jaranan and barongan — through the lens of Van Dijck's (2013) popularity principle: the principle that content distribution is determined by interaction volume rather than cultural value. Employing qualitative thematic content analysis, this study analyzes comments on five viral social media videos sourced from YouTube and TikTok, each depicting riots or tension at traditional art performances. Findings demonstrate that the popularity principle operates consistently and cumulatively across all five samples: algorithmically provocative titles, emotional polarization in comment sections, and micro-behavioral signals such as watch duration and replay collectively function as interaction signals that drive the platform to distribute riot content far more widely than culturally substantive footage. The consequences extend beyond perception: event organizers suffer long-term reputational and economic damage, while collective stereotypes — associating jaranan with violence and disorder — become sufficiently entrenched to surface spontaneously in unrelated contexts. A comparative analysis of a Kangen Band concert video reveals that these stereotypes have already achieved the status of cultural reference points. This study argues that strategic resistance is possible: the same algorithmic logic that amplifies negative content can be deployed to circulate culturally rich content, provided that artists, communities, and government commit to producing content designed to generate high-quality interaction. The challenge is to transform social media from a distorting mirror into an instrument of cultural preservation.

Podcasts as digital communication media have continued to grow and have become an important platform for delivering ideas, opinions, and public education. This study aims to analyze locutionary, illocutionary, and perlocutionary speech acts in the YouTube content Podcast Warung Kopi (PWK) entitled “Mental Dr. Tirta Turun, Gara-Gara Video Marah-Marah Dilihat dan Ditiru Sama Anaknya.” This research employs a descriptive qualitative method using listening and note-taking techniques to examine the utterances produced by the host and the guest speaker. The data consist of transcribed conversations that are classified based on Austin’s speech act theory. The findings reveal 17 speech act data, consisting of 4 locutionary acts, 9 illocutionary acts including assertive, directive, expressive, and commissive types, and 4 perlocutionary acts. These results indicate that podcasts function not only as entertainment and information media but also as effective tools in influencing listeners’ attitudes, raising awareness, and shaping behavioral responses, particularly in relation to health and social issues.

Syphilis is one of the reproductive health problems that remains a challenge in Indonesia, with a trend of increasing cases, while the level of adolescent knowledge about this disease is still low. Educational efforts are needed to improve adolescent understanding, one of which is through video media which is considered more interesting because it combines visual and audio elements. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of video as an educational medium in improving adolescent knowledge about syphilis at SMKS Al Hikmah 2 Sirampog, Brebes Regency. This type of research is a pre-experimental study with a one group pretest-posttest design. The study sample consisted of 47 students selected using a purposive sampling technique. The research instrument was a syphilis knowledge questionnaire administered before and after the educational video intervention. Data analysis used the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test and N-Gain calculation. The study showed that Results Before the intervention, the level of knowledge of respondents was in the good category for 24 students (51.1%), sufficient for 11 students (25.5%), and poor for 12 students (23.4%). After being given the educational video intervention, there was a significant increase with all respondents (100%) being in the good category. The Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test showed a significant difference between pretest and posttest scores (p-value = 0.000). N-Gain analysis categorized the increase in knowledge as high. The study concluded that video media has proven effective as an educational tool in increasing adolescent knowledge about syphilis, making it a viable alternative learning medium in reproductive health programs.

This study aims to analyze the implementation of video animation-based flipped classroom learning model in increasing students' learning interest in science subjects with material on the structure and function of living organisms in class 8D at SMPN 1 Sanrobone. The low interest in learning science among students is a major problem that needs to be addressed through more attractive and interactive learning innovations. The video animation-based flipped classroom model was chosen because it can optimize classroom learning time for more meaningful activities, while basic concept understanding is done independently through engaging animated videos. This study uses a survey method with a descriptive quantitative approach. The research subjects were  students of class 8D SMPN 1 Sanrobone in the even semester of the 2024/2025 academic year. Research instruments used learning interest questionnaires, observations, and documentation. The results showed that the implementation of video animation-based flipped classroom model was able to increase students' learning interest with high categories in aspects of attention, interest, involvement, and learning satisfaction. Animated videos presented before face-to-face learning provide clear visualizations of the structure and function of living organisms, making students more prepared and enthusiastic to participate in discussions and practical activities in class. This learning model also encourages student learning independence and increases active interaction in learning. This study recommends the implementation of video animation-based flipped classroom as an alternative effective and innovative science learning strategy to increase students' learning interest.
