Environmental damage caused by human activities has become an increasingly pressing global issue. Poetry as a literary work has the power to represent ecological problems symbolically and critically. This study aims to describe the representation of the impact of the environmental crisis in Taufiq Ismail's poems, namely "Menengajah Ke Atas, Merenungi Ozone yang Tak terlihat" and "Membaca Tanda-Tanda." The analysis is based on Greg Garrard's ecocritical study. This study uses a qualitative method with content analysis techniques. There are two stages of analysis, namely the literal and symbolic meaning of the poems, then an ecocritical interpretation is carried out based on Garrard's categories which include pollution, wilderness, apocalypse, dwelling, animals, and earth. The results of the study indicate that both poems represent the impact of the environmental crisis through health problems due to pollution and radiation, damage to water and forest ecosystems, climate change, threats to human living space, and the decline in biodiversity. The research findings also show that the most dominant categories are pollution and apocalypse, which confirms that the environmental crisis in Taufiq Ismail's poems is the result of human behavior that ignores nature. Thus, Taufiq Ismail's poems not only function as aesthetic works, but also as cultural criticism and moral warnings for humanity.

This community service activity aims to improve the competency of Regional Apparatus Work Unit (SKPD) personnel in preparing monthly, quarterly, and semi-annual financial statements in accordance with Government Accounting Standards (SAP). This activity uses a participatory approach through Focus Group Discussions (FGD) involving 95 participants consisting of Financial Administration Officers and expenditure treasurers from various SKPDs in the Semarang City Government. The evaluation indicators included participant participation, improvement of understanding, identification of reporting problems, and formulation of follow-up actions. The finding, based on the results of the post-test, an average of 80% of participants showed improvement, particularly in account classification, transaction recording, and periodic report preparation. The FGD identified four major issues: limited mastery of financial information systems, data input errors, insufficient competent human resources, and weak inter-unit coordination causing delays in report submission. As post-FGD outcomes, participants agreed on the need for continuous technical training, standardized operating procedures, optimization of information system integration, and the establishment of a reporting coordination forum. These results provide evidence that FGD was effective not only in evaluating participants’ competencies but also in generating practical solutions to enhance transparent and accountable regional financial governance.

This community service program aimed to improve teachers’ understanding and practical skills in preparing Classroom Action Research (CAR) proposals among senior high school teachers in Semarang City, Indonesia. Classroom Action Research is an essential component of teacher professional development, enabling educators to systematically identify classroom problems, implement pedagogical interventions, and evaluate learning improvement strategies. However, many teachers encounter difficulties in translating classroom challenges into structured research proposals. The program involved 22 teachers from public and private senior high schools in Semarang City and was implemented using a participatory and experiential learning approach integrating theoretical sessions, guided discussion, proposal-writing workshops, and direct mentoring. Training materials covered classroom problem identification, research cycles, proposal structure, formulation of objectives, intervention design, and indicators of success. Program effectiveness was evaluated through direct assessment of participants’ practical outputs. The success indicator was defined as a minimum of 90% of participants being able to prepare an initial classroom action research proposal draft correctly according to the provided guidelines. The results showed that the program successfully achieved its target, with 90.9% of participants able to produce an initial classroom action research proposal draft containing essential proposal components. Participants also demonstrated improved confidence and understanding regarding classroom-based research implementation. This program contributes a practical professional development model integrating research literacy enhancement and hands-on proposal writing practice to strengthen teachers’ reflective teaching and evidence-based instructional improvement capacity.

This research is motivated by the existence of legal pluralism in marriage regulations in Indonesia before the enactment of Law Number 1 of 1974 concerning Marriage. During that period, marriage provisions were influenced by various legal systems, namely customary law, Islamic law, and colonial laws such as the Burgerlijk Wetboek, whose application was based on population classification. This condition gave rise to various problems, including legal uncertainty, differing standards for marriage validity, and weak protection of the rights of women and children. Based on these problems, this study aims to examine the development of marriage law in Indonesia, both before and after the enactment of the Marriage Law, and to assess the extent to which these regulations have been able to achieve legal unification and certainty within the national legal system. The method used is qualitative-normative research with a literature study approach through analysis of relevant laws and regulations, historical documents, and scientific literature. The results indicate that before 1974, the marriage legal system was complex and unintegrated, necessitating a comprehensive codification. The process of drafting this law was lengthy and marked by ideological debate and religious considerations. However, an agreement was ultimately reached that accommodated both religious values ​​and state interests. Subsequent developments, including amendments through Law Number 16 of 2019, confirm that marriage law in Indonesia is dynamic in responding to demands for justice, human rights, and gender equality.

This study aims to analyze the legal protection of women's inheritance rights from the perspective of Indonesian civil law. The problems studied focused on the position of women as heirs and the extent to which the legal system provides guarantees of justice and equality. The research method used is normative juridical with a legislative and conceptual approach. Data was obtained through a literature study of legal regulations, doctrines, and court decisions relevant to inheritance issues. The results of the study show that normatively, civil law provides equal recognition of women's inheritance rights, especially in the Civil Code. However, in practice, there are still obstacles influenced by patriarchal culture and customary law that tend to place women in subordinate positions. This condition causes women to often experience difficulties in claiming or obtaining the proper share of inheritance. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen regulations, harmonize national laws with the value of gender equality, and increase public legal awareness to ensure effective and fair protection for women in obtaining their inheritance rights.

Background:Reproductive health education plays a crucial role, particularly for adolescents with disabilities, in maintaining their reproductive health. One effort to reduce menstrual-related problems is by developing hygienic behaviors. Menstrual personal hygiene refers to individual cleanliness practices aimed at maintaining, preserving, and improving personal hygiene and health to achieve physical and psychological well-being through the implementation of hygienic actions during menstruation. Objective; This study aimed to identify factors associated with menstrual personal hygiene behavior among adolescents with disabilities as part of long-term care. Methods:This study employed a correlational analytic design with a cross-sectional approach. The sample consisted of 36 respondents, selected using a total sampling technique. Data were collected using a questionnaire. Data analysis was conducted using bivariate analysis with the Chi-square test. Results: The results showed that variables significantly associated with respondents’ menstrual personal hygiene behavior were knowledge (p-value = 0.018), family support (p-value = 0.003), and adequacy of facilities and infrastructure (p-value = 0.003). Meanwhile, self-motivation was not significantly associated with menstrual personal hygiene behavior (p-value = 0.124). Conclusion: Therefore, nurses and healthcare providers are encouraged to enhance reproductive health education, involve families, and promote the provision of disability-friendly facilities to support long-term care for adolescents with disabilities.

Counseling etymologically derives from the noun counsel, which originates from the Latin consilium, rooted in consilere, meaning “to consult,” or to seek the views and advice of others as guidance for consideration and decision-making. As a verb, to counsel or counseling refers to the act of providing advice, guidance, warnings, encouragement, and instruction aimed at fostering self-surrender in addressing problems and managing negative behaviors among students. Educational guidance and counseling aim to strengthen Christian students to live victoriously in the Lord Jesus Christ by bringing them to an understanding of the light of God’s Word and the acceptance of themselves as God’s grace. This Classroom Action Research was conducted to address and resolve the problems of Christian students based on the research formulation, particularly through the application of intellectual, moral, and social approaches as strategic steps to enhance educational counseling services. The study employed a qualitative approach, with data collected through in-depth interviews and field notes. Data analysis was carried out by categorizing findings to generate emerging themes. In-depth interviews and focus group discussions were conducted with three teacher participants and two student participants. The findings revealed that several students required special attention due to tendencies toward delinquent behavior, while one case indicated a student’s involvement in narcotics. These findings demonstrate that student-related issues require special intervention efforts to improve their spiritual and mental well-being, leading them to a deeper knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ as their personal Savior. The ultimate goal is the salvation of students’ souls and the glorification of the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.

This study is motivated by the importance of psychological readiness of students in the Guidance and Counseling Study Program at Universitas Jambi in facing various academic and non-academic demands. Problems commonly experienced by students include decreased motivation, feelings of hopelessness, and the risk of dropping out due to the inability to cope with academic pressures. Grit is a combination of perseverance and consistency of interest in achieving long-term goals. Meanwhile, resilience is the ability of individuals to bounce back from difficulties and adapt positively to pressure. This study is limited to two main variables, namely grit and resilience among active students of the Guidance and Counseling Study Program at Universitas Jambi. The indicators of grit include consistency of interest and perseverance of effort. The indicators of resilience include emotional regulation, impulse control, optimism, causal analysis, empathy, self-efficacy, and reaching out. The purpose of this study is to determine the level of grit, the level of resilience, and the relationship between grit and resilience among active students of the Guidance and Counseling Study Program at Universitas Jambi. This study uses a quantitative correlational research design. The sampling technique used is simple random sampling with a total sample of 211 respondents. The instrument used in this study is a Likert scale.The results show that the level of grit is in the high category with a percentage of 76%. The level of resilience is also in the high category with a percentage of 76%. The results of hypothesis testing using Spearman’s Rho correlation technique show a correlation coefficient value of r = 0.439 with a significance value of 0.000 < 0.05. This indicates a significant positive relationship between grit and resilience, which falls into the moderate correlation category

The low coverage of exclusive breastfeeding is still a public health challenge because it has a direct impact on infant health. Factors that cause low coverage of breastfeeding include problems in the breastfeeding process, economic conditions, environmental support, and socio-cultural aspects. Milk production is influenced by the hormone prolactin, while milk production is influenced by the hormone oxytocin. One of the interventions that has been proven to help with breast milk production is oxytocin massage. Based on this, this community service activity was carried out as an effort to increase breast milk production in breastfeeding mothers. The method of the activity is in the form of health counseling to pregnant women in the third trimester with educational media in the form of presentation materials. The activity was complemented by discussions, questions and answers, and demonstrations of the right oxytocin massage techniques to strengthen participants' understanding. The implementation of the activity went well and received enthusiasm from the participants. The results of the activity showed an increase in pregnant women's knowledge about the importance of exclusive breastfeeding and skills in performing oxytocin massage. Thus, this activity is expected to support the increase in exclusive breastfeeding coverage through the empowerment of pregnant and lactating women, as well as a promotive-preventive strategy in maintaining the health of babies in a sustainable manner.

This community service activity aims to enhance the understanding of local business actors in Kanekes Village (Baduy Luar) regarding the implementation of a sales information system to support the management and marketing of traditional handicraft products.

The Village Fund Policy is a state instrument in realizing village-based national development as mandated by Law Number 6 of 2014 concerning Villages. The Village Fund was designed as a form of state affirmation for villages that have experienced development inequality for years. However, in practice, the policy of cutting or reducing the allocation of the Village Fund resulting from changes in national fiscal policy, budget refocusing, and state economic pressures has created serious problems for the direction of the legal politics of village development. This study aims to analyze the legal politics of cutting the Village Fund and its implications for the principle of social justice as contained in the fifth principle of Pancasila and Article 33 of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia. The study uses a normative juridical method with a legislative approach, a conceptual approach, and a philosophical approach. The sources of legal materials consist of primary legal materials in the form of laws and regulations, secondary legal materials in the form of books, journals, and scientific articles, and tertiary legal materials in the form of legal dictionaries and encyclopedias. The results of the study indicate that the cutting of the Village Fund in legal politics indicates a shift in the state's orientation from the welfare state concept to a more centralized and pragmatic fiscal approach. This policy has hampered village development, increased social inequality, weakened village community empowerment, and potentially violated the principle of distributive justice. Therefore, fiscal policy regarding Village Funds should maintain villages as the primary subjects of national development by strengthening the principles of fiscal decentralization and social justice. Keywords: Legal Politics, Village Funds, Social Justice, Welfare State, Fiscal Decentralization..

This study aims to examine Deuteronomy 22:13-30 using a hermeneutic approach and relate it to the current level of awareness of early marriage among Christian congregations. The method used was a qualitative literature study, with the Bible as the primary source, supplemented by various related theological literature. The results indicate that this section of the text contains important theological values, such as holiness, justice, responsibility, and respect for human dignity, especially women, in the context of marriage. Although this text originates from the patriarchal culture of ancient Israel, its principles remain relevant in today's context. Regarding the phenomenon of early marriage, it was found that this practice often occurs without adequate preparation, whether emotional, spiritual, or economic, and thus risks causing various problems in the household. Therefore, the church has a responsibility to raise congregational awareness through faith formation, premarital education, and contextual pastoral care. This study confirms that marriage is a life calling that requires maturity and serious commitment, not simply a solution to social problems.

This study discusses the dialogue between Christian faith and Karl Marx’s atheism as well as its relevance to the lives of contemporary Christians. The rise of atheism in modern society is closely related to secularization, scientific progress, social inequality, and criticism of religious institutions that are considered unable to answer humanitarian problems. Karl Marx viewed religion as an ideological instrument that often legitimized oppression and alienated humans from their true existence. Through his famous statement that “religion is the opium of the people,” Marx criticized forms of religiosity that merely comfort human suffering without striving for social liberation. This research employs a qualitative method with a literature review approach by examining various philosophical, theological, and social sources related to Marx’s atheism and the Catholic Church’s teachings. The findings reveal that Marx’s criticism of religion should not merely be understood as a rejection of God, but also as a moral challenge for the Church to continuously renew itself in carrying out its mission amid social realities. In response, the Catholic Church, especially through the teachings of the Second Vatican Council, views atheism not only as a doctrinal challenge but also as an opportunity for dialogue and self-reflection. The study concludes that authentic Christian faith is not an escape from worldly realities but a spiritual force that encourages believers to uphold justice, solidarity, and human dignity. Therefore, Marx’s criticism can become a reflective instrument for Christians to embody a more contextual, humanistic, and socially engaged faith in the modern world.

Religious culture that is still quite strong in the community is an important capital in the implementation of youth development programs. However, the influence of social media, promiscuity, and the lack of religious activities that are attractive to the younger generation have led to a decrease in adolescents' interest in religious activities in mosques. Therefore, this research aims to form the character of discipline, responsibility, and cooperation in the group through Islamic hadrah art activities. This study uses the Asset Based Community Development (ABCD) method, which is a community empowerment approach that focuses on the strengths and potentials possessed by the community, not on existing shortcomings or problems. In this approach, the community is invited to identify various assets they have, such as human resources, local institutions, cultural values, and social networks that can be used to overcome the problems they face. The results of the study showed that the adolescent participants experienced improved skills in playing hadrah and understanding of religious values. In addition, there has been a change in behavior towards being more disciplined, active, and caring for religious activities in the mosque environment.

Teachers are professional personnel who play an important role in determining the quality of education; however, they still face various issues such as low wages, a shortage of teaching staff, and an increasing number of cases in which teachers encounter legal problems while performing their duties. This condition indicates the importance of regulation and legal protection, particularly for honorary teachers who, to date, still lack clarity regarding their employment status. This study aims to identify the forms of legal protection guarantees as well as the regulatory framework concerning legal protection for honorary teachers in public schools in Semarang City. The method used is empirical juridical research to identify the gap between normative provisions and their implementation in practice. The results show that legal protection for honorary teachers is manifested through employment agreements as the basis of legal relations; however, its implementation is not yet optimal, as there are still teachers who do not have employment agreements and whose rights have not been fully fulfilled. The implications of this study emphasize the need to strengthen policies and coordination among stakeholders to ensure legal certainty and the welfare of honorary teachers.

Financial losses at several State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs) in Indonesia indicate significant problems in the operational management and governance of state assets. This situation not only impacts SOE business performance but also directly impacts state financial management, including transparency, accountability, and efficient budget utilization. This study aims to analyze the underlying causes of financial losses at SOEs and evaluate their impact on public financial governance in Indonesia. The method used is a literature review examining regulations, SOE financial reports, previous research, government oversight reports, and relevant academic studies. The results indicate that SOE losses generally occur due to weak internal management, decision-making that is not based on data, inefficient costs, poor governance, and inadequate government oversight. The impact on public financial governance can be seen in the increasing burden on state finances and declining public trust in the management of state assets. This study recommends strengthening the implementation of Good Corporate Governance (GCG), increasing transparency and accountability in reporting, utilizing digital technology for oversight, and comprehensive evaluation of the performance of directors and commissioners to support improvements in SOE governance and public finances.

One of the most common problems faced by students is academic procrastination. This issue often leads to increased stress, poor academic performance, and difficulties in self-control. This study aims to examine academic procrastination behavior and evaluate the Solution Focused Brief Counseling (SFBC) approach as an alternative intervention. The research was conducted using a qualitative approach in the form of a literature study. Data were obtained from various relevant scientific sources, including national and international journals, reference books, and previous research findings published within the last ten years. The data were analyzed using a content analysis technique by organizing the information into several main themes, including the factors causing academic procrastination, its impact on students, and the effectiveness of SFBC implementation. The findings indicate that academic procrastination is influenced by internal factors, such as low learning motivation, weak self-control, and poor time management skills. External factors also include an unconducive learning environment and a lack of social support. In addition, the results show that the SFBC technique helps students reduce task-delay behavior by setting clear goals, strengthening self-potential, and developing realistic solution plans. Therefore, SFBC can be considered a relevant and effective approach in guidance and counseling services to address academic procrastination.

This study was conducted to evaluate the numeracy skills of second-grade students in mathematics lessons involving addition and subtraction of currency. This research is classified as descriptive qualitative. Data collection methods included observation, document collection, and the use of student worksheets. The data analysis employed the Miles and Huberman technique. The data were collected in the form of student worksheets in mathematics lessons in second-grade students at Urek-Urek 2 Elementary School, Malang Regency, with 12 students participating.
