The development of information and communication technology has changed the landscape of education as a whole, including in the context of Christian Religious Education (PAK). This article aims to review the challenges, negative impacts, new opportunities and use of technology in PAK in the digital era. In dealing with this problem, the research method used involves qualitative analysis with data synthesis from various related studies. The research results show that the integration of technology in PAK has the potential to improve learning content, increase student engagement, and create a more interactive learning experience. However, it is important to note that there are negative impacts of the digital era, such as the risk of dependence on technology, which also need to be considered in the context of religious learning. However, there are new opportunities offered by technological developments and how to use them at PAK. This includes the use of various methods and platforms that support interactive and creative learning, which can help increase students' understanding of Christianity in the digital era. Thus, the use of technology in PAK is not only about exploiting the advantages of technology to improve teaching, but also about understanding and overcoming the challenges and negative impacts that may arise. Only with a balanced approach between the use of technology and an understanding of its specific context, can Christian religious education in the digital era become more effective and relevant for the younger generation.

This research aims to investigate the social action conversion process experienced by former drug addicts in Sijambi Village, Tanjung Balai. The case study method was used with a qualitative approach, involving in-depth interviews with a number of former drug addicts. The theory used in this research uses the theory of social action proposed by Max Weber which refers to the change or transformation of a social action from one form to another. The action conversion intended by this theory explains that social action involves a series of activities and interactions carried out by individuals or groups in society with the intention of achieving certain changes or influences. It includes active involvement in activities that have the potential to influence social norms, values, or structures. The research results show that the social action conversion process of former drug addicts in Sijambi Village involves several stages, starting from realizing there is a problem, having the motivation to change, to being involved in positive activities.

The primary problem for multi-robot displacement and motion phase solving requires that the robots prevent themselves from colliding with each other as well as stationary obstacles. In certain situations, robot conflict is unavoidable if one robot views its neighbors as immovable obstacles. Hence, this paper proposes a new NURBs (Non-Uniform Rational B-spline) based algorithm for multi-robot path planning in a crowded environment. First, the proposed technique finds each robot's free, smooth, optimal path while avoiding collision with the existing obstacles. Secondly, the prospect of possible collision between the preplanned trajectories will be computed to allow the robots to navigate in the same workspace and coordinate between them. Then, each robot's time to arrive at potential collision sites is computed based on its speed. As a result, the robots involved in the collision must choose whether to use the robot priority technique to prevent the collision. Simulation results under different scenarios and comparisons with previous works are provided to validate the work. The obtained results prove that the proposed approach is accurate (as the robot's instantaneous speed is taken into consideration), fast (as there is no need to broadcast the robots’ positions), the robots’ paths are optimal and smooth (to avoid jerk movements), and the approach ensures that the robots will not be trapped by local minima problem.

This study aims to analyse the economic behaviour in online shopping of generation Z Islam in Mamuju District from the perspective of Islamic consumption behaviour. The research method used is qualitative with a phenomenological approach. Data was collected through interviews with generation Z Muslim informants from five groups/communities in Mamuju Sub-district to explore their experiences in online shopping in e-commerce and how it is analysed from an Islamic perspective.
