This paper examines civil servants' (ASN) understanding of the Core Values of Ethical Civil Service (ASN BerAKHLAK), which represent fundamental principles that civil servants must uphold in performing their duties as public servants. However, some civil servants still lack full comprehension and proper implementation of these values.The study aims to investigate and assess the level of civil servants' understanding regarding these core values within the Audit Board of the Republic of Indonesia (BPK RI), Lampung Provincial Office. Employing a quantitative descriptive method, the research reveals that 94% of BPK's Lampung Office civil servants demonstrate general awareness of the ASN BerAKHLAK values. Nevertheless, their understanding of theoretical aspects and practical implementation requires further improvement.

Instilling the value of unity from an early age is essential in shaping a young generation with tolerance and the ability to live harmoniously in diversity. However, the teaching of Pancasila in elementary schools is still largely carried out through conventional approaches that inadequately address students’ affective development. Instruction often remains teacher-centered and lacks interaction, making it difficult for students to internalize national values in their daily lives. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of implementing the Think Pair Share (TPS) model in enhancing students’ understanding of the value of unity in sixth-grade Pancasila education. The research employed a qualitative approach using a literature review method. Data were collected from scholarly journals, books, and relevant studies published between 2020 and 2025. The data were analyzed using content analysis techniques to explore the patterns of TPS implementation and its impact on students’ comprehension of unity. The findings reveal that the TPS model fosters a collaborative, inclusive, and participatory learning environment, enabling students to grasp and internalize the value of unity more deeply. The stages of TPS—thinking, pairing, and sharing—provide students with opportunities to express opinions, listen to others' perspectives, and reach shared understanding. In addition to improving academic outcomes, this model also significantly contributes to the development of character and social attitudes. In conclusion, the TPS model is an effective and relevant teaching strategy for instilling Pancasila values, particularly unity, within the context of 21st-century learning and the Merdeka Curriculum, which emphasizes active, contextual, and character-based education.

Entrepreneurship training is an important strategy in the economic empowerment of village communities, especially for the youth of Karang Taruna and PKK members who have a strategic role in local development. In Kaladawa Village, local potentials such as agricultural products, processed food, and handicrafts actually have a fairly high economic value. However, this potential has not been utilized optimally due to low knowledge, skills, and access to information and technology that supports entrepreneurship. Lack of understanding of business planning, digital marketing, and financial management is often the main obstacle that hinders village communities from starting and developing businesses independently. This community service activity aims to increase the capacity and economic independence of the residents of Kaladawa Village through practice-based entrepreneurship training. The training is comprehensively arranged, combining interactive lecture methods, group discussions, case studies, and simple business simulations so that participants are able to understand in theory and practice. The training material includes basic concepts of entrepreneurship, identification and analysis of local potential-based business opportunities, preparation of business plans, digital marketing strategies using social media, and financial management of micro businesses. Not only technical skills, this training also equips participants with soft skills such as business communication skills, teamwork, and creative and innovative thinking. The results of the activity showed a significant increase in participants' understanding of the basic principles of entrepreneurship and readiness to start a business independently. The pre-test and post-test evaluations showed a spike in comprehension scores, while the business plan products developed by participants showed creativity and the use of local potential that had not been previously worked on. Some participants have even formed community-based small business groups. This training also succeeded in forming an adaptive and innovative entrepreneurial mindset and building a social network that supports business collaboration.

Emesis gravidarum (EG) is a common condition experienced by pregnant women, characterized by nausea and vomiting that can negatively impact the health of both the mother and the fetus. Although often considered a normal part of pregnancy, EG can significantly impact a mother's quality of life. Age factors are thought to have an effect on the level of maternal knowledge about this condition, with older mothers tending to have a better understanding than younger mothers. This study used a quantitative design with a cross-sectional approach. A sample of 30 pregnant women in the first trimester was taken using the purposive sampling technique. Data were collected using questionnaires and analyzed using Pearson correlation tests. 60% of respondents were multigravida, and 40% of respondents (100%) were between the ages of 20 and 35. Seventy percent of people throw up more than three times a day. With an average score of 73.40 (on a scale of 50 to 90), Mother's level of knowledge showed variances in comprehension. The normality test revealed that the knowledge and age data were normally distributed. Since there was no discernible association between the mother's age and her degree of knowledge (r = 0.139, p = 0.465) according to the Pearson correlation test, other variables like education and information availability might be more important factors influencing knowledge. The age of the first-trimester pregnant women and their level of EG knowledge did not significantly correlate. Consequently, comprehensive health education is essential to enhance pregnant women's comprehension of EG, irrespective of age considerations.

This study examined the effectiveness of applying the Logan Avenue Problem Solving (LAPS-Heuristic) learning model on mathematics learning outcomes among Class VII students at Wusto Imam An-Nasai Gowa using a one-group pretest–posttest design. The population consisted of all seventh-grade students enrolled in the even semester of the 2024/2025 academic year. A learning outcome test was employed as the primary research instrument to measure students’ performance before and after the implementation of the learning model.

God involves humans by giving missionary responsibility to His people to be involved in God's work of salvation. Every believer has a missionary task. Mission is centered and comes from God who is the core of His eternal plan for the salvation of humans from all His creations. Due to the lack of knowledge and methods about biblical mission teaching in the church and Christian institutions, the problems that arise in the form of mission and evangelism services are not a priority in the church, even congregations that have not responded or have not dared to carry out mission and evangelism services so that the church lacks missionaries. In this study, the method used is qualitative descriptive with an approach to an understanding and comprehension of the importance of biblical mission and evangelism and true and in-depth knowledge of the basics of mission and evangelism theology. Thus, every believer is called and responsible to carry out mission and evangelism in accordance with the great commission of the Lord Jesus Christ.
