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.

This study examines the application of double integrals in calculating the volume of cylindrical concrete piles as a basis for estimating material requirements in building foundation structures. The volume calculation was carried out using a double-integral approach in polar coordinates for three pile segments with lengths of 4 m, 3.9 m, and 4 m, each having a diameter of 60 cm. The results were then validated using the standard geometric formula to ensure consistency and mathematical reliability. The obtained concrete volume was subsequently used to estimate material needs based on a 1:1.5:3 mix proportion consisting of cement, sand, and gravel. The findings indicate that double integrals can be effectively applied to generate accurate estimations of both volume and material requirements, supporting logistical planning in construction. This approach also highlights the strong connection between mathematical concepts—particularly multivariable calculus—and practical applications in civil engineering. Furthermore, the study emphasizes that double integrals may serve as a relevant alternative when structural modeling requires deeper analytical exploration or validation beyond conventional geometry. Therefore, the implementation of double integrals not only reinforces theoretical understanding but also enhances precision in evaluating structural components within building foundation planning.

This study aims to enhance elementary school students’ motivation to learn English and to identify the factors contributing to their low motivation. The research is grounded in the need to prepare students for the global era, in which English proficiency is an essential skill from an early age. The study employs a Classroom Action Research (CAR) method using the Kemmis and McTaggart model, consisting of planning, action, observation, and reflection stages. Data were collected through observations, learning outcome evaluations, and interviews with English teachers. The findings reveal that students’ low motivation is influenced by perceptions that English is difficult, the lack of engaging teaching methods, limited learning facilities, and students’ weak willingness to learn. The implemented actions—such as using songs, educational games, teaching aids, role-play activities, and interactive communication—significantly increased students’ activeness and motivation. Moreover, the study emphasizes the importance of introducing English at the elementary level, as ages 6–13 represent a critical period for language development. With appropriate external motivation and strong teacher support, English learning becomes more effective, enjoyable, and meaningful. This study recommends that English instruction continue to be implemented in elementary schools through creative teaching methods and sufficient learning facilities

This study aims to develop an interactive digital learning media based on Wordwall, named TANGKAS (Tantangan Asyik Ngulik Pecahan Kelas Empat Seru), as a practice tool for addition and subtraction of fractions in fourth-grade elementary students. The development process employed the ADDIE model, which includes the Analyze, Design, Develop, Implement, and Evaluate stages. The research subjects consisted of 29 fourth-grade students at SDN Ngemplak I Baureno. The needs analysis revealed that learning activities were still dominated by conventional methods with limited use of digital media, resulting in low student engagement. To address this issue, TANGKAS was developed using a maze chase game design to enhance motivation and support engaging fraction practice. The validation results indicated a material validity score of 94% (highly valid) and a media validity score of 80% (valid). The practicality aspect obtained 81.8% from students, both categorized as highly practical. The effectiveness test showed an improvement in learning outcomes with N-Gain scores of 0.6 for fraction addition and 0.54 for fraction subtraction, both classified as moderate. Therefore, TANGKAS is proven to be feasible, practical, and effective as an interactive game-based learning media to support students’ understanding of mathematics in elementary school.

This community service activity aimed to strengthen the capacity of Percik staff and Sobat Anak facilitators through basic sign language training in collaboration with the Sahabat Tuli Salatiga community. Inclusive multicultural education requires educators and facilitators to be able to engage all children, including those with hearing disabilities. The Sobat Anak Program initiated by Percik Salatiga promotes interfaith and multicultural education for children from diverse backgrounds; however communication barriers remain due to facilitators’ limited knowledge of sign language. The community service employed a needs assessment, participatory training sessions, and evaluation using pre-test and post-test analyzed through N-Gain scores. The results show an N-Gain value of 0.79, categorized as high, with an effectiveness level of 78.89%. These findings indicate that basic sign language training is effective in improving participants’ understanding in supporting more inclusive multicultural educational practices. This activity highlights the importance of collaboration between higher educations, civil society organizations and disability communities in advancing the No One Left Behind principle within inclusive education initiatives.

The pluralistic development of Indonesian national law creates a dynamic relationship between national civil law and customary law, including in the context of resolving inheritance disputes in Chinese families who adhere to patrilineal traditions. Supreme Court Decision No. 1204 K/Pdt/2024 shows that there is a tension between legal certainty under the Civil Code and substantive justice originating from living law. This research aims to analyze the judge's interpretation of family documents as a basis for inheritance rejection, inheritance sharing mechanisms that ignore Chinese customary norms, and their implications for legal pluralism in Indonesia. The method used is normative juridical with a case study approach and a descriptive-analytical legislative approach, using literature studies of primary, secondary and tertiary legal materials. The results showed that the ruling applied neither the Civil Code nor the principle of Chinese customary inheritance consistently. The family declaration on which the judge relied was not actually a refusal of inheritance, but an internal agreement granting authority to the testator. Moreover, the distribution of inheritance carried out is not in accordance with the principle of patrilineal custom which places the eldest son as the recipient of the largest share. This finding shows the weak application of legal pluralism (weak legal pluralism) and reveals the gap between das sollen and das sein, so it is necessary to strengthen the role of judges in exploring the traditional values that live in society.

Managing Regional Public Service Agency (Badan Layanan Umum Daerah/BLUD) hospitals requires planning and budgeting processes that are accountable, measurable, and aligned with service performance. In practice, BLUD planning is still constrained by fragmented applications (hospital information system/SIMRS, finance, human resources, e-office, and procurement), duplicate data entry, approval delays, and limited monitoring of process compliance. This study aims to analyze requirements and design a web-based BLUD planning information system using an Enterprise Application Integration (EAI) approach through middleware to improve cross-system interoperability, data consistency, and the timeliness of executive reporting. The study adopts the Design Science Research (DSR) framework, comprising problem identification, definition of solution objectives, artifact design and development, demonstration, evaluation, and communication/report writing. The proposed system includes a unit-based budget proposal module and item management, a role-based approval workflow (RBAC) with SLA tracking, a budget ceiling (pagu) master to benchmark proposals, audit trails and report exports, and an executive dashboard integrating budget perspectives, service indicators (e.g., bed occupancy rate/BOR and patient visits), and process compliance. It also provides an integration design via middleware (ESB/message broker) supported by a canonical data model (CDM) and traceable logging (trace_id/correlation_id). Evaluation using black-box testing and API contract testing indicates that the main planning workflow operates as intended and the integration interfaces are consistently defined, providing a foundation for staged implementation and further performance evaluation.

The event was successful, and everyone involved was excited about this service project.

Land cover change is one of the most critical environmental issues affecting the stability of watershed (DAS) ecosystems. This study aims to explore the existential nature of land cover through an ontological approach as a conceptual foundation for sustainable environmental management. A descriptive qualitative method was applied using literature analysis, conceptual mapping, and environmental philosophy interpretation. The results reveal that land cover change not only reflects ecological dynamics but also represents a transformation in the ontological relationship between humans and nature. Within the framework of ecological ontology, land is understood as a living entity possessing intrinsic value and existential function within the web of life. This interpretation is supported by recent studies (2015–2025) demonstrating significant links between land cover change, hydrological responses, and the decline of ecosystem service quality across Indonesia and Southeast Asia (Basuki et al., 2022; Supangat et al., 2023; Locke, 2024). Ontological awareness thus serves as a philosophical foundation for watershed management policies that are ecologically ethical, holistic, and sustainable.

Cooking oil is a staple food widely used in daily cooking. However, repeated use of cooking oil, resulting in its conversion into used cooking oil, can have negative impacts on both health and the environment. Used cooking oil that has changed color and quality is carcinogenic and has the potential to increase the risk of cardiovascular disease if consumed again. Furthermore, improper disposal of used cooking oil can cause environmental pollution because it is difficult to decompose. This study aims to examine the wise management of household waste, especially used cooking oil, by utilizing it into products with utility value. One form of utilization is processing used cooking oil into environmentally friendly soap for laundry purposes. This activity was carried out as a form of community service through training in making soap from used cooking oil with the addition of essential oils for aromatherapy for residents of Pasar Rawa Village, Gebang District, Langkat Regency. The research method used was qualitative, with observation and direct participation in the training activities. The results showed that participants, particularly housewives, demonstrated high enthusiasm and were actively involved in both the presentation and the soap-making practices. This activity not only raised public awareness of the importance of managing used cooking oil waste but also provided new skills that have the potential to support family economic growth.

Public service reform in Indonesia increasingly emphasizes inter-agency collaboration as a mechanism to enhance administrative efficiency, service integration, and responsiveness to citizens’ needs; however, in many regions, including West Kotawaringin Regency, collaborative practices remain fragmented due to uneven human resource (HR) capacities, inconsistencies in standard operating procedures (SOPs), and limited technological integration across institutions. This study aims to examine the current state of HR collaboration, identify key barriers and enabling factors, and propose an integrated and adaptive HR collaboration model to strengthen public service delivery. Using a qualitative multi-case study approach, data were collected through semi-structured interviews with leaders and operational staff from multiple regional government agencies and analyzed using NVivo 15 to generate thematic coding and visual tools such as word clouds, hierarchy charts, and project maps. The findings indicate that current collaboration is largely transactional and administrative, exemplified by the physical co-location of agencies at the Public Service Mall (MPP) without effective systemic interoperability. Three critical themes emerged: gaps in HR distribution, competencies, and role clarity; structural and behavioral constraints including sectoral ego, SOP discrepancies, and limited digital integration; and opportunities to enhance collaboration through shared digital dashboards, inter-agency forums, and cross-functional HR mobility. Based on these results, the study proposes a three-pillar Integrated and Adaptive HR Collaboration Model comprising comprehensive digital integration, flexible HR competency sharing, and inclusive service co-creation involving community stakeholders, offering both theoretical contributions to collaborative governance and practical guidance for regional governments seeking to improve public service effectiveness.
