This study aims to explore the role of metacognitive awareness in improving the speaking performance of hospitality vocational students. Using a mixed-methods design, this study involved 50 students of the Prasetiya Mandiri Polytechnic and combined quantitative data from the adapted Metacognitive Awareness Inventory (MAI) as well as role-play-based speaking tests, with qualitative data from in-depth interviews. The results of correlation analysis showed a significant positive relationship (r = 0.65) between metacognitive scores and speaking performance. The most dominant metacognitive strategies reported by students included self-monitoring during speaking and post-task reflection. These findings reveal that students with high metacognitive awareness tend to be able to manage their communication more effectively in professional situations. Research implications include the importance of integrating metacognitive training in vocational curricula, such as through reflective journals and communication strategy guides. The study also highlights a curriculum gap, where only 32% of respondents reported having received explicit training related to metacognitive strategies. Limitations include small sample sizes, so it is recommended that follow-up studies be conducted longitudinally and across institutions.

The balance of rights and obligations in contracts is a fundamental basis for creating justice and legal certainty. With effective protection for all parties in the contract, be it in the realm of commerce or other social relations, it is expected to create a conducive legal environment, which in turn encourages social and economic development. The process of drafting contracts in various fields, such as micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs), shows the importance of good design to guarantee the rights of each party In this context, it is important to explore how the contract structure can be designed in such a way that both parties can fulfill their rights and obligations fairly, as well as serve as a guideline in resolving disputes that may arise in the future. rights and obligations are basic principles in contract law that aim to create justice, legal certainty, and balanced protection for all parties to the agreement. In the process of contract formation, balance is achieved through the principles of freedom of contract, good faith, and transparent negotiations so that the rights and obligations of both parties are arranged fairly and proportionally.

The principle of proportionality plays an important role in ensuring the balance of rights and obligations between the parties in a reciprocal agreement. In the context of Indonesian contract law, this principle functions as a mechanism to prevent inequality that can harm one of the parties, especially in commercial and complex contracts. As stated by Hernoko (2016), the application of the principle of proportionality in commercial contracts aims to create substantive justice through a balanced exchange of rights and obligations between the parties. This study uses a normative legal approach with a literature study method, which involves an analysis of related laws and regulations and case studies. This approach allows researchers to explore the application of the principle of proportionality in various types of reciprocal agreements, including franchise agreements and construction service contracts. For example, a study by Susanto et al. (2021)1 highlights how the principle of proportionality is applied in construction service contracts to ensure a fair distribution of responsibilities between contractors and clients. The results of the analysis show that consistent application of the principle of proportionality can improve justice in contractual relationships. In franchise agreements, for example, Rahmawan et al. (2020)2 found that the application of this principle helps create a balance between the rights and obligations of franchisors and franchisees, who often have different bargaining positions. Thus, the principle of proportionality functions not only as a legal principle, but also as a practical tool to achieve justice in contractual practices.

There are several developments in the practice of pawn gates, on the condition that pawn gates can also be done for the educational needs of nephews or business capital. Developments in the use of transaction tools can now use money.

Earnings performance is seen as one of the main indicators in assessing the company's financial performance, which can influence investor decisions and be reflected in market reactions through abnormal returns. Meanwhile, internal control is considered as an internal control mechanism that can strengthen investor confidence in the quality of earnings information submitted by the company. This study aims to examine the effect of earnings performance on cumulative abnormal return (CAR) and the role of internal control as a moderating variable in the relationship. The focus of this research is on real estate and property sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2019-2023 period. The sample of this study consisted of 44 companies and 199 observations selected through purposive sampling technique with certain criteria. Hypothesis testing was carried out using moderated regression analysis. The results showed that earnings performance has a positive and significant effect on cumulative abnormal return, which indicates that the better the company's earnings performance, the higher the positive market reaction to the information. In addition, other findings show that internal control moderates positively and significantly the relationship between earnings performance and cumulative abnormal return. This means that the effect of earnings performance on CAR will be stronger in companies that have a good internal control system.

The Final Project is an official work that consists of a thesis or an artwork, which is the result of research or scientific creation by students, conducted through a series of steps and procedures in accordance with the Final Project (TA) guidelines set by each faculty. One strategy to encourage students to complete their studies as quickly as possible is to require students who are working on their Final Project (TA) to attend campus at least once a week to report on their progress while bringing their Final Project guidance card. Interviews are conducted with students to find a supervising lecturer, students hold proposal guidance, after which the proposal is validated, students then register for the proposal seminar, students conduct the proposal seminar, a decree (SK) is issued, students continue with Final Project guidance, the documentation of the Final Project is validated, students register for the results seminar and final defense, as well as students undergoing plagiarism checks. This is due to the lack of application platforms that can monitor students' completion of their final projects online. Therefore, research on an information system application to supervise students' final projects is very much needed.

The implementation of personal data protection in information systems at financial services companies is an important issue in this digital era. This study aims to analyze the implementation of personal data protection in information systems at financial services companies in Indonesia after the enactment of Law Number 27 of 2022 concerning Personal Data Protection (UU PDP). The main focus of the study is to identify the level of company compliance with the principles of personal data protection, the challenges faced in its implementation, and the legal and business implications that arise. The research method used is normative law with a qualitative approach, supported by literature studies and analysis of related documents. The results of the study show that although the PDP Law has been enacted, the implementation of personal data protection in the information systems of financial services companies still faces various challenges, including system complexity, varying stakeholder awareness, and the need for significant technology investment. This study concludes that more comprehensive efforts are needed from all relevant parties to ensure the effective implementation of the PDP Law and provide concrete suggestions for future improvements.

Protection of well-known trademarks is a crucial aspect of intellectual property systems, especially in the face of global trade dynamics and the development of digital technologies. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of legal protection for owners of well-known trademarks from the perspective of court decisions in Indonesia. Using a qualitative method based on a normative juridical approach and case studies of court rulings (including the Hugo Boss and Superman cases), this research reveals that trademark protection in Indonesia remains reactive, dependent on litigation, and has not fully prevented the registration of confusingly similar trademarks by parties acting in bad faith. Moreover, the absence of objective standards for defining well-known trademarks and indicators of bad faith weakens legal certainty. On the other hand, courts have begun to show consistency in rejecting trademark registrations that violate the principles of well-known trademark protection, although this has yet to be supported by an adequate administrative system from the Directorate General of Intellectual Property (DJKI). The study recommends the establishment of technical regulations, strengthening DJKI’s capacity, and integrating protection systems with international norms as strategic steps to reinforce legal protection for owners of well-known trademarks in Indonesia.

This study examines the legal consequences and liability arising from actions taken by the Board of Directors and the Board of Commissioners of a limited liability company (Perseroan Terbatas PT) after their official terms of office have expired. Employing a cross-sectional quantitative survey design, a Likert-scale questionnaire was distributed to 270 respondent comprising corporate managers of publicly listed companies on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (large-, mid-, and small-cap) and corporate law practitioners in Greater Jakarta. Construct validity (KMO = 0.68; Bartlett’s Test p < 0.001) and reliability (Cronbach’s α = 0.78–0.84) confirmed the adequacy of the instrument. Descriptive analysis showed moderate mean scores for legal status of actions (Mean = 3.12) and reappointment mechanisms (Mean = 2.75). Pearson’s correlation revealed a significant positive relationship between “ultra vires” actions and civil liability risk (r = 0.582; p < 0.001) as well as criminal liability risk (r = 0.314; p < 0.001), whereas reappointment via the General Meeting of Shareholders (RUPS) correlated negatively with civil (r = –0.423; p < 0.001) and criminal (r = –0.287; p < 0.001) risks. Multiple linear regression reinforced these findings (R² = 0.52 for civil risk; R² = 0.31 for criminal risk). ANOVA indicated that small-cap firms faced the highest civil risk and that practitioners with over ten years of experience reported the lowest concern for criminal risk. These results underscore the need for proactive RUPS scheduling, multi-layered authorization systems, and strengthened compliance functions to mitigate ultra vires risks and reinforce good corporate governance.

Foreign direct investment (FDI) has a strategic role in Indonesia's economic development. However, the realization of foreign investment is not free from challenges related to legal certainty and protection. This study aims to analyze legal protection for foreign investors in Indonesia, both in terms of applicable legal norms and from the aspect of implementation in the field. Through a literature review, information was collected from various sources in the form of journals, articles, and relevant laws and regulations to gain a broad understanding of legal protection for foreign investors at the normative and implementation levels in Indonesia. The results of the study indicate that Indonesian laws and regulations, especially Law No. 25/2007 concerning Investment, various Bilateral Investment Treaties (BITs), and FTAs ​​provide a comprehensive legal protection framework for foreign investors. In the field, legal uncertainty still arises due to overlapping regulations, frequent policy changes, and different interpretations between institutions. Slow and less transparent licensing bureaucracy, as well as the risk of extortion practices, reduce the attractiveness of investment. Reform efforts such as simplifying licensing through OSS, establishing BKPM as a one-stop shop, and ratifying the Omnibus Law on Job Creation have shown progress in increasing certainty and ease of investment.

The findings indicate serious breaches of ethical principles in the accounting profession, including integrity, objectivity, and professional competence. These violations had significant impacts on investor trust, capital market stability, and the reputation of the accounting profession. Moreover, the case highlights the urgent need for stronger supervision, reforms in financial reporting practices, and the integration of ethical values in accounting activities. This study contributes to a deeper understanding of the importance of ethics in maintaining transparency and accountability in financial reporting.

In the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, the development of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has transformed the way we understand and practice religion, including the spread of extremist religious ideologies. Religious moderation education has become an essential tool for strengthening national awareness by instilling values of tolerance, inclusivity, and love for the homeland. This education promotes a balanced and tolerant understanding of religion. However, a significant challenge arises from the overwhelming flow of information on the internet, which is not matched by adequate digital literacy. Therefore, religious moderation education serves as a filter to counter radicalization. This study uses a review research method with a qualitative approach to analyze the implementation of religious moderation education through formal, nonformal, and informal channels. The findings indicate that formal education is effective in instilling moderate character through a systematic structure. Nonformal institutions, such as Islamic boarding schools and study groups, also play a crucial role in spreading moderate Islamic values. Meanwhile, informal education within families provides a vital foundation for instilling these values from an early age. This study recommends strengthening the religious moderation curriculum, optimizing the role of nonformal institutions, and empowering families to enhance national awareness and address the potential for radicalization.
