This article examines the implementation of a sharia financial literacy education program aimed at supporting community economic development at the Balai Perkumpulan Sub PPKBD Tambakkemerakan, Krian, driven by the persistently low level of community literacy regarding Islamic finance concepts and practices, which has the potential to impede the optimization of Islamic principles-based economic well-being. Employing the Participatory Action Research (PAR) method, this study engaged community members actively throughout the processes of problem identification, program implementation, and evaluation, with activities conducted through socialization sessions, interactive discussions, and practical demonstrations of sharia-compliant financial management in real-life contexts. The findings indicate a measurable improvement in community comprehension of Islamic finance fundamentals, including the prohibition of riba (usury/interest), the importance of financial planning, and the utilization of sharia-compliant financial institutions, alongside observable attitudinal shifts toward more prudent and Islamically normative financial behavior. These outcomes suggest that the program contributes positively to fostering community economic independence and strengthening the application of Islamic economic principles at the household level.

Low financial literacy among students, particularly in Islamic boarding schools, poses a challenge in fostering early economic independence. At Pondok Pesantren NW Montong Lisung, students generally lack the ability to manage pocket money, maintain financial records, and develop saving habits. This condition underlies the implementation of a community service program aimed at building smart financial habits through financial management education. The method employed a participatory approach consisting of counseling, training, and mentoring stages. Evaluation was conducted using pre-test and post-test, observation, and assessment of students’ financial record practices. The results showed a significant improvement in students’ financial literacy, increasing from an average of 42.5% to 79.5%, along with positive behavioral changes such as increased saving habits and better expense control. These findings indicate that financial management education is effective in improving students’ financial understanding and skills. Therefore, this program is important to be implemented sustainably to support the development of students’ economic independence in the future.

Supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) is one of the most common arrhythmias in the pediatric population, often resulting from re-entry mechanisms involving accessory pathways or dual atrioventricular nodal physiology. Although generally well tolerated in children with structurally normal hearts, its management can be challenging, particularly in recurrent or persistent cases. This study is a case report describing a pediatric patient with hemodynamically stable SVT treated at Dr. Wahidin Sudirohusodo Hospital. Data were collected retrospectively from medical records, including history taking, physical examination, and supporting investigations such as serial electrocardiography (ECG), laboratory tests, chest radiography, and transthoracic echocardiography. Management was conducted according to current clinical guidelines, including vagal maneuvers, pharmacological therapy with beta-blockers and antiarrhythmic agents (amiodarone), and monitoring of treatment response based on clinical evaluation and ECG, along with identification and treatment of underlying triggers. We report a case of a 10-year-old female presenting with suspected SVT and pericarditis, who experienced episodes of narrow QRS complex tachycardia that were successfully converted to sinus rhythm following amiodarone administration. Echocardiographic evaluation revealed mild to moderate tricuspid regurgitation with preserved ventricular function. Laboratory and radiological findings suggested an underlying inflammatory process, which was considered a triggering factor. This case highlights the importance of a comprehensive approach in the diagnosis and management of pediatric SVT, including addressing underlying conditions and ensuring continuous monitoring to prevent recurrence.

Effervescent granules are a pharmaceutical dosage form that offer advantages in terms of ease of use, improved palatability, and rapid solubility in water. This study aimed to formulate and evaluate the physical properties of vitamin C Effervescent granules using the dry granulation method. The main materials used included ascorbic acid as the active substance, citric acid and tartaric acid as acid sources, and sodium bicarbonate as the base source. Evaluation was carried out on organoleptic properties, flow properties, pH, angle of repose, moisture content, density, compressibility index, and dispersion time. The results showed that the granules met the requirements for organoleptic properties, pH (4–5), angle of repose (38.41°), compressibility index (12.3%), and dissolution time (49.62 seconds). However, the flow property (29.11 seconds) and moisture content (6.47%) did not meet the established standards. These findings indicate that the formulated granules met most of the evaluation parameters but still require optimization, particularly in the drying process and flow properties, to obtain a more stable and high-quality dosage form.

The results show an increase in the community's ability and understanding in performing simple household appliance maintenance and repairs. Furthermore, the community is beginning to recognize economic opportunities from their skills, thus potentially developing independent repair service businesses. Thus, the application of the ABCD approach in this activity has proven effective in strengthening the community's economic independence in a sustainable manner through optimizing local assets. Going forward, ongoing mentoring efforts are needed to ensure that the potential that has been established can continue to develop and provide broader economic benefits.

The increasing elderly population presents challenges in healthcare services, particularly related to decreased mobility and independence in daily activities. Physiotherapy plays a crucial role in maintaining and improving the mobility function of older adults through appropriate evaluation and intervention approaches. One simple, valid, and reliable measurement tool for assessing functional mobility is the Timed Up and Go Test (TUG). This study aims to examine the role of physiotherapy in increasing independence in older adults through functional mobility assessment using the TUG. The method used was a descriptive-analytical study with a cross-sectional approach in a group of older adults. Measurements were conducted using the TUG to assess mobility, balance, and fall risk. The assessment results were then used as the basis for planning physiotherapy interventions, which included muscle strength training, balance training, and functional exercises. The results showed that older adults with better TUG scores had higher levels of independence in daily activities. Targeted physiotherapy interventions based on TUG results have proven effective in improving mobility and reducing fall risk. Therefore, using the TUG as an initial assessment tool is crucial in determining appropriate rehabilitation strategies. In conclusion, physiotherapy plays a significant role in increasing the independence of older adults through an approach based on functional mobility assessment using the TUG. Routine implementation of this assessment is expected to support optimal quality of life for older adults.

This study aims to evaluate the application of environmental management accounting in the management of work programs at the Bangkalan Regency Environmental Agency. The research is motivated by increasing environmental problems, particularly waste volume and limited management facilities, while environmental management accounting has the potential to assist agencies in identifying, measuring, and reporting environmental costs as a basis for decision-making and public accountability. This study used a qualitative method with a case study approach at the Bangkalan Regency Environmental Agency. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation studies. The results show that the Environmental Agency has implemented environmental management accounting, but its recording is still manual and does not separate environmental costs from general operational costs. This condition complicates cost evaluation and program impact assessment. Work program management has been structured and evaluated regularly, but performance measurement still focuses on output, not long-term environmental impact. Information transparency is also still limited to activity publications. Overall, the application of environmental accounting is at a basic stage and has not been fully integrated into the work program planning and evaluation process. The findings of this study provide theoretical and practical implications in the form of strengthening understanding of the role of environmental management accounting and the need to improve the work program recording and evaluation system at the Bangkalan Regency Environmental Agency.

Islamic education management in the contemporary era is no longer adequate if understood solely as an administrative activity, but must be built on a solid philosophical, ethical, and spiritual foundation. This article aims to analyze the concept of Islamic education management from the perspective of Al-Ghazali and Syed Muhammad Naquib al-Attas and examine the relevance of its implementation for contemporary Islamic education management. This study uses a qualitative approach with a library research type. Data were obtained from the primary works of both figures and various relevant secondary sources, then analyzed through a comparative-conceptual approach with qualitative content analysis techniques and hermeneutic reading. The results show that Al-Ghazali emphasizes the ethical-spiritual dimension of education through the integration of knowledge, charity, morals, and purification of the soul, while al-Attas emphasizes the epistemological-philosophical dimension through the concepts of ta'dib, adab, and the Islamic worldview. Both have a common ground in the view that Islamic education must be directed at the formation of knowledgeable, civilized, and moral human beings, and should not be reduced to a technical process with neutral value. In terms of implementation, this study synthesizes the thoughts of both figures relevant to strengthening education, leadership, curriculum and learning management, institutional culture formation, and holistic educational evaluation. Therefore, Islamic educational management is ideally built on a foundation of ethical-spiritual and epistemological-philosophical integration to ensure effective, valuable, and transcendental-oriented educational governance.
