Accountability of Village Fund Management is one of the accountability forms that is done by the Village Government for their fund management that later will be shared openly with villagers and can be publicly accessed. The Accountability of the Prambangan Village Fund Management was not relevant; as there were differences in village fund details for the 2022-2023 budget year. Those differences occurred because obstacles appeared, i.e. the fund was late in distribution for the 2022 budget year. It affected the village's development and empowerment. Therefore, the role of the Village Government was crucially needed. Some efforts and role-taking were applied to overcome the burdens so that it would not happen again. Moreover, they were implemented to improve the accountability of Village Fund Management at the Prambangan Gresik, East Java. The study was qualitative. Furthermore, the data were primary which were taken from interview results. The instruments in the data collection technique were observation, interview, and documentation. As a result, it showed that the accountability of the Prambangan village fund management was not relevant and accountable, as there was a burden for the distribution fund for the 2022 budget year. Therefore, the Village Government made some efforts and roles together with the village apparatus and villagers to overcome the problems that happened.

This study aims to analyze the application of reality therapy counseling in improving students’ learning motivation influenced by social and family environmental factors. This research uses a qualitative approach with a literature study method supported by interview data as complementary information. Data were collected through the analysis of relevant scientific literature and supported by interviews with parents to describe students’ daily behavior. The results show that low learning motivation is influenced by an unfavorable social environment and lack of family supervision, leading to behaviors that do not support learning activities, such as poor time management and low engagement in academic tasks. The application of reality therapy using the WDEP technique (wants, doing, evaluation, planning) helps students develop self-awareness, evaluate their behavior, and plan more adaptive actions. The findings indicate that reality therapy contributes positively to improving students’ learning motivation through behavioral change and increased personal responsibility. This study concludes that reality therapy can be used as an alternative approach in helping students overcome learning motivation problems.

The ability to read the Qur’an is a fundamental competence that must be possessed by every Muslim student. However, in educational practice at schools, various problems are still found, particularly the low level of Qur’an reading ability among some students, accompanied by learning boredom. One of the contributing factors to this condition is the use of a single, monotonous, and less varied teaching method. This article aims to examine the problems related to students’ ability to read the Qur’an and the learning boredom that arises due to the implementation of a single method in instruction, as well as to offer practical solutions that can be implemented by educators. The writing method of this article uses a literature review approach and reflection on teaching practice. The results of the study show that a single teaching method tends to reduce students’ learning motivation, hinder active engagement, and slow down the improvement of Qur’an reading skills. Therefore, it is necessary to implement more varied, interactive, and contextual teaching methods, such as game-based learning, group work, and the use of innovative instructional media. Thus, it is expected that students’ ability to read the Qur’an can improve and learning boredom can be effectively minimized.

The RAD approach enables fast, flexible, and responsive application development to user needs, by actively involving staff in the process of testing and refining the system. The test results show that the app is able to record attendance in person, generate accurate reports, and support staff data management in a more regular and transparent manner. Thus, this web-based attendance application is expected to improve operational efficiency, strengthen accountability, and support better administrative governance in the DP3A environment of Nabire Regency.

The rapid development of e-commerce in Indonesia makes transactions easier for consumers, but also presents various losses, such as fraud, goods that do not match the description, leaks of personal data, and problems with returning goods. In this context, Law Number 1 of 2024 concerning the Second Amendment to Law Number 11 of 2008 concerning Information and Electronic Transactions (UU ITE) exists as a legal basis which is expected to provide protection for consumers in online buying and selling transactions. This research aims to explore and analyze the effectiveness of the legal protection provided by the ITE Law for consumers, with a focus on protection for detrimental transactions, consumer personal data, as well as dispute resolution mechanisms. The research method used is a normative approach with a literature study of statutory regulations and related legal literature. The research results show that the ITE Law provides quite comprehensive legal protection, including the obligation of electronic system operators to ensure the security of transactions and personal data, as well as regulating sanctions for perpetrators of fraud. However, even though regulations already exist, implementation and consumer understanding of their rights is still a major challenge.

Anxiety and pain are common problems experienced by postoperative patients and may negatively affect physiological and psyhological conditions as well as the recovery process. Management of anxiety and pain can be carried out throught pharmacological and non-pharmacological approaches, one of which is the autogenic relaxation technique. This technique is safe, simple easy to learn and does not cause side effects so it can be applied by healthcare professionals and performed independently by patients. This study aimed to determine the effect of autogenic relaxation on anxiety levels and pain intensity in postoperative patients in the general ward. This study employed a pre-experimental design with a pretest-posttest without control approach. The sample consisted of 31 respondents selected using a purposive sampling technique. Data were collected using the Hamilton Rating Scale for Anxiety (HRS-A) to measure anxiety levels and the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) to assess pain intensity. The result of the Paired Sample T-test showed a p-value of 0,0001 (< 0,05), indicating a significant decrease in the mean anxiety level from moderate to mild after the intevention. The wilcoxon test also showed a p-value of 0,0001 (< 0,05), demonstrating a significant difference in pain intensity before and after the intervention, from moderate pain to mild pain. It can be cocluded that the autogenic relaxation technique has a significant effect on reducing anxiety levels and pain intensity in postoperative patients. This technique is recommended as a non-pharmacological intervention that can be applied by healthcare professionals to enhance patient comfort and support the postoperative recovery process.

Indonesia faces various metabolic health problems that are often associated with food and beverage consumption, including chronic kidney disease. One contributing factor is the excessive use of food preservatives such as sodium benzoate, which may cause gastrointestinal disturbances, oxidative stress, inflammation, chronic kidney failure, and carcinogenic effects. This study aimed to determine the relationship between sellers’ knowledge level and the use of sodium benzoate preservative in jumbo iced tea sold in Kedungmundu and Sendangmulyo Subdistricts, Semarang City. The study employed an analytic quantitative method with a cross-sectional design. A total of 40 jumbo iced tea sellers were selected using simple random sampling. Sodium benzoate testing was conducted using UV-Visible spectrophotometry, and data were analyzed using Spearman’s rho correlation test. The results showed that 70% of respondents had a high level of knowledge, while 5% of samples were positive for sodium benzoate. Statistical analysis revealed a significant inverse relationship between sellers’ knowledge level and the use of sodium benzoate (p = 0.011; r = -0.397). This indicates that higher knowledge levels are associated with a lower likelihood of sodium benzoate use. In conclusion, there is a significant negative correlation between sellers’ knowledge and the use of sodium benzoate in jumbo iced tea.

Pendidikan merupakan proses yang tidak hanya berorientasi pada pencapaian akademik, tetapi juga pada pengembangan potensi, karakter, serta kemampuan sosial peserta didik. Dalam praktiknya, setiap siswa memiliki latar belakang, kemampuan intelektual, kondisi emosional, dan lingkungan sosial yang berbeda, sehingga berpotensi menimbulkan berbagai permasalahan, baik akademik, pribadi, maupun sosial. Permasalahan tersebut apabila tidak ditangani secara tepat dapat berdampak pada menurunnya motivasi belajar, rendahnya prestasi, hingga terganggunya proses penyesuaian diri siswa di lingkungan sekolah. Oleh karena itu, layanan Bimbingan dan Konseling (BK) memiliki peran strategis dalam membantu siswa memahami diri, mengembangkan potensi, serta menyelesaikan permasalahan yang dihadapi secara efektif dan terarah. Guru BK sebagai tenaga profesional di sekolah tidak hanya berfungsi sebagai pemberi layanan konseling, tetapi juga sebagai motivator, mediator, fasilitator, dan pembimbing dalam mendukung perkembangan optimal siswa. Melalui layanan pribadi, sosial, dan akademik, guru BK berupaya menciptakan lingkungan belajar yang kondusif dan mendukung pertumbuhan karakter siswa secara menyeluruh. Di SMPIT ‘Abdan Syakuro Lampu Iman, pelaksanaan layanan BK dilakukan secara sistematis melalui program rutin, konseling individu, psikotes, serta kolaborasi dengan wali kelas dan pihak sekolah. Meskipun demikian, masih terdapat kendala seperti rendahnya kesadaran siswa untuk berkonsultasi secara mandiri. Berdasarkan kondisi tersebut, penting untuk mengkaji efektivitas peran guru BK dalam menyelesaikan permasalahan siswa guna meningkatkan kualitas layanan konseling di sekolah.
