This study aims to examine the application of group guidance in improving students' learning processes at the secondary school level. Group guidance is one of the services in guidance and counseling that allows students to discuss, share experiences, and develop problem-solving skills in a group setting. The background of this research stems from the observation that many students experience difficulties in their learning process, including low motivation, ineffective learning strategies, and an inability to manage academic pressure. The method used in this study is a literature review approach that examines various relevant research and theories. The results show that group guidance has a significant positive impact on improving students' learning processes, including increasing learning motivation, developing effective study habits, enhancing social interaction among students, and reducing academic anxiety. Group guidance also provides a safe space for students to express their academic difficulties and receive constructive support from peers and counselors. The implications of this research suggest that group guidance services need to be consistently and systematically implemented in schools as part of a comprehensive guidance and counseling program. Schools are recommended to design structured group guidance programs with clear objectives and methods tailored to students' developmental needs. This approach is proven to be effective in supporting students' academic achievement and personal development.

The purpose of this research is to examine how guidance and counseling instructors may help children in junior high get over their anxiety about speaking out in class. Students' lack of confidence and engagement in class might be exacerbated by the widespread problem of their fear of asking questions. In order to delve further into the issue, this study used a descriptive technique based on qualitative research. Students and instructors of guidance and counseling participated in interviews and observations to compile the data. The results highlight the important role that counseling and guidance instructors play in assisting students in coping with anxiety. Counseling sessions with individuals, group guidance exercises, and making an attempt to establish a welcoming classroom setting all contribute to this goal. Teachers also use excellent communication tactics and motivating initiatives to help pupils feel more comfortable expressing themselves. A more favorable classroom environment may also be achieved via collaboration between topic teachers and counseling instructors. Ultimately, the research demonstrates that students' anxiety of asking questions may be successfully reduced via the use of suitable counseling and guiding interventions. Consequently, students' self-esteem, classroom engagement, and academic performance are all much improved when guidance and counseling instructors are present.

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.

This study aims to analyze legal protection for lenders in the terms and conditions clauses of Peer-to-Peer (P2P) Lending platforms in Indonesia, particularly regarding the risk of default or breach of contract. The background of the study is based on the rapid growth of the P2P Lending fintech industry accompanied by an increase in the risk of default, as well as the potential imbalance in the lenders' bargaining position due to the use of standard clauses that are often detrimental. The results of this study reveal that of the 10 P2P Lending platforms that the author studied, none of the platforms can be said to have completely fulfilled all components of preventive and repressive protection as regulated by POJK No. 40 of 2024. This problem is exacerbated by the existence of exoneration clauses prohibited by POJK No. 22 of 2023 Article 46 paragraph (2), where platforms often unilaterally limit their responsibilities by transferring the risk of default entirely to lenders, thereby reducing consumer rights and violating the principle of consumer protection in Law No. 8 of 1999 Article 18 paragraph (1).

The problem addressed in this research is the suboptimal implementation of the Community-Based Drinking Water Supply and Sanitation Program (PAMSIMAS) in Koili Village. The objective of this research is to analyze the implementation of the PAMSIMAS Program based on Donald P. Warwick’s policy implementation theory, which includes organizational capacity, information, support, and the distribution of potential resources. This research employs a descriptive qualitative method. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation involving informants from the local government, village officials, PAMSIMAS management, and community members, both beneficiaries and non-beneficiaries. The findings indicate that the PAMSIMAS Program has been implemented; however, it has not yet been fully optimized. Organizational capacity and information dissemination have been implemented, but limitations remain in implementers’ capacity and in the equitable distribution of information. Support from the village government and the community is relatively good; nevertheless, coordination and the distribution of potential resources still need improvement. This research recommends that future researchers examine the implementation of PAMSIMAS on a broader regional scale and incorporate a more in-depth analysis of sustainability and community participation.

Local fashion businesses require accurate production cost calculations to ensure appropriate and sustainable pricing decisions. Problems often faced by small businesses is determining selling prices without comprehensive calculation of the cost of production. This study aims to analyze the calculation of the cost of production as the basis for determining the selling price at Voraya Wear, a student-based local fashion business developed through the Student Creativity Program (PKM). The research used a descriptive quantitative approach with direct practice methods. Data were collected through observation, documentation, and financial records, then analyzed using the full costing method to calculate the cost of production and the cost-plus pricing method to determine the selling price. The results show that the total production cost was Rp1,831,064 for 24 units, resulting in a unit cost of Rp65,757 for shirts and Rp86,832 for pants. By applying a profit margin of 30–40%, the business generated total revenue of Rp2,520,000 and a net profit of Rp688,936. These findings indicate that accurate cost calculation supports rational pricing decisions and ensures business profitability and sustainability.

The methods used were field observation, initial health surveys, health education, and reflection on personal hygiene practices as promotive-preventive interventions. The results showed an increase in participants' understanding of the importance of hand and body hygiene, and the care of minor wounds after the intervention. This activity was concluded to be effective and is recommended for continuous implementation for fishermen in coastal areas.

21st-century skills are a crucial aspect that students must master, equipping them to face the challenges of modern development. In history learning, the use of Problem-Based Learning (PBL) is considered a powerful tool for transforming learning from rote memorization to active, problem-solving-based learning. This study aims to analyze the role of PBL in enhancing 21st-century skills in history learning through the Problem-Based Learning (SLR) approach. The research method used in this study is the SLR with a prism procedure. The data were obtained from a search of scientific articles through Google Scholar using the keywords Problem-Based Learning, 21st-Century Skills, and history learning. From the initial 2,540 articles obtained, after screening based on relevance, quality, and year range, six key articles were obtained. The study results indicate that PBL is effective in enhancing 21st-century skills through discussions, historical source analysis, and contextual problem-solving. This approach is considered appropriate for the curriculum because it encourages student-centered learning, rather than teacher-centered learning. Although PBL still faces several challenges in its implementation, it remains a relevant and effective learning strategy for developing 21st-century skills.

This study aims to redesign the raw material yarn warehouse layout at PT. XYZ using the Class Based Storage method to improve storage and retrieval efficiency. The main problem identified in the warehouse is random item placement, resulting in relatively long retrieval times of approximately 10–15 minutes per pallet. This research applies a descriptive quantitative approach using a case study method. The data used consists of inbound, outbound, and inventory records of yarn raw materials from November 2024 to April 2025. The analysis was conducted using the FSN (Fast Moving, Slow Moving, and Non-Moving) method through the calculation of consumption rate and average stay, combined with ABC classification to determine storage priority. The results show that 9 types of yarn are classified as Class A, 11 types as Class B, and 11 types as Class C. Based on this classification, a new warehouse layout was designed by placing Class A items near the input-output area, Class B items in the middle area, and Class C items in the back area of the warehouse, thereby improving storage efficiency and reducing retrieval time.

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 development of the palm oil industry in Indonesia typically relies on collaboration with smallholder farmers, but this collaboration often faces various problems such as poor cultivation techniques, lack of technical guidance, unclear administrative matters, and limited access to certification and markets. This study aims to develop a specific human resource management model to support collaboration with smallholder farmers, thereby improving production yields, sustainability, and engagement in the palm oil supply chain. The method used is a desk study, namely by analyzing and reconstructing information from research results, industry reports, and palm oil certification and sustainability policies. Based on the analysis, a career structure and Human Resource Management functions are proposed, consisting of collaboration supervisors, field officers, capacity training officers, collaboration administration staff, and collaboration/certification managers. This model allows for technical and administrative assistance, training for farmers, collaboration coordination, and certification and compliance management. The implementation of this model is predicted to improve cultivation quality, improve smallholder access to certification and markets, and strengthen the stability and sustainability of the supply chain. Thus, the HR model for smallholders offers a strategic solution to the various challenges of working with smallholders and supports the development of a socially, economically, and environmentally sustainable palm oil agribusiness sector.

Local governments manage substantial public resources under conditions of decentralization, fiscal complexity, and heightened accountability demands, making them particularly vulnerable to financial mismanagement and fraud. In this context, risk-based internal oversight has increasingly been promoted as a governance-oriented alternative to traditional compliance-based supervision. This literature review article examines how risk-based internal oversight is conceptualized, operationalized, and linked to fraud prevention and control in the management of local government finance. The study addresses a central problem in the existing literature: the fragmentation of analytical perspectives across risk-based internal auditing, fraud risk management, internal control systems, public financial management, and public accountability, which has limited a comprehensive understanding of how internal oversight contributes to safeguarding public funds. The primary objective of this article is to synthesize and integrate these strands of literature to clarify the role of risk-based internal oversight as a systemic governance mechanism for fraud prevention and control at the subnational level. Methodologically, the study employs an integrative literature review approach, drawing on peer-reviewed journal articles and authoritative institutional publications indexed in major academic databases over the past decade. A structured search, screening, and thematic synthesis process was applied to identify patterns, convergences, and divergences across conceptual, empirical, and policy-oriented studies. The findings indicate a clear shift from compliance-oriented inspection toward risk-based internal oversight that prioritizes high-risk financial processes—particularly procurement, grants, and asset management—where fraud risks are most pronounced. The synthesis further shows that effective fraud prevention depends on the alignment of risk-based oversight with fraud risk management practices, robust internal control systems (including SPIP).

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.

Typhoid fever is an infectious disease caused by Salmonella typhi. Transmission can occur through air or food contaminated with the urine and feces of typhoid sufferers, such as air used for drinking, cooking, and washing food. Symptoms of typhoid fever include a prolonged high fever, defined as an elevated body temperature of >37.5°C. Other symptoms can include fatigue, nausea, abdominal pain, constipation or diarrhea, and headache. This study aimed to treat children with typhoid fever. The method used was a case study of a five-year-old child with typhoid fever who was hospitalized for four days. The results showed that the child had fever, obesity, and decreased appetite. The child's problem was hypothermia, while cooling interventions were used to manage hypothermia, and one of the cooling procedures performed was the application of aloe vera compresses. The evaluation results showed that the hyperthermia resolved after four days of hospitalization. Based on this study, it is hoped that patients and their families can independently apply aloe vera compresses to treat hypothermia in children.
