The rise of social media has created a digital public sphere that enables users to express their opinions on social and political issues openly and in real-time. One of the most discussed topics on social media platform X is the trending hashtag #IndonesiaGelap, which reflects public concern and criticism regarding various governmental and societal conditions. This study aims to conduct sentiment analysis on tweets containing the hashtag to determine the overall sentiment trend among users. The method employed in this research is the Naive Bayes classification algorithm, known for its simplicity and effectiveness in text classification. To enhance the model’s performance, Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is applied to optimize feature selection and parameter tuning. The dataset consists of public tweets collected via the Twitter API, followed by preprocessing, feature extraction using TF-IDF, and sentiment classification into three categories: positive, negative, and neutral. The results indicate that the integration of PSO significantly improves the classification accuracy of the Naive Bayes model compared to the baseline. The majority of tweets related to #IndonesiaGelap exhibit a negative sentiment, indicating widespread public dissatisfaction and criticism. This research is expected to contribute to a better understanding of public perception and serve as valuable input for stakeholders in addressing social issues in the digital age.

This study aims to analyze the relevance of Robert Raikes' Christian educational thinking to the character formation of children in contemporary Sunday School services. This study uses a qualitative approach with a library research method. Data were obtained from various literature sources such as books, scientific journals, and research articles related to Christian education, character education, and the history of Sunday School development. Data analysis techniques were carried out through the stages of data reduction, grouping themes, interpretation, and drawing conclusions using descriptive qualitative methods. The results show that Robert Raikes' thoughts remain relevant in modern Christian education, especially in the formation of children's character through the teaching of God's Word, discipline, role models, and the instilling of Christian values. Sunday School plays an important role as a means of fostering faith, morality, and social responsibility in children from an early age. In addition, the challenges of the digital era require churches to develop more creative, interactive, and contextual learning methods without abandoning the basic values ​​of the Christian faith. This study confirms that the success of children's character formation depends not only on the church, but also on the role of Sunday School teachers and families who work together to build a conducive spiritual environment. Thus, Robert Raikes' thinking makes an important contribution to the development of Christian education that is relevant in the modern era.

Telepharmacy is a digital-based pharmaceutical service innovation aimed at improving access to healthcare services and enhancing the quality of pharmaceutical care, particularly in areas with limited healthcare resources. This study aimed to evaluate the implementation of telepharmacy services at Sehat Plus Pharmacy based on the six healthcare quality dimensions established by the World Health Organization (WHO), namely safety, effectiveness, timeliness, efficiency, equity, and patient-centeredness, and to analyze their association with respondent characteristics. A quantitative descriptive-analytic study with a cross-sectional design was conducted. The study involved 35 respondents selected using a total sampling technique. Data were collected through a structured Likert-scale questionnaire and analyzed using univariate analysis and Spearman correlation tests with a significance level of α = 0.05. The results indicated that the overall implementation of telepharmacy services was categorized as very good (88.8%), with the safety dimension achieving the highest evaluation score among all quality dimensions. Most respondents were female and aged between 21 and 25 years. Statistical analysis revealed a significant association between age and perceptions of telepharmacy implementation (p = 0.004; r = -0.471), indicating a moderate negative correlation. In contrast, gender, educational level, and occupation showed no significant association with service implementation (p > 0.05). It can be concluded that telepharmacy services at Sehat Plus Pharmacy have met WHO healthcare quality standards and provide positive user experiences, while age remains an important factor influencing service perception and acceptance.

The phenomenon of globalization is rapidly expanding and influencing nearly every aspect of life. Foreign cultures are entering Indonesia through various digital platforms. If left unchecked, these external cultural influences could erode the nation’s identity and history. This study examines how cultural heritage and national history are increasingly being eroded by globalization, with a primary focus on the role of the digital age as a catalyst for this acceleration. The researcher employed a literature review method using a qualitative-descriptive approach. The results of the analysis are clear: the erosion of Indonesia’s cultural identity has been categorized as a non-traditional threat. This is multidimensional, transcends national borders, involves global digital corporations, and is now recognized as a threat to national security. Social media and digital platform algorithms accelerate this process, particularly among Gen Z. Ali Khamenei’s thoughts on cultural warfare are highly relevant for understanding the current situation. The impacts span numerous aspects from social stability, ideology, and the economy to politics and defense. The researchers recommend that the government strengthen cross-sectoral coordination, expand the BPIP and DPPI programs into the digital realm, revitalize cultural and history curricula, and promote local culture through more innovative methods on digital platforms.

This study aims to analyze the reconceptualization of national security in the digital era through the case of the 2021 Facebook data breach involving 533 million users across 106 countries. As digital technologies become increasingly integrated into governance, economic activities, and social interactions, cyber threats have emerged as a significant challenge to contemporary security frameworks. This research employs a qualitative descriptive approach using library research methods, drawing upon academic literature, official reports, and relevant policy documents. The findings indicate that national security has evolved from a traditional military-centered concept toward a broader and multidimensional framework that includes cyber threats as a form of non-traditional security challenge. The Facebook data breach demonstrates how cyber threats transcend geographical boundaries, involve complex attribution problems, and generate multidimensional impacts on individuals, societies, economies, and states. Through the lens of Securitization Theory developed by Buzan, Wæver, and de Wilde (1998), the incident illustrates how data security has become securitized as a matter of national and international concern. Furthermore, the Human Security framework proposed by UNDP (1994) highlights the vulnerability of individuals whose personal information becomes exposed in the digital environment. This study concludes that cybersecurity should be recognized as a fundamental pillar of national security in the digital age, requiring comprehensive strategies that integrate technological resilience, data protection regulations, human resource development, and international cooperation.

Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) of chips in Pugeran Village, Gondang District, Mojokerto Regency face structural obstacles in the form of limited internal governance and weak market penetration. Around 80% of business actors are still managed conventionally, triggering production inefficiencies and a lack of mastery of persuasive marketing language on packaging. This community service activity aims to reconstruct an effective division of labor based on HR governance mindset, build the capacity of practical skills in packaging copywriting and digital media, and change business behavior from conventional reactive to strategic proactive. The program is implemented with an Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD) approach through three main intervention stages, namely diagnosis and reconstruction of MSDM, co-creation and marketing language assistance, and the adoption of proactive behavior through coaching and market simulation. The results showed a significant socio-economic transformation, characterized by the implementation of labor division SOPs that increased production efficiency by 18%, as well as the adoption of new packaging and persuasive copywriting techniques that expanded market reach beyond the region and increased average turnover by 22% in two months. In addition, a new social institution was formed in the form of the "Prosperous Pugeran Chips Craftsmen Association" and the emergence of young local leaders as agents of the program's sustainability.

This study aims to analyze the implementation of e-government at the Jambi Province Cooperatives and SMEs Office and identify the factors influencing its implementation based on George Edward III’s policy implementation theory. The research employed a qualitative approach with a descriptive design. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation involving office personnel and community service users as informants. The findings indicate that the implementation of e-government has not yet been optimal in supporting the delivery of digital-based public services. Several factors contribute to this condition, including ineffective communication and dissemination of information to the public, limited human resources with adequate technological competencies, implementers’ attitudes that are not fully adaptive to technological changes, and a bureaucratic structure that has not supported comprehensive system integration. These challenges affect the efficiency, accessibility, and quality of public services provided by the agency. Furthermore, the study highlights the importance of strengthening coordination among stakeholders and improving institutional readiness in implementing digital governance. The study concludes that efforts to improve human resource capacity, enhance public outreach, and develop an integrated information system are essential to optimize e-government implementation and improve the quality, effectiveness, and responsiveness of public services in the digital era.

This study was motivated by the widespread use of Indonesian language that does not conform to standard linguistic rules in Instagram content created by adolescents aged 17–20 years. As a social media platform that emphasizes speed and self-expression, Instagram encourages users to employ slang, nonstandard abbreviations, code-mixing, and various other forms of language deviation. This study aims to analyze the forms of Indonesian language errors found in adolescents’ Instagram content and to identify the factors contributing to these errors. The research employed a descriptive qualitative approach using content analysis. Data were collected through questionnaires distributed to 37 respondents and through an analysis of their language use habits on Instagram. The findings reveal that the most dominant forms of language errors include letter repetition to emphasize emotion (78.3%), nonstandard abbreviations (56.7%), code-mixing between Indonesian and foreign languages (45.9%), and the use of slang (45.9%). The main factors influencing the use of nonstandard language are the desire to appear relaxed and informal (86.5%), the need for fast and practical communication (67.6%), and the influence of peer groups and social media trends. Nevertheless, most respondents are aware that these habits may negatively affect their formal language skills. This study highlights the importance of digital language literacy to help adolescents use Indonesian appropriately according to different communication contexts.

This study examines young people’s perceptions of the Free Nutritious Meal Program (Makan Bergizi Gratis/MBG) and its impact on public trust in the government. The MBG program is one of the Indonesian government’s strategic policies aimed at improving nutritional quality, particularly for students, while supporting social welfare and human resource development toward Indonesia Emas 2045. In the digital era, social media plays a significant role in shaping public opinion, especially among Generation Z, who actively consume and disseminate information through online platforms. This research employed a qualitative descriptive approach with in-depth interviews, social media observations, and documentation studies as data collection techniques. The participants consisted of young people aged 18–25 years in Bandar Lampung selected through purposive sampling. The findings indicate that most informants perceive the MBG program positively because it is considered relevant to community needs, particularly in improving children’s nutrition and supporting economically vulnerable groups. However, public trust in the government remains conditional due to concerns regarding transparency, uneven distribution, food quality, and program supervision. The study also reveals that young people distinguish between support for the program itself and trust in the government as an institution. Positive perceptions of the program can increase political trust, but implementation weaknesses may reduce confidence in government performance. Therefore, transparency, consistency, and effective public communication are essential factors in strengthening public trust and ensuring the sustainability of the MBG program.

The rapid development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has transformed various sectors of human life, including church ministry and religious organizational management. This study aims to analyze Christian leadership ethics in the use of AI within modern church ministry. The research employs a qualitative descriptive method through theological literature review and analysis of recent studies concerning digital technology and pastoral ministry. The findings indicate that AI provides significant benefits for church administration, digital communication, congregational data management, and online evangelism. Nevertheless, ethical challenges also emerge, such as the weakening of pastoral relationships, data privacy concerns, algorithmic bias, and the risk of dehumanization in ministry practices. From a Christian theological perspective, ministry is fundamentally relational and incarnational, reflecting the example of Jesus Christ who ministered through personal presence, compassion, and direct interaction with people. Therefore, AI should be understood as a supportive instrument rather than a substitute for spiritual authority and pastoral presence. Christian leadership in the digital age must be grounded in integrity, transparency, spiritual discernment, and respect for human dignity as the image of God (imago Dei). This study contributes to the development of ethical guidelines for churches in utilizing AI responsibly while maintaining theological integrity and Christian spiritual values.

Social media has become the primary source of information for society, but easy access is not accompanied by adequate digital literacy skills. this study aims to analyze the phenomenon of “asking before reading” as a challenge of literacy on social media. the method used is a literature study with secondary data from scientific journal references and screenshots of user comments on instagram, tiktok, and facebook showing behavior of asking questions without reading the caption first. the results show that the habit of asking before reading is triggered by instant culture, dominance of visual content, and low reading interest. the impacts are decreased critical thinking skills, increased risk of misunderstanding, and spread of unverified information. the conclusion of this study confirms that the phenomenon reflects low digital literacy in society. the proposed solutions are improving digital literacy by encouraging users to read post descriptions, the role of educational institutions in instilling critical thinking from an early age, and clearer content from content creators and platform managers.

Reproductive health is an aspect of health that still requires serious attention, particularly for women of reproductive age. Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a hormonal disorder with a prevalence of 3.4% among women worldwide, yet it often goes undetected due to a lack of awareness. This community service activity aims to increase the knowledge of women of reproductive age regarding menstruation, PCOS, and the importance of early detection through an educational webinar titled “Hormone Talk: Exploring Menstruation, PCOS, and the Importance of Early Detection.” The event was held online via the Zoom Meeting platform on December 13, 2025, and was attended by over 100 participants, the majority of whom were female students. The evaluation method utilized pre-tests and post-tests analyzed using a Dependent T-test. The results showed a significant increase in the average knowledge score from 64.78 (pre-test) to 79.67 (post-test), with a difference of 14.89 points and a p-value of 0.000. This demonstrates that reproductive health educational webinars are effective in enhancing participants’ knowledge. It is hoped that this activity can serve as a model for sustainable digital-based health promotion interventions in efforts to improve reproductive health literacy among Indonesian women.

This study aims to analyze the implementation of educational marketing management in increasing the interest of new students at MTs Negeri 3 Bekasi City, with a focus on the application of the POAC management functions (Planning, Organizing, Actuating, Controlling). The study employs a descriptive qualitative approach using a case study design. Primary data were obtained through observation and in-depth interviews with the Madrasah Principal and the Vice Principal for Student Affairs, who serves as the Chair of the PMBM Committee, while secondary data were sourced from relevant journals and literature. The research results indicate that marketing planning was carried out systematically through the formation of the PMBM committee, academic, religious, and Quranic literacy selection processes, as well as the utilization of digital and print media. Organization involved all school components in a structured manner, while promotional activities highlighted students’ academic, non-academic, and moral achievements through social media and word of mouth. This strategy proved effective, as evidenced by the number of applicants far exceeding the admission quota. However, implementation still faces challenges related to funding, limited land availability, and public perceptions regarding the difficulty of the selection process, which are addressed through routine evaluations and collaboration with government agencies.

Technological developments have brought significant changes to various aspects of human life, including church life. These changes also impact intergenerational relationships within the congregation. This paper aims to examine the challenges faced by church leaders at GEKISIA Depok in serving Generation X, Millennials, and Generation Z, and to examine the relevance of the theological principle of Romans 12:2 in addressing these challenges. Ultimately, the author observes that differences in generational characteristics influence communication patterns, ministry models, and congregational expectations of church leadership. Therefore, church leaders in the digital age are required to be adaptive, transformative, and remain rooted in biblical values. Romans 12:2 serves as an important theological foundation for Christian leaders to experience a renewed mindset so they can serve according to God's will without being influenced by worldly patterns. Furthermore, the challenge of cross-generational leadership is not merely practical in nature, but also theological. Each generation brings different experiences, values, and perspectives in understanding faith and spirituality. Generation X tends to value institutional stability and loyalty, while Millennials are more oriented toward authentic experience and community. Generation Z, having grown up entirely in the digital age, communicates and expresses faith in ways that differ greatly from previous generations. In this context, church leaders are called to become bridges between generations, rather than simply following trends or rigidly preserving tradition.

This study explores the urgency of halal certification for food and beverage Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (UMKM) in Indonesia following the implementation of Law Number 33 of 2014. Despite the enactment of regulations, various obstacles such as low halal literacy and bureaucratic complexity remain major challenges. This study aims to analyze the strategic role of Islamic religious instructors as agents of empowerment and da'wah (Islamic outreach) in assisting UMKM in their halal certification process. Using qualitative methods with a library research approach, data was collected through a search of relevant literature and regulations, then analyzed using content analysis techniques. The study results indicate that Islamic religious instructors perform four crucial functions: literacy educators, access facilitators, motivators of Islamic economics, and policy mediators. Optimizing these roles can be achieved through capacity building, digitalization of mentoring, and integration of community networks. The study concludes that strengthening the role of instructors is essential to accelerate the implementation of mandatory halal certification and strengthen the Islamic economic ecosystem in Indonesia.

The internationalization of micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) has become a strategic issue in addressing global economic dynamics, particularly within the framework of the Global Value Chain (GVC) in the digital age. Although Indonesian MSMEs have great potential to support the national economy, their level of involvement in the global value chain remains relatively limited. This study aims to analyze the challenges and strategies for the internationalization of Indonesian MSMEs within the GVC in the digital age. The study employs a qualitative approach using a case study design, along with thematic analysis and value chain analysis techniques. The findings indicate that MSMEs are already involved in the GVC across various stages of the value chain—from raw material processing to global distribution—yet they continue to face numerous challenges, such as technological limitations, human resource competencies, production capacity, and international distribution networks. On the other hand, digitalization has proven to be a key factor in expanding access to global markets through the use of digital platforms. An effective internationalization strategy requires the integration of product innovation based on local resources, the utilization of digital technology, and the strengthening of global business networks. This study contributes to integrating the perspectives of GVCs, digitalization, and SME internationalization strategies into a comprehensive analytical framework, and provides practical implications for SME actors and policymakers in enhancing competitiveness in the global market

The swift proliferation of short-video-centric social media, notably TikTok, has revolutionized the educational landscape by facilitating novel methods of knowledge production, dissemination, and interpretation. This phenomenon denotes a transition in media and signifies an epistemological transformation in educational practices within the digital age. This study seeks to analyze the representation and interpretation of knowledge in TikTok educational content using a qualitative methodology grounded in an interpretive case study framework. Data were gathered via digital participant observation, comprehensive interviews, and document analysis involving 12 participants, comprising educational content creators and active TikTok users in higher education settings. Thematic data analysis was performed utilizing a Multimodal Critical Discourse Analysis framework to elucidate the interplay among visual, verbal, and auditory components in the construction of meaning. The results show three main patterns: the conflict between quick understanding and deep knowledge, the importance of emotional multimodal experiences in learning, and the negotiation of knowledge authority in changing digital spaces. These results indicate that learning via TikTok encompasses not only cognitive aspects but also intricate emotional, aesthetic, and social dimensions. This study theoretically enhances multimodal discourse analysis by integrating users' subjective experiences, while practically informing the advancement of critical digital literacy and the design of social media-based learning. Moreover, this study facilitates additional investigation into algorithmic dynamics, digital identity, and the evolution of learning methodologies within platform-centric contexts.

 The quality of digital system services in the ship clearance process is closely related to the work effectiveness of shipping agency companies. The advancement of port operational services is influenced by the system’s ability to provide convenience, speed, accuracy, and service integration for users. The system used in the ship clearance process must be able to meet user needs and support inter-agency coordination so that ship services can operate more effectively and efficiently. This study aims to analyze the performance level and the level of user importance regarding the implementation of the Single Submission Pengangkut System in the ship clearance process at PT Trans Cakrawala Perkasa. The research employed a descriptive quantitative approach with a sample of 30 respondents consisting of ship agents involved in the clearance process. Data were collected through questionnaires, observations, and literature studies. The data were analyzed using validity tests, reliability tests, conformity level analysis, and the Importance Performance Analysis (IPA) method. The results indicate that the SSM Pengangkut System has made a positive contribution to accelerating document processing, facilitating system usage, increasing work productivity, and supporting coordination among related agencies. Based on the IPA Cartesian diagram, one indicator was identified as a priority for improvement, while other indicators were categorized as maintain performance, low priority, and high performance with lower importance levels. Overall, the implementation of the Single Submission Pengangkut System has been running quite well; however, continuous evaluation and improvement are still needed to optimize the ship clearance process further.

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the e-monev application at the Jambi Province Public Works and Public Housing Agency (PUPR) and to identify the constraints encountered in its management. The research used a qualitative descriptive method with data collection through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation involving seven informants directly engaged in the application's management and operation. The analysis framework adopts the e-government success element theory by Indrajit (2002), comprising three dimensions: Support, Capacity, and Value. The findings reveal that the Support dimension is already strong, marked by leadership commitment, annual socialization and training, clear policy directives, and effective inter-unit coordination. In the Capacity dimension, human resource competence is generally adequate; however, technical constraints such as network instability, system slowdowns during concurrent access, and dependency on external programmers remain significant challenges. The Value dimension confirms that the e-monev application provides positive contributions to reporting efficiency, real-time monitoring, and data-based decision-making. Nevertheless, the overall effectiveness has not yet reached the optimal level due to persistent technical and infrastructure constraints. This study is expected to serve as an empirical basis for improving the quality of digital monitoring and evaluation systems in regional government agencies.

. Digital transformation in public administration has become a strategic agenda in modern bureaucratic reform aimed at improving effectiveness, efficiency, transparency, and the quality of public services. This study aims to analyze the digital transformation of public administration through a comparative study between Indonesia and South Korea, particularly in the implementation of digital government. The research employs a qualitative method with a comparative study approach and is supported by library research through the collection of secondary data from scientific journals, international institutional reports, government policy documents, and relevant previous studies. Data analysis was conducted descriptively and comparatively using the approaches of Digital Era Governance (DEG), Institutional Theory, New Public Management (NPM), and Socio-Technical Systems Theory. The findings indicate that South Korea has successfully developed an integrated digital government through consistent national policies, strong data interoperability, high bureaucratic capacity, adaptive organizational culture, and equitable digital infrastructure development. Meanwhile, Indonesia is still in the transition stage from e-government to digital government and faces various challenges, such as inter-agency system fragmentation, low data interoperability, unequal digital infrastructure, limited civil servant competencies, and bureaucratic resistance to change. This study concludes that the success of digital transformation in public administration is determined more by institutional strength and bureaucratic reform than merely by technology adoption. Therefore, Indonesia needs to position digital transformation as a comprehensive state reform agenda in order to create a modern, responsive, and public service-oriented government.
