Village websites currently generally only provide information in the form of an interface for users, such as village profiles, potential areas, population data, and current news. However, the majority are not yet equipped with Application Programming Interface (API) support that allows for flexible and automated data integration and exchange. This is a challenge when dynamic access is needed by third-party systems, such as public service platforms, mobile applications, or local government information systems, which require real-time and accurate synchronization of population data. The project aims to implement a RESTful API that can be accessed securely, efficiently, and easily understood by developers to retrieve villagers' data. The development of the system is carried out using the Agile method, which supports rapid iteration and periodic evaluation to ensure that each feature functions optimally according to the needs of users and field conditions. This Agile method is applied in several sprints that include the stages of needs planning, designing the API endpoint structure, coding, documentation, and testing of the integration and security of the system as a whole. The results of the implementation show that the API successfully retrieves data directly from the village database, and presents it in a JSON format that is compatible for use by both frontend and third-party systems. This API supports pagination features for efficient access to large amounts of data, and is equipped with Basic Authentication to keep data access secure from being abused. With this API, the village website not only becomes a static information medium, but also transforms into a digital service platform that is open for cross-system integration. This supports the development of a more modern, efficient, sustainable, and collaborative village information system in the future, so that public services can be significantly improved.

The presence of a strong trademark is also a determining factor for the success of a business in today's digital era. An attractive and professional brand design can differentiate the products or services sold from what competitors offer. However, not all business actors, especially enterpreneur activists, have sufficient knowledge and resources to create a quality brand design. Therefore, it is essential to enhance the capabilities of entrepreneurs in consistently producing appealing and effective brand designs. One practical approach is to promote the use of user-friendly graphic design tools, such as Canva, through awareness and outreach programs. With Canva, enterpreneur players can create professional brand designs without the need to have in-depth graphic design skills. The primary aim of this study is to enhance entrepreneurs' skills in designing appealing and professional trademarks by promoting the use of the Canva application through socialization efforts. This research is anticipated to offer the following advantages:: First, increasing the knowledge of enterpreneur about the importance of trademark design. Second, increasing the ability of enterpreneur to use Canva's basic features in creating brand designs. Third, helping enterpreneur in creating brand designs that match the identity of their business profile. This research was conducted in several stages: preparation, implementation, and evaluation. The expected output of this research is an increase in the capacity of enterpreneur stakeholders. After attending the training, the ability of enterpreneur players in Bedug Village, Pangka Sub-district, Tegal Regency to create brand designs increased significantly. New brand designs: new brand designs that are more attractive and professional were created by the trainee enterpreneur. Scientific Publication: The research results can be published in the form of scientific papers or seminar reports to enrich the repertoire of science.

Slums are one of the biggest challenges in sustainable urban development. In the midst of the government's efforts to run a program to handle slum organizations, the issue of miscarriage after physical intervention often goes unnoticed. This study aims to stop the slum management program in Tegal Sari Mandala II Village, with a Mixed Methods approach that combines linear multiple quantitative regression analysis and a qualitative descriptive approach.The results show that community participation has a significant effect on poverty programs, while infra-structure quality has not shown a statistically strong relationship. Qualitative findings support these results, where residents feel more attached to the programs they have followed in the past. Meanwhile, a number of infrastructures that are not in accordance with needs are considered less effective in supporting sustainability. This study concludes that the desire of the program is not only determined by technical aspects, but also by social, institutional, and cultural factors that are intertwined. Strategic recommendations include strengthening participation, improving design based on local needs, and integration with spatial policies.

The digital era has revolutionized educational systems, making digital literacy a vital competency for the 21st century. As such, educational administration plays a pivotal role in driving digital transformation within schools. This study used a qualitative approach with a multi-case study design, examining 20 secondary schools to assess how effective educational administration practices contribute to the sustainable implementation of digital literacy programs. Data were gathered through in-depth interviews with 60 educational administrators, participant observations, and the analysis of policy documents. The findings reveal that educational administration, when proactive, collaborative, and data-driven, significantly boosts student digital literacy. In fact, schools employing these practices experienced an improvement in digital literacy by up to 65% within two years of program implementation. The success of these programs was largely attributed to key factors such as visionary leadership, strategic allocation of resources, continuous teacher capacity development, and robust monitoring systems. Additionally, the research highlights the importance of a comprehensive approach to digital literacy, where educational leaders understand the interconnections between various administrative functions and their impact on digital education. This includes integrating strategic planning, operational execution, developmental efforts, evaluation processes, and collaborative work between teachers and administrators. In response to these findings, the study proposes the Integrated Digital Literacy Administration Model (MALDT). This model offers a framework that can be adapted by educational institutions to enhance learning quality in the digital age. It emphasizes the need for a holistic approach to digital literacy administration, combining leadership vision with operational efficiency and continuous professional development. Ultimately, the adoption of such a model can help schools foster an environment where digital literacy is embedded into the core educational experience, ensuring students are adequately prepared for the challenges of the digital era.
