Modernization of education in Islamic boarding schools is an important need to maintain the relevance of learning in the digital era. Salafiyah Islamic boarding schools, which are synonymous with the traditional approach through the study of the Yellow Book, face the challenge of adapting technological developments without losing their scientific character. This research aims to develop a model of curriculum modernization through the integration of deep learning-based digital technology  to improve the effectiveness of learning and the quality of academic evaluation. The methods used include literature studies, observation of the learning process, and trial implementation of digital learning tools equipped with deep learning algorithms  for student ability analysis. The results of the study show that the application of deep learning technology  is able to speed up the competency mapping process, provide automatic feedback on reading and comprehension of classical texts, and assist teachers in monitoring the development of students more accurately. This integration also increases interest in learning and strengthens the mula curriculum system without shifting the traditional values of the Islamic boarding school. Thus, technology-based modernization can be a strategic solution to bridge the classical approach and the needs of 21st century learning in Salafi Islamic boarding schools.

Thus, the success of a da'wah institution in achieving its goals is highly dependent on the effectiveness of the leader's role in fostering and improving the quality of human resources.

This study discusses the evaluation of stakeholder development strategies in strengthening Islamic educational institutions. The study was conducted qualitatively with case studies in several Islamic educational institutions. The active involvement of stakeholders, such as principals, teachers, parents, government, and the community, has proven to be very influential in strengthening educational institutions. Collaborative and participatory strategies between institutions, the community, and the government are able to improve the quality of governance and the competitiveness of Islamic educational institutions. Determining potential stakeholders is a crucial process so that the main needs and expectations can be met optimally. Implementation of modern management, consensus, and routine monitoring and evaluation are the keys to the success of the institutional strengthening strategy. The main obstacle found is the lack of synergy and communication between stakeholders, so that discussion forums and routine training are needed. Transparency and accountability in the management of institutions are also important factors in building stakeholder trust. Continuous evaluation is needed to adjust the strategy to the dynamics of the needs of institutions and the community.

Qur’anic literacy plays a strategic role in shaping students’ character in Islamic educational institutions, particularly at TPQ and RTQ. This study aims to analyze how Qur’anic literacy contributes to strengthening children’s moral, spiritual, and social values in both formal and non-formal educational contexts. Employing a qualitative approach through an extensive literature review, the research synthesizes findings from previous studies on Qur’an-based character education, emphasizing the multidimensional nature of literacy that goes beyond reading and memorization. Qur’anic literacy encompasses understanding, internalizing, and applying Qur’anic teachings in daily behavior and decision-making processes. The results indicate that several interrelated factors influence this process, including habituation through regular practice, exemplary role models provided by parents, teachers, and community leaders, as well as the role of the social environment in reinforcing values. Furthermore, constructive implementation of rewards and sanctions is found to be effective in sustaining children’s motivation and discipline. Early habituation of reading, memorizing, and reflecting on the Qur’an has been proven to nurture positive traits such as responsibility, honesty, empathy, and social awareness. The study highlights that Qur’anic literacy is not only a pedagogical tool but also a holistic instrument of character formation that aligns spiritual values with modern educational challenges. These findings affirm the necessity of optimizing Qur’anic literacy programs through synergy among families, schools, and communities, ensuring that children grow into religious, virtuous, and resilient individuals. Ultimately, Qur’anic literacy serves as a foundation for building a generation that is intellectually capable, spiritually grounded, and socially responsible in contributing positively to society and addressing global challenges.

The development of the industrial sector has experienced significant acceleration due to the support of advancing technology and creative innovations from various companies. These innovations result from the collective contributions of all levels within a company's structure. This situation has intensified industrial competition, encouraging companies to continuously innovate in producing products that meet societal needs. Companies capable of creating high-quality products relevant to market demands have a greater chance of surviving and excelling in competition. For instance, between December 2023 and January 2024, a telecommunications company successfully produced 150,077,945 physical vouchers, with an average daily production of 2,543,694 units. During the production process, physical vouchers must meet specific criteria to ensure their quality. Quality control focuses not only on reducing product defect rates but also prioritizes customer satisfaction and loyalty. Six Sigma is one of the methodologies used to increase production process quality by reducing process variance and minimizing the number of defects in products or services. To facilitate the implementation of Six Sigma, the 5W+1H method can serve as a supplementary approach for problem identification and resolution. This technique involves systematically collecting information by answering the questions: What, Where, Who, When, Why, and How.

The issue of illegal parking in Batam City has become a serious concern, where unofficial parking attendants often collect fees from drivers without contributing to the local government. This situation not only disrupts order and security but also harms local revenue (PAD). Illegal parking practices create discomfort for the public and reduce trust in the existing parking system. Moreover, it hinders the optimization of PAD potential that should be generated from a well-organized and orderly parking system. This research aims to develop a technological solution to address this issue by creating an Android application called Fast Parking System. The application is designed to improve parking system efficiency through a fast, secure, and transparent cashless payment system. By using this application, drivers can pay for parking digitally, reducing direct interaction with parking attendants and minimizing the potential for illegal fees. The application is also integrated with an official surveillance system, allowing local authorities to monitor parking activities in real-time and ensure that parking fees are directed to the local treasury. It is expected that the implementation of Fast Parking System will create a more orderly, safe, and efficient parking system. With this solution, the local government can not only increase transparency but also optimize revenue from the parking sector. In addition, the application offers greater convenience for the public in using well-managed parking facilities. The findings from this research can serve as a useful reference for the Batam City Government and other cities in Indonesia facing similar illegal parking issues. It can also be used as a guideline for developing more efficient and modern technology-based parking systems.

The rapid development of information technology in the digital era has presented new challenges in the protection of personal data. The government as the state administrator has a constitutional obligation to protect the rights of citizens, including the right to privacy. This study aims to analyze the form of government legal accountability in ensuring the protection of people's personal data amidst the increasing threat of information leaks and protection. The research method used is normative juridical with a regulatory-legislative approach as well as case studies and also the opinions of relevant experts. The research findings show that although there are legal instruments such as Law Number 27 of 2022 concerning Personal Data Protection, the effectiveness of its implementation is still limited by a number of factors, including weak supervision. The results of the analysis show that although regulations such as the Personal Data Protection Law have been present, implementation in the field still faces various obstacles, both in terms of law enforcement, public digital literacy, and transparency of permits. The government has a responsibility not only normatively, but also factually to protect personal data through policies that favor the public interest. The government is required not only to form regulations, but also to carry out supervisory and enforcement functions effectively and accountably, and sustainably in order to protect fundamental rights. Therefore, the government's legal responsibility must be realized through consistent real actions in ensuring the security of personal data in the digital era.

This paper discusses legal protection for children as offenders in the juvenile justice system in Indonesia through a restorative justice approach. The study aims to analyze the effectiveness of this approach and the challenges faced in its implementation. The method used is normative juridical with a legislative and conceptual approach.
