Honesty (ṣidq) is a fundamental moral value in Islam that serves as the foundation for personal integrity and social ethics. In the current era of globalization and growing materialistic culture, this value faces serious challenges as societal orientation shifts from moral virtue to economic achievement and social image. This study employs a narrative review method, analyzing recent literature on moral education, Islamic ethics, and contemporary social dynamics. The findings reveal that honesty functions not only as a personal virtue but also as a social force that strengthens public trust and national stability. However, the global wave of materialism has weakened the internalization of ṣidq, especially among younger generations. Restoring honesty as the moral identity of the nation requires synergy among character-based education, spiritual reinforcement, and public policies that promote transparency and integrity. The recontextualization of honesty through Islamic spiritual principles and Rokeach’s value theory offers a path toward moral recovery for Indonesian society amid the global challenges of the 21st century.

Electronics learning in higher education continues to face various challenges, particularly in the provision of interactive learning media capable of concretely and engagingly visualizing the form, characteristics, and working principles of electronic components. The limitations of conventional learning media often result in abstract learning processes, which in turn lead to a low level of student understanding of basic electronics concepts. This study aims to develop the AMPERE as an innovative and technologically relevant interactive learning medium. The research employed R&D approach using the Borg & Gall model, which includes the stages of needs analysis, design, product development, validity testing, and limited implementation. The AMPERE application was developed using marker based AR technology, in which a smartphone camera detects markers to display and interact with 3D electronic component objects in real time. The results indicate that the AMPERE application achieved a high level of validity, with a score of 0.88 from subject-matter experts and 0.84 from media experts, and was therefore deemed suitable for use as a learning medium. The small-group trial results showed a practicality level of 82.07%, while the practicality test during the implementation stage reached 85.67%. These findings demonstrate that AMPERE is effective in enhancing learning interactivity and assisting students in understanding the form, function, and working principles of electronic components through smartphone-based digital visualization. Theoretically, these results are consistent with constructivist learning theory, which emphasizes active knowledge construction through direct experience and interaction with learning objects.

This research examines the disproportionate allocation of legal responsibility between doctors and nurses in Indonesia’s health care system and proposes measures to reorganize accountability in a more fair and proportional way. The issue addressed stems from shortcomings in existing regulations, which have not yet ensured legal certainty or balanced legal protection for both professions in clinical practice. The study uses a normative juridical method, applying both statutory and conceptual approaches. The statutory approach reviews laws and regulations that govern professional authority and legal liability of doctors and nurses, while the conceptual approach analyzes legal principles, doctrines, and concepts related to professional responsibility in health services. Legal materials are collected through library research, including primary, secondary, and tertiary legal sources, and are analyzed using qualitative descriptive methods. The results show that although statutory provisions formally regulate the distribution of authority and responsibility between doctors and nurses, there are still normative uncertainties, overlapping regulations, and legal gaps. These issues may lead to an unequal burden of legal responsibility, particularly in cases involving medical errors or negligence. Such conditions weaken legal protection for nurses and can negatively affect the quality of health care delivery. The study concludes that regulatory reform is needed to clarify legal responsibility in accordance with professional authority and to implement a more just and proportional system of accountability. The findings are expected to enrich health law studies and provide guidance for policymakers in developing a fairer legal responsibility framework for health professionals.  

This study investigates the integration of computational thinking (CT) principles with adaptive curricula to enhance problem-solving skills in undergraduate programming education. Traditional programming curricula often emphasize syntax and basic concepts, neglecting critical problem-solving strategies. The adaptive curriculum framework used in this study combines CT skills such as decomposition, pattern recognition, abstraction, and algorithmic thinking with personalized learning experiences. A mixed-method approach, combining qualitative and quantitative research, was employed to assess the effectiveness of this integrated approach. The results show significant improvements in students' problem-solving abilities, conceptual understanding, and engagement compared to a control group following a traditional curriculum. Students in the experimental group, which received the adaptive curriculum, demonstrated better performance in applying algorithms and debugging code. Additionally, students expressed higher levels of engagement and motivation, suggesting that the personalized learning environment fostered greater academic involvement. The study highlights the importance of integrating CT principles with adaptive learning frameworks to create a more inclusive and effective learning environment that accommodates diverse learning needs. The findings suggest that adaptive curricula can bridge gaps in traditional education by providing personalized support and ensuring that students progress at their own pace. This approach is especially beneficial for programming education, where both conceptual understanding and practical problem-solving skills are critical for success. Future research should explore the long-term impact of adaptive learning frameworks and investigate how these technologies can be integrated with traditional teaching methods to maximize their effectiveness.

The Halal Management Sistem (HMS) has often been positioned as an administrative compliance tool that focuses on regulatory and certification requirements. This approach has the potential to simplify the meaning of halal by overlooking the inherent values, especially in the context of Muslim businesses. This study aims to interpret the understanding of the Halal Management Sistem not only as an administrative compliance mechanism, but also as an expression of worship and spiritual commitment in business practices. This study uses a qualitative approach through a literature review of scientific articles, books, and relevant publications discussing halal management, Islamic business ethics, and the perspectives of business actors. The results of the study show that the HMS is understood by business actors as a manifestation of religious obedience integrated into economic activities, where the application of halal principles is seen as part of devotion to God and a form of moral responsibility in running a business. In this understanding, administrative compliance is positioned as an implication of spiritual awareness, not as the main objective of the sistem's implementation. The research findings also indicate that the spiritual meaning of SMH encourages consistency in halal practices and strengthens long-term business orientation. Conceptually, this study has implications for the development of halal management studies by placing the spiritual dimension as the main foundation in the implementation of the Halal Management Sistem, particularly in supporting sustainable and ethical business practices.

This study examines the criteria of disgraceful conduct in the dismissal mechanism of regional heads in Indonesia following Constitutional Court Decision No. 2/PUU-XX/2022. The decision underscores the necessity of a constitutional interpretation of the requirement “never having committed disgraceful conduct” in order to prevent abuse of power and political injustice in regional governance. Employing a normative legal research method, this study analyzes primary legal materials, including Constitutional Court decisions and statutory regulations, as well as secondary legal literature. The findings reveal that the notion of disgraceful conduct had previously functioned as a vague norm, enabling subjective and politically motivated interpretations, particularly by regional legislative bodies. The Constitutional Court, through its decision, transformed this open norm into a more limitative and objective standard by specifying concrete forms of conduct, such as gambling, intoxication, drug abuse, adultery, and other serious violations of decency. Furthermore, the Court emphasized that allegations of disgraceful conduct must be supported by clear, lawful, and verifiable evidence, in line with the principles of due process of law. This reformulation strengthens legal certainty, protects the political rights of elected regional heads, and preserves the stability of local governance. The study recommends legislative synchronization through amendments to the Regional Government Law and the issuance of judicial guidelines to ensure uniform standards of proof in dismissal proceedings, thereby reinforcing constitutional justice and the rule of law in Indonesia.

Equitable vaccine distribution is a global issue that has received increasing attention, especially since the increasing need for vaccines in the face of modern pandemics. This study aims to analyze the inequality in vaccine distribution and the factors influencing vaccine hesitancy through a descriptive qualitative approach, utilizing literature studies and supporting data in the form of graphs. The analysis results show that high-income countries have significantly greater access to vaccines than middle- and low-income countries, creating inequalities that impact public health protection. Furthermore, levels of vaccine hesitancy were found to vary across social groups, with adolescents being the group with the highest rate of rejection due to the influence of misinformation and low trust in health institutions. These findings confirm that the success of a vaccination program is determined not only by the availability of equitable distribution but also by public acceptance, which is influenced by social, psychological, and ethical factors. Overall, this study emphasizes the importance of applying bioethical principles such as justice, beneficence, and autonomy in formulating effective and inclusive vaccination policies.

Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) are the result of human thought that have economic and social value and play a significant role in encouraging creativity, technological innovation, and sustainable national development. IPR protection not only aims to provide legal certainty for creators and rights holders, but also serves as a strategic instrument in strengthening the creative economy. However, low public awareness of the importance of IPR protection and the gap between legal norms and practices in the field result in frequent violations of intellectual works. This study uses a normative-juridical approach combined with a participatory-educational approach, in accordance with the characteristics of community service activities in the legal field. This approach aims to integrate normative legal analysis with legal education activities for the community, thereby producing both conceptual understanding and practical benefits. The results of the activities show a significant increase in public understanding of the relationship between constitutional principles and IPR protection in Indonesia. Through educational activities and legal dialogues, it was revealed that the integration between constitutional principles and the IPR legal system has not been optimal, not only due to limited regulations, but also weak public legal awareness and the application of substantive justice as mandated by the 1945 Constitution. These findings emphasize the importance of integrating constitutional values ​​in the IPR protection system.

Global social inequality remains one of the fundamental challenges in the contemporary world economic system. The dominance of capitalist economic structures, which emphasize growth and capital accumulation, has proven effective in stimulating economic progress; however, it has simultaneously widened the gap between wealthy and disadvantaged groups at both national and global levels. Meanwhile, socialist economic systems that prioritize income equalization continue to face limitations related to efficiency and innovation. This article aims to examine the role of Islamic economics as an alternative economic framework capable of addressing the challenge of global social inequality. The study employs a qualitative descriptive approach through a literature review of classical and contemporary sources related to global economic systems. The findings indicate that Islamic economics offers a more balanced paradigm by integrating principles of distributive justice, ethical values, and social responsibility within economic activities. Instruments such as zakat, infaq, sadaqah, waqf, along with the prohibition of riba and other exploitative economic practices, serve as essential mechanisms for reducing social inequality. Therefore, Islamic economics holds significant potential as both a normative and practical solution for promoting sustainable global economic justice.

Digital transformation initiatives have become essential for organizations seeking to remain competitive in today’s rapidly evolving technological landscape. However, many organizations face challenges due to ineffective Information Systems (IS) governance, which hampers strategic decision-making and the successful execution of these initiatives. This study aims to develop an IS governance framework that enhances decision-making quality by aligning IT decisions with organizational goals during digital transformation efforts. The proposed framework addresses existing gaps in current IS governance models, offering a solution to common challenges such as inadequate governance structures, resource constraints, and misalignment between IT and business strategies. The framework was developed through a mixed-method approach, including conceptual framework development, expert consensus via the Delphi method, and organizational validation studies. Key findings reveal that the framework improves transparency in decision-making, enhances accountability for IT decisions, and ensures better alignment between IT strategies and organizational objectives.

The framework's strengths include its comprehensiveness and flexibility, though its application may face challenges in organizations with limited digital maturity or rigid governance structures. Future research directions include exploring the integration of emerging technologies into the framework and its applicability across different organizational contexts.

The policy of involving expatriates in the board of directors of State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs) has become a debated issue, particularly regarding its implications for corporate governance and national workforce interests. The main problem discussed in this article is how the policy of expatriate involvement in the board of directors of PT Garuda Indonesia is viewed from the perspective of Good Corporate Governance (GCG). This study aims to analyze the suitability of the policy with GCG principles and its implications for corporate governance and company performance. The research method used is a literature review by examining laws and regulations, academic journals, policy reports, and other relevant secondary sources. The analysis is conducted based on five main GCG principles, namely transparency, accountability, responsibility, independence, and fairness. The results show that the involvement of expatriates in the board of directors of PT Garuda Indonesia has the potential to strengthen corporate governance through the adoption of global managerial standards, improvement of institutional credibility, and acceleration of organizational transformation and efficiency. However, this policy also faces challenges, especially related to transparency in the selection process and the assurance of knowledge transfer to local human resources. It can be concluded that the expatriate involvement policy will provide optimal benefits if it is implemented consistently with GCG principles and accompanied by a strong commitment to strengthening local managerial capacity.

This study aims to analyze the implementation of gender-based public policy through the Child-Friendly School Program at SDN 01 Bendosari, Plantungan District, Kendal Regency. This research employed a descriptive qualitative approach using in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation as data collection techniques. Data analysis was conducted using the public policy implementation model proposed by George C. Edwards III, which emphasizes four key variables: communication, resources, implementers’ disposition, and bureaucratic structure. The findings reveal that the implementation of the Child-Friendly School policy at SDN 01 Bendosari has been carried out through an integrative approach by incorporating child-friendly principles into existing school programs and culture. Effective policy communication and positive implementers’ disposition, particularly among teachers and the school principal, have supported the implementation process. However, limited financial resources remain a major obstacle to fully optimizing the policy implementation. This study concludes that successful public policy implementation depends not only on regulatory frameworks but also on resource availability, implementers’ commitment, and institutional capacity to adapt policies to local conditions.

Free trade is one of the central issues in the dynamics of the global economy, sparking debates about the extent to which the state should be involved in economic activities. Each economic system holds a different perspective on the relationship between market mechanisms and state intervention. This article aims to analyze the concept of free trade and the role of the state from the perspective of various economic systems, namely liberal, socialist, mixed, and Islamic economic systems. The research method employed is a literature review, examining relevant sources such as books, scholarly journals, and other academic references. The findings indicate that the liberal economic system tends to emphasize market freedom with minimal state involvement, whereas the socialist system positions the state as the main regulator in trade. The mixed economic system seeks to balance the roles of the market and the state, while Islamic economics permits free trade as long as it is conducted in accordance with the principles of ethics, justice, and social responsibility. This article is expected to contribute academically to a better understanding of the differing approaches of economic systems toward free trade and the role of the state in addressing global economic challenges.
