This study aims to determine the effect of implementing differentiated learning on improving students' literacy skills in the Indonesian language subject, Chapter 3. Differentiated learning is an approach that considers differences in methods, materials, and assessments based on each student's initial understanding and characteristics. The learning process begins with explaining the objectives, observing students' initial understanding through pre-assessment or questionnaires, exploring learning needs, facilitating learning activities according to students' needs, and ends with reflection and planning for further learning. This research was conducted in Grade 1 of SDN Latsari Tuban with a total of 28 students. The method used was classroom action research (CAR), carried out in two cycles. The results showed an improvement in students' literacy skills, both in terms of the average score and the percentage of mastery learning achievement, although the increase was not very significant. These findings highlight the importance of adapting the learning process to students' initial understanding and individual characteristics to support more effective literacy development.

Global climate change has caused changes in rainfall patterns in various regions, including North Jayapura District, Papua Province. This study aims to analyze changes in rainfall characteristics in the region over the past two decades (2004–2023) using GSMaP satellite data. The analysis was carried out on the average monthly rainfall, annual rainfall, decadal trends, hourly rainfall intensity frequency, and daily rainfall duration. The results showed a decrease in annual rainfall accumulation in the 2014–2023 decades compared to the previous decade (2004–2013), with a difference of around 5,000 mm. The seasonal rainfall pattern still shows concentration in January to March, but with a significant decrease in these wet months. In addition, there was an increase in the frequency of short-duration rain (<1 hour) and moderate to very heavy rain, although the frequency was still relatively small. The high variability of annual rainfall also indicates an increasingly large climate. These findings indicate that North Jayapura District faces the risk of increasing extreme rainfall events and decreasing water availability in the long term. Therefore, adaptation efforts are needed through improving early warning systems, conservation of air catchment areas, and integration of satellite data and field observations in air resource management planning.

This study aims to analyze the impact of TikTok usage on the politeness behavior of elementary school students. Using the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method, this article examines various previous studies related to the topic. The findings indicate that TikTok usage has a significant influence on students' behavior, particularly in terms of politeness. Although there are some positive effects, such as enhanced creativity, self-confidence, and cognitive abilities, the negative impacts are more dominant. Students tend to show a decline in polite behavior, such as the use of harsh language, lack of respect for parents and teachers, and reduced responsibility towards school assignments. High intensity of TikTok usage is one of the main factors contributing to the development of such deviant behavior. Therefore, the role of teachers and parents is crucial in supervising, setting examples, and guiding students to use social media wisely in order to uphold character and moral values.

The development of the Toba Caldera Geopark as a national priority tourism destination is part of the government’s efforts to drive regional economic growth, improve community welfare, and strengthen Indonesia’s position in sustainable tourism. However, its implementation presents significant challenges in balancing economic development, environmental sustainability, and social justice, particularly for indigenous communities around the area. This study aims to analyze the impact of the Toba Caldera Geopark development policy on the environment and local indigenous communities. A multidisciplinary approach was employed, combining qualitative methods through in-depth interviews and participatory observations, along with quantitative data from surveys and official secondary sources. The results indicate potential conflicts between tourism infrastructure development and nature conservation, including environmental degradation and the erosion of local cultural values. Additionally, there is a risk of marginalization of indigenous communities in terms of access to natural resources and their involvement in decision-making processes. Therefore, this study recommends the need for more inclusive and sustainable policies that place indigenous communities at the center of geopark management. Active participation of local communities, recognition of customary land rights, and development approaches based on local wisdom are essential to achieving equitable, sustainable, and environmentally responsible development of the Toba Caldera Geopark.

This study aims to analyze and evaluate the impact of the implementation of PSAK No. 69 (Biological Assets) on market performance, with company performance acting as a mediating variable, in agricultural sector companies listed in Indonesia. PSAK No. 69 was adopted to improve transparency and reliability in the financial reporting of biological assets, which are a significant component in the agricultural industry. The research adopts a quantitative approach, utilizing secondary data derived from the annual financial reports of companies and stock price information accessed via the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) and the official websites of relevant companies for the period of 2018–2023.The study investigates the relationship between the intensity of biological assets and company performance, as measured by Return on Equity (ROE), as well as the relationship between company performance and market performance, as measured by Stock Return. The analysis results indicate that the intensity of biological assets has a significant positive impact on ROE. However, the direct effect of biological asset intensity on Stock Return is not statistically significant. Nevertheless, the mediation test reveals that ROE has a significant positive effect on Stock Return, thereby confirming the mediating role of ROE in the relationship between biological asset intensity and Stock Return.These findings imply that the implementation of PSAK No. 69 indirectly affects market performance through its influence on company performance. This highlights the importance of financial performance as a transmission channel in understanding the market implications of accounting regulation changes. The study provides useful insights for investors, regulators, and other stakeholders in evaluating the financial and market consequences of biological asset accounting standards in the agricultural sector.
