This study aims to analyze hematocrit values ​​using a micro method with capillary blood samples in pregnant women with anemia at the Sidodadi Kisaran Barat Community Health Center. This study is a descriptive study with a cross-sectional approach involving 15 pregnant women as respondents. Data collection was carried out through hematocrit laboratory examinations and data collection of respondent characteristics. The results showed that 60% of respondents had hematocrit levels below normal values, while 40% of respondents had hematocrit levels within normal limits. Low hematocrit levels in pregnant women are influenced by several factors, including age, education level, employment status, and level of knowledge about anemia during pregnancy. This condition has the potential to increase the risk of pregnancy complications if not optimally managed. Therefore, it is recommended that health workers continue to increase educational efforts regarding anemia prevention, the importance of regular pregnancy check-ups, and encourage pregnant women to maintain a balanced nutritional consumption pattern and adequate iron intake to support maternal and fetal health.

The transformation of the post-pandemic education system has crystallized online learning as a permanent component, with parents assuming an unprecedented instructional role at the elementary level, particularly at Madrasah Ibtidaiyah (MI). This qualitative case study aims to analyze in depth the dynamics and implications of the role of these parents during the transition period. Data was collected through in-depth interviews with parents, students, and teachers from two MIs in Blora, enriched by observation and analysis of communication documents. The findings of the study reveal three crucial things: first, there is a transformation of the role of parents into "substitute teachers" which creates a significant psychological burden due to the gap between the demands of the role and pedagogical capacity. Second, the communication pattern between schools and parents is still one-way and administrative, and has not built a collaborative three-way partnership by involving students. Third, the quality of parental assistance is very diverse and highly dependent on their digital literacy capacity and educational background, which directly affects the development of students' self-regulated learning. This study concludes that the effectiveness of parental roles is determined by psycho-educational support, the quality of communication channels, and the level of personal capacity, so policy implications must move towards a differentiated and empowerment-oriented approach.

ABSTRACT Background: Pregnancy complications are one of the causes of morbidity and mortality in women. Data from the 2017 Indonesian Demographic and Health Survey (SDKI) showed that 28% of pregnant women in Indonesia are at risk of experiencing complications during pregnancy. Preeclampsia is a condition characterized by the onset of hypertension followed by organ dysfunction either with or without proteinuria at a gestational age above 20 weeks. Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine the characteristics and outcomes of neonates born to mothers with preeclampsia. Method: This type of research is a quantitative descriptive study using secondary data and using a total sampling of 261 medical records. Results: The results of the study were as follows: preeclampsia occurs mostly in young adults 73.95%, Primigravida 60.15%, Islam 50.50%, working mothers 62.45%, secondary education 80.07%, and first marital status 76.62%. The description of neonatal outcomes in mothers giving birth with preeclampsia was obtained with neonatal outcomes in good condition, namely 47.14% born at term gestational age with 43.67% non-LBW conditions, experiencing asphyxia 37.94% and being treated without respiratory support 65.52%. Conclusion: the outcomes of neonates born to mothers with preeclampsia quite often experience asphyxia. Early detection, prevention and treatment of complications, especially in cases of preeclampsia, are necessary so that neonatal outcomes can be maintained without complications and produce a good level of health for both mothers giving birth and newborns.

Measurement is a fundamental domain of mathematics that connects formal mathematical concepts with everyday experiences. Despite its practical relevance, students often experience persistent difficulties in understanding measurement conceptually, tending to approach it as a procedural activity rather than as a process of reasoning about quantities, units, and comparisons. These challenges indicate that learning measurement is influenced not only by individual cognitive factors but also by the social dynamics that shape classroom learning environments. This study aims to examine classroom social dynamics in learning measurement by providing empirical evidence from contextual learning situations. This study employed a qualitative research approach to explore how social interaction, scaffolding, and participation mediate students’ understanding of measurement in contextual learning environments. Data were collected through classroom observations, video recordings of learning activities, analysis of students’ written work, and interviews with selected students and the teacher. Contextual measurement tasks were designed to encourage collaboration, dialogue, and justification, enabling the examination of student–student and teacher–student interactions as they naturally occurred in the classroom. Data analysis was conducted iteratively to identify patterns of interaction, forms of scaffolding, and students’ learning progression within the Zone of Proximal Development. The findings reveal that students initially engaged with measurement tasks in a predominantly procedural manner, with limited conceptual understanding and minimal peer interaction. After the implementation of contextual learning situations, classroom social dynamics changed substantially. Students became more actively involved in discussion, collaborative problem-solving, and collective meaning-making. Peer interaction supported the articulation and refinement of students’ reasoning, while teacher scaffolding guided learning by extending students’ thinking without providing direct solutions. These social processes facilitated students’ movement from their actual level of understanding toward higher levels of conceptual competence within the Zone of Proximal Development. The study further shows that contextual learning tasks alone are insufficient to promote meaningful understanding unless they are supported by productive social interaction and adaptive scaffolding. Conceptual understanding of measurement emerged through socially mediated processes rather than through task completion alone. This study contributes to mathematics education research by emphasizing the central role of classroom social dynamics in contextual learning and by offering insights into how interaction and scaffolding can be orchestrated to support students’ conceptual understanding of measurement.

The development of technology in the digital era has brought significant changes to global education systems, including in Indonesia. Digital transformation encourages learning models that are more flexible, interactive, and focused on 21st-century competencies. However, this progress also presents various challenges, particularly related to moral degradation among youth, unequal access to technology, and low digital literacy among teachers and students. This study aims to analyze character education models from a global perspective and evaluate the challenges and strategies for their implementation in Indonesia in the digital era. Using a qualitative research method with a library research approach, data were obtained from credible sources such as scientific journals, books, official reports, and national and international educational documents. The findings indicate that developed countries have successfully integrated technology into their curricula, teacher training, and educational policies, resulting in well- established digital learning ecosystems. In Indonesia, digitalization in education has grown rapidly, especially since the pandemic, but still faces obstacles such as limited infrastructure, varied levels of digital competence among teachers, and a lack of integration of digital pedagogy. In addition, student readiness and access inequality in frontier, outermost, and disadvantaged regions (3T) present further challenges in applying global education models
