Effective learning involves active student involvement. The PAIKEM (Active, Innovative, Creative, Effective, and Enjoyable Learning) model emphasizes activeness, creativity, and a fun learning atmosphere. In this model, students are invited to be directly involved in the learning process, either through discussions, questions and answers, or group work that facilitate the development of their social and cognitive skills. This article aims to examine the application of the PAIKEM learning model in improving student learning activities through a literature review of ten scientific journals indexed by Google Scholar. The results show that PAIKEM increases participation in discussions, courage to ask questions, group collaboration, and learning motivation. In addition, this model also facilitates the development of students' critical and creative thinking skills, creating a fun and challenging learning atmosphere. The implementation of PAIKEM in learning has a positive impact on improving overall student learning outcomes. Thus, the PAIKEM learning model can be an effective alternative for teachers to create more active, meaningful learning, and oriented towards the development of student competencies as a whole.

Islamic financing has become an alternative for employees of strategic partner institutions who require fast and flexible financial solutions. However, participation remains low due to suboptimal promotion and price perceptions. This study aims to analyze the influence of promotion and price on employee financing decisions, both directly, indirectly, and in total. The method use was quantitative ex post facto with data collected through questionnaires from 40 respondents, and the analysis was conducted using SEM-PLS with the assistance of SmartPLS 4.0. The results indicate that promotion and price have a positive and significant effect on financing decisions, both directly and indirectly. Directly, promotion affects financing decisions with a coefficient of 0.442 (t = 2.121; p = 0.034), while price shows a coefficient of 0.445 (t = 2.040; p = 0.041). Indirectly, promotion influences financing decisions through price with a coefficient of 0.381 (t = 1.979; p = 0.048). In total, promotion and price strongly influence financing decisions, with coefficients of 0.823 (t = 15.541; p = 0.000) for promotion and 0.445 (t = 2.040; p = 0.041) for price. These findings emphasize that intensive promotion and competitive pricing can significantly enhance the financing decisions of employees at strategic partner institutions of PT. BPRS Fajar Sejahtera Bali.

Collaborative governance is a decision-making approach that brings together multiple stakeholders to work toward a shared objective. This study aims to describe the collaborative governance process in poverty alleviation through the Tasik Bageur Program in Tasikmalaya City. Poverty in the city is a multidimensional issue that affects social, economic, and environmental aspects of community life. In response, the Tasikmalaya City Government initiated this program as a collaborative effort involving government institutions, private sector actors, and academic organizations. The program is implemented every Wednesday and is designed to foster cooperation and mutual support in addressing poverty-related needs.Although the program has succeeded in attracting participation from several private and academic actors, this study identifies a major challenge: the number of poor residents remains significantly higher than the number of collaborating partners. This imbalance limits the amount and diversity of assistance provided and reduces the program’s overall effectiveness.This research employs a qualitative descriptive approach, with data collected through observations, interviews, and document analysis. The findings indicate that the collaborative process within the Tasik Bageur Program has not yet reached optimal implementation. Limited understanding and low awareness among private-sector actors hinder broader participation. As a result, the gap between community needs and the available collaborative resources remains substantial.

This study aimed to investigate the implementation of the BERDES (Bersih Desa) Program as an innovative strategy to foster environmental awareness among elementary school students at SD Negeri 2 Demulih. The program was designed using a participatory approach based on the Participatory Action Learning Sistem (PALS) method, which engaged students as active participants in identifying problems, planning, executing, and evaluating real actions in their school and local community environments. The research found that active student involvement in cleaning activities, waste management socialisation, and collective reflection significantly enhanced positive attitudes and social responsibility towards environmental conservation from an early age. Despite challenges such as limited frequency of program activities and common misconceptions about waste classification (organic, inorganic, residual), the BERDES program successfully served as an effective educational tool that embedded environmental care values among rural youth. The findings emphasised the critical role of schools as centres for environmental character education that combine theoretical knowledge with practical engagement to address real environmental issues.

The rise of online gambling has become an urgent social issue among South Tangerang adults, with Indonesia occupying the highest position as an online gambling user globally. This qualitative case study aims to explore the factors that cause adult involvement in online gambling, the recovery process of individuals experiencing addiction, and the role of local stakeholders in efforts to overcome it. The findings of the study revealed five main factors, namely the influence of friendships, situational pressure due to aggressive marketing, early winning experiences, misperceptions of winning strategies, and overconfidence in personal abilities. Recovery efforts undertaken by individuals include transformation of mindset, restriction of negative associations, elimination of access to online gambling platforms, increased spiritual engagement, and participation in productive activities. Meanwhile, stakeholders play a role through community education, collaboration with religious and community leaders, public awareness campaigns, and the provision of family counseling. However, this study found that there is no sustainable structured rehabilitation program. Therefore, this study recommends the development of comprehensive social intervention strategies involving professional psychological support and stronger enforcement of regulations to effectively address online gambling addiction.

This study explores the development of digital and storynomic-based tourism in Kamasan Tourism Village, Klungkung Regency, Bali. Kamasan is historically known as the center of classical Balinese wayang painting and traditional metal crafts such as gold, silver, and brass. Using a qualitative descriptive method through observation, interviews, and document studies, this research identifies the village’s cultural potential and formulates a sustainable tourism development model.

The implementation of the Standard Inpatient Class (KRIS) policy presents challenges for hospitals in ensuring equitable service delivery. Organizational readiness depends not only on adequate physical infrastructure but also on an adaptive organizational culture and strong clinical leadership to guide change. As a referral hospital, RS BM must ensure alignment across organizational components to meet KRIS standards sustainably. This study analyzes the influence of infrastructure quality and clinical leadership on organizational readiness for KRIS implementation, with organizational culture as an intervening variable. A quantitative cross-sectional design was used, involving 136 healthcare and medical personnel working in the inpatient units of RS Bhakti Mulia. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Square (SEM-PLS) to examine relationships among variables. Infrastructure quality and organizational culture significantly and positively affect organizational readiness. Clinical leadership, while not directly influencing readiness, has a significant positive effect on organizational culture. KRIS readiness at RS BM is shaped by infrastructure quality, clinical leadership, and organizational culture, with culture acting as the main mediator. The hospital shows strong readiness but still faces gaps in progress monitoring, inpatient room layout and privacy, leadership direction, and team participation. Strengthening monitoring mechanisms, improving room design according to KRIS standards, enhancing clinical leadership capacity, and fostering a collaborative organizational culture are essential to support comprehensive and sustainable KRIS implementation

This study is entitled "The Role of the Indonesian Transport Workers Federation (FSPTI) in Defending the Rights of Stevedoring Workers (TKBM) in Padangsidimpuan City". The background of this study is based on the importance of the existence of trade unions as a forum for workers' struggle in protecting and fighting for the normative rights of workers as guaranteed in Law Number 21 of 2000 concerning Workers' Unions/Labor Unions. In practice, many workers still face employment problems due to their weak bargaining position, lack of legal awareness, and low protection from employers. The purpose of this study is to determine and analyze the role of the FSPTI of Padangsidimpuan City in defending the rights of Stevedoring Workers, as well as to assess the effectiveness of the implementation of Law Number 21 of 2000 on the implementation of trade union functions at the regional level. The research method used is empirical juridical, with a qualitative approach that combines primary data through interviews, as well as secondary data through literature reviews of laws and regulations and related legal literature. The research results indicate that the Padangsidimpuan FSPTI plays a strategic role in advancing the interests of TKBM workers through advocacy, legal assistance, and negotiations with employers and local governments. However, the implementation of Law Number 21 of 2000 has not been fully effective due to challenges such as limited resources, low participant participation, and weak enforcement of labor laws. Overall, the FSPTI has made maximum efforts to advocate for the rights of TKBM workers, but further government support and organizational capacity building are needed to further optimize the union's function.

This study examines the role of social media, particularly Twitter, as a digital da’wah medium that is fast, interactive, and easily accessible to users. However, the extent to which the use of Twitter can enhance communication confidence among students still requires empirical validation. The focus of this research is to evaluate the effectiveness of Twitter use in influencing students’ communication abilities, especially in delivering da’wah messages. The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of Twitter usage on the communication confidence of students from the 2020 cohort. A quantitative approach was employed using a survey method. Data were collected through a structured, scale-based questionnaire, in accordance with the positivistic research paradigm that emphasizes objective and measurable hypothesis testing. The research population consisted of 62 students, from which 38 respondents were selected using proportionate stratified random sampling to ensure representation across all population strata. The findings reveal that the use of Twitter has a significant effect on the communication confidence of KPI IAI Al-Azis students from the 2020 cohort in delivering da’wah messages. Regression analysis results show a significance value of 0.050 < 0.05, with a Pearson correlation coefficient of 0.614, indicating a strong relationship. These results suggest that the more frequently students engage with Twitter, the greater their confidence in expressing and disseminating da’wah messages through various digital formats such as text, images, and videos. Twitter thus provides an expressive platform that fosters interaction, encourages participation, and strengthens students’ digital da’wah communication skills.

Handling cases of domestic violence (KDRT) requires an approach that not only focuses on sanctions for perpetrators, but also on the comprehensive recovery of victims. One of the appropriate methods is restorative justice, which is focused on restoring social relations, psychological recovery for the victim, and the participation of all parties involved in the process of resolving the case. In this context, lawyers play a strategic role, not only as defenders of the law, but also as facilitators of a just and supportive restorative process for victims. This study aims to analyze in depth the role of lawyers in the implementation of restorative justice in domestic violence cases, as well as identify the challenges and opportunities faced in practice. The applied approach includes normative juridical and sociological with qualitative data analysis. The findings indicate that lawyers play a crucial role in ensuring victims ' rights are protected, providing trauma-sensitive legal assistance, and encouraging restorative agreements that do not harm victims. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the capacity of lawyers, the development of more comprehensive regulations, and cooperation between sectors to support the implementation of restorative justice that is efficient and in favor of victims of domestic violence.

This article investigates how Islamic Education teachers implement their professional competence in managing learning at a public Islamic senior secondary school in North Maluku, Indonesia. Teacher competence is understood as a multidimensional construct that includes pedagogical, professional, personal, social, and spiritual dimensions and is expressed through lesson planning, classroom instruction, and learning assessment. Using a qualitative naturalistic design, data were collected through participant observation, in depth interviews with teachers, school leaders, and students, and documentation of lesson plans and institutional records. The findings show that lesson planning is carried out consistently and aligned with the curriculum, but the depth and creativity of plans vary between teachers, with some documents remaining largely administrative. In classroom instruction, teachers demonstrate sincere efforts to create a conducive learning climate, connect Islamic teachings with students daily lives, and encourage participation, although limited use of educational technology, differences in student engagement, and classroom management challenges constrain the consistency of instructional quality. Assessment practices employ diverse techniques to evaluate cognitive, affective, and psychomotor domains, yet the systematic use of formative and authentic assessment is still uneven due to workload and time pressures. Supporting factors include institutional backing through workshops and subject teacher forums, supportive leadership, adequate facilities, and teacher experience, while inhibiting factors comprise internal limitations in instructional design, external constraints related to technology and student diversity, and structural administrative demands. Overall, the study offers an integrated and context specific picture of how competence in learning management contributes to students understanding, motivation, and religious character.

This study investigates the implementation of the PAIKEM Gembrot model to enhance the literacy, numeracy, and creativity of fifth-grade students at UPT SDN Unjuruiya No. 45 in the Selayar Islands. Using a two-cycle classroom action research design—comprising planning, action, observation, and reflection—data were collected through tests, observations, and documentation to obtain comprehensive information on both learning processes and outcomes. In Cycle I, only 40% of students met the mastery criteria, largely due to their initial adjustment to the new learning approach and limited engagement in collaborative activities. After refining instructional strategies in Cycle II, including the use of more varied learning activities, concrete and contextual learning media, structured group discussions, and closer teacher guidance, student learning outcomes improved dramatically, with 100% of students achieving mastery. In addition, students showed increased participation, confidence, and motivation during classroom interactions. These results demonstrate that PAIKEM Gembrot effectively strengthens students’ abilities to comprehend information, apply numerical reasoning, and express creativity through active and meaningful learning experiences. Therefore, the PAIKEM Gembrot model serves as a promising and contextually relevant alternative for improving elementary science learning, particularly in island-based schools with limited educational resources.
