This research is based on the awareness that music functions both as an artistic expression and as a cosmological representation embedded within the cultural structures of traditional societies. The Siwaluh Jabu traditional house in Lingga Village, North Sumatra, was selected as the object of study to examine the relationship between music and the cosmological views of the Karo people. The purpose of this study is to reveal the meaning of music within cultural practices and rituals carried out in the Siwaluh Jabu House, as well as to explore musical elements that reflect the continuity between humans, ancestors, and the universe. This research employs a qualitative approach, with data collected through literature review, participatory observation, and interviews with traditional leaders and local artists. The data analysis was conducted through data reduction, classification, data presentation, and drawing of conclusion. The results of the study show that music both the vocal mantra “ole…ah…ole” and the Gendang Lima Sendalanen ensemble contains symbolic values that interpret wood as a natural element, sustain social connections between groups, and reinforce the social system embedded in the spatial organization of the Siwaluh Jabu traditional house. Music serves as a medium of spiritual and cultural communication that unites the physical and metaphysical dimensions of life. The implications of this research enrich the perspective of music culture and emphasize the importance of preserving traditional music as a local knowledge system integrated with the cosmology of the Karo people.

The evaluation stage shows that the entire budget is absorbed 100% without any discrepancy, and all physical activities are achieved according to target. However, community participation in the evaluation is still limited. Supporting factors for success include information transparency, community participation, and accurate priority setting. The main inhibiting factor was the weather, with no administrative or accountability issues identified. Overall, Village Fund Allocation (ADD) management in Plosokandang Village reflects the principles of transparency, accountability, and effective village development.

This study aims to examine the relationship between text and melody in Bamboo Flute Music in Depati VII District. This research is qualitative with a descriptive content analysis approach. The research object is Bamboo Flute Music, with data collected through literature study, observation, interviews, and documentation. The research analyzed the data by examining the form, melody, and the relationship between text and melody in the song "Bungo di Laman". The results show that there are 10 kinds of rhythmic forms in this song, both of which are the development of previous forms and new formations. The flute melody in the tale "Bungo di Laman" is dominated by ascending melodic movement, where the melody tends to rise to a higher pitch. The descending movement in the flute melody is only used as a bridge to the next ascending movement. The same applies to the vocal melody in the tale, where the ascending movement is dominant and the descending movement only serves as a bridge. The pronunciation style of the story "Bungo di Laman" is predominantly syllabic, with 316 syllables pronounced syllabically.

This study aims to design and analyze a more effective Islamic Religious Education (IRE) learning model by integrating humanistic principles with Islamic spirituality. This integration is important because traditional IRE learning has largely focused on cognitive mastery, while affective and spiritual dimensions have not been developed optimally. Using a descriptive qualitative method with a literature study approach, this research reviews books, academic journals, and previous studies relevant to humanistic and spiritual-based learning. Content analysis is then employed to identify thematic patterns that explain how both approaches can strengthen one another within the IRE learning process. The findings reveal that integrating humanistic and spiritual elements results in deeper, more reflective, and transformative learning experiences. The humanistic approach allows students to develop self-awareness, value personal experiences, and fulfill emotional needs, whereas Islamic spirituality reinforces the values of tawhid, moral character, and divine consciousness. Teachers play a crucial role as facilitators who guide students through learning experiences that combine humanistic empathy and Islamic values. Authentic assessment methods such as reflection journals, moral portfolios, and behavioral observations are used to evaluate student development. Overall, this study concludes that an IRE learning design grounded in both humanistic and spiritual approaches can foster intellectually capable, emotionally mature, and spiritually grounded learners who are well-prepared to face the challenges of the digital era.

This study aims to describe the main factors causing children in Perumaan Village, East Alok District to drop out of school, as well as the efforts made to overcome this problem. A descriptive qualitative method was used. This research was conducted in Parumaan Village, East Alok District, from February 12 to February 28, 2025, because there are still children who drop out of school in Parumaan Village. The data sources in this study are primary and secondary data sources. Data was obtained through in-depth interviews, field observations, and documentation. After collection, the data was analyzed following these steps: Data Collection, Data Reduction, Data Presentation, Conclusion Drawing, and Verification.The results of the study show that the main causes of children dropping out of school can be divided into two factors, namely internal and external. Internal factors include lack of parental attention, economic conditions, and low interest in learning among children. Meanwhile, external factors include an unsupportive social environment, the influence of promiscuity, and low levels of parental education. These findings show that children tend to lose their educational direction when support from their families and surrounding environment is minimal. To address this issue, several efforts have been made, such as raising awareness about the importance of education by the village government, providing economic assistance such as scholarships and KIP (Indonesian Smart Card), and involving the community through mutual cooperation and mentoring. This study recommends strengthening collaboration between families, schools, the government, and the community to create a conducive and sustainable educational environment.

The rapid pace of housing development in Bogor has created a gap with the provision of formal infrastructure, which has encouraged the emergence of community-led self-help road initiatives. While capable of addressing urgent connectivity needs, these road formations often ignore essential design standards, particularly those related to circulation and environmental context. This study focuses on a specific challenge in Bogor, namely high rainfall ("force of nature"), which contributes to road degradation, causing flooding, and reducing user comfort. Adopting a descriptive qualitative method, this study analyzes the existing self-help access conditions through field observations and a literature review focusing on Water Sensitive Urban Design (WSUD) principles and circulation theory. Field findings confirm that the current design fails to manage surface runoff, resulting in low infiltration and the emergence of functional space conflicts (e.g., for parking and social activities). As a solution, this study proposes an integrated design demonstration that combines porous materials and micro-drainage to manage the force of nature, thereby improving circulation comfort and supporting active living for residents.

The results indicate an increase in residents’ involvement in reforestation, productive home-garden utilization, and stronger collaboration between village authorities, farmer groups, Islamic educational institutions, and local community organizations. Furthermore, the community began forming self-help groups to ensure sustainability, while Islamic-value-based environmental education successfully encouraged behavioral changes and early ecological awareness among children. These findings confirm that the ABCD approach is effective in enhancing community-based food security and environmental awareness.

The results showed a significant improvement in participants’ knowledge and skills in managing digital business accounts, producing engaging photo and video content, and utilizing marketplaces to expand their market reach. More than 80% of participants successfully created new business accounts and actively promoted their products online. This activity had a positive impact on improving digital literacy and local product marketing while strengthening the collaboration between higher education institutions and the community in developing the village economy.

The Kaharingan Hindu community represents an indigenous Dayak group residing in Central Kalimantan, distributed across fourteen districts and municipalities. One of these communities is located in Parit Village, Cempaga Hulu Subdistrict, East Kotawaringin Regency. Following its integration into Hinduism in 1980, various forms of religious guidance have been implemented; however, these efforts have not been fully optimal due to the vast geographical conditions of Central Kalimantan. This community service program conducted in Parit Village aims to strengthen the community’s śraddhā (faith) and jñāna (knowledge and understanding) of Hindu teachings. The program employed an outreach and educational approach focused on reinforcing the fundamental principles of Hinduism. Its implementation involved collaborative engagement with several partners, including the Ministry of Religious Affairs of the Republic of Indonesia (East Kotawaringin Office), the Kaharingan Hindu Council of Parit Village, and the active participation of the local Hindu community. The results indicate that many community members still lack comprehensive understanding of Hindu doctrines, partly due to limited access to sacred texts. Through the outreach activities, participants demonstrated improved comprehension of basic Hindu teachings, as evidenced by their ability to articulate and elaborate on the materials presented during the discussions.

This community service activity was carried out by the Real Work Lecture (KKN) team of the State Islamic University of North Sumatra (UINSU) with the aim of developing ecoprint products as an environmentally friendly innovation as well as a means of empowering creative MSMEs in the environment of SD 040479 Perteguhen, Simpang Empat District, Karo Regency. This program was motivated by the low level of public awareness of the importance of sustainable natural resource management and the limited skills in utilizing the potential of the environment to create products with economic value. This activity is also expected to provide an educational experience for elementary school students in learning about environmentally friendly concepts and creative entrepreneurship from an early age. The activity was held on August 9, 2025, involving participants from among students, teachers, and the community around the school. The implementation method included four stages, namely (1) socialization and environmental education on the basic principles of ecoprint, (2) technical training in ecoprint making, (3) hands-on practice using natural materials, and (4) evaluation and reflection on the results of the work. The technique used was the method of soaking tote bags in hot water at a temperature of 80–90°C using natural materials such as teak leaves, guava leaves, cassava leaves, and hibiscus flowers available around the school. The results of the activity showed that the hot water soaking technique produced soft natural motifs, harmonious color gradations, and leaf patterns
