The computer laboratory is an essential facility in higher education that requires efficient management of usage and environmental conditions to support the teaching and learning process. However, laboratory management at the Kalimantan Business and Technology Institute is still carried out manually, including scheduling, room condition monitoring, and report creation, which is prone to errors and time-consuming. This study aims to develop an Internet of Things (IoT)-based laboratory monitoring system prototype to improve the effectiveness of computer laboratory management. The approach used is Research and Development (R&D) with a prototype development model, allowing for design adjustments based on user feedback iteratively. Data were collected through observations, interviews, and document studies related to laboratory conditions and analyzed to determine the main system features, such as temperature and humidity monitoring, scheduling, and report generation. The results of the study show that the developed prototype can structure the laboratory workflow, provide real-time monitoring, facilitate schedule management, and simplify report preparation. This prototype is expected to serve as a foundation for developing a more comprehensive application, improving data accuracy, time efficiency, and the quality of laboratory management.

Administrative capacity has long been recognized as a fundamental determinant of governmental effectiveness, yet its role in executive service delivery, particularly in relation to government protocol functions, remains conceptually underdeveloped in public administration scholarship. Existing studies on administrative capacity predominantly focus on policy formulation, implementation, and citizen-facing service delivery, while research on executive governance and executive support systems often treats internal support functions in aggregate terms. As a result, the specific contribution of protocol functions—as administrative, symbolic, and coordinative mechanisms that sustain executive leadership—has been largely overlooked. Addressing this gap, this literature review examines how administrative capacity operates within executive service delivery, with a particular emphasis on government protocol functions as an integral component of executive support and governance coordination. The primary objective of this article is to synthesize and integrate dispersed theoretical and empirical insights to reconceptualize protocol functions within the broader framework of Administrative Capacity Theory. Employing a narrative–integrative literature review approach, the study systematically selected and analyzed peer-reviewed journal articles from major academic databases published within the last five years. The literature was examined through thematic analysis and conceptual synthesis, guided by Administrative Capacity Theory as the core framework and complemented by perspectives on executive service delivery, institutional capacity, street-level bureaucracy, public service professionalism, and governance coordination. The review identifies recurring patterns indicating that effective executive service delivery depends on the interaction of individual-level capacities (professional competence, discretion, and ethics), organizational-level capacities (structures, procedures, and coordination routines), and system-level capacities (institutional arrangements and governance mechanisms).

Local governments manage substantial public resources under conditions of decentralization, fiscal complexity, and heightened accountability demands, making them particularly vulnerable to financial mismanagement and fraud. In this context, risk-based internal oversight has increasingly been promoted as a governance-oriented alternative to traditional compliance-based supervision. This literature review article examines how risk-based internal oversight is conceptualized, operationalized, and linked to fraud prevention and control in the management of local government finance. The study addresses a central problem in the existing literature: the fragmentation of analytical perspectives across risk-based internal auditing, fraud risk management, internal control systems, public financial management, and public accountability, which has limited a comprehensive understanding of how internal oversight contributes to safeguarding public funds. The primary objective of this article is to synthesize and integrate these strands of literature to clarify the role of risk-based internal oversight as a systemic governance mechanism for fraud prevention and control at the subnational level. Methodologically, the study employs an integrative literature review approach, drawing on peer-reviewed journal articles and authoritative institutional publications indexed in major academic databases over the past decade. A structured search, screening, and thematic synthesis process was applied to identify patterns, convergences, and divergences across conceptual, empirical, and policy-oriented studies. The findings indicate a clear shift from compliance-oriented inspection toward risk-based internal oversight that prioritizes high-risk financial processes—particularly procurement, grants, and asset management—where fraud risks are most pronounced. The synthesis further shows that effective fraud prevention depends on the alignment of risk-based oversight with fraud risk management practices, robust internal control systems (including SPIP).

Consular services have become a critical site of state intervention in the governance of international labor migration, particularly for migrant-sending countries such as Indonesia whose citizens depend on overseas missions for administrative protection and access to public services abroad. Despite the growing importance of consular institutions in safeguarding migrant workers’ rights and welfare, existing scholarship remains fragmented, offering limited conceptual integration of how administrative capacity shapes institutional readiness in cross-border public service delivery. Addressing this gap, this article presents a structured narrative–integrative literature review that synthesizes international peer-reviewed studies on administrative capacity, policy capacity, consular services, and migrant worker protection published in the last five years. Drawing on Administrative Capacity Theory as the core framework, complemented by Public Service Theory, Policy Implementation Theory, Street-Level Bureaucracy, and Institutional Theory, the review systematically analyzes how different dimensions of capacity configure institutional readiness in consular services. The findings reveal that institutional readiness emerges from the interaction of four interrelated dimensions: human resource capacity, organizational and procedural capacity, institutional and coordination capacity, and resource and infrastructure capacity. Rather than functioning as isolated determinants, these dimensions collectively shape how consular institutions translate formal mandates into service outcomes under conditions of transnational governance, legal pluralism, and fluctuating demand. The review further demonstrates that frontline discretion, coordination gaps, procedural rigidity, and uneven resource allocation are recurrent patterns across the literature, underscoring the dynamic and practice-based nature of administrative capacity in consular contexts. Theoretically, this article contributes to public administration scholarship by extending administrative capacity frameworks into the underexplored domain of cross-border public services and by integrating previously segmented theoretical perspectives into a coherent conceptual synthesis. By reframing consular services as institutionally embedded public service systems rather than solely diplomatic functions, the article advances understanding of institutional readiness in migrant worker protection and provides a robust analytical foundation for future empirical and comparative research in international public administration.

Fractures are conditions where there is a separation or rupture in the continuity of the bone structure, caused by excessive pressure that the bone cannot withstand. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the incidence of fractures is expected to increase with the growing number of vehicles. The productive age group is particularly vulnerable to injury due to accidents. A lack of knowledge about fractures and First Aid methods can exacerbate the situation. This study aims to determine the impact of fracture education and First Aid simulation methods on the knowledge of students at SMA N 1 Lhokseumawe. The research used a quantitative quasi-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest design, involving 91 students. The instrument used was a knowledge questionnaire. The results showed that before the education and simulation, 44 respondents (48.4%) had a poor knowledge category, while after the education and simulation, 84 respondents (93.4%) were in the good category. The Wilcoxon test resulted in a P-value of 0.000, indicating a significant impact. The conclusion of this study is that fracture education and First Aid simulation methods are effective in improving students' knowledge about fractures and First Aid.

Community service is one of the pillars of the Tri Dharma of Higher Education aimed at implementing academic knowledge in real community life. One form of educational community service is scientific writing training for students. This activity was motivated by the low ability of Madrasah Aliyah students to write scientific papers, particularly in understanding academic structure, scientific language, citation techniques, and reference writing. This community service activity aimed to improve the knowledge, skills, and academic attitudes of students at Madrasah Aliyah Nurul Falah Sangiang, Tangerang City, in writing scientific papers in accordance with academic standards. The method used was a participatory and educational approach through interactive lectures, discussions, and writing practice with mentoring. The results showed an improvement in students’ understanding of scientific writing concepts and structure, enhanced skills in developing outlines and introductory sections, and the growth of positive academic attitudes such as honesty and responsibility in academic writing. This activity contributes significantly to improving students’ academic literacy and supports the development of a sustainable academic culture within the madrasah environment.

Prompt injection has emerged as a critical security threat for Large Language Models (LLMs), exploiting their inability to separate instructions from data within application contexts reliably. This paper provides a structured review of current attack vectors, including direct and indirect prompt injection, and highlights the limitations of existing defenses, with particular attention to the fragility of Known-Answer Detection (KAD) against adaptive attacks such as DataFlip. To address these gaps, we propose a novel, hybrid, multi-layered detection framework that operates in real-time. The architecture integrates heuristic pre-filtering for rapid elimination of obvious threats, semantic analysis using fine-tuned transformer embeddings for detecting obfuscated prompts, and behavioral pattern recognition to capture subtle manipulations that evade earlier layers. Our hybrid model achieved an accuracy of 0.974, precision of 1.000, recall of 0.950, and an F1 score of 0.974, indicating strong and balanced detection performance. Unlike prior siloed defenses, the framework proposes coverage across input, semantic, and behavioral dimensions. This layered approach offers a resilient and practical defense, advancing the state of security for LLM-integrated applications.

This study analyzes the mangakkai’ ceremony in the Aluk To Dolo tradition in the villages of Suppiran, Mesakada, and Salisali (SMS), Toraja, as a rite of passage that has religious, symbolic, and social meanings. The study aims to explain the structure of the mangakkai’ ritual based on Victor Turner's theory of liminality and to examine its relevance to contemporary human relations. The method used is qualitative research with a literature study approach enriched by field interviews with Aluk To Dolo figures. The results of the study show that mangakkai’ consists of three main stages, namely pre-liminal (lao ma’tundan) as a phase of separation, liminal (passurusan and mata kandean) as a space for community formation, and post-liminal (ma’palulangngan) as reintegration and refinement of relations with Puang Matua. This rite not only guides the soul of the deceased to a transcendent destination, but also strengthens solidarity, mutual cooperation, and the transmission of values between generations. In a modern context marked by individualism and social fragmentation, mangakkai’ presents a model of relationships based on togetherness, empathy, and collective responsibility. Thus, this ritual has anthropological and ethical significance as a source of reflection for the formation of more humanistic and communal human relationships.

Students with deaf disabilities often have difficulty understanding verbal instruction, but have significant advantages in visual and motor aspects. This service activity aims to apply multisensory methods through Suminagashi craft art training (cloth marbling) to improve students' fine motor skills and creativity at SLB B Yakut Purwokerto. The implementation method uses a descriptive qualitative approach with a "see-learn-do" strategy involving 20 high school students. The learning process integrates visual stimulation through structured demonstrations and tactile stimulation through the exploration of material textures. The results of the activity showed that the multisensory approach was effective in bridging the barriers of deaf students with disabilities in communicating due to hearing limitations. Students demonstrate a high level of visual focus and are able to replicate marble motif making techniques with precision without relying on complex verbal explanations. The combination of cue instructions and direct touch experiences has been proven to minimize miscommunication and improve understanding of abstract concepts of the material. This activity recommends the use of visual-tactile strategies as an adaptive inclusive learning method to support the vocational independence of deaf people.          

Responsibility accounting is a management accounting system that emphasizes the distribution of authority and responsibility at each responsibility center to support the control and evaluation of organizational performance. There are five requirements for implementing responsibility accounting: organizational structure, budgeting, separation of controllable and uncontrollable costs, account code classification, and responsibility accounting reports. This study aims to understand the implementation of responsibility accounting in performance assessment at KSP Kopdit Hiro Heling. The method used in this study is qualitative descriptive, with data collection techniques through observation, interviews, and documentation. The results show that the implementation of responsibility accounting at KSP Kopdit Hiro Heling is still not effective based on the five indicators of responsibility accounting. This condition impacts the suboptimal performance assessment of responsibility centers.

Career selection is an important process for students at Darussalam Gontor University (UNIDA) because it influences their academic development and future employment. However, many UNIDA students experience difficulties in determining suitable careers due to a lack of understanding of their psychological characteristics. This study aims to build a Decision Support System (DSS) for career recommendations for UNIDA students based on psychological test results using the Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) method. The psychological data used are non-clinical test results collected through a structured questionnaire from six respondents and converted into numerical scores. The research stages include determining criteria and weights, compiling a decision matrix, normalization process, calculating preference values, and ranking career alternatives using SAW. The career alternatives used consist of academics, corporate professionals, entrepreneurs, managers, and social/public services. The results show that the managerial career alternative obtained the highest preference value of 0.861, followed by entrepreneurs at 0.824, corporate professionals at 0.778, social/public services at 0.737, and academics at 0.703. These findings demonstrate that the SAW method is capable of providing objective and systematic career recommendations based on the psychological profiles of UNIDA students. This research is expected to assist UNIDA students and academics in making more informed career decisions tailored to individual characteristics

Dermoid cyst is a benign congenital choristoma frequently found in the periocular region, particularly in children. It results from ectodermal tissue sequestration along embryonic fusion lines. Although generally benign and slow-growing, dermoid cysts may cause cosmetic deformity, mechanical ptosis, or visual disturbance if left untreated. A 4-year-old child presented with a painless, slowly enlarging mass on the upper eyelid that had been noticed since early childhood. Physical examination revealed a well-circumscribed, firm, non-tender mass without signs of inflammation. Visual acuity was within normal limits, and no proptosis was observed. Clinical findings were consistent with a superficial eyelid dermoid cyst. The patient underwent complete surgical excision under general anesthesia. Intraoperatively, the cyst was removed intact without rupture. Histopathological examination confirmed a dermoid cyst characterized by keratinized stratified squamous epithelium lining with adnexal skin structures. Postoperative recovery was uneventful, with good cosmetic outcome and no recurrence during follow-up. Eyelid dermoid cyst can be diagnosed clinically through careful history taking and physical examination. Complete surgical excision is the definitive treatment and provides excellent functional and cosmetic outcomes. Early management is recommended to prevent potential complications and to achieve optimal results.

This study aims to analyze the financial performance of KSP Kopdit Obor Mas using the PEARLS method (Protection, Effective Financial Structure, Asset Quality, Rates of Return and Cost, Liquidity, Signs of Growth) and to examine its relevance within the Resource Based View (RBV) framework. The research employed a descriptive method with both qualitative and quantitative approaches. Data were collected through observation, interviews, documentation, and cooperative financial reports from the Annual Member Meeting (RAT) for the period 2022–2024. The results indicate that the Protection aspect is categorized as healthy, as the risk reserve ratio is sufficient to cover delinquent loans. The Rates of Return and Cost aspect also shows good performance due to stable operational cost efficiency. However, weaknesses were found in the Effective Financial Structure, Asset Quality, and Signs of Growth aspects, particularly in the declining membership growth. From the RBV perspective, the cooperative possesses valuable and rare resources in the form of strong risk management capability and operational efficiency, but it has not fully developed a strong capital structure and asset quality to achieve sustainable competitive advantage. Therefore, the cooperative should improve credit management, strengthen institutional capital, and enhance membership growth to maintain long-term financial sustainability.

This study aims to analyze the actualization of Pancasila values in the Articles of Association and Bylaws (AD/ART) of the Dharma Wanita Persatuan (DWP) in Panggungrejo District, Blitar Regency. The study used a qualitative approach with a phenomenological design to understand the experiences and views of informants regarding the application of Pancasila values in organizational practice. Data were collected through structured interviews, field observations, organizational documentation, and validated using triangulation of sources, techniques, and time. The results show that material values are reflected in operational discipline, mutual cooperation, and transparency in resource management; vital values are manifested through the AD/ART as guidelines for work and the implementation of educational, social, and empowerment programs; while moral values are evident through communication ethics, the practice of deliberation and consensus, and strengthening solidarity among members. These findings confirm that the AD/ART functions as a connecting instrument that integrates material, vital, and moral values, thereby creating an organizational structure that aligns with Pancasila. This study has important implications for strengthening the character and ethics of organizations based on national values at the local level.

This study aims to analyze the strategies of tahfidz teachers in improving students’ Qur’anic memorization quality through a literature review approach. Memorization quality is not merely measured by the quantity of verses memorized, but also includes accuracy of recitation, fluency, consistency in muroja’ah (revision), and long-term memory retention. This research employed a literature review method by examining national and international journal articles as well as relevant academic books published between 2020 and 2025. Data were analyzed using content analysis techniques to identify themes, patterns, and research gaps related to teachers’ strategies in tahfidz learning. The findings reveal that effective tahfidz teaching strategies can be classified into four main aspects: (1) structured and consistent implementation of repetition (tikrar), (2) reinforcement of muroja’ah and periodic evaluation, (3) motivational strategies and character development, and (4) innovative learning approaches integrating collaboration and educational technology. The tikrar method is proven effective in strengthening memorization retention when supported by systematic program planning. Furthermore, intrinsic motivation, a conducive learning environment, and varied instructional methods significantly contribute to maintaining students’ memorization stability. In conclusion, improving the quality of Qur’anic memorization depends not only on repetition frequency but also on the integration of pedagogical strategies, affective-spiritual approaches, and instructional innovation. This study provides a conceptual contribution to the development of more comprehensive and sustainable tahfidz learning strategies.

An internal control system is a system consisting of an organizational structure, plans, methods, and coordinated procedures that help safeguard company assets, improve operational effectiveness and efficiency, and support the implementation of regulations established by management.This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the implementation of internal control systems in cash management through the cash opname mechanism at KSP Kopdit Tuke Jung Head Office Nelle. Data collection in this study used interview, observation, and documentation methods. This study uses a qualitative descriptive approach referring to the COSO (Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission) components, which consist of five components, namely control environment, risk assessment, control activities, information and communication, and monitoring. The research results show that the effectiveness of the internal control system in cash management through cash opname has been implemented but has not fully met the five components of the internal control system according to COSO. The elements that have not been fulfilled are control activities, information and communication, and monitoring. Nevertheless, some components of the internal control system implemented at KSP Kopdit Tuke Jung have been operating effectively.

The maritime education sector faces complex challenges in preparing competent seafarers amid the rapid advancement of digital technology. This study investigates the effect of artificial intelligence-based simulations and AI-based competency assessments on competency achievement levels among nautical cadets at Indonesian maritime training institutions. The research design employed a convergent parallel mixed-methods approach, integrating quantitative and qualitative methods to gain a comprehensive understanding. Quantitative data were collected from 150 cadets using a validated questionnaire. In comparison, qualitative data were obtained through in-depth semi-structured interviews with fifteen instructors and ten cadets. Multiple regression analysis revealed that the research model significantly predicted cadet competency achievement. The findings indicate that AI-based assessments exert a stronger influence than AI simulations in improving competency. The qualitative exploration highlighted adaptive feedback mechanisms and personalized learning pathways as critical success factors in implementing learning technologies. This study provides empirical evidence for maritime institutions to prioritize strategic investments in AI-based assessment systems while maintaining a human-centered pedagogy. The research contribution lies in integrating fourth industrial revolution technologies into the training, certification, and watchkeeping standards compliance framework for seafarers, thereby strengthening Indonesia's maritime education ecosystem and aligning it with international standards.

Maternal Mortality Rate (MMR) is a critical indicator for evaluating maternal health programs, and insufficient knowledge of pregnancy danger signs remains a significant factor in preventable maternal complications and mortality. This issue is particularly prevalent among third-trimester pregnant women. Health education has proven to be an effective strategy for enhancing maternal knowledge, promoting early detection of obstetric emergencies, and supporting timely decision-making. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of health education on improving knowledge of pregnancy danger signs among third-trimester pregnant women in Nunkurus Village. A pre-experimental study with a one-group pre-test–post-test design was conducted, involving 42 third-trimester pregnant women, with 40 selected through purposive sampling. Structured questionnaires were used to collect primary data, and the Wilcoxon signed-rank test was employed to analyze the knowledge differences before and after the intervention. Results showed a statistically significant increase in knowledge after the health education intervention (p-value = 0.000; p < 0.05). In conclusion, health education significantly enhances knowledge of pregnancy danger signs among third-trimester pregnant women. Strengthening community-level educational interventions can help in early detection of pregnancy complications and contribute to reducing maternal morbidity and mortality.
