Language is a means of communication between individuals and groups to convey ideas, concepts, or insights. Language can be expressed orally or in writing. Spoken language is temporary or contemporary, while written language is permanent. Spoken language is delivered without an intermediary media, whereas writing serves as an academic archive to ensure that the conveyed insights are preserved. Therefore, writing is done, for example, in encyclopedias, which contain collections of information about science, knowledge, history, arts, technology, and others in a broad and easily understandable manner. Writing books is very important in delivering accurate and easily understood information, so the use of language must adhere to linguistic rules. However, errors are often found that can disrupt clarity and accuracy of information. This research aims to identify types of sentence errors in the encyclopedia book titled “Islamic Kingdoms in Indonesia.” The study examines the use of language in accordance with linguistic rules using a qualitative method and a descriptive approach, analyzing data from various chapters in the book in depth. The results show errors in sentence structure, punctuation, and incorrect terminology, which can reduce the quality of the information. The benefit of this research is to provide recommendations for writers and publishers to improve the encyclopedia so that it becomes more informative and easier to understand, as well as to enhance the quality of scholarly works in the field of historiography.

This study aims to identify, analyze, and describe in depth the types of coordinating verbal phrases (FV) and subordinating verbal phrases (FV) contained in Detik.com news texts published in September 2025. Based on the fundamental role of language as a means of communication and social interaction (syntax), the object of research is focused on FV as a grammatical unit that has a verb core and functions as a predicate. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method with a syntactic theoretical approach. Data collection was carried out through the technique of listening and taking notes on Detik.com news texts, while data analysis was applied using the distribution method, where the determining tool comes from the linguistic elements themselves. The results of the study showed the discovery of a total of 13 verbal phrases divided into 3 coordinating FVs and 10 subordinating FVs (including the patterns Adv + V, V + Adv, V + Adj, and V + N). In detail, 3 coordinating FVs, 3 FVSs with Adv + V pattern, 2 FVSs with V + Adv pattern, 2 FVSs with V + Adj pattern, and 3 FVSs with V + N pattern were found. This finding emphasizes the importance of understanding phrase structure in maintaining clarity of meaning. This research is expected to improve readers' literacy understanding and serve as a scientific reference for similar linguistic studies.

This research is motivated by the importance of phrase analysis in syntactic studies for understanding the structure and relationships among components within Indonesian sentences. As grammatical units, phrases play a strategic role in shaping meaning, so they should be examined in terms of their constituent elements and their functions in the text. This study aims to analyze the use of adjectival phrases and prepositional phrases found in news texts. The method used is a qualitative descriptive method with observing and note-taking techniques, supported by a syntactic theoretical approach. The findings show that there are twenty-five adjectival phrases and sixty-eight prepositional phrases identified in five news texts published on Tempo.com in August 2025. “lebih cepat” is one example of an adjectival phrase found in the texts, while “ke arah pendemo” is an example of a prepositional phrase. These findings indicate that Indonesian phrases have systematic formation patterns and complementary syntactic functions. This research serves as a useful reference for the development of syntactic studies, linguistic learning, and the analysis of phrase usage in various language contexts.

Tobacco is a leading commodity that forms the foundation of the rural economy, but its cultivation faces challenges in the form of labour intensity, significant capital requirements, and farmers' lack of understanding of systematic cost structures. This study aims to analyse the production cost structure and evaluate the economic efficiency of tobacco farming managed by the Batu Daun Farmer Group in Batuan Village, Sumenep Regency. The research method used a qualitative descriptive approach with data collection through in-depth interviews with the head of the farmer group, field observations, and analysis of financial documents as secondary data. The analysis focused on identifying fixed and variable costs, as well as evaluating economic performance using the Break Even Point (BEP) and Revenue-Cost Ratio (R/C) indicators. The results showed that the total production cost was IDR 28,597,500 (fixed costs of IDR 3,450,000 and variable costs of IDR 25,147,500) for the production of 2,800 kg of tobacco with a gross income of IDR 70,000,000. The R/C ratio value of 2.44 (>1) indicates that the business is operating efficiently and profitably, while the BEP of 215.4 kg shows that actual production far exceeds the break-even point, meaning that the business is in an economically safe zone. The results of the study conclude that the tobacco farming business of the Batu Daun Farmer Group is economically viable and efficient.

The growth of the culinary industry requires small-scale food businesses to implement effective and efficient operational management. This study analyzes the optimization of operational management at Teen Canteen by examining the use of digital systems, staff performance, the implementation of Standard Operating Procedures (SOP), and operational constraints. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed, with data collected through semi-structured interviews and direct observation. The informant was purposively selected, namely the Head Bar, who is directly involved in daily operational activities. Data analysis was conducted using the Miles and Huberman model. The findings indicate that Teen Canteen’s operational management has not been optimally implemented due to the discontinuation of digital cashier systems, reliance on manual transaction and inventory records, and inconsistent SOP implementation. Although staff performance is generally adequate, issues related to discipline and service responsiveness remain. This study recommends reintroducing digital cashier systems and establishing written SOPs to improve operational effectiveness.

This study aims to describe the structure, syntactic function, and semantic role of the nominal clause in JawaPos.com news texts published in August 2025. By using a descriptive qualitative approach, this study applied syntactic analysis to explore how the nominal clause operates within the linguistic and contextual framework of media discourse. Data were collected from online news articles and analyzed using Indonesian syntactic and semantic theory. The results show that nominal clauses play a crucial role in constructing discourse structure and meaning through their syntactic functions as subjects, objects, complements, and adverbs. In semantics, nominal clauses perform various roles, including as agents, objects, recipients, and markers of condition or location. The pattern of nominal clause use reflects the concise, efficient, and communicative nature of journalistic language. The correlation between syntactic function and semantic role shows a cohesive relationship that enhances clarity and accuracy in conveying information. This study contributes to the development of syntactic and media linguistic research and serves as a valuable reference for journalists and language educators in promoting effective and ethical language use in journalism.

A qualitative descriptive method was applied using the observation and note-taking technique. The data were collected by examining, recording, and classifying different types of phrases, including nominal, verbal, adjectival, numerical, and adverbial phrases. The findings reveal that each type of phrase functions differently in shaping sentence meaning and enhancing the clarity of the writer’s arguments. Nominal and verbal phrases were found to dominate the texts, indicating their significant role in presenting ideas and logical reasoning. This research contributes to the development of syntactic studies and provides practical benefits for teachers and students in learning Indonesian, especially in mastering sentence structure and improving opinion writing skills. Furthermore, the study serves as a reference for future linguistic research within the context of digital media and education.

Exercise is a planned physical activity that not only contributes to physical fitness but also plays a significant role in maintaining and improving mental health. This study aims to explore the relationship between physical exercise and mental well-being among adolescents and university students with diverse backgrounds of physical activity. The research employs a qualitative approach using in-depth interviews with five informants, consisting of university students who engage in recreational exercise, recreational runners, middle- and long-distance runners, and a sprinter. Data collection was conducted in several public sports spaces in the city of Bandung, focusing on participants’ subjective experiences related to their psychological conditions before and after engaging in exercise. The findings indicate that all participants perceive exercise as an effective means of emotional regulation. Physical activity is consistently associated with improved mood, reduced stress, enhanced sleep quality, stable energy levels, and increased academic concentration and focus. In addition, exercise contributes to the development of self-confidence, self-efficacy, and self-control through structured routines. The social aspects of exercise, such as support from peers, communities, and coaches, were shown to strengthen the sustainability of physical activity while also providing essential emotional support for mental health. However, among competitive athletes, performance-related pressure was identified as a factor that may negatively affect psychological well-being, although this effect can be moderated by adequate social support. Overall, the findings of this study emphasize that exercise functions as an adaptive coping mechanism operating through biological, psychological, and social pathways, and highlight the importance of consistency and balance in physical activity to achieve optimal mental health benefits.  

Anemia in toddlers is a serious nutritional problem that impacts physical growth, cognitive development, and the child's immune system. This study aims to provide an overview of the level of knowledge, attitudes, and practices of parents in preventing anemia in toddlers. This quantitative study involved 50 respondents using a structured questionnaire instrument covering the domains of knowledge, attitudes, practices, and sources of health information. The results showed that respondents' knowledge was in the adequate category; although all respondents (100%) understood the negative impact of anemia on growth and intelligence, only 80% understood the technical definition and clinical symptoms accurately. In the attitude domain, respondents showed a very positive response (100%) to the importance of balanced nutrition and early prevention. Regarding the practical aspect, although regular visits to integrated health posts (Posyandu) reached 100%, the consistency of daily animal side dish intake remained at 80%. An interesting finding showed a shift in information sources, with social media (80%) dominating over direct exposure to information from health workers (40%). This study concluded that there is a gap between positive attitudes and consistent daily practices, and the need to optimize health education through digital media by medical personnel to reduce the incidence of anemia in toddlers.

Education is a conscious and planned effort to develop individual potential in order to create qualified human resources. Therefore, to achieve this goal effectively, strong management, good coordination, and solid solidarity among all educational elements are necessary. Solidarity among educators plays an important role in supporting the implementation of educational programs and achieving institutional goals. This study aims to determine the principal's methods and strategies for increasing solidarity among educators in the school environment. This study employed a qualitative research method, with data obtained through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation related to school activities. The validity of the data was ensured using triangulation techniques to maintain accuracy and credibility. The results show that educator solidarity at SMPIQu Al-Bahjah is implemented through routine deliberations, structured morning briefings, and regular weekly evaluations involving all educators. These activities are consistently carried out as a collective effort to achieve the school’s vision and mission. The implications of this research are expected to provide practical benefits for educational institutions in strengthening educator solidarity. In addition, this research can serve as a reference for other academics in developing and applying Emile Durkheim's structural-functional theory within educational management contexts.

Construction projects have unique characteristics that differ from other operational activities, as they are time-limited, involve a variety of resources, and require coordination across organizations. Occupational safety and health (K3) is an important element in protecting the workforce as well as the company's assets. This study aims to analyze the implementation of K3 policies in the construction project of PT. X. The research method uses a qualitative approach with case studies, while data analysis is carried out thematically based on the George C. Edwards III policy implementation model, which includes aspects of communication, resources, disposition, and bureaucratic structure. The results of the study show that the implementation of the K3 policy has been running but has not been optimal. The communication aspect has not been carried out regularly and continuously, resources are still limited with task trapping, the disposition of policy implementers is not evenly distributed, marked by low worker compliance, and the bureaucratic structure has not been supported by standardized SOPs and coordination between work units is still weak. This condition creates a gap between the K3 policy and the implementation in the field, so that it has the potential to increase the risk of work accidents and reduce the effectiveness of labor protection. This research emphasizes the need to strengthen communication, increase resources, implement commitment, and improve the bureaucratic structure to support the implementation of more effective K3 policies.

The study implies that continuous practice-based learning aligned with industry standards is essential in vocational education to improve students’ technical readiness and employability in the networking field.

This community service program aims to strengthen legal awareness among Kodingareng fishers through community-based legal education tailored to their social characteristics and work structures. The program was implemented through initial mapping, participant segmentation based on local fishing typologies—papekang, papattek, and pagae—and dialogical legal education linked directly to everyday fishing practices. The educational content focused on clarifying categories of prohibited acts, legal consequences, and individual responsibility within both independent fishing and vessel-based collective work. The results indicate an improvement in participants’ ability to articulate legal boundaries, assess legal risks based on specific actions, and understand the relationship between legal compliance, resource sustainability, and household livelihood stability. Although economic pressure, long working hours, and patron–client relations remain significant constraints on rapid behavioral change, the enhancement of legal awareness represents a meaningful outcome within the framework of community service. The findings suggest that community-based legal education can function as an effective preventive strategy against fishing-related crimes and provide a foundation for sustained legal empowerment initiatives in small island communities.

This study explores the use of English movies as an alternative approach to English language learning for university students, examining its impact on language skills, learning motivation, and cultural awareness. A qualitative narrative inquiry method was employed to capture students' experiences and perspectives on learning through films. The research involved eight university students, selected purposefully, and data was gathered through in-depth interviews. The findings suggest that watching English movies significantly improves students' listening and speaking skills, vocabulary, fluency, and real-world language usage. English subtitles were found to play a critical role in enhancing students' understanding of sentence structures, spelling, and contextual meanings. Additionally, films were perceived as an engaging learning tool that reduced monotony and boosted motivation compared to traditional methods reliant on textbooks and grammar exercises. Moreover, students reported an increased understanding of cultural nuances, as films exposed them to authentic communication styles, expressions, and social contexts. However, the effectiveness of film-based learning depends on its consistent integration, the careful selection of films that match students' language proficiency levels, and structured pedagogical support. This study concludes that films, when systematically implemented, offer a dynamic and relevant method to engage students and enhance their language learning experience, making it a promising educational tool in higher education.

Information technology (IT) infrastructure planning plays a strategic role in supporting organizational performance and achieving business objectives. However, many organizations experience misalignment between IT infrastructure planning and organizational needs, leading to inefficiencies, limited system integration, and suboptimal utilization of IT investments (Maulana, 2024; Njanka et al., 2025). This study aims to analyze the suitability of IT infrastructure planning with organizational needs using a quantitative approach. The research framework integrates the Strategic Alignment Model (SAM), Strategic Alignment Maturity Model (SAMM), and COBIT 2019 governance principles. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire distributed to IT managers and system users. A total of 85 valid responses were analyzed using descriptive statistics and gap analysis. The results indicate that IT infrastructure planning is moderately aligned with organizational needs, particularly in supporting operational activities. Nevertheless, significant gaps were identified in system integration, scalability, and long-term infrastructure planning. These findings highlight the importance of continuous evaluation and governance-based IT planning to enhance alignment and ensure sustainable organizational performance.

The development of multimedia-based interactive games requires a system capable of effectively managing game logic, character behavior, and the integration of visual and animation elements. This study aims to implement GDScript in the development of a 2D RPG game using the Godot Engine. The research method was carried out through the design of scene and node structures, the implementation of game logic using GDScript, and the application of Finite State Machine (FSM) to regulate enemy behavior. GDScript is used to control character movement, animation systems, and interactions between players and objects in the game. The implementation of FSM allows enemies to have dynamic behavior through state settings such as idle and wander. Functional testing results show that the game system can run according to the design and is capable of producing responsive interactions. In addition, the use of modular architecture in the Godot Engine facilitates system development and maintenance. Based on the research results, the Godot Engine and GDScript are considered effective for developing multimedia-based interactive games.

This study aims to compare the performance of Multiple Linear Regression (MLR) and Random Forest Regression (RFR) in predicting student performance based on academic scores. Student performance is defined as the average of math scores, Reading Scores, and writing scores. This study uses a quantitative approach with a comparative design based on predictive modeling. The data used is secondary data from the Student Prediction dataset obtained through the Kaggle platform, which was processed using the Python programming language through the Google Colab platform. The analysis stages included the formation of performance variables, the separation of training and test data with a ratio of 80:20, model training, and evaluation using the Mean Squared Error (MSE), Mean Absolute Error (MAE), and coefficient of determination (R²) metrics. The results show that the Multiple Linear Regression model produced an MSE value of 2.74 × 10⁻²⁸, an MAE of 1.51 × 10⁻¹⁴, and an R² of 1.000. Meanwhile, Random Forest Regression produced an MSE of 0.296, an MAE of 0.375, and an R² of 0.998. These findings indicate that both models have a very high level of accuracy, but Multiple Linear Regression provides the best performance. This is due to the strong linear relationship between the input variables and the target variables formed directly from the combination of academic values. Thus, the linear regression model is proven to be more suitable for use in data structures that have simple linear relationships compared to ensemble-based models.

This article examines how meritocracy is institutionalized within the public administration systems of Indonesia and Singapore and how it affects public service quality. Using a descriptive–comparative library research design, the analysis focuses on four dimensions: bureaucratic structure, governing system and political influence, administrative reform and merit mechanisms, and implications for service delivery. The findings indicate that Indonesia’s bureaucracy remains highly hierarchical and decentralized, creating uneven institutional capacity and allowing electoral–political dynamics to influence appointments and rotations, which weakens consistent merit implementation. In contrast, Singapore operates a streamlined and centrally coordinated bureaucracy supported by high political stability, rigorous competency-based recruitment and promotion, transparent performance management, and competitive remuneration, enabling merit principles to be applied more consistently. These differences translate into more uniform and efficient public services in Singapore, while Indonesia continues to experience variability across regions and sectors. Strengthening merit enforcement, oversight, and professional culture is therefore crucial to improve the effectiveness and equity of public services in Indonesia.
