Language variation in the form of mixed code is a linguistic symptom that is often found in bilingual and multilingual communities, especially in popular media such as movies. This study aims to identify and describe the mixed forms of code that appear in the second season of the Imperfect: The Series series, specifically in episodes 1 to 5. This study uses a qualitative descriptive approach with data collection techniques in the form of recording and analysis of dialogues between figures that contain mixed elements of code. The research instrument is in the form of dialogue transcripts that are analyzed with a sociolinguistic approach, mainly based on the theory of mixed code according to Suwito (1985) and the theory of relevance of the social context according to Holmes (2013). The results of the study revealed two main categories of forms of code mixing, namely inner code mixing involving elements of regional languages, and outer code mixing which includes the insertion of words or phrases from foreign languages, such as English. Based on data analysis, it was found that there were 12 data mixed in code and 18 data mixed in code out. This phenomenon shows that the use of mixed codes in character dialogue not only serves as a marker of social and cultural identity, but also as a reflection of the dynamics of communication in a pluralistic and modern urban society. In addition, the use of mixed codes in audiovisual media also has pragmatic and aesthetic implications, which can strengthen character characterization, create humorous effects, adjust the context of social situations, and increase narrative appeal to young audiences who are familiar with multilingualism.

Village communities generally have a cultural system deeply rooted in traditional values passed down through generations. This system encompasses various aspects of life, including agriculture, which is the primary source of livelihood. In Batukarang Village, Payung District, Karo Regency, North Sumatra, local agricultural culture is reflected in two key practices that remain preserved to this day: the aron tradition and kerja tahun (year work). These traditions not only demonstrate how the community carries out agrarian-based economic activities but also demonstrate how social, spiritual, and cultural elements are interwoven within Karo agricultural practices. Aron is a local term referring to small groups or communities that assist each other in farming activities. This system serves as a form of mutual cooperation that strengthens solidarity among residents. In practice, aron groups typically work in rotation on other group members' fields. In addition to speeding up the work process, this system also strengthens social bonds and fosters a sense of togetherness within village life.

The Golek Gonjing Miring Dance is one of the classical dance works created by Dona Dhian Ginanjar in 2019. This work is interesting to study because it combines two classical Javanese dance styles, namely the soft and feminine Surakarta style and the firm and masculine Yogyakarta style, as a symbol of the duality of women's nature. The theme of this dance tells the story of the angels who came down from heaven to have fun on earth, which is visualized through smooth and expressive choreography with a variety of traditional movements. The accompanying music uses Gendhing Ladrang Gonjing Miring Laras Pelog Nem, which supports the mystical and graceful atmosphere in the performance. Supporting aspects such as make-up, costume design, stage design, and lighting design also strengthen the delivery of artistic and symbolic meaning in this work. This study aims to describe the choreographic form of the Golek Gonjing Miring Dance, musical structure, and supporting visual elements that form an aesthetic unity in the performance. The results of the study show that the Golek Gonjing Miring Dance is not only a medium for preserving Javanese classical dance culture, but also a form of innovation that represents female characters in a more complex way.

Social campaign posters are one of the visual communication media that has an important role in conveying public messages, shaping perceptions, and encouraging changes in social behavior in society. With visual power, posters can express messages directly, effectively, and emotionally to the audience. This study aims to examine how key visual elements—color, typography, imagery, and layout—affect the emotional response and audience engagement to social campaign messages. A qualitative approach was used by collecting data through visual observation of a number of selected social campaign posters, design analysis, and literature review from relevant literature. The results of the analysis show that each visual element has a significant contribution to the power of the message. Colors, for example, are able to evoke emotional resonance by influencing the mood of the audience, such as the color red that conveys urgency or the color green that represents expectations and the environment. Imagery or illustrations provide the power of imagination and help the audience connect the message with social reality. Proper typography improves readability, emphasizes the main message, and establishes the desired tone of communication. Meanwhile, a well-planned layout creates a visual flow that makes it easier for the audience to understand the message in order. The harmonious interplay between colors, typography, imagery, and layout has been proven to strengthen visual appeal, evoke empathy, and motivate audiences to participate in social campaigns. 

Karawitan is one of the traditional arts native to Indonesia that has high cultural value, but now it is increasingly rare and is starting to be marginalized, especially among the younger generation. In Semarang City, karawitan learning faces various challenges, such as the lack of student interest, the assumption that karawitan is an ancient and boring art, and the limitations of interesting learning methods. Therefore, an innovative approach is needed to regrow students interest in karawitan.

Forgery of diplomas constitutes a criminal act that undermines the integrity of the national education system and negatively impacts public trust in educational institutions as well as law enforcement in Indonesia. This study aims to thoroughly examine the criminal law regulations governing diploma forgery, particularly under Article 263 of the Indonesian Criminal Code (KUHP), along with the essential elements required for an act to be classified as diploma forgery. Furthermore, the study explores the implementation of criminal law in handling diploma forgery cases in Indonesia, including the challenges and obstacles faced by law enforcement officers and the structural and cultural factors affecting the effectiveness of law enforcement. This research employs a normative legal approach, utilizing statutory, conceptual, and case study methods to obtain comprehensive theoretical and empirical insights. The findings reveal that despite the existence of clear and stringent legal provisions, law enforcement practices still encounter barriers such as inadequate diploma verification systems, the absence of an integrated national diploma database, and low public legal awareness regarding the consequences of diploma forgery. Cases involving professional individuals committing diploma forgery underscore the need for more consistent and systematic law enforcement. Consequently, this study recommends the development of an integrated national diploma database, enhancement of law enforcement capacity and coordination, intensified public legal education and outreach, and the strict application of legal sanctions to effectively prevent and prosecute perpetrators of diploma forgery

A thorough analysis of the film can provide valuable insights into how the characters in the film face financial challenges through the implementation of innovative entrepreneurial strategies. The film depicts how urgent needs can spark creativity and drive individuals to seek solutions outside conventional paths, resulting in small innovations that have a significant impact on their financial condition. This study aims to identify and analyze the various forms of entrepreneurial innovation that appear in the film, and how these innovations contribute to solving the financial problems faced by the characters. By analyzing elements such as opportunity identification, creative idea development, solution implementation, and adaptation to market changes, this study seeks to gain a deeper understanding of the entrepreneurial innovation process in a stressful context

The development of digital technology has significantly changed the global marketing landscape, providing a huge opportunity for Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) to build and strengthen their brands in a more effective, efficient, and affordable way. This research aims to examine and analyze digital branding strategies implemented by MSMEs in facing various challenges and taking advantage of opportunities that arise in the era of digital transformation. A qualitative descriptive approach was used in this study, with data collection through in-depth interviews, direct observations, and documentation studies on a number of MSME actors who actively utilize digital platforms. Interactive analysis techniques are used to process and analyze the data obtained systematically. The results of the study show that the strategic use of digital platforms such as social media, marketplaces, and websites has great potential in improving brand image, expanding market reach, and strengthening the competitiveness of MSME products in the midst of increasingly fierce competition. One of the key elements of successful digital branding is consistency in visual communication, relevant message delivery, and activeness in building interactions with customers. In addition, the use of digital marketing features such as paid advertising, creative content, influencer marketing, and customer relationship management also supports strengthening brand identity and consumer loyalty. However, the effectiveness of this strategy is greatly influenced by the level of digital literacy, access to technology, and managerial capacity of MSME actors. Therefore, support from the government and related institutions in the form of training, mentoring, and affirmative policies is needed to encourage inclusive and sustainable digital transformation. This research provides practical and theoretical

This study aims to analyze the potential utilization of empty space on the second floor of the domestic terminal of Zainuddin Abdul Madjid International Airport (ZAM) Lombok to increase revenue from the non-aeronautical sector. The background of this study is based on the importance of optimizing airport assets to support long-term financial sustainability. This is crucial considering that the aeronautical sector is highly dependent on fluctuating flight traffic. Therefore, the development of the non-aerospace sector is a strategic alternative that needs to be seriously addressed. The research method used is descriptive qualitative, with data collection techniques through direct observation on site, interviews with airport management, and documentation studies. The results of the observation indicate that there is an empty space on the second floor of the terminal, specifically between the waiting room and a row of commercial tenants, which has not been optimally utilized. This area is considered to have a strategic position and quite high passenger traffic, so it has the potential to be developed into a new commercial facility. One of the proposed developments is a photobox service business unit with a local Lombok cultural theme. This concept is considered interesting because it combines digital technology with elements of cultural tourism promotion, in line with the trend of tourist needs for documentation and unique experiences. A feasibility analysis was conducted using the Business Model Canvas approach and the 7P marketing strategy (product, price, place, promotion, people, process, and physical evidence). The results showed that this idea is feasible from both an operational and marketing perspective. The study concluded that developing a photo booth business in an empty airport area has the potential to become a new, stable, efficient, and market-relevant source of revenue. Recommendations are given to airport management to immediately realize the utilization of this area to support the airport's role as a regional economic and tourism hub.

The rapid expansion of Indonesia’s digital economy and the enactment of the Personal Data Protection Law (Law 27/2022) have exposed significant shortcomings in the resolution of data-related disputes under existing judicial and administrative frameworks. Public adjudication of sensitive data conflicts can erode trust, impose reputational damage, and delay reparative outcomes, while courts often lack specialized expertise in technology and privacy. Drawing upon international precedents including the European Data Protection Board’s Article 65 GDPR mechanism, the EU–US Data Privacy Framework arbitration annex, and the European Patent Office’s data-protection arbitration rules this study examines the urgency and feasibility of establishing a dedicated Data Dispute Arbitration Forum in Indonesia. Through comparative analysis, it identifies core design elements such as expert-appointed tribunals, streamlined online procedures, confidentiality safeguards, clear enforcement under the New York Con-vention, and mechanisms for restorative remedies beyond fines. Anchored in Pancasila’s social-justice ethos and Indonesia’s ADR law (Law 30/1999) and ITE Law, the proposed institutional architecture integrates online dispute resolution (ODR) protocols, data-minimization and cybersecurity guidelines, and publicly anonymized award publication to foster legal certainty and raise awareness of data-protection obligations. A stakeholder impact assessment demonstrates that such a forum would benefit individual data subjects through low-cost, expeditious relief; controllers and processors through predictability and trade-secret protection; regulators through expert findings; and foreign investors through alignment with global data-governance standards. By aligning domestic legal values with international best practices, the specialized forum promises to bolster enforcement, restore public trust, and strengthen Indonesia’s competitiveness in the global digital marketplace.

This study aims to explain attempts to build honest character in less active children and increase their interest in learning through traditional congklak or dakon games. Congklak games were chosen because they have elements of competition that require honesty, while also involving fine motor activities that can stimulate the participation of children who tend to be passive. The method used is a literature methods based on literature review and analysis of earlier research result in PAUD, TK, and SD. The finding indicate that congklak these games prove beneficial in instilling honesty values, improving simple arithmetic skills, and triggering learning motivation in less active children. The strategies applied include the preparation of clear rules, providing positive encouragement, and reflection after the game. Thus, congklak games may serve as an alternative tool for educational purposes character and academics that are fun, both at school and at home, which are relevant to the developmental needs of early childhood to elementary school.

Bullying is a recurring issue and has become a widespread concern, particularly among children and adolescents in school environments. Schools, which should ideally be safe spaces for learning, building friendships, and experiencing personal growth, often turn into places of fear and psychological distress for some students. This is largely due to the frequent violation of human rights (HR) that often goes unaddressed or is underestimated. Bullying can take many forms, including verbal, psychological, physical abuse, and increasingly, cyberbullying. Each of these forms can cause serious harm not only to the victims—who may suffer from emotional and mental trauma—but also to the perpetrators, who may experience long-term psychological consequences and develop deviant or aggressive behavior patterns. In Indonesia, bullying remains a significant issue and a major concern in the education sector. Nearly every school has faced incidents of bullying in one form or another. Cyberbullying, in particular, is harder to monitor and control since it often occurs outside the school’s jurisdiction and is carried out through social media platforms. Efforts to tackle bullying must go beyond merely protecting and supporting the victims. A comprehensive approach is necessary, one that also focuses on preventive education. Students, teachers, and parents must be consistently educated on the negative impacts of bullying, the importance of empathy, and a deeper understanding of human rights. Moreover, strict and clear sanctions must be imposed on perpetrators as a form of legal enforcement and deterrence. With a holistic strategy that involves all elements of the school and the wider community, it is hoped that educational institutions can truly become safe, inclusive, and supportive environments. Such conditions are essential for fostering not only academic growth but also the psychological well-being and character development of the nation's children.

This study aims to design and develop a website-based library information system using the Agile method at SMK Azzahro Palembang. The Agile approach was chosen because it allows for an iterative, flexible, and collaborative software development process between the development team and end users. This process prioritizes speed in completing each development stage and allows for continuous improvement based on user feedback. The developed information system includes several key features, such as book data management, library member data, loan and return transactions, and online book catalog searches. Through this system, library management activities become more structured, efficient, and well-documented. In addition, users—both students and teachers—can easily access book availability information without having to come directly to the library, thus improving time efficiency. The trial results show that this system significantly improves the work efficiency of library staff and user convenience in accessing information. This study also notes the important contribution of the Kampus Mengajar program, which supports the transfer of information technology knowledge to schools and encourages increased digital literacy among students and education personnel. With this information system, it is hoped that library management at SMK Azzahro will be more modern, transparent, and support the school's literacy culture in a sustainable manner. In addition to the practical benefits, the development of this library information system will also have a positive impact on improving digital competency for all elements of the school. Teachers and administrative staff who were previously unfamiliar with intensive digital system use will receive training and mentoring throughout the implementation process. This will result in improved information technology skills that can be applied not only to library management.

Creativity is the fundamental trait a teacher has to have.  Creative teachers can be recognized by their capacity to use several approaches and modify instructional methods to fit other learning environments.  This study intends to investigate the imaginative techniques used by Islamic Religious Education (PAI) teachers to inspire students' enthusiasm in memorizing short surahs at the elementary school level, also to know the supporting factors of it.  To capture the lived experiences of participants, a qualitative research design using a phenomenological method was applied.  In-depth interviews with Islamic Religious Education teachers, three students, and two parents yielded primary data.  These interviews aimed to collect ideas on the teachers' inventiveness in creating interesting memorizing exercises, their strategies for inspiring pupils, and the obstacles they face. The results show that students' motivation is much improved by the regular application of the muraja'ah (revision) technique in weekly memorization exercises.  Encouraging students' desire to memorize brief surahs was the inventiveness of PAI teachers.  The study also emphasizes, therefore, that the effectiveness of these memorization exercises at SDN Gulun 3 is significantly influenced by parental support and good rivalry among students.  These elements working together produce a synergistic environment that motivates pupils to be more dedicated and eager in learning brief surahs. Keywords: Creativity, Islamic Religious Education (PAI), Muraja’ah Method.

This article examines four essential elements of scientific writing: paragraphs, citations, bibliographies, and footnotes. These four elements play a vital role in ensuring the quality and integrity of academic writing. The primary objective of this study is to provide a comprehensive understanding of the definition, function, and application of these four elements within the context of correct and effective academic writing. This study is highly relevant given the crucial role of scientific writing in education, particularly for students writing scientific papers such as theses, dissertations, and journal articles. This study employed a qualitative descriptive approach through a literature review, conducted from July to August 2025. In this study, the authors analyzed various academic sources consisting of national and international publications to gain a deeper understanding of these four elements. This approach enabled the authors to observe how paragraphs, citations, bibliographies, and footnotes are widely used in various types of scientific works. The results of the study indicate that each element of scientific writing plays a crucial role. Paragraphs, for example, serve to organize ideas logically, allowing readers to easily follow the flow of the argument. Citations, on the other hand, serve to strengthen the author's argument by referencing valid sources, thereby enhancing the credibility of the writing. A bibliography is crucial for demonstrating scientific honesty, as it lists the sources used in research or writing. Footnotes, on the other hand, serve as additional explanations, providing further information without disrupting the main flow of the paper. However, this study also found that students still make numerous technical errors in their citations and references. These errors include inappropriate citation formatting, unclear use of sources, and errors in the bibliography. These errors can diminish the academic quality of the paper and undermine readers' confidence in the validity of the arguments presented.  

Micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in Indonesia hold a significant position in the economy; however, they frequently encounter obstacles in making efficient decisions. The study of decision-making theory focuses on identifying the optimal alternatives to achieve specific objectives. This process entails recognizing problems, collecting relevant data, and assessing various options. Different approaches are utilized, such as rational theory, which emphasizes cost-benefit analysis, and incremental theory, which prioritizes gradual adaptations to prior decisions. Moreover, cognitive elements and social settings influence decision-making, with the bounded rationality model underscoring the constraints of available information and individual cognitive capacities. Studies indicate that implementing decision-making theories can assist MSMEs in overcoming limitations in accessing information and analytical resources. Management information systems (MIS) are instrumental in enhancing both the efficiency and effectiveness of decisions while also promoting business sustainability in the digital age. By comprehending and integrating these theories, MSMEs can elevate the quality of their decision-making processes and strengthen their competitiveness in the global market.

This research examines legal protection against child sexual exploitation through Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) technologies, which are increasingly developing in the digital era. AR combines virtual elements with the real world, while VR creates a fully immersive environment. Both offer positive opportunities and serious risks, including new crime modes such as the creation of avatars or virtual models of children for sexual purposes, grooming in virtual spaces, and the distribution of immersive child pornography. Anonymity, the difficulty of age verification, the lack of digital literacy, and the forensic challenges of 3D content are significant obstacles to law enforcement. Existing regulations, including Law No. 17 of 2016 concerning Child Protection, Law No. 1 of 2024 concerning the Second Amendment to the ITE Law, and Law No. 12 of 2022 concerning the TPKS, have provided a strong legal basis, but do not specifically regulate AR/VR technology. A normative juridical research method with a statutory and conceptual approach is used to analyze existing norms, regulatory gaps, and their relevance to international standards such as the Budapest Convention and the Lanzarote Convention. The research findings emphasize the urgency of adaptive regulatory updates to technological developments, the implementation of cybersecurity standards, mandatory age verification, and strengthening the capacity of law enforcement officers in digital investigations and AR/VR forensics. Cross-border and cross-sector collaboration is needed to expedite notice and takedown mechanisms and close legal loopholes exploited by perpetrators. These efforts are expected to create a safe digital environment for children and increase the effectiveness of legal protection in the realm of immersive technology.

Flooding is a natural disaster that still frequently occurs in Singkep District, Lingga Regency, Riau Islands Province. This disaster has quite serious impacts on the community, both in the economic, social, and health sectors. Therefore, the problem of flooding should be a serious concern for the local government, particularly in improving the effectiveness of coordination between agencies directly involved in flood mitigation efforts. This study aims to determine the coordination process between the Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD) and the Public Works and Spatial Planning Agency (PUTR) of Lingga Regency in flood management, as well as to identify obstacles encountered in its implementation. The research method used is qualitative with a descriptive approach. The researcher uses the coordination theory of Harold Koontz which emphasizes four important elements: work planning, meetings or interactions, communication, and division of tasks. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, field observations, and documentation from both related agencies. The results of the study indicate that inter-agency coordination has not been running synergistically. The work plans of each agency have not been fully integrated, resulting in the implementation of the flood mitigation program running independently based on their respective duties and functions. The Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD) places greater emphasis on non-structural mitigation approaches such as education and simulations, while the Public Works and Housing Agency (PUTR) focuses on technical aspects such as flood control infrastructure development. Inter-agency meetings remain formal and have not yet become collaborative forums for formulating joint policies. Communication and task allocation have occurred, but are limited to the information dissemination stage. Key obstacles to this coordination include budget constraints, a lack of competent personnel, and low public awareness and participation in supporting mitigation programs. The lack of drainage construction in several affected villages also demonstrates weak inter-agency integration in program implementation.
