The global clean water crisis is exacerbated by significant losses in water distribution networks (WDNs), resulting in inefficient use of both water and energy resources. Traditional methods of leak detection and pressure management often fail to address these inefficiencies, leading to substantial water wastage and high operational costs. This research aims to design a sustainable, smart water distribution system using advanced technologies such as Machine Learning (ML) for leak detection and automated pressure control. The system employs real-time monitoring through IoT sensors, which continuously gather data on water pressure, flow rates, and other critical parameters. This data is analyzed using various ML algorithms, including supervised and unsupervised learning models, to detect anomalies indicative of leaks. Additionally, the system integrates automated pressure control mechanisms that dynamically adjust pressure to prevent over-pressurization, reducing both water loss and energy consumption. By combining leak detection and pressure control, the proposed system offers a more efficient, sustainable solution to water resource management compared to traditional methods. The expected outcomes include a significant reduction in water loss, enhanced energy efficiency, and improved water service quality. However, the implementation of such a system in rural or small-town infrastructure faces challenges, including sensor maintenance, algorithm reliability, and regulatory issues. A cost-benefit analysis suggests that while the initial investment in smart technologies may be high, the long-term savings in water and energy costs outweigh these costs. This study underscores the potential of ML-based systems in enhancing water conservation, operational efficiency, and sustainability in water management.

This article discusses the importance of developing a Christian Religious Education (PAK) model based on Christian theology and implemented through the active role of the church in carrying out the Great Commission. True Christian education does not only convey doctrinal information, but also forms the character, spirituality, and calling of the people based on the word of God. The church is positioned as a learning community and the main implementer of the contextual, transformative, and biblical theology-rooted faith education process. Through a qualitative-descriptive approach and literature study, this paper emphasizes that theological foundations, such as God as the source of education, the Bible as the basis of teaching, Christ as the focus, and the church as the implementer, are inseparable elements of PAK. Christian Religious Education based on theology provides clear direction in designing content, methods, and learning objectives that are in line with God's will. Thus, this education model is expected to be able to answer the challenges of the times, strengthen the faith of the congregation, and produce strong and relevant followers of Christ in society.  

Noise in educational environments can affect the effectiveness of teaching and learning processes. This study aims to analyze the impact of traffic noise on teaching and learning activities in Building V of Semarang University, located along the Soekarno-Hatta arterial road. The research method uses a qualitative descriptive approach by measuring noise levels using a Sound Level Meter on six floors of the building. Measurements were taken during active lecture hours with time intervals of 3 x 30 minutes. The results showed that noise levels on floors 1 to 3 were above the educational environment quality standard of 55 dB according to KepMenLH No. 48 of 1996. Meanwhile, on the 6th floor, the noise level averaged around 55 dB. Excessive noise makes it difficult for students to hear lecturers' explanations, reduces their ability to capture information, and decreases learning material retention. To address these issues, sound insulation installation, spatial planning improvements by designing room layouts farther from noise sources, vegetation planting, and lecture rescheduling to avoid peak traffic times are necessary.

Active learning strategies are considered one of the most effective approaches in creating meaningful, participatory learning processes that enhance students’ intrinsic motivation. In the context of Fiqh learning, the implementation of active learning strategies plays a crucial role because Fiqh not only requires cognitive understanding but also involves strengthening attitudes and internalizing religious values. Traditional teacher-centered learning methods often lead to passive participation, boredom, and a lack of motivation among students. Therefore, the use of active learning strategies—such as group discussions, simulations, problem-solving activities, and experiential learning—can encourage students to participate more actively, think critically, and develop a stronger motivation to achieve better learning outcomes.This study aims to describe how active learning strategies can improve students’ motivation in Fiqh subjects. The analysis shows that engaging students directly in learning activities increases their attention, interest, and sense of responsibility in understanding the material. Additionally, two-way interactions between teachers and students create a more dynamic and enjoyable learning atmosphere. Thus, active learning strategies serve as a relevant and effective approach to enhancing learning motivation and improving the overall quality of Fiqh education.

Islamic banking financing has become a crucial component of Indonesia's financial sector, providing a Sharia-compliant alternative to conventional financing. Despite its rapid growth, assessing the feasibility of Islamic banking financing remains a major challenge, particularly in terms of risk management, financial sustainability, and regulatory compliance. Previous studies have assessed financing feasibility using various methods, including the 5C approach (Character, Capacity, Capital, Collateral, and Conditions). However, research in this area remains fragmented, with a lack of systematic analysis of key trends, methodologies, and influencing factors. This study uses a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) to synthesize and analyze existing research on the feasibility of Islamic banking financing in Indonesia. The review covers studies published between 2020 and 2022, focusing on research distribution, analytical techniques, and key determinants affecting financing feasibility. The findings reveal that most studies emphasize credit risk assessment, financial literacy, and regulatory frameworks, but lack a unified approach to measuring feasibility. Furthermore, this study highlights gaps in the application of digital technologies, such as big data and machine learning, that can be used to strengthen the financing eligibility assessment system. The application of these technologies not only improves the accuracy of risk predictions but also enables Islamic banking institutions to reach more customers, particularly MSMEs and the informal sector, which have historically been underserved. The results of this study provide valuable insights for Islamic financial institutions, regulators, and researchers, highlighting the need for integrated risk assessment models, a better regulatory framework, and enhanced financial literacy initiatives to strengthen Islamic banking financing in Indonesia. This research contributes to the development of a more structured and comprehensive framework for evaluating financing eligibility, ensuring sustainable growth and financial inclusion in the Islamic banking sector.
