This study aims to analyze the transformation of the educational pattern at the Indonesian Naval Academy (AAL) from a four-year to a three-year system and its impact on graduate competencies and operational readiness. This educational system change responds to budget efficiency needs and accelerated officer formation filling, yet raises questions about the new system's ability to maintain the quality of officer education. The research employs a mixed methods approach with a concurrent embedded design, involving 250 respondents comprising graduates from both educational systems, AAL instructors, and unit commanders receiving graduates. Quantitative data were collected through structured questionnaires and analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics (independent sample t-test and regression), while qualitative data were obtained through in-depth interviews, observations, and document studies analyzed using thematic analysis. Results indicate no significant difference in overall Grade Point Average (GPA) between the two groups (p=0.470), but significant differences in competency patterns emerged: four-year system graduates excelled in theoretical competencies (p=0.001), while three-year system graduates excelled in practical competencies (p=0.003). Operational readiness evaluation shows that four-year system graduates obtained higher scores (82.5) compared to three-year system graduates (78.3), with significant differences (p=0.012), particularly in strategic leadership and complex decision-making aspects. Qualitative analysis identified five major themes: high learning time pressure, orientation shift from comprehensive to pragmatic, gaps in character formation and corps values, concerns about theoretical understanding depth, and need for more intensive post-graduation mentoring programs. This study concludes that educational time compression successfully increased operational efficiency but involved trade-offs in learning depth and professional maturity. To optimize the three-year educational system, a comprehensive approach is required, including curriculum revision with integrated learning methods, utilization of modern learning technology, strengthening of leadership development programs, and development of continuous professional mentoring systems. The recommendations of this research are expected to provide input for AAL and the Indonesian Navy in refining the officer education system to produce officers who are not only technically competent but also mature in leadership and strong in character.

This research examines the thought of Khawarij and Murji'ah in contemporary Islamic context with a focus on the relevance and application of these historical theological concepts to issues of extremism and moderation in the modern era. Through a qualitative approach with library research method, this study analyzes the doctrines of both groups and contemporary manifestations of their thinking. The results show that contemporary religious extremism phenomena have ideological connections with classical Khawarij characteristics such as takfirism, textual literalism, and tendency toward violence, while excessive political apathy reflects similarities with Murji'ah. The main challenges identified are how to balance religious commitment with tolerance in plural societies, and to overcome extreme tendencies in religious interpretation. In conclusion, a deep understanding of the historical roots of this thought can contribute to the development of a comprehensive approach to religious moderation in the modern era, with significant implications for social harmony and deradicalization efforts.

The continuously evolving fashion industry encourages designers to innovate, one such way being the adaptation of Japanese origami techniques into avant-garde fashion design. This research explores the application of origami butterfly forms in garments using a Research and Development (R&D) methodology. This methodology involves stages such as (1) potential problems, (2) data collection (literature review, observation, documentation), (3) product design, (4) design validation, (5) design revision, (6) product trial, (7) product revision, (8) wear trial, (9) product revision, and (10) mass production.The objectives of this study are to understand the application of innovative Japanese origami techniques in avant-garde fashion and to detail the garment creation process utilizing these techniques. In this research, the author focuses on the origami form as the central point. The findings indicate that origami techniques can produce unique and strong visual structures. A technical tip for creating these garments is to use a larger stitch size (7 stitches per inch) when sewing synthetic leather to prevent material damage. Expert validation suggests that this design has the potential to be developed as a contemporary fashion innovation, blending traditional values with modernity. This research is expected to serve as a reference for designers and academics interested in incorporating traditional techniques into modern fashion works.

This research aims to examine the application of weaving techniques combined with macrame in making hoodie jackets made from used denim, as an effort to support sustainable fashion. The background of this research is the increase in textile waste, especially used denim, which has not been maximally utilized. The method used is Research and Development (R&D), with the stages of design design, making samples of woven techniques, validation by experts, and making prototypes. The technique applied was two-axis plaiting combined with macrame knots using braided cotton rope. The results showed that the combination of these two techniques could be effectively applied to the hoodie jacket structure. The resulting prototype proved to be functional, comfortable to wear, and has high aesthetic value. This research is in line with previous findings such as Syaani (2020), which showed the role of webbing as a structural and decorative element, as well as Tiara Lugina (2015) and Mayarani (2019), which highlighted the visual strength of traditional techniques in modern fashion. Based on the results of the research, it is suggested that pressing of the seams is done before turning to prevent thickening, and macrame knots are locked on the lining to make it more stable. The results of this study show that the combination of webbing and macrame with used denim is effectively applied in the design of an innovative and environmentally friendly jacket.

Customer satisfaction and loyalty are central issues in marketing management, as both play crucial roles in ensuring business sustainability amid increasing competition. Satisfied customers tend to make repeat purchases, provide positive recommendations, and build long-term relationships with the company. Therefore, understanding the factors that influence customer satisfaction and loyalty has become an important agenda for both academics and practitioners. This study aims to address two main questions: (1) What factors influence customer satisfaction? and (2) How does satisfaction contribute to the formation of customer loyalty? The method used is a literature review, selecting articles from various online databases such as ResearchGate, Academia, and open-access journals using the keywords customer satisfaction and customer loyalty. Of the 45 identified articles, 20 were selected for in-depth analysis. The review results reveal three main trends: first, service and product quality are the most consistent determinants of satisfaction; second, price, promotion, and brand image play significant roles; and third, customer trust is an essential variable that strengthens the satisfaction–loyalty relationship. Overall, satisfaction functions as the main mediating variable in the formation of customer loyalty.

Maritime safety is a crucial aspect and occupies a central position in all maritime operations, especially for Indonesia as an archipelagic country that heavily relies on sea transportation. A lack of knowledge about safety tends to result in material loss, medical issues, and loss of life, demanding extra attention as the number of maritime accidents increases. This study aims to analyze the influence of independent variables on Shipping Safety (Y) at the Tanjung Emas Semarang Port Authority Office (KSOP). The independent variables tested are Crew Resources (X_1), Telecommunication Equipment (X_2), and Pilotage (X_3). Using a quantitative approach with Multiple Linear Regression analysis on 100 respondents (operational staff and captains), the F-test results confirm that X_1, X_2, and X_3 simultaneously have a positive and significant effect on Shipping Safety. Furthermore, the T-test results show that Telecommunication Equipment (X_2) has the highest and most dominant influence compared to other variables in affecting Shipping Safety. The Adjusted R^2 value of 0.619 indicates that 61.9% of the variation in Shipping Safety can be explained by these three factors. This finding provides empirical validation emphasizing the technological imperative in modern port risk management, guiding policies toward prioritizing investment in communication devices to enhance maritime safety performance.

This research is motivated by the shift in the meaning of modern education which tends to emphasize cognitive and materialistic aspects, while the spiritual and moral dimensions are increasingly marginalized.

The research method used is qualitative with a library research approach , using secondary data obtained from various classical and contemporary literature related to Islamic educational philosophy. The results show that Islamic education views education as a process of forming manners and divine awareness, learning as a spiritual and intellectual journey towards divine truth, and schooling as a space of civilization that unites knowledge, faith, and charity. The integration of spiritual and scientific values is the main foundation in the development of a holistic and civilized Islamic education system, so that it is able to produce knowledgeable, faithful, and noble human beings in accordance with the true purpose of Islamic education.

The spirit of evangelism is an essential element in sustaining the church’s mission and fulfilling the Great Commission of Christ. However, in the digital era marked by cultural shifts, individualistic lifestyles, and rapid advances in communication technology, this missionary zeal has significantly declined. This study aims to revitalize the spirit of evangelism through a missiological reflection on the multicultural approach of Ludwig Ingwer Nommensen in the Batak region. Using a descriptive qualitative method through library research and contextual theological reflection, this study interprets Nommensen’s missiological values and their relevance to contemporary digital evangelism. The findings reveal that Nommensen’s success lay in his ability to integrate steadfast faith with deep respect for local culture, providing a model for the modern church to communicate the Gospel in a relevant and inclusive way. Revitalizing the spirit of evangelism in the digital era requires a balance between profound spirituality, digital competence, and contextual approaches that honor cultural diversity. The implications of this study highlight the need for a renewed missional paradigm that enables the church to reach the digital generation creatively, adaptively, and faithfully rooted in the truth of the Gospel.

This research is motivated by the complex phenomena that occur within modern organizations, where the dynamics of power, influence, and empowerment often determine work behavior and leadership effectiveness. In many organizations, poorly managed internal politics can lead to conflict, injustice, and decreased work motivation, whereas empowerment and ethical leadership can foster a highly competitive and collaborative culture. Based on this reality, the study aims to deeply analyze how the concepts of influencing, empowering, and organizational politics interact and affect the dynamics of work behavior, as well as to identify leadership strategies capable of managing organizational politics positively while creating an effective empowerment system for all members. The research employs a qualitative descriptive method using secondary data obtained through a literature review of various academic sources, scholarly journals, and previous relevant studies. The results show that organizational success largely depends on a leader's ability to balance power and participation, control and freedom, as well as individual and collective interests. The application of leadership strategies grounded in ethics, transparency, and empowerment has been proven to transform organizational politics into a positive force that enhances performance, loyalty, and trust among members. Thus, the integration of influence, empowerment, and organizational politics not only strengthens leadership effectiveness but also creates a productive, fair, and sustainable work environment.

Islamic boarding schools (pesantren) as Islamic educational institutions face modernization challenges in developing effective learning methods. Action learning as an experience and reflection-based learning approach emerges as a relevant alternative. This article aims to conduct a systematic literature review on the implementation of action learning and experiential learning in Indonesian Islamic boarding school education. The research method uses a systematic literature review approach by analyzing 15 indexed journal articles from the 2018-2025 period. Inclusion criteria include articles in Indonesian and English, published in accredited journals, and discussing action learning or experiential learning in Islamic boarding schools.

Identified research gaps include minimal longitudinal studies, lack of long-term impact measurement, and limited comparative analysis among pesantren. This study recommends developing a theoretical framework for action learning contextual to pesantren characteristics and further research with more comprehensive methodologies.

This study aims to explore the role of digital storytelling (DST) as a 21st-century learning strategy in strengthening character education. The rapid development of digital technology and the growing emphasis on student-centered learning have made DST a relevant pedagogical approach that integrates creativity, critical thinking, collaboration, and communication with values-based education. Using a simple systematic literature review (SLR) approach, this study analyzed eight peer-reviewed journal articles published between 2020 and 2024, obtained from international academic databases Scopus. Thematic content analysis was used to synthesize findings and map the contribution of DST to 21st-century learning competencies and character development. The results identified eight key themes: increased student engagement, improved collaboration and communication, enhanced critical thinking and decision-making, creativity and multimodal expression, self-reflection and identity building, empathy and social awareness, interdisciplinary and authentic learning, and the formation of moral values. These findings support constructivist and experiential learning theories and suggest that DST not only enhances cognitive skills but also facilitates affective and ethical development. The study concludes that DST can be a transformative instructional tool in modern education. Practical implications include integrating DST into curricula across disciplines and levels, and equipping educators with training in digital pedagogy and reflective teaching design. Further research is recommended to explore DST implementation in primary and secondary schools and to evaluate its impact using mixed methods.

Modern students face high academic, social, and personal pressures, but Christian Religious Education has not yet maximized the potential of religious-based resilience. This study aims to: (1) analyze how the biblical values of faith, hope, and love can strengthen the components of students' psychological resilience in the cognitive, emotional, and spiritual dimensions; and (2) identify the integration mechanism between biblical teachings and psychological strategies in Christian Religious Education learning that can increase students' resilience in facing academic and personal stress. The method used is descriptive qualitative with a literature study approach to various journals, articles, and related academic sources. The results of the study show that the biblical values of faith, hope, and love are fundamental pillars that strengthen students' psychological resilience as a whole. Faith provides a foundation of self-confidence and personal competence, hope activates optimism and sustained motivation, while love builds healthy social relationships and essential emotional support. These three values work synergistically to strengthen students' emotional regulation, problem analysis, empathy, and self-efficacy. The deep integration of biblical teachings and psychology in PAK learning through biblical narratives, secure parenting relationships, supportive communities, and reflective feedback has proven effective in holistically improving student resilience. In conclusion, PAK learning that explicitly integrates biblical values with psychological resilience strategies is a transformative instrument for shaping students into individuals who not only perform well academically but are also spiritually strong, psychologically resilient, and ready to face complex life situations in accordance with the principles of 1 Corinthians 13:13 regarding faith, hope, and love

This material provides an in-depth overview of the fundamental distinctions between Islamic banks and conventional banks, covering their underlying principles, contract types, operational mechanisms, legal frameworks, and organizational structures. Islamic banks operate based on Islamic values derived from the Qur’an, Hadith, and the rulings of the National Sharia Council (DSN-MUI), emphasizing strict prohibitions on riba, gharar, and maysir. Contracts such as wadiah, mudharabah, musyarakah, murabahah, ijarah, salam, and istishna’ are applied to promote fairness and profit-sharing. In contrast, conventional banks rely on positive law and interest-based systems as their primary source of income. Legally, Islamic banks are supervised by the Sharia Supervisory Board (DPS) to ensure compliance with sharia principles, while conventional banks adhere solely to general financial regulations set by authorities like the Financial Services Authority (OJK) and Bank Indonesia. The operations of Islamic banks include fund mobilization, financing, and financial services without the use of interest, whereas conventional banks earn revenue from the interest spread between deposits and loans. Although both bank types share a similar organizational structure, Islamic banks incorporate an additional layer of sharia oversight. Overall, Islamic banks aim to balance profitability with ethical and spiritual values (falah), while conventional banks primarily focus on maximizing financial returns. This material highlights Islamic banking as an ethical alternative within modern financial practices, promoting justice, sustainability, and broader economic well-being.

This study discusses the phenomenon of language interference on the Instagram account of public figure Cinta Laura Kiehl. Language interference is a language phenomenon characterized by the entry of elements from one language into another language commonly used by bilingual or multilingual speakers. In this context, the interference of Indonesian and English on Cinta Laura's Instagram account is interesting to study because of its consistent and striking use in various uploads and digital interactions. This study uses a qualitative descriptive approach with a content analysis method on data in the form of image captions uploaded by Cinta Laura at a certain time. The results of the study show that the interference that appears can be classified into several linguistic levels, namely lexical, morphological, syntactic, and semantic levels. Lexical interference appears in the use of English vocabulary in Indonesian sentences. Meanwhile, morphological interference is seen from the structure of mixed word formation that does not comply with the rules in Indonesian. Syntactic interference appears in the form of sentence structures that follow the structure of English. Factors that cause interference include the speaker's bilingual background, the habit of using foreign languages ​​in everyday life, the influence of an international social environment, and expressive and modern communication styles on social media. This study shows that interference in the context of social media is not merely a form of language deviation, but can also be seen as part of the construction of self-identity and digital communication strategies. These findings are expected to contribute to contemporary sociolinguistic studies and enrich understanding of the dynamics of language use in digital public spaces.

This study examines in depth the concepts of maysir, gharar, and riba as three practices that are prohibited in sharia economics because they are considered to cause injustice and imbalance in economic activities. Through an analysis of the postulates of the Qur'an and Hadith, this study confirms that the prohibition of maysir is based on the element of excessive speculation that harms one of the parties, gharar is rejected because it contains ambiguity in the object and contract, while riba is prohibited because it creates an unequal addition in financial transactions. In addition, the study highlights how other religions and various modern economic systems have paid attention to the principles that are in line with the prohibition of these three concepts, especially related to business ethics, social justice, and economic risk mitigation. A cross-faith perspective shows that universal values such as honesty, transparency, and balance are essential foundations for building a sustainable economic order. By combining normative perspectives and cross-tradition comparisons, this study seeks to provide a comprehensive understanding of the dangers of maysir, gharar, and usury, as well as the implications of the implementation of their prohibition in modern economic life. The results of the study are expected to be a reference in formulating economic practices that are fair, stable, and able to be widely applied in various communities.

Love plays a central role in Christian moral theology as the fundamental principle guiding human moral decisions and actions. This study aims to examine the meaning, concept, and role of love in moral theology, as well as its practical application in Christian life. Employing a qualitative method with a literature review approach, this research explores theological perspectives, Scriptural foundations, and the moral implications of love within the Christian tradition. The findings show that moral theology is inseparable from the nature of God as Love, and that love is not merely an emotion but a deliberate moral act oriented toward the good of others. Christian love, understood as agape, represents the highest form of selfless and sacrificial love and becomes the normative basis for moral judgment. Love gives meaning and value to human moral actions, shapes ethical principles, and directs believers to live according to God’s will. In moral practice, love enables Christians to act justly, uphold human dignity, and build harmonious relationships with God, others, society, and creation. The study implies the need for strengthening love-based moral formation within the Church and society, especially amid modern challenges and the growing distortion of love among young people. Future research is recommended to expand on interdisciplinary studies and contextual applications of love in various socio-cultural and religious settings.
