This community service activity aimed to control the population of Aedes aegypti mosquitoes, which are the main vector of Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF), through the making and utilization of ovitraps in Sawa Village, Sawa District, North Konawe Regency. The methods applied in this program included field observation and door-to-door socialization to the community regarding the function, benefits, and procedure of making ovitraps. The socialization was designed to provide practical knowledge and raise awareness among residents about the importance of preventing mosquito breeding as part of DHF control efforts. A total of 30 households were involved as direct participants in this activity, and 30 ovitrap units were successfully made and distributed evenly to each household. The results showed that the community responded enthusiastically and expressed interest in adopting the ovitraps as a preventive measure. In addition, participants reported gaining new understanding about their active role in maintaining environmental health and reducing the risk of DHF transmission. The involvement of the community not only ensured that the ovitraps were effectively utilized, but also encouraged sustainable behavior in mosquito control practices. Overall, this program demonstrated that simple, low-cost, and community-based interventions such as ovitraps, combined with education and awareness campaigns, can contribute significantly to reducing the breeding sites of Aedes aegypti mosquitoes and lowering the potential spread of DHF in endemic areas.

This research aims to analyze the relevance of applying restorative justice in resolving counterfeiting cases committed by children, by examining the normative, juridical, and practical aspects within Indonesia’s juvenile criminal justice system. The background of this study arises from the dilemma between protecting the rights of children as offenders and the state’s obligation to maintain economic stability and public trust in the national currency. The research method employed is juridical-descriptive with a normative approach,. The implementation of restorative justice can still safeguard public interests, provided it involves relevant institutions such as Bank Indonesia and produces measurable recovery agreements. Thus, restorative justice serves as an alternative approach that balances child protection and legal certainty, while also contributing to the prevention of counterfeit money circulation in society.

This study aims to analyze the effect of changes in interest rates, exchange rates, economic growth, and world oil prices on stock returns in the transportation and logistics sector in Indonesia during the period 2006–2024. This sector was chosen because it is highly vulnerable to fluctuations in macroeconomic factors that have a direct impact on companies' operating costs and financial performance. The method used is multiple linear regression with an annual panel data approach, using a sample of transportation and logistics companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. The independent variables include changes in interest rates, exchange rates, economic growth, and oil prices, while the dependent variable is stock returns. The results show that, partially, only changes in interest rates have a significant negative effect on stock returns. Conversely, exchange rates, economic growth, and oil prices have no statistically significant effect. Simultaneously, these four variables also show no significant effect on stock returns. This study makes a new contribution through the use of a long observation period and a focus on the transportation and logistics sector, thereby providing a deeper understanding of this sector's sensitivity to macroeconomic conditions.

The spirituality of today’s church youth encounters multidimensional challenges, particularly the pervasive influence of digital culture, the gradual decline in interest toward spiritual disciplines, and the weakening of involvement in ecclesial ministry. Such dynamics often create a gap between theological knowledge and lived faith experiences. This Community Service (PkM) initiative was designed to respond to these issues by implementing an interactive model aimed at enhancing the spiritual understanding of the youth at GKSI Trimorejo Congregation. The model emphasizes participatory learning processes, in which youth are not merely passive recipients of teaching but active contributors to collective faith formation. The methodological framework consisted of three main stages: initial observation to identify needs and spiritual conditions; preparation of training modules contextualized with the congregation’s realities; and the implementation of interactive activities such as group discussions, thematic Bible studies, role-play, and collective reflection. Evaluation strategies integrated both quantitative and qualitative approaches, including pre-tests and post-tests to measure cognitive growth, alongside participatory interviews to capture experiential insights. The findings reveal a notable increase in youth comprehension of biblical principles, heightened enthusiasm and participation in church programs, and the establishment of a more cohesive spiritual learning community. Furthermore, the process encouraged a deeper sense of belonging and responsibility among the participants toward their ecclesial environment. In conclusion, the interactive model demonstrates significant effectiveness in fostering youth spirituality and may serve as a viable alternative strategy for churches encountering similar challenges within contemporary contexts of ministry.

Government representatives are members of legislative institutions elected by the people to represent their interests and aspirations in the policy-making and decision-making processes of government. People's representatives have a moral and ethical responsibility in carrying out their duties as representatives of the public's interests. The early history of the formation of people's representatives dates back to the Preparatory Committee for Indonesian Independence (PPKI), which also appointed the first president and vice president in Indonesia. People's representatives are a key pillar in the democratic system, serving as a channel for the people's aspirations. In carrying out their duties, they are required to uphold ethical values, integrity, and morality. However, various cases of ethical violations involving members of the House of Representatives (DPR) have triggered an increasingly critical public response, especially in the digital era that enables information transparency. This study aims to analyze how ethical violations by people's representatives affect public perception and how social media strengthens the public's critical power. This research method is qualitative-descriptive with a case study approach. The results show that public response to ethical violations has increased sharply through digital platforms, which has a direct impact on public trust and the legitimacy of legislative institutions. Social media has become a primary medium for expressing disappointment and moral pressure on people's representatives. In addition, social media has also changed the way organizations and individuals interact. The speed of information dissemination magnifies the social impact of every action by members of the House of Representatives. Ethics reform and a stricter oversight system are needed to maintain the integrity of representatives. This research concludes that the ethics of representatives are crucial for maintaining public trust. It is crucial for representatives to uphold a code of ethics to ensure integrity, which will lead to a positive public response and trust in the government.

The development of wearable technology, especially smartwatches, opens up great opportunities in preventive health monitoring, especially in rural areas such as Sembung Village, Wringinanom, Gresik, where access to health services is limited. However, this technology is still alien to the local community. Preliminary surveys show that the majority of citizens, including health cadres, have never used or even seen a smartwatch in person, and view it as a luxury and irrelevant item. In fact, the potential of smartwatches as “digital health assistants” is huge from tracking heart rate, blood oxygen levels (SpO₂), stress levels, to physical activity reminders that are essential for early detection of health disorders. This service activity aims to improve digital literacy and adoption of smartwatch technology through a participatory educational approach and direct assistance. Implementation methods include: (1) coordination with the village government and health workers, (2) Interactive socialization using local languages, (3) step-by-step practical training, (4) simulation of application in the field, and (5) pre-test and post-test evaluation of 27 participants (25 health cadres, 1 midwife, 1 nurse). The results showed significant improvements: function understanding from the original value of 1.8 increased to 4.2, consumption interest from the original value of 2.1 increased to 4.0, benefit perception from the original value of 1.9 increased to 4.3, self confidence from the original value of 1.5 increased to 3.8, and digital literacy awareness from the original value of 2.0 increased to 4.1. The hands-on approach proved effective in changing participants ' mindset from skeptical to enthusiastic, proving that the digital divide is not due to incompetence, but the lack of access to contextual education. The implication is that smartwatch has the potential to become a strategic tool for village health cadres in early detection and real-time data-based health education, provided that it is supported by sustainable mentoring.

This study was motivated by the low motivation and boredom of students in learning Indonesian, which is still dominated by conventional methods and results in less optimal conceptual understanding. The purpose of this research is to implement Wordwall as an interactive learning medium to improve students’ conceptual comprehension, interest, and motivation. This research employed a qualitative method with a descriptive qualitative approach. The subjects were X students of MA Darul Lughah Wal Karomah Kraksaan. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The findings revealed that Wordwall successfully created a more engaging and enjoyable learning atmosphere compared to traditional teaching methods. Its interactive features, such as quizzes, word-matching activities, and word-search exercises, stimulated students’ enthusiasm and encouraged them to actively engage with the material. The scoring system and timer also fostered a healthy sense of competition, which further motivated students to participate. However, some limitations were identified, including the possibility of cheating, the relatively small font size, and the time-consuming process of preparing questions. Despite these challenges, the implication of this study suggests that Wordwall can serve as an innovative alternative medium for teaching Indonesian, providing both meaningful learning experiences and enhanced learning quality.

Mosques play a strategic role as centers of worship and community development at the local level, serving not only as places of worship but also as spaces for non-formal religious education. However, many rural mosques are experiencing declining functionality due to limited facilities, human resources, and a lack of sustainable programs. This condition is evident in the Al-Karomah Mosque in Kalibundar Hamlet, where religious activities have declined due to the lack of sustainability of the Al-Qur'an Education Park (TPA) program. This community service activity aims to revitalize the function of the mosque by strengthening the TPA by emphasizing the instilling of religious moderation values ​​and increasing community participation. The method used is Participatory Action Research (PAR) involving mosque administrators, TPA teachers, community leaders, and parents of students through observation, interviews, and documentation of activities. The program implemented includes improving TPA management, teacher training, developing a simple curriculum based on religious moderation, and reactivating Quran recitation activities and habituating worship. The results of the activity indicate an increase in interest in learning the Quran, strengthening the values ​​of tolerance and togetherness, increasing community participation, and growing awareness of the importance of religious moderation. Thus, revitalizing prayer rooms through strengthening TPA is effective in strengthening religiosity while building social harmony based on religious moderation. The method used in this article is Participatory Action Research (PAR), involving mushola management, TPA teachers, community leaders, and parents of students through field observations, interviews with religious figures, and activity documentation. Program activities include improving TPA management, teacher training, developing a simple curriculum based on religious moderation, and reactivating Qur’anic learning and regular worship activities. The results of the program show: (1) increased interest in learning the Qur'an among children and youth, (2) strengthened values of tolerance, togetherness, and social awareness, (3) growing community participation in religious activities, (4) the role of the mushola as a center of religious moderation at the hamlet level, (5) increased participation of students and community members, (6) rising awareness of the importance of religious moderation, and (7) the reestablishment of Mushola Al-Karomah as a center of community religious activities. Thus, revitalizing the mushola through the TPA has proven effective in strengthening religious values while building social harmony based on religious moderation

This study investigates teachers’ perceptions, challenges, and institutional support related to the implementation of Differentiated Instruction (DI) in a rural Indonesian secondary school under the context of the Kurikulum Merdeka reform. While DI is widely recognized as a student-centered pedagogical framework that adapts content, process, product, and learning environment to students’ readiness, interests, and learning profiles (Tomlinson, 2017), its application in rural contexts remains underexplored. Employing a qualitative case study design, data were collected from three English teachers and two school stakeholders at MTs N 2 Manggarai Barat through semi-structured interviews, questionnaires, and classroom observations. Thematic analysis revealed that teachers perceived DI as a way to recognize learner diversity and as part of curriculum compliance, but their practices often remained partial and uneven. Stakeholders expressed awareness of DI, though with differing emphases: the headmaster focused on inclusivity, while the curriculum coordinator referred to multiple intelligences and student potential. Teachers faced challenges in three main areas: managing student diversity and curriculum shifts, preparing the Modul Ajar, and addressing students’ limited English vocabulary. Institutional support was evident through facilities, monitoring, and professional development, yet remained largely administrative rather than pedagogical. These findings confirm earlier studies that DI in Indonesia is conceptually valued but practically constrained by systemic, contextual, and linguistic barriers. The study recommends sustained, hands-on professional development, leadership mentoring, and reduced administrative burdens to enable DI’s transformative potential in rural schools.

Literacy, specifically reading, is a crucial skill for Islamic students (santri). Reading opens the door to knowledge. This article reports on literacy-boosting activities for students at the Al-Hidayah Quranic Islamic Boarding School to encourage their enthusiasm for reading. These activities include giving students reading assignments. They choose books they enjoy and have access to. Within a week, they complete their homework by reading and studying the book. At the next meeting, they are tasked with presenting what they have read and the benefits they can gain from the book's contents. The presentation is delivered orally without the aid of PowerPoint. Skills honed in this mentoring include the courage to speak freely, summarize the book's contents, extract wisdom, and the ability to persuade listeners. This activity is expected to not only improve the students' literacy skills but also shape their character, enabling them to convey information effectively and confidently. Thus, this activity plays a role in developing communication skills that will be useful for their future lives, both within the Islamic boarding school environment and in the wider community.Islamic boarding school students

The study recommends that teachers optimize the use of media and varied methods to make learning more engaging and aligned with students’ developmental needs.

This article employs a Critical Literature Review (CLR) approach, analyzing studies from 2013–2025 that include academic papers, nationally accredited journals (Sinta 2–4), and reputable international journals indexed by Scopus (Q1–Q4) to understand systemic fraud and audit failure in Indonesia.Previous re-search has mostly explained fraud from individual or organizational views, while few have addressed structural factors such as the normalization of fraud, weak regulatory oversight, and the crisis of auditor legitimacy. The synthesis reveals four main issues. First, systemic fraud in Indonesia has shifted from in-dividual misconduct to a structured socio-economic phenomenon rooted in culture. Second, auditing as a control mechanism remains technically focused, often failing to uncover collusive fraud involving top management. Third, an expectation gap exists between unqualified audit opinions and public demands for assurance against corruption, reducing trust in auditors. Fourth, conflicts of interest arising from audit fee dependence, weak regulation, and limited adoption of audit technology and forensic analytics indicate the need for institutional reform. Therefore, this article calls for an integrative framework that connects individual, organizational, regulatory, and socio-cultural dimensions to address systemic fraud and rein-force public accountability in Indonesia.

This study aims to analyze the forms of conflicts that arise within the educational environment and their implications for educational management. The research employs a quantitative approach based on library research by reviewing relevant journal articles published between 2020 and 2025 that address value conflicts, educational policies, and inter-stakeholder interests. The results indicate that value conflicts are often influenced by cultural differences, parenting styles, technological developments, and friction between traditional and modern values in schools. Policy conflicts emerge when national policies are not aligned with the readiness of facilities, teachers’ competencies, and school contexts. Meanwhile, conflicts of interest occur due to differing priorities among teachers, school principals, parents, and the government. These findings emphasize the importance of implementing adaptive and collaborative management strategies. This article provides an overview of an ideal educational management model to address conflicts and identify opportunities for improvement in the future.

This study aims to analyze the implementation of the murabahah contract in the Home Ownership Credit (KPR) financing product at Bank Syariah Indonesia (BSI) Cimahi Branch Office. This study uses a descriptive qualitative method with data collection through interviews, observation, and documentation. The results show that the KPR financing mechanism at BSI Cimahi Branch Office has been running in accordance with sharia principles established by the National Sharia Council (DSN-MUI). The process starts from customer application, wakalah contract, to the implementation of the murabahah contract with the principle of transparency of the principal price and profit margin agreed in advance and fixed throughout the financing tenor. The implementation of this system provides payment certainty for customers and protects against the risk of interest rate fluctuations. In terms of performance, Murabahah KPR financing at BSI Cimahi Branch Office has contributed significantly to the financing portfolio with a low level of Non-Performing Financing (NPF) and positive growth every year. However, challenges still exist in the amount of the down payment and the attachment of a fixed margin that can be a burden for customers with limited financial capabilities. Overall, the murabahah contract has proven to be an effective, transparent, and sharia-compliant instrument in supporting home ownership for the Muslim community in Indonesia.

This study aims to analyze the financial risk of PT Smartfren Telecom Tbk during the 2014–2023 period, focusing on both short-term and long-term liquidity aspects. The analysis employs financial ratios as measurement tools to assess the company’s financial stability and its ability to fulfill financial obligations within their respective time frames. The ratios used include the current ratio, quick ratio, interest coverage ratio, and cash flow-to-debt ratio. The results indicate that the company faces significant challenges in maintaining short-term liquidity, as reflected in the consistently low values of the current and quick ratios throughout the observation period. This condition suggests a limited ability of the company to meet its short-term obligations using available assets. In terms of long-term liquidity, although there are efforts to strengthen the capital structure, the company still encounters difficulties in meeting its long-term debt obligations. This is evident from the low interest coverage ratio and cash flow-to-debt ratio. Therefore, improving operational efficiency, implementing more effective cash management, and undertaking financial restructuring are essential measures to strengthen the company’s liquidity position sustainably.
