The development of digital technology has driven significant changes in modern learning methods by integrating various multimedia media. However, multimedia's ability to facilitate learning depends largely on the extent to which its presentation aligns with the principles of learning psychology, particularly those outlined in the Cognitive Theory of Multimedia Learning (CTML). This study aims to examine the role and effectiveness of multimedia in transforming modern learning methods by combining the results of recent empirical research from 2020 to 2024. This study used the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method by analyzing 22 journal articles obtained from several databases such as Scopus, Web of Science, ScienceDirect, Google Scholar, and Sinta. Research shows that the use of interactive multimedia helps increase student enthusiasm for learning, participation, understanding of concepts, and the ability to remember course material. However, disorganized multimedia design can add unnecessary mental burden, thereby reducing learning effectiveness. These findings suggest that the successful use of multimedia depends not only on the level of technological advancement but also on the quality of learning design that applies cognitive theory. This study provides a comprehensive summary of the latest research and provides tangible benefits for educators in creating effective digital learning content.

The rapid growth of TikTok Shop as a social commerce platform has led to the emergence of 'toxic content' produced by influencers as a marketing tactic that effectively influences Generation Z's shopping behavior. This study investigates the role of TikTok Shop influencers and their 'toxic content' in stimulating impulse buying behavior among Generation Z consumers in the fast fashion sector, focusing on the psychological mechanisms involved, the most frequently purchased product categories, and the broader impacts of these consumption patterns. A qualitative research approach with a phenomenological design was used, and data were gathered through in-depth interviews with eight informants: six Generation Z consumers aged 19–24 years and two active TikTok Shop fashion influencers, selected via purposive sampling. The data were analyzed using the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña (2014). Findings show that 'toxic content' acts as a stimulus within the Stimulus-Organism-Response (S-O-R) theoretical framework, triggering impulse buying within minutes by evoking positive emotions and urgency. The Fear of Missing Out (FOMO) mechanism, driven by emotional triggers like time scarcity, social proof, and exclusivity, was the most dominant psychological factor. The most commonly purchased items were tops, coordinated sets, aesthetic bottoms, locally-made footwear, and accessories. The effects of 'toxic content' are financial, psychological, social, and environmental. This study advances influencer marketing literature and provides insights into Generation Z’s consumer behavior in the social commerce age.

The rapid advancement of digital technology has transformed educational practices while simultaneously posing challenges to the preservation of local cultural values.

Indonesia continues to face a significant burden of stunting that seriously impacts human resource quality and national development. Stunting is defined as a condition of chronic linear growth failure in children under five years, characterized by height-for-age below minus two standard deviations (−2 SD) from the WHO Child Growth Standards median, resulting from prolonged nutritional deficiency during the first 1,000 days of life. Indonesia's national stunting prevalence in 2022 remained at 21.6%, far from the 2024 national target of 14%. This community service activity aimed to improve the knowledge of pregnant mothers and mothers with toddlers regarding the definition, causative factors, impacts, and prevention strategies of stunting in Banyumas Village, Stabat District, Langkat Regency, in 2025. A community-based participatory intervention approach with a pre-post single group design was employed, incorporating interactive health counseling, group discussion sessions, anthropometric examination of toddlers, and pre-test and post-test knowledge assessments using a validated questionnaire. Participants consisted of 21 pregnant mothers and mothers with toddlers, with 7 toddlers undergoing anthropometric examination. Results demonstrated a significant increase in the mean knowledge score from 55.24 (pre-test) to 82.38 (post-test), reflecting an improvement of 27.14 points. Anthropometric examination identified 1 out of 7 toddlers (14.3%) as having poor nutritional status based on the height-for-age index. Beyond measurable knowledge gains, the activity successfully promoted perceptual change among participants, fostered the active role of local health cadres as community change agents, and cultivated collective awareness regarding the importance of multi-stakeholder collaboration in stunting prevention efforts. It is recommended that posyandu cadres actively sustain the 1,000 HPK counseling program on a continuous basis, and that the institution develop more comprehensive follow-up community service programs in the target area.

Islamic boarding schools (Islamic boarding schools) are required to integrate classical scholarly traditions and modern education, one way of doing this is through the integration of the study of yellow books (tahfidzul Qur'an) and Qur'an memorization (tahfidzul Qur'an). The Baitul Abidin Darussalam Wonosobo Tahfidzul Qur'an Islamic Boarding School implements an integrative learning system to balance Qur'an memorization and understanding of Islamic law (shari'a). However, it still faces obstacles such as a tight schedule, different methods, and weak coordination and evaluation. This study examines the implementation patterns, challenges, and impacts of this system, with the hope of serving as a reference for developing a balanced and sustainable model of Islamic boarding school education. This research uses a qualitative approach with a case study design to understand in-depth the implementation of the integrative learning system between Qur'an memorization and the study of yellow books (tahfidzul Qur'an) at the Baitul Abidin Darussalam Wonosobo Islamic Boarding School (PPTQ). Subjects were selected purposively, including the boarding school administrator, tahfidz teachers, yellow book teachers, and students. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and documentation studies. Data analysis was conducted interactively using the Miles and Huberman model, which encompasses data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing and verification to obtain a holistic and contextual understanding. The discussion shows that the integrative learning system in Islamic boarding schools is implemented through a balanced daily schedule between Quran memorization and yellow book study, allowing memorization, understanding, and moral development to occur simultaneously within the students' daily routines. Integration is achieved structurally through scheduling, methodologically by linking verse memorization with book study, and culturally through the instillation of values, etiquette, and pesantren traditions. The success of integration is supported by the exemplary behavior of the kiai (Islamic teachers) and ustadz (Islamic teachers), the religious environment, and the motivation and discipline of the students, despite challenges such as busy schedules, physical exhaustion, differences in student abilities, and limited facilities. The impact of implementing this system is seen in the improved quality of contextual memorization, a more critical understanding of the scriptures, the formation of disciplined and moral character, and the holistic spiritual development of students.
