This study aims to explore the use of the surrounding environment as a learning resource in Social Studies (IPS) learning at State Elementary School 2 Metro Timur. The method used is a qualitative approach with a phenomenological research type. Interviews with teachers and students and analysis of supporting documents were used to do this. The results of the study indicate that the surrounding environment, such as school gardens and community social activities, can be used as contextual and meaningful learning resources. Because environment-based learning is considered more interesting and easier to understand, students respond well to it. However, there are several obstacles. These include time constraints, unpredictable weather, poor student coordination, and limited facilities. Teachers must plan well, use alternative learning media, divide clear roles in group activities, and optimize school facilities. According to this study, environment-based IPS learning can create an active, contextual, and relevant learning atmosphere to students' real lives, and has the potential to improve their conceptual understanding and social skills.

Old age is a challenging phase of life, characterized by physical, social and psychological changes that often affect the emotional well-being of the elderly. Loneliness, loss of meaning in life, and prolonged stress are often experienced, especially by those living in nursing homes. One effective approach to overcome this is reminiscence therapy, which is an activity of remembering and retelling past experiences. This study uses a qualitative approach with phenomenological methods to explore how memories of youth can be a source of emotional strength for the elderly. In-depth interviews were conducted with several elderly people in nursing homes. The results revealed that reminiscing about the past had a positive impact on their psychological state. Three main themes were found: (1) memories of youth foster happiness and nostalgia, (2) life achievements foster a sense of pride and self-identity, and (3) life value is gained through social relationships, spirituality, and acceptance. This process strengthens the emotional resilience of the elderly and improves quality of life. Thus, reminiscing about the past is not just nostalgia, but an important psychosocial intervention. Reminiscence therapy is recommended to be implemented routinely as part of efforts to improve the mental well-being of older adults in nursing homes.

The elderly stage is characterized by complex physical, psychological, and social changes, often leading to a decline in bodily functions and limitations in daily activities. This condition frequently results in older adults becoming highly dependent on assistance from others, including family members and caregivers in nursing homes. This study aims to understand the changes in bodily functions experienced by older adults and to identify factors that accelerate or worsen these processes, particularly among those residing in nursing homes. The research employed a descriptive qualitative approach, involving three older adult participants and one caregiver at Harapan Ibu Nursing Home. Data were collected through in-depth interviews and analyzed descriptively to illustrate patterns of functional decline and influencing factors. The main findings indicate that older adults experience decreased mobility, muscle strength, motor function, as well as impairments in vision and hearing. However, those who remain active in daily activities and receive environmental support demonstrate better levels of independence and quality of life. The study concludes that the decline in bodily functions among older adults is a natural process that can be slowed through physical activity, social support, and a supportive environment, enabling them to maintain a meaningful and independent life despite limitations.

The increasing number of elderly people living in nursing homes is an important concern, given that their psychosocial and spiritual needs are often not optimally met. This study aims to analyze the life satisfaction of elderly people living in Omega Nursing Home in Semarang City. The main reason for this research is to understand in depth how the elderly make meaning of their lives and the satisfaction of life that has passed before, in situations that are often far from family and meaningful activities. This study used a qualitative method with a phenomenological approach, and involved 5 elderly participants selected through purposive sampling technique. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, then analyzed descriptively through the process of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results showed that the level of life satisfaction of the elderly varied greatly and was influenced by past experiences, acceptance of current conditions, expectations for the future, and the views of others. Some seniors showed resignation, regret and loneliness, while others felt comfortable, grateful and retained a zest for life. The main findings suggest that social relationships, spirituality, and communication with family are key determinants in shaping older adults' life satisfaction. This study emphasizes the important role of the nursing home in facilitating activities that build the social and spiritual relationships of the elderly, as well as the need to improve communication between the elderly and their families. The study suggests that elderly services should not only focus on physical needs, but also on psychosocial dimensions and self-actualization, to support the overall well-being of the elderly.

This paper discusses legal protection for children as offenders in the juvenile justice system in Indonesia through a restorative justice approach. The study aims to analyze the effectiveness of this approach and the challenges faced in its implementation. The method used is normative juridical with a legislative and conceptual approach. The research findings indicate that the restorative justice approach offers a more child-friendly resolution mechanism, protects children from social stigma, and focuses on restoring social relationships. However, its implementation is still hindered by a lack of understanding among law enforcement officials, limited resources, and a legal culture that predominantly favors a retributive approach. A synergy among various parties is needed to enhance the effectiveness of legal protection for child offenders.

Surah An-Nahl verse 125, which reads "Invite (mankind) to the way of your Lord with wisdom and good instruction, and argue with them in the best way," is a strategic foundation for understanding the concept of da'wah management.
