The program employed a Training of Trainers (ToT) approach involving training sessions, module development workshops, and mentoring. Participants consisted of 20 tutors from three PKBM in Klaten Regency. Competence was evaluated through pretest and posttest questionnaires covering literacy understanding, pedagogical competence, module development, and learning implementation. Results indicated a 24,61%. increase in tutor competence, with the average score rising from 63,31 to 87,92. The program effectively enhanced tutors’ capacity to design contextual learning grounded in ethnoscience and local wisdom.

Higher-order thinking skills (HOTS) are a requirement in 21st-century education, yet assessments in schools are still primarily based on lower-order thinking (LOTS) cognitive skills. This study aims to examine the concept of the Revised Bloom's Taxonomy, the characteristics of instruments based on Higher-Order Thinking Skills (HOTS), and their implementation in instrument development. This study used a qualitative approach with a heritage study method. Data were obtained from books, scientific journals, and educational policy documents related to HOTS-based assessment. Analysis was conducted through data reduction, categorization, and drawing conclusions based on their alignment with the Revised Bloom's Taxonomy framework. The results of this study indicate that cognitive levels C4-C6 in the Revised Bloom's Taxonomy serve as the primary reference in developing HOTS instruments, which can assist in developing HOTS-based instruments to measure students' higher-order thinking skills.

This study aimed to increase students’ learning activeness and reduce boredom in Indonesian language lessons through the implementation of the Project Based Learning (PjBL) model for first-grade students at MI Ma’arif NU Bebekan. The research was conducted using an observation method during the learning process. The subjects of this study were first-grade students of MI Ma’arif NU Bebekan. Data were collected through observations of students’ activities, participation in learning, enthusiasm in completing projects, and responses during Indonesian language lessons. The observation results showed that the implementation of Project Based Learning had a positive impact on the learning process.

Intercultural Communicative Competence (ICC) has become a key objective of English language education; however, its implementation in Indonesia remains insufficiently understood. This study investigates the alignment between ICC expectations in the Kurikulum Merdeka, English textbooks, and classroom practices in Indonesian senior high schools. An exploratory sequential mixed methods design was employed, involving document analysis of four government-issued English textbooks for grades X–XII, classroom observations in 15 schools across three provinces, a survey of 87 English teachers, and in-depth interviews with 18 teachers and 36 students. The findings reveal a three-level gap. First, the curriculum acknowledges ICC but lacks clear and measurable operational guidelines. Second, textbooks predominantly emphasize Anglo-American culture (64.8% of cultural content) while providing limited representation of Indonesian and global cultures. Third, 78.2% of teachers reported not explicitly integrating cultural dimensions into English instruction, resulting in stereotypical and culturally limited classroom practices. To address these issues, the study proposes the Triangulated Cultural Literacy (TCL) framework, integrating reflection on learners’ own culture, balanced exploration of target cultures, and intercultural negotiation. The findings highlight the need to operationalize ICC in the curriculum, improve textbook cultural representation, and strengthen teachers’ intercultural pedagogical competence.

Manual teaching journal management at SMA Negeri 1 Kayen frequently leads to documentation inefficiencies, risks of data loss, and challenges in the teaching supervision process. This research tends to design and develop a web-based teacher teaching journal information system employing the CodeIgniter 3 framework with a Model-View-Controller (MVC) architecture.

Children's literacy can be improved through interactive learning media. A digital children's story platform, previously a mobile application, required web version development to expand user accessibility via browsers. The main challenge in this development was presenting multimedia content such as text, images, and audio dubbing synchronously scene-by-scene without degrading system performance, as well as facilitating reader interaction through a rating feature. This research aims to design and develop the platform using a Decoupled Architecture approach. The software development method used is Waterfall, encompassing requirement analysis, system design (UML, CDM, and PDM), implementation, testing, and maintenance. During implementation, ReactJS is utilized on the client-side for responsive interface rendering and state management, while Laravel is implemented on the server-side as a RESTful API provider to manage multimedia asset transmission, rating records, and the MySQL database. Functional system testing was evaluated using Black-box Testing, while user experience was validated using Spearman's Rank Correlation. The results indicate that this architectural separation (front-end and back-end) effectively resolves server overload issues commonly found in monolithic architectures and produces a seamless, stable asynchronous data transmission system across various devices.

This study analyzes the effect of logistics digitalization systems and personnel competence on the distribution of personnel uniforms (kaporlap) at Kodiklatal. The study was motivated by the fact that the distribution system had not yet operated optimally despite the implementation of digital logistics, while delays in updating the Sistem Informasi Entitas Samapta (SIMBENSAM), limited documentation of device identities, and unequal digital skills among personnel still constrained distribution performance. A quantitative approach with explanatory design was applied. The population consisted of 3,099 personnel and the sample comprised 97 respondents selected using Slovin's formula. Data were collected through Likert-scale questionnaires and internal documentation, then analyzed using validity and reliability tests, classical assumption tests, descriptive analysis, and simple and multiple linear regression. The results show that the logistics digitalization system has a positive and significant effect on kaporlap distribution (t = 24.607; p < 0.05), personnel competence also has a positive and significant effect (t = 37.972; p < 0.05), and both variables simultaneously affect distribution performance (F = 788.285; p < 0.05) with an R square of 0.944. These findings confirm that digital systems and human competence must be strengthened in an integrated manner to support efficient, accurate, and timely distribution in a military education environment.

This study aims to describe the implementation of the group discussion model as a strategy to strengthen students' collaboration in Indonesian procedural text learning in Grade IV of SDN 8 Selat Penuguan. The study focuses on the implementation of group discussion, the forms of students' collaboration, the teacher's role in guiding collaboration, and the supporting and inhibiting factors in the learning process. This research employed a descriptive qualitative approach. The primary data were obtained from the teacher and Grade IV students, while supporting data were collected from learning documents. Data were gathered through observation, interviews, and documentation, and were analyzed through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. Data validity was strengthened through source and technique triangulation. The findings indicate that group discussion was implemented through planning, small-group formation, procedural-text-based tasks, discussion, presentation, feedback, and reflection. The model strengthened students' collaboration through task sharing, mutual assistance, expressing opinions, listening to peers, and taking responsibility for group outcomes. The teacher acted as a learning designer, facilitator, guide, communication mediator, and evaluator of collaborative processes. Supporting factors included teacher readiness, the suitability of procedural text material, the use of worksheets, and a conducive classroom climate, while inhibiting factors included uneven student participation, limited time, differences in language competence, and the dominance of particular students in group work. The study concludes that the group discussion model is relevant for procedural text learning because it integrates material comprehension with the development of elementary students' social skills.

The purpose of this community service activity was to improve the financial accountability of cooperatives by developing a PERSUS on the KPUD Kieskendo in Panunggalan Village, Pulokulon District, Grobogan Regency. The activity was conducted through a workshop and mentoring session involving the cooperative's management and supervisory board. It began with a presentation on the importance of financial accountability, good cooperative governance, and the implementation of SAK EP. The identification results indicated that the cooperative lacked a written accounting policy for internal oversight, financial reporting, and transaction recording. Next, the community service team drafted a PERSUS, which regulates financial reporting, cash and bank management, loan receivables, the formation of CKPN, internal supervision, related party transactions, and fraud prevention. To align the policy with the cooperative's operational needs, discussions on the draft were conducted through participatory, article-by-article discussions. The results of the activity indicated that the management and supervisory board had a better understanding of the benefits of accounting policies for increasing transparency and accountability in cooperative management. It is hoped that the PERSUS will serve as an official guideline for creating more professional, transparent, and sustainable cooperative governance.

Stroke is a neurological disorder caused by impaired blood flow to the brain, resulting in brain tissue damage and various functional impairments. One of the common problems experienced by stroke patients is sleep disturbance, which may be influenced by neurological deficits, limited physical mobility, pain, and post-stroke anxiety. Persistent sleep disturbances can delay the recovery process and reduce patients’ quality of life. The long-term use of sleeping medications may lead to adverse effects; therefore, safe and easily applicable complementary therapies are needed. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of peppermint oil aromatherapy in improving sleep quality among stroke patients in the working area of Barebbo Community Health Center, Bone Regency. The method used was the implementation of complementary therapy through the administration of peppermint oil aromatherapy to stroke patients experiencing sleep disturbances. Sleep quality was assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) before and after the intervention. The assessment results showed that before the intervention, patients experienced poor sleep quality, characterized by difficulty initiating sleep, frequent nighttime awakenings, insufficient sleep duration, and daytime fatigue. After receiving peppermint oil aromatherapy, patients demonstrated increased comfort, reduced anxiety, improved ability to initiate sleep, and better overall sleep quality compared to their condition before the intervention. Therefore, peppermint oil aromatherapy was found to be effective in improving sleep quality among stroke patients and can be used as a complementary non-pharmacological intervention in nursing care.

This study aims to formulate an engineering strategy for water quality management and pollution control in the Tiku Sub-watershed, North Musi Rawas Regency. The study used a descriptive approach by integrating selected technical data from a dissertation-based assessment with semi-structured interviews involving 20 key informants representing technical agencies, village and subdistrict governments, community leaders, artisanal and small-scale gold mining actors, farmers, and riverbank communities. The analysis focused on water quality status, water availability and demand, pollution sources, perceived impacts, implementation constraints, and priority interventions. The results showed that the Tiku Sub-watershed is under significant environmental pressure. The average pollution index was 6.65, indicating a moderately polluted status, while mercury, cadmium, phosphate, and ammonia were the dominant parameters of concern. Surface water availability remained relatively adequate at 45,842,699.79 m3/year, and the average Criticality Ratio was 0.266; however, the water pollution carrying capacity was poor. Interview results indicated that mercury use and processing waste from artisanal gold mining were the most urgent issue (35%), followed by land-cover change and riparian degradation. The recommended strategy combines mercury-free processing technology, alternative livelihood development, cross-sectoral supervision, riparian rehabilitation, and transparent water-quality monitoring. The findings imply that watershed engineering should integrate technical, institutional, and socio-economic interventions.

The governance of sand and gravel mining requires an integrated assessment of technical planning, occupational safety, environmental control, reclamation, and regulatory compliance. This study evaluated the governance of CV. Ria Bersaudara, a sand and gravel mining company located in Pasar Surulangun, Rawas Ulu District, Musi Rawas Utara Regency, using the Good Mining Practice framework. The study used a descriptive evaluative approach based on field observation, document review, indicative resource estimation, equipment productivity analysis, occupational safety and environmental risk assessment, and compliance mapping. The results show that the company has a basic legal foundation through an exploration mining permit covering 12.5 ha; however, several governance components require improvement. The indicative prospective area was approximately 2.50 ha, with an effective follow-up area of 1.80 ha and an estimated indicative resource of 21,600 m³ or 35,640 tons. Productivity analysis indicated that excavator capacity reached about 61 m³/hour, while one dump truck only transported about 10.3 m³/hour, creating a haulage bottleneck if the truck fleet is insufficient. Safety implementation was also not optimal, with personal protective equipment compliance estimated at only 55%. The study recommends validating permit documents, strengthening technical exploration data, improving drainage and sediment control, enforcing safety procedures, implementing progressive reclamation, and establishing daily operational records.

This study explores the role of Islamic economic law in promoting sustainable development by establishing an integrated relationship between ethical values, legal frameworks, and public policy. Although sustainable development has emerged as a major global agenda, its implementation continues to face challenges due to the limitations of conventional economic and legal systems, which often prioritize efficiency and economic growth while overlooking ethical and social dimensions. Employing a qualitative research approach through content analysis, this study examines classical Islamic jurisprudence, contemporary scholarly literature, and relevant policy documents to analyze the alignment between Islamic economic principles and sustainability frameworks. The findings demonstrate that Islamic economic law provides a comprehensive and ethically oriented framework based on fundamental principles, including tawhid (unity), adl (justice), maslahah (public interest), and maqasid al-shariah (objectives of Islamic law). These principles are manifested through various institutional and legal instruments, such as zakat, waqf, and risk-sharing financial mechanisms, which contribute to social justice, economic inclusion, financial resilience, and environmental sustainability.

Land-use changes dominated by impervious surfaces in residential areas reduce the natural infiltration capacity of the soil and increase surface runoff, which may lead to flooding and waterlogging. This study aimed to design a rainwater infiltration well system as an effort to reduce surface runoff in Samudera Afroza 3 Housing Estate, Jambi City. A quantitative approach was employed through field surveys, hydrological analysis, soil permeability testing, GIS-based land-use analysis, and infiltration well design in accordance with SNI 8456:2017 and SNI 03-2453-2002 standards. Rainfall analysis was conducted using maximum daily rainfall data from 2014–2023, applying several probability distributions, with the Gumbel distribution identified as the most representative model. The results revealed that the residential area covers 8,104 m², with 91.84% of the land occupied by built-up surfaces, resulting in limited natural infiltration capacity. The average soil permeability value of 0.00024 m/s indicates favorable conditions for the implementation of infiltration wells. Based on the design calculations, 41 Type III infiltration wells are required, providing a total storage capacity of 289.665 m³ and an infiltration discharge of 0.0919 m³/s. The proposed infiltration well system is capable of reducing runoff volumes by 15.044%, 12.486%, and 11.223% for 2-year, 5-year, and 10-year return periods, respectively. Therefore, infiltration wells can be considered an effective alternative for water conservation and runoff management in residential areas.

However, the study also found that the implementation of inclusive curriculum reform continues to face significant challenges, including inadequate teacher preparation, limited institutional resources, policy inconsistency, technological inequality, and sociocultural resistance

Schizophrenia is a mental disorder characterized by deviation in attitudes, thoughts and behaviors, and can cause positive and negative symptoms. One of the most frequently occurring negative symptoms is social withdrawal, which leads to the problem of Social Isolation: Withdrawal. Social isolation is a condition that causes individuals to experience a decline or even inability to interact with others and their environment. The purpose of this case study was to apply nursing care to patients with social isolation: withdrawal due to undifferentiated schizophrenia in Gatotkaca Ward of RSJD dr. Amino Gondohutomo, Central Java Province. This scientific paper was written using a descriptive method in the form of a case study through the nursing process approach. Data collection methods used were interview, observation, documentation study, and literature study. Nursing diagnoses that emerged in the patient with Social Isolation: Withdrawal were Social Isolation as the Core Problem, Low Self-Esteem as the Cause, Risk of Hallucination as the Effect, and Self-Care Deficit as a concurrent problem. Interventions were only carried out on Social Isolation and Self-Care Deficit problems, consisting of SP 1 through SP 3 for Social Isolation and SP 2 for Self-Care Deficit: Grooming. After nursing implementation for 4 days, of the 4 nursing diagnoses that emerged, only 2 nursing diagnoses were intervened, namely Social Isolation and Self-Care Deficit. SP 1 through SP 3 for Social Isolation and SP2 for Self-Care Deficit: Grooming were competently achieved. This indicates that the goals of the Implementation Strategy provided were achieved cognitively, affectively, and psychomotorically.

Vomitus is the forceful expulsion of gastric contents through the mouth, commonly occurring in children as a clinical manifestation of gastrointestinal diseases. Based on medical records of RSUD dr. Soeselo, Tegal Regency, vomitus cases increased to 355 cases in 2025. Therefore, comprehensive nursing care is needed to address problems arising from vomiting in children. This study used a descriptive method in the form of a case study through a nursing process approach, aimed at describing nursing care for a pediatric patient with vomitus. Three nursing diagnoses were identified in An. A with vomitus: Nausea related to gastric irritation/stimulation of the vomiting center, Risk of Fluid Imbalance related to repeated vomiting, and Knowledge Deficit related to lack of information exposure. Nursing interventions provided included Vomiting Management, Fluid Management, and Health Education. After three days of nursing implementation, all three nursing diagnoses were resolved, marked by the disappearance of nausea, improved appetite, normal hydration status (moist mucosa, good skin turgor, pulse 88x/minute), and the patient's mother and patient being able to understand and re-explain health education material about vomitus.

This study investigates the role of Baitul Maal wa Tamwil (BMT) in empowering Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) through the integration of Maqashid Sharia principles and financial inclusion strategies. Despite the strategic importance of MSMEs in economic growth and poverty reduction, many face challenges in accessing formal financial services. BMT, with its dual function of social (maal) and commercial (tamwil) activities, offers a unique platform to bridge this gap. Using a qualitative systematic literature review guided by PRISMA, this study analyzes 30 relevant articles to examine BMT operational models, implementation of Maqashid Sharia objectives, financial inclusion practices, and their impact on MSME performance. Findings indicate that BMT effectively supports MSMEs in capital access, income generation, and business resilience, but inconsistencies in balancing social and commercial objectives limit. holistic empowerment. Integrating Maqashid Sharia principles enhances ethical and sustainable outcomes, while financial inclusion expands outreach to underserved entrepreneurs. Optimization strategies, including strengthening institutional capacity, combining financial and non-financial support, and context-specific interventions, are essential for maximizing BMT effectiveness. This study contributes a comprehensive framework linking ethical, financial, and empowerment dimensions, offering practical guidance for policymakers and BMT managers in promoting inclusive and sustainable MSME development.
