This study aims to analyze the application of laws and regulations relevant to the topic discussed by employing a normative legal research method. Normative legal research is a method focused on the study of legal norms, doctrines, and principles found in legislation and scholarly writings. In this study, two main approaches are applied: the statute approach and the conceptual approach. The statute approach involves a systematic examination of legal provisions found in various legal instruments, including laws, government regulations, ministerial regulations, and other related legal sources. By analyzing these written norms, the research seeks to identify the legal basis that governs the issue under study. This approach enables the researcher to determine the extent to which existing regulations are relevant, consistent, and effectively implemented in addressing the legal problem. Meanwhile, the conceptual approach is used to explore the legal theories, principles, and definitions that underlie the legal rules being analyzed. This approach allows the study to go beyond the textual interpretation of law and delve into the conceptual framework that gives meaning to legal provisions. It includes an analysis of key legal doctrines, theoretical perspectives, and fundamental legal concepts such as justice, legal certainty, and legal responsibility. Combining these two approaches provides a comprehensive understanding of how the law is both applied and interpreted in the context of the research topic. It helps uncover inconsistencies, gaps, or overlaps in the regulatory framework, and also facilitates a deeper reflection on the rationale behind the law. Moreover, this methodology allows for the formulation of constructive legal arguments and recommendations, based on a sound interpretation of legal norms and principles.

This study aims to determine the influence of Market Value Added (MVA) and Economic Value Added (EVA) on stock prices, with Return on Asset (ROA) as a moderation variable. In the world of investment, stock prices are an important indicator that reflects the value of a company in the eyes of investors. Therefore, this study seeks to explore how economic added value and market value can contribute to an increase in stock prices, as well as whether a company's financial performance reflected in ROA can strengthen the relationship. The research method used is a quantitative method. The sampling technique was carried out by purposive sampling of 30 banking sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the period 2019 to 2022. The sample selection criteria include companies that consistently publish financial statements and have the complete data needed in this study. Data were analyzed using SPSS software version 26 with multiple linear regression analysis techniques to test the direct influence, as well as Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA) to test the role of ROA moderation. The results of the study show that MVA has a positive and significant effect on stock prices. The same goes for EVA, which also has a positive and significant influence on stock prices. However, when ROA was tested as a moderation variable, the results showed that ROA was unable to strengthen or weaken the influence of MVA on stock prices. The same is true of the influence of EVA on stock prices, where ROA has not proven to be a significant moderator. These findings indicate that while MVA and EVA are important indicators in determining stock prices, financial performance through ROA is not always able to moderate these relationships in the context of banking companies in Indonesia.

This research aims to analyze the financial feasibility and marketing strategy of Etawa goat farming in Kaligesing District, which is recognized as one of the main centers for Etawa goat breeding in Indonesia. The case study was conducted at Setia Farm, a representative and active breeder in the region. The financial analysis employed several indicators, including Break-Even Point (BEP), Net Present Value (NPV), Internal Rate of Return (IRR), and Gross Benefit-Cost Ratio (Gross B/C). The findings show that the Gross B/C value reached 4.7, indicating a high return compared to investment cost. The NPV value was positive, and the IRR exceeded the prevailing loan interest rate, highlighting that the business generates significant profitability over time. Additionally, the BEP was achieved in a relatively short period, which signifies the business has strong potential for short-term capital recovery and low financial risk. From a marketing perspective, Setia Farm implements a combination of product excellence, adaptive pricing strategies, diverse distribution channels, and active promotional efforts. Their flagship products—mainly superior Etawa goats and processed dairy products—are positioned to meet market demand effectively.

The radical transformations toward business economies and knowledge-based information have become a focal point for writers and researchers, particularly in the fields of public administration and financial management. These changes have significantly affected the banking industry, especially with the liberalization of global markets for financial and banking organizations, along with the rapid technological advancements and information shifts. Such transformations have inevitably led to alterations in banking performance, with new methods being adopted to address emerging challenges in the banking sector. In this context, Total Quality Management (TQM) has emerged as a crucial concept with a clear impact on banking performance. Its significance is particularly evident within Islamic banks, as they play a vital role in the global banking system, operating under a set of unique principles and practices. The effectiveness of TQM in improving the operational efficiency and risk management strategies of these institutions cannot be overstated, as these banks consistently demonstrate financial sufficiency, often exceeding required ratios. However, despite their financial stability, Islamic banks face challenges in fully implementing the principles of TQM. This study seeks to explore how the requirements of TQM can help reduce financing risks in Islamic banks by enhancing service quality, improving customer satisfaction, and optimizing internal processes. By examining the relationship between TQM practices and risk management strategies, this research aims to offer insights into how Islamic banks can better navigate the complexities of modern financial landscapes while ensuring continued growth and stability. Through this study, the potential for TQM to serve as a strategic tool for reducing financing risks in Islamic banks will be assessed, contributing to a more sustainable and competitive banking environment.

This research is motivated by the phenomenon of scarcity of 3-kilogram LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) occurring in several sub-districts within Kudus Regency. This scarcity is frequently caused by misdirected distribution, wherein the subsidized gas, which pursuant to Article 3 Paragraph (1) of Presidential Regulation of the Republic of Indonesia Number 104 of 2007, is intended for low-income households and micro-enterprises, is instead accessed by middle-to-upper class individuals and sold at prices exceeding the government-mandated retail price (Harga Eceran Tertinggi/HET). The purpose of this study is to examine the implementation of the aforementioned Presidential Regulation in the distribution of 3-kg LPG within a specific sub-district of Kudus Regency, and to identify the inhibiting factors affecting its execution. This research employs a descriptive qualitative method using a field study approach. Data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews with LPG base outlet operators, sub-district government officials, and subsidy recipient residents, as well as through documentation of policies and distribution reports. The findings indicate that the implementation of the 3-kg LPG distribution policy in the field has not been conducted optimally. Many base outlets continue to sell subsidized LPG to retailers or to non-target consumers for the sake of higher profit margins, compounded by weak regulatory oversight. The impeding factors in policy implementation include: lack of understanding of the regulations by distribution actors, insufficient governmental outreach and socialization efforts, weak oversight and evaluation from Pertamina (the state-owned oil and gas company), and the absence of firm enforcement measures or sanctions against violations, which further exacerbate the problem.

The central building of the cyber world in the city center plays a significant role in enhancing community activities, providing social space, and contributing to the city's image. As the first shopping center in Palembang City, International Plaza has historical and strategic value in the city's development. However, over time, the attractiveness of International Plaza has decreased significantly. This decline is caused by several factors, such as the development of new, more modern shopping centers and the lack of updates to the building's design elements that can attract visitors. This study aims to analyze the potential for redesigning International Plaza with a local cultural approach. In this redesign concept, the Sarinah Building in Jakarta is used as a comparative study because it has successfully combined modern concepts with the development of traditional elements that reflect local culture. The Sarinah Building, although designed with a modern approach, still maintains cultural values relevant to the surrounding community, thus creating a space that is not only functional but also has visual and emotional appeal for its visitors. The results of the study indicate that with a modern architectural approach that remains based on local culture, International Plaza has the potential to revitalize and attract visitors. The suggested redesign includes changes to the building's facade by adding ornaments typical of Palembang City, such as traditional carvings or motifs that reflect the richness of local culture. These ornaments can be applied using secondary skin techniques to building facades, which not only enhance aesthetics but also serve as sunscreens. Furthermore, zoning and tenant order are crucial for a more organized and comfortable visitor flow. Finally, enhancing the public space at the front of the building with additional public facilities, gardens, and gathering areas can create a more vibrant and enjoyable atmosphere for visitors.

This study aims to examine the use of cattle waste as organic fertilizer to minimize agricultural operational costs in Mrawan Village, Tapen District, Bondowoso Regency. Cattle waste, particularly manure, is an abundant local resource that has not been optimally utilized by the local community. The majority of farmers in the village still rely on chemical fertilizers, which are relatively expensive and have a negative impact on long-term soil health. Therefore, this program is designed to provide a sustainable alternative solution through an educational approach and community empowerment. The methods used in this activity include outreach, technical training, and direct assistance in the process of making organic fertilizer from cow manure. Education focuses on simple fermentation techniques, the composition of natural additives, and appropriate fertilizer application methods. Farmers are actively involved in every stage of the activity, so they become not only beneficiaries but also agents of change in environmentally friendly agricultural practices. The results of the activity indicate that the use of organic fertilizer from cattle waste can reduce the cost of purchasing chemical fertilizers by up to 40% in a single planting season. In addition, organic fertilizer has been shown to increase soil fertility, improve soil structure, and support healthier plant growth. Environmental impacts are also reduced, as livestock waste management is more controlled and does not pollute water or air sources. Therefore, utilizing cattle waste as organic fertilizer not only reduces environmental pollution but also provides an economic and ecological solution that benefits local farmers. This program is expected to become a model for empowerment that can be replicated in other areas with similar characteristics.

Dessert businesses face challenges in improving operational efficiency and competitiveness in the digital market. One possible solution is the use of websites as marketing and sales platforms. However, without proper management methods, the utilization of this technology will not be optimal. Therefore, this study applies the POAC (Planning, Organizing, Actuating, Controlling) method to develop a website- based dessert sales system aimed at enhancing business efficiency and customer satisfaction. This study employs a descriptive approach with the POAC method in website-based marketing strategies. The planningphase involves designing e-commerce features, such as product catalogs, an online ordering system, and digital payments. The organizing phase focuses on resource management and technology integration, while actuating includes implementing the system using MySQL, PHP, and CodeIgniter. The controlling phase is conducted through system testing using the Blackbox Testing method to evaluate application performance. The study results indicate that implementing the POAC method in a website- based system enhances the operational efficiency of dessert businesses. Transaction records become more accurate, customers can easily access product information, and the digital payment system improves transaction convenience. Furthermore, the website enables businesses to reach a broader market without geographical limitations. The implementation of the POAC method in website-based business management has proven to improve marketing and sales effectiveness. With a more structured system, businesses can better adapt to market changes and enhance customer interactions. This digital-based strategy also opens new opportunities for developing the culinary business in the modern era.

Electricity has emerged as an essential requirement in modern life. As demand escalates, electricity costs rise, making wastefulness a drain on financial resources. Consequently, forecasting electricity usage can enhance our management of consumption. This study presents an IoT-based monitoring and forecasting system for electricity consumption. The system comprises two NodeMCU micro-controllers, a PZEM-004T sensor for collecting real-time power data, and three relays that regulate the current flow to three distinct electrical appliances. The data gathered is transmitted to a web application utilizing the k-Nearest Neighbor (k-NN) algorithm to forecast future electricity usage based on historical patterns. We evaluated the system's performance using four weeks of electricity consumption data. The results indicated that predictions were most accurate when the user’s daily consumption pattern remained stable, achieving a Mean Absolute Error (MAE) of approximately 1 watt and a Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) ranging from 1% to 1.7%. Additionally, predictions were notably precise during the early morning hours (3:00 AM to 8:00 AM) when k=6 was employed. This study demonstrates the effectiveness of integrating IoT-based systems with machine learning for real-time energy monitoring and forecasting. Furthermore, it emphasizes the application of data mining techniques within embedded IoT environments, providing valuable insights into the implementation of lightweight machine learning for smart energy systems.

Assessment practices in Indonesian schools remain largely dominated by conventional summative evaluation, which inadequately represents reflective learning processes and mastery of 21st-century competencies. This gap highlights the suboptimal implementation of formative and authentic assessments in educational practice, as well as the lack of conceptual models capable of systematically integrating both approaches. This article aims to examine and develop an integrative assessment model that combines three key approaches: formative assessment, authentic assessment, and Evidence-Centered Design (ECD), as a strategic framework to strengthen assessment practices for 21st-century learning. This study is based on a conceptual synthesis of more than 20 national and international sources. A narrative review approach is employed, focusing on the three main approaches: formative assessment, authentic assessment, and ECD. The results of the review produce an integrative assessment model articulated in the Claim–Task–Evidence–Feedback syntax, which merges competency mapping (claim), real-world task design (task), student performance evidence collection (evidence), and continuous formative feedback (feedback). This model not only unifies the strengths of the three approaches but also offers practical solutions to the challenges of assessment implementation in Indonesia through practice-based training, integration into instructional planning, and support from technical policy frameworks. The article contributes to the advancement of assessment design that is pedagogically valid, contextually relevant, and instrumental in driving learning transformation.

The Geothermal Power Plant (PLTP) project in Batukuwung Village, Padarincang District, Serang Regency, has raised concerns among the community about the threat of environmental damage and disruption of the sustainability of the local agricultural system. So far, the community has depended on traditional agriculture that is closely tied to local social, cultural, and ecological values. PLTP projects, which are framed as part of the clean energy transition, actually create tensions between development and environmental conservation. This research aims to examine the social and ecological impact of the PLTP project on the lives of the village community. The method used is a qualitative approach with case studies. Data were collected through purposive sampling techniques for in-depth interviews with affected residents, community leaders, and environmental activists, as well as analysis of online media content and policy documents. The results of the study show that the presence of the project has created ecological and social vulnerability. Disruption to access to clean water, degradation of soil quality, and disruption of agricultural ecosystems are serious threats. In addition, the space for public participation in the project-related decision-making process is very limited, thus triggering resistance and horizontal conflicts. These findings show that the clean energy narrative does not always align with the reality on the ground. Therefore, it is important to consider the principles of ecological justice and the sovereignty of local communities in any energy development policy. This study recommends participatory dialogue and a thorough environmental evaluation before the project proceeds, so that development does not compromise the right of life of local communities and the ecological sustainability of the region. The active involvement of citizens as subjects, not objects of development, is the key to creating sustainable and equitable solutions for all affected parties.

Maternal and Child Health (MCH) remains a major challenge in Indonesia's health sector, given the high maternal and infant mortality rates, largely caused by pregnancy complications. One obstetric complication that requires special attention is Premature Rupture of Membranes (PROM), as it can increase the risk of infection in the mother and fetus and contribute to preterm birth. This study aims to analyze maternal risk factors associated with PROM in the Uteun Pulo Community Health Center (Puskesmas), Seunagan Timur District, Nagan Raya Regency, in 2025. The research method used was a retrospective survey with a quantitative approach. Data collection was conducted through a review of medical records and structured interviews. Fifty-three pregnant women with PROM participated in the study. Data analysis used a chi-square correlation test to examine the relationship between the independent variables and PROM incidence. The results showed a significant association between maternal age and PROM incidence, with a p-value of 0.023 (p < 0.05). Furthermore, parity also had a significant association with the incidence of PROM, with a p-value of 0.013 (p < 0.05). Other findings showed a significant association between maternal age and the frequency of PROM, with a p-value of 0.028 (p < 0.05). These results indicate that maternal age and previous birth history are important factors that need to be considered in PROM prevention efforts in primary healthcare. These findings are expected to inform the development of intervention strategies and education for pregnant women to minimize the risk of pregnancy complications that lead to PROM.

This study aims to identify the forms of implicature and language styles employed by netizens when commenting on the TikTok account @owner daviena skincare. Using a qualitative descriptive method with a pragmatic approach, this research explores the linguistic phenomena occurring in the comment section of selected posts. Data collection techniques include non-participant observation, attentive listening, note-taking, and documentation. The theoretical framework is based on the concept of implicature, which covers both conventional and non-conventional implicatures. The findings reveal that the comment section displays a variety of implicatures, with the dominant purposes being to offer advice, deliver criticism, and express support toward the content creator. Conventional implicatures appear when the meaning conveyed is closely tied to specific linguistic expressions, while non-conventional implicatures are identified in cases where the intended meaning relies on contextual interpretation. In terms of language style, the majority of comments utilize informal and conversational expressions, characterized by colloquial vocabulary, slang, and abbreviations that are common in online interactions. The analysis also highlights that the interplay between implicature and informal language style reflects the spontaneous and dynamic nature of digital communication on social media. Such interactions not only serve as a platform for engagement but also illustrate how language is adapted to suit the immediacy and brevity of online discourse. The study concludes that understanding implicature in social media contexts is essential for interpreting the underlying meanings beyond the literal content of user comments. Furthermore, the predominance of informal styles demonstrates the influence of digital culture on contemporary language use, particularly among netizens engaged in beauty and skincare communities.

The number of school-age adolescent girls in Banggai Regency, Central Sulawesi, still faces serious challenges related to nutritional problems such as anemia and chronic energy deficiency (SEZ). Low nutritional literacy and unbalanced food consumption habits also worsen their nutritional status, especially during puberty when nutritional needs increase significantly. This service activity aims to increase the understanding and awareness of young women on the principles of balanced nutrition through a participatory educational approach. The implementation of the activity was carried out at SMP Negeri 2 Bunta, Simpang Raya District, involving 30 students in grades VII and VIII as well as UKS supervisory teachers. The intervention included providing material on "Fill My Plate", the 4 pillars of balanced nutrition, and the risk of nutritional disorders in adolescents. The material was delivered in the form of interactive counseling using leaflet media, accompanied by knowledge measurement through pre-test, post-test, and one-week post-activity evaluation. The results of the activity showed a significant increase in students' understanding of the principles of balanced nutrition, with the knowledge score of the good category increasing from 40% to 87%. Most of the participants were able to mention the composition of the meal portion, the importance of breakfast, restrictions on fast food consumption, and the need to drink enough water every day. This activity also has an impact on increasing the capacity of teachers in assisting and monitoring the health status of students through the UKS program. Teachers become more active in conducting periodic counseling and recording the nutritional development of female students on a regular basis. School-based balanced nutrition counseling has been proven to be effective in improving adolescent nutritional literacy. This educational model can be replicated in other regions with cross-sectoral support such as education offices, health centers, and village governments, to support the achievement of sustainable development goals in the health sector.

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) remains a significant public health challenge in Indonesia, with the increasing prevalence of cases every year. One of the key methods of controlling the spread of DHF is to target the vector, Aedes aegypti mosquitoes, by eradicating their larvae. However, the widespread and continuous use of chemical larvicides has raised concerns regarding the development of mosquito resistance and environmental pollution. This community service activity aimed to provide students at Duta Karya Vocational High School with knowledge and practical skills to use natural, eco-friendly alternatives for controlling mosquito larvae, focusing on papaya seeds (Carica papaya) and alum as natural larvicides. The methods for this activity included interactive counseling, a demonstration on how to produce larvicides using papaya seeds and alum, and an engaging question-and-answer session. Thirty 12th-grade students from the Pharmacy class participated in this activity. The results revealed that the activity was highly effective in increasing the students' understanding and practical ability to independently create and apply natural larvicides. The students expressed a high level of enthusiasm and interest in the topic, actively participating in the discussions and demonstrations. As a result of this community service, the school has expressed interest in incorporating this activity into its School Health Unit (UKS) work program, which will further promote the use of natural, sustainable methods for controlling mosquito populations. The students, now equipped with the necessary skills, are ready to become "jumantik" cadres—community health volunteers responsible for monitoring and preventing mosquito larvae development. This initiative also raised awareness about utilizing organic waste, such as papaya seeds, to create valuable products for the prevention of DHF.
