This shows how important the role of Islamic Religious Education teachers is in turning students into ethical individuals. Different from educators in other fields, these teachers bear greater responsibilities, especially in forming Islamic character.

When someone enters old age, symptoms such as senility or difficulty remembering new information often appear. This condition is known as dementia, a syndrome characterized by decreased cognitive function, behavioral changes, memory impairment, disorientation, and difficulty communicating and making decisions. This community service program aims to provide information and understanding about how to handle dementia that can be done at home. Activities are carried out through a counseling method consisting of a pre-test, education, and post-test, using leaflets and questionnaires containing questions to measure the level of understanding of participants. The results of the counseling showed an increase in participant knowledge, as seen from the comparison of the graph between the pre-test and post-test results. Education accompanied by brain gymnastics practices has been shown to have a positive impact on increasing participants' understanding of dementia and how to handle it. It is hoped that this counseling will continue to provide benefits to participants and can be applied in everyday life.

This literature review examines the effectiveness of Brain Gym as an intervention to improve children's learning concentration. Brain Gym is a series of physical movements developed to enhance brain function. Several studies in the last decade have suggested that Brain Gym activities can positively influence children's attention span and cognitive performance, particularly in educational settings. Through a review of 20 empirical studies published between 2015 and 2024, this study finds consistent evidence of improved focus and academic engagement among children who participated in regular Brain Gym exercises. The findings suggest that Brain Gym can serve as a complementary approach to conventional teaching strategies, especially for elementary-level learners. Implications for educators and future research are discussed.

Thyroid crisis is an acute, life-threatening form of thyrotoxicosis and represents one of the severe complications of hyperthyroidism. During pregnancy, thyroid disorders have unique characteristics due to structural and functional changes in the thyroid gland that occur throughout gestation. Pregnancy can influence the course of thyroid disease, and conversely, thyroid disorders may also impact pregnancy outcomes. In this case report, we present a 30-year-old patient, Mrs. F, gravida 5, abortus 4, para 0, who presented with palpitations, fever, restlessness, and a history of uncontrolled hyperthyroidism. The diagnosis of thyroid crisis was made clinically using the Burch & Wartofsky score instrument. Management of thyroid crisis in pregnant women requires a multidisciplinary approach, close monitoring, administration of antithyroid drugs, β-blockers, and other supportive therapies, while also considering fetal safety.

The debate surrounding the inclusion of law enforcement agencies in the structure of Danantara has become a hotly debated discourse among the public because it is considered an attempt to minimize the duties and authority of law enforcement agencies in conducting oversight. Based on a review of the concept of separation of powers and the principle of checks and balances and the concept of COI, it can be said that the inclusion of law enforcement agencies in the structure of Danantara does not have a clear urgency because in fact, without being included as Danantara's oversight and accountability committee, the police and the prosecutor's office as law enforcement agencies should be able to carry out their duties properly in terms of overseeing Danantara. In fact, being involved in Danantara will further dwarf the functions of the police and prosecutor's office because they are easily involved in organizational conflicts of interest, which has become a disease of this nation. The inclusion of the prosecutor's office and the police as oversight and accountability committees also oversteps the legal instruments that provide the legal umbrella for the existence of these two institutions. The inclusion of law enforcement agencies in Danantara's structure could also create an imbalance of power. The government argues as if the inclusion of the police and prosecutor's office as Danantara's oversight and accountability committees strengthens the commitment to accountable and transparent management of state assets and maintains balance and control over Danantara.

This study aims to analyze the representation of religious moderation values in the Islamic Religious Education (PAI) textbook for grade VII at the junior high school level published by the Ministry of Education and Culture in the Merdeka Curriculum. The research method used in this research is a qualitative approach with descriptive research type. Data collection techniques are carried out through literature review and document analysis. This research will also use triangulation techniques to ensure data accuracy.  The results show that this textbook successfully conveys the values of religious moderation in a way that is appropriate to the Indonesian context which is rich in diversity. The value of national commitment is emphasized through teaching about the importance of maintaining national unity, while the value of tolerance and interfaith cooperation is reflected in materials that respect differences in beliefs and invite students to coexist peacefully. In addition, the value of anti-violence in religion is also integrated by promoting the principles of peace and compassion, as well as attitudes that avoid extremism. The book also introduces respect for local cultures that are in line with religious principles, to create a society that is inclusive, peaceful, and able to maintain social harmony. Thus, PAI textbooks in the Merdeka Curriculum not only function as a tool for religious learning, but also as a means of building student character that emphasizes the values of religious moderation in everyday life.

This research examines the implementation of electronic signatures and e-notarization within Indonesia's notarial legal framework, analyzing the tensions between technological innovation and traditional notarial principles. Indonesia has established basic legal recognition for electronic signatures through Law No. 11/2008 on Electronic Information and Transactions (as amended by Law No. 19/2016) and conceptually acknowledged cyber notary in the explanation of Article 15(3) of Law No. 2/2014 on Notary Positions which mentions "the authority to certify transactions conducted electronically". However, significant regulatory and practical challenges persist due to contradictions between digital concepts and traditional notarial requirements such as physical presence during the notarial process. The research reveals Indonesia lags behind many jurisdictions with similar civil law traditions in e-notarization implementation where the integration of digital elements into notarial systems has enhanced efficiency while maintaining security standards. This study proposes a balanced implementation approach that preserves essential notarial functions of authentication and legal certainty while leveraging technology to enhance accessibility and efficiency, requiring legislative reforms, technical standardization, institutional development, and professional training to create a comprehensive e-notarization framework suited to Indonesia's legal context.

This study aims to analyze the syntactic structure of sentences in english interactions between hotel receptionists and foreign guests. Specifically, it focuses on identifying sentence types, levels of sentence complexity, and syntactic functions that support professional communication at the reception desk. The data were collected from transcripts of 10 authentic interactions and 10 simulated conversations involving five professional hotel receptionists and five foreign guests with intermediate to advanced english proficiency. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed, with audio recordings transcribed and analyzed to identify dominant syntactic patterns. The results revealed that simple and compound sentences were the most frequently used, particularly in greeting, offering assistance, and clarifying information. Complex sentences appeared more often in handling guest complaints and explaining hotel policies. These findings suggest that mastery of varied syntactic structures enhances communication effectiveness in hospitality services. The study’s results are expected to contribute to the development of teaching materials for reception courses and communication skills training for hotel receptionists in the hospitality industry.

The code of ethics of the advocate profession plays an important role in maintaining the existence of this profession as a respected officium nobile. As part of the justice system, advocates are not only required to have legal expertise, but also to maintain integrity and morality through compliance with the code of ethics. This article discusses the urgency of implementing the code of ethics of the advocate profession, its strategic function in regulating relations with clients, courts, and the community, and the challenges it faces. Enforcement of the code of ethics is carried out through supervision of professional organizations and the Honorary Council to prevent violations that can tarnish the reputation of the profession. Factors such as legal ethics education for prospective advocates, harmonization of codes of ethics between organizations, and sanction mechanisms are the main concerns in strengthening its implementation. In addition, the digital era brings new challenges in the form of public perception of the advocate profession influenced by social media. This article highlights the importance of collaboration between educational institutions, professional organizations, and advocates in building an ethical culture and increasing public trust. Enforcement of the code of ethics not only maintains the honor of individual advocates, but also protects public trust in the legal system as a whole.  

This study analyzes the symbolic meaning in the lyrics of the song "Halu" by Feby Putri using Ferdinand de Saussure's semiotic approach. The purpose of the study is to reveal the relationship between the signifier and the signified in the song lyrics to understand the emotional and cultural messages contained therein. The method used is descriptive qualitative analysis with a focus on linguistic signs in the lyric text. The results of the study show that the song "Halu" utilizes metaphors (such as "candu" and "bayang-bayang") to represent one-sided love, illusion, and emotional alienation. The lyrics of the song are not only a personal expression of the creator, but also reflect the collective experience of the younger generation in interpreting unrealized relationships. This study concludes that popular music, through its semiotic structure, functions as a complex medium of cultural communication. Suggestions for further research include exploring the interaction of musical elements with lyrics and the application of other semiotic theories to enrich the analysis. These findings also emphasize the importance of media literacy in understanding music not only as entertainment, but also as a cultural product that is full of meaning.

Using smartphones in interpersonal communication among adolescents is now commonplace. Many teenagers who follow the flow of communication media in technology choose smartphones as a more effective interpersonal communication medium. Compared to other forms of communication, interpersonal communication occurs personally, in face-to-face situations, and through media. Interpersonal communication is fundamental since it permits it to require place dialogic communication. Exchange may be a shape of interpersonal communication that appears in the event of interaction. Those included in this communication frame are double-functioning, each being the speaker and the audience, on the other hand. This report analyzes adolescents’ interpersonal communication culture in the smartphone-use era based on this statement. The method used is the phenomenological method. The conclusion of this study indicates that the current adolescent interpersonal communication culture is more influenced by digital technology than direct interaction. Therefore, efforts are needed to foster awareness of the importance of maintaining a healthy quality of interpersonal communication amid technological advances.

The Snail Canning Industry has the potential to impact the environment if wastewater with high organic compound content is not treated first. This study aims to analyze the performance of the Snail Canning Industry Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) based on BOD, COD, and TSS parameters. The method used is descriptive, with primary data obtained through interviews and secondary data from laboratory test results. Measurements were taken at the inlet and outlet points of the WWTP, then compared with the quality standards based on the Regulation of the Minister of Environment No. 5 of 2014. The results showed that the WWTP succeeded in reducing the concentration of BOD from 201 mg/L to 6 mg/L, COD from 315 mg/L to 24 mg/L, and TSS from 25 mg/L to 6 mg/L. The reduction efficiency of each parameter was 97.01% for BOD, 92.38% for COD, and 76% for TSS. All outlet results met the established quality standards. This indicates that the wastewater treatment process at the IPAL functions effectively in reducing the levels of pollutant parameters in wastewater.

The large number of cattle breeders in Indonesia has positive and negative values. Cattle farmers generally produce livestock waste such as cow rumen. Cow rumen can be used as a starter for alternative biogas energy production, and cabbage vegetable waste has the potential to be used as raw material for making biogas, because it contains nutrients such as crude protein (PK) 22.47%, crude fat (LK) 3.05%, crude fiber (SK) 12.09%, dry matter 10.22% and extract material without nitrogen 34.96%. Apart from that, in this research cow rumen and EM4 were also used as starters for the anaerobic fermentation process. The cow's rumen contains methane bacteria, namely Methanosarcina sp, and the cow's rumen also contains quite high levels of organic compounds with a COD value of 17,183 mg/l. Effective Microorganisms (EM4) are bacteria whose function is to accelerate the degradation process of organic materials. The aim of this research is to design a biodigester, and carry out biodigester design trials. The research methods carried out are COD analysis, CH4 analysis and pH analysis. The results showed that the percentage of CH4 increased in a mixture of 100% cow rumen, because the total COD value in the substrate was directly proportional to the addition of the cow rumen composition. This can be seen from the total COD in 100% beef rumen starter of 1175 ppm.

Today, higher education is one of the pillars of development and economic growth for every country in the world. The absence of innovation in higher education is one of the primary problems that Iraqi universities confront and still unable to overcome. This situation could be attributed to the dearth of strategic innovation programs and a lack of creativity in lecturing. Therefore, this study proposes a framework that fits innovation practices and employee creativity into the organizational performance of Misan University in Iraq. Quantitative methods were used to test the hypotheses and validate the fitness of the conceptual framework with the empirical data. Simple random sampling technique was used in the survey procedure. The study sample includes 500 lecturers, whereas 422 valid questionnaires have been included in the data analysis. The results show that innovation practices and creativity have a significant effect on the organizational performance of Misan University. These findings provide evidence that achieving superior performance in higher education no longer depends on the deployment of tangible assets like financial resources or the number of academic staff and faculty, but also on intangible assets such as creative lecturing and adopting innovation practices in the learning process. Thus, this study recommends that higher education institutions in Iraq focus on recruiting creative lecturers who can improve students' learning ability by promoting new ways of learning scientific materials in parallel with an innovation strategy in all organizational functions and processes.

Intellectual Property (IP) plays a crucial role in fostering fair business competition. Trademarks as a element of IP serve as distinguishing identifiers that guarantee product quality. In addition, trademarks function as marketing tools in competitive markets and provide protection against bad faith actions by other parties. To obtain legal protection, a trademark must be registered in accordance with statutory requirements. A trademark application may be rejected if these requirements are not fulfilled. A common reason for rejection is the existence of substantial similarity to a previously registered mark or an earlier-filed application for similar goods and/or services. Therefore, clear and consistent standards for determining substantial similarity are essential to ensure legal certainty for applicants.
