The increasing snack consumption trend in Indonesia, along with the availability of processed snacks that are high in sugar, fat, and sodium but low in fiber, poses a significant challenge to digestive health. More than 40% of the global population experiences digestive disorders, often related to unhealthy eating patterns and low fiber intake. In response to this issue, an innovative healthy snack called TaroStik, made from taro vines (Colocasia esculenta) rich in fiber and nutrients, has been developed. This product comes in two forms, sticks and chips, with three flavor variants (salty, sweet, and spicy), offering a healthy snacking experience without sacrificing taste. Training on utilizing taro vines to create TaroStik was conducted in Banjarbaru, involving prospective entrepreneurs with a combined approach of theory, hands-on practice, and group discussions. Participants were trained from material selection, processing (peeling, soaking, steaming, frying), packaging, to social media marketing simulation. As a result, most participants were able to independently produce TaroStik, with some expressing intentions to continue production at a home scale. TaroStik not only provides a digestive health solution through natural snacks free of preservatives but also brings positive impacts in three areas: economy (creating business opportunities based on local ingredients), environment (reducing agricultural waste), and nutrition (increasing healthy food consumption). This innovation embodies the principles of green economy and sustainable entrepreneurship, opening new business opportunities and improving community welfare.

This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the STEM approach and the scientific approach in learning Trigonometry in terms of students’ mathematical problem-solving ability and self-efficacy. The research employed a quasi-experimental method with a nonequivalent comparison group design. The study population consisted of all Grade X MIPA students at MA Al-Ma’had An-Nur in the 2023/2024 academic year, with the sample taken from classes X MIPA 1 and X MIPA 2. Data collection instruments included pre-test and post-test assessments of mathematical problem-solving ability and a student self-efficacy questionnaire. Effectiveness criteria were based on post-test averages exceeding 75 for problem-solving ability and self-efficacy scores above 72, as well as improvements from pre-test results. Data were analyzed using the t-test at a 5% significance level to determine learning effectiveness in both groups. Differences in students’ initial conditions and treatment effects were examined using Hotelling’s T² and the N-Gain score test. An independent-sample t-test of N-Gain was used to compare the superiority between the two approaches. The results indicated that both the STEM and scientific approaches were effective in improving students’ mathematical problem-solving ability and self-efficacy. The STEM approach significantly influenced both variables and was superior in enhancing problem-solving ability, although not superior in improving students’ self-efficacy.

Electronic Medical Records (EMR) are crucial for the quality of healthcare services, but compliance remains a challenge. This study analyzed factors influencing compliance among healthcare workers at a type B private hospital in North Jakarta using a quantitative cross-sectional design with 58 respondents through total sampling. Data were obtained through questionnaires related to individual factors (age, length of service, knowledge), psychological factors (attitude, motivation), and organizational factors (leadership, work design, rewards). The results showed that 72.4% of respondents were compliant. The chi-square test revealed a significant relationship between compliance and age (p=0.042), length of service (p=0.000), knowledge (p=0.001), attitude (p=0.017), motivation (p=0.002), leadership (p=0.046), and rewards (p=0.010), while work design was not significant (p>0.05). Multivariate analysis found age, length of service, knowledge, and leadership as the dominant factors. Healthcare workers with younger age, shorter tenure, good knowledge, positive attitudes, high motivation, good leadership, supportive work designs, and adequate reward systems tend to have higher compliance rates. Improving compliance in completing EMRs depends not only on individual factors but also requires organizational support through effective leadership and management systems. Recommended interventions include improving digital literacy, regular training, strengthening a work culture that emphasizes the importance of medical documentation, and implementing peer learning strategies among healthcare workers to accelerate adaptation and share best practices in completing EMRs.

This study investigates the impact of equity crowdfunding on significant infrastructure projects in Indonesia, with a focus on those that fall under the regulatory framework outlined in POJK No. 37/POJK.04/2018. It addresses the following research question: How does equity crowdfunding contribute to Indonesia's infrastructure financing? Its narrow focus on the use of crowdfunding for infrastructure fills a gap in the literature, which often lacks empirical research unique to Indonesia. Using a mixed-method approach that combines qualitative insights from stakeholder interviews with quantitative analysis of crowdfunding data, the study finds that although equity crowdfunding has the potential to mobilize capital for infrastructure, obstacles include investor protection, regulatory compliance, and project scalability. The study emphasizes the crucial role of regulatory frameworks and specially designed financial products in determining the outcomes of crowdfunding. In the end, the study recommends changing policy to create an atmosphere that is favorable to crowdfunding, improving financial, and aiding Indonesia's sustainable development goals.

This research aims to describe the forms and functions of expressive speech acts found in the film “Perayaan Mati Rasa” by Umay Shahab. This film was chosen because it showcases various forms of emotional expression that reflect the reality of everyday communication. The method used is descriptive qualitative. The data, consisting of the characters' utterances in the film, were collected thru observation and note-taking techniques, then analyzed using Chaer's theory of speech acts. The research results indicate that there are six types of expressive speech acts in this film: expressing gratitude, apologizing, praising, showing sympathy, expressing anger/disappointment, and praying/hoping. Each type of speech act has a different social function, such as building emotional closeness, improving social relationships, expressing empathy, and affirming moral values in interactions between characters. This finding suggests that the film “Perayaan Mati Rasa” not only represents emotional conflict but also depicts the dynamics of human communication laden with social and psychological values. The results of this research are expected to serve as a reference in pragmatic studies and discourse analysis, particularly in the analysis of expressive speech acts in literary works or film media.

This community service activity aims to strengthen the leadership capacity of youth and congregations at the Faithful Christian Church of Indonesia (GKSI) Ampadi, West Kalimantan, through empowerment programs and training based on spiritual values. The church as a faith community has a strategic responsibility in creating leadership regeneration, but the reality on the ground shows that youth involvement in ministry is still limited. This service activity was carried out with a participatory and qualitative descriptive approach, through stages of observation, literature study, spiritual leadership training, cross-generational mentoring, and direct assistance to participants. The results of the activity showed that the low participation of youth in GKSI Ampadi was caused by a lack of structural development, the dominance of the senior generation, and the absence of a clear cadre system. Through a Bible-based leadership training program, the formation of an inclusive ministry team, and ongoing mentoring, there was a significant increase in youth involvement and synergy between congregations. In addition, this activity produced a leadership cadre roadmap as a strategic guide for the church in developing human resources for ministry. This service activity not only had an impact on improving the quality of service and congregational activity, but also strengthened the process of sustainable leadership regeneration within the local church environment. It is hoped that this empowerment model can be applied contextually by other churches to build dynamic, inclusive, and contemporary service communities.

Objectives: This study aims to analyze the direct and indirect effects of Servant Leadership on lecturers’ Job Performance through the mediating variables of Job Satisfaction, Employee Engagement, and Organizational Citizenship Behavior (Organizational Citizenship Behavior). The study also seeks to identify which mediating variable has the strongest influence in explaining the relationship between leadership and performance among lecturers in private universities. Methodology: This study applies a causal quantitative approach using a survey method with a sample of 155 lecturers from Information Technology study programs at private universities in West Java. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) to test ten research hypotheses and evaluate the mediating effects among variables. Findings: The results show that Servant Leadership has a positive influence on Job Satisfaction, Employee Engagement, and Organizational Citizenship Behavior, but does not directly affect Job Performance. Among the mediators, only Organizational Citizenship Behavior significantly mediates the relationship between Servant Leadership and Job Performance, indicating that lecturers’ voluntary behavior plays a key role in improving performance. In contrast, Job Satisfaction and Employee Engagement do not act as significant mediators. Conclusion: The findings highlight that leadership effectiveness in higher education depends on fostering Organizational Citizenship Behavior rather than relying solely on satisfaction or engagement. The study introduces the concept of Emphatic Leadership, which emphasizes empathy, accountability, and humility as essential values for leaders in academic environments. This approach offers practical insights for developing participative and humanistic leadership models to enhance lecturers’ academic performance.
