This article explores the strategies used by early childhood teachers at TK Pelangi in managing learning activities based on children’s needs and the outcomes of training programs they have attended. The main focus is on how teachers apply training outcomes into daily classroom practice while adjusting to each child's developmental stage and individual characteristics. At TK Pelangi, teachers plan learning activities by considering each child’s interests, talents, and specific needs. In practice, they create a dynamic, enjoyable, and contextual learning environment to help children better absorb the material. Training outcomes are used as a foundation to develop more innovative methods, media, and approaches. Continuous evaluation is carried out to assess the effectiveness of the strategies. The findings show that managing learning based on children's needs and training results significantly improves the quality of teaching interactions and positively contributes to the overall development of children at TK Pelangi.  

One of the effective learning methods is the development of media and learning resources. The use of interesting and appropriate media for children in MI/SD is very important because children tend to learn through visuals and audio. Learning resources and learning media are very important to increase student motivation, make learning easier to understand, and make learning active and fun. Using a literature study methodology, this study investigates the ideas, roles, and importance of media and learning resources in the learning process. The results show how important the role of teachers is in selecting and developing learning media, as well as how important it is to manage a learning resource center to ensure high-quality basic education.

Risk control mechanisms in murabahah and mudharabah financing are implemented to anticipate potential risks arising from the customer's position. The objective is to uphold sharia principles while ensuring that the mitigation efforts by Sharia Rural Financing Banks (BPRS) provide advantages for both the bank and the wider community, particularly the customers. This qualitative case study investigates BPRS Madina in Yogyakarta. The findings reveal that BPRS Madina adopts several approaches to mitigate risks in murabahah and mudharabah financing. First, it verifies the completeness of financing documents using available data sources. Second, it checks for any history of problematic financing by the customer. Third, when necessary, the bank conducts restructuring to minimize risk. Additionally, BPRS Madina carries out risk control measures based on DSN MUI Fatwa No. 04/DSN-MUI/IV/2000 on Murabahah Financing and No. 07/DSN-MUI/IV/2000 on Mudharabah. While Islamic financial institutions do not inherently require guarantees in financing, they are permitted to request collateral to prevent losses. This collateral is not intended to ensure full compliance with the contract terms but rather to safeguard the return of the capital provided. Lastly, the risk management strategies employed by BPRS Madina for murabahah and mudharabah financing are deemed effective, as less than 1% of customers currently encounter issues, and operational risks remain well-managed.    

This research aims to analyze the impact of family socio-economic conditions on the interest in learning of preschool children (ages 3-6) at KB Darussalam Sidoarjo. Interest in learning at an early age is an important foundation for children's cognitive and socio-emotional development in the future. However, this interest does not exist in isolation but is greatly influenced by the child's immediate environment, namely the family and its socio-economic conditions. Abraham Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs theory is used as a conceptual framework to understand how the fulfillment of children's basic needs, which is often related to socio-economic conditions, affects their motivation and interest in learning. This study employs a qualitative approach with a case study design, focusing on KB Darussalam Sidoarjo. Data is collected through in-depth interviews with parents/guardians and teachers, as well as participatory observation of children in the learning environment. The research results show that the socio-economic conditions of families have a significant and multifaceted impact on the learning interest of preschool children. Economic limitations can hinder the fulfillment of children's physiological needs and their sense of safety, which directly reduces their energy and focus on learning. In addition, socio-economic conditions affect the quality of parent-child interactions and the availability of learning stimulation at home, which are crucial to fostering a sense of love, belonging, and appreciation in children. An environment that inadequately supports basic needs tends to result in lower levels of interest in learning.

Until now, scavenger children are still often underestimated because of their various problems, including education. In fact, in accordance with the concept of lifelong learning, there is no such thing as too young, too old, anywhere, anytime, and anyone, including children of scavengers, can learn. This research aims to determine the extent of the implementation of non-formal education services by the San't Egidio community to realize lifelong learning for scavenger children in Block 0 Yogyakarta. The method used in this research is qualitative with descriptive analysis. Data collection through observation and interviews. The subjects in this research were scavenger children who attended non-formal education and the informant subjects were parents and members of the San't Egidio community. This research resulted in the finding that the non-formal education services provided by members of the San't Egidio community were in the form of tutoring for scavenger children. By providing tutoring, scavenger children become accustomed to learning, and can develop their knowledge and creativity.

This study aims to analyse the correlations between parental support, motivation, and self-confidence.

It correlates with 33.6%. It can be concluded that this research hypothesis, "There is a correlation between parental support, motivation, and self-confidence of athletes at Flam Aquatic Kediri swimming club”, is accepted. The higher the level of parental support and motivation given to the athletes, the higher their confidence in swimming will be.

This study aims to examine the Islamic perspective on the process of electing leaders, focusing on the hadith narrated by Al-Bukhari that warns of the dangers of entrusting authority to those who are not qualified. Using a descriptive-analytical method with a normative juridical approach, this research analyzes primary sources such as the hadiths in Sahih Al-Bukhari and relevant statutory regulations, supported by secondary sources from related scholarly literature. The findings reveal that leadership in Islam is a great trust (amanah) that demands strict fulfillment of Shari'ah criteria, including justice, trustworthiness, knowledge, and honesty. Entrusting leadership to incompetent individuals may lead to widespread social and political collapse, as indicated by the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) in his hadith. Furthermore, the community’s negligence in electing suitable leaders is considered a collective sin that significantly affects societal stability. Therefore, Muslims must exercise greater vigilance, critical thinking, and responsibility in choosing their leaders to maintain social order in line with the principles of shura and Islamic values.

This study aims to analyze the effect of high-lob technique on petanque sport pointing using a concrete field surface. The method used is descriptive research with implementation at the Petanque Laboratory of Surabaya State University. The subjects of the study were five Unesa petanque athletes who were selected based on their technical skills. Data collection techniques include field observation, skill tests, documentation, and data analysis using the Kinovea and Capcut applications. The results showed that at a distance of 6 meters, the release angle was 63.5°, the height was 3.53 m, the rolling distance was 35 cm, and the final result was 8.5 cm. At a distance of 7 meters, the release angle was 63.4°, the height was 4.01 m, the rolling distance was 53 cm, and the final result was 10.4 cm. At a distance of 8 meters, the release angle was 62.3°, the height was 3.99 m, the rolling distance was 59 cm, and the final result was 13.4 cm. Meanwhile, at a distance of 9 meters, the release angle is 60.3°, the height is 4.16 m, the roll is 53 cm, and the final result is 19.2 cm. All parameters have met the effectiveness criteria based on existing references, except for the rolling distances at 7, 8, and 9 meters which exceed the ideal limit. These results imply that adjusting the drop point and increasing the angle and height of the bounce can optimize the results of the high-lob pointing technique.

This study aims to determine the characteristics of somatotype and body composition of swimmers from Flam Aquatics Club in Kediri City. A quantitative descriptive approach was used with a cross-sectional study design. The sample consisted of 10 swimmers aged 9–17 years, selected through purposive sampling. Somatotype was measured using the Heath-Carter method, while body composition was assessed using a Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) scale. Data analysis was performed using Microsoft Excel 2012. The results showed that male swimmers were predominantly of the Central somatotype (4 athletes), while female swimmers were evenly distributed between Endomorphic Ectomorph and Ectomorphic Endomorph types (2 athletes each). The average body composition of male swimmers included muscle mass of 34.48 kg, bone mass of 1.88 kg, fat mass of 5.07 kg, and body fat percentage of 10.65%. For female swimmers, the average muscle mass was 27.7 kg, bone mass 1.5 kg, fat mass 5.25 kg, and body fat percentage 15.08%. It can be concluded that male athletes tend to have a Central somatotype, while female athletes are equally divided between two somatotype categories. The highest bone and fat mass in female athletes was found in those with the Ectomorphic Endomorph type.

This study aims to analyze the nutritional status and dietary needs of students aged 7–10 years at SDN 3 Sesetan. Using a quantitative descriptive survey method, the research involved total sampling of all 86 second-grade students (40 boys and 46 girls). Data were collected using a stadiometer and weighing scale. Descriptive percentage analysis was used to interpret the data. The results showed that among the participants, 3 students (4%) were classified as severely obese, 2 students (2%) as mildly obese, 32 students (37%) had ideal nutritional status, and 49 students (57%) were underweight. The average daily calorie requirement was 1,935.50 kcal. Macronutrient analysis indicated an average daily requirement of 1,195.01 kcal from carbohydrates, 298.75 kcal from protein, and 497.92 kcal from fat. These findings reveal that a significant number of students have not yet reached optimal nutritional status. The variability in nutritional needs suggests the importance of attention and collaboration from both physical education (PJOK) teachers and parents to support students' health and development.

The purpose of this study is to describe and compare the literary structures of Sindhunata's novel Anak Bajang Menggiring Angin and S. Sularso's Ramayana using an objective-structural approach. The study's focus is on intrinsic factors, specifically themes and penokohan, as well as reflections of the social values of Jawa culture that are present in both karyas. This study uses a kualitatif deskriptif method with the content analysis technique applied to two novel texts as the primary data. The study's findings indicate that both karyas have a common interest in discussing traditional topics such as the relationship between kebaikan and kejahatan, cinta sejati, pengorbanan, and nilai kepemimpinan. However, there are differences in alur kelengkapan, narasi kedalaman, and tokoh penggambaran. Anak Bajang Menggiring Angin presents the Ramayana in a more precise and symbolic manner, while Sularso's version of the story emphasizes the traditional forms of ungkapan and Jawa symbols. The results of this study are presented in a clear and concise manner by comparing two contemporary adaptations of the classic Ramayana story with objective-structural analysis that has not yet been widely discussed. This study aims to shed light on how modern sastra might serve as a local reflection of culture through traditional epik.

The SEBLAK program (Birth Certificate, Birth Registration, and Family Card) initiated by RS dr. Mohammad Zyn represents an innovation in digital-based civil registration services, aimed at improving efficiency, effectiveness, and transparency in public services related to population administration. This innovation integrates the processes of data collection, verification, and the issuance of administrative documents automatically through a digital system directly connected to the Department of Population and Civil Registration (Disdukcapil). Consequently, procedures for obtaining documents such as birth certificates and family cards can be carried out more quickly, easily, and without bureaucratic obstacles, while also providing more accurate and reliable data. The overall success of this program is supported by several key factors, including adequate technological infrastructure, continuous training for officers and the community, and effective socialization through various media and community forums. A qualitative approach was used to evaluate the implementation process and its impact on the community and hospital staff. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation, then analyzed using the Miles and Huberman (1994) model. The results indicate that the implementation of this digital system can significantly reduce the time and costs associated with document processing, improve data accuracy, and strengthen public trust in government services. Beyond operational aspects, the SEBLAK program also positively impacts increasing access to administrative services for communities in remote and hard-to-reach areas. This aligns with the goal of expanding digital services inclusively and reinforcing the role of hospitals as the initial point and center for civil registration services while enhancing community participation in fulfilling their administrative rights. However, challenges remain, including technical infrastructure limitations, a lack of sufficient training for human resources, and the need to improve data security capacity. Therefore, continuous capacity building for human resources and infrastructure development are crucial to ensure the sustainability and success of this program, which can serve as a model for innovative public services that other institutions in Indonesia can adopt.

In the context of improving the quality of early childhood education, educational management plays a central role. Effective and efficient management is able to manage various existing resources optimally so as to create a conducive and quality learning environment. In addition, management is also responsible for designing learning programs that are in accordance with the needs of child development, supervising, evaluating, and providing training and professional development for educators. Thus, the role of management is not only administrative, but also strategic in improving the quality of early childhood education services. This research is a type of literature study. Library Research refers to a series of broad and systematic activities that are closely related to various sophisticated methodologies used in careful library data collection, comprehensive reading and accurate recording of relevant information, and complex processing of various research materials. Based on the results of the literature, the data collected shows that the role of management in improving the quality of early childhood education (PAUD) is very complex and multidimensional. The studies reviewed underline the importance of comprehensive planning, including the development of relevant curricula, the provision of adequate facilities and infrastructure, and the management of quality human resources. In addition, efficient organization, effective program implementation, and structured supervision have also been shown to contribute significantly to improving the quality of PAUD.

This study aims to describe the reasons and experiences of Indonesian youth who choose to work abroad as a response to domestic employment conditions. Using a qualitative approach and case study method, four key informants who have worked abroad for two years were interviewed online. The results show that young people experience obstacles in obtaining decent work, such as a non-transparent recruitment system, the dominance of nepotism practices, low professional recognition, and limited space for development. The decision to work abroad is a form of resistance to an unfair social system, as well as an effort to build a better identity and future. These findings are analyzed using Ulrich Beck's risk society theory, which explains that individuals in the modern era face social risks due to the failure of the modernization system. This study recommends the need for reform of the employment system in Indonesia to be fairer, more inclusive, and pro-young generation.  

This research aims to analyze forms of phonological interference in the use of Indonesian by speakers of the Nias regional language in Garu II, Medan Amplas. The background of this research is based on the fact that the Nias people, as a bilingual group, often experience difficulties in pronouncing Indonesian according to the rules, resulting in symptoms of phonological deviations such as deletions, changes and additions of phonemes. Using qualitative descriptive methods and triangulation techniques (observation, interviews, documentation), this research found three main forms of interference: (1) deletion of the final phoneme (example: "jalan" becomes "jala"), (2) changes in phonemes (example: "kaya" becomes “kayo”), and (3) the addition of phonemes (example: “although” becomes “walampun”). Factors causing interference include the social environment, first language habits, low vocabulary mastery, and weak loyalty to the second language. It is hoped that the results of this research can enrich the study of phonology and become a reference in developing Indonesian for bilingual communities.

Traffic accidents are one of the leading causes of death in Indonesia, particularly involving motorcycle riders. Female drivers are among the vulnerable groups because they often pay less attention to safety aspects such as wearing helmets, using turn signals, and obeying traffic signs. This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of short movie media in improving safety riding knowledge among PKK mothers in Tapelan Village. The research employed the Research and Development (RnD) method using the ADDIE model, which consists of analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation stages. The subjects were 50 PKK mothers. The pre-test results showed an average knowledge score of 51.1%, which increased to 89.5% in the post-test, with an effectiveness rate of 79%. Short movie media was considered highly feasible as an educational tool because it effectively attracted attention and facilitated understanding of the material.
