This study aims to measure the Community Satisfaction Index  for PT INALUM's CSR program in Kuala Tanjung Village, Batu Bara Regency, North Sumatra Province. The Hikayat Si Kuta program serves as an evaluation instrument and basis for sustainable planning, which contributes significantly to improving the community's quality of life through an integrated program of education, training, and local capacity building. The research approach uses a quantitative method by distributing a Community Satisfaction Index questionnaire to program recipients. The study results show high satisfaction scores in most aspects, but there are critical challenges in the program's independence and sustainability, indicating potential dependency. This is because one of the programs has only been running for 1-2 years, so in the early stages the impact of its independence is not yet clearly visible. These findings confirm that corporate social responsibility (CSR) has had a tangible impact, but strategies are still needed to strengthen the program's social resilience. This article recommends the development of a roadmap for strengthening the capacity of assisted groups so that the implementation of corporate social responsibility (CSR) programs can have a more sustainable and inclusive impact.

This study explains the relationship between law, legal science, and regulations in building a national legal system that is effective, fair, and responsive to societal needs. As a state based on the rule of law, Indonesia utilizes law as the basis for regulating all aspects of national and state life. Legal science plays a crucial role as a guide in the law-making process, from planning, drafting, deliberation, ratification, and evaluation. This study uses a normative juridical approach by studying various legal theories, such as the Stufenbau des Recht (The Law of Law) by Hans Kelsen and Hans Nawiasky, the theory of law as a tool for community development by Roscoe Pound, and the principles contained in Law Number 13 of 2022 concerning the Formation of Legislation. The results show that legal quality is highly dependent on the application of legal science principles, such as clarity of purpose, transparency, and public participation. However, challenges remain, such as poor coordination between institutions, low-quality academic papers, and minimal public participation in the legislative process. Therefore, the consistent application of legal science is essential to produce legal products that are consistent, non-contradictory, and capable of guaranteeing justice and legal certainty. In conclusion, collaboration between law, legal science, and legislation is key to creating a democratic national legal system based on Pancasila and the 1945 Constitution.  

This study aims to describe the role of digital media in the dynamics of teaching and learning interactions in educational environments. The development of information and communication technology has brought about significant changes in the learning system, where digital media has now become an integral part of teaching and learning activities. The research method used was descriptive qualitative, with data collected through journals and books related to digital-based learning. The results indicate that digital media plays a significant role in increasing the effectiveness and flexibility of the learning process. Digital media helps teachers deliver material more engagingly, facilitates two-way communication between teachers and students, and supports faster and more efficient learning evaluation. However, the use of digital media also creates new dynamics, such as reduced direct social interaction and the emergence of challenges in maintaining student learning motivation. The effectiveness of digital learning is greatly influenced by teachers' digital literacy readiness, student discipline, and the support of school infrastructure and policies.

The rapid development of Islamic banking in Indonesia faces significant challenges in maintaining liquidity and profitability amidst dynamic capital market conditions. The urgency of this study arises from the need to examine whether traditional financial ratios, such as the Financing to Deposit Ratio (FDR) and Return on Equity (ROE), play a decisive role in influencing investment decisions, which are proxied by the Price to Earning Ratio (PER). The main objective of this research is to empirically test the effect of liquidity and profitability, both partially and simultaneously, on investment decisions in Islamic commercial banks listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the 2021–2025 period. This study adopts an associative design with a quantitative approach, utilizing secondary data from financial reports obtained from the IDX, and analyzed using multiple linear regression on 68 observation samples. The findings reveal that neither liquidity nor profitability significantly influence investment decisions, either partially or simultaneously. These results suggest that investors in the Islamic banking sector tend to prioritize non-financial factors such as sharia compliance, governance, macroeconomic conditions, and ESG trends, rather than conventional financial indicators. In conclusion, this research extends the understanding of the limitations of Signaling Theory in the sharia context and recommends the development of a more holistic investment evaluation model. Future studies are encouraged to incorporate non-financial variables for a more comprehensive analysis.

The implementation of educational policies in schools plays a pivotal role in improving the quality of teaching and learning processes. The success of these policies is determined by the readiness of educational institutions, the professional competence of teachers, and the active involvement of various supporting stakeholders. Each of these elements significantly contributes to the effectiveness of learning outcomes in the classroom. However, policy implementation often faces challenges such as inadequate infrastructure, lack of comprehensive teacher training, and a mismatch between national policies and the specific needs of local educational contexts. In this regard, schools must be able to adapt policy frameworks to suit their unique environments, ensuring that the goals of the policy are effectively aligned with students’ learning needs. Teachers play a central role as key implementers who are not only required to understand the substance of educational policies but also to apply them creatively and contextually in their classrooms. Their ability to interpret and operationalize these policies directly affects the quality of educational delivery. Furthermore, continuous evaluation is essential to measure the extent to which policies have been effectively implemented. This evaluation process serves not only as a feedback mechanism but also as a basis for future policy adjustments and improvements. It enables stakeholders to identify gaps, assess outcomes, and refine strategies to ensure sustainable educational development. In conclusion, effective policy implementation requires a holistic approach that involves institutional preparedness, teacher capability, stakeholder support, contextual adaptation, and ongoing evaluation. Without these elements working in synergy, even well-formulated policies may fall short in achieving their intended impact on educational quality and student success.

Assessment and evaluation of sanitation programs that directly involve community participation are crucial for program sustainability. The Community-Based Total Sanitation (STBM) program in Indonesia aims to foster independent hygienic behavior. Participatory approaches such as PHAST (WHO, 1998) emphasize continuous community-led monitoring and self-evaluation as a feedback mechanism. Literature studies show that empowering citizens to evaluate healthy sanitation programs enhances both knowledge and program ownership. For instance, community engagement at SD Kalidadap (Yogyakarta) reported increased participation in waste management and sanitation facility development, as well as improved sanitation awareness and behavior after outreach activities. However, challenges such as limited funding and health resources often hinder optimal participation. This article discusses a participatory evaluation framework and community strengthening strategies, including the establishment of local indicators and the role of facilitators, to support self-assessment in sanitation initiatives. Recommendations include community training, provision of simple evaluation tools, and cross-sector collaboration to improve accountability and sustainability of sanitation programs at the community level.
