Due to its effect on the caliber of generations to come, iron deficiency anemia in teenage females is one of Indonesia's most pressing reproductive health concerns. Adolescents' awareness to autonomously adopt preventative actions is shaped mostly by their knowledge. The purpose of this research is to determine whether there is a correlation between the prevalence of anemia among teenage females in Boyolali Regency and their degree of education. Using a cross-sectional design, this study employs quantitative correlational analytic methods. An accidental sampling approach was used to obtain a sample size of 80 respondents from the population of seventh grade female pupils. A digital POCT device was utilized to quantify the incidence of anemia variables based on hemoglobin (Hb) levels, while a structured questionnaire instrument was employed to gather data for knowledge variables. The Chi-Square test was used to assess the bivariate data analysis. According to the univariate analysis, 62.5% of the participants (50 respondents) had a decent level of knowledge, and 73.8% of the participants (59 respondents) did not suffer from anemia (Hb > 12 g/dL). With a p-value of 0.000 (p < 0.05), the results of the bivariate test were generated. Anemia is more common among female students at MTs Al Ihsan Doglo who have a higher degree of expertise, according to this study. School districts should keep an eye on students' iron pill use and improve their nutrition education programs.

This study explores how Generation Z in Indonesia produces and spreads narratives of micro-interfaith harmony through the TikTok platform. Amid growing social polarization in digital spaces, casual and personal tolerance content created by Gen Z offers a new approach to building social cohesion. Using a qualitative netnography method, this research observes 20 viral videos with over 10,000 views during the 2024-2025 Ramadan period, including the War Takjil trend and the #LoginLintasIman campaign, as forms of affective digital citizenship. The findings reveal that TikTok’s algorithmic logic, driven by emotional engagement, allows grassroots narratives of tolerance to reach broad audiences organically. Within this ecosystem, values of pluralism and solidarity are not shaped by formal institutions but emerge from the participatory dynamics and digital habitus of Gen Z. This study concludes that a new form of digital interfaith citizenship is emerging, termed algorithmic harmony, where tolerance is fostered through affective interactions, viral distribution, and the everyday media practices of youth. The findings provide new insights for media studies, diversity education, and digital tolerance discourse.

TPS 3R is a community-based waste management approach aimed at reducing waste generation through reduce, reuse, and recycle activities. However, the operational sustainability of TPS 3R still faces several challenges,including  waste processing effectiveness, and community participation. This study aims to analyze the community’s Willingness to Pay (WTP) for waste management fees and to formulate priority recommendations for improving the performance of TPS 3R Banjar Sugihan using the Quality Function Deployment (QFD) method. The research was conducted in Banjar Sugihan Village, Tandes District, Surabaya City, involving 563 household respondents.

The results showed that the community’s WTP ranged from IDR 16,000 to IDR 19,000 per month. If applied to all 3,758 households in Banjar Sugihan Village, the potential retribution revenue is estimated to reach IDR 60,128,000–IDR 71,402,000 per month. The QFD analysis indicated that the priority strategies for improving TPS 3R performance include enhancing infrastructure facilities, optimizing waste sorting and processing, increasing waste processing capacity, strengthening human resource capacity, and implementing a WTP-based retribution system. Therefore, the implementation of a WTP-based retribution system and priority strategies derived from QFD analysis are expected to support the sustainability of waste management at TPS 3R Banjar Sugihan.

The rapid development of digital technology has significantly transformed the ways in which faith is experienced, particularly in the lives of adolescents. From the perspectives of digital religion and mediatization of religion, digital space is no longer merely a medium, but has become a cultural arena that actively shapes religious practices and meanings. The study aims to analyze these dynamics, especially within the context of Generation Alpha, by examining the opportunities and challenges that emerge in the lived experience of faith in the digital age. The findings indicate that digital environments offer creative, participatory, and contextual opportunities for evangelization, enabling young people to engage actively in constructing their religious experiences. However, this dynamic is inherently ambivalent, as it also risks reducing the meaning of faith to symbolic, instant, and less sacramentally grounded experiences, detached from the communal life of the Church. Furthermore, the formation of religious identity in digital spaces tends to be fluid and performative, potentially leading to superficial relationships and fragmented identities. Therefore, technologically mediated religious experience should be understood as a bridge, rather than a substitute, for authentic faith encounters. The Church is thus called to adopt adaptive and reflective pastoral approaches, positioning media as a means of fostering communio without obscuring the essence of faith. An integrative approach through the synergy of Church, family, and educational institutions is essential to balance digital literacy and spiritual depth, ensuring that adolescent faith continues to grow reflectively and remains rooted in real-life experience.

The synergy between these two elements creates a “Digital Shepherding” model, where the digital space is transformed into a theological medium for character formation and spiritual transmission. The study concludes that the effectiveness of leader multiplication is determined by a shift from person-centered leadership to a system-inspired approach that integrates digital capabilities with biblical integrity. Strategic implications suggest that churches must adopt a digital mindset and establish digital leadership laboratories to ensure the sustainability of their mission among Generation Z.

The rise of the digital age has brought significant changes to leadership dynamics and leadership development patterns within the context of Christian ministry. This paper addresses the critical issue of leadership succession failure, which is driven by a generational gap between senior leaders and young leaders-in-training, as well as the underutilization of technology in the mentoring process. Using a descriptive qualitative approach through literature review, state-of-the-art analysis, and theological synthesis, this study assesses the relevance and effectiveness of the multiplicative leadership model as a solution to the leadership succession problem. The analysis reveals that multiplicative leadership—which emphasizes discipleship, intensive mentoring, delegation of responsibility, and intergenerational collaboration—can bridge the generational gap while accelerating the multiplication of leaders in the digital age. The integration of digital technologies, such as virtual mentoring, digital training modules, and collaborative media, has proven capable of expanding the impact of the leadership development process and enhancing relational closeness between generations. This paper concludes that the multiplicative leadership model is a strategic and theological approach aligned with the biblical mandate to produce leaders capable of developing other leaders, and is relevant for addressing the challenges of contemporary Christian leadership.

This study aims to develop a Strategic Learning Enabler model by reconfiguring the role of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) units to enhance Generation Z student productivity in digital higher education. The research is motivated by the gap between digital transformation demands and the predominantly technical-operational role of ICT units. Using a quantitative explanatory design, this study examines the causal relationships among ICT role reconfiguration, adaptive learning systems, and student productivity. Data were collected through questionnaires distributed to Generation Z students engaged in digital learning environments and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The findings indicate that Generation Z students exhibit high responsiveness to structured tasks but lack continuity in learning activities due to weak self-regulated learning. The study also reveals that adaptive learning systems significantly mediate the relationship between ICT transformation and student productivity. The proposed model emphasizes digital governance, learning analytics, and micro-tasking structures as key components in building sustainable academic productivity. This research contributes both theoretically and practically by offering an institutional framework for digital learning transformation in higher education.

This study provides benefits as a basis for developing gastronomic tourism and strategies for preserving traditional cuisine through education, collaboration, and the use of modern promotional media.

The determination of a minimum marriage age is a central issue in Indonesian family law and Islamic legal discourse, particularly regarding the prevention of health, social, and psychological risks associated with child marriage. This study analyzes the alignment between the legal requirement of a minimum age of 19, as stipulated in Law No. 16 of 2019 and Constitutional Court Decision No. 22/PUU-XV/2017, and the framework of maqāṣid sharī‘ah, especially the hierarchical structure of dharuriyyāt, ḥājiyyāt, and taḥsīniyyāt. Employing a normative juridical method supported by extensive literature review, this research examines statutory regulations, classical and contemporary Islamic legal sources, works on maqāṣid, and empirical data from national and international institutions. The findings demonstrate that the minimum age of 19 substantively accords with maqāṣid sharī‘ah: at the dharuriyyāt level, it safeguards life, intellect, and lineage from medical, psychological, and social harm; at the ḥājiyyāt level, it prevents economic hardship, emotional instability, and the inability of young couples to assume household roles; and at the taḥsīniyyāt level, it preserves human dignity, ethical conduct, and the sanctity of marriage. Consequently, the regulation is not a departure from classical Islamic jurisprudence but rather an implementation of public interest (maṣlaḥah) adapted to contemporary societal realities. This study affirms that integrating maqasid-based reasoning into public policy strengthens the protection of families and future generations in Indonesia.

This study aims to analyze the comparison of the impact of financial and non-financial compensation effectiveness on turnover intention among Generation Z employees. The high turnover rates within Generation Z, despite receiving adequate financial compensation, indicate a shift in their preferences regarding the workforce. Generation Z tends to seek more than just financial compensation, such as flexibility, a supportive work environment, and opportunities for growth. The method used in this study is a literature review, analyzing various relevant scholarly journals related to strategic compensation, Generation Z characteristics, and turnover intention. The research findings show that non-financial compensation has a more significant impact in reducing turnover intention among Generation Z compared to financial compensation. Therefore, companies need to focus on aspects such as work-life balance, career development opportunities, and an inclusive and supportive work culture. These findings provide valuable insights that companies should adopt a more holistic reward approach through the total rewards concept, which includes both financial and non-financial compensation, in order to enhance loyalty and retention of Generation Z employees in the long term.

Generators are one of the important auxiliary aircraft needed on ships for power generation. During the operation of a diesel generator, continuous rotation occurs resulting in friction and erosion of the moving parts. The supporting factor for the smooth running of a diesel engine is a lubrication system that is supported by good lubricating oil quality, besides that it also needs to be supported by an adequate and good cooling system. The use of lubricants is one of the most important factors to ensure the performance of diesel engines. The lubricant is in charge of maintaining the condition of the engine so that it remains stable. This study aims to analyze the effect of using lubricating oil beyond the operating hours limit on engine heat. Furthermore, it also discusses steps to ensure diesel engine temperatures remain normal. This research was carried out during the practice of sailing on a ship for approximately one year. This study uses a descriptive quantitative research method. The primary data obtained directly utilizes observation methods, and documentation. Secondary data was obtained from existing articles and journals. The data analysis techniques used are descriptive analysis and inferential analysis. The results of this study show that the working hours of lubricating oil use have a significant influence on the increase in the temperature of diesel generator engines as evidenced by hypothesis tests on two engine units, namely AE1 and AE2. In the AE1 unit, a t-value of 18.467 with a significance of 0.000 was obtained, while in AE2 the t-value was 14.289 with a significance of 0.000. The significance value in both units is less than 0.05 so it can be concluded that the working hours of lubricated oil have a significant influence on the temperature of the genarato diesel engine on the ship.

The increasing demand for electrical energy and the limited availability of fossil fuels have driven the development of renewable energy sources, including marine current energy, which remains underutilized in coastal and remote maritime regions. This study presents the design and realization of a small-scale marine current power generation prototype using a horizontal axis propeller turbine with a NACA S814 blade profile and analyzes the effect of turbine rotational speed on electrical power output. The system converts marine current kinetic energy into mechanical energy through turbine rotation and subsequently into DC electrical energy using a generator, which is stabilized by a Buck–Boost Converter and Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) for charging a 12 VDC battery. Real-time monitoring of electrical and mechanical parameters is implemented using an Internet of Things (IoT)–based system comprising an ESP32 microcontroller, a PZEM-017 sensor, and an RPM sensor. Experimental results demonstrate a positive correlation between water flow rate, turbine rotational speed, and generator output voltage. The system begins operating at a minimum flow rate of 35.2 L/s at 56 RPM, producing 0.2 V, while optimal performance is achieved at 45.3 L/s and 516 RPM, generating up to 13.3 V. These results indicate that the proposed prototype is a viable alternative renewable energy source for marine applications.

This research aims to design and develop a prototype wave power plant that utilizes the vertical motion of a buoy as a source of mechanical energy, which is then converted into electrical energy using a recoil starter mechanism. The system is designed to be installed at the stern of a prototype ship. The vertical movement of the buoy caused by ocean waves is transmitted to the recoil starter through a drive rope, producing a stable one-way rotational motion. This rotation is further transmitted to a gearbox to increase rotational speed before driving a DC generator. The electrical energy generated is stored in a 12 VDC battery, supported by a buck–booster converter to stabilize the output voltage. This study employs an experimental engineering approach to evaluate system performance based on empirical test data. The main components of the system include a buoy as a wave energy collector, a recoil starter as the initial rotating mechanism, a DC generator as the electrical energy producer, a buck–booster converter as a voltage regulator, a 12 VDC battery as an energy storage unit, and a monitoring system based on an ESP32 microcontroller integrated with a PZEM-017 sensor. Experimental results show that the recoil starter operates effectively in driving the generator under both no- load and buoy-loaded conditions. Increases in generator rotational speed are directly proportional to increases in output voltage and current. The PZEM-017 sensor demonstrates a high level of measurement accuracy, approaching 100% when compared with a multimeter. Overall, the proposed wave power generation system functions reliably and shows potential for further development as a small-scale alternative renewable energy source.
