Currently, technological advances are very rapid and sophisticated. It is not surprising that this progress is utilized by many sectors, both private and government. The government must use technology to develop more sophisticated and inventive government systems. One of them is a unique finger impression-based attendance method that is used to discipline employees in carrying out their duties. The purpose of this research is to find out how effective the use of unique finger impressions is to discipline employees at the Malang Regency Transportation Service, how effective the use of unique finger impressions is to increase employee discipline, and the steps taken to improve employee discipline. This study is based on an inductive approach combined with a descriptive approach. Data collection methods include interviews, observation, and documentation. According to Tangkilisan (2005: 141), there are four ways to evaluate effectiveness: target achievement, adaptability, job satisfaction, and responsibility. By using unique finger impressions, employee discipline and organizational performance improve. However, there are several challenges, one of which is that employees continue to come for unique finger impressions rather than performance, which hinders them from completing tasks on time. One of the efforts made by the Malang Regency Transportation Service is to carry out direct supervision from the leadership and apply disciplinary penalties objectively and according to procedures. The author suggests improving or updating unique fingerprint scanning machine technology, especially the sensitivity of the scanner in reading fingerprints, and adding one unit of unique fingerprint scanning machine

This research investigates ship maintenance management practices among senior students in shipping engineering during their internships at a vocational school in Jakarta. The study explores the challenges faced, strategies employed, and lessons learned in managing maintenance tasks onboard ships. Seven participants were interviewed, highlighting technical malfunctions, resource limitations, time constraints, environmental factors, and communication barriers as primary challenges.

This research investigates how organizational culture influences cadets' perceptions of empowerment training and shapes their leadership styles within the transportation management sector in Jakarta. Through qualitative interviews and quantitative surveys with cadets from diverse work environments—collaborative and hierarchical—the study explores the differential impacts of organizational culture on leadership development. Findings reveal that cadets in collaborative environments perceive empowerment training more positively, citing benefits such as teamwork, decision-making autonomy, and mentorship. These cadets tend to exhibit transformational leadership styles characterised by motivation, adaptability, and team empowerment. In contrast, cadets in hierarchical environments often adopt transactional leadership styles focused on task compliance and adherence to hierarchical structures. The study highlights the importance of tailored training programmes that accommodate diverse leadership styles and cultural contexts within transportation management education. Recommendations include integrating soft skills development, establishing mentorship programmes, and implementing continuous feedback mechanisms to enhance training effectiveness. By addressing these dynamics, educational institutions can better prepare cadets for leadership roles in dynamic professional environments, contributing to sectoral advancement and sustainability.

Abstract. This study examines the application of Agile Management principles in online learning platforms, focusing on the challenges and benefits experienced during implementation. Through qualitative research, including interviews and case studies, the research explores how platforms have adopted Agile practices, such as iterative cycles, regular feedback, and flexibility, to enhance responsiveness and adaptability. The findings reveal that the majority of platforms have integrated Agile principles, with a significant focus on overcoming challenges like resistance to change and a lack of training. Participants reported improved collaboration, increased efficiency, and the ability to respond to changes effectively. However, challenges remain, including the need for hybrid models combining Agile with traditional management frameworks. This study contributes valuable insights into the effectiveness of Agile practices in educational technology and offers directions for future research on enhancing Agile implementation in diverse educational settings.
