This academic exploration delves into the nuanced competencies and dynamics shaping the academic journey of Semester 1 cadets at a distinguished Maritime Institute. Focusing on computer literacy, technological proficiency, and sociocultural influences, our qualitative descriptive approach seeks to unveil the intricate dimensions of contemporary maritime education. The assessment of computer literacy reveals varying competencies, urging the need for a tailored curriculum. While basics like office software and digital navigation are strong, disparities in data analysis proficiency call for targeted interventions. The implications highlight the necessity for a stratified curriculum, ensuring a comprehensive skill set in line with modern maritime demands. Cadets overwhelmingly endorse technology's role in enhancing education, signalling a paradigm shift. Positive attitudes towards online resources, digital simulations, and e-learning platforms advocate for an institutional embrace of cutting-edge tools. Recommendations focus on faculty development and increased technology integration, promising an enriched pedagogical landscape. The exploration of sociocultural influences uncovers a delicate balance between tradition and the necessity of English proficiency. Nuanced strategies are essential to integrate diverse cultural backgrounds. Recommendations call for cultural awareness initiatives and language support programs, aligning the institution with the global orientation of maritime education. In qualitative insights, cadets express a collective desire for a more intentional curriculum, particularly in incorporating cultural perspectives. This aligns with the broader scholarly discourse advocating for holistic education. Proposed avenues include workshops, seminars, and collaborations with cultural experts, providing a roadmap for curriculum development congruent with the diverse needs of Semester 1 cadets. This research, rooted in rigorous academic inquiry, serves as a guide for the Maritime Institute, steering its trajectory towards producing technologically adept professionals who are equally culturally astute, ready to navigate the complex global maritime landscape.

Someone who cannot attend conventional education due to various causative factors, such as having to work (time constraints), geographical conditions (geographical constraints), long distances (distance constraints), physical conditions that are not possible (physical constraints), the capacity of conventional schools that are not possible (limited available seats), phobia of school, dropping out of school, or because they are educated through family education at home (home schoolers)  it is possible to be able to keep learning, namely through e-Learning. E-learning or distance learning is expected to improve the quality of learning. This study used an experimental method by providing treatment. The class was divided into two groups, namely the experimental class with the e-learning model and the control class with conventional learning methods. In this study, researchers used a quantitative approach method. The result of this study is to find out the difference between learning with e-learning models with conventional learning.

One of the most basic and most important things in dealing with the circulation of false information is to strengthen digital literacy and ethics in students, the purpose of this study is to provide education and socialization about the urgency and strengthening of digital literacy and ethics as a preventive in preventing Hoax and Hate Speech information circulating on social media, this study uses descriptive qualitative methods with the results: First, strengthening digital literacy is an effective solution in dealing with fake news circulating, because the higher a person's cognitive abilities, the more selective he is in sorting out the information presented, Second, the implementation stage in strengthening and learning literacy and learning ethics is with various learning methods, especially digital-based learning media, school literacy movements, e-learning and utilization of online learning platforms and applications in honing students' cognitive skills and skills in digital literacy, as well as the effectiveness of socialization about the impact and dangers of hoaxes and hate speech. Third, the obstacles in strengthening digital literacy and digital ethics are student skills, weak parental control and supervision, social and economic status, and the skills and abilities of teachers who are required to continue to innovate.

Many studies have described meta-analysis on the overall effect of e-learning influence in learning. However, there has been no meta-analysis of the overall effect of STEM-based e-learning on Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS).  The purpose of this study investigates the effect of STEM-based e-learning on students' critical thinking skills in Indonesia. This type of research is a Systematic Literature Review (SL) and meta-analysis. Data sources came from 10 national and international journals published in 2018-2023. The process of searching for data sources through Google Scholar, ScienceDirect, Wiley, Eric, and Springer. Data analysis used the Hedge formula to calculate effect size with the help of the JSAP application. The findings show that the effect size value (ES = 0.793) is medium. This explains that STEM-based e-learning provides a very high positive impact and is effective in improving students' Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS). Furthermore, HOTS characteristics do not cause heterogeneity in the results of STEM-based e-learning research on students' Higher Order Thinking Skills. The findings suggest that educators should choose STEM-based e-learning as one of the learning models to improve students' Higher Order Thinking skills in Indonesia.

Implementation of Distance Learning (PJJ) is effective in the teaching and learning process during the pandemic. This is supported by Unisbank students in mastering information technology. PJJ technology, also known as e-learning, is a bridge between lecturers and students in the process of meeting in class into a meeting process in cyberspace. E-learning becomes ineffective when the demand for e-learning usage is high, causing server overload or crashes. When the e-learning server is overloaded, all parts that are usually connected and interrelated, such as lecturers, students, administration and others, become disconnected. The importance of monitoring the e-learning server to keep the e-learning load under control, and the server that has a lot of load will be divided so that e-learning will run smoothly and not be overloaded. Monitoring the Elearning server with the Least Connection method is applied to the Unisbank e-learning server and makes e-learning not overloaded. The results of the load balancer workload test with 1000 connections, the resulting response time is 0.2 ms, the workload is 5000 connections, the response time is 0.2 ms and the workload is 10,000 connections, the resulting reply time is 0.2 ms.

Pembelajaran online menawarkan beberapa manfaat, seperti akses ke kursus yang lebih luas, fleksibilitas, dan kesempatan untuk mengembangkan pemikiran kritis yang penting dan keterampilan pemecahan masalah. Hal ini memicu banyaknya penelitian terkait online learning dan mulai dari tahun 2019 online learning ini mulai lebih banyak lagi digunakan karena pada saat itu ialah masa pandemic. Tujuan penelitian ini yaitu untuk menangkap lanskap penelitian tekait online learning in high school. Metode yang digunakan adalah analisis bibliometric. Data diperoleh dari database scopus yang telah disemournakan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa jumlah publikasi terkait online learning in high school meningkat setiap tahunnya dari tahun 2018 hingga tahun 2022, Adapun jumlah dokumen terbanyak yaitu pada negara Indonesia, jumlah dokumen terbanyak yaitu pada lembaga atau universitas “Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia” dan pada jurnal “National Science Foundation”. Fokus penelitian yaitu 1) human dan pandemic; 2)online learning, e-learning dan covid-19; 3)blended learning dan motivation. Keyword yang menjadi tema baru adalah adolescent, dan learning strategies.  

Karakter islami perlu dipupuk sejak dini dalam mengatasi meningkatnya kasus degradasi moral.
