This study examines the implementation of Islamic business ethics in e-commerce transactions, with a specific focus on the Shopee platform. The research is motivated by the increasing growth of digital commerce accompanied by various ethical issues such as product misrepresentation, lack of transparency, and weak accountability of sellers. The objective of this study is to analyze how ethical principles, including honesty, fairness, and responsibility, are applied in online transactions. This research employs a qualitative approach using a systematic literature review method by analyzing 20 relevant scholarly articles published between 2020 and 2026. The findings reveal that although the platform provides adequate transactional systems, ethical violations are still prevalent, primarily due to information asymmetry between sellers and consumers. Trust emerges as the most influential factor in purchasing decisions, while perceived risk and security play supporting roles in shaping consumer behavior. Additionally, economic incentives such as promotions often override ethical considerations in influencing consumer decisions. The study implies that strengthening ethical enforcement, enhancing platform supervision, and improving consumer digital literacy are essential to ensure a sustainable and trustworthy e-commerce ecosystem.

This study aims to analyze digital transformation in public administration as a strategy to improve the efficiency and transparency of government services in Poso Regency.

Developments in information technology have had a significant impact on business communication and negotiation processes in various industrial sectors. Technological advances such as email, video conferencing, instant messaging applications, cloud-based information systems, and other digital media have created new, faster, more efficient, and more documented communication models. This study uses a descriptive approach based on a literature review to analyze how information technology is transforming interaction patterns, strategies, and negotiation processes in the modern business environment. The results indicate that information technology plays a strategic role in increasing the effectiveness of business communication and accelerating the negotiation process. Advantages such as cost savings, time flexibility, global access, and automated documentation are the main reasons for the increasing use of digital media in the business world. However, digital negotiation also presents challenges such as the loss of non-verbal context, the risk of miscommunication, data security issues, and limitations in interpersonal relationships. The conclusion of this study confirms that successful negotiations in the digital era are greatly influenced by interpersonal communication skills, digital literacy, appropriate media selection, and the implementation of negotiation strategies that adapt to technological changes.

The Muhammadiyah Orphanage in Pamekasan faces major challenges in developing life skills and digital education for its children due to limited facilities, teaching staff, and conventional learning methods. To address these issues, an edutainment-based approach and digital pedagogy intervention were implemented to enhance learning quality, motivation, and preparedness for future social and technological challenges. The activities included workshops and training on Digital Pedagogy and Edutainment learning materials, as well as simulations and role-plays using a Game-Based Learning approach, followed by evaluations and participant plan presentations. The program significantly improved the wards’ digital literacy, particularly in personal security (online safety), digital ethics (cyber ethics), gadget usage, and information management, with the average score rising from 2.84 to 4.10 on a 5-point scale, surpassing the target of 75% of participants in the “good” category. Beyond cognitive aspects, the program also boosted motivation, engagement, communication, problem-solving, and independence. Caregiver training was also provided to ensure program sustainability. It is recommended that the orphanage integrate the Game-Based Learning Digital Safety module into its non-formal curriculum, enhance caregiver capacity through advanced training, and improve IT infrastructure.
