Early Childhood Education (PAUD) is a stage of education that plays a crucial role in maximizing children's cognitive, social-emotional, motor skills, and creativity growth at their peak developmental stage. Children aged three to six learn efficiently through play, hands-on exploration, and interaction with their surroundings. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the use of loose parts media based on natural materials as a means to stimulate creativity in early childhood at PAUD Pelita Mandiri Kertek. This study adopted a descriptive qualitative approach and utilized data collection techniques such as observation, in-depth interviews with teachers, and documentation of children's work. The main focus of this study was on the use of various natural materials, such as corn cobs, twigs, pebbles, and leaves, in play and learning activities. The results showed that loose parts media using natural materials can enhance children's creativity by improving problem-solving skills, strengthening verbal skills in expressing ideas and telling stories about their work, and supporting independent learning because children are actively involved in the educational process. The open-ended nature of the materials allows children to explore and express their ideas freely, thus creating a learning atmosphere full of creativity, innovation, and fun. The implications of this research indicate that the use of loose parts media based on natural materials can be an alternative learning method that is not only effective, but also economical and easy to implement to support the development of children's creativity, independence, and thinking skills, in line with the principles of child-centered learning.

This study examines the role of congregational prayer habituation in internalizing students’ religious character at SMP Jam'iyyatut Tholibin. Congregational prayer serves not only as a form of worship but also as a strategy for instilling religious values through consistent practice. This field research employed a phenomenological approach with a qualitative descriptive method. Primary data were collected through interviews with the principal, Islamic Religious Education teachers, the vice principal for student affairs, and students, while secondary data were obtained from school documents and relevant literature. Data collection techniques included observation, interviews, and documentation, and the data were analyzed through reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing, with validity ensured through source and technique triangulation. The findings show that the regular habituation of Duha and Dhuhr prayers, supported by Qur’an recitation, Asmaul Husna, and Morning Inspirational Stories (CIP), effectively strengthens students’ discipline, responsibility, worship obedience, humility, and solidarity. Although challenges such as limited student motivation and external environmental influences remain, continuous guidance, motivation, and teachers’ exemplary behavior effectively support the internalization process. Overall, integrating congregational prayer with complementary religious activities effectively promotes students’ religious character development.

The Celeng Behel tradition is a form of local wisdom practiced by the people of Soropadan Village, Pringsurat District, Temanggung Regency, and is carried out through the Sadranan Kali ritual. This study aims to explain the form and function of the Celeng Behel tradition in the community’s daily life. The research uses a qualitative descriptive method with folklore and semiotic approaches. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation, then analyzed to understand the cultural meanings behind the tradition. The results show that the Celeng Behel tradition has two main forms. First, it exists as oral folklore in the form of stories passed down from generation to generation. Second, it appears as a ritual practice, namely Sadranan Kali, which is held every year on the 10th of Sapar at Bendung Pondoh.

These activities symbolize the community’s gratitude for the water that supports their farming and daily needs. The tradition also has important functions. It serves as a way for the community to express their hopes and concerns about nature, especially related to water and agriculture. It also strengthens social rules and cultural values that have been passed down over time. From a semiotic point of view, the symbols used in the ritual have both direct meanings and deeper cultural meanings that form shared beliefs in the community. In conclusion, the Celeng Behel tradition is not only a cultural activity, but also an important way to maintain harmony between humans, nature, and spiritual values in the life of the Soropadan community.

Expressive short story reading instruction requires both verbal and nonverbal skills so that students can convey the story’s content in a communicative and meaningful way. However, the instructional models currently in use tend to focus on only one aspect, resulting in suboptimal development of oral expression. This study aims to describe the innovative design of the Story Physical Expression (SPE) learning model for expressive short story reading instruction. The study employs a library research method with a qualitative descriptive approach. Data were obtained from various books, scientific articles, and relevant research findings, then analyzed using content analysis techniques. The results indicate that the SPE model was developed through the reconstruction of the storytelling and Total Physical Response (TPR) models by integrating verbal and nonverbal skills into a single learning sequence. This model consists of seven components: stimulation and motivation, story reading examples, exploration of physical expression, guided expression practice, story performance, feedback and reflection, and evaluation and reinforcement. The novelty of the SPE model lies in the integration of story immersion, intonation, pronunciation, facial expressions, gestures, and body movements in the expressive learning of short stories. The SPE model serves as an alternative instructional model that can be used to develop students’ oral expression skills in Indonesian language learning.

TPQ, as a non-formal educational institution, has an important role in instilling Islamic values through learning the Qur’an, aqidah, and morals. However, in its implementation, several obstacles are still found, such as the low understanding of students regarding religious values, varying abilities in reading the Qur’an, and the lack of support from family and community environments.This study employed a descriptive qualitative approach. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation at TPQ Fattuhul Qulub, Doyo Baru District. The focus of the research includes the planning, implementation, and evaluation processes of instilling Islamic Religious Education values in the aspects of the Qur’an and Aqidah.The results of the study indicate that the instillation of Islamic Religious Education values has been carried out through structured stages of planning, implementation, and evaluation. The learning process was conducted using the methods of Iqra’, tahsin, tahfidz, talaqqi, lectures, role modeling, habituation, and exemplary stories. In the Qur’anic aspect, students were guided to read the Qur’an according to tajwid rules and memorize short surahs, while in the Aqidah aspect, students were taught the pillars of faith, the attributes of Allah and His Messenger, and the formation of Islamic morals. The evaluation results showed improvements in Qur’anic reading skills, memorization, understanding of aqidah, and changes in students’ religious behavior, such as becoming more disciplined, polite, and diligent in worship. This success was supported by the exemplary behavior of the teachers and the involvement of parents in the learning process.

This study aims to describe the intrinsic structure and analyze the psychological aspects of the main characters in the three short stories based on Sigmund Freud's psychoanalytic theory. The research uses a qualitative approach with descriptive methods. Data sources are texts from three satua cutet in the Nimbang Rasa anthology: I Kucil by I Komang Tri Nanda Defhayana, Idup Lara by Ni Wayan Esa Juliantini, and Pajalan Keneh by Ni Putu Ayu Ari Astiti. Results show that the intrinsic structure of all three stories employs a linear plot, with themes of diligence, perseverance, and courage. Psychological analysis based on Freud's id, ego, and superego theory reveals that I Kucil is dominated by id impulses in the form of aggressive emotion due to injustice; Ani demonstrates a strong ego in withstanding social pressure and a firm superego in upholding moral values; while Gékyu shows a balance between ego and superego when facing abuse from a teacher. This research is expected to serve as a reference in Balinese literary studies, particularly in the field of literary psychology.

Abstract. The digital transformation in the healthcare sector, reinforced by Ministry of Health Regulation No. 24 of 2022, mandates every healthcare service facility to implement Electronic Medical Records (EMR). This requirement compels educational institutions to provide relevant simulation media to enhance student competence. However, at the Health Information Management Laboratory of Esa Unggul University Harapan Indah, the use of existing systems such as Khanza EMR still exhibits limitations in terms of flexibility and alignment with practical workflows. This research aims to develop an adaptive web-based EMR system using the CodeIgniter 4 Framework and the Extreme Programming (XP) methodology. The research methodology employed is Research and Development (R&D) with an XP approach consisting of four stages: Planning, Design, Coding, and Testing. System development was executed through five main iterations, encompassing the formulation of user stories, design utilizing UML and UI, and program code implementation. This system realizes designs from previous research into functional modules, including registration, initial assessment, examination (SOAPE), medical support (laboratory and radiology), codification (ICD-10 and ICD-9-CM), pharmacy, cashier, and reporting. The results indicate that the EMR system was successfully implemented and passed functional verification through Black-Box Testing, achieving a "Successful" status across all scenarios. The conclusion of this study is that the developed EMR system fulfills the functional and security requirements necessary to serve as an effective and realistic practical learning medium for Health Information Management students.

Many students find it difficult to express ideas into a complete story. Their imagination often stops halfway due to limited vocabulary, lack of understanding of story structure, and minimal practice in creative writing. The purpose of this research is to describe the profile of contextual learning on the ability to write short stories at MTs Istiqlal Jakarta, to examine the impact before the use of the contextual learning model on the ability to write short stories at MTs Istiqlal Jakarta, to examine the impact after the use of the contextual learning model on the ability to write short stories at MTs Istiqlal Jakarta, and to describe the effect of learning modules on the ability to write short stories of seventh-grade students at MTs Istiqlal Jakarta. This research uses a quantitative approach with an experimental method. The type of research used is One Group Pretest-Posttest Design, namely a design that only involves one experimental group. The sample in this study consists of 25 (twenty-five students) of grade VII MTs Istiqlal Jakarta. The results of the research show that learning at MTs Istiqlal Jakarta is still dominated by the lecture method so students tend to be passive and their short story writing ability is relatively low, especially in finding ideas, developing plot, and building characters. The implementation of the contextual learning model has been proven to significantly improve students' short story writing ability through active involvement, linking material with real experiences, idea exploration, collaboration in learning communities, reflection, and more in-depth authentic assessment.

This study aims to describe the forms and types of presuppositions found in two short stories published on the website ruangsastra.com, namely “Minum Teh Sebelum Mati” (“Drinking Tea Before Dying”) and “Pendongeng Keliling dan Tangisan Peluru” (“The Traveling Storyteller and the Cry of Bullets”). This research employs a descriptive qualitative method with an objective and pragmatic approach. Data were collected using the observation and note-taking method, then analyzed using distributional and referential analysis techniques. The results of the study show that a total of 32 presuppositions were identified and classified into six types, theory: existential, factive, structural, non-factive, lexical, and counterfactual presuppositions. Among these types, existential presuppositions were the most frequently found in the texts, while counterfactual presuppositions were the least common. These findings indicate that the use of presuppositions in short stories serves not only as a linguistic feature but also as an essential tool in constructing meaning and understanding narrative context. This research is expected to make a significant contribution to the development of pragmatic studies, particularly in the analysis of modern literary works, as well as to open new perspectives in understanding the interaction between language, meaning, and context in literary texts. The implications of this study may also serve as a foundation for further research on other pragmatic aspects in broader and more diverse literary works.

Indonesia is a country with a high level of vulnerability to various natural disasters, making it essential to improve disaster mitigation literacy from an early age, particularly among primary school pupils. However, disaster mitigation education in schools is often still theoretical and lacks engaging and contextually relevant learning materials. Therefore, this initiative aims to enhance pupils’ understanding of disaster mitigation and environmental awareness through the use of an interactive magazine module accompanied by educational stickers. This community service activity was carried out at Giriwungu Primary School, Girirejo Village, Imogiri Sub-district, Bantul Regency, targeting Year 3 primary school pupils. The implementation method employed an educational-participatory approach through several stages of activity, namely the screening of educational videos, the distribution of interactive magazine modules, independent reading activities, the presentation of picture stories, and interactive quizzes to assess pupils’ understanding. The results of the activity showed that the pupils demonstrated high levels of enthusiasm and participation throughout the session, and the majority were able to grasp the basic concepts of waste management and the importance of protecting the environment as part of disaster mitigation efforts. Consequently, the use of interactive magazine modules can serve as an effective literacy tool for enhancing pupils’ understanding and fostering awareness of environmental care and disaster mitigation from an early age.
