The surge in young investors in the country indicates that university students are increasingly drawn to the financial markets. Unfortunately, the soundness of students' investment choices often lacks a foundation of clear reasoning, as they remain swayed by social influences, limited insight, and the rapid technological advancements that facilitate access to investment opportunities. This study aims to unravel the determinants of students' investment decisions through the lens of the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB), focusing on financial literacy, risk tolerance, and technology—three factors frequently examined in existing literature. A qualitative approach was adopted, involving a literature review of scholarly articles published between 2020 and 2024. Data gathered from relevant academic sources were analyzed using content analysis techniques to identify research patterns, conceptual relationships, and the consistency of prior findings. The results reveal that the Theory of Planned Behavior effectively explains students' investment decisions through the interplay of attitudes, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control. Financial literacy emerges as the most robust and consistent determinant influencing investment decisions; risk tolerance shapes investment preferences; and technology acts as a catalyst, enhancing accessibility and convenience. These findings suggest that deepening financial literacy—supported by optimal technology use and adequate risk awareness—can empower students to make investment decisions that are rational, well-calculated, and long-term oriented.

This community service activity aimed to improve communication competence and customer experience among service actors in a higher education environment. The training was implemented at Gedung Aula KPA Politeknik Negeri Sriwijaya on 19 February 2026 under the theme of excellent service transformation based on integrity to support the institutional commitment toward an Integrity Zone and Corruption-Free Area.

The activity showed that participants were able to identify the importance of consistent communication behavior, emotional control, and service recovery in creating positive experiences for students, lecturers, partners, and public stakeholders. The implication of this activity is the need for continuous service culture reinforcement through standard operating procedures, role-play-based training, and periodic evaluation of user satisfaction in higher education services.

The Free Health Check-up (CKG) is a government program designed to strengthen promotive and preventive health efforts through the early detection of risk factors, pre-disease conditions, and diseases across the community according to the life-cycle approach. As a relatively new initiative, the implementation of the CKG program in primary healthcare settings still requires further evaluation to assess implementation readiness, digital support systems, and community participation. This literature review aimed to examine the implementation of the Free Health Check-up Program in primary healthcare services. Relevant literature was retrieved from the Google Scholar database using the keyword "implementation of the free health check-up program" and was limited to open-access, full-text articles published between 2025 and 2026. The search identified eight eligible articles, which were extracted and analyzed in this review. The synthesis revealed three major themes in the implementation of the CKG program: (1) primary healthcare service readiness, (2) digitalization and reporting systems, and (3) community participation and communication strategies. Primary healthcare readiness includes the availability of human resources, infrastructure, medical equipment, consumable medical supplies, funding, service workflows, and cross-sectoral coordination. Digitalization through the SATUSEHATplatform and integrated reporting systems has the potential to improve service efficiency; however, challenges remain regarding digital literacy, internet connectivity, and the technical capacity of healthcare personnel. Community participation is influenced by knowledge, attitudes, the roles of community health volunteers, teachers, healthcare workers, and communication strategies tailored to the characteristics of the target population. The successful implementation of the CKG program requires strengthening primary healthcare systems, optimizing digital health platforms, and adopting community-based communication strategies to ensure the program is more effective, inclusive, and sustainable.

The incorporation of artificial intelligence (AI) in language education has provided new opportunities for students to practice English learning especially in speaking ability. This research explored what the students thought about speaking in English and whether or not they had positive opinions toward using AI-based learning to enhance their English speaking skill at the tenth grade of SMAN 19 Tebo. This research adopted a qualitative research design. Questionnaires and follow- up interviews with students who had used Replika AI as a tool for speaking practice were the methods of data collection. The findings indicated that students had different attitudes to speaking in English. Several students reported experiencing anxiety, lack of confidence, and fear of making mistakes when speaking in class. On the other hand, there were also some concerns regarding the tool’s artificial intelligence design of Replika AI. The interaction with an AI-service app for all participants interacting with the AI application was associated with English practice on their own terms and without feeling judged. Moreover, the program generated an interactive context where the students could practice their conversations, and build their ideas more confidently. As has been elaborated above, the results showed that Replika AI was seen as a helpful instrument to practice English speaking and reduced students’ anxiety of speaking. The study recommends that AI- mediated learning has the potential to be an alternative medium for speaking practice in the EFL context.

Collaboration between classroom teachers and Islamic Religious Education (PAI) teachers constitutes an essential strategy for instilling religious moderation values in elementary schools. This study aims to: (1) describe the forms of collaboration developed between classroom teachers and PAI teachers; (2) assess the effectiveness of such collaboration in inculcating religious moderation values; (3) identify changes in students' attitudes as tangible outcomes of collaboration; and (4) analyze supporting and inhibiting factors of collaboration at SDN 3 Wanamekar. A descriptive qualitative approach was applied using field study methods. Data were gathered through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and document review. Data analysis followed the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldana, encompassing data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing. Data credibility was ensured through source triangulation and technique triangulation. Findings indicate that collaboration occurs in two primary forms: reactive collaboration as a spontaneous response to students' intolerant behavior, and planned collaboration involving curriculum coordination, partial co-teaching, and joint evaluation. Collaboration was assessed as sufficiently effective yet suboptimal due to time constraints and excessive administrative burdens. Positive changes in students' tolerance and inclusive attitudes were identified as concrete outcomes. Supporting factors include favorable interpersonal communication, principal support, and moderation value integration in the Merdeka Curriculum. Main inhibiting factors are time limitations, administrative burdens, shallow conceptual understanding of religious moderation, and the absence of a standardized collaboration model. The study recommends establishing structured collaboration schedules and religious moderation training programs for all teachers.

This study aims to explore how the inquiry approach functions as a pedagogical strategy in Christian Religious Education to enhance students’ spiritual discernment. The background of this research arises from the tendency of learning practices that remain predominantly focused on cognitive aspects, thereby not fully cultivating spiritual sensitivity in life decision-making. This study employs a qualitative method with a descriptive-analytical approach through a review of theological and pedagogical literature, conceptual analysis, and reflection on classroom learning practices. The analysis focuses on the relationship between the core elements of inquiry questioning, investigating, dialoguing, and reflecting on knowledge and the process of developing the ability to discern God’s will in the real-life contexts of students. The findings indicate that inquiry effectively creates a reflective learning experience that integrates cognitive, affective, and behavioral dimensions, enabling students not only to understand faith teachings theoretically but also to consider Christian values in concrete situations. This approach encourages active participation, constructive and critical dialogue, and fosters habits of faith reflection, moral sensitivity, and personal responsibility. Thus, inquiry is proven to be a relevant pedagogical method for achieving the theological goal of Christian Religious Education, namely the formation of spiritual discernment that guides students’ attitudes, decisions, and actions in daily life.
