Changes in labor regulations through the Job Creation Law have brought significant changes to the employment system in Indonesia, particularly in terms of labor flexibility. This study aims to analyze labor flexibility after the implementation of the Job Creation Law from the perspective of Human Resource Management (HRM). The research method used is a qualitative approach through a literature study with thematic analysis of 16 scientific journals, books, and regulations related to labor flexibility and strategic Human Resource Management (HRM) practices. The results show that labor flexibility has positive impacts on companies in improving operational efficiency, productivity, and adaptability to market changes. However, on the other hand, such flexibility also creates several challenges, including job uncertainty, decreased job security, and reduced protection for contract and outsourced workers. From the HRM perspective, companies are required to create a balance between business interests and labor protection in order to maintain harmonious industrial relations. This study is expected to provide a more comprehensive understanding of labor flexibility as part of human resource management strategies in the post-labor deregulation era in Indonesia.

The research employs a qualitative approach through library research and content analysis of relevant academic literature. The findings indicate that the challenge of Inkār al-Sunnah affects three dimensions of Islamic education: curricular, pedagogical, and socio-digital. In response, a multidimensional strategy is required, including strengthening Islamic epistemology, improving hadith literacy, contextualising learning through the living hadith approach, reformulating hadith curricula, optimizing educational digital media, enhancing teacher competencies, strengthening Islamic educational institutions, fostering family-school collaboration, and promoting religious moderation education. The study concludes that adaptive and integrative Islamic education, grounded in the Qur'an and Sunnah, plays a crucial role in developing a generation of Muslims who are critical, knowledgeable, digitally literate, and moderate in responding to contemporary religious challenges in the digital age.

Sukabanjar Village is one of the villages striving to improve basic infrastructure quality, particularly in drainage construction and road repair. However, limited understanding among village officials and communities regarding standardized construction cost estimation methods, specifically the Unit Price Work Analysis (AHSP), has become an obstacle in preparing accurate and efficient Budget Plans (RAB). This community service program (PKM) aims to improve the understanding of village officials, village hall staff, and Sukabanjar Village community regarding AHSP-based construction cost estimation planning as the standard reference for construction work cost calculation in Indonesia. The program involved socialization and training for 20 participants, consisting of village officials (RW/RT), village hall staff, and general public, introducing the basic concepts of AHSP, RAB component elements, and simple simulations of drainage and road work cost calculations. Evaluation was conducted through pre- and post-tests. The results of the activity showed a very significant improvement in participants' understanding. The average pre-test score was 42, which then increased to 75 in the post-test, reflecting an increase of 33 points (78.6%). In conclusion, the AHSP-based cost estimation planning socialization was effective in improving the village community's understanding of construction infrastructure budget management, although continued mentoring is still needed for optimal and sustainable implementation.

Embroidery is one of Indonesia’s traditional craft arts that has developed over time and continues to attract people from various social backgrounds. Embroidery techniques are commonly applied to fashion products as well as household items. The diversity of embroidery motifs and techniques provides aesthetic value and uniqueness to each product, making embroidery an important element in the development of the fashion industry. This opportunity can encourage students of the Fashion Design Program at AKS Ibu Kartini to develop their entrepreneurial potential through creativity in manual embroidery. This study employed a quantitative approach using multiple linear regression analysis as the data processing technique to determine the influence of internal factors on the entrepreneurial motivation of Fashion Design students at AKS Ibu Kartini. The research sample consisted of 65 respondents. The findings revealed that, simultaneously, the four independent variables had a significant effect on entrepreneurial motivation, with a coefficient of determination (R²) value of 0.910. This indicates that 91% of the variation in entrepreneurial motivation can be explained by technical knowledge (X1), technical skills (X2), creativity and innovation (X3), and entrepreneurial mindset (X4), while the remaining 9% is influenced by other factors outside this study. Partially, variables X1, X2, and X4 showed a positive and significant effect on entrepreneurial motivation, whereas X3 demonstrated a negative and significant effect. This finding indicates that creativity without market orientation may reduce students’ motivation to engage in entrepreneurship. The implications of this study emphasize the importance of improving students’ knowledge, skills, and entrepreneurial mindset. Furthermore, proper guidance is needed to ensure that students’ creativity and innovation are aligned with market demands in order to optimally enhance entrepreneurial motivation.

Thus, this Community Service activity can run and have a maximum impact.

The Merdeka Curriculum introduces a paradigm shift in Indonesia's educational assessment system, moving from an outcome-oriented approach toward one that positions evaluation as an integral part of the learning process itself. This article examines how learning evaluation is implemented as an instrument to improve the quality of student learning within the Merdeka Curriculum framework. This study employs a library research method, analyzing relevant policy documents, regulations, and academic literature. The findings indicate that the Merdeka Curriculum shifts the focus of evaluation from mere measurement (assessment of learning) toward assessment as learning and assessment for learning, realized through three main forms of assessment: diagnostic, formative, and summative. Proper implementation of these three forms enables teachers to map students' individual learning needs, provide continuous feedback, and design differentiated instruction that is more relevant to learners' characteristics. However, field implementation still faces several challenges, including uneven teacher understanding, time constraints, and limited technical training in designing authentic assessment instruments. This article recommends strengthening teacher competence, providing practical technical guidance, and offering continuous mentoring as strategic steps to ensure that learning evaluation truly functions as an instrument for improving learning quality, rather than merely an administrative formality.

This community service program aimed to promote a community-based environmental care movement through the planting of productive trees in Meunasah Panggoi Village, Muara Dua District, Lhokseumawe City. The program was implemented over four weeks using a Community-Based Participatory (CBP) approach, actively involving local residents in the planning, observation, seedling procurement, tree planting, and initial maintenance stages. The observation results indicated that vegetation cover in the village was still limited, highlighting the need for sustainable greening efforts. A total of 25 productive trees, including mango, longan, coconut, guava, and avocado, were successfully planted at several strategic locations. The activity involved village officials, youth groups, and community members, thereby strengthening public participation in environmental conservation. The program not only increased vegetation cover but also reinforced the spirit of mutual cooperation, enhanced collective awareness of environmental preservation, and encouraged the productive use of available land. The productive trees are expected to provide long-term ecological, social, and economic benefits by improving environmental quality and generating harvests that can be utilized by the community. Therefore, community-based greening represents an effective strategy for supporting sustainable environmental development at the village level.
