Equity is reflected in the widespread distribution of bus stops, although disparities remain in the availability of facilities and route information across several stops. The service shows high responsiveness through quick handling of passenger complaints via applications and social media. Additionally, service appropriateness is evident in its punctual operations supported by GPS-based monitoring and real-time information through the TRANSJATIM-AJAIB application. Overall, the evaluation shows that Trans Jatim Corridor 2 provides effective, efficient, and responsive public transport services, yet requires improvements in capacity and equitable distribution of facilities to achieve optimal service quality.

Paid online matchmaking services that have developed through Facebook use consumer profiles to promote and find partners. This practice raises legal issues, particularly those related to consumer protection and the risk of digital harassment—also known as cyberbullying—in the form of derogatory, discriminatory, or offensive comments about consumers' personal standards that are displayed publicly. The purpose of this study is to assess the legal liability of business actors for cyberbullying when operating online matchmaking services and to assess the extent to which legal protection tools are available to consumers. This study uses a normative legal approach, utilizing case studies of legislation and conceptual studies on the practice of paid matchmaking services on social media. The results of the study show that businesses are required to guarantee the safety, comfort, and protection of consumer rights in all digital-based commercial activities, including managing content and interacting with people on social media. Non-material losses, such as psychological pressure and abuse of consumer dignity, are caused by a lack of supervision and a lack of moderate comment mechanisms. Therefore, regulations on personal data protection must be strengthened, content moderation responsibilities must be determined, and legal accountability mechanisms for business actors in the digital ta'aruf business must be made clear.

Website Accessible Jambi City Population and Civil Registry Service https://disdukcapil.jambikota.go.id. The problem with the Jambi City Population and Civil Registry Service website is that not all information is available, especially on the Profile menu there is a Media Information sub-menu, Data menu and Facilities and Infrastructure menu. On the Information Media sub-menu, there is a Demographic Data sub-menu, where the contents of the sub-menu are still empty, preventing users from obtaining information. On the Public Facilities and Infrastructure menu from the sub menu, the data cannot be accessed so that it makes users unable to get information. And in the appearance of the Jambi City Population and Civil Registry Service, when accessed via Google Chrome, the appearance is disorganized, so users have to open the website using a laptop/PC to get a website display that is orderly and easy for users to understand. Quality measurement is carried out based on user satisfaction point of view in order to improve the quality of service to the community and make optimal use of the website. In analyzing user satisfactionwebsite DUKCAPIL Jambi using the webqual 4.0 method, there are 4 variables, namely usability (usability), information quality (information quality), interaction quality (interaction quality), and user satisfaction (user satisfaction) and using the software (software) SPSS. Of the 3 hypotheses proposed, all hypotheses were accepted in this study.

The evolution of modern civil procedural law demands dispute resolution mechanisms that are responsive, efficient, and substantively just. In this context, Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) particularly mediation and arbitration has transformed from a supplementary option into a central instrument within Indonesia’s dispute resolution architecture. This study aims to analyze the development of ADR from the perspective of modern civil procedural law, focusing on the normative status and practical efficiency of mediation and arbitration as pre-litigation mechanisms. The research employs a normative-juridical approach, analyzing primary legal sources (legislation, Supreme Court Regulations [PERMA], court decisions) and secondary sources (scholarly journals, books, policy documents). The findings indicate that mediation has been mandatorily integrated into civil procedure through PERMA No. 1 of 2016, functioning as a court-facilitated pre-litigation stage, while arbitration operates as a consensual out-of-court mechanism under Law No. 30 of 1999. Both mechanisms demonstrate clear efficiency in terms of time (resolution within weeks to months), cost (minimal to predictable), and the ability to preserve parties’ relationships through collaborative processes and procedural confidentiality. Nevertheless, implementation challenges remain, particularly concerning the availability of qualified mediators and public perception of ADR. The study concludes that ADR is no longer a marginal alternative but an integral pillar of modern civil justice, aligning with principles of procedural efficiency and substantive justice.

The rapid growth of social media in Indonesia has transformed marketing communication strategies, particularly in producing creative promotional content. Instagram Reels has emerged as an effective platform for building brand awareness through short and engaging videos. This study was conducted during an internship at PT Waskita Fim Perkasa Realti and focuses on the production process of Instagram Reels content for Vasaka Solterra. The first objective is to examine the workflow of promotional video production across three stages, pre-production, production, and post-production. The second objective is to identify challenges faced by the Marketing Communication Division. Using qualitative methods, including observation, interviews, participation, and literature review. This study found that pre-production involves idea development, content research, and storyboard creation. The production stage includes smartphone-based video shooting and voice-over recording to ensure message clarity. Post-production centers on editing using CapCut and applying a consistent visual identity before publication. The study also identifies several obstacles, such as limited human resources, minimal equipment availability, and coordination delays with external partners. These findings highlight the need for increased production personnel, improved interdepartmental collaboration, and enhanced equipment support to optimize the overall content production process.

This study examines the bioethical and Sharia dilemmas arising from the production of slaughter-free meat through animal cell culture as a modern food innovation. Concerns regarding the halal status of the cell source, the use of culture media such as Foetal Bovine Serum, and ethical issues related to animal welfare necessitate an in-depth analysis of the halal status and moral implications of this technology. The research method employs a literature study with a descriptive qualitative approach, reviewing journals, books, and contemporary fatwas related to cultured meat, bioethics, and Islamic law. The results indicate that the Sharia aspect heavily depends on the cell source, the medium used, and the culture process, while the bioethical perspective highlights animal welfare, scientific transparency, and the moral responsibility of researchers. Furthermore, the acceptance among Muslim communities is significantly influenced by trust in halal certification bodies and the availability of transparent information. This study affirms the need for biotechnology-based halal standardization and the development of fully halal media and supporting materials to ensure the widespread acceptance of cultured meat in the future.

The limited number of studies examining organizational communication patterns within technical government institutions a research gap, particularly in understanding how communication mechanisms are implemented by public relations units in technical based governmental organizations.

The study employs a qualitative descriptive approach wih data collected through interviews, observations, and literature review. The findings reveal that the organizational communication pattern operates in multiple directions using both formal communication channels, such as official letters and scheduled meetings through the Nadine system, and informal channels, including face-to-face interactions and digital messaging through WhatsApp. Supporting factors in the communication process include leadership support, a well-defined organizational structure, a collaborative work culture, and the availability of adequate communication facilities and media. However, several constraints remain, including technical and non-tehcnical challenges such as varying work priorities, inconsistents responses times, and unstable network connectivity during field activities.

This article discusses the role of Special Assistant Teachers (GPK) in creating an effective inclusive classroom, where all students, including children with special needs, can participate optimally in the learning process. GPK plays the role of facilitators, mediators, and regular teacher partners in accommodating diverse learning needs. This role is realized through individual needs assessments, adjustment of learning strategies, modification of teaching materials, and provision of academic and social-emotional support to students. The results of the study show that the success of inclusive education is greatly influenced by GPK's professional competence, especially in understanding the characteristics of children with special needs and implementing differentiatory learning. In addition, effective collaboration between GPK and regular teachers is a key factor in creating an inclusive and non-discriminatory learning environment. Institutional support, such as inclusive school policies, the availability of infrastructure, and the support of school leaders, also play an important role. This article emphasizes the need for sustainable professional development, clear division of duties, and supportive education policies to strengthen GPK's role in promoting inclusive education equity in Indonesia.

The educational activity on the implementation of Clean and Healthy Living Behavior (PHBS) with a focus on the practice of washing hands and brushing teeth at SDN 07 Jati Mulya, Kerinci Kanan District, Siak Regency, aims to improve students' knowledge and skills in maintaining personal hygiene from an early age. This program was carried out for two days by applying educational, participatory, and demonstrative methods involving all students from grade I to grade VI. The learning media used is in the form of educational videos and the song "6 Steps to Wash Hands WHO 2024" to attract students' attention and facilitate the understanding of the material in a fun way. The results of the activity showed a significant improvement in students' understanding and skills related to the correct hand washing and brushing steps. In addition, students look more enthusiastic, actively ask questions, and begin to get used to doing cleaning practices independently in daily activities at school. The role of teachers as companions and support for school facilities, such as the availability of clean water and cleaning tools, has been proven to have a great influence on the success of activities. Therefore, integrated, planned, and sustainable PHBS education in the school environment is considered effective in forming healthy living behaviors and preventing diseases from elementary school age.

Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) play a vital role in the Indonesian economy, yet they are vulnerable to various conflicts that can hinder their continuity. Dispute resolution through legal channels (litigation) is often considered inefficient for MSMEs due to the lengthy process, high costs, and inflexibility. Therefore, alternative dispute resolution methods such as mediation and arbitration are considered preferable to litigation. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of mediation and arbitration in resolving business conflicts among MSMEs in Indonesia, identify inhibiting factors in resolving business conflicts, and provide recommendations for strengthening the accessibility of these mechanisms for MSMEs. The research method used is empirical juridical, combining normative analysis of regulations governing mediation and arbitration with data collection using document studies related to MSMEs. The results indicate that mediation is generally more effective for MSMEs because it is less expensive, simpler, and can maintain business relationships between the parties. However, the success of mediation is also determined by the quality of the mediator and the willingness of both parties. On the other hand, arbitration provides legal certainty and a relatively quicker resolution process compared to litigation. However, the barriers are the relatively high cost and low legal understanding among MSMEs. A comparison of the two shows that the effectiveness of ADR depends heavily on the availability of information, support from service providers, and the MSME's ability to adapt to legal procedures.

This study aims to describe how Citizenship Education (PPKn) is implemented to shape the character of second-grade students at Madrasah Ibtidaiyah Sukamanah in Tanggeung, Cianjur. Employing a descriptive qualitative method, the research gathered data through classroom observations, interviews with teachers, and analysis of documentation related to learning activities. The findings show that PPKn learning delivered through teacher modeling, guided discussions, and consistent habitual practices effectively cultivates key character values, including discipline, honesty, responsibility, and tolerance. The integration of PPKn material with Islamic moral teachings further enhances students’ comprehension of their rights and obligations, while also reinforcing positive behavior in their daily routines. Despite these strengths, the study identifies several challenges, such as the limited availability of learning media and the diverse backgrounds of students, which influence the learning dynamics in the classroom. Overall, the results emphasize that PPKn serves as an essential foundation for character education, and its implementation needs to be continuously strengthened through innovative instructional approaches, supportive school policies, and active collaboration with students’ families to ensure optimal character development.

This study aims to analyze the influence of consumer trust and product price, mediated by e-WOM (electronic word-of-mouth), on purchase decisions on the Shopee platform. A quantitative approach was used, with a sample of 75 undergraduate students living in boarding houses in the Special Region of Yogyakarta who shop on Shopee. Data were collected via questionnaires and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) based on Partial Least Square (PLS) with SmartPLS version 4. The results show that consumer trust and product price have a significant positive influence on purchase decisions, both directly and indirectly through e-WOM. This confirms the vital role of user reviews and recommendations in the decision-making process. The study provides strategic implications for e-commerce platforms and guidance for consumers. In addition, this study also provides guidance for consumers in considering factors that influence purchasing decisions on online platforms and educate them to be more careful in assessing available information before making a purchase. Overall, the results of this study underscore the important role of consumer trust, product price, and e-WOM in shaping purchasing decisions on e-commerce platforms.

The increasingly massive development of social media has been exploited by terrorist groups as a strategic tool to spread propaganda, violent ideology, and radicalism to the wider community, especially the younger generation. This situation demands an effective counter-radicalization strategy that adapts to the dynamics of the digital space. This study aims to analyze the strengthening of legal instruments and the role and institutional structure of the National Counterterrorism Agency (BNPT) in implementing social media-based counter-radicalization policies. The research method used is a normative juridical approach with a legislative approach and a conceptual approach, through a review of laws and regulations, legal doctrine, and policies related to counter-terrorism in Indonesia. The results show that the normative legal basis for BNPT's authority to carry out counter-radicalization is already available, particularly in the Law on the Eradication of Criminal Acts of Terrorism. However, its implementation still faces various obstacles, including weak derivative regulations specifically governing the supervision and counter-measures of digital radicalism, limited inter-agency coordination, and suboptimal evaluation of data- and technology-based policies. Therefore, this study recommends strengthening derivative regulations, increasing the digital capacity of BNPT, and developing a more integrated coordination and evaluation system.

The early growth of Coffea arabica seedlings is highly influenced by the quality of the growing medium and nutrient uptake efficiency during the nursery phase. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of local-material-based growing media formulations and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) inoculation on the vegetative growth of C. arabica Lini S 795 seedlings. The experiment was conducted using a completely randomized design (CRD) with eight treatments involving combinations of soil, rice husk, fermented manure, and Glomus sp. mycorrhiza, each replicated three times. Observed parameters included plant height, leaf number, root length, root dry weight, and shoot dry weight. Results showed that the combination of soil, rice husk, manure, and mycorrhiza significantly enhanced all growth parameters compared to the control. The synergistic interaction between local organic components and biological agents improved the physical, chemical, and biological properties of the growing media, thereby optimizing root and shoot development. These findings suggest that integrating locally available organic materials with mycorrhizal inoculants offers an effective, eco-friendly, and sustainable approach to coffee seedling cultivation, with high potential for broader field-scale application.

This study conducts a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) to examine how key dimensions of digital service quality—namely system quality, ease of use, perceived value, and payment availability—shape customer loyalty among Generation Z culinary consumers, with customer satisfaction functioning as the mediating variable. Bibliometric mapping reveals that previous studies have predominantly focused on Millennials and Gen Y and have emphasized traditional service quality rather than digital service performance, indicating a significant research gap in Gen Z–specific digital consumption behavior. The SLR findings show that fast, secure, stable, and user-friendly digital systems strongly influence perceived value and user satisfaction, while the availability of digital payments such as QRIS and e-wallets enhances seamless transactional experiences. Customer satisfaction emerges as the primary psychological mechanism mediating the relationship between digital service quality and Gen Z loyalty, reflected in repeat purchases, positive word of mouth, and emotional attachment to digital culinary platforms. This study contributes theoretically by addressing existing research gaps and proposing a conceptual model of Gen Z loyalty grounded in digital experience.

The rapid development of information technology has encouraged various educational institutions, including non-formal education providers, to utilize digital media as an effective means of information dissemination and communication with the wider community. Taman Pendidikan Al-Qur’an (TPQ) Jabal Annur, located in Tambun Selatan, Bekasi Regency, still experiences limitations in delivering information to the public due to the absence of a website-based information medium. Currently, information related to the institutional profile, learning activities, schedules, and official announcements is conveyed through conventional methods, which are less effective and have limited reach. Therefore, this community service activity aims to assist TPQ Jabal Annur in developing a simple, functional, and accessible information website using HTML and CSS, as well as deploying it through the GitHub Pages platform. The implementation method consists of several stages, including initial observation to identify partner needs, website interface and content design, website development, and implementation and deployment. The result of this activity is an official TPQ website that can be accessed online and functions as a centralized information medium for students, parents, and the surrounding community. The availability of this website is expected to enhance the effectiveness, accuracy, and accessibility of information delivery, as well as to support the digital transformation process in non-formal religious education institutions in adapting to the demands of the digital era.

The increasing snack consumption trend in Indonesia, along with the availability of processed snacks that are high in sugar, fat, and sodium but low in fiber, poses a significant challenge to digestive health. More than 40% of the global population experiences digestive disorders, often related to unhealthy eating patterns and low fiber intake. In response to this issue, an innovative healthy snack called TaroStik, made from taro vines (Colocasia esculenta) rich in fiber and nutrients, has been developed. This product comes in two forms, sticks and chips, with three flavor variants (salty, sweet, and spicy), offering a healthy snacking experience without sacrificing taste. Training on utilizing taro vines to create TaroStik was conducted in Banjarbaru, involving prospective entrepreneurs with a combined approach of theory, hands-on practice, and group discussions. Participants were trained from material selection, processing (peeling, soaking, steaming, frying), packaging, to social media marketing simulation. As a result, most participants were able to independently produce TaroStik, with some expressing intentions to continue production at a home scale. TaroStik not only provides a digestive health solution through natural snacks free of preservatives but also brings positive impacts in three areas: economy (creating business opportunities based on local ingredients), environment (reducing agricultural waste), and nutrition (increasing healthy food consumption). This innovation embodies the principles of green economy and sustainable entrepreneurship, opening new business opportunities and improving community welfare.

The objective of this research is to improve student learning interest in nonfiction texts through the implementation of E-Litera, a digital-based interactive literacy media. This study utilized a classroom action research design conducted in two cycles involving 24 fourth-grade students at SDN Sidomulyo. Data were obtained from questionnaires, observations, interviews, and documentation. The results showed a significant improvement in student learning outcomes throughout the research process. In the pre-action phase, only 8 students (33.3%) achieved the minimum mastery criteria, while 16 students (66.7%) did not meet the criteria. This figure increased to 12 students (50%) in the first cycle, and significantly rose to 20 students (83.3%) in the second cycle. The enhanced performance in the final cycle reflects the effectiveness of E-Litera in providing visually engaging and structured content, which helped deepen students' understanding of nonfiction materials. These findings support the use of E-Litera as a meaningful and engaging digital media to foster reading interest and improve comprehension skills in elementary education. By using E-Litera, the teaching and learning process can be more effective and enjoyable, ultimately improving the quality of student learning.

The development of financial technology (fintech) in the digital era has made it easier for young people, particularly students, to access investment services through applications such as Bibit, Ajaib, Pluang, and Bareksa. The increasing number of young investors has not been fully aligned with the quality of investment decision-making, which is still influenced by low financial literacy, social media promotion, and the availability of financial education features on digital platforms. This study aims to analyze the influence of financial education features and social media promotion on student investment behavior, with financial literacy as a moderating variable. The primary theory used is the Theory of Planned Behavior (Ajzen, 1991), supported by Financial Literacy Theory, Uses and Gratification Theory, and the Technology Acceptance Model. The research method uses a quantitative approach with a population of student users of the Bibit application in Bali. The independent variables in this study include financial education features and social media promotion, while the dependent variable is investment behavior, while financial literacy is positioned as a moderating variable. The results of this study are expected to provide theoretical contributions to the development of management studies, digital marketing, and behavioral finance, as well as practical benefits for investment application developers, educational institutions, and students in fostering rational, intelligent, and sustainable investment behavior in the digital era.
