The population problem faced by almost all developing countries, including Indonesia, is the rate of population growth. A general indicator in population control efforts is the birth rate. Fertility is one of the natural components that determines the rate of population growth, so it is the main indicator in population control efforts. The aim of this research is to determine the effect of education level, employment status, family income, and number of family members, on women's fertility through the age of women's first marriage in Tembuku District, Bangli Regency. This research was conducted in Tembuku District, Bangli Regency. The respondents in this study were 98 female couples of childbearing age using an accidental sampling method . The variables examined in this research are education level, employment status, family income, number of family members, age at first marriage, and female fertility using observation methods, structured interviews and in-depth interviews. The data analysis technique uses path analysis . The results of the research state that 1) Education level, employment status, family income and number of family members have a significant effect on the age at first marriage of women in Tembuku District, Bangli Regency, 2) Education level, employment status, family income and number of family members have a significant effect on women's fertility in Tembuku District, Bangli Regency, 3) Education level, employment status, family income, and number of family members influence women's fertility indirectly through the age of women's first marriage in Tembuku District, Bangli Regency. The level of education, employment status, family income and number of family members will increase the average age at first marriage for women, which will indirectly have an impact on reducing fertility so that it can control the rate of population growth and improve the quality of development economic activities.

Education is a basic right of every individual and has a crucial role in the development of human resources. However, the cost of higher education is often an obstacle for many families, especially in developing countries like Indonesia. This research examines the high cost of higher education from an Islamic legal perspective, highlighting how the Koran offers a solution to this problem. A qualitative approach with literature studies is used to understand the views of Islamic law and Al-Quran solutions regarding higher education costs.

The purpose of writing this paper is to discuss efforts towards achieving international standard State Civil Service (ASN) status. The quality and capabilities of ASN are very important to achieve national development goals, because ASN is an important component in carrying out government functions and providing public services. In the era of globalization and global competition, increasing ASN competency is a demand that cannot be ignored. This research explores the challenges and opportunities faced in creating international standard ASN. One of the things that will be discussed is the importance of training and education to improve ASN capabilities; use of ICT to improve public administration performance; and the importance of ethics and integrity in ASN work. In addition, this paper will present several case studies from countries that have succeeded in achieving high achievements in developing international standard ASN. By comparing the various strategies and approaches that have been implemented, this paper will present recommendations and guidelines for other countries wishing to improve the quality and credibility of their ASN. This research uses qualitative descriptive analysis with literature analysis and case studies. Relevant data is collected from reliable sources, including scientific journals, government reports, and current academic publications. The research results show that achieving international ASN status requires synergy between various parties, including government, academics and the private sector. Changes are needed in the ASN education and training system, with an emphasis on developing competencies that are relevant to global demands. Apart from that, ASN's competitiveness in facing the digital era will be strengthened by the intelligent and sustainable application of information and communication technology. However, the process towards international standard ASN must also be accompanied by the application of high ethics and integrity at all levels of government organizations. An attitude of integrity and professionalism will shape public trust in ASN and strengthen its position as an important pillar in the implementation of transparent and accountable government, such as in the implementation of e-government. This paper increases understanding of the strategies and actions that can be taken to achieve international standard ASN. It is hoped that improving the quality of ASN will increase government effectiveness and increase public satisfaction with good public services.

The field of architecture has undergone rapid development within both academic and professional circles. Digital architecture, a concise term describing the use of communication and information technology in the entire planning and design process, has significantly influenced architectural education worldwide. It serves as a means to bridge the quality gap between architectural education in developed and developing countries. In Indonesia, digital architecture has been a subject of debate since its inception, garnering both proponents and opponents. Many still hold the belief that computers are merely new tools, akin to drawing instruments, for architects. However, the current progress reveals the availability of numerous computer modeling programs that support architectural design. These programs enable the visualization of building conditions before construction, becoming commonplace tools in consultancy firms and educational institutions, embraced by both lecturers and students. Consequently, the impact of information technology on the evolution of the architectural world is evident. The growing reliance on digital modeling programs in architectural design demonstrates a paradigm shift. This technological influence extends beyond individual buildings to encompass urban modeling, both in physical and non-physical aspects. Therefore, it is understood that the influence of information technology will continue to grow in the architectural realm, with digital programs playing a pivotal role in supporting the building design process.
