This qualitative study aims to explore the effectiveness of reward-and-punishment-based Islamic Religious Education in strengthening students' learning motivation at SMA Negeri 1 Bukateja using Travis Hirschi's social control theory framework. This research was conducted through a case study approach in one of the public high schools in Purbalingga Regency. Data were collected through interviews, participant observation, and documentation studies. The results of the study indicate that the implementation of rewards and punishments functions as a social control mechanism that is able to activate four elements of social bonds: attachment, commitment, involvement, and trust. The reward system in the form of praise, certificates, and gifts has been proven to strengthen the emotional bond between students and teachers, thereby increasing active participation and enthusiasm for learning. Meanwhile, educational punishments, such as reprimands, additional assignments, and community service, are able to build student commitment to rules and reduce indiscipline behavior.This study contributes to the development of Islamic education theory through a social control perspective and serves as a practical reference for Islamic Religious Education teachers in designing effective, fair, and sustainable learning systems.

This study examines the Dayak Ngaju Palui oral story as an object of anecdotal text by analyzing its structure, building elements, linguistic rules, and implied meanings. The research focuses on identifying the structure of anecdotal texts in Palui stories, the elements that construct the stories, the linguistic features used, and the meanings implied within them. The study aims to describe these aspects as part of Dayak Ngaju oral literature. A qualitative descriptive method was used to explain the anecdotal texts in depth. The data consisted of six Palui stories: Palui Tulak Namuei, Bapa Palui Tulak Mambuwu, Bapa Palui Tunggu Parei, Bapa Palui Mananjaru Indu Palui, Indu Palui Buhau bara Huma, and Palui Tulak Mamisi. The findings show that all six stories contain complete anecdotal text structures, including abstraction, orientation, crisis, reaction, and coda. The humorous and satirical elements appear mainly in the crisis and reaction sections, distinguishing them from other text structures. The stories are also supported by clear building elements, such as theme, characters, setting, plot, and point of view.

Classroom management is an important aspect of creating a conducive learning environment and supporting the achievement of learning objectives. This study aims to analyze the permissive approach and the cookbook approach in classroom management based on the results of an interview with a teacher. The research employed a descriptive qualitative method, with interviews used as the primary data collection technique. The findings indicate that the teacher does not fully implement either the permissive approach or the cookbook approach. The teacher provides students with freedom within limits that support the learning process while still enforcing agreed-upon classroom rules. In addition, the teacher does not rely on rigid procedures but instead adapts classroom management strategies to students' characteristics and the situations encountered in the classroom. The study reveals that the teacher tends to adopt an adaptive classroom management approach by combining firmness, empathy, and flexibility, thereby creating an orderly, comfortable, and effective learning environment that supports the achievement of educational objectives.

This study aims to investigate students' perceptions of Qur'an learning (Tahsin and Tajwid) in improving their Qur'an recitation skills at Madrasah Diniyah Nurul Huda Bangodua, Cirebon. This study employed a qualitative approach using a descriptive method. The research participants consisted of 10 fourth-grade students and one teacher responsible for Qur'an learning. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The data were analyzed using the Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña model, which includes data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that students have positive perceptions of Tahsin and Tajwid learning. The learning process helps students improve the pronunciation (makhraj) of Arabic letters, understand the rules of Tajwid, enhance the fluency of Qur'an recitation, and develop greater confidence in reading the Qur'an. Supporting factors contributing to the success of the learning process include the talaqqi method, direct guidance from the teacher, and a conducive learning environment. The challenges faced by students include limited instructional time, difficulty distinguishing certain Tajwid rules, and insufficient practice in reading the Qur'an at home. Overall, Tahsin and Tajwid instruction plays a significant role in improving students' Qur'an recitation skills at Madrasah Diniyah Nurul Huda Bangodua, Cirebon.

Document-level sentiment analysis assigns a single polarity label to an entire review, often obscuring opinion diversity within multi-sentence submissions. This limitation is particularly evident in reviews of multi-service platforms, where users frequently express heterogeneous opinions toward different aspects of the platform in the same review. To address this challenge, this study proposes a sentence-level sentiment analysis framework for Indonesian Gojek app reviews collected from the Google Play Store. The proposed framework introduces a two-stage segmentation strategy that combines punctuation-aware rules with conjunction-aware splitting based on coordinating and adversative conjunctions (e.g., tapi [but], padahal [even though]) to identify opinion boundaries and decompose mixed-sentiment reviews into independently classifiable sentence units. A total of 14,730 raw reviews collected between May and July 2025 were subjected to data cleaning and quality filtering, resulting in 7,187 valid reviews that were further segmented into 14,187 sentence-level instances. Each instance was manually annotated by three annotators using a four-class labeling scheme consisting of app-positive, app-negative, app-neutral, and service categories. Sentiment-level inter-annotator agreement, computed on the subset of instances unanimously categorized as app-related by all three annotators (n = 4,384), achieved substantial agreement (Fleiss'  = 0.636). Hyperparameter optimization was conducted using Optuna with the Tree-structured Parzen Estimator (TPE) sampler across four experimental scenarios. The best performance was achieved by IndoBERTweet under Stratified K-Fold evaluation, attaining an accuracy of 0.751 and a macro F1-score of 0.729, outperforming all IndoBERT configurations. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of domain-adaptive pre-training on informal Indonesian text and highlight the value of conjunction-aware segmentation for preserving fine-grained opinion structures in mixed-sentiment reviews. These findings suggest that domain-aligned language representations provide a practical and effective solution for sentence-level sentiment analysis of Indonesian app reviews.

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. The ritual includes communal prayers, the preparation of offerings, and the release of ducks into the river. 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.

The fiqh principle stating that a leader’s policies and actions toward the people must be based on public welfare is an Islamic legal principle emphasizing that every action and policy of a leader should be oriented toward the interests and well-being of society. This study aims to examine the meaning, normative foundations, concepts, and implementation of this principle in state governance. The research employs a library research method with a normative approach through the analysis of the Qur’an, Hadith, fiqh literature, scholarly journals, and relevant legislation. The findings indicate that this principle has a strong foundation in the Qur’an and Hadith, particularly regarding trustworthiness, justice, and the responsibility of leaders toward their people. Conceptually, this principle is closely related to the theories of maqashid al-shari’ah and siyasah shar’iyyah, which place public welfare as the primary objective of Islamic law. In practice, the principle is applied in various fields, including public administration, law and legislation, religious policies, as well as economic and fiscal policies. Its implementation can be seen in policies concerning the prohibition of interfaith marriage, marriage dispensation, marriage legalization hearings (isbat), the suspension of Hajj departures during the COVID-19 pandemic, and the management of state finances during the era of the Rightly Guided Caliphs. Therefore, this principle demonstrates that Islamic law possesses flexible and adaptive characteristics while maintaining a strong orientation toward public welfare, making it relevant to modern systems of governance.

To address the negative impacts of teenage romantic relationships on peer dynamics and academic achievement at SMP Negeri 5 Sipahutar, school authorities implemented a regulation prohibiting dating, in line with Pancasila character education principles. This study aimed to evaluate the influence of this policy on fostering positive social behavior among ninth-grade students. The research employed a quantitative descriptive approach and involved 81 students as respondents. Data were collected using a four-level multiple-choice agreement questionnaire consisting of ten items. The analysis results showed a total score of 2707, a mean score of 33.42, a standard deviation of 4.8, and an average scale score of 3.34. The findings revealed that 78.2% of students agreed that the regulation encouraged peer cooperation, improved discipline in obeying school rules, and supported effective group learning. In addition, the policy appeared to contribute to a more positive school environment by reducing distractions associated with adolescent dating behavior. These findings indicate that school-based regulations can play an important role in shaping adolescent character and social behavior based on national values. Therefore, such policies may serve as an effective preventive strategy for educational institutions that aim to strengthen character education and promote responsible student conduct.

This study was motivated by the widespread use of Indonesian language that does not conform to standard linguistic rules in Instagram content created by adolescents aged 17–20 years. As a social media platform that emphasizes speed and self-expression, Instagram encourages users to employ slang, nonstandard abbreviations, code-mixing, and various other forms of language deviation. This study aims to analyze the forms of Indonesian language errors found in adolescents’ Instagram content and to identify the factors contributing to these errors. The research employed a descriptive qualitative approach using content analysis. Data were collected through questionnaires distributed to 37 respondents and through an analysis of their language use habits on Instagram. The findings reveal that the most dominant forms of language errors include letter repetition to emphasize emotion (78.3%), nonstandard abbreviations (56.7%), code-mixing between Indonesian and foreign languages (45.9%), and the use of slang (45.9%). The main factors influencing the use of nonstandard language are the desire to appear relaxed and informal (86.5%), the need for fast and practical communication (67.6%), and the influence of peer groups and social media trends. Nevertheless, most respondents are aware that these habits may negatively affect their formal language skills. This study highlights the importance of digital language literacy to help adolescents use Indonesian appropriately according to different communication contexts.

This study aims to analyze the dynamics of adolescent love conflict in the film One Fine Day (2018), directed by Asep Kusdinar, through the lens of Sigmund Freud's psychoanalysis. The main focus of the study is the interaction of the three personality structures: the Id, Ego, and Superego, which shape the main characters' decision-making and behavior when facing romantic dilemmas. Using qualitative research methods with A content analysis approach, this study highlights how the characters Mahesa and Alana experience tension between impulsive drives (Id), demands of reality (Ego), and internalized moral norms (Superego). The results of this analysis indicate that the adolescent love conflict in this film is not merely a matter of superficial emotions, but rather a reflection of psychological struggles in the process of searching for identity. The film effectively visualizes how its characters negotiate desires, social rules, and moral principles, ultimately leading to character growth and emotional maturity. This study confirms the relevance of Freud's theory in understanding the psychological complexity of young people, especially as represented through cinema. 

Low student discipline, such as frequenttardiness, non-compliance with rules, and negligence in completing assignments,is an important topic that needs to be studied. This study aims to analyze the influence of parental attention and learning motivation onthe discipline of high school students. The research method usedis a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) with a descriptive qualitative approach. Data were obtained from various articles, journals, and previous studiesrelevant to the topic in the range of 2012–2025. The results of the studyshow that parental attention as an external factor, throughsupervision, guidance, and emotional support, has a positive andsignificant effect on the formation of student discipline. On the other hand, learning motivationas an internal factor, both intrinsic in the form of motivation to achieve andperseverance, as well as extrinsic in the form of rewards and environmental support,has been proven to encourage students to be orderly, consistent, and responsible intheir studies. These findings confirm that the synergy between parental attention andlearning motivation contributes greatly to shaping student discipline, whichultimately has a positive impact on improving academic achievement andcreating an orderly and conducive school climate.

This study aims to describe the implementation of instilling Islamic Religious Education values in the aspects of the Qur’an and Aqidah at TPQ Fattuhul Qulub, Doyo Baru District. The background of this research is based on the importance of Islamic religious education in shaping children’s character and morals from an early age amid the decline in the morality of the younger generation. 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.

Islamic education emphasizes the formation of disciplined character, which can be developed through habituation from an early age. This study aims to describe the process of forming students’ disciplined character through daily worship habituation at Madrasah Ibtidaiyah Guppi Pagerlor 2. The school was selected due to its relatively small number of students and its structured and intensive worship programs. This study employed a descriptive qualitative approach, with data collected through interviews, observations, and documentation. The findings indicate that the consistent and routine practice of daily worship contributes to the development of students’ discipline, particularly in terms of punctuality, compliance with rules, and responsibility. A structured guidance system, the role of teachers as educators, and the implementation of rewards and educational sanctions were identified as the main supporting factors. However, limitations in facilities and lack of family support remain challenges. Therefore, daily worship habituation plays a significant role in fostering students’ disciplined character and strengthening character education in the madrasah.

The implications of this research underscore the importance of integrating work discipline and organizational systems to sustainably enhance work effectiveness.

This study aims to analyze the strategies for handling bad debts at the Maju Terus Employee Cooperative at SMK Yohanes XXIII Maumere. The main problem faced by the cooperative is the increasing bad debts, most of which come from member arrears on daily transactions through the cash-on-account system, such as purchasing office stationery and photocopy services. This condition affects the cooperative's liquidity and reduces the effectiveness of services to members. The method used in this study is a qualitative descriptive approach with data collection techniques through observation, interviews, and documentation during internship activities. The research results indicate that the main causes of bad debts include low member discipline, lack of supervision, and weak credit management systems. Strategies that can be applied to address these issues include rescheduling payments, establishing stricter credit rules, increasing supervision, as well as providing guidance and education to members on the importance of responsibility in payments. The implementation of these strategies is expected to improve the quality of credit management, maintain the financial stability of the cooperative, and increase the members' welfare sustainably.

This study aims to analyze the regulatory characteristics of the Regulation of the Minister of Home Affairs Number 77 of 2020 as a technical guideline for regional financial management, particularly in examining the tension between its normative nature and mandatory provisions, as well as their implications for regional financial governance. The research employs a normative juridical approach, utilizing both statute and conceptual approaches, complemented by a critical analysis of the regulation’s implementation. The findings indicate that, formally, Regulation No. 77 of 2020 is normative in nature as a guideline; however, in practice, it contains numerous mandatory provisions that bind local governments. These mandatory elements have been shown to enhance accountability and transparency through the standardization of procedures, reporting obligations, and strict supervisory mechanisms. On the other hand, the dominance of detailed rules tends to create policy rigidity, increase administrative burdens, and reduce the flexibility and discretion of local governments in adapting policies to local needs. Furthermore, the study identifies a phenomenon of formalistic or ritualistic compliance, which risks producing symbolic accountability without improving the quality of public services. The effectiveness of the regulation’s implementation is also influenced by disparities in human resource capacity, information systems, and regional fiscal capabilities. Therefore, a balance between mandatory approaches and normative flexibility is necessary to ensure that regional financial governance operates effectively, adaptively, and in accordance with the principles of good governance.

This study aims to examine the effectiveness of implementing the Al Miftah method with a behavioristic approach in improving the ability of students at the Raudlatul Ulum II Islamic Boarding School to read classical Islamic texts. This method provides stimuli in the form of repetitive exercises and positive reinforcement that actively motivate students to learn nahwu and sharaf rules, the main foundations in learning classical Arabic texts. The results of observations and interviews show significant changes in the students' learning behavior; from being passive to being more active, motivated, and able to understand the learning material better. The use of innovative media such as nadhom songs strengthens the memorization of Arabic language rules in a rhythmic and enjoyable way. The role of teachers as facilitators and evaluators is also very important in guiding and motivating students individually. Evaluation of students' abilities through classical Islamic texts reading tests shows that this method is effective in improving reading performance and understanding of classical Islamic texts. Some limitations, such as limited learning time and the number of certified teachers, are concerns for future development.
