This study investigates the effect of using audio-visual learning media on the learning motivation of Package C learners at the Medan City Learning Activity Center (SKB). The research problem addressed is the low learning motivation among nonformal learners, which affects their learning outcomes. The purpose of this study is to determine whether the use of Plotagon-based audio-visual media can significantly increase learner motivation. A quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design (One Group Pretest-Posttest) was used. Data collection was conducted using a Likert-scale questionnaire, validated by an expert and tested on a trial class. The sample consisted of 25 learners. Data analysis included normality tests, homogeneity tests, and hypothesis testing using a paired t-test. The results showed a significant increase in the average motivation score from the pretest (51.84) to the posttest (89.56). The hypothesis test produced a t-count value of 24.156, which was greater than the t-table value of 2.064 at a 5% significance level, with a p-value < 0.001. This indicates a statistically significant difference between the pretest and posttest scores, confirming that the use of Plotagon audio-visual media effectively enhances the learning motivation of Package C learners. The study suggests that integrating interactive and engaging media in nonformal education can improve learning outcomes and student enthusiasm.

Often, retributive approaches in Indonesia's criminal justice system have failed to address minor offenses fairly and efficiently. The study intends to assess the feasibility of restorative justice (RJ) in practice while also addressing the social and institutional challenges that come with handling minor cases in urban and semi-urban areas. Using qualitative methods within a descriptive-evaluative approach, it analyzes 10 real cases from East Jakarta and Depok involving 25 informants from five major stakeholder groups. Findings indicate that almost 80% of the cases were appropriately disposed of through community mediation, the results of which were satisfying to victims, fastened processes, and no harm caused to the offenders. On the contrary, there were some challenges, such as limited knowledge among law enforcement officers, a lack of training, and victims' disbelief in those solutions. It recommends success indicators defined from the culture of field practices and introduces a modeled policy for RJ in the Indonesian context. What makes this research novel is the cross-actor approach and theoretical integration that truly minimizes the gap between law-related formal regulations and restorer justice in practice.

Transnational crime has become an increasingly complex challenge due to globalization and technological advancements, requiring effective legal frameworks to address cross-border offenses. Indonesia's criminal law system faces significant weaknesses compared to the European Union (EU), particularly in extradition mechanisms, international cooperation, and regulatory harmonization. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of Indonesia's criminal law in combating transnational crime by comparing it with the legal framework of the EU. A comparative legal study approach was used, incorporating qualitative analysis of legal regulations, case studies, and interviews with legal practitioners and law enforcement officers. The study examined key aspects such as extradition policies, law enforcement capacity, and cross-border collaboration. The findings indicate that Indonesia’s extradition success rate remains at 45%, significantly lower than the EU's 85%, which benefits from the European Arrest Warrant (EAW). Furthermore, the average case resolution time in Indonesia is approximately 24 months, whereas in the EU, it is around 6 months due to more streamlined procedures. The research also highlights the need for Indonesia to strengthen its law enforcement agencies, as the limited use of digital forensic tools and artificial intelligence-based crime detection hinders investigative efficiency. This study contributes to the discourse on transnational crime by emphasizing the necessity for Indonesia to implement legal reforms that align with global standards, enhance technological adoption in law enforcement, and establish more robust international partnerships. Strengthening these areas will improve Indonesia’s ability to effectively address transnational crime and enhance its integration into the global legal framework.

The oversight and enforcement of the advocate code of ethics in Indonesia continue to face various challenges, affecting the effectiveness of existing regulations. The number of ethical violations among advocates has increased significantly, rising from 120 cases in 2018 to 345 cases in 2023. The most common infractions include conflicts of interest, abuse of authority, and gratuities. One of the primary factors contributing to weak ethical enforcement is the current oversight system, which remains limited to advocate organizations without the involvement of an independent regulatory body. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of advocate oversight mechanisms in Indonesia, compare them with best practices in other jurisdictions, and identify measures to enhance accountability and transparency in the legal profession. The research employs a normative legal method with a comparative law approach and empirical studies. The analysis includes an examination of existing regulations, case reports on ethical violations, and interviews with key stakeholders, including advocates, clients, and legal analysts. The findings indicate that only 40% of reported violations result in strict sanctions, while only 10% of advocates found guilty of ethical breaches face license revocation. Additionally, a survey of 500 respondents reveals that only 35% of the public is aware of the procedures for filing complaints against unethical advocates, highlighting a lack of transparency in the oversight system. This study contributes to the discourse by recommending the establishment of an independent regulatory body to monitor advocate compliance with ethical standards and the enhanced utilization of digital technology in the oversight system. With more transparent and accountable regulatory reforms, ethical violations within the legal profession can be minimized, ultimately strengthening public trust in Indonesia’s legal system.

Improving teacher competency is a key factor in improving the quality of education. One of the latest innovations in teacher professional development in Indonesia is the Merdeka Mengajar Platform (PMM), a digital-based platform designed to provide flexible access to independent training. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of PMM in improving teachers' pedagogical and professional competencies, especially in the context of educational transformation in the digital era. The method used is a literature study, by collecting and analyzing relevant literature from reputable academic sources. The results of the study indicate that PMM significantly improves teacher competency through interactive modules, online learning communities, and digital resources designed for learning personalization. Teachers who participate in training through PMM show better ability in implementing innovative learning strategies compared to those who do not use this platform or participate in traditional training. However, the effectiveness of PMM can be influenced by teachers' technological readiness and digital literacy, especially in areas with limited infrastructure. This study highlights the importance of supporting technology-based education policies to ensure that the benefits of PMM can be felt inclusively and sustainably. In conclusion, PMM is a promising solution to address the teacher training gap in Indonesia, but requires a strategic approach to improve its access and effectiveness. Further research is needed to evaluate the long-term empirical impact of this platform on teacher professional development and student learning quality.

Breast cancer affects women of all ages after adolescence in every country around the world, and its incidence increases with age. One of the efforts to prevent breast cancer is through early screening, which can be done via breast self-examination (BSE). This study aims to analyze the relationship between adolescent girls' perceptions and their behavior regarding breast self-examination at a vocational high school (SMK) in Lhokseumawe City. This research is an observational study with a cross-sectional design. The study was conducted at a vocational high school in Lhokseumawe City with a sample size of 191 students. The selection of research subjects was done purposively according to predetermined criteria. The chi-square analysis results showed that variables such as adolescents' perceptions of severity, self-efficacy, perceived costs, knowledge, family support, and peer support were significantly related to the practice of BSE among adolescents, with a p-value of 0.05. However, after performing multiple logistic regression tests, only the adolescents' perceptions of costs, knowledge, and family support were simultaneously related to BSE behavior, with a p-value of 0.05. Improving adolescents' perceptions of breast self-examination can influence their behavior. Health promotion efforts through information media and involving family and peers as strategies for disseminating health education to adolescents, using demonstrations and involving teachers, are strategies that can be used.
