The expository learning strategy in Islamic Religious Education (PAI) remains relevant as a classical Islamic scholarly heritage but requires creative transformation to address digital-age challenges. This article examines the implementation of expository strategies through literature study, analyzing philosophical foundations, effectiveness, contemporary challenges, and innovation models. The research reveals that expository strategies are effective for normative PAI materials but face complex challenges including shifting cognitive patterns of digital natives, decentralization of knowledge authority, and technological disparities. Various innovative models (interactive, contextual, multimedia, reflective) offer solutions by integrating traditional expository strengths with modern approaches. The study concludes that successful implementation requires paradigmatic reconstruction through "pedagogical ijtihad" balancing Islamic scholarly authenticity with 21st-century learning needs. PAI teachers must master three core competencies: depth of religious knowledge, pedagogical sophistication, and technological literacy.

This study aims to analyze the effect of e-wallet usage on consumer savings behavior and spending patterns in Indonesia. In the digital era, e-wallets have become a commonly used transaction tool due to their convenience, speed, and various promotional features offered. However, behind their convenience, e-wallets also pose new challenges in personal financial management, such as increased consumer behavior and decreased savings intentions. This study uses a quantitative explanatory approach with a cross-sectional survey design to understand the relationship between the intensity of e-wallet usage and consumer savings and spending habits. The results of the study show that ease of transactions and digital incentives can encourage spontaneous consumption behavior and weaken awareness of the importance of saving. However, with adequate digital financial literacy, e-wallets also have the potential to be a tool in managing finances wisely. This study emphasizes the importance of digital financial education so that people can utilize financial technology in a healthy and sustainable manner.

The digital era has brought significant changes in various aspects of life, including building civic awareness. Islamic preaching as an effort to convey Islamic teachings and values has an important role in shaping characters and increasing public awareness of the rights and obligations of citizens, and also has a strategic role in instilling national values and social responsibility in a society that is increasingly digitally connected. By utilizing digital technology, preaching can be an effective means of spreading moral messages, ethics, and national values that are in line with Islamic teachings. Social media such as digital platforms, podcasts, websites, and so on make it easier for preachers to convey preaching more widely, so that they can reach various communities. This research was conducted through case studies and examining in more depth digital preaching activities through a particular institution or individual such as a YouTube account, digital preaching podcast or digital preaching community and observing public response to preaching content on social media. And analyzing the content by seeing to what extent the message that has been conveyed contains civic values such as tolerance, democracy and the rights and obligations of the state. Therefore, optimizing digital preaching is an urgent need in an effort to build a strong civic awareness based on Islamic values. Through digital communication such as educational content, preaching can increase individual awareness of their rights and obligations as citizens.    

MSMEs play a key role in the national economy, especially in increasing economic growth and creating new jobs. However, in the digital era, MSMEs face major problems, such as low levels of digital literacy, limited access to the internet, and fierce competition with large companies that have used technology before. This study examines the variables that influence the sustainability of MSMEs amidst digital challenges and finds methods that can be used so that MSMEs can survive and grow. The research method was carried out through surveys and direct interviews with MSME actors at Pasar Pagi Setia Budi, Medan, North Sumatra. The results of the study showed that most MSME actors did not utilize digital platforms for marketing and transactions, which resulted in decreased income. To increase competitiveness, MSMEs need to improve their digital knowledge, adopt online marketing strategies, and optimize the use of e-commerce and social media. Support from the government, financial institutions, and technology companies is also very important. In the increasingly competitive digital era, by implementing the right digitalization strategy, MSMEs can improve operational efficiency, expand market reach, and maintain the sustainability of their business.

The Jelekong landfill was a temporary landfill site following a landslide at the Leuwigajah landfill. TPA Jelekong was officially closed at the end of 2005 because it was no longer able to accommodate the increasing volume of waste. However, the impact of activities from the former landfill still has the potential to pollute the environment, especially groundwater sources. The research aimed to identify the physical and chemical parameters of water in the Jelekong ex-landfill case study area and the surrounding area, and to compare the physical and chemical parameters of water between the Jelekong ex-landfill and the landfill that is still operating (Sarimukti landfill). Data were obtained from 4 water sample points and tested using several test methods, namely Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS), Ion Chromatography (IC), alkalinity, and stable water isotopes. The results showed that the physical characteristics of the Jelekong area generally have a neutral pH with one point having an alkaline pH (JL-02) due to interaction with andesite lithology and the highest DO concentration at point JL-02. While the Sarimukti landfill has a pH value of 7.89-8.27 indicating the result of high bicarbonate concentrations, the TDS value of 15700-18200 ppm indicates the large number of ions and solutes derived from organic and inorganic waste. Piper diagrams show two water facies in the Jelekong area, Ca-HCO3 and Na-HCO3. Sample JL-03 indicates a mixture with landfill leachate due to high Cl and SO4 concentrations. Sample JL-01 still indicates leachate because when compared to the sarimukti sample, the Cl and SO4 concentrations are still quite high indicating a result of both organic and inorganic waste. Stable isotope test results indicated that the water was derived from local precipitation.

iNKT cells, sometimes known as the immune system's "Swiss Army knife," have become key components of cancer vaccination treatments. Glycolipids that activate iNKT cells, including ?-galactosylceramide (?GalCer), have been used to create self-adjuvanting anti-tumor vaccinations and can boost the immune response to co-delivered cancer antigens. The chemicals synthesis of ganglioside antigens, specifically (Neu5Gc) GM3 and GM3 antigen, and conjugations to ?GalCer, and packaging into liposome as effective platforms for their in vivo deliverying are the main topics of this work. In mouse and human cell experiments, liposome containing, (Neu5Gc) GM3-?GalCer, GM3-?GalCer, and equimolar quantities of conjugates have thoroughly described and their capacities to activate iNKT cell has verified ex vivo. All subclasses of IgG antibodies were produced as a result of the candidates' potential to generate both TH1 and TH2 cytokines, according to in vivo immunization tests. Interestingly, this study shows serum antibody produced against the TACA were cross-reactive, both when they were produced separately and together. If tumor-selective antigens is selected, the ensuing antibodies response can be wider than expected, which has implications for future vaccine formulations.

Most students who have just arrived and live in a new area experience culture shock. This is because it is difficult to adapt and adjust to their social life. Social support is very important to be given especially to new students, because social support can provide comfort and a feeling of being loved. Method: Quantitative research type with cross sectional approach. The sample used was 100 students in Lasem with the technique used was total sampling. The correlation test used in this study was the Chi-square test. The results of the study showed that the majority of students had good social support with moderate culture shock, namely 58 students (58%). Based on the Chi-square test, a p-value of 0.000 (<0.05) was obtained, which means that there is a relationship between social support and culture shock in students at Islamic Boarding Schools in Lasem. There is a close relationship between social support and culture shock in students in Lasem (p value 0.000).
