This study aims to analyze the logo of the State Islamic University of North Sumatra (UINSU) using Charles Sanders Peirce's semiotic approach. Peirce's theory divides signs into icons, indexes, and symbols, and views meaning through a triadic process: representamen, object, and interpretant. With a qualitative approach, this study identifies visual elements in the UINSU logo and interprets their meaning based on the context of Islam, science, and nationalism. The results of the analysis show that each visual component, whether shape, color, or typography, contains deep philosophical and ideological meanings and represents the identity and institutional vision of UINSU.

Self-service technology (SST) is a technological interface that allows customers to obtain services independently. SST includes self-checkout machines, food or ticket ordering kiosks, internet services, automated gas stations, and others. The adoption of SST has been an endeavor for firms to improve service quality, enhance operational efficiency, and increase the likelihood of achieving competitive advantage gains. However, empirical evidence is needed to better understand customer expectations of SST service quality and how SST service quality impacts customer loyalty. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to examine SST service quality and its impact on customer satisfaction and customer loyalty. This study adopts the quantitative method and the self-service technology service quality (SSTQUAL) framework and cognition affective behavior theory. Data collection in this study was carried out by distributing questionnaires via google form with a purposive sampling technique, namely the target respondents were SST users at McDonald's aged 18 to 55 years. The results of the questionnaire collection obtained 285 data analyzed by partial least squares-structural equation model (PLS-SEM) with the help of SmartPLS 4 tools. Based on the results of the analysis conducted, 4 hypotheses were accepted. Self-service technology service quality variables are influenced by 5 quality dimensions such as functionality, enjoyment, assurance, design, and convenience. In addition, the self-service technology service quality variable has a positive influence on the customer satisfaction variable, which in turn positively affects customer loyalty. In other words, the service quality of self-service technology has a positive effect on customer loyalty through customer satisfaction.

The rapid development of information technology has brought convenience to various aspects of life, one of which is through the use of gadgets. Gadgets have become part of everyday life and are popular among all age groups, including early childhood, due to their diverse features for accessing information and entertainment. Although gadget use is often viewed negatively, when used appropriately, gadgets also have the potential to enhance children's digital literacy skills. This study aims to explore the extent of digital literacy skills in early childhood in using gadgets functionally, by their developmental stage. A qualitative approach was employed, using primary data. Informants were selected through purposive sampling, including teachers, parents, and children aged 4–5. Data collection methods included interviews, observation, and documentation, with instruments developed based on components of children’s digital literacy, namely functional skills and beyond functional skills. Data were analyzed through reduction, display, and conclusion drawing/verification. The results indicate that early childhood learners can operate various applications and features on gadgets, including school-based TV apps such as Kahoot!, Quizizz, Wordwall, and Liveworksheet, as well as smartphone features such as calling, camera, games, WhatsApp, and YouTube. These findings suggest that young children are beginning to demonstrate foundational digital literacy skills that are developing well, although adult guidance and supervision remain essential in their use of technology.

Traffic congestion is a common issue in developing metropolitan areas, impacting both economically and socially. Long vehicle queues result in delays for many vehicles, which increases travel time and contributes to deteriorating air quality due to emissions from motor vehicles at intersections. One of the influencing factors is the non-optimization of intersections due to delays. Previous studies commonly use the Highway Capacity Manual Indonesia, 2023, to analyze intersection optimization. However, this study will utilize PTV Vissim software. In planning the intersection, some factors must be considered, such as capacity, density, speed, and type. An average daily traffic survey and a road geometric survey will be conducted in the field survey. The analysis will be performed using PTV Vissim software to optimize the 3 (Three) Talang Buluh intersection in Banyuasin Regency by examining the impact of vehicle queue length and evaluating policies for improving traffic management. According to the analysis results, the data from the First Scenario shows that the maximum vehicle queue length reaches 124.02 meters, with an average delay of 18.75 seconds from the Palembang direction. In the second scenario, installing traffic signal control devices increased the queue length to 287.95 meters from the Betung direction, with the most extended delay reaching 129.52 seconds. The third scenario, which involved geometric changes at the intersection, successfully reduced the vehicle queue length to just 47.70 meters from the Palembang City direction. Additionally, the most extended delay recorded was only 11.59 seconds, demonstrating the effectiveness of this approach, though it is costly and unsuitable for short-term use. Overall, Scenario 1 can serve as a short-term solution for intersection optimization. However, if road widening improvements are feasible, Scenario 3 is the optimal solution for enhancing traffic efficiency and effectiveness, significantly reducing vehicle queues and delays. This is crucial for implementing long-term traffic management strategies at the Talang Buluh Intersection in Banyuasin Regency.

Poverty among foreign nationals is an increasingly pressing global issue that is often overlooked in public policy. This study examines government policies designed to address poverty among migrants and refugees and their impact on their economic well-being. The main focus of the study is to highlight the effectiveness of different policy approaches that have been implemented in different countries and identify best practices that can be adapted to different national contexts. Through an analysis of existing policies in several countries, including Germany and Canada, and relevant case studies, the study finds that approaches based on social and economic integration, employment, and direct assistance can play a significant role in reducing poverty among foreign nationals. The results show that policies that involve collaboration between governments, non-governmental organizations, and local communities are often more effective in achieving the desired outcomes. This study aims to provide evidence-based recommendations for future development policies that are more inclusive and effective. In doing so, it is hoped that this study will contribute to improving the economic well-being of foreign nationals and assist governments in designing policies that are more responsive to the needs of this group.

In Indonesia, restorative justice has begun to receive serious attention, as evidenced by the issuance of several regulations to support its implementation. One of these is the Juvenile Criminal Justice System Law, which incorporates the spirit of restorative justice into efforts to resolve cases involving children through the Diversion mechanism. However, despite the existence of supporting regulations, the implementation of restorative justice in Indonesia still faces various challenges. The purpose of this article is to examine the effectiveness of fulfilling restorative justice in Indonesia. The research results indicate that there are still several shortcomings in the enforcement of restorative justice. Additionally, there is a need for an institution capable of overseeing the implementation of non-litigation processes. The Witness and Victim Protection Agency is considered to have a strong position to act as a supervisor for restorative justice due to its alignment with its duties and functions.

This research is aimed at examining how to protect the rights of indigenous peoples from several practices through a review of legislation. Regulations on customary law communities have long been regulated in Indonesian law, including the constitution. However, overlapping regulations due to conflicts of interest between the government and investors hinder the protection of their rights. Governments are often involved in land and natural resource grabbing, known as land grabbing and green grabbing. This practice triggers complex conflicts that are detrimental and ignore the rights of indigenous peoples. The conflict is rooted in the government's negligence in drafting harmonized rules that should really protect customary law communities.
