The application of learning media based on Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is an important part in improving the quality of learning in elementary schools, especially in class V of SD Al-Irsyad Al-Islamiyyah Pekalongan. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of using ICT media in improving interactivity, attractiveness, and flexibility of learning, as well as identifying obstacles faced during the teaching and learning process. The method used is qualitative with data collection techniques in the form of in-depth interviews with teachers, questionnaires to students, and direct observation of the learning process. Qualitative data was analyzed using a thematic approach, while quantitative data was processed descriptively and inferentially to measure student engagement and understanding. Data triangulation was conducted to ensure the validity and reliability of the findings. The results show that ICT media can increase students' motivation and involvement in learning, provide flexibility in accessing materials, but there are obstacles in the form of adjusting learning materials and limited supporting infrastructure. In conclusion, the integration of ICT media in basic learning needs to be supported by training for teachers and infrastructure development so that its implementation is more optimal and has a positive impact on the quality of education.

The advancement of information and communication technology has revolutionized educational paradigms, demanding the presence of innovative and contextual learning methods. One transformative approach that is increasingly being adopted in the context of elementary education is the Virtual Field Trip (VFT) a digital-based field trip simulation that allows students to explore various educational locations virtually. This article aims to thoroughly analyze the implementation of VFT in elementary-level learning using a qualitative approach based on grounded research and life-history methods. Through observation techniques, in-depth interviews, focus group discussions, and the analysis of digital and audiovisual documents, this study reveals three main findings:  (1) VFT can broaden students' horizons and sharpen their imagination by virtually bridging real learning experiences; (2) This approach enhances student engagement and enthusiasm through immersive visual and interactive presentations; and (3) Learning becomes more meaningful and contextual, as students can understand concepts directly and in an applied manner. The analysis shows that VFT is not only a pedagogical solution to physical and geographical limitations but also a strategic tool to promote critical thinking, global awareness, and cross-cultural understanding from an early age. Nevertheless, the effectiveness of VFT implementation is highly influenced by technological readiness, educators’ digital competence, as well as institutional and parental support. Therefore, a comprehensive and adaptive implementation strategy is needed to optimize the potential of VFT as an inclusive and sustainable future learning instrument in elementary schools.

This study examines the concept of state finance regulation in emergency situations to address economic crises and support post-Covid-19 recovery in Indonesia. The pandemic has significantly impacted economic stability, requiring swift and effective legal responses in state finance management. This research employs a normative approach by analyzing legislation related to state finance in emergencies and fiscal policies implemented during the pandemic. The findings reveal that while a legal framework for emergency state finance management exists, its implementation often faces challenges in coordination and accountability. This study recommends strengthening regulations to be more adaptive and proactive in managing state finances during emergencies, as well as enhancing oversight to ensure the effectiveness of sustainable economic recovery. The implications of this research provide a better legal framework for the government to handle future crises.

This paper aims to provide an explanation of the contribution of Islamic banking in the framework of national economic development, considering that the Islamic industry has developed rapidly in the last few decades. The method used is a systematic literature review (SLR) by documenting several articles that have similar research. The findings show that economic development aims to improve the welfare of its people. The success of a country's development can be seen from a high and sustainable level of economic growth. This growth can be seen through the increase in the production of industrial goods, the number of schools, the increase in infrastructure, and the increase in the service sector. Economic development will have an impact on changes in the economic structure towards a better stage, so that socio-economic aspects in society can be seen in the form of reduced poverty, unemployment, and increased people's purchasing power. Unstable economic growth has resulted in Indonesia still being in the middle income zone, therefore the participation of all elements of the government, society and the banking sector is no exception. Banking has an important role in advancing the national economy, besides functioning as a collector and distributor of public funds, banking also aims to support the implementation of national development in the framework of increasing equity and economic stability towards increasing the welfare of the community at large. Especially in the Islamic economy, Islamic banking seeks to accelerate economic growth by carrying out financial, commercial and investment activities in accordance with Islamic teachings. Islamic banks are not only banks that eliminate the interest system in their operations but also carry out social welfare oriented roles. The Islamic banking industry has a strategic role in the development of the people's economy, contributing to transforming the economy into productive, value-added and inclusive economic activities.
