Gotong royong is a cultural value deeply embedded in Indonesian society, especially in Penglipuran Village, Bali. This village preserves local wisdom that prioritizes togetherness and cooperation in various aspects of life. This study aims to analyze the implementation of gotong royong values in the daily lives of Penglipuran residents and how these values are taught to younger generations. Using a qualitative method with in-depth interviews, the findings reveal that gotong royong is practiced in environmental cleanliness, traditional ceremonies, and other social activities. These values are passed down through informal education within families and project-based activities in schools. Despite the lack of financial support from the government, the community maintains the spirit of gotong royong through social sanctions for those who do not participate. This study highlights how local wisdom can serve as an effective medium for instilling the values of gotong royong in younger generations.

In Tanjungpinang, street vendors' (PKL) resistance to government policy demonstrates the complex dynamics of informal economy management. The purpose of this research is to gain an understanding of the different types of PKL resistance, the methods they use, and how it impacts on local economic policy. Relevant scientific documents were analyzed using a literature study approach. The results show that street vendors not only carry out physical resistance, but also carry out symbolic and cultural actions. As a result, organized social movements emerge. The government's top-down policies often cause tensions, so discussions and cooperation are needed to create more inclusive and participatory policies. Economic empowerment, spatial flexibility, and the development of public-private partnerships are some of the suggested solutions. It is hoped that this research will make a significant contribution to building a policy model that is more responsive to the social realities of society, especially with regard to vulnerable groups.

This study aims to analyze the extent to which motivation influences students' learning interest in the Islamic Cultural History (SKI) subject at MTs Muslimat NU Palangka Raya. The research was prompted by the phenomenon of low student interest in learning, despite the relatively high levels of motivation provided by teachers. A quantitative approach with a descriptive method was employed in this study. The sample consisted of 70 students from grades VII and VIII, selected using a total sampling technique. Data were collected through questionnaires and documentation, and analyzed using simple linear regression with the assistance of SPSS version 25. The results revealed a significant relationship between motivation and learning interest, although the correlation was negative. This is evidenced by a significance value of 0.009, which is less than 0.05, and a correlation coefficient of -0.330. In other words, an increase in motivation appears to be inversely related to students’ interest in the SKI subject. These findings suggest that not all forms of motivation have a positive effect on learning interest, highlighting the need to reevaluate the motivational strategies applied in schools. It is hoped that this study can serve as a reference for educators in developing more effective teaching strategies that can foster student interest in learning in a positive and sustainable

Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) play a significant role in the economy, but often face obstacles in accessing financing. Credit performance guarantee is one of the mechanisms to mitigate risks for financial institutions. Along with the development of financial technology, innovative credit scoring emerged as an alternative method of assessing the creditworthiness of MSMEs. This research aims to analyze the legal effectiveness of the application of MSME credit performance guarantees based on innovative credit scoring. This research uses a normative juridical method with qualitative juridical analysis to try to examine and analyze the problems studied. The application of innovative credit scoring in MSME credit performance guarantees has the potential to increase the legal effectiveness of guarantees through a more comprehensive and accurate risk assessment. However, its implementation requires regulatory clarity regarding scoring standards, personal data protection, and dispute resolution mechanisms. An adaptive and responsive legal framework to technological innovation is crucial to optimize the role of innovative credit scoring in strengthening the effectiveness of MSME credit performance guarantees and promoting financial inclusion.
