Mathematical connection ability is a crucial competence that should be developed from the elementary level, as it helps students understand the interrelationships between mathematical concepts and their applications in daily life. This study aims to analyze the mathematical connection abilities of first-grade elementary school students in learning flat shapes. The research employed a descriptive quantitative method using cognitive and psychomotor assessment instruments. The cognitive test consisted of multiple-choice and essay questions measuring students' ability to recognize, understand, classify, and apply flat shapes. The psychomotor test involved tasks such as assembling flat shapes into meaningful objects and classifying shapes by type. The results showed that students were fairly capable of identifying and grouping flat shapes, but had difficulty explaining classification reasons or relating shapes to real-life objects. The psychomotor results also indicated that fine motor skills and the ability to make real-world connections need improvement. These findings highlight the importance of contextual learning approaches and the use of concrete media to strengthen students’ mathematical connections from an early age.
 
 

Critical thinking skills are essential for students to be able to analyze, evaluate, and solve problems systematically. However, during learning, many students still have difficulty in developing these skills, which can be caused by less interactive learning methods and the lack of implementation of effective teaching strategies. This study aims to determine the efforts of social studies teachers in improving critical thinking skills of grade VIII students at SMPN 1 Sumbergempol. This study is a type of case study research. Data collection techniques used are observation, interviews and documentation. This study shows that the efforts made by teachers in improving students' critical thinking in social studies learning are to give students a problem and they must solve the problem, in addition, the use of strategies, methods, models, and learning media also have an effect on improving students' critical thinking, especially in social science learning.

This study aims to analyze the role and strategy of the Security Intelligence Division (Intelkam) of the Bangka Belitung Islands Police in preventing and countering terrorism in an archipelagic region vulnerable to the transit of extremist networks. The research background stems from the high terrorism threat level in Indonesia and the strategic geographic position of Bangka Belitung, which increases the risk of radical infiltration. The urgency lies in the critical need to strengthen the role of regional intelligence as the front line in early detection and counter-radicalization efforts. The research method employs a normative juridical approach, utilizing legal and conceptual frameworks, and is analyzed through a descriptive-qualitative lens. Findings indicate that Intelkam Babel has implemented both preventive and repressive strategies, such as digital surveillance, monitoring of ex-terror convicts, and collaboration with community leaders, although challenges remain regarding human resources, budget constraints, and inter-agency coordination. The novelty of this study lies in its focus on island-based regions and localized approaches to deradicalization strategies. The study concludes that Intelkam's strategies must be enhanced through technological modernization, capacity building, integrated intelligence systems, and expanded locally-rooted deradicalization programs. It is recommended that the implementation be supported by a continuous monitoring and evaluation (M&E) system to ensure sustained and effective terrorism prevention at the regional level.
 
Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis peran dan strategi Intelijen Keamanan (Intelkam) Polda Kepulauan Bangka Belitung dalam mencegah dan menanggulangi tindak pidana terorisme di wilayah kepulauan yang rawan perlintasan jaringan ekstremis lintas pulau. Latar belakang penelitian ini berangkat dari tingginya ancaman terorisme di Indonesia serta posisi geografis strategis Bangka Belitung yang membuka peluang infiltrasi radikalisme. Urgensi penelitian terletak pada pentingnya penguatan peran intelijen daerah sebagai garda terdepan dalam deteksi dini dan kontra-radikalisasi. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah yuridis normatif dengan pendekatan konseptual dan perundang-undangan, serta dianalisis secara kualitatif-deskriptif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Intelkam Polda Babel telah menjalankan strategi preventif dan represif, seperti patroli digital, pengawasan eks-napiter, serta pelibatan tokoh masyarakat, namun masih menghadapi tantangan seperti keterbatasan SDM, anggaran, dan sinergi antar-lembaga. Kebaruan penelitian ini terletak pada fokus wilayah kepulauan dan pendekatan lokal terhadap strategi deradikalisasi. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa strategi Intelkam perlu diperkuat melalui modernisasi pemantauan, peningkatan kapasitas SDM, integrasi sistem intelijen, dan perluasan program deradikalisasi berbasis kearifan lokal. Direkomendasikan agar strategi yang dijalankan didukung oleh evaluasi berkelanjutan berbasis monitoring and evaluation (M&E) untuk memastikan efektivitas dan keberlanjutan pencegahan terorisme di tingkat daerah.

Tujuan penelitian ini adalah memotret praktik good governance di Badan Usaha Milik Desa (BUMDes) Maju Rahayu, Jatirunggo. Paradigma interpretif dengan metode studi kasus digunakan dalam penelitian ini. Data penelitian berasal dari informan yang ikut dalam kegiatan pengelolaan BUMDes dan masyarakat Desa Jatirunggo. Hasil penelitian menemukan bahwa BUMDes dikelola dengan menerapkan prinsip good governance, meliputi prinsip partisipasi masyarakat, transparansi, akuntabilitas, daya tanggap, penegakan hukum, efektivitas dan efisiensi, kesetaraan, orientasi pada konsensus, dan visi strategis. Penerapan prinsip tersebut adalah kunci sukses peningkatan kinerja BUMDes Maju Rahayu. Namun demikian, masih ditemukan beberapa penerapan prinsip good governance yang belum optimal di sana. Ini terjadi karena keterbatasan sumber daya manusia membuat rangkap jabatan masih dilakukan, kesulitan mengindentifikasi dan mencatat transaksi keuangan BUMDes, pelaporan pertanggungjawaban dan rencana kerja kepada warga belum dilakukan menggunakan teknologi internet dan website, serta kurangnya komitmen masyarakat, pengelola BUMDes, dan pemerintah desa untuk berpartisipasi aktif dalam kegiatan usaha BUMDes. Oleh sebab itu, BUMDes masih perlu untuk melakukan upaya peningkatan kemampuan sumber daya manusia, melalui pelatihan baik itu manajemen, keuangan, dan penguasaan teknologi informasi serta melakukan penambahan karyawan, jika diperlukan.

Abstract. This study explores the complex aspects of stock valuation and decision-making on the Jakarta Stock Exchange (JKSE), focusing on the Energy Sector, particularly within the Sub-Industry of Oil, Gas, & Coal Equipment & Services. The primary objective is to ascertain "Buy" and "Sell" recommendations grounded in anticipated returns and stock performance. This classification stems from a meticulous examination of each stock's alignment with both its intrinsic value and the overarching market value of the JKSE. Seven stocks (DEWA, DOID, MYOH, PKPK, PTRO, UNIQ, and WINS) merit "Buy" endorsements, as their projected returns surpass their present market valuations, potentially indicating undervaluation. Conversely, "Sell" recommendations are assigned to four companies (ITMA, RUIS, SICO, and TAMU) in cases where projected returns fall short, suggesting either underperformance or overvaluation. Incorporating Python and the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM), this analysis yields a noteworthy insight. Companies like WINS and DOID display a substantial association with the JKSE market value, as evidenced by their notably low P-values of 0.014 and 0.038, respectively. In contrast, the P-values for other companies fall below the 0.05 threshold, implying that the market value of JKSE lacks a substantial impact. This research highlights the complex relationships involving market valuations, stock performance, and investor choices. By discerning the various degrees of correlation and comprehending the factors that influence "Buy" and "Sell" recommendations, investors can adeptly navigate the intricacies of the market and optimize their investment returns.
