cepts and practices of parental spiritual education. The findings indicate that active parental involvement, through the application of moral values, behavioral modeling, and open communication, significantly contributes to children's emotional, social, and academic development. The research reveals that children receiving adequate spiritual education are likely to possess better psychological resilience and more mature interpersonal skills. Although challenges such as economic pressures and time constraints hinder spiritual education at home, support from educational institutions and collaboration with the community can enhance its efficacy. The implications of this research highlight the importance of strengthening parental roles in spiritual education to shape children's character and moral identity, as well as to prepare them for future challenges. These findings provide valuable insights for the development of educational policies that emphasize parental involvement in supporting children's spiritual education.

es the use of design applications as a means of supporting the learning process. The research method used was a quantitative survey involving 30 students as respondents who were selected purposively, namely those who had direct experience using canva. The data collection instrument was a Likert scale questionnaire with 20 statements covering aspects of ease of use, time efficiency, quality and creativity, academic benefits, collaboration, limitations, and satisfaction levels. The results showed that the majority of students had a positive view of using canva. This application was considered easy to operate even without in-depth design skills, helping to speed up the preparation of presentations, while also improving the quality and creativity of the display. In addition, canva is considered to provide real academic benefits, support collaboration, and encourage the exploration of diverse visual styles. However, there are still a number of weaknesses, such as the limitations of the free version, visual designs that are considered less suitable for formal academic contexts, and a small number of students who feel that their creative space is limited. From this research, it can be concluded that canva can be used as an alternative medium to support the learning process in higher education, particularly in developing students' presentation skills. Lecturers and educational institutions can also utilize canva as an innovative learning tool that encourages creativity, collaboration, and improves the quality of material delivery. In addition, the results of this study can be used as a basis for developing policies on the use of digital media in academic activities that are more effective and relevant to students' needs.

Abstract:This study aims to analyze the Implementation of Traffic Engineering Policy: A Case Study of One-Way and U-Turn Systems in Pekanbaru City and identify inhibiting factors in its implementation. The background of this study…
y is based on traffic problems such as congestion and accidents that are increasing along with the growth of motorized vehicles that are not balanced by adequate road infrastructure. The Pekanbaru City Government through the Transportation Agency has implemented various traffic engineering policies, including the one-way system and the closure of U-Turns at certain points. The method used is a qualitative approach with data collection techniques through interviews, observation, and documentation. The results of the study indicate that the implemented policies have had a positive impact, but their implementation still faces obstacles such as lack of public awareness, limited infrastructure, and less than optimal coordination between institutions. This study recommends the need for more massive socialization and increased synergy between institutions to support the successful implementation of traffic engineering policies.

etiveness of e-catalogs, the involvement of local business actors, and cooperation between local government agencies. The aim of this research is to analyze and describe the e-procurement process within a collaborative framework and to identify the obstacles faced. This research uses a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techinuques through interviews with the local UKPBJ of Pekanbaru City, the Departement of Trade and Industry of Pekanbaru City, the Inspectorate of Pekanbaru dan the Department of Cooperatives and MSMEs of Pekanbaru City. The result of this study indicate that collaboration among actors is on going but not yet optimal, especially in horizontal dimensions. The involvement of local business actors is still limited due to a lack of technical assistance and information. This research recommends strebgthening the role of local governments as facilitators of collaboration, enchancing the capatity of business actors, and fostering synergy between institutions to achieve participatory, transparent procurement using domestic products.
Abstract:Despite decades of global HIV/AIDS education efforts, the gap between awareness and preventive behavior among youth remains a persistent challenge. University students—typically well-educated and socially engaged—are expected…
expected to be proactive in health matters, yet many remain passive in HIV prevention efforts. This study examines the knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors of university students in Indonesia regarding HIV/AIDS, and analyzes the cognitive and structural barriers that hinder behavioral change. The research applies two theoretical frameworks: the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) and the Health Belief Model (HBM). A quantitative survey was conducted among 268 students at Hasanuddin University. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to assess levels of HIV/AIDS knowledge, attitudes, and preventive actions. Skewness and kurtosis were also calculated to explore distributional patterns. While students demonstrated high levels of knowledge (M = 16.34) and positive attitudes (M = 31.36), their preventive behavior was notably low (M = 10.74), with skewed distributions indicating widespread inaction. Misconceptions about HIV transmission and curability were common. Both TPB and HBM helped explain the role of perceived barriers, weak normative support, and low self-efficacy in limiting behavioral intention. Findings highlight a critical knowledge–action gap driven by social stigma, misinformation, and lack of institutional cues to action. Effective HIV prevention requires not only awareness but also structured interventions that enhance agency, normalize testing, and dismantle behavioral barriers within youth populations

ocultural functions of care practices. Based on ethnographic fieldwork in Makassar, Indonesia, including interviews and participant observation with ten pregnant women, the study reveals that reproductive behavior is shaped by adaptive strategies (A), collective goals (G), moral integration (I), and intergenerational transmission of norms (L). Rather than following a singular medical logic, women mobilize syncretic forms of care that blend biomedical treatment, spiritual rituals, and ancestral taboos. These plural responses reflect not only epistemic hybridity but also reproductive governance enacted through kinship, religious authority, and clinical institutions. Women's agency is expressed not through open resistance, but through strategic moral navigation and embodied alignment with normative expectations—a form of what Mahmood terms the ethics of self-formation. The findings challenge biomedical-centric approaches to maternal health and highlight the need for culturally responsive interventions that respect local logics of risk, protection, and care. This study contributes to sociological debates on medical pluralism, moral regulation, and the reproduction of gendered knowledge in the Global South.
Abstract:This study aims to analyze the influence of entrepreneurship education on entrepreneurial interest among students at Lingga Buana PGRI University Sukabumi. Entrepreneurship is a key driver of economic growth and job creation,…
tion, thus higher education institutions need to optimize entrepreneurship education to foster students' entrepreneurial interest. This research employs a quantitative approach with descriptive and correlational design. The population consists of students who have taken entrepreneurship courses, with a sample of 300 respondents selected using proportionate stratified random sampling technique. The research instrument is a structured questionnaire using a 5-point Likert scale that has been tested for validity and reliability. Data analysis technique uses simple linear regression analysis with SPSS version 25 software. The results show that entrepreneurship education has a positive and significant effect on students' entrepreneurial interest with a correlation coefficient (R) of 0.721 and coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.520. This means that 52% of the variation in entrepreneurial interest can be explained by entrepreneurship education. Descriptively, entrepreneurship education received a "Good" rating (mean = 3.78) and students' entrepreneurial interest was in the "High" category (mean = 3.92). This research provides an important contribution to developing more effective entrepreneurship education strategies in higher education institutions.
Abstract:The Minister of Education and Science and Technology stated that MBKM will be continued with various improvements. The Independent Campus (MBKM) was initiated by the Minister of Education and Culture through the Regulation…
on of the Minister of Education and Culture Number 3 of 2020 concerning National Standards for Higher Education, especially in articles 18 and 15, aiming to answer the challenges of the capacity of higher education institutions that have not been able to adapt quickly to prepare relevant and quality graduates with the presence of Industry 4.0. Based on this decision, Bina Mandiri University Gorontalo has participated in and run the MBKM program. However, the implementation is still limited so that the scope of implementation is only at one point and then affects the development of unsustainable programs. Related to the MBKM program, undergraduate students of Educational Technology have been trained and are able to design software, one of which is for libraries in schools. This was proven in the implementation of previous research entitled The Impact of MBKM Project-Based Learning on Problem Solving for Undergraduate Students of Educational Technology at Bina Mandiri University, Gorontalo. Considering that the MBKM program is important to run and its sustainability is expected, its implementation is very urgent. In coastal areas, especially schools in Randangan Village, Pohuwato Regency, Gorontalo Province, it is known that digitalization in the implementation of education has not been effective, so there needs to be digitalization of library software to support student learning activities outside school hours or on holidays. The purpose of this study is to implement MBKM: a digitalization project and the use of library software in schools in Randangan Village, Pohuwato Regency, Gorontalo Province.

Abstract:Islamic Religious Education (PAI) faces complex challenges in maintaining relevance and quality amidst social change, technology, and demands for public accountability. Two main concepts in educational quality management—continuous…
—continuous improvement and quality assurance—are often discussed separately, despite their fundamentally synergistic relationship. This study aims to conceptually examine the integration of continuous improvement and quality assurance in the context of PAI, addressing how both frameworks can be operationalized simultaneously to improve the quality of PAI delivery. Using a systematic literature review method through Google Scholar and Publish or Perish (PoP) for the 2019–2026 period, 25 relevant articles were analyzed from 80 initial findings. The results show that quality assurance functions as a holding system that establishes standards, while continuous improvement acts as a driving force encouraging innovation and adaptation. However, in PAI practice, tension exists between standard compliance (QA) and the need for dynamic change (CI). This article offers an integrative framework called the Adaptive Quality Cycle (AQC), combining the Plan-Do-Check-Act cycle with Islamic principles such as muhasabah (self-evaluation), tahsin (continuous improvement), and itqan (professionalism). This integration is key for PAI institutions to not only meet minimum standards but also continuously develop dynamically without losing their Islamic identity.
