Cybergogy-Assisted E-Module to Boost Middle Schoolers’ Digital Literacy in the Mixture Separation Topic

Ramadhani, Novitasari, Subekti, Hasan
Abstract: This study aims to describe the effect of a cybergogy-based approach supported by an e-module in fostering students’ digital literacy on the topic of mixture separation. Motivated by the demands of Industry 4.0/Society 5.0&#8230; 5.0 and low literacy outcomes (e.g., PISA 2022) as well as preliminary findings at SMP Negeri 1 Bagor—where only 50% of students surpassed the Minimum Mastery Criterion (KKM) of 70 in science—the research employed a pre-experimental one-shot case study design with 32 Grade VIII-D students. Digital-literacy performance was measured through a verified posttest and analyzed descriptively and inferentially. Shapiro–Wilk testing indicated non-normality, so a Wilcoxon test was conducted against the KKM benchmark. The mean posttest score was 82.28 (min 75.00; max 91.66), with average achievement across components of 79% (high category); hypertext navigation was the strongest component (94%, very high), while content evaluation was the weakest (64%, high). The Wilcoxon test yielded Asymp. Sig (2-tailed) < 0.001, indicating a significant improvement relative to the benchmark. These findings suggest that the cybergogy-assisted e-module is effective for cultivating students’ digital literacy in mixture separation, with device-access constraints noted as a practical limitation for future implementations.

Erna Suriyani
Abstract: This study aims to determine the Effectiveness of the Family Hope Program (PKH) on the welfare of beneficiary families in Banjarmasin City. This study uses descriptive research, while the research approach uses qualitative.&#8230; ve. Data collection was conducted through in-depth interviews, observations, and documents. From the results of this study, the family hopes the program, seen from the knowledge of PKH beneficiary families towards the program's objectives, was adequate. The independence and behavior change of PKH beneficiary families in accessing education and health services has been evident. They are greatly helped by this program so that it can ease their burden, especially for children's education needs and in accessing health services for pregnant and lactating women and early children under six years. In the short term, this program is quite effective because it can reduce the expenditure burden on beneficiary families even though increasing their income is only limited to the program's assistance. In contrast, in the long term, namely, to break the chain of Poverty and inequality, it has not been effective and takes a long time. Therefore, it is necessary to add a skill component and business funding assistance for people experiencing Poverty in order to create independence and realize community welfare.

Abstract: This study aims to examine the use of Instagram among 6th-semester Economics students at the Institute of Education of South Tapanuli (IPTS), the academic performance of these students, and whether there is a significant&#8230; influence of Instagram usage on their academic performance. A quantitative descriptive research design was employed. The study population consisted of 28 6th-semester Economics students at IPTS, and a total sampling technique was used to include all 28 students. Data were collected using a questionnaire and analyzed through descriptive and inferential statistical methods. The descriptive analysis of Instagram usage yielded a mean score of 75.71, placing it in the "Good" category, while the mean academic score was 81, placing it in the "Very Good" category. Furthermore, inferential statistical testing showed that the calculated t-value (t-count) was greater than the t-table value (5.103 > 1.706). With a significance level of 0.000 at a 95% confidence level (or a 5% error rate/α = 0.05) where the significance value is less than α (0.000 < 0.05) it is concluded that there is a significant influence of Instagram usage on the academic performance of 6th-semester Economics students at the Institute of Education of South Tapanuli (IPTS).

EVALUATION OF THE RETURN ON INVESTMENT FOR THE SCIENCEDIRECT SUBSCRIPTION: EVIDENCE FROM RESEARCH PRODUCTIVITY, CITATION IMPACT, AND ALTMETRICS AT THE UNIVERSITAS TERBUKA (2024–2026)

Ristiyono, Mohamad Pandu, Bashayeva, Nasywaa Sabina
Abstract: This study aims to evaluate the return on investment (ROI) of ScienceDirect subscriptions at Universitas Terbuka during the 2024–2026 period by examining research productivity, publication characteristics, and scholarly&#8230; y impact beyond conventional usage statistics. Rather than assessing subscription value solely through download counts, this study adopts a value-based assessment approach that integrates research performance indicators. A quantitative descriptive design with a bibliometric approach was employed. The dataset comprised 31 Scopus-indexed publications affiliated with Universitas Terbuka published between 2024 and 2026. Data were analyzed using publication productivity, citation performance, publication outlets, publisher distribution, and collaboration patterns. The findings indicate relatively stable research productivity, with 12 publications in 2024, 10 in 2025, and 9 in 2026. Publications were disseminated across various international publishers, predominantly Emerald, Turkish Online Journal of Distance Education, AIP Publishing, and Springer Nature, while no publication in the analyzed dataset appeared in Elsevier journals hosted on ScienceDirect. These findings suggest that the primary value of ScienceDirect lies not in serving as a publication destination but in functioning as a strategic knowledge infrastructure that supports literature discovery, research design, and scholarly writing. Consequently, evaluating subscription ROI should extend beyond COUNTER usage statistics and incorporate research productivity, citation impact, collaboration, and alternative metrics to capture broader institutional benefits. This study contributes a multidimensional framework for assessing electronic resource investments in academic libraries and provides empirical evidence to support evidence-based collection management and research policy in open and distance higher education institutions.

Defisit Firewall Normatif Dan Kerentanan Ganda Taruna Penerbang Dalam Pelaporan Keselamatan Penerbangan Indonesia

Niko Arief Setyawan, Daniel D. Rumani, Yudha Bagus Tunggala Putra, Dimas Hari Cahyo, Chairustakmal
Abstract: Penelitian ini menganalisis defisit firewall normatif dalam perlindungan data keselamatan pada pendidikan penerbang Indonesia serta membangun konsep Double Burden Vulnerability (DBV) pada taruna pra-lisensi. Metode socio-legal&#8230; -legal digunakan dengan bobot dominan analisis doktrinal terhadap ICAO Annex 19 Edisi Ketiga, Undang-Undang Nomor 1 Tahun 2009 tentang Penerbangan, Undang-Undang Nomor 1 Tahun 2023 tentang KUHP, PM 2 Tahun 2026, dan Safety Management System Manual, yang didukung wawancara semi-terstruktur terhadap 14 informan. Tiga belas transkrip dikodekan dalam NVivo melalui dua siklus, sedangkan satu wawancara ahli digunakan untuk validasi doktrinal. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa Pasal 359 Undang-Undang Penerbangan membentuk firewall hanya untuk hasil investigasi kecelakaan dan kejadian serius, sementara Pasal 584 ayat (1) KUHP 2023 memidana kealpaan biasa tanpa mensyaratkan korban. Ketidakpastian status taruna berulang pada tingkat internasional, nasional, dan institusional, serta termanifestasi sebagai ketakutan melapor, quiescent silence, penyaringan oleh senioritas, dan anonimitas yang bersyarat. Reformasi memerlukan ambang kesalahan yang lebih tinggi, perlindungan pelapor yang operasional, dan pengakuan eksplisit taruna sebagai subjek yang dilindungi. This study examines the normative firewall deficit in safety-data protection within Indonesian pilot education and develops the concept of Double Burden Vulnerability (DBV) for pre-licence cadets. A socio-legal design was employed, weighted toward doctrinal analysis of ICAO Annex 19 Third Edition, Law Number 1 of 2009 on Aviation, Law Number 1 of 2023 on the Penal Code, Minister of Transportation Regulation PM 2 of 2026, and the institutional Safety Management System Manual, supported by semi-structured interviews with 14 informants. Thirteen transcripts were coded in NVivo through two cycles, while one legal-expert interview was used for doctrinal validation. The findings show that Article 359 of the Aviation Law provides a firewall only for investigation records concerning accidents and serious incidents, whereas Article 584(1) of the 2023 Penal Code criminalises ordinary negligence without requiring a victim. Cadets’ uncertain legal status recurs across international, national, and institutional rules and manifests socially as fear of reporting, quiescent silence, seniority-based filtering, and conditional anonymity. Reform requires a higher culpability threshold, operational reporter protection, and explicit recognition of cadets as protected reporting subjects.

Penerapan Sanksi Administratif Terhadap Pelanggaran Persetujuan Lingkungan Pada Kegiatan Izin Usaha Pertambangan Nikel Di Kabupaten Luwu Timur

Rini Wahyuni, Abdul Rahman Nur, Salmi, Haedar Djidar, Muh. Rifqy Ramadhan
Abstract: Penelitian ini dilatarbelakangi oleh maraknya pelanggaran Persetujuan Lingkungan dalam kegiatan pertambangan nikel di Kabupaten Luwu Timur yang berdampak pada kerusakan ekologis, sementara penjatuhan sanksi administratif&#8230; belum memberikan efek jera. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis efektivitas penegakan sanksi administratif, mengidentifikasi kendala hukum, serta merumuskan solusi penegakan hukum lingkungan di daerah. Metode yang digunakan adalah penelitian hukum normatif dengan pendekatan perundang-undangan dan konseptual. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penerapan sanksi masih didominasi oleh teguran tertulis dan tindakan perbaikan teknis. Hambatan utama bersumber dari resentralisasi wewenang pasca-Undang-Undang Cipta Kerja, keterbatasan personel pengawas bersertifikasi, dan gugatan korporasi ke Pengadilan Tata Usaha Negara. Sebagai solusi, penelitian ini merumuskan pengoptimalan rekomendasi Berita Acara Pengawasan ke pusat, penerapan prinsip pencemar membayar (polluter pays principle), peluncuran Program Penilaian Peringkat Kinerja Perusahaan dalam Pengelolaan Lingkungan Hidup (PROPER) daerah, penggunaan diskresi darurat, serta pembentukan Satuan Tugas Terpadu lintas yurisdiksi. Solusi ini menjadi langkah strategis untuk menguatkan kolaborasi kelembagaan dan menjamin kelestarian lingkungan yang berkelanjutan. This study is motivated by widespread violations of Environmental Approvals in nickel mining activities in East Luwu Regency, resulting in ecological damage, while administrative sanctions have failed to provide a deterrent effect. This research aims to analyze the effectiveness of administrative sanction enforcement, identify legal obstacles, and formulate environmental law enforcement solutions at the regional level. The method employed is normative legal research utilizing statutory and conceptual approaches. The results indicate that sanction implementation is still dominated by written warnings and technical corrective actions. Primary obstacles stem from the recentralization of authority post-Job Creation Law, a shortage of certified supervisory personnel, and corporate lawsuits filed with the State Administrative Court. As a solution, this study proposes optimizing Supervision Minutes recommendations to the central government, applying the polluter pays principle, launching regional Company Performance Rating Programs in Environmental Management (PROPER), utilizing emergency discretion, and establishing a cross-jurisdictional Integrated Task Force. These solutions serve as strategic steps to strengthen institutional collaboration and ensure sustainable environmental protection. 

Multi-Criteria Evaluation Of Student Career Readiness Using An Intelligent Topsis-Based Decision Support System

Revi Gusriva
Abstract: The assessment of student career readiness requires a systematic approach that considers multiple competencies and experiences relevant to workplace demands. This study develops an intelligent decision support system based&#8230; ed on the Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) to evaluate and map student career readiness. The study uses 20 student samples and five assessment criteria: field-specific competence (C1), internship experience (C2), communication skills (C3), digital literacy (C4), and English language proficiency (C5). Each criterion is assigned a weight based on its relative importance. The TOPSIS method involves decision matrix construction, normalization, weighted normalization, determination of positive and negative ideal solutions, distance calculation, and preference value calculation. The results show that Y11 achieved the highest preference value of 0.8296, followed by Y6 (0.7951), Y19 (0.7274), Y5 (0.7116), and Y2 (0.6999), while Y9 obtained the lowest preference value of 0.3112. Based on the classification results, 1 student (5%) was categorized as Highly Ready, 5 students (25%) as Ready, 12 students (60%) as Moderately Ready, and 2 students (10%) as Not Ready. These findings demonstrate that TOPSIS can effectively rank and classify student career readiness based on multiple assessment criteria. The proposed system can support higher education institutions in identifying students’ readiness levels and developing more objective, targeted, and data-driven career development strategies.
