Annisa Qoyyima, Elisabeth Romauli Purba, Maria Panjaitan, Tabitha Gabriela Sianipar, Kms. Muhammad Amin Fauzi
Abstract: This study aims to analyze the types of errors made by 11th grade students at SMAS Amir Hamzah Medan in solving geometric transformation problems involving translation, reflection, rotation, and dilation. The study employs… ys a qualitative descriptive approach with a sample of 15 students selected based on high, medium, and low ability categories. Data were collected through essay tests and analyzed using Newman's Error Analysis, which consists of five stages of errors: reading, understanding, transformation, process skills, and writing the final answer. The analysis results indicate that the highest incidence of errors occurred in the understanding stage and process skills stage, each accounting for 36%. Transformation errors accounted for 21.33%, while reading and final answer writing errors were in the very low category, each at 9.33%. These findings indicate that students still face difficulties in understanding basic concepts and technical steps in geometric transformations. Based on these results, it is recommended that teachers implement systematic learning strategies such as Learning Therapy, emphasizing the understanding of prerequisite concepts, writing down known and asked information, and developing the habit of structuring and evaluating solution steps systematically to minimize similar errors in the future.

Strategies for Developing Technical Competence and Soft Skills in Improving Customer Service Quality at NJS Alumunium Bandung

Billy Gustiawan
Abstract: The manufacturing sector in Indonesia, particularly within the aluminum fabrication and extrusion industry, is currently navigating a period of intense structural transition. Historically characterized by a focus on physical&#8230; ical output and technical specifications, enterprises are now increasingly compelled to adopt a service-dominant logic to maintain competitive viability. This research report investigates the strategic implementation of human resource development programs at NJS Alumunium, focusing on the dual-pathway integration of technical competence (hard skills) and interpersonal proficiencies (soft skills). Utilizing the SERVQUAL framework as a primary evaluative tool, the analysis explores how specific technical abilities, such as CNC machining, precision welding, and CAD design, intersect with soft skills like emotional intelligence, communication, and proactive problem-solving to drive customer satisfaction. The study synthesizes data from contemporary Indonesian industrial policies, including "Making Indonesia 4.0," and academic frameworks such as Workplace Learning (WPL) and Total Quality Management (TQM). Findings indicate that while technical mastery is a prerequisite for entry into the high-end aluminum market, soft skills serve as the critical differentiator in fostering customer loyalty and bridging the gap between expectation and perception. The report further details the role of management information systems, the impact of local cultural paternalism in leadership, and the emergence of green capabilities as essential components of a modern competency strategy. The proposed developmental model advocates for a continuous, mentored, and digitally-enabled training ecosystem that aligns organizational capabilities with the sophisticated demands of both domestic and international consumers.

Developing Cash Waqf Model for Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Indonesia

Mohammad Mahbubi Ali, Shabana M. Hasan, Muhyidin
Abstract: MSMEs have played considerable role in the socio-economic development in Indonesia. However, the institutions continue to experience numerous challenges and constrains in various aspects. Among the prominent issues include&#8230; de the financing structure, lack of qualified human resources, complexity of government regulations and bureaucracy in some areas such as business start-up and etc. There is hardly any literature that has critically surveyed the issue of why the MSMEs shy away and whether there is an alternative financing model that they can adopt. The present study critically assesses the related literatures and proposes a viable cash waqf-based model which has the potential to benefit Islamic MSMEs. To ensure the successful running of the cash-waqf based model, it is recommended for the model to be established under the umbrella of a respectable Islamic body, namely Indonesia Waqf Council/Badan Wakaf Indonesia (BWI).
