Abstract

Marginalized urban communities face linguistic pressures threatening their heritage languages. This study examines language preservation in environments where language is a key site of identity struggle. This sociolinguistic research investigates the specific strategies of language maintenance and identity negotiation utilized by a marginalized urban community, aiming to identify key factors enabling linguistic resilience against dominant language encroachment. A qualitative ethnographic approach was employed, using participant observation and in-depth sociolinguistic interviews (n=45). The analysis focused on language choice across social domains and the metalinguistic narratives speakers used to articulate identity. Findings indicate resilience is achieved through “covert maintenance,” reinforcing the heritage language in private domains as resistance. Identity negotiation is fluid, with strategic code-switching used to signal affiliation. Public language use showed assimilation, but private use demonstrated strong vitality.  Linguistic resilience in this community is a conscious act of social agency and identity negotiation, not passive retention. The community preserves its language through strategic domain management, proving vitality is inextricably linked to identity.

Abstract

significant legal and ethical questions, particularly in Muslim-majority countries like Indonesia, where Islamic law (Shariah) plays a central role in financial regulation. This study examines the role of Islamic law in regulating cryptocurrency and blockchain technology, focusing on Indonesia’s regulatory framework. The research aims to assess the compatibility of these technologies with Shariah principles and identify gaps in the current regulatory approach. By doing so, it seeks to provide recommendations for developing a Shariah-compliant regulatory framework that balances innovation with ethical and legal considerations. Using a mixed-methods approach, this study combines legal analysis of Indonesia’s regulatory framework with qualitative interviews with Islamic scholars, regulators, and industry experts. Data were analyzed to evaluate the alignment of cryptocurrency and blockchain technology with Shariah principles, such as the prohibition of riba (interest) and gharar (uncertainty). The findings reveal that while blockchain technology has potential applications in Islamic finance, cryptocurrencies face significant challenges due to concerns over volatility, speculation, and lack of intrinsic value. The study concludes that Indonesia’s regulatory framework must be adapted to address the unique challenges posed by cryptocurrency and blockchain technology while ensuring compliance with Shariah principles.

Abstract

The rapid expansion of hybrid learning environments in Southeast Asia has intensified the need for culturally grounded approaches to digital citizenship education. Most existing digital citizenship models originate from Western contexts that prioritize individual autonomy, overlooking the collective ethics and cultural values embedded in Southeast Asian societies. The Neosantara framework, rooted in the integration of local wisdom (Nusantara) with global digital ethics, offers a culturally responsive pathway for nurturing ethical, responsible, and empathetic digital learners. This study aims to examine how Neosantara-based pedagogy fosters digital citizenship within hybrid learning settings by aligning moral education, technological fluency, and cultural identity. A qualitative multiple-case study design was employed across three hybrid schools in Indonesia and Malaysia, involving 30 participants, including teachers, students, and curriculum developers. Data were collected through interviews, classroom observations, and document analysis, then analyzed thematically using a constructivist approach. The findings revealed that integrating Neosantara principles—such as gotong royong (mutual cooperation), tanggung jawab (responsibility), and santun digital (digital courtesy)—enhanced students’ digital ethics, collaboration, and cultural empathy. Statistical analysis supported these qualitative insights, with significant improvements in digital ethics awareness (M = 4.36) and cultural integration (M = 4.45). The study concludes that embedding Neosantara cultural ethics into hybrid learning fosters holistic digital citizenship that balances global digital competence with local moral grounding. The Neosantara Pedagogical Framework provides a replicable model for developing culturally sustainable and ethically resilient hybrid education across Southeast Asia.

Abstract

Background. The integration of Augmented Reality (AR) into history education holds the potential to enhance student engagement and comprehension by providing immersive, interactive learning experiences. A mixed-methods approach was adopted, combining pre- and post-tests with interviews and focus groups. The findings suggest that AR can serve as a transformative tool in history education, bridging the gap between abstract content and lived experience. Purpose. This study investigated the effectiveness of AR-enhanced history lessons in Japanese high schools. A total of 200 students aged 15–18 participated in a quasi-experimental study, with one group receiving AR-based instruction and a control group continuing traditional methods. Method. Quantitative results showed a 25% improvement in historical knowledge among AR users versus 5% in the control group (p < 0.001). Qualitative feedback indicated higher engagement, improved retention, and greater enthusiasm toward history learning. Results. The findings indicate a significant increase in student engagement and understanding of historical events, with 85% of students reporting improved retention and a deeper understanding of history. Teachers noted a positive shift in students’ enthusiasm for learning history. Conclud.  AR technology enhances history education by providing immersive and interactive learning experiences, leading to greater student engagement and better knowledge retention.

Abstract

Background. Growing environmental challenges, climate-related financial risks, and increasing global commitments to sustainable development have intensified the importance of legal frameworks in directing capital toward environmentally responsible investments. Emerging markets face particular pressure to balance rapid economic growth with environmental sustainability while strengthening investor confidence, regulatory transparency, and institutional accountability. Purpose. This study aimed to evaluate the role of law in promoting sustainable finance and green investments in emerging markets by examining the relationships among legal quality, regulatory effectiveness, institutional governance, investor protection, and sustainable financial development. Method. A mixed-methods sequential explanatory design was employed using comparative data from 24 emerging market economies observed over a ten-year period. Quantitative analyses incorporated descriptive statistics, structural equation modeling, hierarchical regression, mediation and moderation analyses, while qualitative evidence from expert interviews, policy document reviews, and institutional observations was analyzed through thematic analysis. Results. Findings demonstrated that legal certainty significantly strengthened sustainable finance development, investor confidence, financial transparency, and green investment performance. Sustainable finance partially mediated the relationship between legal quality and investment outcomes, whereas institutional governance enhanced the effectiveness of regulatory implementation. Conclusion. Sustainable green investment depends upon the coordinated integration of legal certainty, regulatory quality, institutional governance, financial transparency, and environmental accountability, providing an evidence-based foundation for resilient financial systems and long-term sustainable economic development in emerging markets.

Abstract

Background. This research is motivated by the need to develop Islamic Religious Education (PAI) teaching materials that are not only normative-doctrinal in nature, but also contextual to the socio-cultural realities of students. To date, PAI modules tend to be less accommodating of local wisdom and prophetic values that encompass the dimensions of humanization, liberation, and transcendence, so that learning has not fully formed a holistic character. Purpose. Therefore, this study aims to develop an PAI module based on local wisdom and prophetic values that is valid, practical, and effective in improving the quality of learning. Method. The research method used is research and development (R&D) with a development model that includes the stages of needs analysis, product design, expert validation, limited trials, and product revision. The research instruments are in the form of validation sheets, student response questionnaires, and learning outcome tests. Results. The results show that the developed module has a high level of validity based on expert assessments, and is considered practical and easy to use in the learning process. Furthermore, the implementation of this module has proven effective in enhancing students' understanding of Islamic Religious Education (PAI) material while simultaneously instilling local wisdom and prophetic values in everyday life. The research discussion confirms that the integration of local wisdom and prophetic values in the PAI module can create more contextual, relevant, and meaningful learning.  Conclusion. The development of a PAI module based on local wisdom and prophetic values is a strategic innovation in improving the quality of Islamic religious education that is adaptive to local culture while also oriented towards the comprehensive character development of students.

Abstract

Background. Intercultural empathy is an essential skill in globalized societies, yet language education often overlooks its emotional and cultural dimensions. Multicultural folklore offers a rich and underutilized resource for embedding cultural narratives in language curricula to foster deeper cross-cultural understanding. Purpose. This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of integrating multicultural folklore into language learning to enhance students' intercultural empathy across five core dimensions: openness, empathy, respect, engagement, and confidence. Method. Using a quasi-experimental design, two groups of junior high school students (N=60) were observed over six sessions. The experimental group received a folklore-integrated language curriculum, while the control group followed a conventional language program. Data were collected through pretests, posttests, and student reflective journals, analyzed using descriptive statistics and thematic coding. Results. The experimental group showed a significant increase in empathy scores, with a mean gain of 11 points compared to 2 points in the control group. Reflective writings revealed enhanced emotional engagement, especially in students exposed to diverse cultural narratives. The empathy dimension showing the highest improvement was respect, followed by emotional empathy. Conclusion. Multicultural folklore is a powerful pedagogical tool for fostering intercultural empathy in language education. The integration of narrative elements into linguistic instruction enhances not only comprehension but also emotional connection and cultural sensitivity. Future research should explore broader cultural contexts and assess long-term impact.

Abstract

Background. The increasing integration of technology into everyday life has transformed how individuals communicate, work, and engage with the world. While digital platforms offer efficiency and global connectivity, growing dependence on technology has been linked to a noticeable decline in face-to-face social interaction. This phenomenon raises important questions about what may be missing in the quality and depth of human relationships in technologically saturated environments. Purpose. This study aims to investigate the relationship between technological dependence and the decline of in-person social interaction, focusing on the underlying psychological, behavioral, and cultural factors that contribute to this shift. The research also explores how different age groups perceive and experience social connectivity in the digital age. Method. Using a mixed-methods approach, the study combines quantitative surveys involving 400 respondents from diverse demographic backgrounds with qualitative interviews of 20 individuals across three age groups: youth, adults, and seniors. Data analysis included statistical correlations and thematic coding to identify patterns in social behavior and emotional well-being. Results. Results reveal that increased screen time correlates with reduced quality of social engagement, particularly among younger participants. Many respondents reported feelings of isolation despite being digitally connected. The findings suggest that while technology facilitates communication, it may inadvertently replace more meaningful, emotionally resonant interactions. Conclusion. The study concludes that over-reliance on technology can diminish key aspects of human connection such as empathy, presence, and shared experience. Reintegrating intentional social practices into daily life may be essential to restoring balance between digital convenience and emotional fulfillment.
