Abstract

Motivational strategies play a crucial role in enhancing student learning outcomes in higher education. As students face increasing academic challenges, effective motivational techniques can foster engagement, persistence, and academic success. However, there is a need for research that identifies and evaluates which motivational strategies are most effective in diverse educational contexts. This study aims to examine the role of various motivational strategies in improving student learning outcomes in higher education. The research seeks to identify strategies that foster intrinsic motivation, enhance student engagement, and ultimately contribute to academic achievement. A mixed-methods approach was used, combining quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews with students and faculty from a range of disciplines. The survey assessed the impact of various motivational strategies, including goal setting, feedback, and active learning techniques, on student performance. Interviews provided deeper insights into how students and instructors perceive and implement these strategies. The findings indicate that goal setting, constructive feedback, and active learning strategies significantly enhance student engagement and performance. Students who reported receiving personalized feedback and setting clear academic goals exhibited higher levels of motivation and academic success. Motivational strategies are essential for improving student learning outcomes in higher education.

Abstract

The global push toward a Circular Economy (CE) demands leveraging regenerative resources, making Non-Timber Forest Products (NTFPs) critical assets for a sustainable bio-economy. This study addresses the profound structural inefficiency within current NTFP value chains, which operate on a linear model, resulting in significant material waste and limiting local economic value. The core research objective was to rigorously assess material efficiency and identify the governance barriers preventing the transition to zero-waste systems, thereby developing a prescriptive NTFP-Circular Economy (NTFP-CE) Model. The methodology employed a comparative process mapping design, integrating Mass Balance Analysis across twelve diverse processing units with qualitative interviews focused on institutional failure and technology adoption. Findings demonstrate a critically low average Conversion Efficiency Rate (CER) of 61%, revealing that 39% of raw forest biomass is discarded as unused residue. This inefficiency is not primarily technological, but fundamentally institutional, driven by the absence of formal Residue Governance Standards and Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) protection. These institutional failures collectively block the necessary industrial investment in zero-waste bio-refinery systems. The study concludes that the NTFP-CE Model provides the essential, evidence-based framework for policy intervention, arguing that standardized residue management and policy-driven risk-sharing are vital to transform discarded residues into high-value industrial feedstocks, ensuring sustainable and equitable forest bio-economy development.

Abstract

Open Government Data (OGD) has gained significant attention as a tool for promoting transparency, enhancing public trust, and improving bureaucratic accountability. However, the impact of OGD on these factors, particularly in emerging economies, remains underexplored. This research investigates the ethical implications and effectiveness of OGD in fostering trust and accountability within the public sector in emerging economies. The primary objective is to evaluate how OGD influences public trust in government and the accountability of bureaucratic systems. A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews across five emerging economies. The findings suggest that while OGD can improve public trust and bureaucratic accountability, its effectiveness is highly contingent on the strength of the institutional context. Countries with stronger democratic frameworks and institutional capacity experienced greater improvements in trust and accountability, while weaker institutions limited OGD’s impact. The study concludes that OGD alone does not automatically lead to increased transparency; instead, institutional readiness and capacity play critical roles in determining its success. This research contributes to the literature by offering a nuanced understanding of OGD’s role in enhancing governance in emerging economies, highlighting both its potential and its limitations.

Abstract

Traditional Zakat management often faces a significant institutional trust deficit, hindering its potential for poverty alleviation. The digitalization of Zakat, as exemplified by Indonesia’s BAZNAS, presents a strategic solution, yet its empirical impact on transparency and social outcomes is under-evaluated. This research aims to empirically evaluate the impact of BAZNAS’s digitalization strategy on enhancing institutional transparency, rebuilding stakeholder trust, and improving the effectiveness of poverty alleviation programs. A mixed-methods explanatory sequential case study of BAZNAS was employed. The study analyzed longitudinal institutional data (2018-2024), structured surveys (n=1000 muzakki and mustahik), and 55 semi-structured stakeholder interviews. Findings reveal a profound positive impact: Zakat collection increased by 153.1% and fund distribution time decreased by 72.3%. ‘Perceived Transparency’ (? = .55, p < .001) was confirmed as the strongest predictor of ‘Institutional Trust’. A statistically significant reduction in mustahik poverty scores was also observed (p < .001). However, a critical ‘Digital Access Gap’ affecting 22% of recipients was identified. Digitalization is empirically validated as a powerful tool for resolving the institutional trust deficit and enhancing Zakat’s effectiveness in poverty reduction. This success is, however, contingent upon developing hybrid strategies to address the digital divide and ensure inclusivity.

Abstract

This study stems from the ongoing social changes and transformations in Islamic family law, which necessitate normative reform to align with the principles of maqashid al-sharia. The objective of this study is to examine the role of the concept of maqashid al-sharia as a foundation for the reconstruction of Islamic family law, while also formulating a direction for legal development that is more adaptive to the needs of modern society. This study employs a qualitative method with a juridical-normative approach through a literature review encompassing fiqh literature, statutory regulations, and the thoughts of contemporary scholars, which are subsequently analyzed descriptively and analytically. The research findings indicate that the reconstruction of Islamic family law based on maqashid syariah is capable of strengthening the aspect of public interest by prioritizing the protection of religion, life, intellect, lineage, and property, thereby making family law more flexible and responsive to social dynamics without abandoning the fundamental principles of Sharia. In the discussion, the maqashid syariah approach is viewed as providing a broader scope for ijtihad in the process of renewing Islamic family law, particularly regarding marriage, divorce, and women’s rights, while maintaining a balance between normative texts and evolving social realities. The conclusion of this study confirms that the reconstruction of Islamic family law based on the maqashid al-sharia is an urgent necessity for the realization of a legal system that is more just, humane, and relevant to the demands of the times.

Abstract

Millennials increasingly use digital financial services, yet technological familiarity does not always ensure adequate understanding of Sharia principles, contractual structures, or financial risks. This study aimed to examine the influence of Islamic economic education on Sharia financial literacy and to identify the mediating roles of financial self-efficacy and Sharia financial attitudes. An explanatory sequential mixed-methods design was employed, combining survey data from 472 Muslim millennials, structural equation modeling, objective literacy testing, and interviews with 36 participants representing different literacy levels. The results showed that Islamic economic education significantly influenced Sharia financial literacy directly and indirectly through financial self-efficacy and Sharia financial attitudes. Practical application, case-based learning, contract analysis, and product comparison produced stronger outcomes than theoretical exposure alone. Formal academic education generated the highest conceptual scores, while professional training demonstrated stronger effects on product evaluation and financial behavior. Sharia financial literacy also significantly predicted Sharia-compliant financial behavior, although access to suitable products and digital information quality affected the consistency of application. The study concludes that effective Islamic economic education should integrate religious principles, financial calculation, contractual analysis, digital competence, and realistic decision-making practice to strengthen informed, ethical, and responsible financial behavior among millennials in increasingly complex financial markets and environments.

Abstract

Social media has transformed written communication in Indonesia, raising concerns about the transfer of informal digital language into academic contexts. This study aimed to examine the influence of social media language trends on Indonesian formal writing competence and assess the moderating role of register awareness. A quantitative explanatory correlational design was employed with 284 students using questionnaires, a register-awareness scale, a standardized formal writing task, linguistic-error coding, and moderation analysis. The findings showed that frequent use of nonstandard spelling, punctuation omission, abbreviations, and informal lexical forms was negatively associated with formal writing competence, particularly orthographic accuracy and register appropriateness. Daily social media duration alone did not significantly predict writing performance after literacy-related variables were controlled. Register awareness emerged as a positive predictor and weakened the negative relationship between informal digital-language use and formal writing outcomes. Students with strong contextual language awareness maintained high formal writing performance despite participation in informal digital communication. The study concludes that social media language does not inherently weaken formal writing competence. Its influence depends on whether users can distinguish and manage linguistic registers appropriately. Strengthening register awareness, editing skills, and contextual language control offers a more productive educational response than simply restricting digital language use.
