Abstract

Background. Plastic pollution has become a defining environmental challenge for coastal communities in Southeast Asia, particularly in North Java, where rapid urbanization, industrial activities, and waste mismanagement exacerbate marine degradation. Local communities are not merely passive victims of this ecological crisis; they actively navigate, reinterpret, and resist the social and environmental impacts of plastic waste. Purpose. This study aims to investigate how a North Javanese coastal village adapts to and challenges marine pollution through cultural practices, social organization, and collective environmental action.   Method. An ethnographic research design was employed, integrating participant observation, in-depth interviews, household surveys, and environmental field notes to generate a multi-layered understanding of community responses. Results. The findings reveal three central patterns: first, adaptive behaviors emerge through pragmatic strategies such as waste repurposing and informal recycling networks; second, environmental degradation reshapes local cosmologies and cultural narratives surrounding cleanliness, morality, and human–nature relationships; third, forms of resistance manifest through community-led cleanups, youth environmental activism, and negotiations with local authorities and industries contributing to pollution. Conclusion. The study concludes that community adaptation and resistance are driven by intertwined ecological, economic, and cultural dynamics, illustrating that environmental crises are socially mediated phenomena requiring context-sensitive interventions.

Abstract

The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in personalized learning platforms has transformed hybrid education by enabling adaptive instruction, data-driven assessment, and individualized student support. However, this advancement has raised critical ethical concerns regarding student data privacy, transparency, and accountability. The unregulated collection, processing, and storage of learning data risk compromising students’ autonomy and confidentiality, particularly in hybrid schools where both digital and physical systems intersect. This study aims to develop an ethical framework that ensures responsible AI implementation in personalized learning environments while safeguarding student data integrity in Indonesian hybrid schools. A qualitative-descriptive research design was employed, involving document analysis, expert interviews, and focus group discussions with educators, AI developers, and policymakers. The research adopted a grounded theory approach to construct the framework, emphasizing ethical dimensions such as informed consent, algorithmic transparency, data minimization, and institutional accountability. Findings reveal that existing school policies often lack clarity in regulating third-party AI systems and data-sharing practices. The proposed ethical framework integrates three key components: governance principles, operational safeguards, and digital literacy strategies for teachers and students. The results suggest that adopting this framework can promote ethical awareness and responsible data stewardship, strengthening trust between institutions and learners. The study concludes that balancing innovation and ethical responsibility is essential to achieving equitable and secure AI-driven hybrid education.

Abstract

Background. Climate change constitutes a systemic global crisis that challenges the effectiveness and coherence of international environmental law. Successive global agreements have attempted to regulate greenhouse gas emissions and strengthen climate governance, yet significant gaps persist between normative commitments and actual environmental outcomes. Purpose. This study aims to analyze the legal implications of major global climate agreements and to evaluate how their design influences state responsibility, compliance mechanisms, and accountability structures within international environmental law.   Method. The research employs a qualitative doctrinal approach combined with comparative legal analysis of key instruments, including the UNFCCC, the Kyoto Protocol, and the Paris Agreement, supported by selected case-based judicial review. Results. Findings indicate a structural transition from centralized, binding emission targets toward a decentralized governance model grounded in nationally determined contributions, transparency frameworks, and judicial internalization. Binding obligations correlate with clearer compliance within regulated jurisdictions, while flexible mechanisms enhance participation but depend heavily on domestic implementation.   Conclusion. The study concludes that international climate agreements function as normative catalysts that reshape domestic legal systems and human rights discourse, yet their effectiveness remains contingent upon stronger accountability mechanisms and clearer legal drafting to ensure long-term environmental integrity.

Abstract

Digital inequities remain a critical barrier to language learning opportunities in remote and underserved regions, particularly where internet connectivity is unstable and infrastructure is limited. Low-bandwidth mobile learning solutions offer a promising alternative for supporting equitable access to instructional resources, yet empirical evidence on their effectiveness in real-world settings remains limited. This study aims to examine how a low-bandwidth mobile language learning initiative implemented in an Eastern Indonesian community supports learner engagement, accessibility, and linguistic development. A qualitative case study methodology was employed, involving 32 secondary school learners, three local teachers, and two community facilitators. Data were collected through mobile usage analytics, classroom observations, semi-structured interviews, and learner performance tasks adapted for low-data environments. The findings indicate that the initiative substantially improved access to learning materials, increased learner motivation, and supported incremental gains in vocabulary acquisition and basic communicative competence. Learners reported that offline-capable modules, audio-light exercises, and text-based microtasks reduced frustration associated with poor connectivity and enabled more consistent participation. Teachers highlighted the importance of culturally contextualized content and community support in sustaining engagement. The study concludes that low-bandwidth mobile learning can help bridge the digital divide when paired with context-sensitive pedagogical design and local capacity-building. Further research is recommended to explore scalability, long-term learning outcomes, and policy frameworks that could strengthen digital inclusion in remote regions.

Abstract

Increasing complexity of student psychological and behavioral issues in school environments necessitates highly competent counselors capable of delivering effective interventions. Counselor training programs are designed to enhance professional competencies, yet empirical evidence regarding their direct impact on intervention quality remains limited. This study aims to examine the effect of counselor training programs on the quality of interventions in schools. A quantitative quasi-experimental design with pretest-posttest and control group comparison was employed. Data were collected from school counselors using standardized intervention quality scales, competency assessments, and structured observation instruments. Statistical analysis was conducted using paired and independent sample t-tests. Results indicate significant improvements in intervention effectiveness, counselor competency, student behavioral outcomes, response time efficiency, and ethical compliance after training implementation (p < 0.01). Trained counselors demonstrated higher performance compared to untrained counterparts across all measured indicators. The findings confirm that structured training programs substantially enhance the quality of school counseling interventions. The study concludes that counselor professional development is a critical determinant of effective school-based mental health services and should be systematically integrated into educational policy and practice frameworks.
