Abstract

Beliefs and pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) are two factors influencing teaching practice in the classroom. This research aims to describe the beliefs and PCK of the prospective mathematics teachers and the relationship between the two factors on the teaching practices in the mathematics classroom. Participant in this research includes a prospective teacher who has taken a micro teaching subject and has good communication skill. Data were collected through interview and video analysis on the teaching practice in the classroom. The data obtained were coded, simplified, presented, and triangulated for the credibility and concluded. The result of the research shows that the prospective teachers who hold a constructivist belief view mathematics as a dynamic knowledge which evolves and is regarded as the space of creation for humans. Their beliefs on the nature of mathematics support the belief in the teaching-learning process in mathematics classrooms. Furthermore, a good understanding of the prospective teachers have on the components of the PCK has been sufficient, which can be identified in every step of practical activities in the classroom. More elaboration on the relationship between the belief and PCK is presented in this research.

Abstract

Actors of MSMEs have an essential role in encouraging economic growth, especially MSMEs in creative economy. They have a role in labor absorption. The success of the MSMEs business is not only limited to understanding the external factor, but the most important thing is also from the internal factor. Entrepreneurial motivation and entrepreneurial competence are internal factors that MSMEs need to have. These internal factors are the main points that must be understood as internal strengths to achieve business success. This study aimed to determine and explain the effect of entrepreneurial motivation on entrepreneurial competence and its impact on business success. The type of research used was descriptive quantitative with 120 respondents. Data is collected by delivering questionnaires through Google Form to MSME owners, utilizing a Likert scale. Researchers utilized the SmartPLS 3 application and set a significance level of 0.05 for data analysis. The research findings indicate that entrepreneurial motivation positively and significantly influences entrepreneurial competence. However, entrepreneurial motivation does not significantly impact business success. On the other hand, entrepreneurial competence positively and significantly affects business success. Additionally, entrepreneurial motivation positively and significantly contributes to business success through entrepreneurial competence.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze whether the implementation of reduction (deduction) of tax incentives has or does not have a reaction (influence) on the financial ratio (ROE) of shares of IDX issuers LQ45 Index during the COVID-19 outbreak in 2022. The study employs a hypothesis testing approach with classical assumption tests and simple regression analysis, focusing on secondary data from the LQ45 index during the 2022 Covid-19 outbreak. It examined a population of 45, using 36 samples that met specific criteria. A simple linear analysis model was used to investigate the impact, if any, of tax incentive reductions on the financial ratio (ROE) of the issuers' stocks. This study, which uses simple regression analysis, reveals that the implementation of tax incentive reductions made by the Indonesian government does not react (influence) on the financial ratio (ROE) of IDX-listed stocks in the LQ45 Index during the COVID-19 outbreak in 2022. The study suggests that the Indonesian government's tax incentive reductions may not impact the financial ratios (ROE) of companies listed on the IDX, particularly in the LQ45 Index during the Covid-19 outbreak in 2022. This lack of impact is attributed to companies not utilizing these incentives, possibly due to insufficient awareness of their benefits and challenging criteria set by the government for obtaining these incentives. Despite common beliefs that tax incentives can influence financial performance, this study indicates they might not significantly affect the financial ratios of these companies. The real implications is research indicates that the Indonesian government's reduction of tax incentives did not elicit a response in the financial ratio (ROE) of shares issued by LQ45 Index companies on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the Covid-19 outbreak in 2022. This suggests that the implementation of tax incentive cuts by the Indonesian government had no impact on the financial ratio (ROE) of LQ45 issuer shares during the Covid-19 outbreak in 2022, based on a sample size of 36.

Abstract

This study examines the effectiveness of implementing a design thinking approach in differential learning to enhance students’ critical thinking skills. A quasi-experimental method with a pretest–posttest control group design was employed. The participants consisted of 60 undergraduate students enrolled in a Differential Calculus course, who were assigned to an experimental group (n = 30) receiving design thinking-based instruction and a control group (n = 30) receiving conventional instruction. The research instrument was an essay-based critical thinking test developed according to five indicators: interpretation, analysis, evaluation, inference, and explanation. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and an independent samples t-test. The findings revealed a statistically significant difference in critical thinking skills between the experimental group (M = 83.67) and the control group (M = 68.43), with p < 0.001. The experimental group achieved an N-Gain score of 0.64, categorized as moderate to high and substantially higher than the control group’s N-Gain of 0.32. Furthermore, Cohen’s effect size was 2.41, indicating a very large effect. Improvements were observed across all critical thinking indicators, with the analysis indicator demonstrating the greatest gain (a mean difference of 16.67 points). In conclusion, design thinking-based learning is effective in enhancing students’ critical thinking skills in differential calculus and represents a promising alternative instructional approach for university-level mathematics education.

Abstract

The assistance program for obtaining a Business Identification Number (NIB) was conducted to assist Rera Nastar, a pastry business owned by Mrs. Ulfatun Ni'mah, which has been established since 2019 in Ental Sewu Village, Buduran, Sidoarjo. This assistance was motivated by the low understanding of MSMEs regarding the function and procedures for submitting a NIB through the OSS-RBA system. The assistance process was carried out through several stages, namely planning, preparation, and direct registration practice. However, there were obstacles when filling out the AMDAL (Environmental Impact Assessment) which could not be submitted, so the registration had to be repeated several times. After conducting several evaluations and data adjustments, Rera Nastar's NIB was finally successfully issued on November 27, 2025. The assistance results showed an increase in business understanding, as well as the successful completion of the legality process. This activity provided significant benefits in raising awareness about business legality and preparing MSMEs to officially develop their businesses.
