Abstract

The educational demands of the 21st century emphasize the importance of equipping learners with essential skills such as critical thinking and self-efficacy. Critical thinking skills (CTS) enable learners to analyze, evaluate and solve problems logically. Self-efficacy reflects learners' belief in their ability to face learning challenges. This study aims to analyze the impact of project-based learning (PjBL) model implementation towards learners' CTS and self-efficacy on the material of classification of living things, and explore the relationship between self-efficacy and CTS. The method used in this research is quasi-experiment with pretest-posttest non-equivalent control group design. Data collection was carried out using a CTS test instrument with indicators developed by Ennis, and a self-efficacy questionnaire developed by May. Data analysis used independent sample t-test and pearson product moment with a significant level of = 0.05. The results of the research on CTS parameters showed a sig value. 0.000 0.05. The results of research on self-efficacy parameters show in the moderate category. The results of research on the relationship between self-efficacy and CTS show a sig value. 0.021 0.05. The data analysis can be concluded that there is an effect of applying the PjBL model on improving students' CTS. Self-efficacy of students in the experimental class after the intervention was in the moderate category. A low and positive relationship exists between self-efficacy and CTS of students

Abstract

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs11190870 near the ladybird homeobox 1 (LBX1) gene as being associated with the susceptibility and severity of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS). However, no such genetic studies have been conducted in the Indonesian population. The aim of this study was to investigate the genetic profile of AIS patients in the Acehnese population, with a focus on LBX1 rs11190870, and to assess its association with disease severity. A total of 30 female AIS patients were included. Genetic analysis was performed to determine the rs11190870 genotype in each subject. The association between rs11190870 and curve progression, measured by Cobb angle, was analyzed using the Mann–Whitney U test. The T allele was found to be more prevalent (73.3%), with the TC genotype being the most common (53.3%). A significant association was observed between LBX1 rs11190870 and curve progression, where patients with the TT genotype exhibited a larger Cobb angle compared to those with TC or CC genotypes (p=0.01). This is the first study to characterize the genetic profile of AIS and its association with curve severity in the Acehnese population. These findings suggest that LBX1 rs11190870 may act as a disease modifier in AIS. Further studies with larger sample sizes are warranted to confirm the role of LBX1 rs11190870 in AIS susceptibility and severity in the Indonesian population.

Abstract

In the digital age, artificial intelligence (AI) has become a major force in shaping user experiences and social interactions in cyberspace. AI algorithms used in various digital platforms adjust content based on individual preferences, which indirectly shapes social identities and social norms within online communities. This research aims to examine how AI affects user interaction patterns, forms social identities, and strengthens or weakens social dynamics through mechanisms such as echo chambers and filter bubbles. This study uses a qualitative approach with an exploratory method, which involves semi-structured interviews with 20-30 participants from various backgrounds, as well as a quantitative survey of 300-500 respondents. The results show that AI plays a dual role in shaping social attachment, where 78% of respondents feel more connected to their digital community, but at the same time experience limited access to different perspectives due to algorithm personalization. Other findings suggest that AI algorithms contribute to increased social polarization by reinforcing boundaries between groups that have different views. In conclusion, while AI has the potential to create a more inclusive digital space, current algorithm implementations are more focused on extreme personalization, which narrows the openness to other perspectives. Therefore, more inclusive regulations and digital literacy education are needed so that users can be more critical of the information consumed and not be trapped in a narrow information cycle.

Abstract

This study aims to explore how the local wisdom of the Bugis-Makassar community can be integrated into sustainable public space management in Makassar. Using Lefebvre’s theory of the Production of Space, Harvey’s Right to the City, and the concept of cultural sustainability, the research positions public space as a social and political construct shaped by power relations and cultural meaning. The study adopts a qualitative ethnographic approach, with data collected through participant observation, in-depth interviews, and visual documentation in key public spaces including Losari Beach, Karebosi Field, and community-driven alleyways (Lorong Wisata). Findings reveal that urban modernization tends to marginalize local wisdom, exacerbating inequality and undermining social cohesion. However, grassroots initiatives rooted in cultural values such as siri’ na pacce and gotong royong show strong potential for inclusive and participatory revitalization. These findings contribute to spatial theory by integrating cultural dimensions into the concept of spatial production and offer practical strategies for equitable and culturally grounded urban planning.

Abstract

Urban fringe areas often become areas of urban expansion characterized by unequal access to public facilities, one of which is education. This research aims to understand the dynamics of space production in spatial planning in Makassar that contribute to the absence of schools in urban fringe areas. Using a critical ethnographic approach, this research combines semi-structured interviews, participatory observation, and spatial document analysis. Results show that the dominance of economic interests and investment logic in spatial planning leads to the marginalization of basic social needs such as education. Residents reacted through resistance strategies such as informal classes and community solidarity, but still faced structural limitations. This research recommends the need for spatial planning that is responsive, inclusive and oriented towards social justice.ABSTRAKWilayah urban fringe kerap menjadi area ekspansi perkotaan yang diwarnai oleh ketimpangan akses terhadap fasilitas publik, salah satunya adalah pendidikan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memahami dinamika produksi ruang dalam perencanaan tata ruang di Makassar yang berkontribusi terhadap absennya sekolah di wilayah urban fringe. Dengan menggunakan pendekatan etnografi kritis, penelitian ini menggabungkan wawancara semi-terstruktur, observasi partisipatif, dan analisis dokumen tata ruang. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa dominasi kepentingan ekonomi dan logika investasi dalam perencanaan ruang menyebabkan terpinggirkannya kebutuhan sosial dasar seperti pendidikan. Warga bereaksi melalui strategi resistensi seperti kelas informal dan solidaritas komunitas, namun tetap menghadapi keterbatasan struktural. Penelitian ini merekomendasikan perlunya perencanaan ruang yang responsif, inklusif, dan berorientasi pada keadilan sosial.

Abstract

This research explores how schools in peri-urban areas reflect structural and symbolic inequalities in the Indonesian education system. The aim of this research is to understand how educational spaces are produced, interpreted and negotiated by school communities. Using a qualitative educational ethnography approach, this study collected data through in-depth interviews, participatory observation and visual documentation in two secondary schools on the outskirts of Makassar City. The research sample included teachers, students, school staff and parents, who were selected through purposive and snowball sampling techniques. This study uses space theory (Lefebvre), social theory (Bourdieu), and infrapolitics (Scott) to analyze how marginalized communities live and resist marginalization in neglected educational spaces. Field results show that peripheral schools do not only function as places of learning, but also as social arenas filled with resistance, aspirations and symbolic negotiations. Key findings show that spatial injustice and symbolic violence go hand in hand with grassroots resilience. The study concludes that education cannot be separated from the politics of space, and that urban education policies should consider equity in both physical infrastructure and community participation. This research contributes to urban critical education studies through grounded ethnographic narratives of forgotten school communities.ABSTRAKPenelitian ini mengeksplorasi bagaimana sekolah-sekolah di wilayah pinggiran kota mencerminkan ketimpangan struktural dan simbolik dalam sistem pendidikan Indonesia. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk memahami bagaimana ruang pendidikan diproduksi, dimaknai, dan dinegosiasikan oleh komunitas sekolah. Dengan menggunakan pendekatan etnografi pendidikan kualitatif, penelitian ini mengumpulkan data melalui wawancara mendalam, observasi partisipatif, dan dokumentasi visual di dua sekolah menengah di pinggiran Kota Makassar. Sampel penelitian mencakup guru, siswa, staf sekolah, dan orang tua, yang dipilih melalui teknik purposive dan snowball sampling. Studi ini menggunakan teori ruang (Lefebvre), teori sosial (Bourdieu), dan infrapolitik (Scott) untuk menganalisis bagaimana komunitas marjinal menghidupi dan melawan keterpinggiran dalam ruang pendidikan yang terabaikan. Hasil lapangan menunjukkan bahwa sekolah-sekolah pinggiran tidak hanya berfungsi sebagai tempat belajar, tetapi juga sebagai arena sosial yang dipenuhi perlawanan, aspirasi, dan negosiasi simbolik. Temuan utama menunjukkan bahwa ketidakadilan spasial dan kekerasan simbolik berjalan berdampingan dengan ketangguhan akar rumput. Studi ini menyimpulkan bahwa pendidikan tidak dapat dipisahkan dari politik ruang, dan bahwa kebijakan pendidikan perkotaan harus mempertimbangkan keadilan baik dalam infrastruktur fisik maupun partisipasi komunitas. Penelitian ini memberikan kontribusi pada kajian pendidikan kritis perkotaan melalui narasi etnografis yang membumi tentang komunitas sekolah yang terlupakan.

Abstract

The transformation of transportation infrastructure in Makassar—from toll roads and BRT corridors to digital mobility—has significantly altered the city's landscape. However, migrant groups such as online motorcycle taxi drivers, port workers, and street vendors face physical, symbolic, and digital exclusion. This study employs urban ethnography, participatory observation, and route tracing with 32 resource persons. The analysis was carried out through thematic coding, grounded theory, and cross-method triangulation. The results show that top-down built infrastructure often poses mobility barriers, but migrants are not passive: they take alternative routes, build community solidarity, and make tactical use of technology. This practice shapes the infrapolitics of mobility while producing urban space from below. This study enriches the theories of Lefebvre (space production), Urry (the mobility turn), Giddens (structuration), and Gandy (the political ecology of infrastructure), and affirms the importance of the spatial ethnography approach in understanding cities in the global South.
