Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of the convenience of non-cash transactions offered by mobile payment applications on the wasteful behavior of the people of Makassar city. Along with the increasing use of electronic money, this has changed the style of transactions in society. The new media referred to in this study is a mobile payment application. Judging from the development of the transaction model, people tend to choose the practical and easy one. The result of media technology has also contributed to changing the behavior patterns of new media consumption. The payment model has been transformed from cash to non-cash or digital, which the public can easily do. The ease of this transaction led to a change in consumption patterns to meet excessive needs, which led to a wasteful nature. By using a descriptive quantitative approach, researchers distributed questionnaires to 100 research samples. The results of processing the questionnaire data into primary and secondary data in this study are relevant literature studies. The results showed an influence between the ease of transactions using mobile payments and the wasteful behavior of the people of Makassar city.

Abstract

The Mappalili ritual, held before planting, is believed to help maintain ecological balance. While past studies have emphasized its cultural significance, the research shifts the focus toward environmental conservation and the role of the Bissu as communicators of environmental values through tradition. The research explored relationship between the concept of Pandora’s box and Mappalili within the framework of environmental rhetoric and cultural communication in the Bugis community, specifically in Segeri District, Pangkajene and Kepulauan Regency, South Sulawesi. The research was guided by three indicators: community awareness and participation, coordination and communication, and cultural values, using environmental rhetoric analysis. The qualitative approach included in-depth interviews with Bissu leaders and participant observation during Mappalili. The data were analyzed through environmental rhetoric theory to capture how symbolism and cultural practices contributed to ecological balance. Findings reveal that Mappalili serves as an effective tool for environmental communication, with the ritual’s symbols and values fostering harmony between humans and nature. The Bissu, as the leader, imparts ecological principles to the community, including natural farming practices that preserve soil health and minimize ecosystem harm. Disruptions or improper performance of the ritual potentially lead to negative environmental impacts, akin to opening a Pandora’s box that destabilizes the ecosystem. The research underscores the significance of preserving Mappalili as an essential environmental communication strategy, demonstrating that cultural continuity supports ecosystem sustainability. Additionally, the enduring role of the Bissu as cultural symbols in South Sulawesi reflects a deeply rooted environmental knowledge integral to this tradition.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the application of Computer-Mediated Communication in the Recognition of Past Learning (RPL) Program for Bachelor and Master of Communication Science at Fajar University. By using interpretive qualitative methods, the informants in this study were lecturers in undergraduate and master programs. The data collection techniques were carried out by in-depth interviews and also using snowball sampling techniques, non-participant observation and document studies. The results show that interactivity in online learning is highly dependent on effective communication between lecturers and students. Lecturers use quizzes and discussions to ensure the material is conveyed clearly, and encourage students to share relevant work experiences. Active participation in discussions, presentations and assignments gives students better grades, incentivizing engagement. Technologies such as Zoom and WhatsApp mediate communication, with Zoom for face-to-face lectures and WhatsApp for informal discussions. A Learning Management System (LMS) is also used to upload materials and schedules. Additional training for lecturers and technology support for students are necessary for successful online learning.

Abstract

This study investigates the role of the Bissu, a traditional Bugis priestly figure, as an environmental communicator through the Mappalili ritual in Segeri, South Sulawesi. The problem addressed is the declining ecological relevance of traditional rituals amidst rapid modernization and technological changes in agriculture. The objective is to analyze how Bissu communicate environmental values through symbolic practices and assess their effectiveness using environmental leadership indicators: ecological vision, motivating others, exemplary leadership, effective communication, and goal orientation. A qualitative case study approach was employed, involving participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and document analysis. The findings reveal that while the Bissu maintain a strong cultural and symbolic presence in ritual leadership, their influence on practical agricultural and environmental practices has significantly diminished. Their role has shifted from active agents in environmental management to ceremonial figures. Although they promote traditional ecological wisdom, modern agricultural practices and the lack of institutional collaboration limit their communicative effectiveness. This research implies the need to integrate indigenous knowledge with contemporary environmental strategies through policy dialogue and community engagement to preserve cultural identity and promote sustainable development.
