In today’s increasingly interconnected world, promoting multicultural awareness has become essential, especially in educational settings. Language education offers a unique platform to foster this awareness, as language and culture are deeply intertwined. However, many language programs focus primarily on linguistic skills, overlooking the cultural dimensions that help students appreciate and navigate cultural diversity. This research aims to examine the role of language education in enhancing students’ understanding of multiculturalism, specifically through curricula that incorporate cultural perspectives and foster intercultural competence. A mixed-methods approach was used, combining surveys and interviews with 200 language learners and 50 educators across various educational institutions. Quantitative data from the surveys measured participants' perceptions of multicultural awareness, while qualitative data from the interviews provided deeper insights into how language education influences students' cultural understanding. Both methods were essential to capturing the complex relationship between language learning and multicultural awareness. The findings indicate that students exposed to culturally enriched language curricula showed a higher level of interest in cultural topics and a greater openness toward diverse perspectives. Educators observed that students became more engaged when cultural content was integrated into lessons, improving their overall language proficiency and intercultural skills.

This research delves into the complexities surrounding the integration of migrants in Medan's urban environment, highlighting the obstacles they face in social adaptation, their contributions to the local economy, and the rising socio-economic frictions. The study indicates that cultural disparities, resistance from local populations, and the prevalent urban individualism impede smooth social integration. Migrants often retreat into informal networks as a coping mechanism against exclusion, which, while providing safety, also reinforces societal divisions. Economically, migrants significantly impact the informal sector, driving small-scale entrepreneurial activities, yet their progress is hindered by challenges such as inadequate financial resources, legal recognition, and insufficient social safeguards. Additionally, the competition for low-paying jobs between migrants and locals fuels tension, further entrenching economic disparities. These issues are aggravated by a lack of inclusive urban planning and policies. The study advocates for proactive policy measures aimed at fostering cross-cultural engagement, enhancing migrant business sustainability, and ensuring equal access to resources, infrastructure, and social protection to ensure a more inclusive and equitable urban future.

This study analyzes the role of the media and local cultural values of Dalihan Na Tolu in building interfaith harmony between the Muslim and Christian communities in Tapanuli, North Sumatra. Through media content analysis methods, in-depth interviews, participant observations, and documentation, this study found that local media highlighted more interfaith cooperation and dialogue, which contributed positively to harmonious relations between communities. Dalihan Na Tolu values, such as somba marhula-hula (respect for elders) and elek marboru (helping each other), are applied consistently in social interactions, including in interfaith contexts. Community leaders and religious leaders play an important role in maintaining these values, while the challenges of social media that can trigger tensions are successfully managed through the strengthening of local cultural values. The conclusion of this study confirms that the synergy between responsible media, the application of cultural values, and effective leadership is very important in maintaining and strengthening interfaith harmony. This research provides valuable insights into how interfaith harmony can be maintained amid the challenges of modernization and globalization of information.

This study aims to analyze the role of local media in North Sumatra in creating a narrative of harmony between Muslims and Christians through the integration of Dalihan Na Tolu values, a local wisdom of the Batak community. The research method used is qualitative with data collection techniques through interviews, observations, and documentation analysis of local media. The results of the study show that the media has a significant influence in building a positive narrative that encourages cooperation between religious communities. News that highlights mutual cooperation, mutual respect, and togetherness in social activities is the central theme carried by the media to create a harmonious atmosphere. The values of Dalihan Na Tolu—consisting of Somba Marhula-hula (respecting the elders), Elek Marboru (helping the younger), and Manat Mardongan Tubu (being careful of others)—are used to strengthen the narrative of harmony carried. Although the media faces several obstacles, such as political pressure and limited resources, they still try to present neutral and constructive news. The positive response from the community and religious leaders shows that media reporting based on local values is effective in reducing tensions and increasing social solidarity. The conclusion of this study emphasizes that local media has a strategic role in building harmony between religious communities through the local wisdom approach, which can be used as a model to manage diversity in a multicultural society.

In the digital age, adolescents in DKI Jakarta Province, Indonesia, are experiencing a transformative shift in their lifestyles, characterized by the pervasive influence of digital technologies. This research aimed to comprehensively investigate the multifaceted impact of digital lifestyles on the health of adolescents, with a specific focus on social media abuse, physical inactivity, and psychological well-being. Through a mixed-methods approach encompassing surveys and interviews, data from 500 adolescents were collected and analyzed. The findings revealed that digital lifestyles have become integral to the lives of adolescents, with social media use averaging 3.5 hours per day. However, this extensive use has led to concerning issues, including cyberbullying experiences among 18% of participants and feelings of inadequacy in 42% due to social comparison. Additionally, physical inactivity was prevalent, with only 38% meeting the recommended daily physical activity guidelines. These behaviors were associated with various health implications, such as poor sleep quality and eye strain. Psychological well-being also bore the brunt of digital lifestyles, with 32% of adolescents reporting symptoms of anxiety and 28% experiencing symptoms of depression. Despite these challenges, self-esteem levels remained moderate to high for most participants.

Social media has become an important part of everyday life, especially for teenagers. Instagram, Facebook, Twitter and TikTok are not only communication platforms but also places where social identities are built and maintained. Previous studies have shown that social media can impact in various ways, both positive and negative, on teens' social relationships. This research was conducted with the aim of measuring how social media has changed the number and types of social interactions compared to conventional face-to-face interactions. Apart from that, it is also to see how personality, level of social media use, and family social support can influence teenagers' social media. The method used by researchers in researching the Influence of Social Media on Adolescent Social Relationships: A Longitudinal Study is to use a quantitative method. The data obtained by researchers was obtained from the results of distributing questionnaires. The distribution of questionnaires carried out by researchers was carried out online using Google From software. The results of data acquisition will also be tested again using the SPSS application. From the research results, it can be seen that this research is expected to be a basis for further research on the relationship between technology and social development in the digital era. Additionally, the results can help parents, educators, and policymakers make better plans to help teens use social media in healthier and more beneficial ways. From this research, researchers can conclude that longitudinal studies show that the impact of social media on teenagers' social relationships is very diverse and complex, so it requires a more considered approach, both the benefits and risks of the influence of social media on teenagers' social relationships.
