Abstract

Bullying in elementary schools continues to be a significant concern, negatively impacting students' emotional well-being, social interactions, and academic engagement. In response, many schools in Indonesia have adopted the Child-Friendly School (CFS) program as a strategic initiative to foster a safe and inclusive learning environment. SDN Pleburan 01 Semarang is one such school dedicated to strengthening bullying prevention through effective child-friendly school management strategies. This study aims to analyze the approaches employed by SDN Pleburan 01 in managing a child-friendly school to prevent and address bullying. A qualitative research design was employed, with data collected through interviews, observations, and document analysis involving the principal, teachers, students, and the CFS team. The findings indicate that the school has implemented comprehensive bullying prevention measures, including needs-based planning, integration of character-building activities, active involvement of stakeholders, and the use of technology such as the Si Galing application for anonymous reporting. The study also found a significant reduction in bullying incidents and improvements in students' sense of safety, emotional well-being, and participation in school activities. In conclusion, the research highlights that successful child-friendly school management requires thorough planning, collaborative execution, and continuous evaluation to ensure sustainable bullying prevention efforts in elementary schools.

Abstract

Social media has become one of the main sources of information for students in learning about education and careers. This study aims to determine the effect of social media use on the career choices of 11th grade students at Sultan Agung 01 Islamic High School in Semarang. This study uses a quantitative approach with a correlational design. The sample consisted of 152 students selected through simple random sampling. The instruments used were a social media usage scale and a career choice scale. Data analysis used a simple linear regression test with the help of SPSS version 22. The results showed a significant negative influence between social media usage and students' career choices, with a correlation coefficient of -0.465 and a significance of 0.000. The regression equation obtained, Y = 175.743 – 1.016X, shows that an increase in social media use is associated with a decrease in the accuracy of career choice, which is likely influenced by the dominance of non-educational content. These findings indicate that the higher the use of social media, the lower the accuracy of students' career choices. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen digital literacy and the role of guidance and counseling services by integrating social media as a means of targeted and educational career guidance, rather than limiting its use.
