Abstract

Access to quality education in remote and rural areas remains a global challenge due to geographical isolation, lack of infrastructure, and limited resources. Mobile learning (m-learning) has emerged as a potential solution to bridge this gap, offering flexible and accessible education through mobile devices. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of mobile learning in remote and rural areas, focusing on its impact on student engagement, learning outcomes, and the challenges associated with its implementation. A mixed-methods research design was employed, combining quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews with students and teachers from rural schools that have adopted mobile learning platforms. The study involved 250 students and 50 teachers across three regions. Quantitative data was analyzed to assess learning outcomes, while qualitative data provided insights into the user experience and challenges faced in implementing m-learning. The findings reveal that mobile learning significantly improves student engagement, with 70% of students reporting increased motivation to learn due to the flexibility and accessibility of m-learning. However, technical challenges such as poor internet connectivity and limited access to devices were noted as barriers to full adoption. Despite these challenges, 65% of teachers reported positive changes in student performance and participation. In conclusion, mobile learning offers a promising solution for enhancing education in remote and rural areas. While it significantly improves engagement and learning outcomes, addressing the technical and infrastructural barriers is crucial for maximizing its potential. The study suggests that with proper investment in infrastructure, m-learning can be an effective tool for bridging educational disparities in underserved regions.

Abstract

Background: Government policies play a significant role in shaping the investment climate and, consequently, in driving economic growth. Policies aimed at stimulating investments—such as fiscal incentives, tax policies, and infrastructure development—can significantly influence the flow of capital into various sectors, fostering economic activity and job creation. Conversely, restrictive policies or regulatory inefficiencies can stifle investment and hinder economic development. Understanding the implications of these policies is crucial for policymakers and businesses seeking to maximize economic growth potential. Objective: This study aims to evaluate the impact of government policies on investment decisions and their subsequent effect on economic growth. The research seeks to identify the key policy factors that drive or hinder investment flows and assess their broader implications for long-term economic performance. Method: A mixed-methods approach was employed, utilizing quantitative data analysis of economic indicators and investment flows from government reports, along with qualitative interviews from business leaders and policymakers. The study examines a range of countries with varying policy environments to identify common trends and impacts. Results: The findings suggest that pro-investment policies significantly boost both domestic and foreign investment, leading to higher economic growth rates. In contrast, restrictive policies and regulatory uncertainties were found to negatively impact economic performance. Conclusion: The study concludes that effective government policies are essential for fostering investment and driving sustainable economic growth. Policymakers should prioritize creating stable, investment-friendly environments to achieve long-term economic benefits.

Abstract

Background: Non-governmental organizations (NGOs) play a pivotal role in the realm of law enforcement and human rights. In recent decades, their influence has expanded significantly, especially in areas where government action is either insufficient or absent. NGOs often bridge gaps in legal and human rights protection by advocating for vulnerable populations, monitoring abuses, and holding governments accountable. Their contributions in law enforcement vary, from providing legal assistance to victims of human rights violations to actively participating in the policy-making process. Objective: This study aims to evaluate the role of NGOs in law enforcement and human rights, with a particular focus on their contributions to legal reforms, advocacy for victims, and international collaborations. The research explores how NGOs influence law enforcement mechanisms and contribute to the advancement of human rights protections across different regions. Method: A qualitative research design was employed, utilizing case studies, interviews with NGO leaders, legal experts, and human rights advocates, and document analysis of reports and legal frameworks where NGOs have had significant influence. Results: The study found that NGOs significantly impact human rights law enforcement, especially in regions with weak legal frameworks. They provide essential resources for victims, influence policy changes, and sometimes fill gaps left by state institutions. However, challenges such as limited funding and political resistance affect their effectiveness. Conclusion: NGOs are indispensable in promoting human rights and enforcing laws in under-served regions. Their role should be enhanced through stronger partnerships with governments and international organizations.

Abstract

Teacher creativity plays a critical role in enhancing the quality of education, particularly in elementary schools. However, limited studies have explored how teachers develop innovative learning models tailored to students’ needs in the Indonesian context. This study aims to investigate the strategies employed by teachers to design project-based learning (PBL) models and assess their impact on students’ engagement and critical thinking skills. Employing a qualitative research method, data were collected through interviews, classroom observations, and document analysis involving 15 elementary school teachers across three regions in Indonesia. The findings reveal that teachers utilized diverse approaches, such as integrating local culture, leveraging digital tools, and fostering collaborative learning, to enrich PBL designs. Additionally, students exhibited increased motivation and improved problem-solving abilities when engaging in these models. However, challenges such as limited resources and training opportunities hindered optimal implementation. In conclusion, this study highlights the potential of teacher creativity in shaping effective PBL models and underscores the importance of institutional support for professional development. Future research should focus on scaling successful practices and addressing existing barriers.
