Abstract

Parenting plays an important role in early childhood emotional development. This study aims to measure the effectiveness of parenting education on changes in parenting styles and its impact on children's emotions. Using a quantitative approach with a quasi-experiment one group pretest-posttest design, the intervention was given to 20 parents in Wage Village, Sidoarjo, in the form of short counseling lasting approximately 20 minutes. Data analysis was carried out by paired sample t-test. The results showed a significant decrease in authoritarian parenting and an increase in democratic parenting tendencies. In addition, there was a significant decrease in children's emotional, behavioral, and hyperactivity problems (p < 0.05). However, peer relationships and prosocial behavior did not show significant changes. Parenting education has been shown to be effective in improving parenting patterns and supporting early childhood emotional regulation.

Abstract

Parenting education programs are widely promoted as a means of improving parental practices and supporting early childhood development. However, evidence regarding their comprehensive impact on children’s emotional and social development remains mixed. This study aims to critically assess the effectiveness of a short-term parenting education intervention in modifying parenting patterns and influencing emotional development outcomes among children aged 1–5 years in Wage Village, Taman District, Sidoarjo Regency. A quasi-experimental design with a one-group pretest–posttest approach was employed. Fivety parents were recruited using purposive sampling. Participants completed a validated questionnaire measuring two dimensions of parenting (authoritative and authoritarian) and five indicators of children’s emotional development. The intervention consisted of a 20-minute counseling session on positive parenting strategies. Data were analyzed using paired sample t-tests with a significance level of α = 0.05. Findings revealed a statistically significant reduction in authoritarian parenting scores (p = 0.000) and improvements in certain child emotional indicators, specifically behavioral problems and hyperactivity (p < 0.005). However, no significant changes were observed in peer relationships (p = 0.398) or prosocial behavior (p = 0.185). While the intervention showed measurable short-term effects on reducing rigid parenting styles and some behavioral issues, its influence on children’s social competencies remained negligible. These results suggest that short-term parenting education may be effective for addressing immediate behavioral concerns but is insufficient for fostering comprehensive social and emotional growth. Factors such as peer interaction, school environment, and cultural context likely play a stronger role in shaping these aspects. Sustainable, multi-sector strategies integrating community engagement, school-based programs, and ongoing parental support are recommended. Parenting education should be implemented as part of a broader, long-term framework to ensure lasting improvements in both parental practices and children’s holistic development.

Abstract

Despite sustained policy interventions aimed at expanding access to higher education, significant disparities persist, particularly for marginalized students from historically disadvantaged communities. Additionally, while the overall enrollment figures have significantly improved, systemic inequities continue to hinder equitable participation. This paper critically examines key access barriers, such as financial insecurity, academic under-preparedness, ambiguity surrounding admission criteria, and administrative delays such as late document submission. The paper proposes a data-informed decision-making framework tailored to support prospective students, especially first-generation applicants in navigating the complex pathways of university, Technical and Vocational Education and Training college, and matric re-write applications. The framework leverages robust academic performance indicators to recommend optimal educational trajectories and integrates real-time guidance on funding opportunities. By streamlining procedural workflows and enhancing access to accurate, timely information, the tool seeks to empower students to make informed academic decisions. The framework further offers scalable, practical intervention to mitigate both institutional and socioeconomic barriers, contributing to a more inclusive and equitable access to higher education institutions in South Africa.

Abstract

Law No. 20 of 2013 concerning the national education system, article 3, requires character building from an early age. Hindu religious education is a subsystem of national education. In addition to encouraging spiritual intelligence, education also strives to produce students who are intellectually and emotionally intelligent. In its implementation, education for children with special needs at SLB Negeri 3 Denpasar is based on the values of Balinese local wisdom. If students can understand, internalise, and apply these values, it is certain that their personalities in both school and non-school settings will prioritise positive aspects rooted in Balinese local wisdom, such as Tri Hita Karana, Tat Twam Asi, and Mayama Braya. Therefore, the implementation of education for children with special needs (ABK) based on these local wisdom values of Bali in schools must be further prioritised to cultivate a generation of young people who are of high quality and noble character.

Abstract

In the long term, the Indonesian government has set a target to achieve an entrepreneurship ratio of 8% by 2045. This is certainly not an easy feat and requires the right approach to produce resilient entrepreneurs who are ready to compete in the digital and global era. Digitalization is not only about entering digital markets but also involves using smart factories and the Internet of Things (IoT). This community service activity was carried out with the aim of fostering the spirit and ability of digital marketing-based entrepreneurship among students of the Sharia Banking Study Program at STAIN Teungku Dirundeng Meulaboh. The activity was motivated by the low level of student awareness regarding entrepreneurial opportunities in the digital era, even though access to and the potential of digital technology are widely available. Through a participatory training approach, students were provided with fundamental knowledge about entrepreneurship, digital marketing strategies, the use of social media as a promotional tool, and an introduction to marketplaces as business platforms. The implementation methods include interactive lectures, case studies, and hands-on practice in creating content and digital marketing strategies. The results of the activity showed an increase in students' understanding and interest in digital entrepreneurship, as well as the emergence of initiatives to start online-based businesses individually or in groups. This activity is expected to serve as a starting point in shaping the entrepreneurial spirit of students who are adaptive to the development of the digital economy.
