Abstract

Social studies (IPS) learning in remote elementary schools remains constrained by limited access, inadequate infrastructure, and an exam-oriented assessment culture, often resulting in surface-level understanding. Concurrently, curricular orientations promoted by the Kementerian Pendidikan, Kebudayaan, Riset, dan Teknologi Republik Indonesia through the Merdeka Curriculum emphasize contextual social literacy and the development of students’ civic-cultural identity. In this study, identity is defined as the integration of local (inland) cultural belonging and civic awareness, positioning IPS as a medium for socially situated meaning-making and participatory citizenship. This study investigates the practices and meanings of deep learning in IPS classrooms in Manis Mata District, West Kalimantan. Deep learning is operationalized as meaningful conceptual engagement, critical reflection on social realities, and the integration of students’ lived experiences into knowledge construction. Employing a qualitative case-study design, the research was conducted in three remote elementary schools. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, classroom observations, and document analysis involving 6 teachers, 27 upper-grade students, and 3 school leaders. Participants were purposively selected, and data were analyzed thematically. Findings indicate that deep learning becomes meaningful when instruction is rooted in local contexts, although its implementation is shaped by structural constraints. IPS classrooms also function as spaces for civic-cultural identity formation and social awareness, including emotional ambivalence when marginal experiences are expressed. This study refines social constructivist perspectives by highlighting the role of local epistemologies in shaping deep learning within marginalized settings, and suggests the need for contextual teacher development, adaptive assessment, and locally grounded curricula.

Abstract

Sumenep Regency comprises 126 islands across 19 mainland and 8 maritime districts, resulting in high dependence on sea transportation and increased maritime safety risks. Between 2020 and 2023, official records show 20–30 maritime accidents annually, including ten major incidents causing nearly 100 fatalities. These conditions expose limitations in conventional governance approaches. In response, the local government implemented an agile governance framework through the Maritime Safety System (SiKaPal). Using a qualitative descriptive method based on in-depth interviews and thematic analysis, this study finds that agile governance improved emergency responsiveness, coordination, resource efficiency, and institutional adaptability in maritime safety management. This study adopts a qualitative descriptive approach to capture in-depth insights into the implementation of agile governance in maritime safety management. Data were collected through semi-structured, in-depth interviews with 20 informants, comprising policymakers, policy implementers, supervisory officials, and community members as policy beneficiaries. The data were analyzed using thematic analysis, focusing on patterns related to governance adaptability, institutional coordination, resource efficiency, and emergency responsiveness. The findings reveal that the integration of agile governance within SiKaPal has produced several significant outcomes. First, budget utilization became more efficient due to flexible planning and iterative evaluation mechanisms. Second, emergency response to maritime accidents was substantially accelerated through improved information flows and inter-agency collaboration. Third, preventive preparedness was strengthened by enhancing early warning systems and community engagement. In addition, agile governance contributed to improving human resource competencies through continuous learning processes and reinforced inter-institutional coordination among relevant stakeholders. This study concludes that agile governance constitutes an effective and contextually relevant governance framework for addressing complex maritime safety challenges in archipelagic regions. The integration of agile principles in the development of SiKaPal has not only improved operational efficiency and responsiveness but also strengthened institutional adaptability and collaborative capacity. Therefore, agile governance offers a strategic model for reinforcing adaptive public service systems in coastal and island-based administrations and holds strong potential for replication in other archipelagic governance contexts.

Abstract

Village tourism development is increasingly recognized as a strategic approach to promoting sustainable tourism, enhancing local community welfare, and improving destination competitiveness. Tanjungjaya Tourism, located in the buffer zone of the Tanjung Lesung Special Economic Zone, possesses significant natural, cultural, and community-based potential, yet faces challenges related to technology integration, environmental management, and tourism governance. This study aims to analyze the competitiveness of Tanjungjaya Tourism and formulate development strategies using a SWOT framework that integrates competitiveness assessment with strategic planning.  A qualitative approach was employed through in-depth interviews with village leaders, Tourism Awareness Groups (Pokdarwis), local entrepreneurs, residents, and visitors, complemented by observation and documentation. Data were analyzed thematically using NVivo 15, with five dimensions of tourism competitiveness (economic, socio-cultural, political, technological, and environmental) operationalized as primary coding categories.  The findings reveal that the economic and socio-cultural dimensions are the most dominant, as evidenced by higher coding density, frequent recurrence across stakeholder groups, and strong triangulated thematic patterns. These dimensions are reflected in active community participation, the preservation of local cultural heritage, and the presence of tourism-related SMEs. However, key challenges remain, including limited technology integration, suboptimal policy implementation, and environmental management that requires more systematic planning.  The SWOT-based analysis identifies strategic priorities, including strengthening digital literacy, enhancing community-based governance, developing thematic tourism products, promoting ecotourism and cultural tourism, and integrating technology into destination management. This study provides a strategic framework to strengthen Tanjungjaya Tourism as a sustainable, community-centered destination and offers actionable pathways to enhance long-term competitiveness.

Abstract

Jakarta, as a metropolitan city rich in history and culture, offers substantial potential for community-based tourism development through walking tours. The quality of tourist experiences is closely associated with the competence of tour guides, which is reflected in their education, certification, motivation, and professional performance.  This study examines the relationships between education and certification with motivation and their associations with the performance of the Jakarta Good Guide walking tour community. Data were collected from 32 respondents and analysed using Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM).  The results indicate that education is positively and significantly associated with motivation (β = 0.803; p < 0.001), whereas certification is not significantly associated with motivation (β = 0.022; p = 0.870). Motivation shows the strongest association with performance, as indicated by the largest path coefficient in the model (β = 0.850; p < 0.001). Furthermore, motivation mediates the relationship between education and performance within the tested model (β = 0.683; p < 0.001). In contrast, certification does not demonstrate significant direct or indirect associations with performance. These findings highlight the role of motivation as a key mechanism linking education and performance within this sample. From a practical perspective, the study suggests that community-based tourism development programs may benefit from prioritizing educational initiatives and motivational enhancement rather than relying solely on formal certification processes.

Abstract

The resolution of gross human rights violations during the 1965 Tragedy in Indonesia still faces structural obstacles, particularly through legal mechanisms and state policies. In this situation, the victim community has developed alternative culture-based advocacy strategies. Previous research has indicated that artistic activities serve as an alternative means of advocating for human rights victims, healing trauma, and political struggle. This article analyzes Ketoprak Srawung Bersama (KSB), a performance art practice initiated by the victim community under the Joint SekBer'65 Surakarta, as a cultural strategy in human rights advocacy. Using an interpretive qualitative approach with an ethnographic approach, data was collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation studies. In this analysis, uses Henri Lefebvre's spatial production and Antonio Gramsci's hegemony, as well as Victor Turner's liminality. The results show that KSB functions as a space for the production of alternative narratives, a medium for the negotiation of collective memory, and an affect-based advocacy strategy that challenges the state's hegemonic narrative about the 1965 Tragedy. Performing arts in this context not only represent the experiences of victims but also become a social practice that expands the discourse on human rights in the public sphere, likes agrarian issues, structural inequality, and exploitation. In the performance, the victims of '65 were involved in scriptwriting, acting, and directing. This was a novelty in previous research, which only addressed art as an alternative, but did not show how victims were involved in artistic productions that became a new space for victims of human rights violations.

Abstract

Curriculum development in vocational higher education continues to face structural challenges, particularly in aligning institutional design with dynamic labor market demands in the health sector. While existing studies emphasize competency-based and industry-oriented curricula, there remains a critical gap in empirically grounded, student-informed frameworks that integrate learning conditions, work–study balance, and adaptability to curricular change. This study addresses this gap by proposing a needs-informed curriculum development model derived from student experience, with an emphasis on adaptive learning environments and meaningful campus engagement. A quantitative descriptive approach was employed through a survey of 54 health polytechnic students. The study examined learning engagement, work–study conditions, and perceptions of curriculum implementation. The findings reveal that 72% of respondents were engaged in simultaneous work and study activities, while 68% reported achieving adequate mastery of theoretical knowledge and practical skills. However, 41% experienced moderate difficulties in adapting to curriculum changes, particularly in time management and instructional adjustment. These findings indicate that although dual-role students demonstrate resilience, structural support remains necessary to optimize learning outcomes. Based on these results, the study proposes a curriculum development model comprising three core components: (1) flexible curriculum structures accommodating working students, (2) adaptive learning strategies facilitating curriculum transition, and (3) experiential learning integration to enhance field relevance. The study implies that effective curriculum design in health polytechnics must extend beyond competency alignment to incorporate student adaptability and contextual learning dynamics. This research contributes a student-centered, empirically validated framework that strengthens institutional responsiveness and supports sustainable curriculum innovation.

Abstract

The phenomenon of cyber harassment as part of Online Gender-Based Violence (KBGO) is increasing and has a significant impact on female students, especially in areas with uneven digital literacy such as Southwest Papua. This study aims to analyze the change in students' abilities after the intervention of the 5R Method (Recognize, Respond, Record, Report, Refer) in dealing with cyber harassment, with the novelty in the form of the application of the 5R method as a gender-based structured intervention model that is empirically measured in the context of local universities. The study used a mixed methods method with a one group pretest– posttest design combined with a phenomenological approach, involving 60–70 female students of UNIMUDA Sorong who were selected by purposive sampling. The intervention was carried out through training for 3 sessions in 2 weeks, using a Likert scale questionnaire instrument (1–5) covering five 5R domains with a reliability of Cronbach's Alpha 0.82. The results showed an increase in the mean score from 2.71 to 3.89 (Δ=1.18), with the paired sample t-test showing a significant difference (p<0.05) and a measure of Cohen's effect d of 0.85 (large category). The qualitative findings reinforced these results, showing an increase in awareness, the ability to document digital evidence, and the use of reporting channels and psychosocial support, accompanied by an increased sense of post-intervention security. Although the limitations of the design without a control group limit causality claims, these findings suggest that the 5R method has the potential to be a relevant approach in supporting cyber harassment countermeasures and strengthening gender-based digital literacy in the college environment.

Abstract

Stakeholders play a crucial role in generating value within the tourism sector, as destination attractiveness alone is insufficient to ensure sustainable competitiveness. Tourists’ value expectations increasingly determine the success of tourism destinations. This study aims to map and analyze scientific publications related to stakeholders and tourism value using a bibliometric approach. Data were retrieved from the Dimensions database using the search string (“stakeholder” AND “value tourism”) applied to title, abstract, and keyword fields. After data cleaning and screening, a total of 895 peer-reviewed journal articles published between 2015 and 2024 were included. Bibliometric analysis was conducted using VOSviewer, focusing on publication trends, co-authorship networks, citation structures, total link strength, and keyword co-occurrence patterns. The results indicate a consistent growth in research related to stakeholders in tourism over the past decade, highlighting increasing academic attention to value creation and sustainable tourism development. The keyword co-occurrence analysis indicates that stakeholder-related value tourism frequently appears in peripheral cluster positions and exhibits lower total link strength compared to dominant themes such as tourist satisfaction and destination performance. This study contributes to the tourism literature by identifying emerging themes, research gaps, and potential directions for future studies, particularly in stakeholder collaboration and value co-creation. Practically, the findings provide insights for destination management organizations and policymakers to strengthen stakeholder involvement in developing sustainable tourism and enhancing destination brand equity.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the role of Generation Z in utilizing social media as a platform for political activism and mobilization in the digital era, with a particular focus on East Java Province. Social media has evolved into a digital public sphere that enables young people to access political information, express their views, and build political engagement in a more open and dynamic manner. This study employs a descriptive qualitative approach using a case study method involving individual digital activists and the student organization BEM SI East Java Region as research subjects. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, documentation of social media activities, and literature review. The findings indicate that social media plays a significant role in shaping Generation Z’s political communication strategies and encouraging the gradual mobilization of political participation through digital networks. However, digital political activism also faces several challenges, including the spread of disinformation, opinion polarization, social pressure, and concerns regarding digital regulation. This study concludes that social media serves as a strategic instrument in transforming Generation Z’s political participation toward more participatory digital democratic practices, while still requiring strengthened digital literacy and supportive policies to ensure a healthy and inclusive digital space.

Abstract

This study examines how the Government of Gorontalo Province operationalizes public communication as a governance strategy to strengthen public trust. While prior studies discuss public communication and good governance normatively, this research contributes by empirically mapping how transparency, participation, responsiveness, and accountability are practiced and interconnected within a provincial government setting. Using a qualitative case study design, data are collected through in-depth interviews with purposively selected informants, non-participant observations, and document analysis. Thematic analysis is applied to identify communication patterns and governance dimensions. The findings show that public communication is predominantly informational, with limited but emerging dialogical elements. Informants perceive that transparency and responsiveness are relatively evident in service delivery, whereas participation and accountability remain largely procedural. Within this case context, these patterns shape public perceptions of openness and fairness, indicating that strengthening dialogical and participatory communication is essential for sustaining public trust in local governance.
