Abstract

The increasing prevalence of online gaming has raised concerns about potential challenges facing students, particularly regarding mental health, financial stability, and economic implications. For Generation Z, online games have become a significant avenue for engaging in the informal economy, with gambling emerging as a prominent aspect facilitated by technological advancements. This study investigates how Generation Z navigates the allure of online gaming, resists temptations, and manages associated risks. Drawing upon Ulrich Beck's Risk Society theory and employing ethnographic methods, the research examines the decision-making processes of Generation Z players. Data collection involved interviews with respondents in various settings, supplemented by existing research in the field. The findings highlight several key issues, including the temptations of social media integration, peer influence, and financial gains, as well as the risks of accumulating debt and developing dependencies on gaming for entertainment and monetary rewards. These challenges pose significant implications for the mental well-being of Generation Z individuals.

Abstract

In the contemporary world, sustainable digital transformation involves the judicious application of innovative technologies to enhance the current and future well-being of individuals. This paper explores the transformative trajectory of India's digital policies, such as Aadhaar, Jan-DhanYojna, Bharat Net, and Digital India, demonstrating a dedicated commitment to digital inclusion. However, the World's largest open schooling system, the National Institute of Open Schooling (NIOS), strategically harnessed the technology to enhance equity, inclusion, and accessibility in education. The paper delves into the intersection of digital transformation and education, emphasizing its potential to revolutionize the learning experience, empower learners, and engage society. NIOS's systematic and academic digital initiatives emphasize the importance of e-governance, innovation, and the integration of digital platforms and resources. Through e-governance and innovative approaches, NIOS has streamlined administrative processes, improved transparency, and enhanced accessibility for learners. Academic transformation concentrates on reshaping pedagogical approaches and content delivery. The paper also addresses eSchools' potential to redefine education landscapes and the need for research and development to push the boundaries of digital education. This paper presents insights that contribute to the ongoing discourse on leveraging digital transformation to achieve access to equitable and inclusive education on a global scale.

Abstract

This study evaluates sustainable transportation development in Batam City, focusing on the accessibility of public transportation for persons with disabilities as a sustainability indicator. Utilizing qualitative research methods, primary data were collected through interviews, complemented by secondary data from various sources such as Department of Transportation reports, Batam City Government documents, and online media. Data analysis employed triangulation, supported by Vosviewer Tools for processing secondary data. Findings reveal inadequate transportation accessibility services for people with disabilities in Batam City. Effectiveness, efficiency, adequacy, and equality for this demographic remain suboptimal, indicating a lack of sustainable and inclusive approaches. Regional regulations concerning disabilities are not fully implemented, and there's a lack of management strategies for transportation or Transport Demand Management tailored to assist people with disabilities. The Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) system's ineffectiveness hampers transportation connectivity, exacerbating access challenges. Essential disability facilities like ramps and bell signals are unevenly provided, while the limited number of special seats creates difficulties in prioritizing pregnant women and the elderly. Consequently, the current serviceability access falls short of meeting the standard needs of people with disabilities, as envisioned in Sustainable Transportation frameworks.

Abstract

This article examines Japan's significant foreign policy changes in 2022, focusing on three crucial documents: the National Security Strategy (NSS), the National Defence Strategy (NDS), and the Medium-Term Defence Force Buildup Program (MTDP), issued on December 6, 2022. The NSS, a pivotal strategic document, outlines Japan's foreign policy direction and includes plans to increase defence spending to 2% of GDP by 2027. It also introduces the concept of the Capability for Counterattacks, both of which signify a shift in Japan's approach to foreign policy. Japan's anti-militarism stance, rooted in Article 9 of its Constitution, prohibits the maintenance of military forces. This article aims to explore the factors driving Japan's foreign policy changes in 2022. Using a qualitative research methodology that incorporates both primary and secondary data sources, this study will analyze these factors through the lens of Coplin’s theoretical framework. According to Coplin’s Theory, changes in Japan’s foreign policy are influenced by three indicators: 1) Domestic politics, 2) Economic and military conditions, and 3) International context.

Abstract

The research addresses the challenges, objectives, methods, results, and conclusions of cultivating literacy programs at SMP and SMA Al Umanaa Boarding Schools. The main issue identified is the limited student engagement in the School Literacy Movement (SLM) due to time constraints and lack of motivation, while the objective is to investigate the strategies employed by the Al Umanaa Foundation to cultivate a literacy culture. Using a qualitative method, data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation studies, focusing on participants such as school principals, literacy teams, teachers, and library managers. The study reveals that the Al Umanaa Foundation effectively adapts the literacy learning syllabus to the national curriculum, creates a conducive physical environment, and involves the community in literacy activities. Key initiatives include providing reading corners, literacy corners, and libraries, as well as engaging students in competitions and training programs. Despite encountering financial constraints and limited government support, the foundation has successfully utilized community collaborations and innovative funding strategies to sustain its literacy programs. The research concludes that a comprehensive and collaborative approach, integrating physical, social, and academic environments, is essential for cultivating a robust literacy culture. The Al Umanaa Foundation's strategies can serve as a model for other educational institutions aiming to enhance literacy and academic performance.

Abstract

Cross-dressing refers to the act of donning garments often associated with the opposite gender. Throughout history, cross-dressing has been extensively recorded and is frequently linked to stereotypes such as deviance, fetishism, exhibitionism, sexual deviance, and homosexuality. Coping mechanisms refer to psychological strategies employed by the subconscious mind to shield individuals from feelings of anxiety, social repercussions, and unmanageable circumstances in the immediate present. This study aimed to elucidate that Cross-Dressing is not just attributable to perceptions of sexual deviance and transvestism, but rather, other factors contribute to an individual's adoption of Cross-Dressing. The research methodology employed in this study is a single-design case study. The study found that the participants experienced the loss of their beloved mother as a catalyst for adopting a Cross-Dressing lifestyle, perceiving it as a means to compensate for the void created by her death. The findings of this study indicate that cross-dressing behaviour serves as a long-lasting method for individuals to repress their emotions related to loss rather than being primarily attributed to transvestism or preconceptions of sexual deviance associated with the subject of investigation.

Abstract

This study applies deconstruction, a key theory in postcolonial studies, to analyze and reinterpret the meaning within Tiara Andini's popular Indonesian song, Maafkan Aku. By examining both the literal meaning and its deconstruction, the research aims to uncover hidden layers of meaning in the song's lyrics. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, data from the lyrics are analyzed through textual analysis and the concept of deconstruction. The analysis first identifies binary oppositions in the lyrics and then challenges these oppositions to reveal new interpretations. Findings highlight the contrast between themes of penitence (as the song’s explicit meaning) and expectation (as its underlying meaning). The lyrics deconstruct the notion of penitence as a "victim" with an opposing sense of expectation as a "villain." This study offers a nuanced exploration of how deconstruction unveils alternative interpretations, contributing to a broader understanding of how popular culture uses language to express complex emotional and relational dynamics.

Abstract

Tourism is a key economic sector in Indonesia, significantly contributing to foreign exchange and national revenue. Developing a sustainable tourism strategy requires collaboration across academia, businesses, communities, government, media, and NGOs. However, one major challenge in Indonesia’s tourism sector is the lack of synergistic, comprehensive, and integrated stakeholder collaboration. To address this issue, this study aims to develop a sustainable tourism strategy for Pati Regency based on the hexa helix model, which emphasizes multi-stakeholder engagement in tourism destinations. Using a mixed-methods approach, this research incorporates qualitative methods—such as interviews, observations, and documentation—and a quantitative analysis through MACTOR (Matrix of Alliance, Conflicts, Tactics, Objectives, Recommendations) to map stakeholder interactions. Findings reveal a high level of alignment between the Youth, Sports, and Tourism Office (DINPORAPAR) and SMEs, scoring 21.7 on the convergence scale. The primary focus for sustainable development is on enhancing innovation and competitive ability, identified as the most influential objective.
