Abstract

Orphans often face limitations in acquiring life skills, social values, and independence because they do not grow up in a complete family environment. This condition raises questions about how effectively orphanages can function as social institutions in preparing children to live independently in society. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of implementing a life skills program for orphans at the Harapan Jitra Orphanage in Bengkulu City from a sociological perspective, particularly in terms of socialization, value internalization, and children's social integration. The research employed a qualitative, descriptive approach. Data were collected through participant observation and in-depth interviews with the orphanage's head, caregivers, foster children, and alumni, as well as through document analysis to strengthen empirical findings. Data were analyzed through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results show that the life skills program at Harapan Jitra Orphanage is quite effective in fostering children's independence both socially and functionally. Through routine daily activities, vocational training, productive work, and spiritual guidance, the orphanage serves as a secondary socialization agent, replacing the family's role in instilling discipline, responsibility, cooperation, and a work ethic. Children not only gain basic and vocational skills but also experience positive changes in attitudes, social identity, and adaptive abilities in broader society. Based on Talcott Parsons' AGIL framework, the program fulfills adaptation, goal attainment, integration, and latency functions. Nevertheless, effectiveness is constrained by limited funding, professional staff, and training facilities. Overall, the program contributes to preparing orphans to be independent and socially integrated individuals.

Abstract

Integration of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in sustainability reporting within Indonesia’s healthcare sector remains fragmented and predominantly symbolic, creating a misalignment between global expectations and actual disclosure practices. This study aims to analyze how healthcare organizations integrate SDG-related information within the Triple Bottom Line (TBL) framework, and to compare disclosure patterns between state-owned and private institutions in order to evaluate whether sustainability reporting functions as a tool for substantive transformation or merely as a legitimacy mechanism. Using a qualitative content analysis approach, 45 sustainability and annual reports from 15 healthcare organizations (2 state-owned and 13 private) covering the period 2021–2023 were examined with NVivo 15 through open coding, thematic analysis, and matrix queries based on People, Planet, and Profit dimensions and six priority SDGs (SDG 3, 5, 8, 9, 12, 13). The results show that SDG integration is highly unbalanced: SDG 3 accounts for 45% of coded references, followed by SDG 8 (22%) and SDG 12 (15%), while SDG 13 represents only 2% of disclosures, indicating systematic underemphasis of climate action and environmental accountability. People and Profit dimensions clearly dominate reporting, with the Planet dimension receiving minimal attention, and state-owned hospitals focusing more on social legitimacy narratives. In contrast, private institutions emphasize profit-oriented and efficiency-driven disclosures, both with weak cross-dimensional integration and limited quantifiable performance indicators. The study concludes that sustainability reporting in Indonesia’s healthcare sector primarily serves legitimacy and stakeholder management purposes rather than driving authentic organizational change, and proposes the Health SDGs Integration Matrix as a practical framework for assessing SDG alignment quality and supporting the development of sector-specific regulatory guidance.

Abstract

This study aims to discuss the relevance of the Javanese cultural values of macak, manak, and masak in the process of family business succession to female successors. This study departs from the assumption that this philosophy still limits women’s roles to the domestic sphere, especially in the context of Javanese society, which is closely tied to patriarchal culture. The objective of this study is to analyze how the values of macak, manak, and masak are interpreted and implemented in the preparation and decision-making processes of family business succession. The study uses a qualitative case study design with five family businesses in Tulungagung Regency that have been operating across generations and involve female successors. Data collection techniques included semi-structured interviews, observations, focus group discussions (FGD), and source triangulation. The results of the study show that macak, manak, and masak are no longer the basis for the family business succession process. Four main themes were found, namely interest, independence, collaboration, and tradition. The interest of female successors is formed through early involvement and family support. Women’s independence develops in response to economic demands and to the need for business sustainability. Cross-generational collaboration occurs based on competence, not gender, while tradition is interpreted as the inheritance of moral values and family business identity. This study concludes that there has been a shift in values in family businesses.

Abstract

This study addresses the problem of suboptimal implementation of Regional Regulation Number 19 of 2016 on the Tourism Development Master Plan in promoting sustainable ecotourism in Samboja and Muara Badak Districts. The objective of this research is to analyze the extent to which the regulation has been implemented and to identify the factors influencing its effectiveness in coastal tourism development. The study applies the Van Meter and Van Horn policy implementation model and Scott’s institutional theory, with emphasis on the regulatory, normative, and cognitive pillars. A qualitative descriptive method was employed. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with officials from the Tourism Office, sub-district governments, destination managers, and Tourism Awareness Groups (Pokdarwis), as well as non-participant observation and documentation review of relevant regulations and planning documents. Data were analyzed using data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing techniques. The results indicate that the policy has clear objectives, including increasing tourist visits, promoting community empowerment through Pokdarwis, and ensuring environmental sustainability. However, implementation remains suboptimal due to the absence of derivative technical regulations, limited quantity and quality of human resources, fluctuating regional budgets, inadequate infrastructure, political dynamics, low environmental awareness, and geographical challenges such as coastal abrasion and land conflicts. From an institutional perspective, the regulatory, normative, and cognitive pillars are present but require strengthening, particularly to enhance community capacity and ensure policy consistency.

Abstract

Numeracy literacy skills are basic competencies that need to be developed in junior high school (SMP) students in the 21st century. However, mathematics learning in schools has not yet linked the concept of mathematics to the cultural context in daily life. This research aims to develop Student Worksheets (LKPD) in the Context of Tabut Culture with a valid and practical STEAM approach to facilitate students' numeracy literacy. This research uses the Research and Development (R&D) method with a 4D development model comprising define, design, and develop stages, while the disseminate stage is not carried out. The research subjects included 31 students and 1 mathematics teacher in grade VII of SMPN 1 Kepahiang. The research instrument consists of validation sheets and questionnaires on the practicality of students and teachers. The study's results showed that the LKPD developed had a validity rate of 87.83% in the very valid category. The results of the practicality test showed that 80.67% of students were in the practical category, and 82.27% of teachers were in the very practical category. These findings show that LKPD, in the context of Ark Culture with a STEAM approach, is suitable as innovative teaching materials to support contextual mathematics learning and improve students' numeracy literacy.

Abstract

Circle material is a fundamental topic in geometry that often causes misconceptions in high school students due to the difference between scientific knowledge and knowledge taught in school. This study aims to analyze the external didactic transposition of circle material by comparing the conceptual structure of scientific knowledge (scholarly knowledge) to the knowledge to be taught in high school mathematics textbooks. This study uses a qualitative descriptive approach with a document analysis method, comparing university-level geometry textbooks as a representation of scholarly knowledge with high school mathematics textbooks as a representation of knowledge to be taught. The results of the study show that external didactic transposition occurs in almost all circle concepts, characterized by simplification of language, adjustment of abstraction levels, reduction of concept classification, and addition of pedagogical and visualization contexts. The simplification and addition of pedagogical context can affect students’ conceptual understanding, especially in the relationships among elements of circles, such as arcs, central angles, circumferential angles, and tangents. These findings open up further research opportunities into internal didactic transposition and other mathematics topics and can serve as a reference for teachers and book developers to improve the quality of coherent, conceptual mathematics learning.

Abstract

Indonesian students continue to demonstrate weak scientific literacy, as indicated by international assessment results, underscoring the need for more effective, contextually relevant learning innovations. This study aims to analyze the implementation of ZEP Quiz in science instruction and to examine its contribution to improving students’ scientific literacy in a madrasah context. The research applied a qualitative case study approach involving eighth-grade students and a science teacher at MTsN 23 Jakarta. Data were obtained through classroom observations, semi-structured interviews, questionnaires, and document analysis, and were analyzed using the interactive model of Miles and Huberman. The results indicate a significant improvement in student learning achievement, with the mean score increasing from 44 in the pretest to 80 in the posttest, and 96.6% of students showing positive progress. Qualitative findings reveal that ZEP Quiz use strengthens student engagement, learning motivation, and scientific literacy competencies, particularly in explaining scientific phenomena, interpreting data, and applying concepts to real-world contexts. These findings confirm that ZEP Quiz is an effective digital learning medium for enhancing scientific literacy through active and student-centered science learning in a madrasah environment.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the implementation of character mentoring programs to foster students' morals, attitudes, and behaviors at SMP Islam Internasional Al Abidin Boyolali. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach, with data collection through observation, in-depth interviews, and document analysis. Data analysis is carried out through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing to understand the process of character mentoring activities comprehensively. The study found that character mentoring was conducted weekly in a cross-generational group of 10-15 students, with a supervisor's assistance. This grouping pattern allows for more intense interaction and a more personalized mentoring process. In its implementation, mentoring does not focus solely on delivering material but also includes a series of activities, namely habituation activities, teacher examples, and continuous mentoring, thus allowing the internalization of Islamic values to occur in a sustained manner. Thus, the program contributes to the formation of student attitudes and behaviors consistent with the values of akhlakul karimah when implemented consistently and supported by the school environment.

Abstract

Access to proper education is still a structural problem for Indonesian migrant children in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The absence of immigration documents, administrative barriers, and limited family economic conditions has caused most migrant children to be unable to access formal education equally. This study aims to analyze the role of Guidance Studio as a community-based non-formal education program to ensure educational rights for Indonesian migrant children. This study uses a cumulative case study approach. Data was collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observations, and documentation during the author’s direct involvement as a volunteer teacher at the Guidance Studio. The results of the study show that the Guidance Studio plays a significant role in providing access to alternative education through flexible, context-based learning, strengthening basic literacy, and shaping the character and national identity of migrant children. Despite legal and resource limitations, the Guidance Studio remains committed to becoming a safe and inclusive space that ensures the fulfillment of children’s educational rights. These findings affirm the importance of community-based alternative education as a strategy in reducing inequality in access to education for marginalized groups of migrant children.

Abstract

Students with autism often experience difficulties in understanding and organizing time sequences, particularly in distinguishing natural time periods such as day and night. This study aimed to develop Augmented Reality (AR)–based Time Sorting learning media to improve students’ understanding of day-night concepts. The research employed a development research approach using the ADDIE model, comprising Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation. Data were collected through expert validation questionnaires, classroom observations, and pre-test and post-test assessments to evaluate the validity, practicality, and effectiveness of the developed media. The results showed that the AR Time Sorting learning media were categorized as valid and highly feasible, with validity scores of 100% from media and subject matter experts. Teacher responses indicated that the media were easy to use, and students maintained focus on the AR visualizations with minimal distraction. Statistical analysis revealed a significant improvement in students’ understanding of day and night concepts, with a significance value of 0.028 (p < 0.05). These findings indicate that AR-based Time Sorting learning media are effective in improving students with autism’s understanding of day and night concepts.
