Abstract

This study aims to examine the role of the begawe tradition in strengthening social solidarity within the Pendua Village community. The research employs a qualitative method using a case study approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and documentation. The findings indicate that the begawe tradition plays a significant role in reinforcing social solidarity through various aspects, including mutual cooperation (gotong royong), social interaction, preservation of cultural values, and the enhancement of a sense of belonging within the community. The begawe tradition represents a form of local wisdom of the Sasak community in Lombok, West Nusa Tenggara, and is practiced as part of wedding ceremonies, circumcision rituals, and religious events. This tradition not only reflects the spiritual and social dimensions of the community but also strengthens communal solidarity. This study further aims to describe the forms of begawe tradition implementation, the cultural values embedded within it, and its relevance in modern community life. A descriptive qualitative method was applied through literature review and field observation. The results show that the begawe tradition continues to be preserved by the community as a symbol of cultural identity and as a means of strengthening social relationships.

Abstract

Public order constitutes one of the compulsory functions of local governments and requires policies to be implemented in an effective and sustainable manner. The Padang Utara District in Padang City continues to experience persistent public order issues, including the presence of unauthorized street vendors, improper parking practices, and the inappropriate use of public spaces. In response to these challenges, the district government introduced a non-digital policy initiative through the establishment of the Kesatria Team. This study aims to analyze the factors that support and hinder the implementation of the Kesatria Team in maintaining public order in Padang Utara District. The research adopts a descriptive qualitative approach, with data collected through in-depth interviews and document review. The findings reveal that inter-agency coordination, strong leadership commitment, and clearly defined task allocation serve as key supporting factors in policy implementation. Conversely, low levels of public awareness, economic pressures, and limited supporting facilities remain the primary obstacles to effective policy execution.

Abstract

This study examines the factors influencing the implementation of the Child-Friendly City (Kota Layak Anak/KLA) policy in Padang City, focusing on the special protection cluster and drawing on George C. Edward III’s policy implementation framework. The KLA policy is a strategic public initiative aimed at fulfilling children’s rights and strengthening protection from violence, exploitation, neglect, and other forms of abuse. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews and document analysis involving officials from the Office of Women’s Empowerment and Child Protection, representatives of P2TP2A, and members of the Women and Children Protection Unit. The findings indicate that implementation is supported by a clear regulatory framework, institutional coordination, and the availability of child protection services. However, limited human and financial resources, weak cross-sectoral communication, low community participation, and uneven implementer commitment continue to hinder policy effectiveness. These factors significantly shape the performance of the special protection cluster in Padang City, underscoring the need to strengthen resources, enhance coordination, and improve institutional commitment.

Abstract

School principal leadership plays a strategic role in improving teacher performance as one of the key determinants of educational quality in schools. Principals function not only as administrative managers but also as instructional leaders who guide, supervise, and motivate teachers. This study aims to analyze principal leadership strategies in improving teacher performance based on findings from previous studies. The research employed a literature review design by analyzing relevant Indonesian national journal articles published within the last ten years. Data were collected through a systematic search using Google Scholar with keywords related to principal leadership and teacher performance. The data were analyzed using a qualitative descriptive approach through data reduction, thematic categorization, and synthesis of research findings. The results indicate that effective principal leadership strategies in improving teacher performance include academic supervision, enhancement of teacher motivation and discipline, exemplary leadership, participative leadership, effective interpersonal communication, and the strengthening of school culture. These strategies are interconnected and should be implemented in an integrated manner to enhance teacher professionalism and sustainable performance improvement. This study is expected to serve as a reference for school principals and educational stakeholders in developing effective leadership practices in schools.

Abstract

This study examines and summarizes the relationship between dividend policy and stock price movements in the consumer non-cyclicals sector. The research aims to determine whether dividend policy contributes to investor confidence and influences stock price behavior. The study employs a panel data approach with a two-year observation period (2023–2024) and uses purposive sampling to select 26 companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. Descriptive statistical analysis is applied to capture variations in stock prices and dividend payout ratios. This research adopts a quantitative descriptive approach, which systematically and structurally describes relevant phenomena and characteristics based on numerical data. The findings indicate that a high Dividend Payout Ratio (DPR) is not necessarily accompanied by an increase in stock prices. This result suggests that investors’ decisions in valuing company shares are not solely influenced by the magnitude of dividends distributed, but also by other fundamental and market-related factors.

Abstract

Village head elections (pilkades) represent a form of local democracy that involves active community participation. This study aims to examine the impact of village head elections on social interaction within the Baebunta Village community, from both positive and negative perspectives. The research employs a descriptive qualitative approach, with data collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation. Research informants included village head candidates, village officials, community leaders, religious leaders, women leaders, youth leaders, and residents involved in the election process. The findings indicate that the village head election in Baebunta Village produces dual impacts. On the positive side, it increases community political awareness, encourages active participation in the village democratic process, and fosters cooperation between the village government and residents in development activities. However, negative impacts also emerge, including horizontal conflicts, polarization among supporters, a decline in social solidarity, and post-election group exclusivity. Data analysis reveals that community social interaction undergoes dynamic changes, shifting from political tension toward social reconciliation through collective village activities. This study concludes that village head elections function not only as political arenas but also as significant factors shaping patterns of social relationships within the community. Therefore, active involvement of the village government is required to maintain social harmony, along with reconciliation mechanisms to prevent prolonged negative impacts.

Abstract

The development of digital technology has brought significant changes to various aspects of education, including learning assessment systems. Islamic Religious Education (IRE), as a subject aimed at shaping students who are faithful, knowledgeable, and possess noble character, requires a comprehensive and contextual assessment approach. Authentic assessment emerges as an alternative evaluation method that holistically measures students’ cognitive, affective, and psychomotor domains through tasks that reflect real-life situations. This paper aims to examine the concept of authentic assessment, its innovative forms in Islamic Religious Education learning in the digital era, as well as the challenges and opportunities of its implementation. This study employs a qualitative approach through a literature review of recent scholarly sources, educational regulations, and both classical and contemporary literature in Islamic education. The findings indicate that the integration of digital technology into authentic assessment in Islamic Religious Education can enhance the objectivity, efficiency, and relevance of assessment, while also supporting the internalization of Islamic values in students’ daily lives. Therefore, strengthening teachers’ competencies and developing digital-based assessment instruments are urgent needs in the advancement of Islamic Religious Education learning.

Abstract

English for Specific Purposes (ESP) is an approach to English language teaching designed based on learners’ academic and professional needs. In the context of modern education, particularly in higher education and vocational education, the use of English for General Purposes (EGP) is considered insufficient to fully address the demands for specific language competencies aligned with particular fields of study and the workplace. Therefore, the implementation of ESP is essential to enhance the relevance of English language learning to learners’ real needs. This study aims to analyze the concept and characteristics of English for Specific Purposes and to examine its implementation in the learning process within educational settings. The research method employs a qualitative approach, with data collected through a literature review of books, national and international journal articles, and curriculum documents related to ESP instruction. The findings indicate that ESP learning based on needs analysis can improve learning motivation, contextual language understanding, and learners’ readiness to meet academic and professional demands. Moreover, ESP encourages educators to design contextual and relevant instructional materials. The implications of this study emphasize that integrating ESP into educational curricula is crucial for improving the quality of English language learning and producing graduates with language competencies aligned with their professional needs.

Abstract

The marketing of illegal cigarettes is a growing phenomenon in Indonesia and poses serious impacts on state revenue, fair business competition, and public health protection. Illegal cigarettes are generally marketed without excise tax stamps or by using counterfeit excise stamps, both through conventional distribution channels and digital media. This article aims to analyze the legal framework governing the marketing of illegal cigarettes, the forms of marketing practices that occur in practice, and the effectiveness of law enforcement carried out by the competent authorities. The research method employed is normative legal research using statutory and conceptual approaches. The findings indicate that although the legal regulation of excise has been comprehensively and strictly stipulated, the marketing of illegal cigarettes remains widespread due to weak supervision, economic factors, and low public legal awareness. Therefore, strengthening law enforcement and enhancing inter-agency synergy are necessary to suppress the circulation of illegal cigarettes in Indonesia.

Abstract

The paradigm of 21st-century education emphasizes the importance of Higher-Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) as a fundamental foundation for addressing global challenges. This article analyzes the relationship between HOTS—encompassing analytical, critical, and creative thinking skills—and the deep learning curriculum concept that emphasizes joyful, mindful, and meaningful learning. The research method employs a literature review approach by examining scholarly articles published between 2024 and 2025 obtained from Google Scholar and nationally accredited reputable journals relevant to the development of HOTS within the context of the Merdeka Curriculum. The findings indicate that deep learning–based instruction is able to activate HOTS holistically: joyful learning stimulates creativity, mindful learning strengthens critical evaluation through metacognitive awareness, and meaningful learning facilitates in-depth analysis through contextual experiences. The integration of these three principles creates a humanistic and transformative learning ecosystem. This article affirms that a deep learning curriculum is not merely a pedagogical approach, but a strategic framework for improving the quality of national education based on 21st-century competencies.
