Abstract

The purpose of this research is to analyze the relationship between the open unemployment rate (TPT) and demographic factors such as age group and residence area (urban and rural) in Indonesia during the period 2015-2018 using Chi-square analysis. This study employs a quantitative research approach with a descriptive and inferential statistical analysis to examine the relationship between the Open Unemployment Rate (TPT), age group, and residence area (urban vs. rural) in Indonesia from 2015 to 2018. The research uses secondary data obtained from official labor market statistics. Based on the results of the National Labor Force Survey (Sakernas), issued by the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) in 2018, the TPT in urban areas was 6.45 percent while the TPT in rural areas was only 4.04 percent. Compared to 2017, the TPT in urban areas itself decreased by 0.34 percent while the TPT in rural areas increased by 0.03 percent. To build upon this study, future research could explore the role of education and skill mismatches such as investigating how educational attainment and field of study influence employment outcomes could provide a deeper understanding of skill mismatches in the labor market.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the labor conditions in Indonesia from February 2016 to February 2019 using the Linear Trend Forecasting method. This study employs a quantitative research approach using Linear Trend Forecasting to analyze Indonesia's labor conditions from February 2016 to February 2019. The objective is to identify trends in the unemployment rate, labor force growth, sectoral employment shifts, and educational disparities in unemployment. The Linear Trend Forecasting analysis reveals a declining trend in Indonesia’s unemployment rate from 2016 to 2019, with projections indicating further reductions in 2020. Urban unemployment remains higher (6.205%) than rural unemployment (3.135%), highlighting disparities in labor absorption. Human Capital Theory suggests that differences in employment rates are influenced by education, skill development, and labor market readiness. The findings emphasize the importance of workforce training, education reform, and government policies in reducing unemployment. Future studies can explore the impact of digital transformation on employment trends in Indonesia.

Abstract

This research analyzes the impact of FinTech Implementation on the digital financial understanding of accounting students in Southeast Asia. Novelty of this research is to develop a new measurement by adding 3 new dimensions to the Financial Technology Implementation variable and 2 new dimensions to Digital Finance Understanding variable. This research used Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) approach. This study employs a quantitative approach with qualitative support, using PLS-SEM as the primary analytical method. The quantitative approach is used to analyze relationships between variables, while the qualitative method provides deeper insights into students' experiences with FinTech adoption. Population in this study are accounting students in Southeast Asia, particularly in Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, Brunei Darussalam, and Philippines. Purposive sampling is used to select students from universities with accounting programs and targets 320 respondents. The implementation of Financial Technology (FinTech) significantly enhances Digital Financial Understanding (DFU) by improving financial literacy, accessibility, and user engagement with digital financial services. FinTech platforms, such as digital banking apps, investment platforms, and robo-advisors, provide real-time financial insights, interactive financial tools, and educational resources. The dimensions that are novelty in this study, namely Adoption Intention (X5), Actual Usage (X6), Regulatory Awareness (X7), Digital Financial Behavior (Y4), Regulatory and Consumer Protection Awareness (Y5) have been successfully measured well and become variables that support expansion tests. Future research should examine how FinTech engagement influences financial understanding over an extended period.

Abstract

This research is aim to analyze the influence of various learning environments (physical, digital, and hybrid) on students' social behavior. This research aims to contribute valuable insights into the evolving educational landscape, offering practical implications for educators, school administrators, and policymakers in fostering holistic student development. This study is grounded in Vygotsky's Sociocultural Theory, which emphasizes the fundamental role of social interaction in cognitive and behavioral development. This study employs a qualitative research design, using a phenomenological approach to explore students' lived experiences regarding the influence of the learning environment on their social behavior. This study demonstrates that students' social behavior is deeply influenced by the learning environment, whether traditional, digital, or hybrid. Well-structured and supportive learning environments, both physical and digital, promote positive social interactions, empathy, and teamwork among students. Future research should explore the long-term impact of different learning environments on students' social behavior, particularly in the context of evolving educational technologies.

Abstract

This study examines the percentage of Indonesian households accessing the internet in the past three months, disaggregated by location, during the period 2015–2017. Using secondary data from the National Socio-Economic Survey (SUSENAS) conducted by the Central Statistics Agency (BPS), the study applies descriptive statistics to identify access patterns and chi-square tests to evaluate potential relationships between household conditions and internet access location. The findings show a steady increase in household internet access over the three-year period, with home-based access emerging as the most dominant and growing mode of connectivity. Conversely, access via mobile vehicles declined, while internet use at workplaces and public facilities remained low. Chi-square analysis indicates no significant relationship between household conditions and access location. These results highlight the increasing reliance on household internet access and its potential role in supporting learning and digital literacy in Indonesia. However, persistent disparities across regions and socio-economic groups suggest that policies must go beyond infrastructure expansion to address issues of affordability, inclusiveness, and digital literacy. This study contributes to the literature on digital inclusion and provides implications for policymakers, educators, and stakeholders in advancing equitable access to education in the digital age.

Abstract

This study investigates the relationship between household expenditure levels and birth certificate ownership among children aged 0–17 years in Indonesia. Using secondary data from Badan Pusat Statistik (BPS) for the period 2015–2017, the research applies the Chi-Square test of independence (contingency table analysis) to determine whether children from the bottom 40% expenditure group are less likely to possess birth certificates compared to other groups. The results show that the Chi-Square value (χ² = 0.019174) at a 5% significance level indicates no statistically significant association between household expenditure group and birth certificate ownership. This finding suggests that efforts by the Indonesian government to improve civil registration may have contributed to reducing inequality across income groups. Despite this, regional and micro-level disparities may still persist. The study highlights the importance of continuous policy interventions, awareness programs, and integrated registration services to ensure universal birth certificate coverage for all children in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study investigates the educational impacts of learning smart farming through Internet of Things (IoT)-based smart goat housing systems in vocational education. The rapid digital transformation of agriculture has created a growing demand for graduates with strong technological and applied competencies; however, the integration of real smart farming technologies into vocational curricula remains limited. To address this gap, this research employed a quasi-experimental design with a pretest–posttest non-equivalent control group to compare IoT prototype-based learning with conventional instructional approaches. The study involved vocational students enrolled in agriculture-related programs, where the experimental group engaged in project-based learning using an operational IoT-enabled smart goat housing system, while the control group received traditional instruction. The findings indicate that students exposed to IoT prototype-based learning demonstrated significantly higher improvements in digital competence, applied learning outcomes, and learning engagement compared to those in the control group. Qualitative insights further revealed that authentic interaction with real-time data and automated systems enhanced students’ understanding, motivation, and confidence in using digital technologies. These results highlight the pedagogical value of integrating real IoT prototypes into vocational education and confirm the effectiveness of experiential and technology-enhanced learning approaches in developing workforce-relevant competencies. This study contributes to vocational education literature by positioning livestock-based smart farming systems as effective learning media for digital agriculture education.

Abstract

The digital transformation of agriculture has created new opportunities and challenges for accounting education, particularly in developing social accounting competencies related to sustainability and social responsibility. This study aims to examine the effect of an IoT-based goat farming learning system on the development of social accounting competencies in vocational and applied accounting education. Using a quantitative explanatory research design, this study integrates a technology-enhanced learning approach supported by real-time data generated from IoT-enabled goat farming systems. Data were collected from students participating in IoT-based learning activities and analyzed using Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The results indicate that the IoT-based goat farming learning system has a positive and significant effect on social accounting competencies, including the ability to identify, measure, interpret, and report social and environmental impacts. The findings demonstrate that real-time livestock data provide an effective experiential learning environment that bridges the gap between abstract social accounting concepts and practical applications. This study contributes to accounting education literature by repositioning IoT-based livestock systems as pedagogical platforms rather than purely operational tools. The study also offers practical implications for educators, curriculum designers, and policymakers seeking to strengthen sustainability-oriented accounting education in digitally transformed agribusiness contexts.

Abstract

The development of fortified goat milk offers a promising approach to addressing nutritional deficiencies while creating value-added opportunities in the dairy sector, particularly in rural and peri-urban communities. Despite its potential, many fortified goats milk initiatives remain small-scale due to limited entrepreneurial capacity, weak market integration, and low adoption of digital financial systems. This study aims to examine educational strategies that integrate fortified goat milk development with digital financial ecosystems to enhance enterprise sustainability and scalability. Using a mixed-methods approach, the study combines qualitative interviews and focus group discussions with quantitative survey analysis involving educators, students, dairy producers, and digital finance practitioners. The findings reveal that conventional education emphasizes technical production skills while neglecting financial literacy and digital finance competencies. Integrated educational strategies significantly improve digital banking adoption, financial management practices, and access to microfinancing, which in turn mediate improvements in business performance. The study contributes a novel interdisciplinary framework that links nutrition innovation education with digital finance literacy, offering practical insights for educators, policymakers, and development agencies seeking to strengthen fortified dairy value chains and promote inclusive, digitally enabled agro-entrepreneurship.
