Abstract

The community in Kota Bharu, particularly the asnaf group, plays a crucial role in improving their quality of life. They possess the capacity to act as agents of change in reducing poverty within their community. This study aims to explore how these agents implement strategies to enhance economic and social well-being through community development projects, using Bandura’s theory of agency as a theoretical framework. A qualitative research approach was employed, utilizing in-depth interviews with participants to examine their business plans and monitor the outcomes of their entrepreneurial projects. Participants were selected through purposive sampling and were supervised over a period of time to assess their level of community development. The findings indicate that community members are able to apply Bandura’s agency framework in mitigating poverty within their communities. By adapting a development module based on the four components of Bandura’s agency, participants successfully improved their well-being and contributed to sustainable economic development. Furthermore, this study identifies several critical phases essential for ensuring the continuity of their efforts in overcoming future business challenges. Ultimately, the study aligns with the first United Nations Sustainable Development Goal (SDG 1) by contributing to poverty alleviation among marginalized populations.

Abstract

This research aims to develop the growth mindset of eleventh-grade students using Open Approach. Six students from grade 11 from a school under the Yala Secondary Educational Service Area Office were selected.  The students initially had a fixed mindsetat levels F1 and F2 and a weak growth mindset at level G1 before the development process. This study is a classroom action research. The instruments of this research consisted of three lesson plans on probability using Open Approach, activity sheets, a mindset assessment form, an interview form, a post-lesson report, a video camera, and a voice recorder. Data analysis was conducted using the mindset framework analysis from the Mindset Works Educator Kit (2012). Percentage analysis and qualitative methods were obtained in the research. The research findings indicated that students who participated in learning through Open Approach showed progress in their growth mindset scores, with 33% reaching level G3, 50% reaching level G2, and 17% remaining at level G1. Students showed behaviors of embracing challenges, demonstrating efforts, solving problems independently, valuing peer feedback as beneficial to learning, and viewing others' success as a source of inspiration and learning examples.

Abstract

The increasing use of English terms in Indonesian-language newspapers reflects the influence of globalization on media discourse. While previous studies have discussed code-mixing and lexical borrowing in mass media, few have specifically examined the systematic use of English terms in editorial columns, which are influential in shaping public opinion. Addressing this gap, this study investigates the use of English terms in the editorial column of the Kompas daily newspaper, focusing on the April 2023 edition. The data were drawn from Indonesian-language editorials published in Kompas and analyzed using qualitative discourse analysis. The results indicate that English terms in Kompas editorials are most common in politics, law, and governance (29.9%), followed by economy and development (22.4%) and society and culture (19.4%). These terms are mainly used to express formal and contemporary issues. Verbs account for only 4.4% of the data, indicating that English borrowing is largely limited to content words, especially nouns. Overall, English influence in the editorials is primarily lexical and does not affect Indonesian grammatical structure. This study contributes to sociolinguistic and media discourse research by providing empirical evidence on the grammatical distribution of English terms in Indonesian editorials and highlighting their functional role in written journalistic discourse.

Abstract

The irrigation systems that use canal command require effective, but not expensive, strategies to quantify annual water requirements and water losses. Field-based traditional methods are all costly and cumbersome to generalize. The current research paper demonstrates how satellite imagery and a crop water need model were applied to estimate the extent of water lost or utilized during the season in the 354-acre command of watercourse number 5AR in the UC Chukhi district, Hyderabad, Pakistan. The CROPWAT model was used to estimate reference evapotranspiration (ET0) and crop evapotranspiration (ETc) using 5 years of meteorological data. Landsat eight images processed in ArcGIS 10.1 provided a classified map of major crops and their acreage. Wheat (24.5 percent of the hectares under cultivation) was the primary crop, followed by mango (17.5 percent), banana (14.0 percent), sugarcane (7.1 percent), and others. 29.6 percent of the hectares were under cultivation, while the remaining 70.4 percent were not. Berry volumetric demands were 117.7 acre-ft (wheat), 81.56 acre-ft (mango), 169.4 acre-ft (banana), 77.4 acre-ft (sugarcane), and 66.38 acre-ft (other crops). The surface water and ground water were 430.3 and 403.04 acre-ft, respectively, and the seasonal supply was 833.45 acre-ft. The seasonal losses incurred were estimated at 279.6 acre-ft, equal to 33.5 percent of the amount of water supplied, 15.0 percent of the conveyance losses, and 18.5 percent of the application losses; application losses exceeded conveyance losses by about 3.5 percentage points. The results suggest that combining CROPWAT and Landsat-based crop mapping with straightforward discharge measurements can offer a feasible, cost-effective, and transferable method for quantifying seasonal water losses and contribute to planning and policy-making for irrigation decisions in canal-command contexts of a similar nature.

Abstract

This research aims to develop an effective learning model for instilling Islamic religious values, particularly those related to religious moderation, in slow-learning students in inclusive schools. Slow-learning students require an adaptive and structured instructional approach to understand abstract concepts such as religious moderation.The model developed integrates a visual-kinesthetic approach, experiential learning, and the use of interactive digital media, adapted to their learning characteristics. The trial results showed a significant increase in students' understanding and moderate attitudes toward diversity. This model is recommended as a practical guide for Islamic Religious Education (PAI) teachers in supporting inclusive education and strengthening national character.

Abstract

This study analyzes the social construction of Islamic constitutional law students at Sunan Drajat University, Lamongan, regarding the concept of Islamic statecraft (fiqh siyasah) and its relationship to the Pancasila state system. The background of this study departs from the dynamics of the relationship between Islam and the state in Indonesia and the position of students in two scientific traditions, namely Islamic law and positive constitutional law. The purpose of this study is to examine the process of social construction of understanding, the relationship between fiqh siyasah and Pancasila, and the factors that influence it. This study uses a qualitative approach with a phenomenological type. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and documentation studies, then analyzed using Peter L. Berger and Thomas Luckmann's social construction theory through the stages of externalization, objectivation, and internalization. The results show that students' understanding of fiqh siyasah develops from an initial limited understanding to a more conceptual understanding through the academic learning process. The relationship between Islam and Pancasila is understood in a moderate and integrative manner, without conflict, because the values ​​of both are considered harmonious. This social construction is mainly influenced by formal education, supported by the academic environment, Islamic boarding schools (pesantren), and the media. In conclusion, the educational process in the Islamic boarding school environment, which is integrated with higher education, produces a moderate, adaptive, and integrative understanding of the relationship between Islam and the state in Indonesia.

Abstract

This research departs from a conceptual unease about the importance of recognizing talent early in the framework of Ki Hadjar Dewantara’s thought. In this study, ‘talent’ refers to students’ inherent aptitudes, abilities, or natural potentials that can be recognized and developed. In his view, a free human being is an individual who can understand their potential from a young age through a continuous process of growth into adulthood. However, the reality of education shows a gap between awareness of the importance of talent and the ability to recognize it concretely. Here, ‘normative awareness’ means students’ understanding of the general or accepted importance of knowing their abilities, while ‘reflective awareness’ refers to their personal, conscious recognition of their own talents. This study uses a descriptive, quantitative approach and a survey method, involving 78 second-semester students from three mathematics classes. The research instrument consists of 12 questions that measure perception and self-awareness related to talent. The research results show that all respondents (100%) stated the importance of knowing their talents from an early age, but all (100%) also admitted they did not know their talents for sure. These findings indicate a disjunction between normative awareness and reflective awareness within the students. Theoretically, this condition indicates a weak guidance process within the education system that has not yet helped students fully recognize their potential. This research provides important implications for the development of a more reflective, dialogical, and individual potential-exploration-oriented, student-centered education model

Abstract

This study aims to analyze kato malereng as a form of indirect speech ethics in maintaining dignity and social hierarchy within Minangkabau society. In Minangkabau culture, language functions not only as a means of communication but also as a system of values that regulates social relationships and preserves community harmony. This research employs a descriptive qualitative approach using a library research method to examine cultural communication practices within the kato nan ampek system. Data were collected through the analysis of relevant literature on communication ethics, cultural values, and the social structure of Minangkabau society and were analyzed using descriptive-interpretative techniques to identify the forms, functions, and social meanings of kato malereng. The findings indicate that kato malereng functions as a cultural communication mechanism that preserves dignity, prevents conflict, and strengthens social cohesion through the use of figurative and polite language. Despite adjustments in modern communication contexts, the values of politeness and respect embedded in kato malereng remain relevant as communication guidelines. Therefore, kato malereng represents a form of local wisdom that contributes to the preservation of cultural values and social stability in contemporary society.

Abstract

Modern divorce cases in Indonesia show a significant upward trend, with data from the Religious Courts recording 446,000 divorce cases in 2024. This phenomenon has a direct impact on the fulfillment of children's rights, particularly regarding child support, which is often understood only formally without considering the child's holistic interests. This article aims to analyze the concept of child support from the perspective of the maqasid sharia and its relevance to resolving modern divorce cases, with a focus on protecting the five main elements of maqasid. This research uses a qualitative approach with library research and analysis of court decisions. The analytical framework used is maqasid sharia, which serves as a surgical tool to evaluate existing child support practices. Research has found that child support under the Maqasid Sharia (Islamic law) is not limited to material support (food, clothing, and shelter), but encompasses the protection of five essential elements: religion (hifzh al-din), life (hifzh al-nafs), intellect (hifzh al-'aql), offspring (hifzh al-nasl), and property (hifzh al-mal). In the context of modern divorce, child support must ensure the continuity of education, psychological health, and the formation of a child's religious identity. This finding aligns with research by Zuhdi et al. (2024), which states that confiscating a husband's assets as a guarantee of child support provides benefits in the form of hifdz nafs (self-support) and hifdz aql (intellect). The Maqasid Sharia approach offers a more comprehensive and adaptive framework than the classical, textual approach of Islamic jurisprudence. This research recommends the need for Maqasid-based child support standards in the compilation of Islamic law and the strengthening of the capacity of judges and mediators in applying this approach in religious courts.
