Abstract

This study was designed to transform mathematics instruction into a more engaging and practical learning experience, emphasizing real-world applications. The primary objective was to enhance conceptual understanding and mathematical self-efficacy among Grade 11 senior high school students in Statistics and Probability during the 2021-2022 academic year's second quarter. The findings demonstrated that mathematical self-efficacy positively correlates with conceptual understanding, with high-efficacy students showing greater confidence and positive attitudes toward mathematics.

Abstract

Examining how Indonesia is implementing human rights under the 1945 Constitution is the aim of this journal. Human rights are basic freedoms that are innate to all people, eternal, and unalienable. No one, not even the state apparatus and government, is allowed to deny, curtail, or take away a person's human rights. Through a number of legal measures, the state has also guaranteed the protection of human rights, as stated in various sections of the 1945 Constitution. Indonesia is required to respect the principles of human rights as stated in the 1945 Constitution as a legitimate state. The purpose of the theory used is to describe the problem's quality and explanation using a qualitative method approach. According to the analysis, Indonesia's implementation of human rights is firmly based on the 1945 Constitution and the Rule of Law, which is consistent with the country's goals as a formal legal state and suggests that the state is dedicated to upholding human rights. The 1945 Constitution states that every person has the right to bodily and spiritual well-being in addition to human rights in the social, political, economic, cultural, educational, and religious spheres.

Abstract

This study explores the interplay of religious festivals, specifically Diwali and Eid, in shaping national and ethnic identity concepts within Indian society. The objective of this research was to analyse how Diwali, predominantly celebrated by Hindus, and Eid, central to the Muslim community, contribute to both national unity and ethnic distinctiveness in India. Using a qualitative comparative study approach, archival research and media content analysis were conducted to examine the broader socio-political narratives surrounding these festivals. Findings revealed that Diwali is closely tied to the construction of Hindu identity and is often intertwined with Indian national identity, promoting a sense of unity. Eid, on the other hand, reinforced ethnic and religious identity among Muslims, fostering community cohesion while simultaneously highlighting the complexities of belonging within the larger national framework. The study concludes that both Diwali and Eid play critical yet contrasting roles in shaping India’s multi-layered identity, with Diwali promoting a homogenizing national identity and Eid emphasizing religious distinctiveness.
