From this explanation, it can be concluded that cognitive disputation using Sholawat Burdah is effective in alleviating a student's stress.]]>

<![CDATA[This study aims to analyze the needs and strategies for developing Papuan context-based literacy teaching materials in preparation for the National Computer-Based Assessment (ANBK). Following a systematic literature review method, this study analyzed journal articles, reference books, policy documents and research reports published in the 2019-2024 timeframe. The results showed three main findings: (1) the condition of literacy in Papua requires a socio-cultural context-based approach, not just technical reading and writing skills; (2) the implementation of ANBK in the 3T (Frontier, Outermost, Left Behind) areas of Papua faces specific challenges related to technological infrastructure, teacher readiness, and student understanding of the context of the questions; (3) the development of effective teaching materials needs to integrate three aspects, namely the local context that accommodates Papuan cultural wisdom, pedagogical approaches that support learning independence, and a continuous formative evaluation system. This study recommends the development of teaching materials that integrate national curriculum standards with local Papuan contexts to increase the effectiveness of ANBK preparation.]]>

<![CDATA[Conflict and culture are two inseparable elements in the history of human civilization. Throughout history, conflict has often emerged as a result of differences in values, ideologies, and interests, but culture has often been a bridge that has made peace possible. This study aims to explore the relationship between conflict and culture, and to analyze how culture can act as a tool for transforming conflict into sustainable peace. The method used in this writing is qualitative analysis with a historical and sociological approach. Data were collected from various academic literature, case studies, and relevant historical documents. The results of the writing show that culture has an important role in creating cross-group understanding, building dialogue, and creating empathy. Elements such as art, tradition, language, and universal values are often effective media in reducing tensions. Case studies of conflicts in various regions show that culture-based initiatives, such as cultural diplomacy, collective art, and cross-cultural education programs, have a positive impact on reducing conflict and building peace. The implication of this research is the need to strengthen the role of culture in diplomacy and conflict resolution efforts. Global policies that are more oriented towards cultural dialogue can be a key strategy for creating harmony amidst diversity.]]>
