Abstract

Rice price volatility remains a critical challenge for food security and economic stability in Indonesia. This study examines the effect of the Gerakan Pangan Murah (GPM) on rice price volatility using provincial-level panel data with monthly observations from 2023 to 2024. To obtain consistent and unbiased estimates, this study employs a dynamic panel data approach using the Generalized Method of Moments (GMM), specifically the System GMM estimator, which addresses potential endogeneity and captures the persistence of price movements. The model incorporates key agricultural control variables, including rice production, rainfall, and the farmer terms of trade (NTP), representing supply conditions and farmer welfare. The results indicate that rice price volatility exhibits strong persistence over time. After controlling for endogeneity, GPM does not have a statistically significant effect on price volatility, suggesting that the program is more responsive to market conditions rather than functioning as an effective stabilization instrument. In contrast, rice production and rainfall significantly increase price volatility, while NTP tends to reduce it, although with weaker statistical significance. These findings imply that structural factors play a more dominant role than short-term policy interventions in shaping rice price dynamics in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study examined the shift in teachers' pedagogical authority in the era of generative artificial intelligence (AI) from the perspective of educational quality management. The research was motivated by the increasing use of generative AI by students in learning activities, which not only supports academic tasks but also challenges teachers’ roles, academic integrity, and learning quality. A systematic literature review was conducted using a structured article selection process. Data were collected from 13 reputable scientific articles published between 2023 and 2025 and analyzed through thematic coding. The findings indicate that students primarily use generative AI for academic writing, information retrieval, content comprehension, problem-solving, coding, and multimodal content production. Teachers’ pedagogical authority has shifted from being the main knowledge source to roles including ethical guidance, AI literacy mentorship, information validation, authentic assessment design, collaboration facilitation, and risk management in digital learning. The implications suggest that educational quality in the AI era heavily depends on teachers and institutions managing AI use critically and responsibly. Generative AI can enhance personalized learning, access to information, learning effectiveness, and collaboration; however, without pedagogical oversight, it may increase dependency, weaken cognitive processes, and threaten academic integrity.

Abstract

Rahn financing in Islamic microfinance institutions is exposed to various risks that may affect institutional operational stability, including financing risk, operational risk, liquidity risk, and Sharia compliance risk. This study aims to analyze the risk mitigation strategies implemented in rahn financing at BMT NU East Java, Klampis Branch, Bangkalan. The study is motivated by the need for effective risk management to maintain financing quality and minimize the occurrence of non-performing financing. This research employed a qualitative approach using a case study method. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation and analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model, which consists of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The analysis was further supported by NVivo 12 Pro software to facilitate systematic data coding and categorization. The findings indicate that the primary risks in rahn financing include financing risk (credit risk), operational risk, liquidity risk, and Sharia compliance risk. Risk mitigation efforts are carried out through the implementation of the 5C+1S principles (Character, Capacity, Capital, Collateral, Condition of Economy, and Sharia Compliance), conservative collateral valuation, periodic monitoring, and a persuasive family-oriented approach. Collateral execution is applied as a last resort in resolving non-performing financing. These strategies have proven effective in reducing risks and maintaining institutional stability. The study also reveals that social and family-based approaches constitute a distinctive characteristic of risk mitigation practices in BMTs as Islamic microfinance institutions.

Abstract

Sumedang Regency has great potential for developing tracking-based sport tourism due to its mountainous geography and improved regional connectivity through the construction of the Cisumdawu Toll Road. However, the management of this sport tourism has not been well integrated, particularly in terms of hiking trail management, facilities, and community participation. This study aims to explore the phenomenon of tracking in Sumedang through the MSP+DM (Man, Sport, Place, and Destination Management) approach to identify the most potential mountains, provide recommendations for superior tracking destinations, identify optimal facilities, and formulate strategies to increase tourist visits. This study employed a qualitative approach with a phenomenological design, focusing on three tracking destinations in Sumedang Regency, namely Mount Manglayang, Mount Kerenceng, and Mount Tampomas. Informants consisted of hikers, guides, trail managers, and tourism officials. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation, and subsequently analyzed using the Moustakas phenomenological model. The findings reveal that Mount Manglayang excels in marketability and accessibility, Mount Kerenceng demonstrates strengths in sustainability through strong community participation, while Mount Tampomas stands out in visitor participation and the preservation of local cultural values. These findings indicate that the development of sport tourism in Sumedang should prioritize strengthening digital promotion, improving environmentally friendly facilities, and enhancing collaboration among local communities, tracking organizations, and government stakeholders. This study contributes to expanding the understanding of phenomenology-based sport tourism in Indonesia and provides an empirical foundation for the development of sustainable eco-sport tourism destinations.

Abstract

This study was motivated by the need to develop innovative instructional media that integrate character education with digital technology at the elementary school level. A digital comic based on the Restitution Triangle was designed to address students' limited critical reasoning skills and low learning autonomy, which often rely on external control. By presenting reflective restitution-based scenarios, the media encourages students to evaluate their actions and develop intrinsic motivation for learning. This study aimed to develop a digital comic that meets the criteria of validity, practicality, and effectiveness in improving the critical reasoning skills and independent character of fifth-grade students at SDN 4 Terara. The study employed a Research and Development (R&D) approach using the 4D model (Define, Design, Develop, and Disseminate). Data were collected through expert validation, user response questionnaires, and field testing using a pretest-posttest control group design. The findings indicate that the developed media is highly valid, highly practical, and significantly effective in enhancing students' critical reasoning and independence, as confirmed by the t-test results (p = 0.001 < 0.05). Therefore, the Restitution Triangle-based digital comic is a feasible and effective instructional medium for fostering the Pancasila Student Profile through a reflective positive discipline approach.

Abstract

This study examines the existence and perception of the Acehnese people regarding the mythical phrase bek ria that, a prohibition against expressing excessive pleasure or joy. There is an urgent need to examine this research because of the gap between culture, which should be a source of welfare in life, and the meaning of this myth, which seems to prohibit happiness. This study aims to describe the existence and perception of the Acehnese people regarding the bek ria that myth. The approach used is a mixed methods approach with an ethnographic method, where data is collected through questionnaires, participatory observation, and in-depth interviews. The results of the study show that the myth of bek ria that is a sentence that has consequences for not being done by others. The existence of this myth in society is as a social heritage, a normal integration mechanism, and a collective representation. In addition, the study also shows a decline in understanding of the meaning of this myth among the younger generation in Aceh. This study also shows a shift in conception from magical beliefs to rationality. In addition, the religious discourse in this myth also makes it acceptable and perpetuated by society. It is very significant because it provides scientific contributions to social-cultural studies, psychology, and collective beliefs.
