Abstract

Background. Educational organizations increasingly operate within complex and dynamic environments that demand not only effectiveness but also long-term organizational sustainability. Despite this condition, communication in educational institutions is often treated instrumentally as a managerial tool, rather than as a constitutive process that sustains organizational coherence, learning, and ethical legitimacy. This limitation is particularly evident in Islamic educational organizations, where bureaucratic structures, cultural hierarchies, and normative values intersect. Purpose. This article aims to reconceptualize communication as the lifeblood of Islamic educational organizations by integrating systems theory and sensemaking theory. It seeks to provide a theoretical framework that positions communication as a central sustainability mechanism enabling organizational integration, adaptive capacity, and meaning construction. Method. This study employs a conceptual and theoretical analysis through critical synthesis of systems theory, organizational sensemaking theory, and Islamic communication ethics. Relevant literature from organizational communication, educational leadership, and Islamic education studies is systematically examined to develop an integrative conceptual framework. Results. The analysis demonstrates that communication functions as the primary integrative flow connecting organizational subsystems, facilitating feedback loops, and enabling collective sensemaking. Within Islamic educational organizations, communicative principles such as shura (consultative deliberation), amanah (trust and responsibility), and an-na???ah (ethical counsel) operate as ethical sensemaking practices that strengthen organizational coherence and sustainability. Conclusion. The analysis shows that communication functions as a key integrative flow connecting organizational subsystems, facilitating feedback, and enabling collective sensemaking. In Islamic educational organizations, communicative principles such as shura (deliberation), amanah (trust and responsibility), and an-na???ah (ethical advice) operate as ethical sensemaking practices that strengthen organizational coherence and sustainability.

Abstract

Background. The rapid increase in global waste generation has intensified environmental degradation, resource depletion, and public health risks, highlighting the urgent need for more effective and sustainable waste management systems. Conventional linear waste management approaches have proven insufficient in addressing these challenges, thereby accelerating interest in circular economy frameworks that emphasize waste reduction, reuse, and resource recovery. Purpose. This study aims to analyze recent advancements in waste management technologies and evaluate their roles in supporting circular economy strategies for effective waste reduction and material recovery. Method. The research employs a qualitative–quantitative mixed-methods approach, integrating a systematic review of peer-reviewed literature, analysis of secondary statistical data, and comparative case studies of advanced waste management systems implemented in urban and industrial contexts. Results. The findings indicate that technologies such as anaerobic digestion, advanced recycling systems, waste-to-energy conversion, and digital waste monitoring significantly enhance resource recovery rates and reduce landfill dependency. The results also demonstrate that the integration of technological innovation with policy support and stakeholder collaboration strengthens the overall effectiveness of circular waste management systems. Conclusion. The study concludes that advancements in waste management technologies play a pivotal role in operationalizing circular economy principles, contributing to environmental sustainability, economic efficiency, and long-term resource security. Strategic alignment between technology, governance, and behavioral change is essential to maximize the impact of circular waste management initiatives.

Abstract

Background. Mathematical problem-solving requires complex cognitive processes that integrate reasoning, executive function, and emotional regulation. Persistent gaps in students’ performance suggest that conventional instructional approaches often fail to align with the brain’s natural learning mechanisms. Purpose. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of Brain-Based Learning (BBL) in optimizing mathematical problem-solving skills from a neuro-pedagogical perspective. Method. A quasi-experimental pretest–posttest control group design was employed involving 64 Grade 8 students divided into experimental and control groups. The intervention was conducted over eight weeks and integrated neuroscience-informed strategies emphasizing emotional safety, multisensory engagement, distributed practice, and metacognitive reflection. Data were collected through validated problem-solving tests, working memory assessments, and mathematics anxiety questionnaires. Results. Inferential statistical analyses revealed significant improvements in problem-solving performance in the experimental group compared to the control group (p < 0.001), with large effect sizes. Working memory capacity increased and mathematics anxiety significantly decreased among students exposed to Brain-Based Learning strategies. The findings indicate that neuro-aligned instructional design enhances both cognitive processing and affective readiness, leading to substantial gains in higher-order mathematical reasoning. Conclusion. The study concludes that Brain-Based Learning provides an evidence-based pedagogical framework capable of optimizing mathematical problem-solving performance in contemporary classrooms.

Abstract

Siganus canaliculatus represents a commercially important herbivorous reef fish with promising potential for aquaculture development in eastern Indonesia. Sustainable domestication requires comprehensive understanding of population genetic structure and morphological variability to ensure adaptive capacity and broodstock quality. This study aimed to characterize the genetic diversity and morphometric variation of S. canaliculatus populations in the Makassar Strait and Bone Bay as a scientific basis for domestication strategies. A comparative cross-sectional design was applied using mitochondrial DNA (COI) analysis and geometric morphometric techniques. A total of 102 specimens were sampled from both regions. Genetic diversity indices, fixation index (F_ST), analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA), principal component analysis (PCA), and discriminant function analysis (DFA) were performed. Results revealed moderate genetic diversity in both populations with significant genetic differentiation (F_ST = 0.118; p < 0.01). Morphometric analyses demonstrated clear shape divergence, particularly in body depth and head proportion, with 78.4% classification accuracy between populations. Concordance between genetic and phenotypic structuring indicates partial connectivity combined with local adaptation. These findings provide an integrative baseline for region-based broodstock selection and support sustainable domestication programs while maintaining genetic diversity and adaptive potential.
