Prita Nur Audya, Dimas Surya Febriansyah — Sat, 29 Mar 2025 00:00:00 +0700

The development of contemporary Islamic education teaching methodology requires a strong basis of authoritative sources. Hadith, as one of the main sources of law in Islam, has great potential to influence the way of teaching and learning in the modern era. However, the application of hadith in today's teaching methodology is often less systematically integrated. The Quran is the second source of Islamic teachings after the Quran, and it contains many values and guidelines that can be applied in various aspects of life, including in the education field. Hadith itself is terminologically everything that comes from the good prophets' words, Acting, and silence takrir.

The method used is a literature study with qualitative analysis of relevant hadis, as well as case studies on the application of hadis in teaching methodology in several Islamic education institutions with data obtained from hadis text, interpretation books, and academic journals. An analysis was done to identify the principal principles and examples of hadis application in the teaching context. Results of the research show that hadith can provide a strong theoretical foundation for the methodology of teaching contemporary Islamic education. The integration of hadith in teaching not only enriches the teaching material but also forms the character and values of Islam in the students. Systematic and structured approaches in the application of hadith can increase the effectiveness and relevance of teaching in the modern era.

However, long before that, the concept of a growth mindset had long been introduced in Islamic religious studies, both implied in the Qur'an, hadith, and ancient books written by Islamic scholars of the past such as Imam al Ghazali. The topic of growth mindset in Islamic religious studies is interesting to study considering the rich literature of Islamic religious studies that has existed since ancient times. This study explores the concept of a growth mindset in Islamic religious studies. This study uses a library research method, namely collecting data through studies and understanding theories from various literature such as books, journals, and previous research relevant to the research topic. Data were collected by searching for and filtering literature related to the growth mindset in Islamic religious studies. The collected data were then analyzed critically to find patterns, relationships, and implications to achieve a comprehensive understanding of the growth mindset in Islamic religious studies. The results of the study show that in Islamic religious studies, the concept of a growth mindset is explained in various ways, such as teachings about the importance of self-development but still does not eliminate the role of God in the process. A growth mindset sees failure as an opportunity to learn and improve oneself, in line with Islamic teachings that emphasize the importance of effort, patience, and lifelong learning. This study is expected to revive Islamic religious thoughts and studies in the global scientific realm. In this regard, research on the convergence of Islam and positive psychology needs to be done a lot.

Jami al-Kutub al-Tis'ah Application: Solution to Resolving Takhrij al-Hadith and Implications for Hadith Students

Khaerul Umam — Sun, 30 Mar 2025 00:00:00 +0700

The Jami al-Kutub al-Tis'ah application is one of the software programs that can be applied to smartphone. This digital platform is specifically designed for tracking a hadith (Takhrij Hadith) and tracking the quality of each narrator of the hadith, known as external analysis (Naqd al-Khariji). So that, the total of all the editorials of the hadith studied will be easily found in al-Kutub al-Tis’ah (Sahih al-Bukhari, Sahih al-Muslim, Jami al-Tirmidzi, Sunan al-Nasai, Sunan Abi Dawud, Sunan Ibnu Majah, Musnad Ahmad, Muawata Malik, Musnad al-Darimi). In addition, the quality of the narrator of the hadith can be easily tracked from various references to the Rijalul Hadith book, so that the hadith in question can be concluded in terms of its quality (Dhaif, Hasan, Sahih). Besides to having convenience and fast time efficiency, for the fact Jami al-Kutub al-Tis’ah application can pose its own challenges for its users (Hadith Academics). Because, this application will make its users feel comfortable which result in dependency. As a result, today many students of hadith science are reluctant to look directly at the source books (primary). It is undeniable that the emergence of laziness among students is caused by the sophistication of the application which can find out the page, volume, and even the number of hadith obtained from the original source. Therefore, this study aims to find out how the Jami al-Kutub al-Tis’ah application works, and to analyze the extent of the implications of using the application for hadith students. The method used in this study uses an analysis system aimed at the Jami al-Kutub al-Tis’ah application and will be elaborated with library research to field research. The results show that the presence of the Jami al-Kutub al-Tis’ah application brings two opposing poles, namely opportunities and challenges. The opportunities from the application can be used as a solution to find the quality of hadith and completion of takhrij hadith tasks easily. While the challenges will arise from excessive use, and the application is used as an authoritative source, causing students not to see or review the hadith they are studying (to turats). Therefore, the application of Jami al-Kutub al-Tis’ah is like a double-edged sword, which can have positive effects as well as negative impacts.

A Case Study on Recidivism in Indonesia: Understanding the Role of Inadequate Self-Control

Sun, 30 Mar 2025 00:00:00 +0700

Recidivism is a phenomenon caused and influenced by a multitude of factors. In this study, we interviewed four former prisoners who received parole and were previously incarcerated more than once for property crimes and substance-related offences. Semi-structured interviews with these four participants were afterwards analysed thematically. This qualitative study aims to understand how inadequate self-control influences the decision to reoffend, guided by the General Theory of Crime. We found that indicators of inadequate self-control were apparent in participants’ statements; among six indicators, impulsivity and self-centeredness in particular appear to significantly affect reoffending committed by the participants. Poor self-control tends to make participants ignore the potential consequences and long-term risks of their behaviour. We are hoping that this study could inform policy-making processes related to prisoner reintegration in order to minimise reoffending. This study could also serve as an early finding that can inspire more comprehensive studies using the General Theory of Crime on prisoner studies in Indonesia.

Microbiota, particularly gut microbiota, plays a crucial role in maintaining human health and influencing disease pathogenesis. Microbiota consists of a collection of microorganisms living in the human body, with essential functions in metabolic processes, nutrient breakdown, and metabolite production that contribute to homeostasis and immune balance. Microbiota imbalance (dysbiosis) can lead to health disorders such as infections and autoimmune diseases. This article evaluates various related studies to understand how gut microbiota interacts with the immune system and maintains human health using the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method and Meta-Analysis of journals on gut microbiota published in Sinta 3 and 4 reputable journals from 2022 to 2024. This research emphasizes the importance of microbiota in disease prevention and maintaining immune system balance while providing insights into future research directions in this field. Gut microbiota not only functions within the gastrointestinal tract but also has extra-intestinal impacts, such as on the immune system, metabolism, and neurology. Dysbiosis can lead to health issues like metabolic syndrome, inflammatory bowel disease, and autoimmune disorders. Factors influencing microbiota composition include diet, antibiotic use, and environmental factors. Microbiota also affects the immune system by modulating T cells and cytokine production, which are vital for maintaining immune balance and preventing excessive inflammatory responses. Recent studies highlight the role of microbiota in preventing allergies, supporting immune system development, and influencing conditions such as asthma and food allergies. The use of probiotics and prebiotics, along with other dietary interventions, has been shown to help maintain microbiota balance and support overall body health. This article aims to enhance knowledge about microbiota and its benefits for health, including aspects like digestion, immunity, mental health, and well-being.

Placebo Effect in Matter of Contemporary Self-Reward

Sun, 06 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0700

This article underlines matter of placebo effect in self-reward done by youngsters in recent days. Contemporary self-reward is seen as a form of self-love to appreciate any hard work done by someone. It is being spread by social media that tend to give various examples of this action. The self-reward is done as actualization of me-time, relaxation, shopping, and even going abroad. However, that self-love is not essential since it only reflects matter of psychological illusions as seen in placebo effect. In analysis, through qualitative method and explorative approach, this paper accentuates that self-reward is such placebo effect. It may give relaxation, but it is only illusion since the main idea is to spend more and to be more consumptive. It only works as coincidences and suggestions that will promote more endorphin hormone, but not as the main love itself. In conclusion, self-reward as placebo effect may only work in surface as perceptions, but not as the essential point of self-indication in matter of love.

The Phenomenon of Dukhan From the Perspective of Islam (Qur'an, Hadith) and Science

Mon, 07 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0700

The phenomenon of dukhan is an important phenomenon to know, especially by Muslims who believe in the existence of doomsday, where one of the signs is the appearance of dukhon. This study aims to determine the relationship between Islam and science in discussing the phenomenon of dukhan itself. This research is a study that uses qualitative data analysis methods with literature study methods based on literature review. The results showed that the phenomenon of dukhan in the perspective of the Qur'an is related to the process of forming the universe that used to happen when there was a big bang that caused smoke or fog, as a sign of the coming of doomsday. In addition, dukhan is also directed as a punishment to people who are careless in carrying out their obligations as servants in the world. In the perspective of Hadith, dukhan is a sign of the coming of the Day of Judgment, which gives a sense of distress and pain to humans at the end of time. From a scientific perspective, the phenomenon of dukhan is a smoke or fog that occurred in the past and will occur in the future. In the past, it was associated with the creation of the universe where there was a large explosion that produced gas throughout the solar system. In the view of science in the future, the phenomenon of dukhan will occur when the earth is filled with pollution, environmental pollution, and human actions that damage nature so that the earth can no longer take the burden of life. Thus, there is a similarity between the Islamic point of view and the scientific review. Thus, after knowing how the phenomenon of dukhon, it is hoped that we can increase our faith in Allah SWT, and always try to preserve nature.

How Stereotypes are Formed: The Discontents of Syntagmatic and Paradigmatic Relations in Cultural Models

Mon, 07 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0700

This paper investigates the intertwinements between stereotypes alongside syntagmatic and paradigmatic relations in the sense of cultural models. Stereotypes have long been known as labels that unilaterally applied towards people including minorities. However, the stereotypes are not ex nihilo, but rational since those involve linguistic ideas between syntagmatic and paradigmatic relations. Through qualitative method and explorative approach, analysis of this paper includes how both syntagmatic and paradigmatic relations by Ferdinand de Saussure work altogether with cultural models by James Paul Gee in shaping stereotypes. Linguistic meanings play more into matter of shifting paradigm that correlates with ideas of cultural thoughts. It is the shifting paradigm of identities that moves the unique label into such stereotypes; bringing havoc to those who are labelled inside. In conclusion, cultural models work through linguistic matters in the senses of syntagmatic and paradigmatic meanings in the sense of identities that may worsen the contexts of stereotypes beyond their literal conceptions.

Lutfianto Lutfianto, Fahmy Lukman, Abdul Munip, Maharsi Maharsi — Mon, 07 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0700

This research aims to explain the denotative and connotative meaning of the signs contained in the Wayang Kekayon Khalifah paraga Hudzaifah bin Yaman. Therefore, a qualitative approach is needed in this research. Data was obtained through interpretation of text and images on the wayang appearance. Furthermore, Barthes' theory about the relationship between signifier and signified called "staggered systems" is applied in this case. According to Barthes, the two levels are denotation and connotation. Connotation is defined as the meaning attributed to an image beyond the obvious level of denotation. Meanwhile, denotation is defined as the first and simplest level of meaning of an image. The results of this research show the connotative meaning through the text and images contained in the Wayang Kekayon Khalifah paraga Hudzaifah bin Yaman. The findings of this research are, firstly, images and text as signs contain two meanings (connotative and denotative) in referring to certain objects. Second, the connotative meaning of the sign is analogous to the denotative meaning. Third, signs in the form of visuals are more dominant than signs that appear in text.

Generative AI as a Catalyst for Sustainable Learning: Proposing an Adaptive Pedagogical Strategy

FX. Risang Baskara — Mon, 07 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0700

This paper proposes an innovative adaptive pedagogical strategy that leverages Generative AI to catalyse sustainable learning outcomes in higher education. As educational technology continues to evolve, the integration of AI presents unprecedented opportunities to enhance long-term knowledge retention and skill development. However, current pedagogical approaches often fall short of achieving genuinely sustainable learning. This research addresses this gap by exploring the potential of Generative AI to create personalised, adaptive learning experiences that promote deep understanding and continuous growth. The study develops a conceptual framework synthesising sustainable learning theories, adaptive learning models, and AI-enhanced personalised learning concepts. Building on this foundation, we present a detailed adaptive pedagogical strategy that integrates Generative AI capabilities to identify learning patterns, generate tailored content, and adapt to individual student needs in real-time. Theoretical implementation scenarios across STEM education, language learning, and critical thinking skills development demonstrate the strategy's versatility and potential impact. Expected outcomes include improved long-term retention, enhanced transfer of knowledge, and increased learner autonomy. The paper discusses implications for educational practice, including necessary shifts in teaching methodologies and professional development needs. While acknowledging current technological constraints and the need for empirical validation, this research contributes to the growing field of AI in education. It offers a promising approach to fostering sustainable learning outcomes in the digital age.

Bintang Muhammad Sahara Efendi, I Dewa Putu Eskasasnanda — Tue, 08 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0700

Various problems arise from the implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum in various subjects, including Social Studies. This study explores the problems of implementing the Merdeka Curriculum in Social Studies learning through the systematic literature review (SLR) method. Researchers reviewed various literature to identify the challenges faced in implementing this curriculum in schools. The results of the study indicate that teachers' readiness and understanding of the Merdeka Curriculum are still limited, with many teachers having difficulty applying curriculum concepts, especially in evaluation and learning planning.

Yuni Widya Yanti, Lailatul Hidayati, Ade Risfal Huda — Tue, 08 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0700

This study aims to identify and analyze character development among students through art performance activities at Madrasah Ibtidaiyah Al-Hikmah. A qualitative research method with a descriptive approach was employed, involving observation, interviews, and document analysis. Research subjects included students, teachers, and parents. This study supports a holistic educational approach, emphasizing not only academic aspects but also students' character development and soft skills. The findings reveal that art performances contribute significantly to students’ character-building through four stages: planning, organizing, executing, and controlling, using four habituation methods by fostering discipline, applying rewards and penalties, utilizing the school environment to nurture solidarity, and setting examples. Out of 18 character values identified, 8 were specifically developed through these activities: religious, disciplined, hardworking, creative, independent, patriotic, friendly/communicative, and responsible. However, challenges remain, originating from both internal and external factors; internal factors arise within individuals and the school itself, while external factors come from outside influences. This research illustrates that art performances serve not only as an artistic expression venue but also as an essential tool in character development, from preparation and execution to post-activity reflection. Recognizing the positive impact of art activities on student character, schools can design and integrate these activities into the curriculum, which has the potential to enhance the overall quality of education.

Analysis of Indonesia’s Position in the 2023 Logistics Performance Index

M. Mujiya Ulkhaq, Trisna Nagris Pratiwi — Wed, 09 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0700

The Logistics Performance Index (LPI) is an indicator for measuring the performance of the logistics sector, developed by the World Bank since 2007 and widely accepted globally. The LPI is based on surveys conducted with logistics professionals about their perceptions of a country's logistics performance. There are six indicators in the LPI: customs, infrastructure, international shipments, logistics quality, tracking and tracing, and timeliness. The LPI score is derived from these six indicators using principal component analysis. This study explains the LPI and Indonesia's position in the latest 2023 LPI. In the 2023 Logistics Performance Index (LPI), Indonesia dropped 17 spots to rank 63rd out of 139 countries. This represents a decline from its 2018 position at 46th, with a decrease in score from 3.15 to 3.0. The areas where Indonesia faced the most significant performance drops were in "Timeliness" and "Tracking & Tracing," both crucial for efficient logistics operations. Indonesia's fall contrasts with several ASEAN neighbors that made improvements, such as the Philippines (which climbed 13 places to rank 43), Malaysia (up to 31), and Singapore, which advanced to the top of the global ranking. Analysts highlight that Indonesia's logistics issues stem from regulatory inefficiencies, infrastructure gaps, and operational delays. Improvements are needed in areas such as infrastructure development, logistics management, and better integration with global supply chains. Efforts to address these challenges, including the implementation of the National Logistics Ecosystem (NLE), aim to simplify logistics processes and enhance the country's performance in future LPI rankings. In addition, experts suggest that improving regulatory frameworks, upgrading infrastructure, and streamlining operational processes could help Indonesia enhance its logistics performance in the future. There is also ongoing discussion about the need for better coordination and investment in logistics technology.

Nurhidayah Nurhidayah, Ahmad Ubaydi Hasbillah — Thu, 10 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0700

The marginalisation of women in various aspects of life, including social, cultural, educational and political, often stems from interpretations that undermine their value and role. In the context of Islamic thought, there are interpretations of hadith that suggest the limitation of women's roles to the domestic sphere. This study aims to explore how neuroscience can provide a new perspective in interpreting hadith regarding husband-wife relations, as well as question whether neurological structures can support this understanding of gender roles. The method applied is a qualitative approach through literature study, by analysing the hadith in terms of sharah, takhrij, and criticism of the sanad and matan of the hadith., as well as critique of relevant neuroscience literature. The results show that the structure of the female brain, which has a larger corpus callosum, supports communication and collaboration abilities, making women effective in the role of housewives. In contrast, men's more responsibility-focussed brain structures reflect their role as family leaders. Using neuroscience as a tool to understand hadith, the study concludes that an accurate understanding of the husband-wife relationship can reduce negative perceptions and marginalisation of women. In addition, if couples understand each other's brain functions, a harmonious family will be created.

Scientific Literacy in Islamic Schools: Harmonizing Religious Values and Scientific Knowledge

Mon, 14 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0700

The integration of scientific literacy within Islamic schools presents unique challenges and opportunities as educators strive to balance religious values with modern scientific knowledge. This article explores how Islamic schools harmonize these two aspects to provide a holistic educational experience. Data from the study indicate that 75% of teachers incorporate scientific literacy into their curriculum, yet only 52% of students feel adequately instructed in science. Major challenges include reconciling scientific theories, such as evolution, with traditional Islamic teachings. To address these challenges, educators use strategies like contextual learning, where Qur'anic verses are linked with scientific principles, and inquiry-based learning, which encourages student exploration and critical thinking. Despite the benefits of these approaches, teachers face significant obstacles, including a lack of professional development and community resistance. 65% of educators report encountering opposition from parents when controversial scientific topics are taught. However, students express a desire for more hands-on experiments and real-world applications, with 68% believing that these methods would enhance their understanding of science in an Islamic context. This study highlights the need for comprehensiveteacher training and greater community engagement to successfully integrate scientific literacy while maintaining Islamic values, ensuring that students are equipped for the complexities of modern scientific challenges without compromising their faith.

Glucose is a monosaccharide that is the energy source and controls vital activities in the body. Therefore, continuous glucose level monitoring is needed to know the representation of the body's condition. A commonly used method for monitoring is the SPCE biosensor for practical and economical reasons. The effectiveness of SPCE biosensor performance is determined by its constituent materials, so this research was conducted to determine how the graphene synthesis process from empty oil palm bunches (EOPB) and its application to SPCE can affect the performance of glucose biosensors. Graphene was chosen based on its superior characteristics, while EOPB was used as raw material because of its content such as lignin and cellulose, and its abundant availability. This research is quantitative-experimental with the object, EOPB. Graphene synthesis was carried out using the liquid phase exfoliation (LPE) method while electrode printing on the biosensor using the drop-casting method. The results of the characterization of graphene synthesis with SEM-EDS show a layer of graphene sheets with a single-layer hexagonal planar structure with an average distribution size of small particles, 0.023 ± 0.019 µm. The distribution of elements in graphene synthesis is dominated by carbon, which is 52.1%, indicating the existence of carbon allotrope, namely graphene. The performance of the SPCE biosensor was tested using amperemetry technique with three variations of graphene concentration (P1, P2, and P3) and two variations of glucose solution concentration (L1 and L2). The test results showed a positive relationship between increasing the concentration of graphene and glucose solution with the strong electric current produced, indicating that the SPCE biosensor is stable and good at reading electric current.

Lina Af’ida Fataya Helwa, Zakiyatul Fakhiroh — Tue, 15 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0700

Conflict and violence, and even war, continue to characterize various regions of the world. In Indonesia, various conflicts have occurred, including the Ambon and Maluku conflicts, the Poso conflict, the Bali bombings by terrorism, and other conflicts with religious undertones. As a multicultural country, Indonesia often experiences intercultural tensions and conflicts that affect social harmony. This research aims to explain the role of Peace Education and Religious Moderation according to Buya Syafi'i, a prominent figure known for his contributions to religious plurality in Indonesia. This study is a library research that relies on literature sources. The conclusion of this article is that in a multicultural society, it is essential to have multicultural understanding and awareness that respects differences, diversity, and a willingness to interact with others fairly. A moderate attitude in religion, with a humanistic approach, is needed—one that recognizes the existence of others, upholds tolerance, respects differing opinions, and refrains from imposing one’s views through violence. Additionally, enhancing Islamic education within the framework of peace education plays an important role in fostering tolerance.

Reproductive Rights and Childfree in Islamic Law: A Juridical and Social Analysis

Abdul Rahman Ramadhan — Tue, 15 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0700

This research aims to identify and define the concept of reproductive rights in Islamic law, analyze Islamic legal views on childfree decisions and examine the social implications of childfree decisions. Reproductive rights are an important part of human rights that include the right to make free and responsible decisions regarding the number, spacing and timing of children. However, in the context of Islamic law, the decision not to have children can give rise to a variety of complex legal and social interpretations. The trend of going childfree is increasing in many countries, including Muslim-majority countries. This decision is often influenced by various factors such as economics, health, and personal preference. However, in Muslim societies, this decision can conflict with traditional norms that encourage marriage and childbearing. This research uses a qualitative approach with literature review data literature review. The results of this research show that reproductive rights are recognized in Islamic law, although there are variations in interpretation regarding their limits and application. The decision to go childfree is acceptable within the framework of Islamic law if it is based on valid reasons and does not contradict the principles of sharia. However, the social perception and stigmatization of this decision remains a challenge in many Muslim communities. This research can make an important contribution to the understanding of reproductive rights and childfree decisions in the context of Islamic law. The results of this research are expected to help reduce social stigma towards individuals who choose not to have children and encourage the development of more inclusive and evidence-based policies in Muslim-majority countries, especially Indonesia.

Alda Maharani — Tue, 15 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0700

Religious moderation is an important concept in maintaining harmony amidst the diversity of religious thoughts and practices, especially in Islamic higher education environments. The existence of various Islamic mass organizations (ormas) with diverse ideologies, such as Nahdlatul Ulama, Muhammadiyah, and other organizations, presents its own challenges for creating an inclusive and harmonious academic environment. This study aims to examine the challenges and opportunities faced by Islamic higher education institutions in managing differences in mass organizations, as well as how the application of religious moderation can play a role in creating harmony among students. Through a qualitative method with a case study approach, this study found that although ideological differences between mass organizations have the potential to cause polarization and conflict, this diversity can also be a source of intellectual wealth and encourage a more inclusive interfaith discourse. Other opportunities that emerge are increasing tolerance, cooperation between mass organizations, and developing students' delicate aptitudes in managing differences. Thus, Islamic higher education institutions have a strategic role in developing religious moderation through inclusive and dialogical policies, in order to strengthen harmony and build a dynamic and tolerant academic culture.

Development of Chemistry Teaching Materials: Boundless Creativity in Transforming Recycled Materials into Innovative 3D Atomic Models

Tue, 15 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0700

Chemistry education, particularly in teaching atomic concepts, often faces challenges in visualizing abstract ideas. This study aims to develop three-dimensional atomic models using recycled materials to represent the theories of Dalton, Thomson, Rutherford, and Bohr, while also exploring the potential integration of environmental education within chemistry learning. This research employs an exploratory approach through prototype development, involving six chemistry education students and one instructor. The development process consists of three stages: preparation (literature review and materials collection), prototype development (construction of four atomic models), and evaluation (internal assessment and refinement). The study resulted in four distinct three-dimensional atomic models: Dalton's model uses a 15 cm black plastic ball, Thomson's model incorporates a blue ball with red electrons, Rutherford's model features a wire system with 17 electron caps, and Bohr's model combines styrofoam and aluminum wire to visualize layered orbitals. Analysis indicates that recycled materials can be effectively utilized to create both informative and aesthetically appealing teaching media, while also supporting sustainability principles in education. The main challenge lies in balancing representational accuracy with material limitations, yet this can be addressed through creative material selection and processing. This study contributes to the development of affordable and eco-friendly chemistry learning media, promoting the integration of sustainability values in science education.

Urip Tri Wijayanti — Tue, 15 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0700

Adolescents have an important role in shaping the future of a country. In reality, adolescents cannot avoid risky behavior. In North Sulawesi Province, based on the results of SKAP 2019, as many as 4.8 percent of adolescents have been involved in premarital sexual relations. This study aims to identify adolescents' knowledge about women's fertile period. This research is a quantitative study that applies a cross-sectional design and utilizes secondary data from the 2019 Program Accountability Performance Survey (SKAP) of North Sulawesi Province. Respondents in this study were unmarried adolescents aged 10-24 years. The results of the enumeration obtained 988 adolescents, with details of 546 men and the remaining 442 women. The dependent variable was the knowledge of adolescents about the female fertile period, the independent variables were age, residence and education. Variables were analyzed univariately and bivariate. The results showed that in general, adolescents in North Sulawesi province did not have good knowledge about the fertile period in women. Female adolescents have a higher percentage of knowledge about the fertile period of women than male adolescents, then the higher the age of men the better the knowledge about the fertile period of women. By region, adolescents in urban areas, both male and female, have higher knowledge about fertile period than those in rural areas. Finally, at the education level, male and female adolescents at the elementary and junior high school education levels had lower knowledge about the fertile period in women compared to high school and college education. The recommendation is to increase education about female childbearing period widely among adolescents and improve accessibility to health services in rural adolescents with high school education and below.

Internalization Of Values in The Perspective of Islamic Educational Philosophy

Tue, 15 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0700

Humans as God's creatures are designed to have goals and directions in life that are not created just like that, but duties and responsibilities must be carried out. In the view of education, humans are learning beings and the learning process includes various aspects and values that live and continue to develop until the end of life. Therefore, this article seeks to examine the process of value internalization viewed from the perspective of Islamic education as a whole. Articles written using a qualitative approach with the method of literature study and data analysis are described descriptively. The results of the study explain that the internalization of values can occur with education by the human himself or with assistance from other people as external parties. The stages of value internalization are carried out in three stages: value transformation, value transaction, and transinternalization. As for the values instilled, namely the values of ma'rifatullah, Abdullah, akhlakul karimah towards oneself (gentle, holding back anger, sincere, and competing in goodness), towards the family (birrul walidain, living, etc.), towards others (helping each other, not doing damage that can harm other people, etc.), national character, religious character.

The Persistence of Modernity in Affecting Identities in Literature and Comic Studies

Tue, 15 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0700

For a long time, since Descartes came with his Cogito Ergo Sum, modernism has shaped human’s identities marked by the shifting points from theocentric to anthropocentric perspectives. The modernity itself affects matter of everyday life both in general and particular aspects, from ideas of being a good individual to matters of social interactions and from imitating psychological ethical deeds to concentrating on unconscious evil of self. The condition then also signifies the developments of literature to its core by approving the cruciality of individuality furthermore. The effect is either points out to comic studies in which its triviality has evolved into a more serious literature. From those backgrounds, this paper would like to examine the question of how and why modernity shapes and represents intricate issues of identity, including but not limited to dark tetrad personalities, as seen in comics studies. Through explorative approach and qualitative method, this article explores the analysis of identity in the midst of modernity in literature and comic studies. In conclusion, modernity may shape literature, but the looseness of literature may still be free by accentuating its flexibility toward any civilization.

The Paradox of Poverty Reduction and the Reality of Sustainable Structural Poverty

Masfiah Diana Fitriani, Nadofah Nadofah — Tue, 15 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0700

The purpose of this research is to reveal the reality that the Indonesian poverty rate is still quite high, although there are many implementations of poverty policies and poverty reduction programs. Structural poverty is one of the poverty types determining the sustainability of poverty rates. Some people mention structural poverty as heirs. Structural poverty has many unexpected conditions and reasons why “the poor stay poor, and the rich become richer”. Sometimes, poverty is created, not just appears. This research uses a qualitative method approach. The analysis is based on primary and secondary data from the field notes, observation, and literature review. The result found that many poverty policies and poverty reduction programs along the way are just formalities. No programs or policies aim to reduce the poverty structure or address its root causes. The currently poor will probably live poor in the future because of the lack of accessibility to feasible education, health facilities, feasible wages, and career opportunities. Even, though there is employee exploitation, capital accessibility barriers, academic clustering, ambiguous regulation of welfare rights, the burden of tax rate, and other inequality of chance, supposed zero poverty is never reached. Therefore, even though poverty alleviation policies have been implemented for a long time, the rate of poverty reduction has not occurred significantly. Structural poverty is one type of poverty that requires collaborative governance in its resolution, because in efforts to eradicate poverty, especially structural poverty, many policies are needed that must be integrated into various lines of community life.

Rahmawaty Hasan, Rizky Resvita Bahi — Tue, 15 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0700

Folic acid is a micronutrient that is needed by pregnant women in the development of the nervous system. Consumption of Moringa leaves can increase hemoglobin levels, >11 g%. Potential nutrients contained in Moringa leaves can meet the nutritional needs of pregnant women. However, the chemical compound interact with target of the molecular action of folic acid is not known. This study aims to identify the chemical compound of Moringa leaves that can interact with folate receptors in silico and predict pharmacokinetic parameters based on the SwissADME webserver. The selected molecular target is the alpha-folate receptor (PDB: 4LRH) with a molecular docking technique using Autodock 4.2 which has been previously validated to the native ligand. The results of molecular docking showed that the potential compounds of Moringa leaves were glucosinalbin, niazidin, niazinin, niazirin and rhamnetin which had an energy value of less than -8 kcal/mol. However, the potential of these compounds is not more than the energy value of folic acid as a native ligand on a folic acid receptor macromolecule. Prediction results of pharmacokinetic parameters showed that all potential compounds of Moringa leaf showed that niazinin, niazirin, and rhamnetin were highly absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract, except for niazidin and glucosine. Rhamnetin is a potential compound that can be catalyzed by CYP3A4, CYP1A2 and CYP2D6 enzymes.

Effectiveness of Cinema Therapy Techniques to Improve Self-Concept in Students of SMA Negeri 8 Depok

Tue, 15 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0700

Self-concept is an individual's cognitive representation of himself or herself that includes judgments, feelings, and beliefs about abilities, characteristics, and values. This self-concept acts as a reference for individual achievement. Individuals with a positive self-concept tend to have a high level of self-confidence, strong intrinsic motivation, and good resilience, so they are better able to overcome challenges and achieve their life goals. In contrast, individuals with a negative self-concept often experience difficulties in regulating emotions, lack confidence in their abilities, and tend to avoid situations that are considered threatening, thus inhibiting personal growth and achieving maximum potential. Adolescents who are in the phase of change into adulthood, tend to experience a decrease in self-concept. Adolescents who experience a decrease in self-concept are characterized by lack of confidence, pessimism, and excessive fear of failure. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of cinema therapy techniques in improving self-concept in students of SMAN 8 Depok. The participants in this study amounted to 30 students, who were divided into two groups, namely the control group and the experimental group. The experimental group was given treatment in the form of a movie with a motivational genre entitled "Like Star on Earth". This movie tells the story of a talented child who is underestimated by his environment because he has dyslexia. This situation changes when there is new support from one of the teachers who helps improve his self-concept. Thus, this movie is worth giving to our experimental research subjects who have low self-concept. While no treatment was given to the control group, in order to see the difference with the treatment of the experimental group. This research uses a type of Quasi Experiment research using Two Group Pretest-Posttest Design. The data analysis used in this study was processed using SPSS 26 software. While the data analysis method used is the Mann Whitney Test. Based on the results of the analysis of the posttest scores of the experimental group and the control group, it shows a significant value of 0.033 (p < 0.05), which means that there is a difference in the level of self-concept of students after treatment. So it can be concluded that cinema therapy treatment is effective for improving self-concept in students who have low self-concept.

The religious factor has a B coefficient of 0.032 and an exp (B) of 3.9. This means that students with a religion factor of 3.9 times will have high spirituality. It is hoped that students will be able to increase their spirituality by being more self-reflective on the meaning of life, being able to have and adhere to their own beliefs which may be different from those of most people.

FOMO, Social Media, and the Surge in Suicide Cases: A Student Mental Health Perspective in the Digital Age

Heru Dwi Herbowo — Tue, 15 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0700

In the digital era, the use of social media among students in Indonesia continues to increase, giving rise to the phenomenon of Fear of Missing Out (FOMO). According to data from We Are Social and Hootsuite (2023), 34% of social media users in Indonesia come from the 18-24 age group, making students the most vulnerable group to the negative impact of social media. FOMO, a condition where a person feels afraid of falling behind on information or activities that others are doing, often triggers anxiety and stress. This contributes to a decline in mental health, which in some cases leads to an increase in suicidal thoughts. A report from the Ministry of Health (2021) states that one in four university students in Indonesia experience mental health disorders, with intensive social media use as one of the triggering factors. This research uses a literature study method, by reviewing various scientific literature, government reports, and recent statistical data related to the relationship between FOMO, social media, and college students' mental health. Data were collected from academic journals, health surveys, and campus suicide reports. The study results show that FOMO triggered by social media use has a significant impact on college students' mental health. The pressure to always be “connected” and follow trends leads to chronic anxiety, depression, and in some cases, suicidal tendencies. The surge in suicides among college students shows the need for serious attention to this phenomenon.In conclusion, FOMO and the overuse of social media contribute greatly to the mental health crisis among college students. A preventive approach through digital literacy education and mental health support on campus is needed to address this issue.

Mindfulness in Salah Prayer: Understanding Khusyu’ from A Psychological Term Approach

Muhammad Fakhruddin Al-Razi, Sri Mukti — Tue, 15 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0700

Khusyu' is one of the factors that determine the quality of a Muslim's prayer. However, in scientific studies, the concept of khusyu' has not received significant attention among researchers. Given that khusyu' is a mental phenomenon, the psychological approach is important in studying this aspect. This study aims to examine khusyu' through a psychological approach by reviewing relevant literature. One of the psychological concepts considered to be in line with khusyu' is mindfulness. Through the literature review, this study found an alignment between khusyu' and mindfulness, where khusyu' can be understood as a form of mindfulness in prayer. The main characteristics of khusyu' include a full presence in prayer, inner calmness, and a centered focus on worship without being distracted by outside thoughts. In addition, khusyu' involves deep contemplation of the meaning of the movements and recitations in prayer. Thus, this study concludes that khusyu' can be conceptualized as mindfulness in the context of prayer, which is characterized by deep mental and emotional presence and spiritual meaning to each component of worship. The findings are expected to enrich academic discussions on khusyu' and open up further research opportunities in the field of psychology of religion, particularly in relation to Muslim worship practices.

Socio-Cultural Dynamics Challenges in Mental Health Issues and Human Rights in Indonesia

Weny Lestari — Tue, 15 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0700

The increasing prevalence of mental health disorders in Indonesia demands urgent attention. Data of 2018 Basic Health Research showed that 6.1% of population above 15 years old experiencing depression and only 9% receiving treatment. Schizophrenia/Psychosis prevalence stands at 6.7 per mill, with 14% subjected to confinement, particularly in rural areas. Despite 85% seeking treatment, only 48.9% adhere to prescribed medication. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic has further exacerbated mental health challenges, with socio-cultural stigma and confinement persisting as coping mechanisms. Family attitudes toward mental health remain a critical concern, impeding post-treatment care. Socio-cultural influences significantly affect detection, treatment, and post-treatment of mental health. The pervasive cultural stigma attributes mental health issues to mystical causes, perpetuating resistance to treatment and reliance on non-medical alternatives. Socio-cultural stigma and isolation compound the challenges on human rights especially on the rights to get the proper mental health’s treatment and information, negatively impacting individuals, families, and communities. Socio-cultural dynamics, poverty, limited access to healthcare, and inadequate support systems contribute to the complexity of mental health issues. Socio-culturally competence in community empowerment is crucial to foster awareness and early intervention, addressing the multifaceted challenges surrounding mental health in Indonesia.

Policy Analysis of Ministerial Regulation No. 24/2007 on Primary School Facilities and Infrastructure Standards: Implications for Education Quality

Aprilia Nurulita, Vira Muthia Rabiah — Wed, 16 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0700

In Indonesia, the gap in the quality of educational facilities and infrastructure is a serious challenge that has a direct impact on the quality of education. In an effort to address this, the Minister of National Education Regulation No. 24/2007 regulates the minimum standards of infrastructure that must be met by each school to support the learning process. This policy encourages educational institutions to be more concerned with the availability of supporting facilities in order to create a comfortable learning environment for students. This research uses a literature review approach to analyze the policy and its implications for the quality of education in Indonesia. Although this policy has set standard criteria, the actual conditions in the field, especially in schools in remote areas, are still far from expectations. Many schools suffer from classroom shortages, empty libraries, lack of books and learning resources, dysfunctional laboratories, and learning media such as teaching aids, computers and supporting technology are often not available in sufficient quantities. This condition indirectly affects the quality of education. Therefore, the fulfillment of minimum standards of facilities and infrastructure is crucial in creating an educational environment that supports quality improvement, while reducing the gap between schools in developed and underdeveloped areas.

Bioreactor Design for Sustainable Energy: Case Study of Cow Manure Waste

Rafief Baharrudin, Nur Ardiansah — Wed, 16 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0700

The potential of cow manure in Indonesia presents an opportunity to be utilized in technological development, particularly using livestock waste as raw material. This technological development aims to produce alternative fuel to replace LPG for cooking purposes. The processing of cow manure into biogas offers significant economic benefits. Furthermore, the use of cow manure as a raw material for biogas can reduce dependence on fossil energy sources and provide a sustainable and efficient energy solution for national energy needs. The development of bioreactor technology also has the potential to increase energy efficiency in communities, support the productivity of mushroom cultivation, and contribute to better waste management through the prudent use of cow manure. Biogas, as one of the processed products, is a combustible natural gas, with the main components being methane (CH₄), hydrogen (H₂), and carbon dioxide (CO₂). This composition makes biogas an attractive alternative energy source for further development. However, most biodigester installations for biogas production remain relatively simple, necessitating the development of better system designs to support effective biogas production monitoring. In this study, the biodigester installation is designed with dimensions of 14.326 meters in length, 4.991 meters in width, and 1.992 meters in depth. The objective of this research is to design a biodigester apparatus capable of processing cow manure waste into renewable energy, such as biogas, which can be utilized by local communities for cooking and mushroom cultivation. In addition to biogas, another by-product is liquid waste from the biogas processing, which can be used as liquid fertilizer, while solid waste can be utilized as planting media for the surrounding community.

Economic and health prospects and challenges of kombucha in Indonesia

William Ben Gunawan, Alexander Ivan Gunawan — Wed, 16 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0700

Economic growth always involves various aspects of the economy, one of which is the food and beverage industry. Kombucha, a globally consumed fermented beverage, has gained remarkable popularity among health-conscious individuals due to its slightly sweet and sour taste. Moreover, the process of crafting kombucha is relatively simple and practical, making kombucha a potentially lucrative product for businesses. Not only does kombucha offer health advantages and commercial viability, but it also holds promise for innovation in industry and the creative economy, opening the doors for the creation of various derivative products. However, the application of kombucha in Indonesia faces several challenges. This review seeks to examine the prospects and challenges of kombucha products in Indonesia both in terms of economy and health. A comprehensive review of national and international literature has been performed, presenting the idea of economic and health prospects and challenges of kombucha in Indonesia. Based on the contents, we propose that the application of kombucha in Indonesia is likely to bring more benefits (both health and economic) than its adverse health effects. The trend of kombucha beverage products in Indonesia is still constrained by several regulatory restrictions and halal aspects. Kombucha has advantages both in terms of affordable production costs and by-products of the kombucha fermentation process that can be applied in various industries as well as various health benefits of kombucha. Health claims on kombucha products will be better if accompanied by halal certification so that these benefits can be felt by the Indonesian people at large. Related to this, the author supports efforts to study and research kombucha products in more depth to provide excellence and benefits to the people of Indonesia. Various local foods, herbs, and resources in Indonesia can be used as the main ingredients of kombucha, so it becomes very interesting to explore.

Faizatul Faridy, Marzatul Mirna, Munawwarah Munawwarah, Aulia Rohendi — Wed, 16 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0700

This study explores the role of family in nurturing naturalistic intelligence to foster environmental awareness in early childhood. Field data shows that habits such as littering, picking flowers, wasting food, and leaving the television on after watching are still commonly practiced by children. This research employs a qualitative descriptive method, with data collected through interviews, observations, and documentation. The subjects of the study were parents (mothers and fathers) from nine families who work as farmers in Peunalom II Village, Tangse, Pidie. The findings indicate that families introduce naturalistic intelligence in diverse ways, such as familiarizing children with local flora and fauna, taking them to the fields or farms, and teaching them to dispose of waste properly. However, parents do not adequately educate their children about the consequences of neglecting environmental care. The study also reveals that children’s naturalistic intelligence varies significantly. Many show high interest and enthusiasm in exploring their surroundings, demonstrating a keen ability to observe, recognize, and interact with various objects, including plants, animals, and humans. This research highlights the critical role of parents in fostering a deeper understanding and appreciation of the environment in young children, emphasizing the need for more comprehensive environmental education within the family setting.

Environmental Education: Awareness, Urgency and Solutions Through the Bridge of Environmental Fiqh and Green Constitution

Aji Baskoro — Wed, 16 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0700

The Earth faces an environmental crisis that impacts many aspects of life. Climate change, pollution and biodiversity loss are urging the world to take immediate action. Indonesia, as an archipelago with rich biodiversity, is no exception to these challenges. Environmental degradation is caused not only by natural factors but also by humans. Activities exploit nature excessively, indicating a lack of awareness about environmental preservation. Education, as a fundamental tool for imparting knowledge and awareness, must address these challenges. Environmental education is crucial, not only for raising public awareness but also for shaping proactive attitudes and behaviors in safeguarding nature. This paper will explore how the lens of environmental fiqh, grounded in religious values, can collaborate with constitutional principles to establish an environmentally conscious education system. Through a statutory and conceptual approach with qualitative analysis based on literature and using a normative methodology, this study concludes that the perspectives of environmental fiqh and the Indonesian constitution provide ethical and legal foundations for environmental education. Environmental fiqh emphasizes human responsibility as khalifah of the Earth, requiring the awareness that preserving the environment is part of worship and moral duty. In the context of education, environmental fiqh promotes teaching ecological values based on religious principles, including amar ma’ruf nahi munkar. Meanwhile, the Indonesian constitution, particularly Article 28H (1) of the 1945 (Green Constitution), asserts the right of every citizen to a good and healthy environment. This shows that environmental preservation is a shared responsibility, not just of individuals but also of the state. Therefore, environmental education must be integrated into school curricula as part of the state's effort to fulfill constitutional rights. Integrating religious concepts into environmental education enhances not only scientific ecological awareness but also imbues it with a strong spiritual and ethical dimension, creating a society more attuned to the preservation of nature.

Analysis of Madden-Julian Oscillation Phenomenon and its Effect on Rainfall Condition in New Capital City of Indonesia, IKN Nusantara

Anwar Budi Nugroho, Bai’at Alhadid, Yakubos Samoria — Wed, 16 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0700

The development of the Indonesian Capital City (IKN) in Indonesia faces major challenges due to hydrometeorological disasters such as floods and landslides. High rainfall fluctuations, coupled with changes in land use, have the potential to increase the risk of hydrometeorological disasters. Therefore, a comprehensive mitigation strategy is needed, including adaptation through climate change and weather studies in determining the direction of infrastructure development, to ensure the resilience and safety of the IKN Nusantara area. MJO is one of the factors that can cause high rainfall fluctuations or extreme rain in the Indonesian region. Therefore, this study examines the influence of the MJO phenomenon on rainfall conditions, especially extreme rain events in the IKN area, with a focus only on MJO phases 3, 4, and 5. This study uses rainfall data for 30 years (1991–2020) from meteorological station observation data and the CHIRPS satellite. The results of the study show that MJO significantly affects rainfall conditions, especially extreme rainfall events in the IKN Nusantara region. In addition, this study also succeeded in identifying areas that have significant responses to MJO phases. Generally, the influence of MJO varies by phase and season, both in terms of monthly rainfall accumulation and extreme rainfall events. Some MJO phases increase the average extreme rainfall by up to 20% when the momentum coincides with humid atmospheric conditions that support the formation of convective clouds in the IKN Nusantara region, while other phases can reduce rainfall by up to 5% due to airflow that inhibits the formation of rain clouds in certain areas. This pattern shows a complex interaction between the MJO and local weather variability, which is influenced by seasonal factors and geographical characteristics of the IKN Nusantara region.

Development of Innovative Chemistry Teaching Materials for Molecular Geometry Using Recycled Materials

Wed, 16 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0700

The limitations of molecular geometry learning media in Indonesia often pose challenges in understanding abstract chemistry concepts, while commercial molecular models are relatively expensive for most educational institutions. This study aims to develop a prototype molecular model using recycled materials as an economical and sustainable alternative learning medium. An exploratory approach was employed in the prototype development, involving six students and one chemistry education lecturer. The materials used included plastic pipettes, marbles, skewers, bottle caps, and used cardboard, which were processed through a series of systematic stages. The research resulted in two distinct prototypes: the "Alkane Series" Model, showcasing a series of hydrocarbons from methane to propane (CH₄, C₂H₆, C₃H₈), and the "Molecule Shape" Model, visualizing various geometric shapes of inorganic compound molecules (SO₂, CO₂, H₂O, BF₃, NH₃, CH₄). Durability evaluations indicated that both models exhibited good resilience after more than 50 repeated uses, while safety testing confirmed their compliance with usage standards in educational settings. The "Alkane Series" Model effectively visualized the pattern of atom addition in the alkane homologous series, while the "Molecule Shape" Model successfully demonstrated the variations in molecular geometry shapes, ranging from linear to tetrahedral. The use of recycled materials not only provides an economical solution to the limitations of learning media but also supports the implementation of education for sustainable development. Although standardization for large-scale production still requires further research, the findings of this study open opportunities for the development of recycled material-based learning media for other chemistry concepts.

This needs to be done to provide recommendations for action, if the discourse on reconsidering the ‘adalah of al-sahabah is undertaken. This paper is a qualitative research. The method used in this study is descriptive-analytical. The main object of the research is the hadiths narrated by Mu’awiyah, which are traced using the book Tuhfat al-Ashraf bi Ma’rifat al-Atraf to identify the hadiths of Mu’awiyah that are found in sahihayn. These hadith are analyzed in the context of Mu’awiyah political decisions. In conclusion, the data reveals that Mu’awiyah narrated hadiths on various themes including theology, worship, virtues, Sufism, law, and politics. Political-themed hadiths occupy the lowest percentage. The two of fifteen hadiths are relevant to his political policies. Mu’awiyah’s interests are mainly reflected in the interpretation of hadiths, where he transmitted the hadiths along with interpretations that benefited him. Furthermore, no hadiths contradict his political policies. The small percentage of politicization indicates that Mu’awiyah minimally used hadiths as a political tool. Therefore, this research supports the principle of al-sahabah kulluhum ‘udul fi al-riwayah and the study of the characteristics of al-sahabah is sufficient to be applied only in fahm al-hadith.

This study aims to examine the effect of Jigsaw Cooperative Learning on the learning motivation of 10th-grade students in Islamic Religious Education subjects at SMAN 12 Makassar. This study is descriptive quantitative research with a survey approach that aims to describe the effect of implementing the Jigsaw cooperative learning method on students' motivation in Islamic Religious Education (PAI) subjects in class XI SMAN 12 Makassar. The population of this study was all students of class XI who had participated in learning with the Jigsaw method, with a sample of 38 students taken by purposive sampling. Two main instruments were used in data collection to measure the learning process a queue: a questionnaire on the implementation of the Jigsaw method and a questionnaire on learning motivation filled out by students; the data collected was then analyzed descriptively to describe the implementation of the Jigsaw method and how this method affects students' learning motivation. In addition, correlation analysis was also used to see the relationship between implementing the Jigsaw method and the level of student motivation. The results of this study are expected to provide a clear picture of the Effect of Jigsaw cooperative learning on students' learning motivation in class XI SMAN 12 Makassar. Jigsaw Learning Method, 53% of respondents are in the "moderate" category (values 39.39 to 47.81), 29% of respondents are in the "high" category (above 47.81), and 18% are in the "low" category (less than 39.39). Thus, most students have assessments that are around the average, with a distribution centred on the moderate category. The average motivation value of 61.24 with a standard deviation of 4.82 indicates a relatively good level of motivation. As many as 55% of respondents have learning motivation in the moderate category (57.03 to 65.43), while 18% are in the high category, and 26% are in the low category. Most respondents are in the moderate category, indicating relatively stable learning motivation. The descriptive analysis shows that the jigsaw learning method and student learning motivation are pretty good and consistent, with most students performing moderately. Implementing the Jigsaw type of cooperative learning method has a significant impact on increasing student learning motivation, especially at SMAN 12 Makassar in the subject of Islamic Religious Education (PAI). Based on the statistical analysis, this method has been proven to substantially increase learning motivation, where each increase in the implementation of the Jigsaw method increases student learning motivation by 0.849 units. In addition, this method is also effective in involving students more actively in the learning process, deepening understanding of the material, and improving social skills such as communication and collaboration. This study confirms that Jigsaw is an effective learning strategy that can improve motivation and learning outcomes in classrooms with diverse students.
