2025-07-08T03:50:36+00:00

Geospatial information and community participation in regional development at various levels, including villages/subdistricts, are currently required to support economic growth and community empowerment. Good planning (based on digital and spatial information) and community participation in community management are presently needed. By utilizing digital and spatial information presented in maps and resource information, geographical locations can be easily identified. This study aims to map resources and infrastructure in Pasar Tanjung Enim Village based on geospatial information and community participation. Specifically, this research aims to provide a database and base maps of high-resolution satellite imagery and thematic maps of resources and infrastructure at the village level (large-scale and detailed), both in digital and hardcopy formats, with the involvement of community participation, and compiled into a village potential map album. Data was collected using spatial data from the Muara Enim Public Works and Spatial Planning Agency, infrastructure surveys with handheld GPS devices, and ESRI satellite imagery as base maps. Spatial data collection and field validation resulted in 148 attribute data. The results of this study are 11 thematic maps at a scale of 1:15,000, namely administrative village maps containing information on area size and boundaries, land cover, and infrastructure (road networks, telecommunications networks, government offices, places of worship, health facilities, commercial facilities, educational facilities, and public facilities). The success of this mapping supports replication in other regions. It aligns with the one map policy, emphasising spatial integration and community participation in data-driven village development.

Equivalence partitioning and cognitive walkthrough testing on the training prama website

2025-06-09T03:18:28+00:00

The Prama Training Website, developed by PT. Triputra Karya Lestari, aims to support employee skill development. However, the platform is underutilized due to usability issues and non-functional features. To address these problems, a two-pronged evaluation approach was conducted: Functional Testing using the Equivalence Partitioning (EP) method, and Non-Functional Testing through Cognitive Walkthrough (CW). Testing was carried out in two iterative stages. In stage one, 127 issues were identified 31 from EP and 96 from CW, while stage two revealed 12 remaining issues. These findings informed the design of a high-fidelity prototype, which incorporated targeted improvements to interface functionality and usability. The development culminated in the implementation of a revised Front-End Final Prototype, providing a more intuitive and accessible user experience for employees

The role of digital technology-based Islamic education in strengthening social cohesion: a case study of Aceh’s madrasahs after the Helsinki accord

2025-08-01T08:51:25+00:00

This study investigated the impact of integrating digital technology into Syariah-based Islamic education on student learning outcomes and social cohesion in ten madrasahs across Banda Aceh, a region that the 2005 Helsinki Peace Accord has shaped following decades of conflict. Employing a sequential explanatory mixed-methods design, the research combined survey data from 500 students with qualitative interviews and focus group discussions involving educators, students, and religious leaders. Digital tools—such as Islamic e-learning platforms, interactive da’wah applications, and multimedia Qur’an modules—were examined for their influence on academic engagement, critical thinking, and intergroup harmony. Quantitative analysis revealed significant positive relationships between technology-enhanced instruction and student motivation, critical reflection, and civic responsibility. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) showed that student engagement partially mediated the relationship between digital pedagogy and social cohesion (total effect ? = 0.68, p < .001). Thematic analysis indicated that technology reinforced Islamic learning, promoted inclusivity, and gained wider acceptance when framed within Syariah values and supported by local ulama. The findings suggest that, when thoughtfully implemented, digital Islamic education can act as a peacebuilding mechanism. Recommendations include teacher training, institutional investment, involvement of ulama, and long-term evaluation for sustainability and replication

Technology readiness evaluation in dry choux pastry SMEs

2025-07-15T05:46:39+00:00

This study evaluated the readiness level of technoware (equipment and machinery) and humanware (workforce competency) in a small-scale dry choux pastry enterprise to comply with the Indonesian National Standard (SNI) 2973:2011 for biscuits. The assessment was conducted using the Quality Function Deployment (QFD) framework and Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) to align customer needs and product quality standards with the production processes. Expert-based scoring was applied to measure the technological sophistication of production equipment and human capabilities based on UNESCAP classifications. The study identified the gap between actual conditions and the standard requirements by calculating aggregate scores for both technoware and humanware components across each production stage. The results revealed readiness gaps reaching 50.3% in microbial safety and 49.5% in free fatty acid (FFA) control, with technoware deficiencies most severe in packaging and filling, while humanware gaps were prominent in ingredient preparation and cooking. Improvement priorities were proposed using planning and technical matrices to calculate improvement ratios and normalized weights. Key improvement targets included moisture content control (improvement ratio = 1.28), flavor consistency, and heavy-metal safety. To assist micro and small bakery enterprises, this research suggests that incremental investments be made in PID-controlled ovens, stainless steel trays, and structured operator training in GMP and sensory evaluation. The main objective of this study is to develop a diagnostic framework that guides SME owners in prioritizing technology and competency upgrades to achieve sustainable compliance with SNI 2973:2011. The study concludes that a strategic focus on upgrading both machinery and human skillsets is essential for small food enterprises aiming to meet national food safety and quality standards

2025-08-08T15:18:33+00:00

The purpose of this study was to analyze the extent to which influencer marketing and electronic word of mouth (E-WOM) simultaneously influence consumer purchasing decisions. This research employed a quantitative approach with a survey method. Data were collected through questionnaires distributed to 100 respondents who had purchased or used cosmetic products after being exposed to influencer marketing and E-WOM, selected using purposive sampling. Data analysis was conducted using multiple linear regression to determine the influence of the independent variables (influencer marketing and E-WOM) on the dependent variable (purchase decision). The findings reveal that influencer marketing and E-WOM significantly affect consumer purchasing decisions, with a combined contribution of 56.9%. This result highlights the novelty of integrating both digital strategies as complementary drivers of consumer behavior in the cosmetic industry, particularly in an era where peer-to-peer communication and digital endorsements increasingly shape purchase intentions. From an academic perspective, this study enriches the literature on digital marketing by demonstrating how the synergy between influencer credibility and electronic word-of-mouth creates a stronger explanatory framework for understanding purchasing decisions. Practically, the findings imply that cosmetic brands should not only optimize influencer collaborations but also design strategies that stimulate authentic consumer engagement to enhance E-WOM, thereby achieving a sustainable competitive advantage in digital marketplaces.

Balance dilemma: the effect of work-life balance and work stress on turnover intention at ud putra ts, majalengka

2025-07-07T03:26:28+00:00

In the modern world of work, work-life balance is an important factor in determining employee satisfaction and retention. Imbalances in this aspect often trigger work stress, which can ultimately increase employee turnover intention or intention to leave the organization. This study aims to analyze the influence of work-life balance and work stress on turnover intention at UD Putra TS, an SME in the retail sector in Majalengka. This study uses a quantitative approach with a survey method. Data was collected from 50 employees using a questionnaire with a Likert scale of 5 points. Data analysis was carried out using multiple linear regression with the help of SPSS. Descriptive statistical results show that 64% of employees experience a work-life imbalance, 58% feel high work stress, and 40% have the intention to leave in the next six months. The regression test results showed that work-life balance had a negative and significant influence on turnover intention (? = -0.421, p < 0.05), which means that the better the work-life balance, the lower the employee's intention to leave. On the other hand, work stress had a positive and significant effect on turnover intention (? = 0.507, p < 0.05), which indicated that the higher the level of work stress, the greater the employee's intention to leave the company. These findings are in line with the Job Demands-Resources (JD-R) Theory, which states that the imbalance between job demands and resources can trigger stress and increase turnover intention. These results also support recent research in the past five years, such as studies by Kim & Kao (2021), Wang et al. (2022), and Nugroho & Setiawan (2024), which found similar relationships in the context of SMEs and the retail industry

2025-07-01T04:35:30+00:00

The rapid growth of Indonesia’s fintech industry, especially in peer-to-peer (P2P) lending, presents both opportunities and financial risks. This study aims to examine and compare the financial management strategies of two major Indonesian fintech companies—Easycash and Findaya—by analyzing their profitability, liquidity, solvency, and operational efficiency. Using a descriptive comparative design and secondary data from audited financial reports covering the period from 2019 to 2023, the study calculates key financial ratios, including ROA, ROE, Current Ratio, DER, and Efficiency Ratio. Results show that Easycash adopted a high-leverage growth model, experiencing a significant decline in profitability (ROA: 58.7% to 2.6%) and an increase in financial risk (DER reached 2.20). In contrast, Findaya followed a conservative financial strategy, improving performance with increased ROA (-53.8% to 16.0%), higher liquidity (CR: 4.15), and lower debt (DER: 0.32). These contrasting approaches provide insight into risk tolerance, strategy execution, and resilience. The study contributes by offering firm-level evidence on how financial management impacts competitiveness in Indonesia’s fintech sector and serves as a model for evaluating financial strategies in similar emerging markets.

Emotional Intelligence as a psychological shield: a strategy to manage work stress in improving employee performance

2025-08-19T01:59:43+00:00

Work stress is a psychological phenomenon that is increasingly prominent amid the complexity of the modern workplace. Excessive workloads, tight deadlines, and pressure from work systems and relationships can hinder productivity and reduce the quality of individual performance. However, not all individuals respond to stress in the same way. Emotional intelligence (EI), the ability to recognise, understand and manage one's own and others' emotions, has been shown to play an important role as a buffer against work pressure. This book chapter comprehensively examines how emotional intelligence can moderate the relationship between work stress and employee performance, by examining the theoretical foundations of organisational psychology, and mapping empirical evidence from relevant studies. Through a conceptual approach and critical reflection on current literature, this chapter also explores the strategic role of HRM in building a work environment that supports the development of employees' emotional intelligence, whether through training, coaching or organisational interventions. It emphasises how EI not only impacts on improving individual resilience to stress, but also becomes an important asset in creating healthy team collaboration, emotionally intelligent decision-making, and sustainable performance improvement. Therefore, the purpose of this chapter is to synthesize existing theoretical and empirical evidence to argue for the critical role of emotional intelligence as a psychological shield, and to provide actionable recommendations for integrating EI development into human resource management strategies to enhance employee performance and well-being. such, this chapter offers theoretical and practical contributions in bridging the need for organisations to increase productivity, while maintaining the psychological health of their workforce amidst evolving work demands.

Cultural Meaning in Tourism: A Typological Analysis of Tourist Experiences in Kampung Wayang

2025-06-17T04:02:35+00:00

Cultural tourism serves as a dynamic platform for identity negotiation, heritage preservation, and intercultural dialogue, particularly within community-based destinations. Rather than merely observing static cultural artifacts, visitors are increasingly drawn to immersive experiences that allow them to engage with living traditions and co-create meaning alongside local hosts. This study focuses on Kampung Wayang, a cultural enclave situated in Wukirsari, Yogyakarta, where the traditional art of wayang kulit is not only preserved but practiced as an everyday expression of cultural identity. Here, tourists are not passive consumers but active participants in a dialogical process of cultural transmission. The findings highlight that meaning-making in tourism is contingent upon the intensity and authenticity of interaction with cultural agents such as dalangs (puppet masters), artisans, and community storytellers. For instance, those who participated in puppet-making workshops or engaged in discussions about wayang philosophy reported deeper emotional resonance and cognitive insight. This supports theoretical models that posit experience as a co-constructed, affective, and reflective process. Ultimately, the study confirms that immersive participation in cultural production fosters not only aesthetic appreciation but also a profound understanding of embedded social values such as justice, loyalty, and spiritual balance. These findings suggest that cultural villages like Kampung Wayang serve as critical arenas for sustainable tourism, where the visitor experience transcends commodification and becomes a catalyst for mutual understanding and heritage continuity. As such, the village operates as both a site of memory and a space of transformation a place where local culture is not only performed, but also renegotiated through the eyes of its guests

2025-08-08T05:09:39+00:00

School feeding programs are widely recognized as strategic interventions to improve child nutrition, support academic achievement, and reduce the economic burden on low-income families, making them a vital component of social policy in many countries, including Indonesia. The Free Nutritious Meal Program for elementary schools aims to address these goals, yet its success depends not only on technical delivery but also on how beneficiaries perceive its benefits. This study examined the perceived benefits of the program by analyzing the influence of food quality, meal distribution frequency, and program information, with trust in government as a mediating variable. Using a quantitative approach, data were collected from 133 parents of beneficiary students through structured questionnaires and analyzed with Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). Results indicate that food quality has the strongest direct effect on perceived benefits, followed by program information. Meal frequency showed no significant direct effect but contributed indirectly by strengthening trust in government, which emerged as a significant mediator. These findings highlight that improving technical service quality must be accompanied by strategies to build institutional trust. The study offers theoretical contributions by integrating public service management and trust perspectives, and practical implications for policymakers to enhance service quality, transparency, and communication strategies.
