QUALITATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE INTEGRATION OF THE STEAM METHOD IN DEVELOPING INDONESIAN LANGUAGE SKILLS AT MI MAARIF BOJONGSARI
This study explores the integration of the STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics) approach into Indonesian language learning at MI Maarif Bojongsari. Using qualitative descriptive methods, the study examines how STEAM-based learning impacts students' language skills, creativity, and 21st-century competencies. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with teachers, classroom observations, and document analysis. The results indicate that a project-based and inquiry-based learning model that integrates various STEAM disciplines effectively improves students' Indonesian language skills. For example, students engaged in activities such as designing a water filtration system and creating a persuasive poster, which required the application of language skills in real-world contexts. This interdisciplinary approach not only improved vocabulary and sentence structure but also encouraged critical thinking, problem-solving, and collaboration. However, the study also identified challenges such as limited resources and the need for teacher training in STEAM pedagogy. Despite this, teachers demonstrated creativity and adaptability by utilizing available resources and peer collaboration to effectively implement STEAM. These findings suggest that integrating STEAM into language education can transform learning by encouraging active engagement, enhancing language development, and preparing students for future challenges. The study concludes that STEAM-based language education has significant potential to reform learning practices at MI Maarif Bojongsari and contribute to students' holistic development by strengthening essential linguistic, cognitive, and social skills in the modern era.

I'JAZ GHAIBI MUSTAQBALI IN QS AL LAHAB VERSES 1-5: ANALYSIS OF THE STORY OF ABU LAHAB AND HIS WIFE
Discusses the concept of i'jāz supernatural mustaqbalī in Surah al-Lahab verses 1–5 by focusing on the story of Abū Lahab and his wife. The purpose of this research is to examine the miraculous nature of the Qur'an through its prophecy about future events that were later proven in historical reality. This research uses a qualitative method with a library research approach by analyzing classical and contemporary Qur'anic commentaries as well as literature related to the sciences of the Qur'an (' Ulūm al-Qur'ān). The results of the study show that Surah al-Lahab is one of the clearest examples of i' jāz supernatural mustaqbalī, as the verses explicitly foretold the destruction of Abū Lahab and his wife while they were still alive. The Qur'an firmly states that wealth, power, and social status cannot save a person from the punishment of Allah. Historical records confirm that Abū Lahab died in a state of disbelief and experienced worldly humiliation after the Battle of Badr, while his wife continued to oppose the message of Islam until the end of her life. The harmony between the Qur'anic prophecy and historical reality serves as strong evidence of the Qur'an's miraculous nature as a divine revelation beyond human knowledge. Therefore, Surah al-Lahab functions not only as a historical account but also as a moral and theological warning for humanity not to reject the truth or fall into arrogance and hostility toward the message of Islam

FORMULATION OF RED DRAGON FRUIT (HYLOCEREUS COSTARICENSIS) BASED ON PORANG TUBER FLOUR (AMORPHOPHALLUS ONCOPPHYLLUS BLUME.) AND SAGU (METROXYLON SAGU ROTTB.) : ANALYSIS OF PHYSICOCHEMICAL CHARACTERISTICS AND ORGANOLEPTIC TESTING OF DODOL AS A SUSTAINABLE HEALTHY FOOD
Dragon fruit, commonly known as Hylocereus costaricensis, has many benefits in its flesh, while its skin is discarded and unused. The skin of Hylocereus costaricensis fruit has many benefits. Dodol is made from Hylocereus costaricensis fruit with the aim of obtaining a more appealing taste, colour and texture, as well as a delicious and chewy flavour that is widely enjoyed. The comparison between porang tuber flour (Amorphophallus oncopphyllus Blume.) and sagu flour (Metroxylon sagu Rottb.) shows that each has its own characteristics. This results in different physicochemical and organoleptic characteristics after being mixed with Hylocereus costaricensis fruit. Porang tuber flour (Amorphophallus oncopphyllus Blume.) functions as a thickener and gel former, giving dodol a chewy and fibre-rich texture, while sagu flour (Metroxylon sagu Rottb.) is rich in fibre and antioxidants. It gives the dodol a chewy, sticky, and dense texture when eaten and also thickens when the sagu flour (Metroxylon sagu Rottb.) is cooked with coconut milk and dodol from Hylocereus costaricensis fruit, giving it a thick consistency

AN ANALYSIS OF THE WENSEN SCHOOL DEPOK INDONESIA CASE: A PARENTING THEORY PERSPECTIVE ON DAYCARE PRACTICES
The child abuse case at Wensen School in Depok involving Meita Irianty, a daycare owner and parenting influencer, generated national concern regarding the integrity of caregiving practices in early childhood institutions. The paradox lies in the disjunction between public authority in parenting discourse and the alleged perpetration of severe physical violence against toddlers aged two to three years. This article examines how extreme authoritarian control, when detached from emotional responsiveness, may deteriorate into physical abuse, and how such acts intersect with broader systemic vulnerabilities. Employing a descriptive qualitative case study design, the analysis draws upon court documents and verified public reports, interpreted through six complementary frameworks: Attachment Theory, Erikson’s Psychosocial Development Theory, Social Learning Theory, Ecological Systems Theory, Parenting Styles Theory, and the concept of Empathic Communication. The findings indicate that the incident reflects not only individual misconduct but also disrupted attachment formation, psychosocial developmental risks, learned patterns of aggression, and regulatory deficiencies within institutional and policy environments. The study argues that child protection in daycare settings requires a multidimensional response encompassing trauma-informed intervention, professional certification and training for caregivers, and strengthened national oversight mechanisms. Child abuse, therefore, should be understood as a systemic failure of caregiving ecology rather than merely an isolated moral deviation

THE ROLE OF PARENTS IN FORMING SUPERIOR CHARACTERS BASED ON THE LOVE CURRICULUM
This study aims to analyze the role of parents in shaping students' superior character based on the Love Curriculum at MI Islamiyah Bumiayu Boureno. Character education is an essential aspect of children's personality development from an early age, which is not only the responsibility of educational institutions but also of the family as the first and primary educational environment. The Love Curriculum, as an educational approach that emphasizes values such as compassion, empathy, responsibility, discipline, and mutual respect, requires active parental involvement in its implementation within the family environment. This research employed a qualitative approach with data collection techniques including observation, interviews, and documentation. The results indicate that parental involvement in habituating positive values at home, providing role models, maintaining effective communication, and collaborating with the school significantly contributes to the development of students' superior character. The synergy between the school and parents in implementing the values of the Love Curriculum has been proven to foster religious attitudes, independence, discipline, and social awareness among students. Therefore, the role of parents becomes a crucial factor in the successful implementation of character education based on the Love Curriculum at MI Islamiyah Bumiayu Boureno

SOCIAL PSYCHOLOGICAL ANALYSIS OF CANCEL CULTURE AND COLLECTIVE AGGRESSION ON SOCIAL MEDIA
The phenomenon of cancel culture has emerged as a dominant instrument of social sanction in the digital era; however, it frequently culminates in destructive forms of collective aggression. This study aims to examine the psychological mechanisms that drive mass participation in public shaming practices and to evaluate their impact on individuals and the broader digital ecosystem. Employing a library research method with a descriptive qualitative approach, this article systematically analyzes scientific literature to identify social psychological patterns underlying the phenomenon. The findings indicate that cancel culture behavior is driven by a combination of internal and external factors. At the individual level, primary motivations include the need for moral validation, social narcissism, and the practice of virtue signaling. These mechanisms are reinforced by the Online Disinhibition Effect, Moral Self-Licensing, and deindividuation, which reduce psychological restraints and provide moral justification for aggressive behavior in cyberspace. At the group level, Social Identity Theory and peer pressure foster loyalty to the in-group, while social media algorithms create echo chambers that accelerate the escalation of collective moral outrage. The impacts of this phenomenon are multidimensional; targets frequently experience chronic stress, anxiety, and social isolation. Conversely, perpetrators tend to gain moral satisfaction and social validation, although they risk reinforcing black-and-white thinking patterns and heightened aggressiveness. Systemically, cancel culture has the potential to cultivate a culture of self-censorship that erodes deliberative dialogue.

THE MEANING OF FEAR OF ADULTERY IN MARRIAGE DISPENSATION APPLICATIONS AT THE SIDOARJO RELIGIOUS COURT
This study aims to analyze the meaning of the concept of "fear of adultery" in the application for marriage dispensation at the Sidoarjo Religious Court. The focus of the study is directed at how prospective brides and grooms and related parties interpret "fear of adultery" as a moral, religious, and social basis, as well as the influence of family pressure, societal norms, and the dynamics of the couple's relationship in forming this meaning. This study uses a qualitative method with a descriptive approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with 10 informants, consisting of 8 prospective brides and grooms and 2 employees of the Sidoarjo Religious Court. Data analysis uses Herbert Blumer's symbolic interactionism theory to understand the process of meaning formation through symbols, language, and social actions. The research results show that the reason for "fear of adultery" does not have a single meaning, but rather is a social construct formed through interactions between the applicant, family, and social environment. This meaning is generally formed by parents as the authority within the family and is used as a moral and religious symbol to legitimize early marriage and maintain family honor. For the Religious Court, "fear of adultery" is understood as a common administrative narrative in the marriage dispensation process. From a symbolic interactionist perspective, early marriage is understood as a social act legitimized through the symbolic meaning of "fear of adultery" that is constructed and accepted collectively

IMPLEMENTATION OF ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORKS FOR SOUND PROCESSING ON SONG REQUEST
The development of multimedia systems has led to the increasing use of digital data, creating difficulties in searching for abundant data. This has encouraged the creation of facilities that can serve humans in communicating with computers or digital objects like human to human. One of the facilities attempted in this research is a voice processing application for remote access to computers used to call up music files using speech. This way, large numbers of music files do not become an obstacle in searching for the files and can speed up file retrieval. This application makes it easier to search for music files using everyday human language. Human speech input is converted into commands that open music files

IMPLICATIONS OF NATURALIZATION OF INDONESIAN NATIONAL TEAM PLAYERS TO IMPROVE THE COUNTRY'S ACHIEVEMENT IN THE FIELD OF FOOTBALL
This research is driven by the massive naturalization of football players to improve the performance of the Indonesian National Team, which had previously stagnated. Although effective in boosting FIFA rankings, this policy has sparked debate regarding its urgency compared to the development of local athletes. The research gap lies in the comprehensive analysis of the actual post-naturalization impact on national achievements, aiming to fill the evaluative void between legal regulations and technical results on the field. The objective of this study is to describe the implementation of the naturalization policy in the Indonesian National Team and its impact on enhancing national performance. This study employs a qualitative approach with a case study design. The sampling technique used is purposive sampling, while the data analysis technique utilizes Teun A. van Dijk's discourse framing analysis. The results indicate that the implementation of the naturalization policy in Indonesia complies with Law No. 12 of 2006, carried out selectively based on technical quality and team requirements. Significant findings show a positive correlation between the presence of naturalized players and the improvement of the National Team's achievements, as concretely evidenced by the rise in FIFA rankings (from 173 to 134) and securing runner-up positions in international events. While providing an instant impact on team performance, this study concludes that naturalization serves as a short-term acceleration strategy that must be accompanied by sustainable local athlete development

EVALUATION OF THE PABANGBON PANORAMA PIONEER TOURISM PROGRAM IN THE FRAMEWORK OF UTILIZING THE FOREST RESOURCES AREA BOGOR
This study aims to evaluate the Pilot Tourism Program of Panorama Pabangbon in the context of using production forest areas, using the Context, Input, Process, Product (CIPP) evaluation model. The research is grounded in the importance of optimizing the multifunctional role of production forests through the development of sustainable, community-based ecotourism. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed, with data collected through interviews, field observations, and document analysis.

ANALYSIS OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF SITU GUNUNG NATURE TOURISM THROUGH ECONOMIC VALUATION WITH AN APPROACH TRAVEL COST METHOD (TCM)
Conservation forest areas serve not only to protect ecosystems but also hold significant economic value through their utilization as nature-based tourism destinations. This study aims to estimate the economic value of tourism at the Suspension Bridge area in Situ Gunung, Sukabumi, using the Travel Cost Method (TCM). This method assesses visitors' willingness to pay by analyzing travel expenditures, visit frequency, and demographic characteristics as proxies for the benefits derived from their visits. Primary data were collected through questionnaires distributed to 100 respondents and analyzed using descriptive and quantitative methods. The results show that the majority of visitors used private vehicles (50%) and rental cars (25%), with an average travel cost of IDR 307,819.96 per person per visit. Most visitors were male, aged between 20 and 30 years, and had a monthly income exceeding IDR 7,000,000. Additionally, 63% of respondents were repeat visitors, indicating a high level of satisfaction. Based on the assumption of 104,940 visits in 2024, the estimated annual economic value of tourism in the Suspension Bridge area amounts to IDR 32,302,525,860. These findings highlight the substantial economic contribution of nature-based tourism in the area and underscore the importance of sustainable management to support environmental conservation and local community empowerment

ANALYSIS OF CHANGES IN FOREST AREA TO OIL PALM PLANTATION LAND IN KUANTAN SINGINGI REGENCY, RIAU PROVINCE
This study was conducted in Jake Village, Kuantan District, Kuantan Singingi Regency, Riau, where the forest area decreased from 166,618 hectares in 2019 to 165,340 hectares in 2023. This decline is largely caused by the conversion of forest land into oil palm plantations, which, while providing significant economic benefits, also threatens the sustainability of natural forests. The main focus of this research is to thoroughly analyze the land-use change from forest to oil palm plantations, including the identification of driving factors, the impacts generated, and the formulation of strategies for future improvement and development. A qualitative approach was employed, with primary data collected through semi-structured interviews with five informants directly relevant to the land conversion phenomenon. The study found that forest conversion is driven by transmigrant communities' desire for higher income, supported by regional autonomy policies that facilitate regulation and investment. Oil palm cultivation increases income, creates employment, accelerates infrastructure development, and strengthens export positions, but it also causes environmental degradation, reduced water resources and soil fertility, loss of biodiversity, social conflicts, and dependency on global CPO prices. Therefore, oil palm development needs to be sustainable through legal certainty in permits, harmonization of customary and state regulations, ISPO/RSPO standards, strengthening farmer institutions, business diversification, product downstreaming, fulfillment of basic community needs, and environmental conservation. This integrated strategy allows palm oil to become a source of welfare without compromising the environment

THE EFFECTIVENESS OF SCHOOL-BASED MANAGEMENT AND COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT ON THE QUALITY OF ISLAMIC EDUCATION
This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of School-Based Management and community involvement in improving the quality of Islamic education in madrasahs. The background of this study is based on the continuing challenges in the quality of Islamic education, particularly in terms of management, public participation, and optimization of institutional autonomy. This study uses a literature review method with an interpretive qualitative approach through a systematic review of academic literature, education regulations, and contemporary education management theories. The analysis was conducted through data reduction, narrative presentation, and conceptual synthesis to explain the relationship between school autonomy, community participation, and the quality of Islamic education. The results of the study indicate that the effectiveness of School-Based Management is largely determined by the balance between management autonomy and public accountability, professional leadership, a culture of quality, and the active involvement of parents and the community in the planning, implementation, and evaluation of educational programs. Community involvement not only increases the transparency and legitimacy of madrasah policies, but also strengthens a sense of ownership and support for improving the quality of learning. Thus, the implementation of adaptive and participatory School-Based Management within the framework of national education decentralization is a relevant strategy for realizing systemic and sustainable improvements in the quality of Islamic education

DIGITAL MARKETING TRANSFORMATION TO INCREASE THE COMPETITIVENESS OF MSMEs IN WEST KLOMPANG VILLAGE, PAKONG DISTRICT, PAMEKASAN REGENCY
The rapid development of digital technology requires Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in rural areas to adapt in order to remain competitive and sustainable in an increasingly dynamic market environment. However, low levels of digital literacy, limited online marketing skills, and the lack of continuous assistance remain major challenges faced by rural MSMEs. This article aims to describe and analyze the empowerment process of MSMEs in Klompang Barat Village through digital marketing assistance as a strategy to strengthen the local economy sustainably. The study employs a participatory and practical approach, involving field observation, socialization, mentoring, and hands-on practice in utilizing digital technologies. The findings indicate that prior to the assistance program, most MSMEs operated using conventional business practices with minimal use of digital tools. Following the mentoring activities, there was a notable improvement in digital literacy, an increase in the adoption of digital business accounts, and the registration of business locations on Google Maps, which positively contributed to business visibility and professionalism. Nevertheless, challenges such as time constraints and inconsistency in content management continue to hinder the optimal implementation of digital marketing strategies. These findings suggest that digital-based empowerment of rural MSMEs requires a gradual, contextual, and sustainable approach. With appropriate and continuous mentoring, digital transformation can serve as a strategic instrument for enhancing MSME competitiveness and fostering rural economic independence

STRATEGY OF THE INVESTMENT AND ONE-DOOR INTEGRATED SERVICES DEPARTMENT IN IMPROVING THE QUALITY OF PUBLIC SERVICES, ESPECIALLY LICENSING AND NON-LICENSING SERVICES IN TANJUNGPINANG CITY IN 2025
This study aims to analyze the strategy of the Tanjungpinang City Investment and One-Stop Integrated Service Office in improving the quality of public services, especially in the licensing and non-licensing sectors in 2025. The background of the study is based on the importance of bureaucratic reform and improving the quality of public services as part of the state's responsibility in meeting the basic needs of citizens. The method used is a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques in the form of in-depth interviews, documentation, and literature studies. The results of the study indicate that the DPMPTSP strategy is divided into three main aspects according to Van Kooten's theory, namely Organizational Strategy which includes establishing a vision, mission, and institutional structure, Program Strategy consisting of innovative programs such as Risk-Based OSS, Jemput Bola, and One-Day Service, and Resource Strategy through HR training, improving service facilities, and strengthening information technology systems. Despite many achievements, DPMPTSP still faces challenges such as limited competent HR and suboptimal digital infrastructure. This study recommends strengthening cross-agency coordination, increasing HR capacity, and modernizing the public service system as further strategic steps

THE ROLE OF THE PUBLIC WORKS AND SPATIAL PLANNING DEPARTMENT IN HANDLING PUBLIC INFRASTRUCTURE AFTER NATURAL DISASTERS IN TANJUNGPINANG CITY IN 2024
This study analyzes the role of the Tanjungpinang City Public Works and Spatial Planning Agency in handling public infrastructure following natural disasters using Soekanto's role theory, which includes policy formulation, policy implementation, guidance, supervision, and evaluation. A descriptive qualitative research method was used with data collection techniques through interviews and documentation. The results show that policy formulation is carried out based on the regulatory framework of Law Number 24 of 2007 and Mayoral Regulation Number 49 of 2023 through the stages of receiving reports, field verification, damage identification, cross-agency coordination, and determining disaster status through a Mayoral Decree. Policy implementation is carried out through a self-management mechanism for small to medium damage and construction service providers for large-scale reconstruction with coordination involving the Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD), the Environmental Agency, the Regional Water Company (PDAM), and the National Road Agency. Guidance, supervision, and evaluation are carried out in layers through supervisory consultants and internal technical teams, with the evaluation results used as the basis for subsequent budget planning. Limitations were found in the budget aspect, geographical conditions, and limited community participation

THE ROLE OF VILLAGE GOVERNMENT IN EMPOWERING FARMERS' GROUPS IN LANCANG KUNING VILLAGE, BINTAN REGENCY, 2024
Empowering farmer groups is an effort to support agricultural development in villages. The village government plays a crucial role in empowering farmer groups to increase productivity and community independence. This study aims to analyze the role of the village government in empowering farmer groups in Lancang Kuning Village, Bintan Regency, using Ryaas Rasyid's role theory. This study employed a descriptive qualitative research method with data collection techniques in the form of interviews and documentation. The research informants consisted of the Village Head, Village Secretary, Head of the Village Government Section, Agricultural Extension Officers, Head of the BPD, Community Leaders, and Chairpersons and Members of Farmer Groups. The results show that as a regulator, the village government only issues Village Head Decrees to grant official status to farmer groups. As a dynamic agent, the village government actively involves farmer groups in discussions through deliberations, provides mentoring, training, and conducts field visits with the involvement of PPL as experts. As a facilitator, the village government strives to provide the support needed by farmer groups through the distribution of assistance such as seeds, fertilizers, and simple agricultural tools based on the proposals of each farmer group. Overall, the role of the village government in empowering farmer groups in Lancang Kuning Village has been implemented but is not yet optimal

IMPLEMENTATION OF THE DIGITAL VILLAGE APPLICATION (DIGIDES) IN IMPROVING ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES IN PIASAN VILLAGE, ANAMBAS ISLANDS REGENCY
This study analyzes the implementation of the Village Digital Application (DIGIDES) in improving administrative services in Piasan Village, Anambas Islands Regency using Merilee S. Grindle's policy implementation theory with six indicators: the interests of the target group, the benefits generated, the expected level of change, the position of policy makers, program implementers, and the resources deployed. A descriptive qualitative research method was used with data collection techniques through observation, interviews, and documentation. The results show that the implementation of DIGIDES has been effective with the fulfillment of all six indicators. The interests of the target group are met through alignment between the interests of the village government and the community, which is reflected in the increase in online services from 166 letters in 2024 to 182 letters in 2025. The resulting benefits include accelerated service delivery, cost efficiency, and community economic support through the promotion of MSMEs. The change from manual to digital systems has increased transparency and accountability in village government. The position of policy makers is structured with participatory decisions through village deliberations. Program implementers demonstrate good coordination with ongoing training. The resources deployed are relatively adequate although there are still limitations in community readiness and technology access.

EFFECTIVENESS OF PLASTIC WASTE MANAGEMENT PROGRAM INTO FUEL OIL IN TANJUNGPINANG CITY (CASE STUDY OF UPTD TPA GANET)
The plastic waste problem in Tanjungpinang City has increased along with the growth of community activities and the limitations of the existing waste management system. The local government, through the UPTD TPA Ganet, has implemented a program to convert plastic waste into fuel oil using pyrolysis technology as an effort to reduce waste volume. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the plastic waste into fuel oil management program in Tanjungpinang City. The research method used is a qualitative approach with a descriptive research type. Data collection was carried out through observation, interviews, and documentation with informants consisting of the Head of UPTD TPA Ganet, waste management officers, and the community. The analysis of program effectiveness refers to Subagyo's theory (2001) which includes program objectives, target accuracy, socialization, and program monitoring. The results of the study indicate that the program is ineffective. The objectives and target accuracy have been implemented well, but the program socialization has not been optimal due to limitations in legality and compliance with test result standards, as well as internal monitoring.

THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN SOCIAL SUPPORT AND POST-TRAUMATIC GROWTH IN EARLY ADULT BULLYING VICTIMS
This study aims to examine the relationship between social support and post-traumatic growth among early adult victims of bullying. The research used a quantitative method with a correlational design, involving participants aged 18-25 who had experienced bullying. The results showed a significant positive relationship between social support and post-traumatic growth (r = 0.992, p = 0.000). This study emphasizes the importance of social support in helping bullying victims overcome traumatic experiences and find new meaning in their lives. The study involved 104 participants, with demographic details showing a balanced gender distribution and age range. Instruments used were validated scales for post-traumatic growth and social support, with high reliability (Cronbach's alpha > 0.93). Data analysis confirmed normality and linearity, supporting the correlational findings. Implications include practical recommendations for victims to seek social support and for practitioners to develop interventions. Limitations include the cross-sectional design and potential self-report biases. Future research could incorporate qualitative methods or longitudinal studies to deepen understanding. Overall, the study contributes to psychological literature on trauma recovery in early adulthood
