Indonesia is an archipelagic country with a lot of potential that can be developed. Ironically, with all the natural wealth it possesses, it has yet to produce anything meaningful, especially for the advancement of the economic sector. Unfortunately, that progress has not been felt evenly by the Indonesian people. A study conducted by the International Institute for Management Development (IMD) states that Indonesia still has significant deficiencies in investment levels and talent development. This is also considered one of the reasons for the lack of competitiveness of human resources in Indonesia. Schools, as educational institutions, are required to provide education that can enhance the quality of their graduates so that they can become high-quality future employees. The method in the research uses a systematic literature review, which involves a systematic literature review aimed at collecting secondary data in the form of scientific works, journals, and other relevant sources. The research results show that edupreneurship is important to implement because it has a positive impact on the development of students, particularly their skills as entrepreneurs. The development includes progress in activity, enthusiasm in participating in learning activities, and presenting innovative and creative ideas in entrepreneurship. Students also experience an increase in self-confidence, followed by the emergence of task- and result-oriented skills, a willingness to take risks, and the development of leadership qualities in students.

The financial condition plays a key role in the functioning of a credit institution, since its analysis reveals the bank’s ability to finance its current activities and maintain solvency, which confirms the relevance of conducting assessment diagnostics in terms of determining the financial stability of commercial banks. Indicators diagnosing financial stability are the most important components of the characteristic of the financial component and performance results of a commercial bank. The financial stability of a commercial bank provides it with significant advantages in the market, which is expressed in the ability to attract additional volumes of financial resources, strengthen its position in the market, increase the share of deposits of individuals (the main source of banking resources) and, as a result, expand the scale of investment activities.
The purpose of the study is to develop and improve methodological approaches to the analysis of the financial stability of commercial banks. In the framework of the study, the object of study is the financial condition of the banking system, as well as the stability of commercial banks in the context of macroeconomic instability. In the course of the work, existing methods and tools used to assess the financial stability of banks were studied, which made it possible to identify their main shortcomings. Based on the conducted analysis, an improved methodological approach is proposed, which includes a comprehensive analysis of the financial position of credit institutions, providing a more accurate and effective assessment of their stability.

Published: January 2025

The design and construction of a solarpowered, temperature-controlled e-uniform for troops is presented in this study with the goal of enhancing their comfort and safety in inclement weather. For soldiers who frequently serve in harsh settings, the inability to predict weather patterns due to climate change presents serious difficulties. Conventional military clothes offer minimal protection, but they are ineffective at controlling body temperature, particularly in harsh environments. To overcome these obstacles, the suggested e-uniform combines a temperature sensor, microcontroller, solar power source, heating (LEDs), cooling (DC motor), and GPS tracking. The soldier's body temperature is continuously monitored by the temperature sensor, and the microcontroller uses this information to turn on heating or cooling systems as necessary. The soldier is kept at the ideal body temperature by using LEDs to generate heat and a DC motor to help with cooling. Because the e-uniform is solarpowered, it is ideal for usage in distant or energy-constrained locations, such military operations in rural areas. The uniform has GPS tracking in addition to thermal comfort, allowing for real-time position monitoring for improved safety and coordination. The lightweight, long-lasting e-uniform is made to minimize any negative effects on the environment while offering comfort and protection. This idea provides an environmentally sustainable solution to energy demands in remote regions while also ensuring the soldier's well-being in a variety of climes.

Published: January 2025

In recent years, agriculture has grappled with significant challenges arising from damage caused by wild animals. Traditional crop protection methods, such as fencing and manual surveillance, are often inefficient, labor-intensive, and costly. This paper presents a Smart Crop Protection System powered by the Internet of Things (IoT) to address this issue and safeguard agricultural fields against wild animal intrusions. The proposed system integrates IoT-enabled sensors, including motion detectors and environmental sensors, to monitor fields continuously and detect animal presence in real-time. The collected data is analyzed using an intelligent algorithm that identifies potential threats and triggers immediate countermeasures, such as activating deterrent devices like sound alarms or flashing lights to ward off animals. Furthermore, the system includes a mobile application for remote monitoring, enabling farmers to receive real-time alerts and control deterrent mechanisms from anywhere. By reducing dependency on manual labor and enhancing the efficiency of animal deterrents, this smart solution aims to minimize crop losses, boost agricultural productivity, and support sustainable farming practices. Designed to be cost-effective, scalable, and adaptable to diverse agricultural landscapes, the proposed system offers a modern and practical approach to addressing a longstanding agricultural challenge.

Published: January 2025

Under the general understanding of the "Holovan's House" complex, this article examines the buildings and structures along with the land on which they are situated. The construction of the sculptor's own two-story brick residential house, which became the main element of the complex and gave it its name, was started by the renowned contemporary Ukrainian sculptor Mykola Holovan (1943 – 2022) in the 1980 s. Today, the history of the Holovan's House complex spans over 40 years. One of the reasons for this prolonged construction is the sculptor's creative approach, as he handcrafted various sculptural elements throughout the building process, aiming to incorporate them into the structural solutions for the house's enclosing constructions. These include lintels above the entrance doors, numerous decorative elements on the exterior walls, and the roof. The artist also applied this principle when arranging the house's storm drains sewerage, using handmade sculptural elements. Overall, most of the construction work on the buildings and structures, improvement of the territory was carried out manually by the sculptor. For Mykola Holovan, this was a continuous creative process. However, this also became one of the reasons for the partial incompletion of the Holovan's House complex, with the sculptor expressing in interviews his hope that his descendants would complete the work.
The preliminary review of the Holovan's House complex revealed that the partial incompletion of certain construction works related to the installation of the storm drains sewerage for the buildings, structures and territory would have a negative impact on the technical condition of the residential house. Specifically, one of the reasons for the damage to the enclosing structures of the house, identified during the inspection, is the negative influence of the existing storm drains sewerage. In this context, the article justifies the methodology for determining measures to install the storm drains sewerage for the buildings, structures and territory. This methodology is based on the belief that a methodologically sound approach to making technical decisions in construction, reconstruction and restoration will provide protection against the gradual damage and deterioration of the house's structures.

In sport, anxiety is one of the psychological factors that prevent the athlete’s optimal performance. The athlete’s anxiety filled with negative emotion or failure in completing a task, achieving goals, and facing obstacles. Literature has stated that, poor coaching behaviors affecting athlete’s anxiety by emotional problems experienced in the sport. However, the existing literature on the influence of coaching effectiveness and the coach-athlete relationship does not investigate specifically on anxiety. Therefore, this study was performed to analyses the literature regarding the influence of coaching effectiveness and coach-athlete relationship on anxiety among athletes. The systematic review literature has been conducted. In the time frame of 10 years, fifteen studies in form of articles and journals meet the selection criteria were analyzed. The analyses revealed that athletes are less anxious when trained by supportive coach behavior. Coaching effectiveness showed that coaches positively affect the learning and performance of the athletes. Having a good relationship with the coach gives the best chances for success in performance. The quality of the relationship between coach and athlete is found to influence the physical and psychological well-being, motivation, and confidence of the athlete. Besides, the performance of the athletes is based on how effective their coaches to influence the athletes and how they work together. Thus, do coaches stand out as the fundamental figure in issues of athlete’s anxiety, and should coaching effectiveness and coach-athlete relationship be able outstanding in examining the anxiety among athletes?

Published: January 2025

This study was meant to identify a certain level of knowledge in using herbs amongst coaches and athletes. Herbs are a natural product that can increase human body performance. For example, most people know that herbs like ginseng if taken in small measures help people in sexual performance, and that ulam raja can be used as an ingredient in beauty products. However, they are not aware of other secret properties in herbs that can increase athletes’ performance or human body metabolism. Data were collected from 50 coaches (from MSN) and 30 athletes (from UiTM). All 50 coaches were represented by 25 males and 25 females, as for the athletes (individual game), they were divided into 15 males and 15 females. The data was collected using ‘Perception of Using Herbs amongst Coaches and Athletes’ and also interviews. All data have been analyzed using descriptive analysis. We have concluded that most of the respondents are not aware of or have no good knowledge about herbs being used in sports to improve athletes’ performance. The percentage of the herbs-knowledge survey has shown 56.7% (17) as undecided. In the survey, 33.3% (1) gave no as an answer, whereas others who responded with yes were 40% (12). From this finding, all participants mainly assume that herbs can only increase the release of sexual hormones and can influence sexual potency; but instead, they should think that taking herbs can also improve human body performance. Nevertheless, this study provides an understanding of how herbs can be taken and applied as a cure or remedy in sports.

In field hockey, penalty shoot-outs are one of the ways used to determine which team advances to the next level or wins a match after a game end in a tie. The goal of this study was to see how often players used certain abilities and tactics when taking penalty shots. On five attempts, six (N = 6) young MSSM hockey players in the attacking position have made penalty shots. Kinovea software was used to examine thirty video clips. The findings of the study show that the sequence of frequency of skills that are often used by players is as follows; Indian Dribble; 1. High reverse pull (IDHR), 2. Forehand pull (IDFP), 3. Turning right-left (IDTR-L), 4. Lifting right (IDLR), 5. Spinning rightleft (IDSR-L); Dummy; 1. Dummy forehand pull (DFP), 2. Dummy high reverse pull (DHR), 3. Dummy long grip (DLG) and Dummy slapping (DSL), 4. Dummy short grip (DSG), Dummy high reverse (DHR), and Dummy orient push (DOP). Tactical analysis showed that 80% of the frequency of entering the “D” area was from the Strong side direction (KDSS) and 20% from the Wrong side direction (KDWS) with 66% using Zone A and 34% using Zone B. For scoring skill techniques, sequence on the overall average percentage is as follows; 1. Low reverse (LR), 2. Scoop (S), 3. Drag push (DP), Orient push (OP) and Long grip (LG), 4. Tap push (TP), 5. Slapping (SL), 6. The utilisation of hockey skills, methods, and tactics for penalty shots-out among young MSSM hockey players provide a very useful information.

Published: January 2025

Fatigue is being said as one of the factors contributing to the deterioration of skill performance in the sport of tennis. Therefore, this study was conducted to examine the effects and association of fatigue to the service shot consistency. This study involved 2 intermediate level tennis players who were 16 years old. Study subjects had to undergo 3 testing sessions on different days. At each testing session, subjects had to undergo the Protokol Intervensi Cetusan Keletihan (PICK) until volitional fatigue was reached. Next, subjects were required to undergo the protokol Pengujian Ketepatan Servis Tenis (PKST) to test service accuracy during fatigue. The fatigue achievement indicator for this study was based on the Rate of Perceived Exertion (RPE) feedback. The findings of the study found that the mean heart rates of the subjects for the three sessions were 147.9 ± 6.3 bpm, 133.1 ± 7.6 bpm and 146.2 ± 14.9 bpm. Paired T-test analysis showed no significant difference between the consistency of service shots before and after subjects reached maximum fatigue. However, the findings of the study found that service consistency was low when players were in fatigue and this association had a very strong and significant negative correlation (r = 1.00; p <0.01). These findings prove that fatigue has a clear correlation with service shot performance, especially for intermediate level players.

Purpose of the Study: This study aims to evaluate the interest of biology students in attending general education courses, specifically religious subjects, while exploring the impact of various factors such as gender, academic background, and extracurricular involvement. By doing so, it seeks to better understand how these factors influence students' engagement in interdisciplinary education.
Methodology: The research adopts a mixed-methods approach. It begins with quantitative analysis, employing descriptive statistics to assess general interest levels, followed by qualitative validation through interviews with seven selected informants. The study population consists of 131 active biology students in the 2023/2024 academic year, with a final sample of 100 after data cleaning. The sampling method used was total sampling to ensure broad representation.
Principal Findings: The findings reveal a variety of interest levels among biology students in religious subjects, with no significant differences based on gender, academic semester, high school major, or extracurricular involvement in religious activities or organizations. However, the school of origin emerged as a significant factor, indicating that students' previous educational experiences play a crucial role in shaping their engagement with religious subjects.
Novelty/Originality of this Study: This research introduces a novel perspective by uncovering the influence of a student’s educational background specifically, their school origin on their interest in interdisciplinary religious education. It offers new insights into how prior schooling experiences contribute to shaping students’ academic and personal interests, particularly within the context of general education courses, thus providing valuable implications for curriculum design in higher education.

Purpose of the study: Project-based learning (PBL) is an effective pedagogical strategy for climate change education. This paper investigates the support early scholars receive and the challenges they face while conducting educational interventions using project-based learning (PBL) pedagogy for high school students’ environment and climate change education.
Methodology: A collaborative autoethnographic approach was used to analyze the narratives from the projects conducted by two early scholars regarding their experiences educating high school students on environmental and climate education in Pittsburgh and Indiana, in Western Pennsylvania, US. Convenience sampling was used in this study. This research's primary data collection method includes personal narratives, reflective journals, and field notes accumulated throughout the project. A thematic deductive qualitative analysis was conducted.
Main Findings: The findings demonstrate the effectiveness of PBL supported by institutional and community partnerships. The narratives reveal that universities and administrators have greater outreach capabilities than independent project leaders. Additionally, the study found that teachers’ contributions were instrumental in enhancing student engagement. Collaboration between local universities, schools, and community organizations creates opportunities for project leaders that might otherwise be challenging to access.
Novelty/Originality of this Study: The study offers valuable strategies for project leaders to implement PBL successfully in diverse educational settings.

Authors: Rahman Ali
Published: January 2025

Tafsir Al-Qur'an penting sekali karena menjadi jalan untuk memahami kalamullah, atau Al-Qur'an, sebagai pedoman hidup manusia. Tafsir Al-Qur'an memiliki banyak keutamaan, di antaranya: membantu memahami makna ayat-ayat Al-Qur'an, membantu memahami hikmah dan pesan yang terkandung dalam Al-Qur'an, membantu mengambil pelajaran dan inspirasi dalam menghadapi berbagai situasi kehidupan, membantu memperdalam pemahaman tentang kehidupan Rasulullah SAW dan para sahabat, dan lain-lain. Tafsir Al-Qur'an merupakan alat untuk menafsirkan ayat-ayat Al-Qur'an. Secara harfiah, tafsir artinya menerangkan. Setiap ayat Al-Qur'an memiliki tafsir tersendiri, sehingga tidak semua terjemahan ayat Al-Qur'an dapat dipahami secara langsung. Salah seorang mufassir di abad modern tahun 1960 an berasal dari Tunisia yaitu Ibnu Asyur, beliau adalah seorang ulama ahlussunnah wal jamaah yang berakidah mengikuti akidah Abu Hasan Al-Asy'ari. Kitab tafsirnya yang berjudul al-Tahrir wa al-Tanwir dianggap sebagai ensiklopedi tafsir yang penting untuk dikaji. Ibnu Asyur menggunakan corak ilmiah dalam menjelaskan makna ayat Al-Qur'an, beliau menggunakan teori-teori ilmiah kontemporer untuk menjelaskan ayat Al-Qur'an, namun tidak memaksakan teori tersebut, hal yang baru dibandingkan dengan tafsir-tafsir yang ada sebelumnya. Tafsir al-Tahrir wa al-Tanwir dipandang dipengaruhi oleh epistemologi barat, maka penulis dalam penelitiannya ini bermaksud untuk menggali lebih dalam konvergensi epistemologi barat dalam tafsir Ibnu Asyur yang atau tafsir al-Tahrir wa al-Tanwir.
