Landslide Susceptibility and Educational Facility Exposure in Majalengka Regency: A GIS-Based Weighted Overlay Approach

Muhammad Hafidz Aditya Ramadhan — 2026-05-03

Landslides are a significant geomorphological hazard in Indonesia that can damage infrastructure and disrupt social activities. In Majalengka Regency, variations in topographic conditions result in different levels of landslide susceptibility, which may affect public facilities, including educational institutions. This study aims to analyze the spatial distribution of landslide susceptibility and evaluate the exposure of educational facilities using a GIS-based Weighted Overlay method with seven parameters. The results indicate that High and Very High susceptibility areas cover approximately 33,284 hectares and 17,388 hectares, respectively, and are mainly concentrated in the southern part of Majalengka Regency. Of the 672 educational facilities, 162 schools (24.1%) are located within landslide-prone zones, including 47 schools in Very High susceptibility areas. These findings highlight the influence of terrain conditions, rainfall, soil characteristics, and proximity to infrastructure in shaping landslide susceptibility. This study provides a spatially explicit evaluation of educational facility exposure, offering empirical baseline data to support local disaster mitigation strategies and school safety planning.

Youth Participation in Preserving the Jaranan Ritual Tradition in Malang, Indonesia

Cindy Khoirun Nisa — 2026-05-23

Jaranan art as part of local cultural heritage faces significant challenges in the era of globalization, particularly the declining interest of younger generations and the gradual shift of sacred ritual values within its performances. This study aims to analyze youth participation in preserving the ritual tradition of Jaranan Putro Gunung Sari and to examine the strategies employed to sustain its cultural continuity amid social change and modernization. Previous studies have largely focused on the symbolic meanings and general preservation of Jaranan culture, while limited attention has been given to the role of youth as key actors in maintaining the continuity of ritual traditions. This research employs a descriptive qualitative method through interviews, observations, and documentation. The findings reveal that the Jaranan ritual functions as a social fact that strengthens collective consciousness and community solidarity. Furthermore, youth involvement reflects a form of cultural agency in safeguarding local cultural identity through various preservation strategies, including intergenerational regeneration, collective deliberation, and the use of social media for cultural promotion. The study demonstrates that the sustainability of traditional arts depends not only on cultural inheritance but also on the active participation and adaptive capacity of younger generations in responding to contemporary social transformations. This research contributes to the discourse on cultural sociology and youth-based cultural preservation in traditional ritual arts.

Fanny Zahrotun Nadhifa — 2026-06-01

This study aims to develop Quartet Card media for IPAS learning on norms and local wisdom to strengthen cultural understanding and character education among fourth-grade elementary students at SDN 3 Sukosono. The study employed a Research and Development (R&D) approach using the ADDIE model, consisting of analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation stages. Data were collected through observation, questionnaires, and pre-test and post-test instruments involving 26 fourth-grade students, with validations conducted by material and media experts. Data analysis used descriptive qualitative and quantitative techniques, including validity, practicality, N-Gain, and Paired Sample T-Test analyses. The findings indicate that the developed media is highly feasible, as reflected by material expert validation (95.38%) and media expert validation (90.76%). Practicality results also showed positive responses from teachers (82%) and students (90.10%). Furthermore, the media effectively improved students’ understanding, demonstrated by the increase in average scores from 50.6 to 88.1, supported by a high N-Gain score (0.77) and a significance value of <0.001. This study highlights the novelty of integrating local wisdom values into Quartet Card-based IPAS learning as an interactive medium that supports culturally responsive learning and strengthens students’ understanding of social norms and character values in elementary education.

Designing Trade Cooperation under Regime Complexity: A Rational Design Analysis of the Indonesia-Korea Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement

Ilham Dary — 2026-05-30

This article examines the Indonesia–Korea Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (IK-CEPA), which entered into force on 1 January 2023, as a case of bilateral trade cooperation within an increasingly complex regional trade environment. The study investigates how the institutional design of IK-CEPA supports economic cooperation and governance between Indonesia and South Korea. Drawing on liberal institutionalism and rational design theory, the research employs qualitative content analysis of the agreement’s legal provisions, supported by implementation documents and official trade and investment data. The findings show that IK-CEPA extends beyond tariff liberalization by establishing formal coordination mechanisms, review procedures, and economic cooperation programs that facilitate policy coordination and capacity-building between the two countries. Early implementation indicates modest changes in bilateral trade performance but stronger continuity in investment cooperation, suggesting that the agreement’s governance functions may be more significant in the short term than its immediate trade effects. This study contributes to the literature by demonstrating how bilateral trade agreements can complement existing regional frameworks and strengthen economic governance through targeted institutional arrangements.

Empathy as a Predictor of Religious Moderation Among Adolescents: Evidence from Indonesian Senior High School Students

Darmawansyah — 2026-05-30

This study aims to determine the effect of empathy on religious moderation among students at State Senior High School 4 Palu. Religious moderation is crucial for adolescents in fostering attitudes of tolerance, inclusivity, and mutual respect. Furthermore, empathy is an internal psychological factor that warrants further investigation. This study employs a quantitative approach using a survey design. The population consists of 303 students, selected via random sampling with a margin of error of 0.05. The study utilizes the Perth Empathy Scale (PES) to assess empathy levels and religious moderation, focusing on national commitment, tolerance, anti-violence attitudes, and cultural/local accommodation. For data analysis, the researcher used linear regression with SPSS version 20. This study indicates that empathy contributes to religious moderation with a coefficient of 48.91%. This study suggests that fostering empathy in character education is a critical focus that should be prioritized. Additionally, several approaches and methods can be employed in character education, such as experiential learning and reflective learning with a focus on social interaction.
