Antibacterial Activity of Earthworm Extract (Lumbricus rubellus) from Organic Farmland in Bali Agaist Streptococcus pyogenes Bacteria
type: item
description: Introduction: Bacterial infections are still a global health problem. Severe bacterial infections can lead to morbidity and mortality. Streptococcus pyogenes (S.pyogenes) is one of the bacteria that causes health problems including pharyngitis, necrotizing fasciitis, and even toxic shock syndrome. Antibiotics are used to treat bacterial infections, but the incidence of antibiotic resistance is currently very worrying. Earthworm extract (Lumbricus rubellus) contains various substances that have the potential to be antibacterial, one of which is lumbricin-1. Aim: This study aims to test the antibacterial activity of earthworm extract (Lumbricus rubellus) from organic farmland in Bali against S. pyogenes bacteria. Method: This study is an experimental study. Twenty-five samples were divided into 5 groups, namely the negative control group, positive control, and 3 extract treatment groups (50%, 75%, and 100%). The method used was the disc diffusion test method. Results: The results of the observation found the inhibitory power of earthworm extract (Lumbricus rubellus) from organic farmland in Bali against S. pyogenes bacteria at various extract concentrations (p <0.05). The inhibitory ability of earthworm extract (Lumbricus rubellus) from organic farmland in Bali against S. pyogenes is in the strong category. Conclusion: Earthworm extract (Lumbricus rubellus) from organic farmland in Bali has strong inhibitory ability against S. pyogenes bacteria and the effect is found to be dose dependent. Contribution: This research is expected to be a reference and basis for finding new sources of antibiotics from nature and developing earthworms from organic farmland in Bali towards phytopharmaceuticals

TRADITIONAL MARKET PRICE NEGOTIATIONS IN BALI: AN ETHNOGRAPHIC ANALYSIS OF PARTICIPATORY PRICE-SETTING PROCESSES
type: item
description: The prices of goods sold in traditional Balinese markets often reflect mutual agreements between sellers and buyers, based on more complex considerations than simply cost and profit. This process adds value to sellers, who can maintain long-term relationships with buyers, and to buyers who feel valued in these social interactions. This study uses a qualitative research design, namely participatory ethnography with a phenomenological approach that aims to understand the practice of price negotiation as a meaningful social practice in the context of Balinese traditional markets, and to map the participatory price determination process (actors, strategies, norms, and institutional context). Data were collected through participant observation and in-depth interviews with traders and buyers in traditional markets. The results indicate that, first, prices for basic commodities are relatively uniform among sellers due to unwritten agreements and common sources of production. Second, there are no standard rules in the negotiation mechanism; everything takes place based on an agreement between seller and buyer, which is based on trust and communication skills. Third, despite the rapid growth of modern markets and online shopping, traditional markets remain the community's choice due to their affordability, proximity, and inherent social value. Fourth, bargaining activities are the main attraction of traditional markets because they provide space for active participation for buyers while strengthening social relations with traders. Theoretically, these findings confirm the relevance of the concept of embeddedness in explaining the link between economic practices and social norms, social exchange theory in understanding the reciprocal relations between sellers and buyers, and habitus in describing societal preferences that are formed over generations. This study concludes that traditional markets in Bali are not just arenas for the exchange of goods, but also socio-cultural sp…

WEAVING EFFICIENCY AMID LIMITATIONS: THE SURVIVAL NARRATIVE OF MICRO ARTISANS IN BALI
type: item
description: Micro craft-based businesses in Bali face a dual pressure in the form of limited human resources, fluctuating market demands, and cultural ties in preserving hereditary businesses. This study aims to explore the survival strategies of micro artisans amid these constraints, focusing on self-developed efficiency practices. The method used is qualitative with a phenomenological approach, involving in-depth interviews and field observations of 12 artisans in various craft centers in Bali. The research results indicate that the main strategies adopted are enhancing the skills of all human resources, reorganizing workflows to be more efficient, and implementing night overtime to address labor shortages and ensure timely completion of work. Moreover, business sustainability is driven not only by economic necessity due to the difficulty of obtaining formal employment, but also by cultural factors, such as the continuation of family businesses across generations as part of family and community identity. These findings affirm that efficiency at the microenterprise level is not merely the result of technical innovation, but also the product of a combination of adaptive capacity (resilience), institutional legitimacy, and cultural values inherent in production practices. However, efficiency practices such as working late at night have the potential to create health risks and reduce long-term productivity if not balanced with external support. The implications of this study highlight the need for culturally sensitive interventions, such as community-based training programs, simple workflow redesigns, micro social protection, and regeneration strategies that encourage young people to continue the business with innovations that still respect tradition. Thus, the results of this study contribute to the theoretical understanding of micro-enterprise resilience while also offering policy recommendations to strengthen the sustainability of traditional Balinese crafts in the modern era.

Michelle Kadarusman’s Views on Slum Areas and Spatial Justice in Girl of the Southern Sea
type: item
description: This study examines Michelle Kadarusman’s Girl of the Southern Sea as a literary reimagining of spatial injustice and gendered marginality within Jakarta’s slum environments. Drawing upon Soja’s spatial theory and Spivak’s postcolonial feminism, the analysis explores how the novel constructs female agency through the intersections of physical space, imagination, and social resistance. By integrating qualitative textual analysis and thematic coding, the study identifies the ways Kadarusman redefines the slum from a site of deprivation into one of resilience and transformation. The findings demonstrate how literary narratives can expose urban inequality and generate ethical awareness regarding the lived experiences of marginalized women in postcolonial contexts. As an interdisciplinary dialogue on gender, spatial justice, and literary urbanism, this study advances the role of literature in cultivating inclusive imaginaries and gender sensitive-policymaking.

title: Exploring the Pathways and Practical Analysis of Digital-Intelligent Transformation in Application-Oriented Higher Education: A Case Study of the "Technology-Discipline-Application" Integration Model at Qingdao Hengxing University of Science and Technolog
description: Faced with the wave of digital-intelligent transformation in education, how application-oriented universities can break through the disconnection between “technological instrumentalization” and “traditional teaching” has become a key issue in educational reform. This study takes Qingdao Hengxing University of Science and Technology as a typical case, proposing and validating a “Technology–Discipline–Application” three-dimensional integration model driven by “authentic application.” This model establishes a digital foundation through building the “Hengxing Capacity Platform + high-end experimental centers” (Technology), restructures the curriculum system around “project-based and studio-based approaches” (Discipline), and embeds real-world commercial projects such as “brand operations, film and television production, and live-streaming e-commerce” (Application), thereby achieving deep integration of industry and education. The study finds that using “authentic application” as a value anchor can reversely reconstruct the teaching system and organizational model; the dual-base architecture of “platform + scenarios” effectively promotes the synergistic empowerment of technology, knowledge, and ability; and the educational ecology of “teachers as mentors, students as creators, and works as products” significantly enhances the quality and adaptability of talent cultivation. This research provides replicable practical pathways and theoretical insights for resolving the structural contradictions in the digital-intelligent transformation of application-oriented universities.

Concept Construction of Embodied Learning Based on "Life-Practice"
type: item
description: Returning to the body is a key path for education to revert to its essence, responding to the era's value demands for human development. Current theoretical research on Embodied Learning focuses on the integrity of cognition, the body, and the environment, yet there is still a need to expand its theoretical perspective. This study adopts the literature research method, classroom observation method, and case study method to construct the concept of Embodied Learning based on "Life-Practice" Pedagogy. With a multi-disciplinary examination of the body as its theoretical foundation, the study clarifies the internal relationship between "Life-Practice" Pedagogy and Embodied Learning, and extracts the essential characteristics of Embodied Learning: taking the body of a concrete individual as the subject, taking the overall organic interaction between the body and the environment as the approach, taking the body's perceptual practice as the driving force, taking neural mechanisms and perceptual experience as the core, and aiming at the development of human life. Finally, it proposes practical paths for classroom Embodied Learning from the practical perspective, providing new ideas for the theory and practice of Embodied Learning.

Evaluating Business Curriculum in Applied Universities: A CIPP-Based Framework
type: item
description: In response to China’s initiative to advance “New Humanities” and “New Business,” this study highlights the urgent need for a systematic framework to evaluate innovative curricula such as the interdisciplinary “Big Business” course in applied undergraduate institutions. The primary aim is to construct a comprehensive evaluation system based on the CIPP (Context, Input, Process, Product) model to diagnose implementation challenges and provide actionable guidance for improvement. Adopting a qualitative design research approach, the framework was developed through a systematic literature review, indicator extraction and synthesis, and logical validation. The finalized system encompasses four primary and ten secondary indicators aligned with the CIPP dimensions. Its application reveals several systemic challenges, including misalignment between curriculum objectives and content, insufficient investment in teaching resources, imbalances between student engagement and cognitive load, and limited alignment with industry needs. The study concludes that holistic, system-level reforms are essential for ensuring the curriculum’s effectiveness. The key contribution lies in offering a validated and practical tool for educators to improve curriculum quality, as well as a theoretical foundation for evaluating complex interdisciplinary programs.

To explore the educational methods and practical exploration of changing sub-health psychology among college students
type: item
description: Against the backdrop of the rapid development of education, the issue of suboptimal mental health among university students has become a significant obstacle affecting their growth and academic development. Suboptimal mental health, as a transitional state between health and mental illness, though not meeting clinical diagnostic criteria, can significantly undermine students' learning ability, social adaptability, and quality of life. Without timely intervention, it may trigger serious psychological issues such as anxiety and depression, and even affect their career and physical and mental well-being. This study systematically analyzes the causes, characteristics, and impact mechanisms of suboptimal mental health among contemporary university students from social, family, educational, and individual psychological perspectives, and proposes targeted educational intervention strategies. The study indicates that the main manifestations of suboptimal mental health in university students include difficulties in social adaptation, moral cognition imbalance, internet dependency, and weak resilience. Its causes include the impact of diversified values during social transformation, competition pressure from the market economy, overprotective or excessively high parental expectations, insufficient university mental health education resources, and a lack of experience in overcoming setbacks in students' personal growth. Moreover, teachers' mental states subtly influence students. Some teachers, due to title evaluations or teaching pressure, exhibit emotional outbursts, causing tension in teacher-student relationships and forming a vicious cycle. To address these issues, the study proposes the following intervention pathways: First, build a supportive campus environment by beautifying the campus, organizing cultural and sports activities, and establishing mental health websites to create a positive cultural atmosphere. Second, improve the mental health service system by establi…

Innovation of Teaching Mode in Adult Higher Continuing Education in the Internet Era
type: item
description: In the context of adult higher continuing education, the adoption of blended learning models has gained increasing momentum in the Internet era. This paper examines innovative teaching practices and their effectiveness in adult higher education institutions through a systematic review of recent literature (2020–2024). The findings indicate that 82% of institutions have integrated blended learning approaches, with 68% reporting notable improvements in student engagement and academic performance. The predominant strategies include flipped classrooms (47%), online modules combined with face-to-face workshops (35%), and digital interactive platforms (18%). These models enhance active learning, provide flexibility, and address the unique needs of adult learners who balance education with professional and personal commitments. In addition, experiential and participatory approaches, such as micro-classroom discussions, simulation-based learning, and competitive case teaching, have demonstrated strong potential for fostering critical thinking and practical skill development. However, challenges remain in the underutilization of advanced digital tools, such as virtual reality and interactive learning platforms, due to technological barriers and digital literacy gaps among both instructors and learners. This study highlights the importance of aligning teaching strategies with adult learning theories and contextual needs. It emphasizes the necessity for continuous professional development for educators, broader integration of digital tools, and diversified assessment methods to ensure relevance and authenticity in evaluating adult learners’ competencies. While immediate benefits of blended learning are evident, further longitudinal studies are needed to explore long-term impacts on learners’ career advancement and lifelong learning trajectories. Overall, the study contributes to the discourse on educational transformation in adult continuing education, offering insights for po…

Research on the Integration and Development of AI Technology and Art in the New Era
type: item
description: Driven by the rapid iteration of intelligent technologies (e.g., AI, virtual reality, real-time rendering), the animation industry is shifting from traditional creation to intelligent production. The growing synergy and contradictions between technological innovation and artistic expression make their in-depth integration a key to high-quality industrial development—this forms the study’s core background. This research aims to analyze the internal logic, existing problems, and optimization paths of such integration, providing theoretical and practical support for animation creation and industry growth. Methodologically, it combines literature research (to sort domestic and international tech-art integration theories), case analysis (e.g., Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse for real-time rendering, Love, Death & Robots for AI-assisted scripting, to deconstruct integration modes), and expert interviews (to collect insights from creation teams and R&D personnel). Results show intelligent technologies have widely penetrated character generation, scene construction, motion capture, and post-rendering, boosting efficiency and visual appeal. However, issues emerge: excessive tech use weakens artistic individuality, algorithm logic conflicts with aesthetics, and technical ethics disputes arise. Conclusions highlight that integration must follow “technology serving art”—via building tech-art collaboration mechanisms, strengthening interdisciplinary talent training, and improving ethics norms—to achieve dynamic balance. Contributions include enriching the tech-art integration theoretical system (offering new interdisciplinary perspectives for animation research) and providing actionable strategies for creators, aiding industrial innovation, and informing policy-making.

AI-Aesthetic TPACK: Redesigning Art Teacher Education in the Age of Generative AI
type: item
description: Generative text-to-image systems lower technical barriers to visual production but can also short-circuit learning if used end-to-end. This paper proposes AI-Aesthetic TPACK, a framework that aligns Human-in-the-Loop (HITL) and Human-out-of-the-Loop (HOTL) workflows to Leder’s five stages of aesthetic processing (perceptual analysis, implicit memory integration, explicit classification, cognitive mastering, evaluation) and operationalizes it as a classroom toolkit: (a) a behavior-anchored competency rubric for teacher education; (b) a Process-Based Evidence Package (PBEP) template that makes creative processes visible and assessable; and (c) a course-level AI use & disclosure policy. Using a PRISMA-ScR–guided scoping synthesis, we distill design patterns that preserve stage-specific learning while leveraging AI for ideation and iteration. A 90-minute micro- trial with three experienced art instructors shows moderate inter-rater agreement when applying the rubric to a PBEP-documented student project (κoverall = 0.65; κdimension = 0.58–0.73). Qualitative debriefs reveal consistent pain points (e.g., ambiguity around licensing of texture assets) and lead to a shared casebook for future calibration. Contributions are: (1) a stage-aligned mapping of AI interventions with scaffold/shortcut conditions; (2) a ready-to-use toolkit (rubric + PBEP + policy) with evidence anchors; and (3) initial usability/consistency signals for short-format teaching. We conclude with boundary conditions, cultural considerations, and a data/materials availability statement to support replication and local adaptation.

Revisiting Higher Education in Malaysia: Policy, Quality, and Student Outcomes
type: item
description: This paper revisits Malaysia’s higher education system through the lenses of policy, quality assurance, and student outcomes. Over the last two decades, Malaysia has transitioned from a developing tertiary sector to a diversified system encompassing public, private, and transnational institutions. Government initiatives such as the Malaysia Education Blueprint 2015–2025 (Higher Education) have sought to enhance access, equity, and global competitiveness. Yet, persistent gaps remain between policy intentions and educational realities—particularly in graduate employability, quality disparity, and inclusivity. Using a qualitative research design supported by document analysis and semi-structured interviews, this study synthesizes evidence from national policies, accreditation reports, and student perspectives. Findings reveal that while quality assurance mechanisms—led by the Malaysian Qualifications Agency (MQA)—have institutionalized accountability, they have not consistently translated into improved learning outcomes. Many universities continue to emphasize compliance rather than innovation, resulting in limited pedagogical renewal. Moreover, socio-economic disparities and uneven digital access continue to shape student success and employability trajectories. The paper concludes that Malaysia’s higher education transformation requires renewed emphasis on evidence-based policymaking, adaptive governance, and learner-centred reform. By linking policy frameworks with lived student experiences, the research contributes to a deeper understanding of how quality and policy coherence can enhance higher education outcomes in emerging economies.

Research on Social Practice Activities in Preschool Education Major
type: item
description: The implementation of social practice activities in preschool education not only aims to thoroughly implement the Party's educational policies centered on "fostering virtue through education" but also serves as a core pathway to enhance the holistic development of preschool education students—specifically promoting the coordinated improvement of their professional literacy, practical operation capabilities, and sense of dedication to the preschool cause. Against the backdrop of society’s growing demand for high-quality preschool talents, numerous universities and colleges have incorporated preschool education into their undergraduate or vocational curricula to meet market needs. However, a prominent problem persists: most graduates of these programs lack proficiency in practical skills (such as organizing games, designing age-appropriate enlightenment courses, and responding to sudden childcare needs) and often show insufficient dedication to long-term engagement in preschool education, which directly affects their adaptability to kindergarten work. In response, more educational institutions and kindergartens have begun to explore the in-depth integration of social practice activities into kindergarten teaching and talent cultivation. This paper focuses on investigating the current status, existing bottlenecks, and effective integration models of social practice activities for preschool education students in kindergartens. Through methods including questionnaires, on-site observations of kindergartens, interviews with teachers and students, and case analyses, it summarizes practical implementation approaches (e.g., university-kindergarten co-built practice bases, project-based social practice) and diversified formats. The research aims to provide valuable references for optimizing the preschool education talent training system, improving the practical teaching quality of colleges, and advancing related academic research in this field.

Preschool Interventions for Self-Regulation: A Global Meta-Analytic Synthesis
type: item
description: The preschool years are a critical period for developing self-regulation in children. These skills predict future prosocial behavior, peer acceptance, and conflict management. They also form a key foundation for long-term academic success and mental health. Many interventions aim to build these skills. However, their effectiveness varies greatly across different cultures and socioeconomic settings. A comprehensive validation is still lacking. This study uses quantitative methods to synthesize global evidence. It examines how social-emotional learning (SEL) interventions affect the self-regulation of preschool children. The goal is to assess the overall impact of these interventions. It also identifies key influencing factors. These factors include intervention intensity, staff qualifications, family socioeconomic status, and cultural orientation. This meta-analysis followed the PRISMA 2020 and MOOSE guidelines. It included 9 intervention studies published between 2010 and 2024 from 2 international databases. These studies involved over 3,700 preschool children. The primary analysis used the Paule-Mandel random-effects model. Other methods were also used to ensure robustness. The combined effect size was Hedges’g = 0.48. This indicates a moderate- to-large positive effect of SEL interventions on self-regulation. Further analysis revealed key findings. Higher intervention intensity led to better outcomes. Teacher-led implementation was effective. Family involvement played a positive role. Interventions in collectivist cultural contexts showed stronger effects. Notably, interventions had a compensatory effect for children from low socioeconomic backgrounds. For children from high socioeconomic status families, the interventions provided an enrichment effect. The results confirm that structured SEL interventions effectively improve self-regulation in preschoolers. Beyond traditional SEL frameworks, this study proposes an integrated model. This model combines ecological,…

The Impact of Artificial Intelligence on the Legal Field
type: item
description: Artificial Intelligence (AI) has experienced exponential growth in recent decades, with its influence permeating various sectors, including the legal field. This study aims to systematically explore the multifaceted impacts of AI on legal practice, judicial decision- making, legal education, and related ethical-legal challenges. Adopting qualitative research methods, the study integrates literature review (covering 2018–2023 Chinese and English core journals and authoritative reports), case analysis (e.g., U.S. COMPAS bail algorithm, China’s Beijing Internet Court AI system), and data synthesis (from official sources like the Supreme People’s Court of China and the American Bar Association). Findings reveal that AI significantly enhances efficiency in legal retrieval (via NLP and machine learning), improves the accuracy of case analysis (through pattern recognition in historical cases), expands access to legal consultation (via intelligent chatbots), and innovates legal education (through VR/AR immersive learning). However, AI application also raises critical issues: algorithmic bias in judicial decisions, unclear legal status of AI entities, and potential displacement of legal practitioners. To address these challenges, the study proposes policy recommendations, including establishing AI judicial oversight mechanisms and formulating technology-neutral legal norms. This research contributes to bridging the gap between AI technological development and legal system adaptation, providing theoretical guidance for the sustainable integration of AI and law.

From Listening to Healing Music Appreciation Education as a Pathway to College Students’ Emotional Adjustment
type: item
description: In the context of intense social competition, mental health issues among college students have garnered widespread societal attention. Music appreciation education serves as a vital pathway for mental health and quality education in higher education institutions. Consequently, how to achieve effective emotional adjustment through music appreciation education has become a significant topic in contemporary university mental health. This study deconstructs music appreciation education to construct an emotional adjustment pathway within it. Firstly, the study establishes emotional adjustment as the orientation of music appreciation education. It positions music appreciation content as the foundation for emotional adjustment, the instructional process as the pathway for its implementation, and the evaluation of music appreciation education as the key to emotional adjustment. Secondly, this study designs a four-tier model for emotional adjustment in music appreciation education: emotional perception and recognition, emotional adjustment and experience, psychological adaptation and stress management, and personality development and core competency enhancement. Building upon this, an evaluation system oriented toward emotional adjustment is constructed. This research provides theoretical support and practical pathways for integrating music appreciation education with mental health education in higher education, holding positive significance for promoting the comprehensive development of college students.

A Study on the Application of Situational Teaching Methods in Cultivating Interest in Physical Education among First-Grade Primary School Students in the Context of Ideological and Political Education
type: item
description: According to the principles of the "Physical Education and Health Curriculum Standards (2022 Edition)", physical education should be optimized and contextualized to make even monotonous activities like walking and running lively and engaging. Due to its unique nature, physical education possesses an educational function that cannot be replaced by other subjects. Situational teaching methods, by simulating real-life scenarios, not only enhance students' interest in sports but also integrate them with ideological and political elements. This not only aligns with the requirements of educational reform in the new era but also offers a new approach to primary school education. This study involved first-grade students from Huayang Primary School in Tianhe District, Guangzhou. Class 4 served as the experimental group (situational teaching combined with ideological and political elements) and Class 3 served as the control group (conventional teaching). Using questionnaires, experiments, and mathematical statistics, a 16-week comparative experiment was conducted to assess students' athletic ability and physical education interest. The results showed that: (1) the experimental group performed significantly better than the control group in the 50m run, vital capacity, rope skipping, sit-and-reach tests (p<0.01); (2) the experimental group's interest in physical education was significantly higher than that of the control group (119.71±7.562 vs. 78.70±5.346, p<0.01). Conclusion: The first-grade physical education curriculum contains a wealth of teaching contexts. The situational teaching method is scientific and effective in improving athletic ability and learning interest, and can better stimulate students' interest in sports and promote their all-round development.

Blended Learning Models for Secondary Education: Bridging Traditional Pedagogy and Digital Transformation
type: item
description: The use of digital technologies in education increasingly transforms educational practices while also revealing persistent inequities in access and participation. In elementary schools and middle schools, having unfair amounts of devices and the internet can prevent good learning. This particular study helps to show economically and socially dangerous grade disparities between white and non-white communities. Blended learning models combine traditional and contemporary pedagogical styles to enhance student learning. The research will examine if such tools increase accessibility, engagement, and learning outcomes or give rise to new issues such as digital inequality and difficulty of teaching, etc., in the secondary education sector. In this study, the researcher used data that had already been published by experts in the field. Secondary sources are used for the collection of sufficient data related to the research area. Current articles from the last five years are used to address information. They discovered that it was harder for teachers to give good quality education. In fact, schools with more developed educational programs have greater success in teaching technology. Closing the gap between people with and without technology is a long-term process. Effective interventions should include training for digital components of learning as well as tools to ensure broader access to it. Accomplishing digital equality will require all parties composing an educational system to collaborate with a goal in mind. The research offers many benefits to educators. It gives them more knowledge and helps improve learning. Addressing this challenge is crucial because it benefits education globally. The findings of the research will show the ways through which future teachers can incorporate technology for the growth of education by minimizing the negative impact on students.

A Review of the Functions of the Cultural Heritage of the Mogao Caves at Dunhuang
type: item
description: The Mogao Caves, also known as the “Caves of a Thousand Buddhas,” were first constructed in the early 4th century and gradually expanded to more than 700 grottoes by the Yuan dynasty. Preserved within are extensive wall paintings, sculptures of Buddhas, bodhisattvas, and arhats, along with the invaluable Dunhuang manuscripts, encompassing Buddhist scriptures, Daoist texts, Confucian writings, and secular documents. This unique cultural complex is not only an unparalleled artistic and religious treasure but also a dynamic medium for cultural transmission and moral education. Historically, the Mogao Caves have functioned as a space for Buddhist devotion, while also carrying a didactic function that warns and instructs through visual narratives. In the modern context, their significance extends beyond religious and historical value to encompass heritage preservation, aesthetic appreciation, and even sustainable commercial development through tourism and digital dissemination. As such, the Mogao Caves represent a multidimensional cultural heritage site whose enduring relevance lies in the intersection of spiritual devotion, cultural memory, and contemporary socio-economic engagement

THE DOUBLE REDUCTION POLICY & IMPACT ON STUDENT ACHIEVEMENT AND PARENTAL REACTIONS IN COMPULSORY EDUCATION IN DONGCHENG DISTRICT, BEIJING, CHINA
type: item
description: This paper examines the effects of China’s Double Reduction Policy (DRP) on student academic achievement and parental reactions in compulsory education within Dongcheng District, Beijing. Drawing on a mixed-methods study that combines survey data (n=320) and semi-structured interviews (n=12) with stakeholders, the research investigates variations in outcomes across socioeconomic groups, teacher preparedness, and school-level implementation. Quantitative analyses (ANOVA, multiple regression) assess changes in achievement and perceived academic readiness, while thematic analysis of interviews explores parental anxiety, adaptation strategies, and informal tutoring markets. Findings indicate heterogeneous impacts: some students report improved well-being and engagement after reduced homework and tutoring, whereas others — particularly those previously reliant on intensive tutoring — express concerns about academic preparedness. Evidence also points to emergent informal markets and unequal capacity across schools to provide in-school remediation, which risks exacerbating socioeconomic disparities. The study concludes that the DRP’s equity goals require targeted school support, teacher professional development, and mechanisms to monitor local implementation. The paper contributes district-level empirical evidence to debates on large-scale education reforms and offers policy recommendations to align wellbeing objectives with sustained academic outcomes.

A Study on the Influence of Classroom Language Environments on Vocabulary Semantic Development in Preschool Children
type: item
description: The complexity of classroom language environments significantly influences the systematic construction of preschool children’s lexical-semantic systems. With advances in neurolinguistics and social interaction theories, educational researchers increasingly focus on the long-term effects of early language input quality on children’s cognitive development. Findings indicate that current academic discourse primarily focuses on the following dimensions: first, the mechanisms through which language environments influence lexical development; second, the mechanisms through which language environments influence lexical development; third, the systematic integration of environmental factors; and fourth, the systematic integration of environmental factors. Despite the positive trend of diverse perspectives and expanded content in current research, systemic deficiencies persist. Research perspectives remain relatively homogeneous, with insufficient attention to environmental dynamics; studies on micro-level mechanisms lack depth and yield limited teaching application outcomes; research on cultural adaptability and individual differences exhibits significant shortcomings. Consequently, future research should broaden and deepen its scope, prioritizing the differential characteristics of language interaction across diverse cultural backgrounds and educational settings; strengthen the organic integration of empirical research and theoretical innovation; rigorously validate findings; and strive to construct a scientifically effective language support system for preschool education, achieving systematic optimization in environmental design, teacher–child interaction, curriculum development, and assessment feedback. These explorations will provide a solid theoretical foundation and actionable practical solutions for enhancing the appropriateness and effectiveness of language environments in preschool education.

Effect of Goji Berry (Lycium barbarum) Serum Extract on the Expression of Pro-Inflammatory Cytokines and Anti-Inflammatory Cytokines during Wound Healing in Wistar Rats: A Systematic Literature Review
type: item
description: Wound healing is a complex biological process involving the phases of hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling, in which cytokines and growth factors play an important role. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of administration of Goji Berry (Lycium barbarum) serum extract on the main molecular markers involved in wound healing in Wistar rats. This study was a systematic literature review that assessed the effect of administration of Goji Berry (Lycium barbarum) serum extract on the expression of mRNA pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF and IL-1), anti-inflammatory cytokines (IL-10 and TGF-β), as well as matrix metalloproteinase enzyme MMP-9 and its inhibitor TIMP-1 in the wound healing process in Wistar rats. The findings of the review show that Goji Berry extract is able to suppress pro-inflammatory molecules while increasing anti-inflammatory molecules, thereby accelerating the transition from the inflammatory phase to the proliferative phase as well as supporting tissue regeneration. This extract also plays a role in regulating the degradation balance and repair of the extracellular matrix through increased expression of MMP-9 and TIMP-1, which ensures optimal tissue remodeling. Goji Berry extract has the potential to be an effective natural therapeutic agent in supporting wound healing with minimal side effects. Further research is needed to optimize doses, administration methods, and validate their application in humans for wider clinical use. This study highlights the potential of Goji Berry (Lycium barbarum) serum extract in modulating key molecular markers of wound healing. The results demonstrate the extract's ability to balance pro- and anti-inflammatory mRNA expression and regulate extracellular matrix remodeling, thereby supporting faster and better tissue repair. These findings provide the basis for the development of effective natural wound therapies and guide further research into optimal clinical applications.

PLANNING FOR DETERMINING THE LOCATION OF INTEGRATED WASTE PROCESSING SITE (TPST) USING A GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEM (GIS) AND THE SIMPLE ADDITIVE WEIGHTING (SAW) METHOD IN DENPASAR CITY, BALI
type: item
description: *]:pointer-events-auto scroll-mt-[calc(var(--header-height)+min(200px,max(70px,20svh)))]" dir="auto" tabindex="-1" data-turn-id="request-6941cb20-1f28-8324-a403-0752e7df8f31-18" data-testid="conversation-turn-30" data-scroll-anchor="true" data-turn="assistant"> The waste problem in big cities in Indonesia is still an environmental issue that never ends. By increasing the population, land conversion in several areas, lack of waste processing facilities, and lack of awareness are factors contributing to the waste problem. In 2020, waste services in Denpasar only reached 67.5%, so management of the waste produced is not yet optimal. An integrated waste processing method from upstream to downstream is needed before the waste ends up in the landfill. By functioning optimally, the quality and quantity of waste processing at the TPST in Denpasar, the presence of an overcapacity landfill in Suwung can reduce the burden of waste in the landfill. The existence of a TPST is very necessary in Denpasar, which so far has not been optimal, so a decision is needed to determine the location of the TPST in the Denpasar area. There are 2 methods used in the research method: the first is the use of the SAW method of decision-making system (DSS), and the second is the digitization of mapping using GIS. Analysis of the decision-making system (DSS) using the SAW method uses mathematical analysis, decision matrices, and priority scales. The results of the research show that the priorities for determining TPST locations were obtained by areas that were priority I for TPST development using the SAW method, namely Kesiman and Padang Sambian, with a value of 80–100. The priority I area is also included in the low rainfall area category according to rainfall data for the Denpasar city area. There are 10 priority II regions and 25 priority III regions. Thus, the Kesiman and Padang Sambian areas have the highest priority compared to other areas in Denpasar, Bali, for TPST development.

The Influence of Bioactive Compounds in Arabica Coffee Extract on TNF- Alpha Regulation in Animal Models: A Systematic Literature Review
type: item
description: Arabica coffee (Coffea arabica) contains bioactive compounds such as caffeine and chlorogenic acid, known for their anti-inflammatory potential through the regulation of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), a key pro-inflammatory cytokine involved in metabolic and neurodegenerative diseases. This systematic literature review aims to synthesize evidence from post-2020 studies on the effects of Arabica coffee bioactive compounds on TNF-α regulation in animal models. This review adheres to the PRISMA 2020 guidelines, including experimental studies (2021–2025) from PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar. Inclusion criteria encompassed studies using animal models, focusing on Arabica coffee bioactive compounds, and employing quantitative TNF-α measurements (ELISA, RT-PCR, Western Blot). Data were extracted on study characteristics, animal models, bioactive compounds, measurement methods, outcomes, and molecular mechanisms, with quality assessed using SYRCLE’s Risk of Bias Tool. From 900 articles, 20 met inclusion criteria after rigorous screening. Wistar rats (30%) were the dominant animal model, followed by BALB/c mice and Sprague-Dawley rats (10% each). Compounds like caffeine (6 mg/kg) and chlorogenic acid reduced TNF-α via oxidative stress modulation and NF-κB suppression. Green coffee bean extract (200 mg/kg) showed dose-dependent effects, with higher doses increasing TNF-α. ELISA (55%) was the primary measurement method. Mechanisms included antioxidant activity, inhibition of gut inflammation, and immunomodulation. Arabica coffee bioactive compounds consistently reduce TNF-α, supporting their therapeutic potential for chronic inflammation. Variability in doses and animal models underscores the need for standardized protocols to enhance clinical translation.

Evaluation of Antibacterial Properties of Citrus amblycarpa (Hassk.) Ochse Peel Extract
type: item
description: Limau (Citrus amblycarpa (Hassk.) Ochse) has traditionally been utilized in Balinese medicine for its therapeutic properties. Its peel contains bioactive compounds such as flavonoids, alkaloids, and saponins that have been associated with antioxidant and antibacterial activities. This study aimed to evaluate the antibacterial potential of sequential extracts of C. amblycarpa peel against four pathogenic bacteria. Dried peel powder was sequentially extracted using n-hexane, ethyl acetate, methanol, and water for 72 hours. Each fraction was concentrated with rotary evaporation at 50 °C. The antibacterial activity was assessed by the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) method against Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhimurium, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Staphylococcus aureus. The results showed that none of the extracts demonstrated inhibitory activity against the tested bacteria. This absence of activity may be related to the loss of volatile antibacterial compounds during the drying process of the plant material. In conclusion, sequential extract of C. amblycarpa peel exhibited no detectable antibacterial effect against common pathogenic bacteria. Despite the negative findings, this study provides baseline data for future investigations, contributes to the scientific understanding of local herbal resources, and emphasizes the importance of optimizing extraction methods to preserve bioactive compound for the development of herbal based antimicrobials.

Method/Process: Using a meta-analytic approach that integrates both qualitative and quantitative methods, 43 high-quality empirical studies that met the inclusion criteria were rigorously screened from international and domestic sources. Comprehensive Meta-Analysis (CMA) software was employed to aggregate reported effect sizes (correlation coefficients), followed by heterogeneity testing, publication bias assessment, and moderator analysis. Results/Conclusion: The analysis identified 13 factors that significantly influence student classroom engagement. Effect size estimates indicated that teacher–student relationships, students’ thinking skills, emotional factors, and teacher behaviors showed moderate correlations with engagement, marking them as key determinants. Moderator analysis further revealed that educational stage (basic education vs. higher education) significantly moderated the effects of three factors, personality traits, thinking skills, and learning background, with stronger correlations for personality traits and thinking skills observed at the basic education level. Innovation/Value: By quantifying the influence of multiple factors and elucidating the moderating role of educational stage, this study clarifies heterogeneity in prior findings and provides a robust theoretical foundation and practical guidance for developing targeted strategies to enhance student engagement across different educational phases.

The Transformation of Adult Higher Education in the Internet Era: Distance Education and Blended Learning Practices
type: item
description: In the era of rapid digital transformation, adult higher continuing education has undergone a profound shift, moving from traditional correspondence models to technology-enabled distance and blended learning formats. This study investigates how adult higher education institutions adapt to these changes, with particular attention to the effectiveness, challenges, and international implications of innovative teaching modes. Employing a systematic literature review, the research synthesizes findings from both Chinese and international contexts to identify best practices and persisting gaps. The analysis reveals that blended learning models, combining online modules with face-to-face teaching, enhance flexibility, engagement, and knowledge transfer, but remain limited by uneven digital literacy, insufficient teacher training, and incomplete quality assurance systems. Comparative insights from Europe, the United States, and Southeast Asia highlight the importance of aligning adult education with labor market needs, establishing robust learner support systems, and ensuring equity of access through diversified delivery modes. The study concludes that while blended and online learning are essential for the future of adult higher education, their success depends on policy frameworks, professional development, and context-sensitive innovation. These findings provide practical implications for educators, administrators, and policymakers seeking to optimize adult learning in the digital era.

The Exploration of Humanistic Education Path against Consumerism in Junior High School Chinese Teaching
type: item
description: In today’s consumerist culture, junior high school students are increasingly susceptible to materialism and symbolic consumption, which can lead to distorted values and psychological confusion that run counter to the humanistic spirit emphasized in Chinese language education. Drawing on rich classical texts and diverse pedagogical strategies, junior high Chinese courses serve as an important platform for responding to consumerism and fostering humanistic education. This paper systematically examines approaches to humanistic education in junior high Chinese teaching from the perspectives of theoretical foundations and key points of alignment, including integrated text interpretation, guided writing practice, experiential Chinese learning activities, and a blended model of ideological-political education and humanistic education. Through the analysis of specific instructional case designs, the study proposes practical considerations for implementation, informed by constructivist learning theory and Marx’s theory of commodity fetishism. The study aims to provide actionable teaching plans for junior high Chinese teachers to help students develop healthy consumption perspectives and values, thereby supporting their spiritual growth.

Chitosan as a Bone Graft Biomaterial Enhances Osteogenesis after Tooth Extraction: A Systematic Literature Review
type: item
description: Tooth extraction often results in changes to the dimensions of the alveolar ridge due to resorption, which can affect the stability and comfort of dental prostheses. Socket preservation efforts are crucial for preventing bone resorption and supporting the regeneration of both soft and hard tissues. Chitosan, a biomaterial derived from crustacean exoskeletons, has shown potential as a scaffold and graft material for bone regeneration. With its biocompatible, biodegradable, and antibacterial properties, chitosan supports osteogenesis through its osteoconductive, osteoinductive, and osteogenic capabilities. Additionally, the cationic nature of chitosan allows interaction with bacterial cell membranes, preventing infection and facilitating the transformation of macrophages from pro-inflammatory to anti-inflammatory types. This systematic literature review evaluates the benefits of chitosan in bone regeneration after tooth extraction. The study employed a PRISMA flow diagram to select relevant literature, resulting in 15 studies meeting the inclusion criteria. The findings indicate that chitosan significantly enhances osteoblast activity, accelerates new bone formation, and supports bone healing during the inflammatory, reparative, and remodeling phases without toxicity or risk of disease transmission. Thus, chitosan presents an innovative solution for bone regeneration in clinical dental practice. This study demonstrates that chitosan is an effective natural material for supporting bone healing after tooth extraction. It helps increase bone cell activity, speeds up new bone growth, and prevents infection. These findings support the use of chitosan as a safe and promising option for improving dental bone regeneration.

The Impact of a Physical Exercise Program on Functional Capacity in Patients with Hypertension
type: item
description: Cardiac rehabilitation (CR)-based exercise is a therapeutic intervention that could reduce the mortality and morbidity rates of patients with hypertension by 40–55%. The purpose of this exercise program service is to improve the physiological and psychosocial status of patients with a history of hypertension. From several outpatient cardiac rehabilitation exercise programs in hospitals that refer to aerobic physical exercise, no research has implemented specific treadmill and stationary bike exercise programs. The two exercise programs are considered to be very effective and optimal for evaluating and measuring the impact of functional capacities such as blood pressure and pulse in patients with hypertension. The study measured blood pressure and pulse in 40 subjects using a sphygmomanometer. The data analysis technique used is ANOVA to determine the differences between groups and to compare which group has a significant impact. All treatment groups have the same optimal impact on the capacity of heart function in patients with hypertension. This study has proven that physical exercise programs in the form of treadmill and stationary bike exercises can increase the functional capacity of patients with hypertension. This 12-week research concludes that using treadmills and stationary bikes can optimize functional capacities. This research is the development of a physical exercise model to increase functional capacity safely and effectively. However, the combination of both exercises has the most optimal effect on blood pressure and pulse rate in patients with hypertension.

SURVIVING IN THE DIGITAL ERA: A PHENOMENOLOGICAL STUDY ON THE ADAPTATION STRATEGIES OF BALINESS LOCAL MSMES IN THE E-COMMERCE TRENDS
type: item
description: Culturally, Bali's MSMEs operate within a strong creative economy ecosystem where craft, culinary, and art products often carry local cultural values as commodities. These cultural values become a comparative advantage if MSMEs are able to formalize product storytelling, quality, and packaging standards for the online market; but at the same time, they present a dilemma between maintaining the authenticity of tradition and meeting the demands of larger-scale production. This study aims to understand the adaptation strategies of local Bali Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in facing the digital wave through the utilization of e-commerce. Using a phenomenological qualitative approach, the study involved ten MSME actors who have transitioned to digital platforms. Data were collected through in-depth interviews and analyzed thematically to reveal the experiences, challenges, and meanings of digital adaptation for business actors. The results indicate that e-commerce plays a significant role in the development of Bali MSMEs, not only as a survival strategy but also as an opportunity to expand market reach, improve operational efficiency, and strengthen product branding. Digital transformation encourages MSMEs to develop a more strategic long-term vision and create product innovations according to market demand. The findings also reveal that e-commerce becomes an important means of introducing Balinese cultural values through digital narratives that strengthen local identity in the global market. However, the digital adaptation of Balinese MSMEs still faces challenges, particularly related to limited digital skills, logistics costs, and service quality consistency. This emphasizes that the success of e-commerce utilization is determined not only by technology but also by the readiness of human resources and the support of the business ecosystem. This study concludes that the digital adaptation strategies of Bali SMEs are proactive in creating new growth opportu…

SURVIVAL STRATEGIES IN THE DIGITAL LABOR MARKET: A QUALITATIVE STUDY ON THE RESILIENCE OF GIG ECONOMY WORKERS IN BALI
type: item
description: The rapid growth of the digital labor market has driven the emergence of the gig economy, which offers both opportunities and challenges for workers, especially in developing regions. This study aims to explore the survival strategies and resilience of gig workers in Bali, Indonesia, within the context of a digital platform-based economy. The study employs a qualitative approach with in-depth interviews of six gig workers from various digital platforms. Data Collection Techniques: 1) Semi-structured in-depth interviews (primary method): duration: 30-60 minutes per respondent using audio recordings (with permission), and field notes in Indonesian, 2) Participant observation: observing daily work activities. Record actual practices, environmental context, and social interactions, 3) Data triangulation by combining interviews, observation, and documents to enhance credibility. The findings indicate that gig work is generally carried out to supplement household income, but its unpredictable and fluctuating nature makes it difficult for workers to plan for the future or save money. Work schedule flexibility is seen as a major advantage because it allows workers to balance economic activities with cultural and family obligations, but on the other hand, it demands high self-discipline and exposes workers to the instability of demand. In addition, workers also face serious challenges in the form of fictitious orders, which result in the financial risk being entirely borne by the workers and exacerbate job insecurity. This study concludes that the resilience of gig workers in Bali is shaped not only by individual adaptive capacity but also by socio-cultural support, such as community networks that play a role in reducing economic vulnerability. However, structural challenges remain, particularly concerning the lack of protection from digital platforms and the absence of adequate government regulation. These findings underscore the importance of comprehensive policies and pla…

The Future of Traditional Markets: A Qualitative Analysis of Traders' Strategies in Facing Digital Disruption in Bali
type: item
description: This study aims to analyze the strategies of traditional market traders in facing digital disruption and the increasing dominance of modern markets in Bali. The phenomena of digitalization and the expansion of modern retail have placed significant pressure on the sustainability of traditional markets, which have long been the backbone of family economies and social interaction spaces for the community. The research method used is qualitative with an exploratory approach, through in-depth interviews and participatory observation of 7 traders in several traditional markets in Bali. The results of the study indicate that all traders experience obstacles, such as fluctuations in commodity prices, vulnerability of perishable products, and intense competition with modern stores. However, the traders were still able to survive by implementing adaptation strategies, including maintaining the quality of their goods, offering affordable prices, keeping their stalls clean, and continuing to trade despite unstable income. These findings confirm that traditional markets still play an important role in supporting family economies and maintaining social functions within the community, even under the pressure of modern market developments and digital transformation. The future of traditional markets in Bali heavily depends on the traders' ability to preserve social and cultural values, as well as the quality of services that modern markets do not offer. Additionally, supportive policies and inclusive innovations are needed for traditional markets to continue surviving and thriving in the digital economic ecosystem.

Legal Policy Reconstruction for Sustainable Development: Towards an Interdisciplinary Regulatory Model
type: item
description: This study aims to analyze the urgency of reconstructing legal policy to achieve sustainable development through an interdisciplinary approach integrating law, science, and public policy. The research employs a normative-juridical approach, utilizing primary legal materials such as national legislation and international instruments related to the SDGs, as well as secondary legal materials including interdisciplinary academic literature. The findings reveal that the fragmentation of sectoral legal policies in Indonesia has led to inconsistency among regulations and ineffective implementation of sustainability principles. Therefore, a paradigm shift toward knowledge-based regulation and evidence-based policy is essential to enable law to function as an integrative instrument across disciplines. The proposed interdisciplinary regulatory model encompasses an integrative design linking law–science– policy, a robust mechanism for institutional coordination and accountability, and the application of adaptive and collaborative principles within the national legal framework. Through this model, law is expected not only to uphold legal certainty and justice but also to act as an enabler of sustainable social and economic transformation in Indonesia.

The Urgency of Reorganizing Disaster Management Institutions in Indonesia
type: item
description: A disaster management institutional system is always related to three main issues: power, justice, and legitimacy. In Indonesia, the main problems in disaster management institutions are: first, many institutions are directly involved and even act as leading actors, but do not cooperate; and second, because there are too many institutions involved, coordination problems arise among them. These issues have resulted in disaster management becoming fragmented and ineffective. To address this gap, this article introduces a structured analytical framework that classifies three alternative disaster management institutional arrangements – single-agency system, multi-agency system, and collaborative crisis management. This article advances the discourse by offering a normative and comparative legal analysis that has not been comprehensively applied in the Indonesian context. It analyzes the comparison of institutional systems in the United States and China to develop a new institutional perspective, providing actionable pathways for legal and organizational reform. This article argues that the historical involvement of numerous institutions shapes the dynamics of inter- institutional relations, leading to overlapping authority and heightened sectoral ego, thereby making coordination increasingly challenging. Therefore, this article provides a normative framework that serves as a foundation for enhancing coordination, strengthening institutional legitimacy, and improving the overall effectiveness of disaster management in Indonesia.

THE EFFECT OF FINANCIAL LITERACY AND MATHEMATICAL KNOWLEDGE ON THE INVESTMENT INTEREST OF JAKARTA HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS MODERATED BY RISK PERCEPTION
type: item
description: This study examines the influence of financial literacy and mathematical knowledge on investment interest among high school students in Jakarta, moderated by risk perception. The sampling method used was probability random sampling. The study involved 489 high school students from Jakarta. To obtain primary data, questionnaires were distributed online to both public and private high schools in five areas of Jakarta. This study used a quantitative approach, and the data obtained were processed. by using the Smart PLS program with a 5% significance level. Empirical evidence shows that financial literacy, mathematical knowledge, and risk perception partially influence the investment interest of Jakarta high school students. Furthermore, it was found that risk perception does not moderate the relationship between financial literacy and investment interest, nor does it moderate the relationship between mathematical knowledge and investment interest. The results show that as financial literacy, mathematical knowledge, and risk perception increase, the investment interest of Jakarta high school students also increases. Conversely, risk perception does not moderate the influence of financial literacy and mathematical knowledge on investment interest of Jakarta high school students. This study provides important insights for the government and schools that by strengthening financial literacy and mathematical knowledge, students' interest in investing increases.

Innovation in Early Childhood Education Assessment: Gamification as a Contemporary Literacy-Based Evaluation Tool
type: item
description: Early Childhood Education (PAUD) requires innovative assessment approaches to holistically and interactively evaluate children's development. This article explores gamification as a contemporary literacy-based assessment tool in PAUD through a literature review. Research findings indicate that gamification, incorporating elements such as badges, leaderboards, and story-based challenges, enhances children's intrinsic motivation and literacy skills and provides dynamic feedback for teachers. The implementation of gamification in game-based learning has proven effective in stimulating critical thinking, language mastery, and peer collaboration. However, challenges such as insufficient teacher training and limited access to technology remain barriers. This study recommends integrating gamification into the PAUD curriculum through adaptive approaches, teacher training, and developmentally appropriate content. The findings highlight gamification's transformative potential in creating an engaging and meaningful learning environment. With policy support and stakeholder collaboration, gamification can serve as an innovative solution to improve the quality of assessment and learning in PAUD.
