This paper discusses the Evaluation of the Existing Structure of the Graha Building of PT Petrokimia Gresik. The building was constructed on December 6, 2021, and handed over on June 28, 2023. However, in August 2025, cracks were discovered in the rear section of the building. These cracks were found in areas such as the staircase access from the 1st to the 2nd floor, the head office's room, and on beams across several floors. Consequently, a special identification of this damage is required, encompassing visual inspection, concrete surface hardness testing, concrete core sampling, and analysis using SAP2000. Therefore, a technical study is necessary to analyze the structural strength of the existing building. Based on the structural system analysis, the selected strengthening methods are: Adding new post columns using IWF 250 x 250 sections, Injecting the concrete cracks, Strengthening the cantilever beams using Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP). Furthermore, risk mitigation for these work methods is required to ensure the project implementation can be completed safely.

Corruption is still one of the problems that is difficult to solve in Indonesia. The purpose of this study was to determine the impact of Islamic corporate governance variables, internal control systems, whistleblowing, and community empowerment on efforts to prevent Fraud in the distribution of village fundsin independent villages, Bone Regency. The sample was selected based on accidental sampling techniques by distributing questionnaires to 202 samples consisting of village officials and communities in 82 independent villages in Bone Regency, South Sulawesi, Indonesia. The use of data analysis methods in this study involved descriptive tests using the Validity and Reliability test. The measurement of the questionnaire was based on a Likert scale and data analysis techniques through Structural Equation Models using SMART-PLS tools. The results of the study indicate that Islamic corporate governance, internal control systems, and community empowerment have a positive and significant effect on efforts to prevent fraud, and whistleblowing influences preventing fraud in independent villages. These results contribute to the importance of implementing Islamic governance where most of the village population is Muslim and improving the internal control system and community involvement in the use of village funds so that fraud does not occur.

Pesantren sebagai lembaga pendidikan Islam tradisional mengharuskan mahasiswa untuk menjalani rutinitas keagamaan yang disiplin, mandiri, dan intens. Kondisi ini berpotensi menimbulkan tekanan psikologis yang membutuhkan ketahanan. Spiritualitas diyakini sebagai salah satu faktor internal penting yang dapat memperkuat ketahanan siswa. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji pengaruh spiritualitas terhadap ketahanan siswa di pondok pesantren di wilayah Sulawesi Selatan. Pendekatan kuantitatif digunakan dengan desain survei korelasional. Sampel penelitian terdiri dari 416 siswa SMA yang diseleksi melalui teknik multistage cluster random sampling dari 12 pondok pesantren. Instrumen yang digunakan adalah Skala Spiritualitas (diadaptasi dari Inventarisasi Orientasi Spiritual/Elkins, dengan reliabilitas ? = 0,93) dan Skala Ketahanan (berdasarkan teori Reivich & Shatté, dengan reliabilitas ? = 0,79). Analisis data dilakukan dengan menggunakan Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) dengan software Mplus. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa spiritualitas memiliki efek positif yang signifikan terhadap ketahanan siswa (? = 0,341, z = 6,718, p < 0,001). Temuan ini menegaskan bahwa semakin tinggi tingkat spiritualitas, semakin kuat ketahanan psikologis mahasiswa dalam menghadapi tekanan kehidupan pesantren. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa program pengembangan rohani di pesantren memiliki kontribusi penting dalam penguatan ketahanan siswa. Penelitian lebih lanjut direkomendasikan untuk memperluas wilayah penelitian dan menambah faktor eksternal seperti dukungan keluarga dan iklim pesantren. Kata kunci: spiritualitas, ketahanan, mahasiswa, pesantren, Sulawesi Selatan

The rapid growth of financial technology (fintech) has transformed consumer behavior, particularly through the emergence of Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) services such as PayLater. While these platforms offer flexibility and convenience in purchasing, they have also been linked to rising impulsive and consumptive behaviors among young users. This study aims to examine the role of Debt Management Literacy (DML) in controlling financial impulsivity among young PayLater users in Indonesia. Using a quantitative explanatory approach, data were collected through an online survey of 312 respondents aged 18–30 who had used PayLater services within the last six months. The data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The results show that the use of PayLater positively affects financial impulsivity while DML and self-control negatively affect it. Furthermore, DML has a moderating effect, weakening the positive relationship between PayLater usage and impulsivity. These findings confirm that good debt management literacy acts as a buffer against impulsive financial behavior, reducing the risk of overspending and debt accumulation. The study highlights the importance of strengthening financial education and promoting responsible digital credit usage among young adults to achieve sustainable financial well-being.

Pembelajaran berdiferensiasi menjadi salah satu strategi penting dalam Kurikulum Merdeka karena memberikan kesempatan bagi siswa untuk belajar sesuai kemampuan, minat, dan kebutuhan masing-masing. Praktik di lapangan menunjukkan bahwa guru memiliki pengalaman yang beragam dalam menerapkan pendekatan ini, sehingga diperlukan pemahaman yang lebih mendalam mengenai bagaimana guru memaknai dan menjalankannya di kelas. Penelitian ini bertujuan mendeskripsikan perspektif guru senior dan guru baru terhadap implementasi pembelajaran berdiferensiasi di sekolah dasar. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan desain studi kasus. Data diperoleh melalui wawancara mendalam, observasi konfirmasi, dan analisis dokumen. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa guru senior menerapkan pembelajaran berdiferensiasi melalui perencanaan yang lebih sistematis berdasarkan hasil asesmen awal, sedangkan guru baru memusatkan perhatian pada kreativitas media dan fleksibilitas kegiatan belajar. Kedua guru menghadapi kendala pada aspek waktu, manajemen pembelajaran, serta penyesuaian strategi dengan keberagaman siswa. Temuan ini memberikan gambaran empiris mengenai pelaksanaan pembelajaran berdiferensiasi pada konteks sekolah dasar serta menegaskan pentingnya dukungan kelembagaan dan penguatan kompetensi guru agar pelaksanaan diferensiasi dapat berjalan lebih efektif.
