SPATIAL ANALYSIS OF FLOOD HAZARDOUS IN AMBON CITY BASED ON GEOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION SYSTEM (GIS)
Ambon City is one of the cities with a relatively high flood disaster intensity. This study aims to analyze the factors that cause flooding and determine the vulnerability of flooding. The method is based on a geographic information system (GIS) by integrating secondary and primary data. Parameters analyzed include elevation, rainfall, slope, soil type, and land use. Study results show that the factors causing flooding in Ambon City include relatively high-intensity rains, land use patterns dominated by mixed gardens, slopes in lowland areas, low elevations, and soil types easily inundated with water. The flood hazard zone is divided into three classes, namely high, medium, and low hazard zones. Areas with high vulnerability are 2,251.3 ha (6.99%) of the total area of the study area. For this reason, the community and the Ambon City government need to pay attention to this area in dealing with flood disasters
IMPROVING STUDENT’S READING COMPREHENSION THROUGH PICTURE IN THINK, PREDICT, READ, AND CONNECT (TPRC) STRATEGY
The aim of this study is to ascertain whether the reading comprehension levels of students who are taught the original TPRC strategy and those who are taught using picture in TPRC strategy differ noticeably. This study used a true-experimental design. It happened during the first semester of the second grade at SMP Islam 1 Kalirejo. A control group and an experimental group were used by the researcher. While the experimental group incorporated picture to the TPRC strategy, the control group employed the original TPRC strategy. According to the findings of the independent group t-test, the experimental and control groups' reading comprehension scores differed statistically significantly, with the significance level for both classes being less than 0.05. The mean score of the experimental group was higher (77.80) than that of the control group (68.42). These findings suggest that incorporating picture in TPRC strategy can effectively improve students’ reading comprehension. In addition, it is suggested that teachers should actively monitor student’s interactions and implement strategies to ensure all students are equally engaged
ANALYSIS OF SPEAKING ANXIETY ON VOCATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS IN ENGLISH PERFORMANCE
Many EFL students feel that speaking in English is the most difficult skill, So this triggers the emergence of speaking anxiety among students. This study aims to analyze the level of anxiety in speaking English as well as the factors that influence speaking anxiety among the 11th grade students of SMKN 1 Stabat. The study used a qualitative approach with random sampling technique in class XI of Beauty and Spa Management which totaled 27 students. Google Form was used to distribute the questionnaire, which is based on the Foreign Language Classroom Anxiety Scale (FLCAS) by Horwitz et al. (1986) and has 31 question items formatted in a five-point Likert scale. Data were analyzed using Microsoft Excel 2007, along with interviews and observations. The majority of students reported experiencing moderate levels of anxiety, with test anxiety being the most common. According to Horwtz et al. (1986), the elements of student speaking anxiety are divided into three categories: test anxiety, communicative fear, and fear of receiving poor judgment. A homogeneous and supportive learning environment, where all students come from the same major and gender, plays an important role in reducing anxiety levels. The negative impact of anxiety on students' speaking performance was not significant as students were able to manage their anxiety well. This finding confirms the importance of creating a conducive learning environment to increase students' confidence and active participation in English language learning

The Role of Self-Efficacy as a Moderator of the Determining Factors of Entrepreneurial Intention
Entrepreneurship plays a crucial role in driving economic growth, innovation, and employment generation, especially in developing countries like Indonesia. This study examines the determinants of entrepreneurial intention (IB) among undergraduate students at four private universities in West Jakarta—Universitas Tarumanagara, Universitas Bina Nusantara, Universitas Podomoro, and Universitas Trisakti—using the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) as the theoretical framework. The research specifically investigates the effects of entrepreneurial education (PK), perceived behavioral control (PBC), and adversity quotient (KA) on entrepreneurial intention, while also testing the moderating role of entrepreneurial self-efficacy (ED). Data were collected through an online questionnaire from 210 respondents who had taken entrepreneurship courses, and analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) via SmartPLS 4.0. The results demonstrate that entrepreneurial education and perceived behavioral control are the strongest predictors of entrepreneurial intention, explaining 71.7–72.4% of its variance. Results of this research, shows that entrepreneurial self-efficacy is significantly moderating effects of strengthening the relationship between adversity quotient and intention while reducing the marginal impact of education among highly confident students. Overall, the findings extend the TPB by incorporating both psychological and sociocultural dimensions, highlighting that entrepreneurial intention formation is shaped not only by knowledge and perceived capability but also by confidence and contextual differences. The study recommends integrating experiential, gender-inclusive, and resilience-based approaches into entrepreneurship education to foster stronger entrepreneurial mindsets among university student

Effectiveness of Non-Cash Food Assistance Policy (BPNT) Implementation in Improving Food Security for Urban Communities in Lampung Province
The non-cash food assistance (BPNT) policy has been implemented in Indonesia to improve the distribution and utilization of social assistance, with the goal of strengthening household food security, increasing access to quality food, and supporting the local economic circulation. Although this policy has great potential, its implementation in urban areas, including in Lampung Province, faces significant challenges, such as limited infrastructure, gaps in digital service accessibility, logistical constraints, and low digital literacy among beneficiaries. Additionally, food price instability and a lack of distribution oversight pose obstacles to the success of this policy. This study aims to evaluate the challenges in implementing BPNT in Lampung Province and analyze its impact on food security. The results show that strengthening digital literacy, developing technological infrastructure, and cross-sector collaboration are key to improving policy effectiveness. Continuous evaluation and a holistic approach integrating social, economic, and technological factors are necessary to achieve long-term success in supporting food security for the poor in urban areas
Pre- And Post-Pandemic Determinants of Financial Distress in Property and Real Estate: The Moderating Role of Profitability
The research aims to examine the influence of sales growth, leverage, and intellectual capital on financial distress with profitability as a moderating factor before and after the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. The study focuses on 48 property and real estate sub-sector companies listed on the Indonesian Stock Exchange from 2018 to 2022. Using purposive sampling, 14 eligible companies were chosen for analysis. The data underwent analysis utilizing multiple linear regression, moderated regression analysis, and paired sample t-test methods. Findings indicate that sales growth does not impact financial distress; leverage has a significantly negative effect, while intellectual capital has a notably positive effect. Profitability moderates the influence of sales growth but not leverage or intellectual capital on financial distress. Additionally, it was noted that following the COVID-19 pandemic period, there were decreases in sales growth, intellectual capital, and profitability along with an increase in leverage by 8.75%. The study investigates how sales growth, leverage, and intellectual capital affect financial distress in the property and real estate sector. It goes beyond traditional financial metrics to explore the role of intellectual capital components like human capital, structural capital, and relational capital in mitigating financial distress. The study also examines the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the sectors, providing insights into how it has adapted to its challenges
