ENHANCING SME FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE THROUGH ACCOUNTING INFORMATION SYSTEM ADOPTION: A BUSINESS-MODIFIED UTAUT2 APPROACH IN INDONESIA
No full textIn many developing countries, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) play an important role in driving economic growth. Given the important role of SMEs in driving economic growth, we wanted to examine the impact of accounting information system (AIS) digitization on the financial performance of SMEs in Indonesia. Several studies acknowledge that accounting information system (AIS) digitization has significantly improved the financial performance of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). To determine the financial performance of SMEs in Indonesia, this study was conducted using a customized UTAUT2 framework and SEM-PLS analysis to investigate the influence of AIS adoption. Based on data analysis from 300 SMEs across various industries, this study revealed a statistically significant relationship between AIS and critical financial performance metrics, including revenue growth, cost efficiency, and profitability. Although the implementation of AIS has inherent limitations, such as a lack of technical expertise and high costs, this analysis offers a viable alternative. Based on the study's findings, it is suggested that incorporating components tailored to SMEs can expand the scope of the UTAUT2 model, thereby providing a comprehensive framework to drive digital transformation in developing countries
EXPLORING AI INTEGRATION WITH 21ST-CENTURY SKILLS IN LANGUAGE EDUCATION
No full textThis research explores Artificial Intelligence (AI) integration with 21st-century skills in language education through a qualitative approach based on library research methods. It reviews academic papers, scholarly works, and reports to understand how AI technologies—like intelligent tutoring systems, automated writing evaluation tools, and AI-powered language learning platforms—support the development of critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, communication, and digital literacy in language learning contexts.

Furthermore, the use of AI aligns with global educational goals by giving learners essential language abilities and transferable skills necessary for success in an increasingly connected world. However, the review also points out several challenges, such as a lack of long-term studies on AI’s impact on language learning outcomes, insufficient teacher training in AI-related skills, and ethical concerns around privacy, bias, and fairness. These issues highlight the necessity for well-rounded strategies that include the teaching, technological, and ethical dimensions of AI in language teaching. The study’s findings stress the importance of teacher preparedness, policy development, and the creation of culturally sensitive AI tools to create inclusive and effective learning environments. In conclusion, this research sees AI as a powerful tool for transforming language education, helping it meet the demands of the 21st century while emphasizing the need for thoughtful, evidence-based, and ethical implementation
