The Dynamics of the Executive and Legislative Relations in the Indonesian Constitutional System
No full textThis study explores the dynamic relationship between the executive and legislative branches within Indonesia’s constitutional system. Although formally based on the principle of separation of powers, the Indonesian political landscape is characterized by interdependence, negotiation, and compromise between the President and the House of Representatives (DPR). Through a qualitative approach using literature review and document analysis, the research highlights how coalition politics, oversight mechanisms, and political conflicts shape the nature of executive-legislative relations. Findings suggest that while theoretical models advocate institutional independence, practical governance in Indonesia relies heavily on collaboration and mutual adjustment. The study also discusses the implications of this interdependence for democratic accountability, policy-making efficiency, and institutional resilience. Ultimately, it argues that strengthening democratic institutions and encouraging political dialogue are essential for maintaining effective governance in a diverse and decentralized society like Indonesia
Analysis of Tofu Quality Control Using the Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) Method at Tahu Gunung SME
No full textBusiness competition that is increasingly dynamic, complex, and uncertain emphasizes company managers to think creatively and innovatively. Product quality plays an important role in maintaining customer trust and loyalty, so companies must focus on developing and controlling product quality to increase competitiveness and achieve competitive advantage. This study aims to analyze the factors that cause product failure and examine strategies in improving quality at SMEs Tahu Gunung. The research method uses the Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) method by identifying and reducing potential failures to improve product quality through RPN values. The results of the analysis show the calculation of the highest RPN value of 210 is in the soybean soaking process with the risk of failure due to soaking carried out less or more than the specified time and the water in the soaking tub is not replaced with new water, then obtained the second highest RPN value of 192 in the tofu delivery process. From the results of the RPN calculation, improvements are focused on the soaking and tofu delivery stages, by emphasizing to employees to drain the water reservoir regularly and install a cover for the water tank. In the tofu delivery process, improvements that can be made are checking the tofu before the tofu is sent, using a cover box for the tofu container, and routinely cleaning the mold and box after use
Assessing Adolescents' Preferences for Contemporary Drink Attributes
No full textThe rising popularity of contemporary beverages among adolescents, despite their high sugar content and low nutritional value, has raised significant public health concerns. This study investigates the key factors influencing the consumption of contemporary beverages—such as boba milk tea, cheese tea, milk coffee, and Thai tea—among secondary school students in Bandung, Indonesia. Employing a quantitative, cross-sectional descriptive method with a sample of 110 respondents aged 15–19, data were collected via structured questionnaires and analyzed using descriptive statistics. Findings reveal that price is the most influential factor driving consumption interest (75%), followed by packaging (71%), quality (68%), and brand (68%). Adolescents prioritize affordability and functional packaging features such as portability and spill resistance, while sensory preferences (e.g., taste, temperature, and texture) and customizable options (e.g., sugar and ice levels) enhance perceived quality. Although brand recognition contributes to purchasing decisions, it is secondary to practical and economic considerations. The study underscores the need for targeted health communication strategies and product reformulation to align adolescents' beverage preferences with healthier consumption behaviors. These insights are valuable for stakeholders in the beverage industry and public health sectors aiming to balance market demands with adolescent nutrition education
Teacher’s Strategies in Instilling Pluralism Values Through Sociology Learning at School at The High School Level
No full textThis study aims to analyze the strategies used by Sociology teachers in instilling the values of pluralism to students at SMA Negeri 1 Cibinong. The method used in this research is a qualitative approach with interview techniques, observation, and documentation studies. The results showed that Sociology teachers at SMA Negeri 1 Cibinong implemented various strategies, such as integrating pluralism material in lesson plans and curriculum, using participatory learning methods, providing exemplary behavior, and involving students in extracurricular and cross- curricular activities that lead to strengthening tolerance attitudes. In addition, learning strategies that are contextual and based on students' social experiences also improve students' understanding and attitudes towards pluralism. This research reveals that the role of teachers is crucial in creating a dialogical space that supports learning the values of pluralism, and contributes to the formation of a more inclusive national character. Therefore, this study recommends that similar strategies be implemented in other schools to strengthen pluralism character education in Indonesia

Enhancing Health Education Using Edutainment: A Quantitative Study in Malang Regency, Indonesia
No full textIntroduction: Adolescent health education is essential for promoting long-term well-being, yet many students lack access to effective and engaging learning approaches. This study evaluates the impact of structured teacher training combined with edutainment-based interventions on improving adolescent health knowledge and behavioral intentions using the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) in Malang Regency, Indonesia.
Methods: A quantitative pre-experimental design was used with a pre-test–intervention–post-test structure. The study involved 22 teachers from five schools and 56 junior high school students from SMPN 1 Kepanjen, Malang. The intervention included comprehensive teacher training and interactive edutainment sessions for students, covering topics such as adolescent characteristics, physical activity, assertive communication, and time management. Knowledge changes were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test.
Results: The intervention significantly increased knowledge in both groups. Students' average scores improved from 73.2 (pre-test) to 84.4 (post-test) (p < 0.001), while teachers’ scores increased from 69 to 83.4 (p < 0.001). However, no significant changes were observed in students' subjective norms, behavioral control, or behavioral intentions.
Conclusion: Combining structured teacher training with edutainment is an effective strategy for enhancing adolescent health knowledge. This approach provides a scalable model for improving health literacy, though further efforts are needed to influence behavioral intentions and self-efficacy
