The Effect of Mathematics Learning with an Open-ended Approach Assisted by the Geogebra Application on the Mathematical Creative Thinking Ability of Junior High School Students
Full text linkThe purpose of this study is to describe the influence of the open-ended approach assisted by geogebra application in improving students' creative thinking skills. The type of research used is experimental research with a research design, namely one group pretest-posttest design. The results showed that there was a significant influence of the application of the open-ended approach assisted by the geogebra application on students' mathematical creative thinking skills with a pretest percentage of 16.7% and a posttest percentage of 64.3% which showed an increase based on the treatment given. This is suspected because in the implementation of an open-ended approach, the geogebra application is able to build new knowledge from relevant previous learning experiences through the process of investigating, explaining and collaborating to find problem solving

The Concept of Islamic Cosmology in the Srabad Banteng-Windu Glass Painting of Cirebon
Full text linkThe traditional art of Cirebon reflects a convergence (acculturation) of various cultural elements from different historical traditions. One such example is the Srabad glass painting, which exhibits a cosmological pattern adapted from the pre-Islamic cosmology known as Triloka (Three Worlds). The visual form of the Srabad glass painting combines calligraphic inscriptions with anthropomorphic figures rooted in pre-Islamic mystical traditions. The Srabad Banteng-Windu glass painting, analyzed as a sample in this study, reveals the structure of Triloka cosmology through the use of motifs: the Wadasan motif as an interpretation of the underworld, the hybrid creature Banteng-Windu as an interpretation of the middle world, and the Megamendung motif as an interpretation of the upper world. This article presents a comparative study between Ibn al-‘Arabi’s concept of Islamic cosmology and the concept of the Three Worlds (Triloka) as reflected in the visual structure of the Srabad Banteng-Windu glass painting. The study employs a visual analysis method using a descriptive-interpretative approach, grounded in Islamic cosmology theory. The results indicate that the acculturation of cosmological concepts and visual elements from pre-Islamic traditions into Cirebon’s Islamic traditional arts represents an inward-to-outward adaptation process. That is, after internalizing the teachings of the Sufi order Tarekat Sattariyah, traditional artists expressed their understanding through artworks by borrowing visual elements from earlier, popular artistic traditions in Cirebon
Electronic Theft from View of the Jurisprudence of Ahl al-Bayt and the Iran-Afghanistan Criminal Law
Full text linkElectronic theft, as an emerging, complex, and transnational crime, is perpetrated using electronic tools and through connection to the powerful, international internet network within cyberspace. Although cyberspace has facilitated numerous activities and created opportunities for communication and the exchange of information globally, it also presents dangers and threats. One of these threats is theft, where perpetrators, by unauthorized access to others' websites or systems, seize property, data, and unauthorized information, disrupting the social and psychological order of society and depriving the rightful owner of their assets and data. This research adopts a descriptive-analytical method to explore the jurisprudential and legal dimensions of electronic theft within the frameworks of Iranian and Afghan law, aiming to propose appropriate legal strategies for penalizing offenders and preventing the proliferation of this crime. In the criminal laws of Iran and Afghanistan, electronic theft is categorized as a (ta'zir) crimes (discretionary penalties), with punishments that are often lenient and insufficiently deterrent. However, from a jurisprudential perspective, three viewpoints can be proposed on this matter: 1- The first view, based on the lack of direct evidence and the principle of innocence, does not classify it as a crime. 2-The second view considers electronic theft a discretionary crime due to its distinct context from physical theft and the absence of certain required conditions. 3- The third view argues that, if all conditions are met, electronic theft can fall under the category of (hadd) crimes (fixed Islamic penalties). Considering the existing realities and evaluating the similarities and differences between electronic and conventional theft, the third view is supported by sound scientific and logical reasoning and is, therefore, defensible

Resolution on Handling Gross Human Rights in Indonesia
Full text linkHuman rights are the rights possessed by everyone regardless of race, colour, gender, ethnicity, religion, language, gender, religion and politics. Human rights are legally guaranteed by human rights law which protects the individual or groups from acts that violate the freedom and the dignity of humanity. One of the human rights law instruments which has been used as a reference in implementing the human rights norms is the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in 1948 which has been formulated by the United Nations and adhered to as an international norm by countries around the world. To uphold human rights, the Indonesian government has passed the Undang-Undang No. 26 Tahun 2000 tentang Pengadilan HAM. One of the problems that still hamper for years is the legal settlements of human rights cases in Indonesia. Along with the development of democracy in Indonesia, one of the urgent issues in the Government is the legal settlement and the law enforcement efforts to solve various cases of gross violation of human rights which have been neglected for years due to the government's insufficiency in resolving the cases. The efforts in human rights protection and human rights law enforcement became a State's obligation to all of the Indonesian people to ensure the implementation of their fundamental rights
