Santri are known to have independent, simple characters, do not give up easily and are willing to take risks. It is the character of the santri that becomes the capital of an entrepreneurial spirit. The main problem that arises today is the mentality of the entrepreneurial spirit of students. There are still many Islamic boarding schools that do not yet have an entrepreneurship program. In practice, many Islamic boarding schools develop spontaneous entrepreneurial activities. Pondok Al kayyis is a student hostel where all the students are students of Trunojoyo University, Madura. This boarding school consists of Pondok Putri and Pondok Pesantren with a total number of students of approximately 80 students. Budikdamber is an alternative to catfish cultivation that has just been recognized by the students, and this turned out to be very attractive to the students because the ingredients are simple and easy to obtain. Apart from that, budikdamber does not require external land to do so and provides great potential that promises to be used as a business or business. The low cost and fast harvest are the main attraction for the students to try it. The students who have backgrounds in various majors also begin to understand that entrepreneurship does not only require technical skills but also has good leadership skills in entrepreneurship to be successful. Self-confidence, high motivation, always innovative/creative, communicative, solutive and focused are the leadership qualities that must be possessed by successful entrepreneurs.

Exploring the predictive factors of gen Z readiness for entrepreneurship

As one of the essential elements of the country's current economic development, Indonesia's government still supports entrepreneurial endeavors. Young entrepreneurs can only be developed with the help of universities. Students' entrepreneurial attitudes are anticipated to be shaped through the practical entrepreneurship program. As a foundation for student preparation to engage in entrepreneurial activity, this study investigates entrepreneurial intention. Students' entrepreneurial intents in Jakarta will be compared to three factors, including attitudes, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control, that are based on the Theory Planned of Behavior. Purposive sampling was used to sample 120 students. Through the use of partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM), variance-based SEM was employed to analyze the data. All variables are reliable and legitimate, according to the test results. The study's key conclusions show that while subjective norms have a minimal impact on entrepreneurial intention, attitude and perceived behavioral control have a positive and considerable impact. Entrepreneurial intent is also recognized to have a favorable and significant impact on readiness to launch a firm. The study's findings could be incorporated into entrepreneurship curricula at colleges to help the government's attempts to accomplish development objectives through entrepreneurial endeavors.

THE URGENCY OF DERADICALIZATION MEASURES FOR TERRORISM INMATES IN CORRECTIONAL FACILITIES

<p><em>Terrorism crimes pose a threat to the state ideology, national security, state sovereignty, human values, and various aspects of societal, national, and state life, and they often have a transnational nature. These terrorism crimes require deradicalization measures for terrorism inmates in Indonesia, taking into account the individual conditions of each perpetrator, their families, and their social environment. The problem addressed in this paper pertains to the urgency of deradicalization measures for terrorism inmates in correctional facilities. This paper adopts an empirical juridical approach, conducting field research that examines legal regulations combined with data and behavior prevalent in society. The research findings indicate that: (1) The implementation of deradicalization measures for terrorism inmates in correctional facilities is not yet effective due to internal factors, which involve the lack of integration in handling terrorism inmates. Additionally, external factors, such as insufficient socialization, lack of training for officers, inadequate support facilities, budget constraints, and limited facilities in correctional facilities, contribute to the inefficiency. (2) The regulation of deradicalization for terrorism inmates in correctional facilities is based on Law Number 22 of 2022 concerning Correctional Institutions. The deradicalization regulation for terrorism inmates is stipulated in Article 54 paragraph (4), which outlines the stages: identification and assessment, rehabilitation, reeducation, and social reintegration. (3) The urgency of deradicalization measures for terrorism inmates in correctional facilities is not specific, as it is still treated similarly to other cases involving inmates. The deradicalization measures are carried out through social reintegration programs, education programs, skills training, and entrepreneurship programs for terrorism inmates, which aims to improve their well-being after their release and facilitate their reintegration into society to support their families. The independence and self-confidence of terrorism inmates in returning to society will prevent them from returning to their terrorist groups.</em></p>

Assessing the Impact of Collaborative Learning Practices on Competency Development in Entrepreneurship Program: A Study of Higher Education Students in Delhi NCR Region of India

Higher education aims to inculcate teamwork and leadership, the two primary management skills that empower students to achieve competency. Despite the fact that students gain domain knowledge through higher education, many organisations report that freshmen have a severe lack of collaborative skills. These skills are essential for today’s graduates to compete in the world of tomorrow. Collaborative learning is a set of strategies that help the students achieve management skills in an effective way, leading to deeper learning. It increases the critical thinking level, communication, leadership, and employability skills, as well as responsibility, and prepares the students for real-life social and economic environments. As collaborative learning practises are so important, this study focuses on assessing the impact they have on competency development, specifically in entrepreneurship programs. A qualitative and quantitative survey has been administered to 536 students pursuing higher education in management in India’s Delhi and the NCR region. A questionnaire has been prepared with 20 questions, comprising 15 closed-ended and 5 open-ended questions. With the results obtained from the survey, it is clear that the collaborative learning practise has a positive relationship with the entrepreneurship programme and competence development among students. The result proved that collaborative learning does benefit the students more in developing competency than individual learning through cultivating essential skills such as communication, teamwork, critical thinking, and responsibility.

Redefining Sustainability and Entrepreneurship Teaching

The demand for sustainable development is rapidly increasing with the need to create cleaner and greener products for consumers and producers alike. In line with this need, sustainability has become integral to entrepreneurship research. Although sustainability-focused entrepreneurship programs are offered at higher education institutions, gaps remain in identifying novel approaches to combining sustainability and entrepreneurship in university programs. To overcome these gaps, this study provides an approach to redefining how sustainability-based entrepreneurship can be taught in a virtual environment using a cross-institution initiative involving instructors and students from multiple countries and disciplinary backgrounds to provide students with opportunities to solve complex sustainability-based problems affecting society. A post-assessment survey (including open-ended questions related to skill development, intercultural learning, virtual learning, and debrief) was administered to better understand student perceptions of learning and engagement. The qualitative data were analyzed using thematic inductive analysis resulting in three key themes (learning outcomes, supportive learning environment, and intercultural challenges). The Discussion and Conclusion sections highlight implications for practitioners, contributions to the literature, and limitations/future research. Pedagogical strategies for educators and program designers are provided.

Entrepreneurship education reveals antecedents of intention: what really matters?

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to determine if the changes that occur in entrepreneurial intention, following entrepreneurship education are related to changes in the factors of the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB).Design/methodology/approachThis research was conducted based on a questionnaire and used a pre-test-post-test group design. A questionnaire was filled out at the start of a university-level entrepreneurship course, and a follow-up was obtained at the conclusion of a semester-long course. Both questionnaires were fully completed by a total of 191 business students from a central Business School based in Athens with a class population of 400.FindingsThe results of this study indicated that the positive change in entrepreneurial intention after the entrepreneurship course, is caused by the positive change in perceived behavioral control.Research limitations/implicationsOne limitation of this study is that it assesses entrepreneurial intention and entrepreneurial behavior which may or may not materialize. Also, the findings of this study should be evaluated across different ethnic groups, before making more conclusive generalizations. Further research on the sample’s characteristics, including gender, age, past career history, and parent’s line of work, would be adding value in similar studies. Furthermore, we indicated the antecedents of the changes in entrepreneurial intention that occurred from entrepreneurship education examining only the changes of the factors of TPB, without taking into consideration additional factors.Practical implicationsThe results of this study can help employees, organizations, students, and managers to develop abilities that will aid them in navigating the uncertain future. Also, our findings can help corporate management, policymakers, governments, professors, and institutions to design entrepreneurship programs that can promote entrepreneurship in more effective ways.Originality/valueMEMORE macro reveals a new approach between the combinations of entrepreneurship education, entrepreneurial intention, and the factors of the TPB. With these combinations we can examine if the impact of entrepreneurship education on entrepreneurial intention is caused by the impact of entrepreneurship education on the factors of the TPB.

Detecting CMT-BSHM OJT Performance Levels and Issues Affecting Performance: The Foundation for Competency Enhancement Program

A mixed method design was used in this study to collect and analyze both quantitative and qualitative data within the same study. using a self-created survey questionnaire The findings:1.Zamboanguenos were the most common tribe among respondents, followed by Visayans and Tausugs, with the majority being females from middle-class families. 2. There were disparities in performance assessments between supervisors and students, particularly in terms of personality development. Supervisors rated the performance as moderate, while students thought it was excellent. 3. There is no significant difference in perceptions of the issues raised affecting work performance between the supervising agencies and the BSHRM OJT practicumers themselves. 4.There is no statistically significant relationship between BSHM OJT performance and the problems and issues raised by them, as perceived by practicumers and supervisors in general. The following suggestion would be beneficial to this study: This study should focus on Region IX SUCs, specifically Hospitality and Tourism Business, including Entrepreneurship programs, to determine if females are more likely to enroll. CMT professors should adapt the research to develop a Competency Enhancement Program that focuses on psycho-social dimensions of CMT-BSHM OJT practicumers' academic performance and workplace behavior. A regular stakeholders' forum on business and tourism programs and a benchmarking on best practices on the OJT deployment system can help bridge the gap between competency skills earned and industry-specific skills demanded.
