Kewarganegaraan dan Identitas

Citizenship and identity are two concepts that are interrelated but differ in their definition, role and influence on individuals and society. Citizenship gives a person legal status as an official member of a country, which is accompanied by legally enforceable rights and obligations. Meanwhile, identity is a more personal aspect, including factors such as culture, ethnicity, religion and language that shape an individual's identity. Citizenship and identity are two concepts that are closely related to each other in the context of modern state life. Both form an important foundation in understanding the relationship between the individual and the state and a person's position in society. The concept of citizenship not only includes legal-formal aspects, but also involves complex social, cultural and political dimensions. In the era of globalization, understanding of citizenship and identity is undergoing significant transformation. Increasing global mobility, cross-border migration, and developments in information technology have created more fluid and multilayered forms of identity. This challenges the traditional concept of citizenship which was previously limited to territorial ties and a single nationality. A more inclusive and adaptive approach is needed in understanding and managing the dynamics of citizenship and identity to create a more democratic and just society.

E‐Learning Design Based on E‐Learning Readiness

ABSTRACTThis study aims to determine the e‐learning readiness of Turkish family physicians and to obtain the views of program instructors to design the e‐learning system. An online questionnaire was applied, and 1172 family physicians answered, and a semi‐structured interview was done with the program educators. Infrastructure and equipment readiness was 77.64%, and there was a need for quantitative and qualitative improvements. Online learning readiness was 75.13%, and efforts were needed to develop education and online culture. Information technology readiness was 74.47%, and there was a need to develop information technology knowledge. Attitude readiness was 64.22%, and it was insufficient; it was understood that behaviour and desire need to be developed more to improve. Considering demographic characteristics, age was the strongest and most significant predictor of e‐learning readiness. In the interviews with the program trainers, e‐learning training, development of human resources capacity, increasing enthusiasm for technology, use of asynchronous course format, and development of online culture were indicated for improving an e‐learning system for trainers. It was concluded that information technology readiness moderately affected online learning and attitude readiness but slightly affected equipment and infrastructure readiness. As a result, it showed that 72.80% of Turkish family physicians were ready for e‐learning and needed several improvements for sufficient e‐learning readiness.

Application of the Blended Learning Approach in Developing Student Character in the Digital Era of the 21st Century

In the digital era of the 21st century, the development of information and communication technology has had a significant impact on the world of education, opening up more flexible learning spaces through online platforms. Learning that is no longer limited to the classroom, utilizes blended learning—a combination of face-to-face and online learning—to accommodate the needs of developing 21st century skills such as critical thinking, creativity, and collaboration. This study aims to explore the application of the blended learning approach in student character development, focusing on values such as responsibility, discipline, and cooperation. The method used is a literature study, reviewing various previous studies related to blended learning and character education. The results of the study show that blended learning can strengthen students' character education, by providing opportunities for them to be more independent in managing learning and engaging in collaborative activities. However, the main challenges faced are the inequality of access to technology and the limitations of digital literacy which can affect the effectiveness of this method. Therefore, an education policy that supports equal access and increased digital literacy is needed to optimize the implementation of blended learning.

Machine Learning-Based Anomaly Prediction for Proactive Monitoring in Data Centers: A Case Study on INFN-CNAF

Anomaly prediction in time series is crucial for ensuring the stability and security of data centers, especially in scientific contexts such as INFN-CNAF, the National Center for Research and Development in Information and Communication Technology of the National Institute for Nuclear Physics. At INFN-CNAF, large volumes of heterogeneous data critical to international experiments are managed using dedicated monitoring systems. To ensure continuous availability, artificial intelligence solutions are being explored to detect anomalies and predict potential failures proactively. This work presents a machine learning-based approach for automatic anomaly prediction in the operational metrics of INFN-CNAF’s WebDav service. We evaluate several methods, including Long Short-Term Memory, Random Forest, and various neural networks, assessing their Accuracy and sensitivity in distinguishing normal from anomalous behaviors. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of these methods, not only in predicting anomalies but also in pinpointing critical areas within monitored metrics. This contributes to more proactive IT resource monitoring and enhances data center management efficiency.

A Network Attack Surface Evaluation Method Based on Optimal Attack Strategy

In the era of the rapid development of information technology, it is particularly important to ensure the security of information systems. The network attack surface, as an important index for measuring information system security, has become the focus of practitioners. At present, the accuracy and practicability of network attack surface evaluations are insufficient. In order to solve this problem, this paper proposes a network attack surface evaluation method based on an optimal attack strategy. This method first identifies the main attack targets of network resources and then uses advanced optimization techniques to determine the best attack strategy. Finally, the network resources closely related to system network security are selected, and the network attack surface is calculated according to the filtering results. A series of simulation experiments show that the method proposed in this paper is more closely related to penetration testing results, more sensitive to changes in network attack surfaces, and more consistent with the real situation compared to other methods. The results demonstrate the method’s balance of practicality and effectiveness.

Eksplorasi Pengalaman Konsumen terhadap Peran Online Customer Review dan Citra Merek terhadap Keputusan Pembelian Kosmetik pada Aplikasi Sociolla

Regional green economies and Bitcoin's electricity consumption: Paving the way for global sustainability.

In the context of global sustainability goals, it is imperative to examine the interplay between emerging financial technologies and environmental objectives, which in turn offers insights into the implications of such technologies on sustainable investments and environmental policy decisions. Accordingly, this study investigates the influence of Bitcoin's energy consumption (BEC), as a representative of the cryptocurrency market, on the regional green economy indices of the United States, Europe, and Asia. Utilizing both unfiltered and filtered data, we conduct empirical analyses from both static and dynamic perspectives to account for the causal relationships that emerged during critical market developments, employing novel algorithms including forward recursive, rolling windows, and recursive rolling. The results reveal that energy-related developments play a dominant role in shaping the causal link between BEC and the green economy performance. More specifically, events such as the COVID-19 pandemic, the Russia-Ukraine war, and China's ban on cryptocurrency mining appear to significantly drive casual effects. After filtering out the impacts of global equity markets and information technology developments, we observe even more pronounced impacts on these causal relationships. Our findings highlight the need for coordinated global actions to address the energy consumption of the cryptocurrency market, facilitating the transition to global sustainability.
