ABSTRACT. The abstract contains the study's main objectives, methods used, research findings, and conclusions. The abstract is written in English or Arabic, and Bahasa Indonesia uses the font Garamond 11 pt, using single line spacing between lines. The left indent is 2.5 cm, the right indent is 0 cm, and the abstract length is between 150 and 250 words. Keywords need to be included to describe the realm of the problem under study and the main terms that underlie the implementation of the study. Keywords can be single words or compound words. The number of keywords is around 3-5 words. These keywords are needed for computerization. Searching for research titles and abstracts with these keywords is made easy.

 

INTRODUCTION. Content in the introduction, must contain: first, presentation of the primary research or study topics; second, includes the latest literature related to citing the newest research literature (the last ten years) which has relevance to the article being studied; third, it can show gaps that have not been filled by previous studies, inconsistencies or controversies that arise between the existing literature; fourth, contain the problem, the purpose of the research or study, the context of the research or study, and the unit of analysis used in the study; and fifth, displaying what is discussed in the structure of the article.

 

METHOD. The method section describes the steps passed in executing the research or study. Therefore, it is necessary to show in detail to the reader why the method used is reliable and valid in presenting research findings. The research methods section should be able to explain the research methods used, including how the procedures are implemented, an explanation of the tools, materials, media or instruments used, an explanation of the research design, population and sample (research targets), data collection techniques, instrument development, and technique of data analysis. Writing subtitles in the method should be included in the paragraph instead of bullets, or numbering. For qualitative research such as case studies, phenomenological, etc., it is necessary to add the presence of researchers, research subjects, informants who helped along with ways to explore research data, location and duration of research, and a description of checking the validity of research results.

 

RESULT. The main provisions in writing research or study findings are as follows: 1) present the research or study findings briefly, while still providing sufficient detail to support conclusions, 2) may use tables or pictures, but do not repeat the same information, by providing narration at the bottom of the table or picture so that the reader can understand the tables or pictures presented by the author, and 3) each research finding or study must be appropriately interpreted using standard spelling. Data analysis processes such as statistical calculations or hypothesis testing processes need not be presented, only the results of the analysis and the results of hypothesis testing need to be reported. The author can use tables or graphs to describe the results of research or studies found verbally, by providing narration or comments at the bottom of the tables or charts, by referring to previous research results in reputable scientific journals, both internationally and nationally.

 

DISCUSSION. The discussion section aims to: (1) answer the problem formulation and research or study questions; (2) shows how the findings were obtained or found; (3) interpret the findings; (4) linking research findings or studies with established knowledge structures; and (5) bring up new theories or modifications to existing theories, by comparing the results of previous studies that have been published in reputable journals. In answering the formulation of the problem or research questions, the study's results must be concluded explicitly regarding previous research. Interpretation of research findings or studies can be done using empirical logic based on existing theories or previous research results in reputable journals, both international and national. In contrast, findings in the form of reality in the field are integrated or linked to the results of previous studies or with existing theories. For this purpose, the author must refer to international journals (Scopus or Web of Sciences) and national journals (Sinta).

 

CONCLUSION. The conclusion consists of a summary of the article that presents an overview of the research results that have been carried out and is the answer to the formulation of the problem. Conclusions must be aligned with the formulation of the problem and research objectives. If the conclusion is more than one, then it’s written using numbered paragraphs, not by using bullets, and the writer can also add the prospect of development of the results of the research or study, as well as how to further implications will be the prospects of research or further research.

 

ACKNOWLEDGMENT. If needed, the author can add appreciation to this section.

The comparison of references or references is 70% derived from journals and 30% comes from textbooks. Using the Mendeley, Zotero, and EndNote apps as tools in reference is more recommended. References should be carefully checked for completeness, accuracy, and consistency. Authors are encouraged to cite at least 1 (one) article from this journal in the previous issue. The author must cite the publication in the text following the Vancouver or APA quotation style. At the end of the article, the reference uses alphabetical.
