Character building is very essential for cadets. As future leaders and officers on commercial ships, they are expected to have strong personalities, be disciplined, be responsible, have high integrity, and be able to work together in a team. Based on this issue, this research aims to analyze the effect of nurturing programs, boarding schools, and social media on the character-building of Politeknik Ilmu Pelayaran (PIP) Semarang cadets. This research used a quantitative method with respondents PIP Semarang cadets from the Nautical Studies, Marine Engineering, and Port and Shipping Management Study Program with a sample of 200 cadets. Sampling was conducted using a questionnaire via Google Form with a Likert scale of 1 to 4. Data obtained from the questionnaire were analyzed using the SPSS 21st version program. The results of this research show that the nurturing program has a very significant influence on the character-building of cadets. Thus, if the nurturing program can be implemented well and correctly according to established norms and regulations, the character of the cadets will be built well and meet the expectations of PIP Semarang. In addition, the boarding school system has a significant influence on the character-building of cadets. A well-built Boarding School system will assist in shaping the characters of PIP Semarang cadets. Lastly, the use of social media does not significantly influence cadets' character-building since there is a regulation related to the limitation of the use of communication devices and the internet.

Student academic achievement is an indicator of success in studying in college. Student habits in carrying out tasks reflected in personal character will impact student learning achievement. However, the positive character does not always influence learning achievement. Other factors that can weaken the role of positive character in academic achievement include family function. This research examines the moderating role of family function in determining the strength of the influence of positive character on student academic achievement. The 201 students majoring in natural sciences selected using stratified random sampling were involved in this explanatory quantitative research. Researchers employed the family function, the noble character scales, and the student cumulative achievement index. Data analysis used the Jamovi statistical software moderation test version 2.0.0. The results show that family function determines the magnitude of the influence of positive character on academic achievement. For students with high family function, character determines significantly academic achievement. On the contrary, for students with low family function. The study is beneficial for educational counsellors in overcoming the problem of low academic achievement by focusing on developing character and improving family function.

This study investigated the impacts of online product review credibility and quality on consumer purchase intentions for electronics, skincare, and home and kitchen products. Using Covariance-Based and Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (CB-SEM and PLS-SEM), it examines the causal links between review credibility, review quality, and consumer purchase intention. Conducted among 555 randomly selected online consumers from Metro Manila, Philippines, the study employed questionnaires with rating scales to gather data. Confirmatory factor analysis was utilized to assess model fit, reliability, and validity, while structural model and path analysis were applied to investigate the links between variables. The findings reveal that the structural model exhibits a moderate fit with the empirical data, demonstrating acceptable reliability and validity levels. Online review credibility was found to have a positive and direct impact on consumer purchase intention. Review quality was identified as a partial mediator in the relationship between review credibility and purchase intention, suggesting that it indirectly influences this dynamic. These implications suggest that e-commerce companies should emphasize the credibility of online product reviews by introducing guidelines to reduce the prevalence of misleading reviews. The accuracy and completeness of reviews, as determinants of review quality, should be prioritized to influence consumer decisions effectively. The study recommends that marketing strategies include incentives for customers to write honest and thorough reviews, thereby enhancing the overall quality of online product reviews. For future research, a qualitative or mixed-method approach is suggested to provide deeper insights, along with longitudinal studies to examine these effects over time.

The relationship between the fundamentals of a firm and cash holdings is an interest topic in financial accounting and financial market literature. Adequate cash holdings can lead to higher profits and financial flexibility, allowing companies to take advantage of opportunities. Therefore, the real estate and property sector requires optimal liquidity holdings to avoid losing investment opportunities and achieve organizational goals. This study examines the effect of controlling share ownership and profitability on cash holdings in the corporate sector. Our samples are the real estate and property sub-sector from 2018 to 2021. The study uses quantitative methods with an archival technique from a capital market database. We performed multiple linear regression to test our hypotheses. The findings show that controlling share ownership has a significant influence on cash holdings. However, the profitability impact on cash holding is not supported. Our study has several limitations, i.e., (1) The study focused only on sub-sector real estate and property, and (2) Our sample period was conducted during 2018-2021. Originality/value examines the effect of controlling share ownership and profitability on cash holdings in the corporate sector, with a focus on the real estate and property sub-sector from 2018 to 2021.

Concerns about students' math skills have long existed on a global scale, the Philippines performed "significantly low" compared to all other participating countries in different achievement assessments. In addition, many students are showing signs of growing disengagement, particularly in mathematics. This is a significant matter since students' success and performance in mathematics may be at risk because of their lack of engagement. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of the ClassPoint, an Interactive Classroom Tool, in enhancing students' engagement and performance in mathematics in face-to-face classes. The researcher utilized a quantitative quasi-experimental design, with 60 students as participants, covering the second quarter of Most Essential Learning Skills of Mathematics 10. Independent and Paired Samples t-test was employed to determine significant differences between formative test, posttest, and student engagement mean responses. The results showed that the students in the Experimental group who used the Interactive Classroom Tool performed better than the Comparison group who did not. The Experimental group showed a significant improvement in their performance, reaching a mastery level of 78% MPS, and a highly significant difference between the Comparison group in the independent t-test result. In addition, a paired t-test revealed that the interactive classroom tool considerably increased student engagement, as indicated by the significant difference in engagement scores between before and after the Interactive Classroom Tool was implemented. The study suggests that instructors may use Interactive Classroom Tool or ClassPoint as instructional materials to increase student participation and performance.

The objective of this paper is to anticipate Bangladesh's economic future and predict sustainability by looking at the GDP and per capita income (PCI) figures. Since the nation's independence, statistics spanning 51 years have been taken into account to track its development, and data spanning the last 11 years have been used to anticipate the years to come. In this study, annual statistics from 1971 to 2022 were studied to forecast the upcoming years. The result manifests a slow but sustainable development in the country's growth with some fluctuations. Analyzing the GDP and PCI insights into the continuous growth and development of Bangladesh. Sustainable development is not only economic development but also balancing the economic, social, and environmental factors to ensure that the development will sustain in the long run and benefits everyone. The results illustrate a surprising picture of the future. The information comes from the World Bank, OCED, and Asian Development Bank's National Account Data. The Least Square Method and the Trend Projection Method, a variant of the linear regression technique, are used in the current study to evaluate data and predict future trends. According to the IMF, the globe will experience a severe recession-like situation in 2023. In order to anticipate Bangladesh's economic status, the current study uses GDP and PCI. GDP has expanded since 1971 on average at a rate of 4.4%, whereas PCI has grown on average at a 1.8%.

This study aimed to determine the relationship between the level of readiness and mathematics performance in face-to-face learning among Grade 7 learners at Balibago Integrated High School. This study employed a descriptive-correlational design to determine the correlation between the two variables under consideration. A stratified proportionate random sampling technique was used to determine the sample from the population of learners, and the number of samples was established using the Cochran formula. The study utilized a researcher-made questionnaire to measure the learners’ readiness level and mathematics performance and was verified by a pool of experts in the field. The questionnaire on readiness focused on measuring students’ cognitive, social, physical, and emotional aspects. The gathered data were evaluated using frequency count and percentage, mean, standard deviation, Pearson r, and hierarchical multiple regression. Based on the findings, it showed that learners’ levels of cognitive, social, and physical readiness were high but only moderate emotionally. Nonetheless, students' mathematics performance was poor because the computed mean fell within a low range. Thus, findings revealed that there was a strong and positive correlation between students' readiness and mathematics performance, with a p-value of .007, which rejected the hypothesis. However, the findings revealed that there was no substantial moderating influence on the profile of learners' mathematics performance in relation to their readiness with a p-value greater than .01. In light of this, a learner's level of preparedness in terms of cognitive, social, emotional, and physical factors may have an impact on how well they perform mathematically.

This study uses the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method of Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) to improve market growth in South Sulawesi, concentrating on the instance of PT MCM especially on Makassar Distribution Centre. The objective is to identify potential market development strategies and assess their viability and efficacy in attaining PT MCM's growth objectives. Additionally, the study evaluates the potential hazards and difficulties associated with implementing each alternative strategy. The research methodology entails collecting pertinent data and conducting interviews with key stakeholders in order to identify the critical factors influencing South Sulawesi market development. Financial, market development, human resources, and operations are the four primary dimensions that categorize these factors. The AHP method is then used to determine the relative weights and priorities of each criterion and alternative strategy through a thorough evaluation. On the basis of the findings, three alternative strategies are identified: Full Third-Party Distributor, Stand Still, and Invest in Makassar Branch Development. PT MCM's optimal strategy is determined to be the development of the Makassar Branch through investment, as determined by the evaluation procedure. This business solution highlights the significance of investing in HR development and control, expanding the number of potential customers, and enhancing brand equity as key priorities for the Makassar Branch's success. Preventive measures and contingency plans are proposed to address prospective threats and challenges. Among these are optimizing operational processes, controlling accounts receivable, implementing recruitment strategies, supplying training and resources, and conducting internal audits.

The research methodology entails collecting pertinent data and conducting interviews with key stakeholders in order to identify the critical factors influencing South Sulawesi market development. Financial, market development, human resources, and operations are the four primary dimensions that categorize these factors. The AHP method is then used to determine the relative weights and priorities of each criterion and alternative strategy through a thorough evaluation. On the basis of the findings, three alternative strategies are identified: Full Third-Party Distributor, Stand Still, and Invest in Makassar Branch Development. PT MCM's optimal strategy is determined to be the development of the Makassar Branch through investment, as determined by the evaluation procedure. This business solution highlights the significance of investing in HR development and control, expanding the number of potential customers, and enhancing brand equity as key priorities for the Makassar Branch's success. Preventive measures and contingency plans are proposed to address prospective threats and challenges.
