Integrating STEAM Education through Shibori Art: Improving Self-Love and Self-Esteem Among Women
This study aimed to discuss the effectiveness of Shibori creative art in fostering self-love and self-esteem as a means to empower women's roles. The study was conducted at RPTRA Kayu Manis, North Jakarta, with Shibori art treatment. The number of respondents involved was 10 people, aged 25-50 years, women with junior and high school education levels. Data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and analysis of the participants' work and quantitative data from pre-test and post-test experiments on the self-love measurement scale with a reliability value of the self-love measurement scale, r = 0.89 and a validity value of Cronbach's Alpha > 0.7, and a self-esteem measurement scale with a reliability value of the self-esteem measurement tool r = 0.82 and a validity value of Cronbach's Alpha = 0.81. The paired T-test results showed significant improvements in both aspects, with self-love increasing by 4.2 points (t=6.89, p<0.001) and self-esteem increasing by 5.3 points (t=9.81, p<0.001), with a large effect size (Cohen's d >2). Supporting factors such as freedom of expression, meditative nature, and pride in one's work played a crucial role. However, the complexity of the technique, the tendency towards self-judgment, and time constraints can hinder its effectiveness. For optimization, recommendations include modifying the technique (e.g., using a simpler method), integrating cognitive reflection, and grouping participants according to ability level.

Implementation of Typography Art as a Craft with Eco Print Technique
The research uses a qualitative method based on research-led practice to explore capital typography (uppercase letters) as a medium for art creation as well as cultural education. The focus of the research includes analysis of motifs, techniques, colors, and materials, with data sources obtained from sources (craftsmen, designers, cultural experts), literature studies, and visual documentation. Data collection was conducted through observation, in-depth interviews, questionnaires (target: students/community), and creative experiments. The ecoprint technique, or eco-printing, is a method of dyeing fabric with natural dyes. In this study, the ecoprint technique, which applies natural dyes to fabric, focused on works featuring capital typography—particularly complex letters like G, Q, and O—to emphasize the value of precision and patience in the craft. The technical challenges of letter formation were utilized as a means of recognizing local wisdom, with each stage documented and critically reflected upon. The resulting work is not only assessed in terms of aesthetics, but also its educational function, namely as a cultural learning tool through a visual approach. Validation involved design experts, educators, and cultural communities to ensure the suitability of the work to the social context. The results show that capital typography can be an effective bridge between art and cultural education, with applicable outputs such as interactive workshops or exhibitions. Audience surveys revealed an increased understanding of cultural values after interaction with the works. This research contributes to the field of cultural preservation through design innovation and a fun, non-formal education model. The implication is that a similar approach can be replicated for other cultural elements, strengthening local identity as well as attracting the younger generation.

Exploring Students’ Conceptual Understanding of Newton’s Law in Senior High School
This study aims to explore high school students' understanding of Newton's laws of motion. The research method used is qualitative descriptive, with data collection through a two-tier diagnostic test. The instrument not only measures correct answers but also explores the reasons behind students' choices. Data analysis was conducted by dividing students' understanding into four categories: (1) Understanding the concept; (2) Misconception; (3) Not understanding the concept; and (4) Guessing. The results showed that students understood the concept of changes in velocity due to changes in the direction of force, with 56.2% of students understanding the concept. The largest misconception was found in the subtopic of Newton's Third Law, which reached 68.5%. Meanwhile, the percentage of students who did not understand the concept was lower than that of students who had misconceptions in all subtopics. These findings confirm that the majority of students did not understand the concept, but had initial understandings that were unscientific or inappropriate. Therefore, teachers need to prepare learning strategies that are not only informative but also reinforce concepts.
