INTRODUCTION
Put your text here (justified, 1-spaced and in 11-pt, Book Antiqua font). In the section, start by clearly defining the main problem your research addresses. Provide relevant background information to give context and explain why this problem is important. Identify gaps in existing literature or practices that highlight the need for further investigation. Describe the impact of the problem, emphasizing its significance and potential consequences if left unaddressed. Conclude this section by stating the purpose of your research, outlining how it aims to address or solve the identified problem, setting the stage for the research questions or hypotheses that follow. This section should effectively prepare the reader by emphasizing the importance and relevance of your study.

BASIC AND DEVELOPMENT HYPOTHESIS
Put your text here (justified, 1-spaced and in 11-pt, Book Antiqua font). This section of a journal article should provide a comprehensive review of previous literature and the theoretical framework relevant to the study. It begins with a literature review that summarizes key findings from prior research related to the topic, highlighting significant results, methodologies, and identifying gaps that the current study aims to address. This review should establish the context for the study, showing how previous research has contributed to the field and where further exploration is needed. Following this, the section should outline the theoretical framework that underpins the study, explaining the key theories and concepts that inform the research. If multiple theories or models are utilized, it is important to describe how they interact or integrate to provide a comprehensive understanding of the research problem. The section concludes with the development of research hypotheses, clearly articulated and directly linked to the reviewed literature and theoretical constructs. Each hypothesis should be specific and justified, explaining the expected relationships between variables and how these hypotheses can be empirically tested. This section serves as a bridge between theory and empirical testing, providing a strong foundation for addressing the research questions posed in the study.

RESEARCH METHODS
Put your text here (justified, 1-spaced and in 11-pt, Book Antiqua font). In this section, specify the research approach (quantitative, qualitative, or mixed-methods) and justify its suitability for your study. Describe the sampling method used (e.g., random, stratified), how participants or data points are selected, and provide the sample size and rationale. Outline the data analysis techniques employed (e.g., statistical tests, thematic analysis) and mention any software tools used to analyze the data.
 
RESULT AND DISCUSSION

CONCLUSION AND SUGGESTION
Put your text here (justified, 1-spaced and in 11-pt, Book Antiqua font). Consist of conclusion and also suggestion. Conclusion should be the answer of research problem, unequivocal statement. Suggestion should be logical and appropriate. The author should present brief conclusions from the results of research with suggestions for advanced researchers or general readers
