Purpose This study aims to present research evidence on the relevance of online gamification flip learning as a pedagogical instruction in promoting learning engagement when college students are impacted by the coronavirus pandemic. In this study, a gamified formative assessment was used to examine learner engagement and to evaluate the effectiveness of gamification within a synchronous online flipped instruction. Design/methodology/approach A multiphase mixed methods research design was used for this study. The evaluation relied on triangulated evidence gathered through questionnaire surveys and semi-structured interviews administered at an Indonesian college setting. Findings Based on the findings, gamified learning and formative assessments that adopt online flipped approaches have shown a positive bearing on learner engagement, despite the challenges learners face while harrowing through times of calamity. The results of this study provide prima facie support for the claim that the use of interactive gamified e-quizzes proves to be an innovative means of stimulating student engagement during the online class. Originality/value The results further suggest that a learning framework that incorporates both online flipped and gamification techniques provide the stimulus that is likely to forge an emotional connection that can inspire learner engagement, much needed when learners rally through calamitous events. This study has established evidential links between gamification and flipped classroom instructional delivery, particularly for online class settings. It is well-anticipated that gamification flip learning can continue to be implemented either in online, blended or face-to-face class instruction and particularly after the time of the pandemic.

Before the emergence of Covid-19 which developed throughout the world, the Indonesian Central Government had issued Law Number 6 of 2014 concerning Villages, which is a policy that regulates the level of Village administration. However, in this law there is no allocation of development funds and village empowerment which is the basis of the community at the level of village government administration (Gampong). Funds sourced from APBN, APBD Province or Regency, hope to support the progress of the village to become an independent village capable of organizing and managing. The allocation of village funds in the form of a Village Revenue and Expenditure Budget (APBG) is directed to finance government activities, development and community empowerment. For this reason, the Government has issued a special policy to handle Covid-19 by allocating Village Funds to address problems arising from the Covid-19 pandemic. Especially for the economic sector through the formation of Village-Owned Enterprises (BUMG) which is a business driver to improve the quality of life and realize the welfare of rural communities. With a descriptive qualitative approach using three methods, namely observation, interviews and documentation analysis. This study aims to determine business potential with local wisdom through a SWOT analysis with a focus on Village-Owned Enterprises.

This study reported that the Regulation of the State Minister for Women's Empowerment and Child Protection Number 11 of 2011 concerning Child-Friendly City Development has been executed through the equipment of public facilities for children in the Lhokseumawe city, Aceh Province. However, this program has not effectively been implemented and well-designed. Numerous obstacles are found such as a lack of friendly public spaces supported for children and no restrictions on smoking in public places. Therefore, the improvement and evaluation for the Child-Friendly City Development are needed in the city. This study suggests that the local government should immediately issue a policy on providing free certificates for children and building friendly public spaces. Another effort is to encourage society to actively participated in the program through campaigning the Child-Friendly City Development program. The authors also suggested that if the city is planned to be expanded into a friendly city for children, the local government must fulfill supported public facilities such as schools, libraries, playgrounds, and so on. All facilities must also meet the safety and comfort for children, and be safe from child abuse (e.g., violence, discrimination, racism, sexual abuse, and excessive exposure to children's data).
