Abstract

The digital transformation in educational institutions demands a more effective, well-documented, and technology-adaptive model of instructional supervision. This study aims to analyze the implementation of Learning Management System (LMS)-based academic supervision and its impact on teacher performance and instructional quality. Employing a descriptive qualitative approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and document analysis involving the principal, vice principal for curriculum, and teachers. The findings reveal that LMS-based supervision is systematically implemented through digital scheduling, instructional document uploads, classroom recording submissions, and direct feedback via LMS features. Digital supervision significantly enhances teacher discipline, administrative consistency, digital competence, and the quality of instructional planning. LMS also accelerates the feedback cycle and strengthens reflective teaching practices. However, several challenges emerge, including unstable internet connectivity, teacher psychological pressure, and difficulties in digital adaptation. LMS-based supervision positively contributes to instructional quality and supports school quality management. This study highlights the importance of integrating digital supervision into teacher professional development, particularly in vocational education settings.

Abstract

This study aims to develop and analyze a self-acceptance instrument based on Al-Ghazali’s theory using the Rasch Model approach, as well as to detect item bias or Differential Item Functioning (DIF) based on gender. The instrument was constructed based on four main aspects from Al-Ghazali’s theory: tawakal, syukur, sabar, ikhlas. The participants were 439 active ungraduate students of IAIN Pontianak in the 2024 academic year, selected using proportionate cluster random sampling technique. The content validity of the instrument items was tested using Aiken’s V formula, involving six experts and obtained an average value 0f 0.95, which is categorized as very high. Data analysis was conducted using the Winsteps software. The results showed that out of 43 items, several items were identified as having potential DIF. Specifically, in the aspects of tawakal (5 items), syukur (6 items), sabar (2 items), and ikhlas (1 items) indicating possible bias based on gender. This research is expected to serve as a foundation for developing Islamic psychology instruments that are more objective, contextual, and relevant for both modern scientific studies and the implementation of personality development or self-development programs for students, focusing on nurturing the character traits of tawakal, sabar, syukur, and ikhlas.

Abstract

Critical thinking is one of the key competencies college students must possess to face the challenges of higher education and the increasingly complex world of work. This ability enables college students to analyze information objectively, evaluate various alternative solutions, and make rational decisions based on available evidence. However, various educational evaluation results indicate that college students’ critical thinking is still at varying levels and is not optimal. This study aims to analyze the influence of curiosity on college students’ critical thinking. The analysis technique used in this study is multiple regression analysis, aimed at determining the accuracy of predictions and testing the research hypotheses of the independent and dependent variables. The results of the study showed that curiosity was the most consistent factor that had a positive and significant influence on critical thinking. This finding confirms that the development of college students’ critical thinking does not only depend on individual internal factors, but is also influenced by the level of learning motivation that college students have.
