Abstract

This article explores the critical issue of enhancing the pedagogical competence of lecturers at religious higher education institutions. Pedagogical competence is essential for lecturers to effectively deliver knowledge, foster critical thinking, and create an engaging learning environment. However, many lecturers face challenges in adapting to contemporary educational demands, such as integrating technology, applying innovative teaching strategies, and addressing diverse student needs. This study employs a qualitative approach through literature review and library research methods to identify the primary challenges and propose viable solutions. The findings indicate that limited professional development opportunities, insufficient institutional support, and resistance to change are the main obstacles. To overcome these barriers, the article suggests continuous training programs, collaborative learning environments, and institutional policies that encourage pedagogical enhancement. By fostering a culture of continuous learning and innovation, religious higher education institutions can significantly improve the teaching quality of their lecturers. This, in turn, contributes to better student outcomes and aligns educational practices with global standards. The research highlights the importance of ongoing collaboration between lecturers, educational leaders, and policymakers to create sustainable pedagogical improvements. The study concludes that addressing these challenges systematically will not only benefit lecturers but also enrich the overall academic environment at religious higher education institutions.

Abstract

Lecturers' social competence is essential in fostering a harmonious academic environment, particularly in religious universities where moral, spiritual, and cultural values intersect. This study investigates how social competence measured through communication, empathy, conflict management, and collaboration affects campus harmony. Employing a mixed-methods approach, data were collected through a survey of 150 lecturers and students and in-depth interviews with 15 lecturers. Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that social competence significantly predicts campus harmony. Communication and empathy emerged as the most influential dimensions, followed by collaboration and conflict management. Classical assumption tests confirmed the validity of the model. Thematic analysis of qualitative data reinforced these findings, highlighting that informal dialogue, emotional sensitivity, and cooperative engagement are central to building inclusive and respectful campus communities. The integration of both data types through triangulation validated the multidimensional impact of social competence. This study concludes that social competence must be institutionalized through structured training and policy reforms in religious universities to improve educational climate and interpersonal relations. Findings contribute to the discourse on relational pedagogy, emphasizing that social competence is not peripheral but central to holistic education.

Lecturers' social competence is one of the most crucial aspects in efforts to improve the quality of education in higher education, especially in the environment of Religious Higher Education, where in addition to being required to have superior and in- depth academic abilities, lecturers must also be able to develop adequate social competence in order to establish effective and harmonious interactions with students, fellow colleagues, and the wider community; in this article, various challenges faced by lecturers in Religious Higher Education in the process of developing social competence are discussed in depth, as well as solutions that can be applied to overcome the obstacles that arise in order to improve the quality of their social competence; this study uses a qualitative approach that allows detailed identification of internal and external factors that influence the development of lecturers' social competence, while providing practical recommendations that are expected to be a reference in supporting the development of sustainable social competence in religious higher education. The results of this study indicate that the development of social competence of lecturers in religious universities faces various significant challenges such as the lack of specific training in social skills, differences in values and cultures that affect interactions between lecturers and students and colleagues, and high academic loads that limit the time and energy of lecturers to develop social aspects. Therefore, strategic solutions that need to be implemented include organizing training and workshops that focus on developing communication skills, conflict management, and leadership.
