Abstract

This study aims to address the main questions of how psychology-based student management is implemented at MAN 2 Banyuwangi, its role in strengthening students’ learning motivation and academic achievement, and the factors that hinder its implementation. The study is positioned within the field of educational management, emphasizing the integration of educational psychology approaches in student management practices at a public Islamic senior high school. A qualitative approach with a case study design was employed. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with the principal, vice principal for student affairs, guidance and counseling teachers, homeroom teachers, and students, and were reinforced by observations and document analysis. The data were analyzed descriptively using the interactive analysis model proposed by Miles and Huberman. Data trustworthiness was ensured through triangulation and member checking. The findings indicate that psychology-based student management is implemented in an integrated manner through psychological assessment from the student admission process, preventive and developmental guidance and counseling services, personal mentoring by homeroom teachers, and collaboration among educational stakeholders. These strategies significantly contribute to fulfilling students’ basic psychological needs (autonomy, competence, and relatedness) which in turn enhance learning motivation and academic achievement. However, the implementation faces several challenges, including the limited number of guidance and counseling teachers, administrative workload, limited service time, and varying levels of family support.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the implementation of the snakes and ladders game in stimulating the social-emotional development of children aged 4–5 years. This research employed a qualitative descriptive approach conducted at TK Aisyiyah Bustanul Athfal 2 Muncar involving 13 children and a classroom teacher as the main informant. Data were collected through participatory observation, semi-structured interviews, and documentation, and analyzed using an interactive model consisting of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that the implementation of the snakes and ladders game contributed to improvements in certain aspects of social-emotional development, particularly emotional regulation and cooperation, as children began to accept losing and wait for their turns. However, the development of empathy remained limited, while communication and self-confidence tended to be stable. The effectiveness of the game was influenced by the complexity of rules, competitive elements, and the teacher's role in providing scaffolding. These findings imply that while the snakes and ladders game can serve as an alternative learning medium, its design and implementation need to be adjusted to align with children's developmental characteristics to optimize social-emotional outcomes.
