Abstract

The integration of digital technology in education is increasingly recognized as a strategic effort to support character development and improve student discipline. This study explores the development and implementation of a digital-based attendance system to enhance the discipline of fifth-grade students at SD Negeri 62 Palembang. Employing a research and development (R&D) approach based on the Borg and Gall model, this study involved stages from preliminary research to product refinement. The digital attendance system utilizes barcode technology, allowing real-time and automated recording of student attendance. In the context of Indonesian elementary education, the use of barcode-based attendance represents a novel and practical innovation, addressing long-standing challenges of manual record-keeping and promoting digital literacy among students and teachers alike. Data were collected through expert validation questionnaires, user practicality assessments by teachers and students, and discipline observations. Quantitative analysis revealed that the developed product was highly valid, with expert approval ratings indicating strong content and media reliability. The practicality test showed 98% of teachers and 100% of students responded favorably. Effectiveness was evaluated through pretest and posttest assessments of student discipline, supported by statistical analysis using the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test and Mann-Whitney U Test, both showing significant improvements in the experimental groups (p = 0.000). These findings demonstrate that digital attendance systems can significantly increase student punctuality and overall discipline. This study contributes to the growing literature on educational technology adoption in elementary schools and provides practical insights for schools seeking innovative digital solutions to support character education and school management.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the influence of boarding school culture and self-efficacy, both partially and simultaneously, on the job satisfaction of honorary teachers using a quantitative method. It involves 89 honorary teacher respondents from boarding school in the SU II district of Palembang city. Data were collected through questionnaires and documentation, then analyzed using simple and multiple linear regression techniques. The results show that, partially, boarding school culture has an influence of 99.7% and self-efficacy has an influence of 99.1%. Meanwhile, simultaneously, boarding school culture and self-efficacy have an influence of 99.7% on the job satisfaction of honorary teachers. This study is still limited to the boarding school environment, with most previous studies focusing partially on more general contexts. These findings offer a new contribution by simultaneously considering both variables, indicating the importance of strengthening boarding school culture and empowering self-efficacy to improve the well-being of honorary teachers, which can influence the quality of education.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the principal’s strategies in planning, implementing, and evaluating Merdeka Curriculum and its contribution to improving the quality of education at SD Negeri 3 Margo Bhakti, Mesuji District, Ogan Komering Ilir Regency. As the first School leader (Sekolah Penggerak) in the area, SDN 3 Margo Bhakti has emerged as a pioneer and reference point in educational transformation, with the highest number of students among nearby elementary schools. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed to explore the leadership strategies adopted by the school principal in navigating the challenges and opportunities of Merdeka Curriculum implementation. The findings show that the principal’s strategy is organized into three main steps: planning, which uses SWOT analysis and matches the school’s goals; implementation, which focuses on teamwork among teachers, technology use, community participation, and clear budget management; and evaluation, which happens regularly through supervision and analysis of academic data. Merdeka Curriculum has greatly improved the quality of education at the school, making learning more flexible, enjoyable, and meaningful, while also promoting character development through the Pancasila Student Profile. Additionally, teachers receive ongoing training, mentoring, support from Merdeka Mengajar platform, and varied teaching methods. With strong leadership and steady execution, SDN 3 Margo Bhakti has successfully built an innovative, inclusive, and forward-looking learning environment.

Abstract

This study examines the individual and combined effects of academic supervision and school environment on education quality in public elementary schools across Mesuji District, addressing three key objectives: (1) assessing academic supervision's impact, (2) evaluating school environment's influence, and (3) measuring their synergistic contribution. Employing a quantitative causal design, we surveyed 122 teachers from 10 systematically sampled public elementary schools (representing 44% of the district's 277 teachers across 25 schools). Data collection combined validated questionnaires (α=0.87) with institutional documentation, analyzed through Pearson correlation and hierarchical multiple regression (p<0.05). Findings reveal significant positive influences: academic supervision independently accounted for 32% variance in education quality (β=0.47, p<0.01), while school environment explained 28% (β=0.42, p<0.01). Their combined effect explained 67% of quality variance (R²=0.67, F=58.34, p<0.001), demonstrating synergistic enhancement beyond individual factors. This study introduces an integrated quality predictor model that: (1) quantifies the multiplier effect of combining supervision and environmental factors, and (2) establishes threshold values for effective supervision in resource-constrained settings - a previously unmeasured dimension in developing educational contexts. Three actionable strategies emerge: Implementing fortnightly supervision cycles with classroom observation protocols Optimizing physical environments through noise-reduction and learning space redesign Developing school climate improvement teams to monitor psychosocial factors. The research makes dual contributions by: (1) advancing theoretical understanding of environmental-supervisory interactions in educational ecosystems, and (2) providing an evidence-based framework for simultaneous quality improvement interventions in comparable rural school systems.

Abstract

Abstract: The principal's strategy is an important factor in determining the success of quality improvement in schools. This study aims to identify and describe the role of the principal, the principal's strategy and the obstacles faced by the principal in improving the quality of learning. To achieve these objectives, this study uses a qualitative approach with descriptive methods. Data collection techniques are carried out through observation, interviews and documentation study. Data analysis procedures are data reduction, data presentation and verification. Meanwhile, the research subjects were school principals, vice principals and teachers. The results showed that the role of the principal in improving the quality of learning was going well. The strategies that have been carried out by the principal in improving the quality of learning include: increasing the teaching ability of teachers, utilizing media and educational facilities, implementing regular supervision, establishing cooperation with the community and implementing strict time discipline for both teachers and students. The obstacle faced by the principal in improving the quality of learning at SMP Negeri 9 Prabumulih is the lack of permanent teaching staff, so that many teachers are used as honorary teachers and there are still teachers who teach not according to their educational qualifications in order to cover the shortage of teachers in certain subjects.

Abstract

This study aims to: (1) analyze training models for enhancing information and communication technology (ICT) competency among elementary teachers, and (2) develop an In-House Training (IHT) module to improve ICT skills. Using Research and Development (R&D) methodology, the study progressed through three phases: preliminary research, module development, and testing. Fourteen teachers and principals from SD Negeri 38 Palembang participated as subjects. The study produced “The Excitement of Learning Media Through Canva”, a validated IHT module demonstrating high feasibility, with 88.54% (material experts) and 91.07% (media experts) approval rates. Practicality assessments rated the module 4.56/5 (very good), while effectiveness was confirmed by post-test scores averaging 90.66%. These results affirm the module’s validity, practicality, and effectiveness for teacher training. Novelty lies in the module’s integration of Canva as a user-friendly, creative tool for ICT skill development, tailored specifically for elementary educators. Practical implications include providing schools with a ready-to-implement, cost-effective training solution that enhances digital literacy. The study contributes to educational technology by offering a replicable model for teacher professional development, bridging the gap between ICT theory and classroom application. Future research could explore longitudinal impacts on teaching practices or adapt the module for diverse educational contexts.
