Abstract

In a global educational context marked by rapid social change, digital transformation, and increasing concerns over moral and character formation, schools are challenged to balance academic excellence with the cultivation of ethical and religious values. This study examines how religious culture learning is planned, implemented, and evaluated in an Islamic junior secondary school, and assesses its contribution to shaping students’ religious character. Employing a qualitative phenomenological design, data were collected through in-depth interviews with school leaders, teachers, students, and parents. The data were analyzed thematically to capture participants’ lived experiences and institutional practices related to religious culture learning. The findings indicate that the school has systematically integrated religious culture into instructional planning, classroom practices, and evaluation processes. Active learning strategies, the use of diverse learning media, and consistent habituation practices were found to effectively support the development of students’ religious character. Nevertheless, the study also identifies challenges arising from contemporary social dynamics and external influences that may affect character formation. The study concludes that religious culture learning, when supported by collaborative engagement with parents and the community, can function as a meaningful pedagogical strategy for character education. These findings imply that Islamic educational institutions need adaptive, context-sensitive models of religious culture learning to ensure continued relevance and effectiveness in fostering holistic student development.

Abstract

This study addresses the challenge of improving madrasah quality amid rapid educational transformation, in which many institutions still rely on bureaucratic, routine-based management practices that limit innovation and institutional learning. The objective of this research is to develop and analyze an Islamic values-based learning organization model as a strategic framework for sustainably enhancing the quality of madrasahs. The study employed a qualitative case study approach conducted in three State Islamic Senior High Schools (MAN) in Majalengka Regency. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and document analysis involving principals, teachers, administrative staff, and students. The data were analyzed thematically to identify patterns of organizational transformation and quality improvement. The findings reveal that the implementation of the model led to measurable improvements in four key areas: (1) increased teacher professionalism through collaborative and reflective learning practices, (2) transformation of instructional methods toward participatory and technology-supported learning, (3) strengthening of Islamic-based organizational culture characterized by shared values such as taqwa, ikhlas, and amanah, and (4) enhanced institutional autonomy through participatory and ethical leadership. The integration of learning organization principles with Islamic values functioned not merely as normative guidance but as operational mechanisms driving continuous improvement. This study concludes that an Islamic values-based learning organization model provides a holistic, context-sensitive framework that promotes both academic excellence and character development in madrasahs.

Abstract

This study addresses the growing challenge faced by Islamic da’wah institutions in balancing managerial effectiveness with the preservation of spiritual values. Many religious organizations struggle to integrate performance-based leadership with transcendental and prophetic principles, leading to either managerial stagnation or value dilution. In response to this issue, this research aims to examine how a spiritual-transformational leadership model is constructed at the Al-Bahjah Da'wah Development Institute (LPD) and how it shapes organizational culture and institutional commitment. This study employs a qualitative design grounded in a constructivist paradigm. Data were collected through systematic field observation, in-depth interviews with organizational actors, and analysis of institutional documentation. The data were analyzed using thematic interpretation involving coding, categorization, and reflective triangulation to ensure credibility and analytical rigor. The findings reveal that leadership at LPD Al-Bahjah is built on the integration of tawhid-based values, moral exemplarity (uswah), a visionary da’wah orientation, and the structured empowerment of human resources. This integration generates a religious-adaptive organizational culture characterized by collective worship practices, high member loyalty, ethical innovation, and sustained institutional growth. The study demonstrates that spiritual and transformational dimensions function synergistically rather than separately, forming a leadership model that strengthens organizational identity, commitment, and resilience amid contemporary social change.

Abstract

Community service aims to assist the implementation of educational evaluation in pesantren as an effort to improve the quality of integrated learning programs. Pesantren as educational institutions that organize academic, religious, and character building learning require a reflective and sustainable evaluation system. Service activities are carried out with a Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach that places pesantren managers and educators as active participants in all stages of assistance. The service process is carried out in stages through identification of program conditions, implementation of educational evaluation, joint reflection, and formulation of recommendations for improvement. The results of the assistance show that the foreign language program, tahfidz Al-Qur'an, academics, and character building through halaqoh tarbawiyah already have positive and sustainable learning practices. Evaluative assistance helps strengthen these practices through collaborative alignment of program objectives, processes and evaluation. Educational evaluation is understood not as an instrument of control, but as a means of institutional learning and strengthening a culture of quality. This service contributes to the development of humanist, participatory, and contextualized educational evaluation practices in supporting the sustainable improvement of pesantren education quality.
