Abstract

School-Based Management (SBM) promotes school autonomy and stakeholder participation in managing educational resources to improve school quality. This study aims to analyze SBM strategies in enhancing teacher welfare and social competence at SDN 4 and SDN 10 Tapak Tuan, Aceh Selatan. A qualitative case study approach was employed to explore SBM implementation in authentic school settings. Data were collected through participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and document analysis involving principals, teachers, school committee members, and supervisors. The findings indicate that SBM improves teacher welfare through participatory decision-making, transparent financial management, and strengthened collaboration with stakeholders. In addition, SBM fosters teachers’ social competence by promoting collegial teamwork, effective communication, and active engagement within the school community. Although challenges such as limited funding and workload demands persist, adaptive leadership and collaborative support contribute to sustainable implementation. In conclusion, SBM functions as a strategic framework for empowering teachers and strengthening professional capacity, thereby supporting quality improvement in elementary education.

Abstract

This study aims to develop an interactive learning media based on ethnoscience integrated with spiritual values for elementary school IPAS learning, as well as to examine its feasibility and effectiveness in improving students’ learning outcomes. However, previous studies on interactive learning media in elementary IPAS tend to focus primarily on technical features without integrating local cultural contexts and spiritual values, resulting in less meaningful learning experiences. Therefore, this study offers a novel approach by integrating ethnoscience and spiritual values into gamified interactive media. The research employed a Research and Development (R&D) approach using the 4D model, which includes the stages of define, design, develop, and disseminate. The participants consisted of 28 fifth-grade students at SD Negeri 27 Banda Aceh. Data were collected through observation, questionnaires, interviews, and learning achievement tests. The findings revealed that the developed media achieved a validity level of 90%, categorized as highly valid. In terms of effectiveness, students’ learning outcomes improved significantly, as indicated by the increase in the average pretest score from 65.00 to 90.18 in the posttest, with an N-Gain score of 0.72 (high category). Furthermore, students’ responses toward the media reached 91.9%, indicating a very positive perception. Therefore, the interactive learning media based on ethnoscience and spiritual values is considered both feasible and effective for use in elementary school IPAS learning.

Abstract

Teacher performance is an important factor in determining the success of the educational process. However, various problems such as low discipline, lack of work motivation, and weak mastery of learning strategies continue to be challenges within the school environment. In this context, the principal has a strategic role as an educational leader who is capable of improving teacher professionalism and performance through the implementation of effective leadership styles. This study aims to analyze the principal’s leadership style in improving teacher performance, teacher work discipline, and the obstacles encountered in efforts to enhance teacher performance at SMPN 1 Darul Imarah. The research employs a qualitative approach with a descriptive method. Data were collected through observations, in-depth interviews, and documentation studies involving the principal, vice principal, and teachers as research participants. The findings indicate that the principal applies a combined and adaptive leadership style that integrates transformational, transactional, visionary, and situational approaches. The transformational style is reflected through motivation, coaching, and exemplary behavior. The transactional style is implemented through the enforcement of rules, rewards, and sanctions. The visionary style is demonstrated through the communication of the school’s vision and the involvement of teachers in achieving organizational goals. Meanwhile, the situational style is applied by adjusting leadership approaches to the conditions and characteristics of teachers. The implementation of these various leadership styles has created a collaborative and conducive work environment that is oriented toward improving the quality of education. The obstacles encountered include limited facilities and infrastructure, low discipline among some teachers, and insufficient mastery of learning strategies. To address these challenges, the principal conducts coaching, training, supervision, and the provision of supporting facilities. The study concludes that the principal’s leadership style plays a significant role in improving teacher performance and enhancing the effectiveness of the learning process.

Abstract

Perkembangan teknologi digital telah mengubah pola interaksi, belajar, dan bermain siswa sekolah dasar, namun belum diimbangi dengan kesiapan etika bermedia yang memadai. Meningkatnya kasus perundungan daring, paparan konten negatif, serta rendahnya kesadaran privasi digital menunjukkan perlunya penguatan etika digital berbasis nilai moral dan spiritual. Penelitian ini bertujuan merumuskan model pendidikan etika digital Islami berbasis nilai Qur’ani untuk penguatan karakter siswa sekolah dasar. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan jenis studi kepustakaan melalui penelusuran literatur Al-Qur’an, buku ilmiah, dan artikel jurnal yang relevan. Data dianalisis menggunakan analisis isi untuk mengidentifikasi nilai Qur’ani yang kontekstual dengan perilaku digital siswa. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahwa model pendidikan etika digital Islami dibangun atas tiga pilar utama, yaitu internalisasi nilai Qur’ani dalam konteks digital, literasi digital beretika, dan penguatan ekosistem tripusat pendidikan yang melibatkan keluarga, sekolah, dan masyarakat. Nilai sidq, amanah, tabayyun, hifzh al-‘irdh, dan ‘iffah terbukti relevan sebagai fondasi etika digital siswa. Kontekstualisasi nilai tersebut dalam situasi digital konkret menjadikan pendidikan etika lebih aplikatif dalam kehidupan sehari-hari. Model ini diharapkan menjadi kerangka konseptual dalam membimbing siswa menggunakan teknologi secara bijak, bertanggung jawab, dan berakhlak.AbstractThe development of digital technology has transformed the patterns of interaction, learning, and play among elementary school students; however, this transformation has not been accompanied by adequate readiness in digital media ethics. The increasing cases of cyberbullying, exposure to negative content, and low awareness of digital privacy indicate the urgent need to strengthen digital ethics grounded in moral and spiritual values. This study aims to formulate a model of Islamic digital ethics education based on Qur’anic values to strengthen the character of elementary school students. The research employs a qualitative approach using a library research method through the examination of the Qur’an, scholarly books, and relevant journal articles. Data were analyzed using content analysis to identify Qur’anic values that are contextual to students’ digital behavior. The findings reveal that the Islamic digital ethics education model is constructed upon three main pillars: the internalization of Qur’anic values within the digital context, ethical digital literacy, and the reinforcement of the tripartite educational ecosystem involving family, school, and community. The values of sidq (truthfulness), amanah (trustworthiness), tabayyun (verification), hifzh al-‘irdh (protection of honor), and ‘iffah (modesty/self-restraint) are shown to be relevant as foundational principles of students’ digital ethics. The contextualization of these values in concrete digital situations makes ethics education more applicable in daily life. This model is expected to serve as a conceptual framework in guiding students to use technology wisely, responsibly, and in accordance with noble character.

Abstract

Education have shifted into digital environments, where algorithm-driven platforms intensify extremist discourse and weaken tolerance among students. Previous studies highlight the limitations of conventional deradicalization programs, which rely on offline seminars or punitive measures and fail to address the digital and cognitive mechanisms of radicalization. To address this gap, this study investigates whether integrating Artificial Intelligence (AI), Internet of Things (IoT), blockchain, and cognitive science can provide an effective and ethical counter-radicalization framework for universities. Guided by the hypothesis that a multidisciplinary approach combining technological detection with cognitive restructuring yields measurable psychosocial impact, a Research and Development (R&D) design was applied across six stages, involving students, faculty mentors, and expert validators in Aceh, Indonesia. The AI–NLP module, fine-tuned with local data, achieved high accuracy (precision 0.94; recall 0.89), while CBT-based cognitive microlearning increased tolerance scores by 28% (p < 0.01) and reduced risky online interactions by 40%. Findings demonstrate that integrating disruptive technologies with cognitive-behavioral methods produces both technical and attitudinal benefits. The study contributes theoretically to technology-mediated deradicalization and practically to policy-driven curriculum design, with implications for cross-cultural scalability and longitudinal research..

Abstract

This study aims to describe the implementation of the 5S culture (Smile, Greet, Greeting, Politeness, and Courtesy) in shaping the religious character of students at SD Negeri 5, Banda Aceh City. This research is based on the importance of instilling religious character in elementary school students as a foundation for spiritual, social, and moral attitudes in daily life. A qualitative descriptive approach was applied in this study. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, then analyzed using data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing techniques. The results show that the implementation of the 5S culture is carried out systematically and continuously through daily habituation activities in the school environment. The practice of smiling, greeting, and greeting is applied in interactions between teachers and students as well as between students. Meanwhile, politeness and courtesy are manifested in respectful behavior, the use of appropriate language, and compliance with school regulations. The implementation of the 5S culture has been proven to positively contribute to the formation of students' religious character, particularly in aspects of politeness, empathy, and respect for others. However, several challenges were identified, including inconsistent implementation and limited parental involvement at home. This study concludes that the 5S culture is effective in fostering religious character in students at SD Negeri 5, Banda Aceh City, through habituation and exemplary behavior demonstrated by the school community. The study recommends strengthening collaboration between schools and parents, as well as enhancing habituation programs to improve character building outcomes.

Abstract

This research is driven by the gap between the Love-Based Curriculum paradigm—which highlights mercy, empathy, manners, and compassion—and classroom learning practices, which remain confined to cognitive outcomes. This gap hinders effective character education, especially in Madrasah Ibtidaiyah settings. This study seeks to design a structured, applicable, and contextually relevant Love-Based Curriculum Learning Model and to evaluate its validity, practicality, and effectiveness in enhancing character education among students at Sabang State Madrasah Ibtidaiyah. The research employs a Research and Development (R&D) approach using the ADDIE model, encompassing analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation stages. Participants included teachers and students, and data were gathered through observation, interviews, questionnaires, and documentation. Study findings show the model is valid (average score: 84%), practical (85% for learning syntax, 88% for teacher response), and effective, as evidenced by an increase in student character from 66% to 86%. The model weaves mercy, empathy, manners, and local wisdom into learning syntax through empathy-driven introductions, experiential exploration, value reflection, and character reinforcement. Consequently, this model demonstrably enhances character education and is recommended as an alternative instructional method in madrasas.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the principal's management strategies in building an anti-bullying school culture at SMP Negeri 1 Sabang City and MTsN 1 Sabang City, and to identify supporting factors, inhibiting factors, and similarities and differences in the strategies implemented in both schools. This study used a qualitative approach with a comparative study design through data collection techniques in the form of interviews, observation, and documentation. The results of the study indicate that the principal's management strategies in building an anti-bullying school culture are implemented through the systematic application of management functions, including planning, organizing, implementing, and monitoring and evaluating. In the planning stage, the principal identifies school needs, formulates program objectives, and develops bullying prevention policies tailored to student characteristics and school culture. The organizing stage is carried out by forming a bullying prevention team involving teachers, homeroom teachers, guidance counselors, the student council (OSIS), the school committee, and parents. The strategy is implemented through various preventive and educational programs such as anti-bullying socialization, integration of empathy and tolerance values in learning, routine character building, and child-friendly school campaigns. Supervision is carried out through reporting mechanisms, gradual case handling, student mentoring, and evaluation with teachers and the school committee. The success of this strategy was supported by the principal's visionary leadership, teacher support, school committee involvement, and parent participation. However, several obstacles remained, such as the lack of written SOPs for handling bullying, the perception that verbal teasing is just a joke, inconsistent enforcement of rules, the influence of social media, and limited supervision outside of school hours. This study also showed that both schools had similarities in implementing management functions and a character-based preventive approach, but differed in the values they used, namely universal character values and religious values. The research findings confirm that effective anti-bullying strategies require strong leadership, systematic management, and collaboration between schools, families, and the community
