Abstract

Early childhood education (ECE) is fundamental for fostering lifelong learning and cognitive development, yet teachers’ varying conceptual understandings of learning environments can significantly shape children’s opportunities to explore, interact, and think critically. This multi-site qualitative study—the first within the Muhammadiyah Aisyiyah Kindergarten (TK ABA) network—analyzes variations in teachers’ perceptions and practices in designing learning environments that promote cognitive growth across three schools in Batu City, Indonesia. A qualitative descriptive approach was applied through classroom observations, in-depth interviews, and document analysis. Findings reveal distinct pedagogical orientations: TK ABA 01 demonstrated constructivist and inquiry-based practices with integrated loose parts; TK ABA 02 maintained conventional teacher-centered instruction; and TK ABA 03 reflected transitional patterns through exploratory outdoor learning with limited planning consistency. Quantitative descriptors supported these findings: planning quality (ABA01 = 4.6; ABA02 = 2.4; ABA03 = 3.8) and child engagement (ABA01 = 85%; ABA02 = 46%; ABA03 = 71%). These results underscore the centrality of environmental design, creative media use, and teacher collaboration in enhancing cognitive stimulation. The study offers novel insights into intra-network variations in early childhood pedagogy and recommends professional development that emphasizes ecological awareness and environment-based learning design to ensure equitable cognitive experiences for all children.

Abstract

The implementation of character values through the Pancasila Student Profile is a complex task, facing various obstacles, particularly due to the rapid and often uncontrolled technological developments in the era of Society 5.0. This study employs a qualitative descriptive method, utilizing thematic analysis to identify key patterns in student character development, along with source triangulation to ensure the validity of findings. Based on this research, strengthening students' character through the integration of local wisdom in P5 activities at SMA Muhammadiyah Boleng, specifically through the Tiba Meka dance, has proven to be effective. Observations and interviews indicate a 30% increase in students’ cultural awareness, demonstrating that learning the Tiba Meka dance not only helps students recognize and preserve their cultural heritage but also cultivates discipline, responsibility, cooperation, and cultural pride. Furthermore, the active involvement of teachers and strong parental support significantly contribute to the success of this program. The findings highlight that the P5 initiative, through traditional dance, fosters character formation rooted in local identity and strengthens students' connection to their cultural heritage. This study suggests that integrating local wisdom into education, particularly through performing arts, is a practical and effective strategy for shaping students with strong personal and cultural values, offering valuable insights for the broader Indonesian educational system.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the role of Generation Z in utilizing social media as a platform for political activism and mobilization in the digital era, with a particular focus on East Java Province. Social media has evolved into a digital public sphere that enables young people to access political information, express their views, and build political engagement in a more open and dynamic manner. This study employs a descriptive qualitative approach using a case study method involving individual digital activists and the student organization BEM SI East Java Region as research subjects. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, documentation of social media activities, and literature review. The findings indicate that social media plays a significant role in shaping Generation Z’s political communication strategies and encouraging the gradual mobilization of political participation through digital networks. However, digital political activism also faces several challenges, including the spread of disinformation, opinion polarization, social pressure, and concerns regarding digital regulation. This study concludes that social media serves as a strategic instrument in transforming Generation Z’s political participation toward more participatory digital democratic practices, while still requiring strengthened digital literacy and supportive policies to ensure a healthy and inclusive digital space.

Abstract

The Jakarta–Bandung corridor represents a strategic intercity route with high mobility demand and diverse transport alternatives. The introduction of KCIC Whoosh offers significantly shorter travel time compared to road-based modes; however, it has not automatically shifted user preferences away from shuttle/travel services, intercity buses, and private cars. This indicates that mode choice decisions are influenced not only by travel time, but also by trade-offs involving cost, accessibility, flexibility, and user characteristics. Therefore, this study aims to analyze consumer preferences and identify the key determinants of mode choice between KCIC Whoosh and road transport modes. This study adopts the Discrete Choice Model framework based on the Random Utility Model using a stated preference approach. Data were collected through an online survey targeting respondents with prior travel experience on the Jakarta–Bandung corridor. The analysis applies binary logistic regression under pairwise comparisons between KCIC Whoosh and major road transport modes. The results indicate that KCIC Whoosh is generally preferred by respondents. Speed and safety consistently emerge as the most influential factors in shaping mode choice. However, other attributes remain important depending on the competing mode. Affordability becomes a key barrier in comparison with shuttle/travel services, while accessibility, frequency, comfort, and punctuality significantly influence decisions in comparison with intercity buses. In contrast, income shows a positive association with the choice of Whoosh relative to private cars, whereas accessibility and flexibility remain constraints. Based on survey data collected from 180 respondents using a stated preference approach, these findings highlight that improving the competitiveness of KCIC Whoosh requires not only maintaining its advantages in speed and safety, but also enhancing affordability, strengthening accessibility, and improving service integration to better meet user needs.
