Abstract

This article analyzed the role of social aspects and educational values in scholarship policy formation, focusing on a case study of implementation in Aceh, Indonesia. The research aimed to understand the impact of integrating social and educational factors in scholarship policymaking and how this affects the effectiveness of the program in promoting educational access and equity. This study used a qualitative approach to collect data from various sources, including interviews with stakeholders, analyses of policy documents, and surveys of scholarship recipients. The focus was on how the Aceh Scholarship policy was designed to address the specific social challenges of the region, particularly the impact of post-conflict and natural disasters. The results showed that effective scholarship policies require an in-depth understanding of the social context and educational needs. The Aceh Scholarship, for example, successfully demonstrated how policies tailored to local social conditions could increase educational participation and positively impact social and economic recovery. This analysis provided important insights for policymakers, education practitioners, and donor agencies on the importance of considering social factors in designing scholarship programs.

Abstract

This research aimed to describe the use of Indonesian and Acehnese languages in the learning process at PAUD Farisa, Aceh Besar District. This study used a qualitative approach with acase study method. The subjects of the study were three teachers, and data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The findings show that Indonesian is predominantly used by teachers in all stages of the learning process. In the opening stage, Indonesian is used to greet students and convey the learning objectives. During the main activities, Indonesian is utilized to explain materials and provide instructions, while Acehnese is selectively used for storytelling, singing traditional songs, and strengthening social bonds. In the closing stage, Indonesian is again used to summarize lessons and deliver messages to children. Barriers to using Acehnese include limited culturally-based learning resources and teachers' lack of proficiency in effectively using the language. Teachers address these challenges by creating simple media, such as illustrated folk tales, and involving children in interactive discussions. These findings support Vygotsky's theory on the role of social interaction in children's language development and Chomsky's theory emphasizing the innate ability of children to acquire language. This study recommends that teachers balance the use of both languages, provide culturally-based learning materials, and involve parents in supporting the preservation of the Acehnese language at home and school.Kata Kunci: Acehnese Language; Early Childhood Education Learning Process; Indonesian Language; Language Use

Abstract

This study examines the strategies employed by school principals to enhance the digital pedagogic competencies of teachers in three public high schools in Kluet Utara, Aceh, Indonesia. With the growing demand for digital integration in education, effective leadership is critical in preparing teachers to utilize digital tools in classroom settings. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, data were collected over a two-month period through semi-structured interviews, direct observations, and document analysis. The findings revealed three main themes: (1) Professional Development Initiatives, (2) Infrastructure and Resource Allocation, and (3) Collaborative Practices. Professional development programs, such as workshops and training sessions, played a crucial role in developing foundational digital skills. Infrastructure investments in internet connectivity and digital resources facilitated digital integration, though resource limitations in some schools posed challenges. Collaborative practices, including peer mentoring and team-based problem solving, played a crucial role in fostering a supportive environment for digital teaching. However, teachers faced challenges related to varying levels of digital proficiency, time constraints, and limited resources. This study highlights the importance of a comprehensive, leadership-driven approach to developing digital competencies among teachers, suggesting that a combination of continuous professional development, adequate resources, and collaborative support can significantly enhance digital integration in schools. These findings underscore the necessity for educational leaders to adopt a comprehensive, multifaceted approach to building digital competencies among teachers. By strategically integrating continuous professional development, adequate infrastructure, and collaborative frameworks, school leaders can significantly accelerate digital transformation efforts. For policymakers, this research underscores the crucial importance of aligning educational policies with resource allocation and leadership training to facilitate systemic digital integration. In an increasingly digitalized educational landscape, such leadership-driven strategies are indispensable for achieving equitable and effective teaching outcomes on a broader scale.

Abstract

Pengabdian ini dilakukan pada kelompok warga negara asing (WNA) yang bekerja di De Kranganjer Koffieplantage, Blitar, dengan tujuan memberikan edukasi terkait Pajak Pengahasilan (PPh) 2. Banyak WNA belum memahami kewajiban perpajakan mereka, terutama jenis pajak yang dikenakan dan proses pelaporannya. Pemehaman yang baik dalam aturan ini penting untuk menghindari sanksi administrasi serta memastikan kepatuhan terhadap regulasi yang berlaku. PPh 21dikenakan atas pengahsilan seperti gaji, honorarium, tunjangan, dan pembayaran lain terkait pekerjaan atau jasa. Status WNA bergantung durasi tinggal mereka di Indonesia. Jika lebih dari 183 hari dalam 12 bulan, mereka dikategorikan sebagai subjek pajak dalam negeri dan dikenakan tariff progresif seperti WNI. Jika kurang, pajak dipotong langsung oleh pemberi kerja. Edukasi ini menyoroti kemudahan akses informasi dan pelaporan pajak melalui e-Filing yang memungkinkan pelaporan online serta pembayaran melalui transfer bank atau kanal elektoronik. Kegiatan PKM ini dilakukan melalui tahap pendahuluan, pelaksanaan dan monitoring. Hasilnya menunjukan bahwa edukasi perpajakan sengat bermanfaat bagi WNA, mengingat masih banyak yang belum memahami kewajiban pajak mereka dan risik jika tidak mematuhi peraturan yang belaku

Abstract

The objectives of this study were to describe how teachers design the Computer-Based Madrasah Exam (CBME) questions for English subjects, to investigate learning strategies students use, and to explore the obstacles the students face in this exam. Questionnaires and interviews were used as the instruments to collect data for this study. A number of 95 ninth-grade students and two English teachers of Madrasah Tsanawiyah Negeri No. 1 (MTsN 1; this school level is equivalent to junior high schools) in South Aceh, Indonesia, participated in this study. The data were analyzed quantitatively and qualitatively using thematic analysis. The results revealed that in designing the assessment of CBME, the teachers used four strategies which were preparing for the change in the final exam model, selecting sources in designing the exam questions, preparing students to face the exam in the new model, and resolving obstacles in developing the exam questions. Meanwhile, the students used five strategies in facing the exam, they are managing time, motivating themselves, creating study groups, practicing, and strengthening basic abilities. Furthermore, the obstacles that the students faced in the exam are a lack of skill in using a computer for the exam, slow internet access, limited computer availability, limitation of vocabulary mastery, taking time to understand questions, and peers interventions. Thus, this study suggests that more training is still needed for teachers in designing the assessment model of CMBE and the school also need sufficient facilities before they enforce CMBE to their students.
