Abstract

The implementation of global curricula in Islamic schools faces challenges, as some teachers and students have not yet been able to adapt optimally . This study examines the integration of the Cambridge Curriculum at SMA ABBS Surakarta, focusing on planning, implementation, evaluation, as well as supporting and inhibiting factors. Employing a qualitative field research design with a phenomenological approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation. The research subjects included the principal, vice principal for curriculum, teachers, and students. The findings reveal that successful implementation of the Cambridge Curriculum in this Islamic school is supported by three main pillars. First, the readiness of human resources, built through tiered training programs and international certification, with teachers required to have at least CEFR B2 English competency. Second, the adoption of innovative learning methods, particularly student-centered learning, practical activities, and authentic assessments that align with Cambridge International standards. Third, adequate infrastructure that meets international benchmarks, thereby facilitating effective curriculum delivery. The novelty of this study lies in its focus on the application of the Cambridge Curriculum within an Islamic school context, which remains relatively rare in Indonesia. The research contributes to the broader discourse on curriculum globalization by highlighting how Islamic schools can integrate international standards while maintaining their religious identity. Practically, the study implies the need to strengthen teacher competencies, sustain infrastructure support, and develop adaptive learning strategies to ensure broader success in similar institutions.

Theoretical framework: In the era of 21st-century education, the development of students' 4C skills—Communication, Collaboration, Critical Thinking, and Creativity—is a fundamental necessity. Within this framework, Project-Based Learning (PjBL) emerges as a powerful pedagogical model that fosters student engagement, innovation, and critical reasoning through meaningful projects. Literature Review: Project-based learning fosters critical thinking and academic achievement, especially in Islamic education, by promoting active learning aligned with SDGs to support holistic, student-centred, and values-based education. Methods: Grounded in constructivist learning theory, this study adopts a mixed-methods approach, combining qualitative and quantitative methods. The research design consists of Classroom Action Research (CAR) and Pre-Experimental Research using the One Group Pre-Test and post-test Design. The sample includes 18 fourth-grade students, selected through total sampling. Data collection techniques include observation for the qualitative phase and pre-test/post-test instruments for the quantitative phase. Results: The results reveal that the PjBL model significantly improves students’ critical reasoning skills. Furthermore, it effectively enhances learning achievement in PAI and BP subjects. The integration of Islamic values within student-centred projects not only enriches content understanding but also aligns the educational process with the values of the SDGs, promoting holistic, inclusive, and transformative learning. Implications: This study has important implications for educators and policymakers, highlighting the need for innovative instructional models that blend faith-based education with global education goals. Novelty: The novelty of this research lies in its focus on implementing PjBL within Islamic Education, framed through the lens of sustainable development. It offers a replicable model for primary-level instruction that supports both cognitive and character development in line with SDG aspirations.

Abstract

Purpose: This study examines the application of artificial intelligence (AI) in education, with an emphasis on personalized learning across K–12, higher education, and online learning, and evaluates both its benefits and implementation challenges. Methodology: The research uses a qualitative literature-based synthesis of empirical and conceptual studies on AI-enabled personalized learning. Evidence is compared across education levels and learning domains to identify (1) observed learning impacts (e.g., engagement and achievement) and (2) recurring adoption barriers (e.g., infrastructure readiness, equity, and governance). Results: The findings indicate that AI-supported personalized learning can improve learner engagement and motivation by delivering adaptive content and feedback. Reported outcomes include performance gains in adaptive learning implementations, such as an increase in average scores from 68.4 to 82.7. However, implementation obstacles remain substantial, including limited infrastructure, unequal access, insufficient educator training, data privacy risks, and institutional resistance to change. Several studies also highlight unintended effects such as learner over-reliance on technology and reduced teacher–student social interaction. Applications/Originality/Value: This study consolidates cross-level evidence on where AI personalization is most effective and where it is most fragile. It provides practical implications for policymakers and institutions: invest in infrastructure, deliver sustained teacher training, and enforce strict data protection governance to enable responsible adoption. The study argues for a balanced integration model that leverages AI’s adaptivity while preserving human-centered educational values.

Abstract

This study aims to examine in depth the various strategic roles of school principals in the context of Islamic schools, especially in improving the quality of educator performance and strengthening educational governance based on Islamic values. The method used in this study is a literature review, by examining various recent scientific journals in the period 2019–2024. The results of the study show that school principals have various important roles, namely as managers, innovators, communicators, academic supervisors, motivators, and role models. In their role as managers, school principals are responsible for teacher development planning, monitoring, and periodic evaluation of educator performance. As innovators, school principals encourage teachers to innovate in learning and be adaptive to new technologies and methods.The role of communicator is also important, where the principal is expected to build effective and assertive communication with teachers in order to foster trust and loyalty. In terms of academic supervision, the principal functions as a mentor in implementing effective and reflective learning. Internal challenges such as limited funds and teacher motivation, as well as the influence of foundation management, are obstacles that need to be overcome with collaborative solutions and strengthening synergy between the principal, teachers, and the foundation. Meanwhile, external challenges in the form of competition with public schools and the globalization of education require adaptive and innovative strategies. This study recommends the use of technology, the formation of a professional network of Islamic teachers, and reward and punishment-based evaluation as strategic approaches in improving the quality of Islamic education. With visionary and value-based leadership, the principal plays a central role in making Islamic schools superior and competitive institutions.

Abstract

Corruption challenges require anti-corruption education that cultivates integrity rather than merely promoting legal compliance. This study developed and evaluated an Islamic Business Ethics Education Module grounded in akhlāq al-muʿāmalah to strengthen integrity among mahasantri. Employing a Research and Development (R&D) approach guided by the ADDIE model with an embedded mixed-method design, the study comprised needs analysis, module development, expert validation, revision, implementation, and evaluation. The module was validated by nine experts and implemented with 48 students at Pondok Hajjah Nuriyah Shabran, Universitas Muhammadiyah Surakarta. Quantitative data were analyzed using Aiken’s V, descriptive statistics, and independent-samples t-tests, while qualitative data from interviews, observations, focus group discussions, and reflective journals were examined through thematic analysis. The findings indicate high content validity and significant improvements in students’ integrity awareness and ethical reasoning. More importantly, experiential learning enabled students to reinterpret fiqh al-muʿāmalah as a practical framework for accountability, transparency, and trustworthiness. The study proposes an Akhlāq al-Muʿāmalah-Based Integrity Education Model integrating Islamic jurisprudence, experiential learning, reflective moral reasoning, and critical consciousness to strengthen anti-corruption education in Islamic higher education.

Abstract

This community service program aims to enhance the competence of teachers at SMP Muhammadiyah in PCM Kartasura through socialization and training on the Teacher Driver program and Deep Learning approach. The main objectives of this program are to ensure that teachers gain knowledge, skills, and attitudes related to the concepts of Teacher Driver and Deep Learning. It is expected that teachers will apply innovative teaching approaches and improve the quality of education at Muhammadiyah schools. This program also seeks to strengthen educational leadership at the school level, given the limited access to Teacher Driver training for private schools and the lack of understanding about Deep Learning in the PCM Kartasura area. This initiative is driven by the importance of the Teacher Driver program in creating learning leaders capable of implementing the Merdeka Curriculum and addressing challenges in education quality. The program is implemented in several phases, starting with socialization and training, followed by teachers formulating action plans, which are then implemented at their respective schools. After implementation, monitoring and evaluation are conducted to assess the program's effectiveness. The outcomes of this program are expected to improve teachers' competence, values, and attitudes in managing learning and supporting educational innovation at Muhammadiyah schools in PCM Kartasura. The results will be documented in an evaluation report and scientific publications, contributing to the development of education in the region.

Abstract

Kuttab education, as a traditional Islamic educational institution that has played an important role in educating generations of Muslims since medieval times, is now facing great challenges in the digital era. Advances in technology and changes in people's lifestyles have had a significant impact on the way of learning and teaching. This study aims to explore the revitalization efforts of Kuttab education in the face of digital transformation, focusing on curriculum adaptation, information technology utilization, and community involvement in the education process. The method used in this research is a qualitative approach with literature studies, interviews with educational practitioners, as well as direct observation in several Kuttab institutions that have begun to integrate digital technology in their learning process. The results showed that the revitalization of Kuttab in the digital era does not only involve updating teaching materials, but also the need to develop digital competencies for teachers and students. The use of digital learning platforms, Quran-based applications, and distance learning are some of the innovations that support the effectiveness of Kuttab education in this era. This study concludes that Kuttab education that integrates digital technology has great potential to expand access to quality Islamic religious education, while maintaining the traditional values that characterize Kuttab education.
