Abstract

Research on transformational leadership in education still leaves several gaps, particularly regarding its effectiveness when integrated into dormitory-based programs that adopt a flexible curriculum combined with the Merdeka Belajar Kampus Merdeka (MBKM) framework. The challenge lies in how such a combination can systematically foster both hard and soft skills of university students in a holistic learning environment. This study aims to analyze the impact of transformational leadership combined with the MBKM Free Form-integrated dormitory program on student competency development. Using a quantitative descriptive design based on percentage analysis, the study involved 109 students as research subjects and employed a structured closed-ended questionnaire for data collection. The findings reveal that the program substantially enhances student competencies through role modeling, enthusiasm, encouragement of creativity, and opportunities for practice. Among the dimensions of transformational leadership, idealized influence emerged as the most influential factor, followed by inspirational motivation and intellectual stimulation, while individualized consideration showed relatively lower effectiveness. The study concludes that the integration of transformational leadership with MBKM Free Form dormitory programs provides a strategic pathway for developing students’ holistic competencies. The implications suggest that higher education institutions may adopt similar approaches to design effective programs that cultivate both academic and personal growth, thereby preparing students for dynamic future challenges.

Abstract

Bullying is a problem that frequently occurs in school environments and has negative impacts on students’ psychological, social, and academic development. This condition highlights the importance of strengthening a positive school culture as a preventive effort to create a safe and comfortable learning environment. This activity was a community service program aimed at increasing students’ knowledge, understanding, and awareness of the forms, impacts, and prevention strategies of bullying through the reinforcement of positive culture at SMP Negeri 1 Wonosari, Boalemo Regency. The community service methods included interactive lectures, discussions, and educational video screenings involving 49 junior high school students as participants. The evaluation was conducted using simple indicators, including observation of participant engagement, question-and-answer sessions, and individual summary assignments to assess improvements in understanding. The results showed that approximately 85% of participants were actively involved in discussions, 78% of students were able to clearly explain bullying concepts and prevention strategies, and a positive change in students’ attitudes toward rejecting bullying behavior was observed. Overall, this community service activity plays an important role in enhancing students’ awareness and participation in building a safe, inclusive, and positive school culture as a strategic approach to bullying prevention.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan penguatan karakter religius, karakter bertanggung jawab, dan karakter kemandirian siswa pada sekolah berasrama di MAN Insan Cendekia Gorontalo. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan jenis studi kasus. Teknik pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui wawancara, observasi, dan dokumentasi, dengan analisis data melalui tahapan reduksi data, penyajian data, dan penarikan kesimpulan. Keabsahan data diuji menggunakan teknik triangulasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa: (1) penguatan karakter religius siswa dibentuk melalui serangkaian kegiatan rutin keagamaan yang terstruktur, yaitu shalat berjamaah, qultum dalam bahasa Inggris dan Arab, qiro'ah qabla naum (membaca Al-Qur'an sebelum tidur), dan program tahfidz Al-Qur'an; (2) penguatan karakter bertanggung jawab dibangun melalui mekanisme piket kebersihan asrama dan keterlibatan dalam tugas kolektif; serta (3) penguatan karakter kemandirian dikembangkan melalui pembiasaan aktivitas keseharian di asrama, seperti mengurus kebutuhan pribadi dan mengikuti jadwal terprogram. Hubungan antara kegiatan asrama dan pembentukan karakter ini bersifat sangat kuat dan sistematis, di mana lingkungan asrama yang terstruktur berhasil menciptakan proses transformasi karakter dari tahap pembiasaan hingga menjadi nilai internal. Implikasi dari penelitian ini menekankan pentingnya desain lingkungan pendidikan yang terintegrasi dan berkelanjutan dalam membentuk karakter siswa secara holistik. Temuan ini dapat menjadi pertimbangan bagi pengelola sekolah berasrama lain dalam merancang program penguatan karakter yang efektif.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the implementation of the New Culture Integration Process (NCIP) model in elementary schools resulting from regrouping in Gorontalo, focusing on four stages of integration: pre-merger, during-merger, post-merger, and cultural integration. A descriptive quantitative approach was employed involving all elementary schools resulting from regrouping in Gorontalo as the population. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using descriptive statistics with five-category interval criteria. The findings reveal a consistent pattern of improvement across all implementation stages. The pre-merger stage achieved a score of 4.13 (high category) as an initial foundation, although weaknesses were identified in feasibility study (4.03) and benchmarking (3.84) indicators. The during-merger stage increased significantly by 0.15 points to 4.28 (very high category), with main strengths in resource management and leadership. The post-merger stage reached 4.33 (very high category), demonstrating organizational resilience with organizational values and leadership roles as primary contributors. The cultural integration stage maintained a score of 4.33 (very high category), indicating a plateau of excellence where integration quality stabilizes at an optimal level, characterized by sustained commitment, exemplary leadership, multi-level trust, strong togetherness, and efficiency in building communication. These findings validate the NCIP model design that each stage builds foundations for subsequent stages, with effective leadership as a key success factor. Recommendations include strengthening analytical capacity in pre-merger planning, developing sustainable leadership programs, and strategies for embedding culture into daily activities. Future studies may explore the longitudinal dynamics of cultural integration and develop early detection instruments for potential inefficiencies in merger planning.

Abstract

Schools with complete facilities and those with limited resources face distinct challenges in implementing pedagogical leadership, thereby requiring adaptive and context-sensitive strategies. This study aims to analyze the principal’s pedagogical leadership in: (1) developing teachers’ pedagogical competence, (2) improving teachers’ professional competence, and (3) building a culture of teacher learning. The research was conducted at SMP Negeri 1 Banggai and SMP Negeri Satap Tolokibit using a descriptive qualitative approach. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation and analyzed using a comparative analysis model. The findings reveal that pedagogical leadership in both schools contributes to strengthening teachers’ confidence in managing learning, encouraging greater reflectiveness, and fostering openness to instructional improvement. Although the principals in both schools share similar orientations and goals, their leadership is enacted through different strategies shaped by each school’s context. In addition, principal leadership plays a strategic role in enhancing teachers’ professional competence by reinforcing motivation, supporting contextual continuing professional development, and promoting collective learning. The study further shows that the principals’ pedagogical leadership successfully cultivates a culture of teacher learning through different yet complementary strategies aligned with the characteristics and conditions of each school. These findings underscore that effective pedagogical leadership is not uniform in practice but must be contextually adapted to strengthen teacher competence and sustain a culture of professional learning across diverse school settings.

Abstract

This study is motivated by the suboptimal use of public aspirations in decision-making processes within the Regional House of Representatives (DPRD), particularly in relation to weak management, documentation, follow-up mechanisms, and alignment with regional development priorities. This study aims to analyze the collection of public aspirations, their institutional processing within the DPRD, and their utilization in decision-making in the DPRD of North Bolaang Mongondow Regency. A qualitative approach with a case study design was employed. Research informants were selected purposively and consisted of the DPRD chairperson, commission leaders, DPRD secretariat staff, and community leaders. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation studies, and were analyzed using the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña through data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that public aspirations are collected through recess activities, working visits, audiences, public hearings (RDP), and Musrenbang, with recess serving as the dominant mechanism. The processing of aspirations involves recording, classification, verification, commission-level discussions, and the preparation of policy recommendations. Public aspirations are then utilized in the formulation of development programs, budgeting, policy monitoring, and public service evaluation. However, their effective use continues to face several obstacles, including weak system digitalization, limited documentation, low inclusive public participation, and constrained regional budgets. The study concludes that the effectiveness of public aspiration utilization is strongly influenced by the institutional capacity of the DPRD to manage, prioritize, and follow up on public inputs. The implications of this study emphasize the need to develop an e-aspiration system, improve transparency in aspiration follow-up, and strengthen public participation to support participatory, responsive, and accountable regional governance.
