Abstract

This study investigates the perspectives of teacher educators at SMP Putri Cahaya Medan regarding the integration of evidence-based teaching (EBT) into their classroom practices. Amid growing emphasis on utilizing research to enhance education, the gap between educational theory and practical implementation remains a critical concern. Using a mixed-methods approach, including interviews, surveys, and classroom observations, this research explores teacher educators’ attitudes, challenges, and strategies related to EBT. Findings indicate that while educators generally value research-informed practices, they face significant barriers such as time constraints, limited access to research, and conflicts between personal teaching philosophies and empirical findings. However, factors such as institutional support, collaborative learning environments, and contextual adaptation of research findings were identified as key enablers. The study concludes that systemic support and professional development are essential to empower teacher educators in effectively translating research evidence into meaningful teaching practices, thereby bridging the gap between research and classroom application.

Abstract

This qualitative study analyses the strategies used in translating idioms from Louisa May Alcott's novel Little Women into Indonesian Gadis-Gadis March and evaluates the degree of equivalence in the translation. Idioms, as an important element of linguistic and cultural richness, require appropriate strategies to ensure that the original message is conveyed accurately and naturally. Document analysis reveals five main strategies. The most dominant strategy is the use of idioms with similar meanings but different forms (39%), which indicates a priority on preserving meaning and emotional effect rather than adherence to the structure of the source language. The strategy of providing idioms with the same meaning and form (35%) was also used significantly, in an effort to maintain the authenticity of the text. In addition, paraphrasing was applied (22%), focusing on conveying meaning naturally and in accordance with the target cultural context. The strategies of omitting idioms (3%) and borrowing idioms (0%) were rarely used. The distribution of these findings suggests a dominant orientation towards dynamic equivalence, where the main focus of translation is the preservation of meaning, emotional nuance, and cultural impact, rather than literal translation. The results show that effective idiom translation in literary works depends on the selection of strategies that are sensitive to cultural context and capable of maintaining the naturalness of the target language. These findings make a significant contribution to the study of literary translation by clarifying the relationship between the choice of idiom translation strategies and the achievement of dynamic equivalence in fictional texts.

In the choral response, the interaction pattern between student-content was good. The last was teacher talks, the interaction pattern of student-teacher was enough. Some factors influenced classroom interaction patterns such as the result from the in-depth interview that were the linguistic ability level of English teacher candidates, ability to select interesting topics, ability to master the content, ability to manage the classroom, and lack of confidence. In a conclusion, classroom interaction patterns were at different levels influenced by some factors, monotonous and mostly similar patterns for all the English teacher candidates as happened in a conventional classroom.

Abstract

Penelitian ini menyelidiki peran kepemimpinan berbasis riset terhadap pengambilan keputusan strategis dan pengembangan kebijakan di Sekolah dan Perguruan Tinggi. Dalam lingkungan akademik kontemporer yang ditandai dengan perubahan teknologi yang cepat, tuntutan akuntabilitas, dan persaingan global, para pemimpin semakin dituntut untuk membuat keputusan yang berbasis bukti. Berlandaskan teori kepemimpinan berbasis bukti serta perspektif kepemimpinan, penelitian ini mengeksplorasi bagaimana para pemimpin institusi mengintegrasikan temuan riset, data institusional, dan bukti ilmiah ke dalam perencanaan strategis dan perumusan kebijakan. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan desain studi kasus yang melibatkan empat pemimpin pendidikan dari sekolah dan perguruan tinggi. Data dikumpulkan melalui wawancara mendalam dan analisis dokumen institusional. Data dianalisis menggunakan teknik analisis tematik berdasarkan model analisis interaktif yang dikemukakan oleh Miles dan Huberman yang meliputi reduksi data, penyajian data, serta penarikan kesimpulan. Temuan menunjukkan adanya hubungan positif yang signifikan antara perilaku kepemimpinan yang berorientasi pada riset dan kualitas keputusan strategis serta kebijakan. Pemimpin yang secara sistematis memanfaatkan bukti empiris menunjukkan transparansi, inovasi, dan keselarasan institusional yang lebih tinggi. Penelitian ini berkontribusi pada kajian kepemimpinan dengan mengusulkan kerangka praktis untuk memperkuat budaya riset dalam tata kelola pendidikan tinggi. Implikasi bagi pengembangan kepemimpinan akademik dan reformasi kebijakan institusional turut dibahas.

Abstract

Academic leadership has emerged as a pivotal factor in the advancement and efficacy of higher education institutions. Universities function as knowledge-centric entities and necessitate leadership that integrates leadership competencies, academic expertise, and a strategic institutional vision. This study examines the essential concepts and evolving paradigms of academic leadership within higher education. The discourse centers on four key aspects: the essence of leadership, the distinction between leadership and management, paradigms of academic leadership within universities, and the function of scientific leadership in applied linguistics. This essay employs a conceptual and analytical framework to examine pertinent international literature on leadership and management within higher education. This study employs a qualitative descriptive approach using a conceptual literature review, drawing on relevant international scholarly sources to analyze leadership practices in higher education. The results show that academic leadership goes beyond just being in charge of the office; it also includes intellectual impact, research guidance, and working together with other scholars. Modern universities are increasingly employing decentralized and collaborative management frameworks to address challenges such as globalization, digital transformation, and research competitiveness. In applied linguistics, for example, academic leadership is also very important for setting research objectives and encouraging new ideas in the field. Enhancing academic leadership necessitates that universities incorporate intellectual authority, collaborative governance, and strategic management techniques to foster the sustained advancement of institutions.
