Abstract

This study was conducted to evaluate the learning program for students with autism spectrum disorders in Special Needs Schools (SLB) in North Sulawesi Province. The research context is based on the increasing number of children with autism, limited special education services, and the need for adaptive, individualized, and independence-oriented learning models. The research objectives include evaluating the learning program, identifying implementation barriers, and mapping supporting factors in the implementation of learning at the Hizkia Manado Special Needs School for Autism, Efatah Bitung Special Needs School, and Paulus Tomohon Special Needs School. The study used a descriptive qualitative approach through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation analysis, and involved policymakers, principals, teachers, and parents. The results showed that the learning program has attempted to adhere to the principles of individualization through the IEP, the use of methods such as ABA, TEACCH, and PECS, and the inclusion of supportive therapy. However, implementation is still hampered by the limited number of teachers with special education competencies, the lack of autism-friendly infrastructure, unequal access to therapy services, and low parental involvement. On the other hand, policy support, cross-sector collaboration, and teacher and school commitment are significant supporting factors. The study concluded that improving the quality of learning requires strengthening human resources, developing learning infrastructure tailored to the needs of children with autism, and integrating education and health services. Consequently, local governments and schools need to develop holistic and sustainable service designs to ensure optimal academic, social, and independence development for students with autism.

Abstract

This study analyzes the factors influencing the use of digital platforms in teaching by high school teachers in Tomohon City, focusing on two main variables: performance expectations and effort expectations on usage behavior. The research background rests on the digital transformation process in education and the Independent Curriculum policy, which encourages the use of the Merdeka Mengajar Platform as a national digital learning ecosystem. The research method used a quantitative approach with Partial Least Squares (PLS) analysis to examine the relationships between variables. The sample consisted of high school teachers in Tomohon City who were both active and passive users of digital learning platforms. The results showed that performance expectations significantly influenced usage intentions and behavior, indicating that the perceived usefulness of the platform was the primary driver of its utilization. Effort expectations also significantly influenced usage intentions, but their influence on usage behavior was relatively lower than that of performance expectations. These findings emphasize the importance of designing systems that are easy to use while simultaneously providing tangible performance-added value for teachers. In conclusion, the successful implementation of digital platforms in high schools is strongly influenced by teachers' perceptions of usability and ease of use. Practical implications of this study emphasize the need for strengthened training, simplified digital administrative burdens, and improved technical support to optimize platform utilization.

Abstract

Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a prevalent and treatable condition with substantial impacts on men’s quality of life, mental health, and intimate relationships. Despite its clinical importance, ED education at the primary healthcare level remains limited, particularly in sociocultural contexts where sexual health is considered taboo. This study explores healthcare workers’ competence in delivering ED education, identifies supporting and inhibiting factors, and formulates educational management strategies to strengthen ED education at a single primary healthcare center in Manado City, Indonesia. A qualitative case study design was employed. Data were collected from 46 healthcare workers through in-depth interviews, focus group discussions, observations of service delivery, and review of relevant internal documents. Data were analyzed using an interactive approach comprising data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing (Miles et al., 2014). The findings reveal that healthcare workers’ competence ranges from low to moderate. While biomedical knowledge of ED is generally present, gaps persist in communication skills, empathy, counseling techniques, and culturally sensitive engagement. ED education is often brief, opportunistic, and non-standardized, limiting patient understanding and behavior change. Supporting factors include availability of private counseling space, leadership support, interprofessional collaboration, culturally appropriate educational media, and partner involvement. Inhibiting factors include time constraints, psychological discomfort among healthcare workers, social stigma, limited structured training, and the absence of standardized operating procedures (SOPs) for ED education. The study proposes a competency-based, continuous educational management strategy integrating planning, implementation, and evaluation (POAC), supported by coaching, supervision, and culturally responsive patient education practices. These findings contribute to educational management in healthcare by demonstrating how organizational systems and competence development can strengthen sensitive health education at the primary care level.

Abstract

This study examines the planning, implementation, and evaluation of the Junior High School (SMP) Education Roadmap Policy in Maybrat Regency an Indonesian region categorized as 3T (frontier, outermost, underdeveloped). The study responds to persistent disparities in educational access and quality that are strongly shaped by geographic isolation, uneven teacher distribution, infrastructure gaps, and limited digital readiness. Using a qualitative multi-case design, data were collected through in-depth interviews with key actors (regional head, education office leadership, school principals, teachers, and community representatives), observations, and document analysis across SMP settings. Evidence indicates that the policy planning process has been initiated in a participatory manner and anchored in the region’s medium-term development direction; however, it remains insufficiently integrated with broader regional planning documents and is weakened by data validity constraints arising from uneven data synchronization practices. Implementation has shown tangible governmental commitment through infrastructure development, teacher contracting, local BOS strengthening, scholarships, and teacher training; nevertheless, implementation performance is constrained by structural and managerial challenges particularly shortages of subject teachers, transportation barriers, low parental participation, limited ICT facilities, and low digital literacy. Evaluation practices tend to emphasize administrative reporting rather than outcome-based learning improvements; although national instruments such as the Education Report Card (Rapor Pendidikan) have begun to be used, they are not yet fully integrated into iterative policy refinement. The findings suggest that strengthening evidence-based planning, ensuring consistent implementation mechanisms, improving inter-agency coordination, and adopting comprehensive outcome-oriented evaluation are critical for transforming the roadmap into an effective regional education governance instrument in 3T settings.

Abstract

Patient and family education is a cornerstone of quality healthcare, particularly in critical care areas where clinical uncertainty, high-risk decisions, and emotional distress converge. Despite its recognized importance, patient education in intensive care settings often remains inconsistent due to time pressure, heavy workloads, communication barriers, and limited standardized tools. This qualitative case study analyzes how training management can improve patient education practices in a critical care environment at a central general hospital in Manado, Indonesia. The study examines (1) training planning and needs assessment, (2) training implementation strategies, (3) training evaluation, and (4) contextual factors influencing success. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, FGDs, observation, and document review, and analyzed using an interactive approach supported by triangulation. Findings indicate that patient education quality was initially suboptimal, reflected in frequent refusal of medical procedures (approximately 50 cases per month), high family anxiety (around 80%), and inconsistent use of educational media. Key factors shaping patient education included nurses’ workload and time constraints, cultural and literacy barriers among families, variability in communication competence, and uneven availability and enforcement of SOPs and supporting media. A Training Needs Analysis (TNA) identified gaps across six key competency domains and informed the development of ten training modules. Training was delivered through simulation, role play, and bedside coaching, improving staff compliance with patient education SOPs from 38% to 70%. Evaluation using the Kirkpatrick and CIPP models suggested that training was relevant and impactful, although some outcome targets remained unmet. Recommendations include digitalizing education media, strengthening SOP implementation, embedding training into performance appraisal systems, and expanding training across units.

Abstract

This study describes and analyzes the construction of transformational leadership among high school (SMA) principals in Raja Ampat Regency and identifies determinant factors shaping that construction within an archipelagic and remote-area setting. The research employs a qualitative case study design and applies grounded-theory procedures to generate an empirically grounded leadership construction model. Data were gathered through in-depth interviews, observation, and document analysis, involving principals as main informants and teachers as supporting informants. Findings show that transformational leadership is constructed through eight interrelated dimensions manifested in daily leadership practices: (1) work direction, (2) communication of vision and mission, (3) trust building, (4) creativity development, (5) motivation provision, (6) role modeling, (7) optimism cultivation, and (8) instilling pride in the school. The construction of transformational leadership is influenced by two groups of determinant factors: internal factors (personal values, motivation, experience, competence, and self-reflection) and external factors (training, teacher support, professional interactions, educational policy, and the socio-cultural context of the archipelago). The study contributes a contextual leadership construction model relevant for remote and island-based education systems and offers implications for principal capacity development and policies to improve educational quality in geographically constrained regions.

Abstract

Micro teaching assessment plays a strategic role in preparing prospective teachers to develop professional teaching competencies. However, in many teacher education institutions, the assessment process is still conducted manually, inconsistently, and without adequate integration into institutional quality assurance systems. These limitations reduce the effectiveness of assessment as a tool for educational management and continuous improvement. This study aims to develop and evaluate a Micro Teaching Assessment Information System based on the PPEPP cycle (Planning, Implementation, Evaluation, Control, and Improvement) to support more systematic, transparent, and accountable assessment management. The research employed a Research and Development (R&D) approach consisting of needs analysis, system design, prototype development, expert validation, field testing, and product revision. Data were collected through observations, interviews, questionnaires, and system usability testing, and were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics as well as thematic analysis. The results indicate that the developed system achieved high levels of feasibility and usability, improved assessment efficiency, standardized evaluation procedures, enhanced the quality of feedback, and enabled real-time monitoring of student performance. The study concludes that the PPEPP-based assessment information system provides an effective technological solution for strengthening micro teaching management, supporting data-driven decision-making, and promoting sustainable quality improvement in teacher education.
