Abstract

This study aims to analyse the effect of the contribution of tutoring institutions on student learning outcomes. The study used a quantitative approach with a correlational method. The research subjects consisted of 75 students in grades X and XI of high schools in Palu City who were selected using purposive sampling technique between two tutoring institutions, namely Ganesha Operation and Brain Academy Teachers’ Palu. The data analysis technique used was simple linear regression with the help of SPSS. The results showed an increase in students' scores after attending tutoring. At Ganesha Operation, the average student score increased from 79.64 to 91.80, while at Brain Academy Teachers’ the average student score increased from 83.40 to 90.64. However, the regression test results show that the contribution of tutoring institutions does not significantly affect student learning outcomes. The regression coefficient value at Ganesha Operation is 0.032 with a significance of 0.036 (>0.05), while at Brain Academy Teachers’ it is 0.889 with a significance of 0.480 (>0.05). Thus, it can be concluded that the existence of tutoring institutions still has a low contribution to improving student learning outcomes, especially in Geography subjects.

Abstract

The educational transformation marked by the integration of digital technology into the learning process and school governance requires principals to develop leadership models that are adaptive to the dynamics of the times without abandoning their foundation in spiritual values. Challenges in the technological era are not solely related to technical skills in operating digital devices, but also to the capacity to build a meaningful work culture, uphold integrity, and be oriented towards the quality of educational services. This research aims to develop and validate the Digital–Spiritual Leadership model for principals as a strategy to improve work engagement and teacher performance. The method applied is Research and Development (R&D) with stages of needs analysis, conceptual design, expert validation, limited trials, and comprehensive testing of the model's effectiveness. Data were obtained through questionnaires, in-depth interviews, and document reviews. Then, they were analyzed descriptively quantitatively with the help of tables and graphs to map changes in teacher engagement and performance indicators. The results show a significant increase in the dimensions of work enthusiasm, professional commitment, and active involvement in carrying out tasks after the model's implementation. In addition, the quality of lesson planning, innovation in pedagogical practices, and achievement of performance targets showed an increasing trend. The analysis of the discussion confirms that integrating digital competencies with strengthening spiritual values creates inspiring leadership that has a broad impact on the school system. Therefore, the resulting Digital–Spiritual Leadership model is deemed relevant and effective in strengthening work engagement and improving teacher performance in the context of educational transformation.

Abstract

Abstract Christian Religious Education (PAK) in elementary schools plays a crucial role in shaping students' understanding and Christian values. Moreover, PAK is not only about transferring knowledge but also fostering students' ability to think critically by responding to and applying Christian values. This study explores how the implementation of a project-based learning (PjBL) model can improve critical thinking skills in five fourth-grade students in PAK learning, focusing on identifying themes related to the fourth-grade material, lesson 12, "ME and MY ENVIRONMENT." This study also employed a qualitative action research method. The research design was a classroom action research (CAR) study, consisting of two cycles, each with two meetings. Furthermore, the instruments used were participatory observation during the implementation of project-based learning, in-depth analysis of project results (presentations, tests), and semi-structured interviews with several informants and documents. Thus, this study provides in-depth insights into how project-based learning can improve students' critical thinking skills, particularly in the context of Christian Religious Education at the elementary school level. Abstrak Pendidikan Agama Kristen (PAK) di Sekolah Dasar berperan penting dalam membentuk pemahaman dan nilai-nilai Kristiani pada siswa. Apalagi PAK bukan hanya tentang transfer pengetahuan tetapi juga menumbuhkan kemampuan siswa dalam berpikir, dengan merespons dan mengaplikasikan nilai-nilai Kristiani secara kritis. Penelitian ini mengeksplorasikan bagaimana penerapan model pembelajaran berbasis proyek (PjBL) dapat meningkatkan kemampuan berpikir kritis pada lima siswa kelas IV dalam pembelajaran PAK yang fokusnya pada identifikasi tema sesuai materi kelas IV pelajaran 12 tentang AKU dan LINGKUNGANKU. Dalam penelitian ini juga menggunakan metode penelitian tindakan dengan jenis penelitian kualitatif. Adapun desain penelitian ini adalah penelitian tindakan kelas (PTK) yang melalui dua siklus dengan masing masing siklus dua kali pertemuan. Selain itu instrumen dalam penelitian ini yaitu melalui observasi partisipatif selama penerapan pembelajaran berbasis proyek, analisis mendalam terhadap hasil proyek (presentasi, tes), wawancara semi-terstruktur dengan beberapa narasumber dan dokumen. Dengan demikian penelitian ini dapat memberikan wawasan secara mendalam terkait bagaimana pembelajaran berbasis proyek dapat meningkatkan kemampuan berpikir kritis siswa, khususnya dalam konteks Pendidikan Agama Kristen di tingkat sekolah dasar.
