Abstract

​Objective: This study aims to develop a participatory and data-based model for managing basic education facilities and infrastructure to improve the quality of education services in the archipelago. The focus of the research is directed at the optimization strategy of BOS funds, the implementation of School-Based Management (SBM), and the use of data-based School Facilities Management System (SFMS). Methods: This research uses a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques through in-depth interviews, participatory observations, and documentation studies. The research informants consisted of principals, teachers, and committees in two elementary schools in Simeulue Regency, who were purposively selected. Data analysis was carried out through reduction, thematic presentation, and conclusion drawing, with triangulation validation of sources and methods. Results: The results of the study show that the planning and implementation of infrastructure management have been carried out in a participatory, adaptive, and data-based manner, with school principals playing a central role in coordination. The main challenges include limited BOS funds, technical personnel and digital literacy. From the field findings, an Integrative Model for Participatory Facilities and Infrastructure Management (ISPBD Model) was formed, which emphasizes collaboration, budget efficiency, and public accountability. Novelty: This research offers a new conceptual model that integrates the principles of SBM, BOS fund optimization, and data-driven facility management, which has not previously been developed in an integrated manner in the context of elementary schools in the Indonesian archipelago.​

Abstract

Inclusive education is a manifestation of the global commitment to education for all. Although mandated by various national regulations, the implementation of inclusive education remained stagnant due to multiple challenges. This study aimed to examine strategies adopted by the government in planning and ensuring the effectiveness of inclusive education in Pidie Regency. This study employed a qualitative approach involving data from the education data system (Dapodik) and key stakeholders from Balai Penjaminan Mutu Pendidikan (BPMP) Aceh, Dinas Pendidikan dan Kebudayaan Kabupaten Pidie (Disdikbud Pidie), SMPN 4 Sigli, and SDN 1 Lampoih Saka. The qualitative data were processed and analyzed using NVivo 15 to facilitate systematic coding, theme categorization, and identification of patterns related to the implementation of inclusive education. The study found that the main challenges in implementing inclusive education are the lack of indicators of success, limited human resources, limited literacy about inclusive education, the absence of clear regulations, lack of coordination, limited access to infrastructure, and budget constraints. These results indicated that inclusive education in Pidie regency remains stagnant due to weak policy support and unstructured practices. This pointed out the need to strengthen policies and regulations, enhance resources and facilities, and build sustainable capacity to ensure the effective and equitable implementation of inclusive education.

Abstract

The development of Society 5.0 requires junior high school teachers to have adequate digital literacy to support educational transformation in the 21st century. The main problem arises when teacher competencies and school management systems are not in line with the demands of Society 5.0. This study aims to analyze the challenges of digital literacy among junior high school teachers in the context of educational transformation in the Society 5.0 era, which hinders its implementation in schools. This research uses a descriptive qualitative approach conducted at SMP Negeri 2 Sigli and SMP Unggul YPPU Sigli. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and document analysis, with the research subjects consisting of teachers and principals. The findings show that the challenges of teacher digital literacy include weak school policies, limited teacher competencies, and inadequate infrastructure. Improving digital literacy requires synergy between teacher competencies, visionary leadership, and a supportive policy framework. Recommendations include developing systematic programs, implementing continuous training, providing adequate infrastructure, and conducting indicator-based evaluations to build a digital learning ecosystem aligned with the demands of Society 5.0.

Abstract

Objective: This study aimed to examine educational management strategies based on local wisdom in disadvantaged, frontier, and outermost (3T) areas, particularly in Simeulue Regency. The main focus is on how local values can be systematically integrated into education management to improve the quality and relevance of education in remote areas. Methods: This study used a qualitative approach based on conceptual literature studies. Data were collected through a search of scientific literature, government policies, and previous research results relevant to the topic of local wisdom and education management in the 3T region. The analysis was carried out descriptively and critically to compile a synthesis of education management models based on local cultural values. Results: The results of the study show that education in 3T areas faces infrastructure constraints, limited teachers, and low community participation. However, there is great potential in local wisdom, such as smong culture, mutual cooperation, and nandong, that can be integrated into the education management system. The synthesis produced a conceptual model based on participation, local values, and curriculum contextualization. Novelty: The novelty of this study lies in the systematic mapping of local values particularly smong and nandong into a coherent strategic management framework that transforms cultural wisdom into an operational education model. This conceptual contribution provides a new perspective on how indigenous cultural systems can be institutionalized within educational management structures, offering theoretical and practical implications for sustainable education in 3T regions.
