Abstract

This study investigates the impact of Islamic education on promoting environmental awareness and sustainable economic behavior among youth. As environmental issues continue to pose significant global challenges, fostering eco-conscious behavior among the younger generation is essential for ensuring long-term sustainability. Islamic education, with its emphasis on ethical responsibility, stewardship, and accountability as outlined in the Quran and Hadith, provides a unique framework for shaping pro-environmental attitudes and behaviors. This experimental study compares two groups of students: the treatment group exposed to green-Islamic content and the control group receiving general civic education. The research measures students' environmental awareness, knowledge of sustainability, and behavior before and after the intervention, using pre-test and post-test questionnaires, as well as qualitative interviews. The results indicate that the treatment group exhibited a significantly greater improvement in environmental awareness and sustainable behavior compared to the control group. These findings suggest that Islamic education, by integrating religious and ethical principles into environmental education, can effectively encourage sustainable behaviors such as resource conservation, waste management, and ethical consumption. The study highlights the importance of incorporating Islamic values into educational curricula as a means to foster a more environmentally responsible generation. Additionally, the research emphasizes the need for further studies to explore the long-term effects of eco-conscious Islamic education across different cultural and educational contexts. The results of this study contribute to the growing body of knowledge on the role of religious education in addressing global environmental challenges and promoting sustainable development.

Abstract

This community service activity aims to improve the understanding and awareness of students at SMP Negeri 7 Gorontalo regarding the wise use of social media by strengthening their digital literacy, communication ethics, digital security, personal data protection, and ability to verify information. The program was implemented using a participatory approach, beginning with needs assessment, the development of educational materials, interactive workshops, group discussions, case studies, Q&A sessions, and group reflection. Evaluation was conducted qualitatively through observation of student participation, documentation of activities, and feedback gathered throughout the educational process. The results of the activity showed an increase in participants’ awareness of the importance of digital communication ethics, their ability to recognize the risks of spreading unverified information, their understanding of personal data protection, and their commitment to using social media responsibly in their daily lives. Reflections on the activity also revealed that active participant engagement and school support play a crucial role in building a positive and sustainable digital culture. This program provides a participatory digital literacy education model that can be replicated in other educational institutions as a strategy for strengthening students’ digital character in the era of digital transformation.

Abstract

Thesis writing is a crucial academic milestone that students must complete as a requirement for earning a bachelor's degree. However, this process frequently poses significant challenges due to academic and psychological obstacles that affect students' motivation and academic progress. This study aims to identify the challenges faced by senior students and the strategies they employ to maintain academic resilience during the thesis writing process. A qualitative approach with a descriptive research design was adopted, conducted within the History Education Program at the Faculty of Social Sciences, Gorontalo State University. Informants were selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected via observation and interviews, then analyzed using an interactive analysis model. Findings reveal that students encounter difficulties in selecting research topics, understanding methodology, accessing scholarly references, and managing psychological stress. Strategies employed include effective time management, active consultation with academic advisors, seeking social support, and sustaining self-motivation. These findings underscore the importance of strengthening academic resilience to support successful thesis completion.
