Abstract

ABSTRACT This study aims to describe and analyze the implementation of the transformational leadership style by the principal in improving teachers’ work motivation at UPT SDN Kedungmakam, Jatirogo District. As the main pillar of education, teachers require strong motivation to face the challenges of the teaching and learning process at the elementary school level. The main issue examined in this study is how the dimensions of transformational leadership are implemented and how they influence teachers’ work motivation. This research employed a qualitative approach using a descriptive method. The findings reveal that through role modeling (idealized influence), inspirational motivation, support for creativity (intellectual stimulation), and individualized consideration, the principal has successfully created a conducive working environment. The implementation of these transformational leadership dimensions has contributed to increasing teachers’ enthusiasm, commitment, and responsibility in carrying out their professional duties. The study concludes that transformational leadership is a key factor that significantly enhances both the intrinsic and extrinsic motivation of teachers in performing their professional responsibilities. Therefore, the effective implementation of transformational leadership by school principals plays an important role in improving teacher performance and supporting the achievement of educational goals.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the role of principals’ transformational leadership in conflict management to improve teacher performance through a multicase study conducted at SDN Grati I and SDN Ranuklindungan II, Grati District, Pasuruan Regency. This study is motivated by low teacher performance influenced by horizontal and vertical conflicts, high administrative workloads, and low work motivation. Conflicts that are not managed effectively tend to be dysfunctional; however, through transformational leadership characterized by the dimensions of idealized influence, inspirational motivation, intellectual stimulation, and individualized consideration, conflicts can be managed constructively. This research employed a qualitative approach with a multisite case study design. Data were collected through participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and document analysis. The findings indicate that transformational leadership is effective in managing conflicts through collaboration and compromise strategies, thereby creating a conducive work climate, enhancing work motivation, promoting instructional innovation, and improving teacher performance. Supporting factors include a collaborative culture and policy support, while inhibiting factors consist of budget limitations and resistance to change. The resulting conflict management model is adaptive to the school context.

Abstract

Educational challenges in the 21st century have become increasingly complex in line with the rapid development of technology and artificial intelligence, requiring educational institutions to prepare graduates who are not only proficient in technical skills but also possess strong character and higher-order thinking competencies. Vocational High Schools (Sekolah Menengah Kejuruan/SMK) as vocational education institutions are required to integrate 21st-century character values, including critical thinking, creativity, communication, and collaboration (4C), into the learning process. This study aims to examine the implementation of the integration of 4C character values through the application of the deep learning method in Civic Education (Pendidikan Kewarganegaraan/PKn) learning at SMKN 2 Sukorejo, as well as to identify the supporting and inhibiting factors in its implementation. This research employed a qualitative approach with a descriptive design. Data were collected through observations, interviews, and documentation. The results indicate that the application of the deep learning method in Civic Education learning is able to facilitate students in critically analyzing civic issues, fostering creativity in formulating solutions, enhancing communication skills, and strengthening collaboration through contextual and collaborative learning. Supporting factors include teacher readiness, a conducive school climate, and the relevance of learning materials, while the constraints encountered include limited instructional time and differences in students’ abilities. This study confirms that the deep learning method has the potential to serve as a strategic approach to strengthening 21st-century character development among vocational high school students.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the differences in leadership styles and performance between definitive school principals and Acting (PLT) principals in public schools in Sukorejo District, Pasuruan Regency. The main focus of this research is to identify how the difference in leadership status affects decision-making, management stability, and the effectiveness of school program management. Theoretically, this research is based on transformational and instructional leadership concepts, which are believed to play an essential role in improving the quality of learning and student achievement. Based on the qualitative data analysis obtained from interviews and observations, it was found that definitive school principals have a more stable and consistent leadership style and are more flexible in planning long-term programs. On the other hand, Acting principals face limitations in authority and tenure, which affects their ability to make strategic decisions. These findings indicate that the stability of a definitive principal’s leadership is directly related to successful management and consistent educational outcomes in schools. This research is expected to contribute to a deeper understanding of the differences in principal status and its impact on the effectiveness of school management.

Abstract

Early Childhood Education (ECE) serves as a fundamental foundation for the development of children's character, cognitive abilities, socio-emotional skills, and learning readiness. To provide high-quality ECE services, schools are required not only to excel in the learning process but also to manage their assets effectively and sustainably. School asset management constitutes an essential component of educational quality management, as it supports all educational services and learning activities. This study aims to analyze school asset management planning, identify the factors influencing its implementation, and describe its impact on improving school quality at TKN Pembina Bugul Kidul and TK Al-Kautsar in Pasuruan City. The research employed a qualitative approach using a case study method. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with school principals and teachers, direct observations of school asset utilization, and document analysis of asset planning and inventory records. Data analysis was conducted through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing, while data validity was ensured through source and methodological triangulation. The findings indicate that asset management planning in both schools has been developed based on instructional needs and student services and aligned with the School Work Plan (RKS) and the School Activity and Budget Plan (RKAS). Nevertheless, several assets have not yet been utilized optimally. Factors such as principal leadership, budget availability, human resource competencies, inventory management systems, and community involvement significantly influence the effectiveness of school asset management. Well-managed school assets have been shown to positively contribute to improved learning quality, a more conducive school environment, efficient resource utilization, and increased public trust in educational institutions.

Abstract

Teacher performance is a crucial factor in determining the success of educational delivery. The increasing demand for teacher professionalism in the era of digital transformation requires teachers to possess strong work motivation and the ability to adopt digital innovations in the teaching and learning process. However, evidence from the field indicates that teachers' levels of motivation and utilization of digital innovation vary considerably, potentially affecting their performance. This study aims to examine the effect of work motivation on teacher performance, the effect of digital innovation on teacher performance, and the simultaneous effect of work motivation and digital innovation on the performance of elementary school teachers in Pasrepan District. This study employed a quantitative approach using an ex post facto research design. The study population consisted of all 70 elementary school teachers in Pasrepan District. A saturated sampling technique was applied, whereby the entire population was included as research respondents. Data were collected using closed-ended questionnaires based on a Likert scale, which had been tested for validity and reliability. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, classical assumption tests, multiple linear regression analysis, t-tests, F-tests, and the coefficient of determination (R²) with the assistance of SPSS software. The findings indicate that: (1) work motivation has a positive and significant effect on teacher performance (t = 7.599, p < 0.001); (2) digital innovation does not have a significant partial effect on teacher performance (t = 0.270, p = 0.788); and (3) work motivation and digital innovation simultaneously have a positive and significant effect on teacher performance (F = 202.718, p < 0.001). The coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.858 indicates that 85.8% of the variance in teacher performance can be explained by work motivation and digital innovation, while the remaining 14.2% is attributable to other factors not examined in this study. The study concludes that work motivation is the dominant factor influencing the performance of elementary school teachers in Pasrepan District. In contrast, digital innovation does not have a significant partial effect on teacher performance. Therefore, efforts to improve teacher performance should prioritize strengthening teachers' work motivation while simultaneously enhancing their digital competencies and providing adequate technological infrastructure to maximize the benefits of digital innovation for teaching quality and teacher performance.

Abstract

Teacher professionalism is a key determinant of the quality of early childhood education services. Enhancing teacher professionalism depends not only on individual competencies but also on the human resource management (HRM) strategies implemented by educational institutions. This study aims to analyze HRM strategies for improving teacher professionalism, identify the factors influencing their implementation, and develop a strategic HRM model for kindergarten institutions. A qualitative approach with a multisite research design was employed at PGRI 4 Kindergarten Bangil and Muslimat NU 10 Khodijah Kindergarten Bangil. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and document analysis. The data were analyzed using the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña, which includes data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing through cross-site analysis. The findings reveal that HRM strategies are implemented through five major stages: teacher workforce planning, competency-based recruitment, continuous professional development, performance supervision and evaluation, and the provision of motivation and rewards. These strategies have contributed to improving teachers' pedagogical, professional, social, and personal competencies. Supporting factors include effective school leadership, a collaborative organizational culture, teachers' commitment, and support from the governing organization. Conversely, limited financial resources, unequal access to professional training opportunities, and excessive administrative workloads remain significant barriers. This study proposes a Sustainable Integrative Human Resource Management Strategy Model that integrates workforce planning, competency development, academic supervision, performance evaluation, and a reward system into a continuous cycle for enhancing kindergarten teachers' professionalism.
