Abstract

Integrating Emotional Intelligence (EI) into educational practices has gained significant attention due to its potential to enhance student outcomes in the 21st-century classroom. This study aims to explore the role of EI in classroom dynamics, focusing on its impact on classroom management, student-teacher relationships, and overall academic and emotional development. Using a qualitative research approach, the study employed case studies and in-depth interviews with teachers and students across multiple schools. Data were analyzed using thematic analysis to identify patterns and themes related to EI's application in the classroom. The findings revealed that teachers who effectively applied EI strategies created more supportive, inclusive environments, improving student engagement, academic performance, and stronger emotional regulation. Students in these classrooms also demonstrated improved social-emotional skills, such as empathy and conflict resolution, contributing to more positive peer interactions. However, challenges such as a lack of training and resources were identified, which hindered the consistent implementation of EI practices. The study concludes that EI is critical in fostering positive learning environments and should be integrated into teacher training and curricula. The research contributes to the growing body of knowledge on EI in education and advocates for systemic changes to ensure its effective application across schools.

Abstract

Integrating Virtual Reality (VR) in education presents a promising opportunity to enhance immersive learning and deepen student understanding of complex subjects. Despite its potential, the widespread adoption of VR in classrooms remains limited due to challenges such as high costs, inadequate teacher training, and the difficulty in aligning VR with existing curricula. This study aims to explore the impact of VR on student engagement, conceptual understanding, and learning outcomes across diverse educational settings. A qualitative approach was employed, involving semi-structured interviews, participant observations, and document analysis with students, teachers, and curriculum developers at two secondary schools and one university in Jakarta, Indonesia. The findings reveal that VR significantly enhances student engagement, promotes deeper conceptual understanding, and fosters emotional connections to learning materials. However, challenges related to technological infrastructure, teacher readiness, and curriculum integration were also identified. The study concludes that while VR has substantial educational benefits, its successful implementation requires overcoming these barriers through targeted training, improved content design, and a more systematic approach to curriculum integration. This research contributes to the growing knowledge of educational technologies, offering practical insights into how VR can effectively transform teaching and learning practices.

Abstract

The rapid growth of EdTech startups and integration into educational practices has led to hybrid classrooms combining traditional face-to-face teaching with digital tools. This transformation redefines the roles of teachers and learners, prompting a shift toward more flexible, personalized learning environments. This study explores the impact of EdTech startups on traditional learning models and how hybrid classrooms are reshaping these roles. Using a qualitative research methodology, data was collected through semi-structured interviews, participant observations, and document analysis in schools and EdTech hubs in Jakarta, Indonesia. The findings reveal that hybrid classrooms provide increased learner autonomy, personalized learning, and collaboration opportunities. However, they also highlight challenges such as digital inequities, teacher adaptation to new roles, and the need for ongoing professional development. Teachers are evolving into facilitators rather than traditional knowledge transmitters, yet they struggle with integrating new technologies effectively. The study concludes that EdTech tools while promising, require careful integration with human-centered teaching practices to ensure inclusivity and engagement. The research contributes to understanding how hybrid learning environments can be optimized to benefit both teachers and students. It offers educators and policymakers insights into the complexities of EdTech adoption in education.
