Abstract

The increasing complexity of contemporary social and religious issues demands a reformation in how religious education is delivered in secondary schools. Traditional approaches often emphasize rote memorization and doctrinal instruction, limiting students’ capacity for independent thought and engagement with pluralistic perspectives. This study aims to develop a pedagogical framework that integrates critical thinking into religious education through an inquiry-based learning (IBL) approach. Employing a qualitative design, the research was conducted in three secondary schools using classroom observations, semi-structured interviews with teachers and students, and document analysis. The findings reveal that incorporating IBL strategies fosters greater student autonomy, promotes respectful dialogue on diverse beliefs, and enhances cognitive engagement. Teachers reported increased student participation and a deeper understanding of ethical and spiritual concepts when lessons were structured around open-ended questions and real-life dilemmas. The study concludes that a well-structured IBL framework can effectively nurture critical thinking within religious education, making it more relevant and transformative for today's learners. It recommends integrating training modules for educators and adapting curricula to include inquiry-driven content.

Abstract

Forest-dependent communities face significant challenges due to environmental changes and economic pressures. Understanding how these communities diversify their livelihoods is crucial for enhancing their resilience and sustainability. This study aims to examine the strategies employed by forest-dependent communities to diversify their income sources and reduce reliance on forest resources. A qualitative case study approach was utilized, involving in-depth interviews and focus group discussions with community members in a selected forest-dependent area. The findings reveal that communities engage in various livelihood diversification strategies, including agriculture, handicrafts, and eco-tourism, to mitigate risks associated with forest dependency. Additionally, the study highlights the importance of social networks and local knowledge in facilitating successful diversification. The results indicate that while diversification has improved economic stability, challenges remain, including limited access to markets and resources. The study concludes that promoting livelihood diversification among forest-dependent communities is essential for enhancing their resilience and sustainability. Policymakers should focus on supporting these communities through capacity-building initiatives and improving access to markets and resources.

Abstract

Globalization has increasingly affected forest resources and local communities around the world. The growing demand for natural resources driven by global markets has led to both positive and negative consequences for forests and the people dependent on them. Forest ecosystems, crucial for biodiversity and climate regulation, are often threatened by logging, land conversion, and unsustainable practices associated with globalization. The interaction between economic development, environmental degradation, and local community livelihoods has become a critical area of study in sustainable development and environmental conservation. This study aims to examine the impact of globalization on forest resources and local communities, with a focus on both the challenges and opportunities arising from global economic integration. It seeks to understand how globalization influences forest degradation, conservation efforts, and the socio-economic conditions of indigenous and rural populations. The research employs a mixed-methods approach, combining qualitative case studies from various regions with quantitative analysis of forest resource depletion trends. Data were gathered from interviews with local communities, government reports, and forest resource databases. Statistical tools were used to analyze the correlation between globalization indicators (e.g., trade volumes, foreign investments) and deforestation rates. The study finds that while globalization has led to economic growth in some areas, it has also accelerated deforestation and degraded local ecosystems. Communities dependent on forests for livelihood have experienced both disruption of traditional practices and exposure to new economic opportunities. However, the benefits of globalization have been uneven, with wealthier communities often benefiting more than the most vulnerable. Globalization presents a complex challenge for forest resources and local communities. Sustainable solutions require a balance between economic development and environmental conservation, with inclusive policies that protect the interests of indigenous and rural populations.
