Abstract

Digital transformation has become a strategic issue in higher education management, including in Perguruan Tinggi Islam Swasta (PTIS), which are required to enhance academic service quality, management effectiveness, and competitiveness in the global era. This study aims to describe the implementation of digital transformation in PTIS management, identify opportunities, analyze challenges, and propose optimization strategies. A qualitative approach, employing a case study strategy, was used. Data were collected through observations, in-depth interviews with university leaders, lecturers, administrative staff, and students, as well as institutional documents and policies. The findings indicate that PTIS has implemented various systems, including SIAKAD (an academic information system), a Learning Management System (LMS), digital libraries, and technology-based financial services. Nevertheless, obstacles remain, including limited infrastructure, resistance among some lecturers, low digital literacy, and financial constraints. At the same time, digitalization opens up opportunities for greater transparency in governance, improved administrative efficiency, expanded access to learning, and stronger Good University Governance. These findings underscore the importance of adaptive management strategies, systematic human resource capacity-building, and sustainable infrastructure investment to ensure effective and relevant digital transformation in PTIS.

Abstract

Student learning motivation is a critical factor in determining academic success, engagement, and persistence in higher education, particularly within the context of evolving learning environments shaped by digital transformation and socio-cultural diversity. This study aims to analyze student learning motivation through the lens of Self-Determination Theory, with a focus on the fulfillment of the basic psychological needs of autonomy, competence, and relatedness across multiple provinces in Indonesia. The research employs an interpretive qualitative approach with a multi-site design, involving students from diverse regions through in-depth interviews, observations, and focus group discussions. The findings reveal that student motivation is significantly influenced by the level of autonomy in learning, perceived academic competence, and the quality of social relationships within the learning environment. In addition, contextual factors such as the role of instructors, the integration of technology, and institutional policies shape motivational dynamics differently across regions. This study contributes to the theoretical advancement of learning motivation within the Self-Determination Theory framework and provides practical implications for developing more adaptive, inclusive, and context-sensitive learning strategies in Indonesian higher education.
