Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the implementation of top-tier Senior High Schools (SMU), focusing on the following aspects: the school's physical, social, and cultural environment, the student selection process for elite schools, the qualifications and recruitment of educational staff, the understanding and application of the curriculum, school management, and efforts to secure and utilize funds. It is an evaluative study that combines process and fidelity evaluation approaches, using ethnographic methods, conducted at SMAN 1 Semarang. Data was collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation, analyzed using domain, taxonomy, componential, and theme analysis. The validity of the research data was checked with data source and method triangulation. The results show a conducive learning culture formed through the physical environment, a good and harmonious social and cultural school environment, a selective yet challenging recruitment process, curriculum development by increasing hours for subjects critical for college admission, limited but optimally utilized facilities, quality teaching and learning processes, good, communicative, and transparent school management, and funding supported by routine fees and voluntary donations from stakeholders. Despite the non-formal designation of "elite" schools, community recognition is naturally given based on the school's educational implementation and services.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the correlation between self-efficacy, work experience, and openness to change within the academic circle of the State Islamic Institute of Lhokseumawe. This study employs a quantitative research method with a correlational design. The research population includes all academic staff of the institution, consisting of lecturers and educational staff. The research sample consisted of 160 respondents, comprising 100 lecturers spread across four faculties —the Faculty of Sharia (21 people), the Faculty of Education and Teacher Training (44 people), the Faculty of Economics and Islamic Business (21 people), and the Faculty of Ushuluddin, Adab, and Dakwah (14 people)—and 60 educational staff. The sample was selected using convenience sampling techniques, taking into account the representation of each faculty and job category. The data were analyzed using descriptive analysis, Pearson's correlation, and multiple regression. The results showed a significant positive correlation between self-efficacy and openness to change, with a higher correlation coefficient in the lecturer group (r = 0.50) than in the educational staff group (r = 0.38). Furthermore, these findings indicate that individuals with high self-efficacy tend to be more open to change. In terms of work experience, respondents with less than five years of service showed more openness to change (r = 0.50) than respondents with more than ten years of service (r = 0.35). This indicates a tendency for resistance to change to increase with length of service.
