Abstract

This study addresses the gap between Islamic value-based education and contemporary child-centered pedagogies, which are often examined separately in previous research. It aims to analyze how an integrative Qur’anic curriculum can be effectively implemented within a Montessori-based framework in Islamic primary schools across Indonesia and Malaysia. This research employs a qualitative multiple case study design, using comparative analysis of selected Islamic schools that adopt integrative and Montessori-inspired practices. The findings indicate that integrating Qur’anic values with Montessori pedagogy fosters a holistic learning environment that supports students’ cognitive, social, emotional, and spiritual development. The use of mixed-age classrooms and prepared learning environments encourages autonomy, collaboration, and meaningful engagement, while spiritual practices are embedded within daily learning activities as lived experiences. This study contributes by proposing an integrative Qur’anic–Montessori model as a hybrid pedagogical framework that bridges religious education and modern learner-centered approaches. The findings offer practical and theoretical implications for developing holistic and value-oriented Islamic education systems in both local and broader international contexts.

Abstract

The advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) has shifted educational paradigms from digitalization toward adaptive, data-driven, and learner-centered ecosystems. This study analyzes the readiness of AI-based digital learning systems in Indonesia, Australia, Finland, the United States, and Japan. A comparative qualitative multiple-case study design was employed, drawing on national policy documents, international organizational reports, and recent scholarly publications, analyzed through thematic content analysis and cross-case comparison. Five dimensions were examined: policy and regulatory frameworks, digital infrastructure, teacher competencies, student AI literacy, and ethical governance. Findings indicate that AI readiness is determined by the institutional integration of all five dimensions rather than technological advancement alone. Countries with stronger cross-dimensional alignment demonstrate higher readiness levels. Indonesia has advanced through national AI policies but faces persistent challenges in infrastructure equity, human resource capacity, and regulatory comprehensiveness. This study proposes an integrated conceptual framework to guide the development of inclusive, sustainable, and human-centered education policies.
