Abstract

This study examines the crucial relationship between the quality of scientific publications and lecturer performance in higher education institutions. As a primary indicator of academic achievement and professional development, enhancing publication quality is a vital factor in fostering the superior teaching and research capabilities of lecturers. This article describes the implementation and evaluation of a national webinar titled “Enhancing Scientific Publication Quality Toward Outstanding Lecturer Performance,” organized by the Information Technology Education Study Program at the University of West Sulawesi. This webinar aimed to improve lecturers' competence in writing and publishing high-quality scientific articles that meet the standards of reputable national and international journals. The event was conducted online via the Zoom Meeting platform on August 7, 2025, featuring an experienced keynote speaker. A total of 118 participants registered and completed the event. The evaluation was conducted through an online form, covering satisfaction with the material, the speaker's delivery, and the relevance of the content to the participants' academic needs. The findings of this study identify key strategies for improving publication quality—such as targeted training, mentorship programs, and a collaborative research environment—which significantly contribute to enhancing lecturer performance. This study concludes that strengthening publication quality is not only a path to academic excellence but also an essential component in developing competent and effective lecturers, which in turn enhances institutional reputation and student learning outcomes. Recommendations for policymakers and educational institutions are also discussed to support the continuous professional development of lecturers.

Abstract

This study provides an in-depth examination of the implementation and impact of a workshop designed to enhance lecturers' competence in developing innovative Semester Learning Plans (RPS) based on the Project/Case Method. Amidst the demands of the Merdeka Belajar Kampus Merdeka (MBKM) policy, which prioritizes active, student-centered learning, lecturers' ability to design authentic and applicable learning experiences has become a crucial factor in improving the quality of higher education and equipping graduates with relevant skills. The workshop, titled "Building a Project and Case Method-Based RPS for Active and Meaningful Learning," was organized by the Information Technology Education Study Program at the University of West Sulawesi as a strategic response to this need. The event was conducted as an intensive face-to-face session on August 6, 2025, featuring an expert speaker in curriculum design and pedagogy. A total of 15 lecturers from the Faculty of Teacher Training and Education (FKIP) registered and actively participated until the conclusion. The workshop's success was evaluated not only through feedback but also directly through the practice of drafting an RPS, which served as the main performance indicator. Participants were guided to apply robust theoretical frameworks, such as the principle of constructive alignment, to ensure coherence between Graduate Learning Outcomes (CPL), Course Learning Outcomes (CPMK), and Sub-CPMKs. Furthermore, the application of the revised Bloom's Taxonomy was a primary focus for formulating challenging learning objectives that foster Higher-Order Thinking Skills (HOTS). The study's results indicate that this training approach, which combines theory with direct practice, is highly effective. Participants successfully produced initial drafts of RPS that integrated project and case study methods, demonstrating a significant improvement in their understanding and skills. This study concludes that the professional development of lecturers through targeted workshops is a critical investment for pedagogical transformation, which in turn directly contributes to enhancing the quality of the learning process and achieving institutional academic excellence.

Abstract

Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif yang didukung oleh analisis kuantitatif deskriptif untuk mengkaji dampak teknologi berbasis deep learning dalam pembelajaran bahasa Inggris sebagai bahasa asing (EFL). Partisipan terdiri atas 25 calon guru Bahasa Inggris dari Polewali Mandar yang mengisi kuesioner 30 butir dengan skala Likert 5 poin, serta lima orang yang diwawancarai secara semi-terstruktur. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa para calon guru memiliki tingkat kepercayaan diri yang tinggi dalam menggunakan AI (M = 3,93), literasi AI yang baik (M = 3,70), serta sikap positif terhadap AI (M = 3,92). Dukungan institusi juga tergolong kuat (M = 3,75), meskipun kebutuhan pelatihan masih sangat tinggi (M = 4,25). Selain itu, mereka menunjukkan niat yang kuat untuk menggunakan AI (M = 3,84), terutama guru yang lebih berpengalaman yang menilai AI sangat bermanfaat (M = 4,32). AI dipandang membantu dalam perencanaan pembelajaran, meningkatkan kreativitas, efisiensi, serta kemandirian belajar siswa. Namun, terdapat kekhawatiran terkait ketergantungan berlebihan pada AI yang dapat menurunkan kemampuan berpikir kritis, memicu kemalasan akademik, dan mengurangi interaksi sosial. Secara keseluruhan, calon guru EFL menunjukkan kesiapan dan sikap positif terhadap integrasi AI, dengan catatan perlunya pelatihan, dukungan institusi, dan pedoman etis yang memadai.
