Critical thinking skills are crucial for students as they are closely tied to their problem-solving capabilities. This study aims to develop a teaching module integrated with the ethnomathematics of the Jam Gadang architecture to enhance students' critical thinking skills on the topic of flat shapes. This research adopts a Research and Development (RD) approach using the Plomp model. The study involves fifth-grade students from a state elementary school in Sungai Jariang in a one-to-one and small-group method trial class, and a state elementary school in Pahambatan Balingka as a field trial class. Data analysis employs validity analysis techniques, practicality analysis techniques utilizing a Likert scale, and effectiveness analysis techniques using a one-group pretest-posttest design. The research instruments include a questionnaire and a critical thinking test. Validation of the teaching module instrument scored 3.6, and student worksheets (LKPD) scored 3.83, both falling into the highly valid category. The practicality of the teaching module reached 92.86%, while the practicality of student worksheets (LKPD) reported 91.18% from the students' perspective and 95.85% from the teacher's perspective, all categorized as highly practical. The Jam Gadang integrated learning modules for ethnomathematics were declared effective in the medium category based on the calculated N-Gain value in field trials of 0.51. Thus, this learning module is suitable for use in improving students' critical thinking skills.

This research examines the transformation of kiai leadership in Madura, shifting from religious roles to political authority. This change reflects broader socio-political dynamics in Indonesia, where religious figures increasingly engage in politics. Madura, with its strong Islamic traditions, provides a vital case study to understand the factors driving this transformation and its impacts on local society and politics. Data was collected through field observations and interviews with nine informants, including three cultural figures, three academics, and three kiai. Key findings reveal that kiai leadership has evolved from a focus on education and social preaching to active involvement in nationalist political dynamics. Kiai now serve not only as spiritual leaders but also as influential political actors. This transformation is driven by socio-political changes in Indonesia, offering greater opportunities for religious figures in the political arena. Consequently, there has been a shift in the leadership structure and function within the Madurese community, with kiai assuming more complex and strategic roles. The significance of these findings lies in their contribution to academic literature and practical applications. For the academic community, this research provides new insights into the dynamics of kiai leadership in Madura, enriching the discourse on the intersection of religion and politics in Indonesia. Practically, understanding the transformation of kiai roles aids policymakers and community leaders in developing strategies to manage the relationship between religious institutions and politics. Additionally, these insights assist kiai and other religious leaders in navigating their evolving roles amidst ongoing socio-political changes.

The importance of integrating gender approaches into inclusive sexuality education is prominent in creating a safe, supportive educational environment as well as providing a holistic understanding of sexual and gender issues. This study aims to investigate the positive impact of integrating gender approaches in inclusive sexuality education on individual knowledge of gender issues, gender awareness and sexual behavior. The library research method is the main framework to explain the theoretical foundations and previous findings in this area, identify potential research gaps, and formulate a solid framework for this topic. The results showed that sex education that pays attention to gender issues has a positive impact on increasing understanding of gender roles in relationships and sexuality, reducing negative gender stereotypes, and creating an inclusive learning environment. In addition, gender awareness plays an important role in shaping attitudes that are supportive of gender diversity and sexual orientation, which in turn promotes healthy sexual behavior and open communication in relationships. Evaluating the effectiveness of sex education programs that incorporate gender issues has also proven to be very important in improving the quality of such programs. Inclusive and gender-sensitive sexuality education thus serves not only to increase understanding but also as a tool for building a more inclusive society, respecting gender diversity and promoting safe and healthy sexual behavior.
