Abstract

This research aims to identify a legal basis, sources, components and challenges in the management of Islamic education financing, and offer solutions to these problems. The method used is a qualitative approach to analyze related issues and produce strategic recommendations to improve the effectiveness of Islamic values-based education programs. The results show that the legal basis of Islamic education financing is based on the National Education System Law No 20 of 2003 and Minister of National Education Regulation No 69 of 2009. The financing components include investment, operational and personal costs. Challenges in management include limited funding sources, high education costs, and lack of transparency and accountability. To overcome these issues, the researchers recommend diversifying sources of financing, improving accountability and developing a financing plan. The findings are expected to make a significant contribution to Islamic education policy in Indonesia and serve as a reference for educational institutions in designing more effective financing strategies.

Abstract

This study examines the role of the principal in facilitating the implementation of the Independent Curriculum in Islamic Religious Education (PAI) at SDN Tenggilis Mejoyo 1 Surabaya. The Independent Curriculum is designed to provide students with the flexibility to choose learning activities that align with their interests and talents, employing a student-centered learning approach.

Through resource management, teacher training, and regular monitoring, the principal strives to create a conducive learning environment for the development of students' religious character. Despite challenges such as limited teacher understanding of the new curriculum and inadequate facilities, strategic measures are undertaken to ensure effective implementation. This study offers insights into the significance of the principal's role in supporting the successful implementation of the Independent Curriculum at the elementary school level.

Abstract

An effective learning environment is a context where students can maximize their potential. In this environment, key elements such as interaction between teachers and students, the appropriate use of technology, supportive space design, and relevant curriculum play crucial roles. Skilled teachers who support active learning, motivate students, and build positive relationships can create an environment that fosters both intellectual and emotional growth.The use of technology is a significant component in modern learning environments. Proper integration of technology can enhance students' access to information, provide variation in teaching methods, and facilitate personalized and adaptive learning. Well-designed learning spaces also play a pivotal role. Ergonomic space design, utilization of open areas for collaboration, and provision of adequate resources can create an atmosphere that supports exploration and creativity. Moreover, a relevant curriculum aligned with current needs is also a key factor. A curriculum that blends theory with practical applications, considers the latest developments, and facilitates critical problem-solving can encourage meaningful learning. Overall, an effective learning environment is about creating a stimulating atmosphere that fosters curiosity, supports collaboration, and encourages critical thinking. When all these components are integrated effectively, students can reach their optimal potential in a nurturing and enjoyable learning environment.

Abstract

Leadership plays a crucial role in running an institution, be it an educational institution, social organization, or government agency. An effective leader is not only able to direct the vision and mission of the institution, but can also inspire and motivate team members to work together to achieve common goals. The inability of a leader to carry out his duties can have fatal consequences, which at one time can determine the success or failure of the institution as a whole. Therefore, an effective, fast, and responsive leader is needed to maximize the performance of an institution. Understanding Islamic educational leadership from a prophetic perspective is urgent in the midst of these challenges. Emulating the Prophet Muhammad SAW allows us to explore holistic and sustainable solutions. The prophetic perspective provides a strong moral foundation and a leadership model that has proven effective in overcoming human problems. Therefore, this study has practical relevance in answering the challenges of contemporary Islamic education. This paper will discuss the characteristics of prophetic leadership, with the hope of providing better insight into leading educational institutions today.

Abstract

This research aims to analyse the protection of citizenship status in Indonesian national law as part of human rights, with a focus on the implementation of Article 15(2) of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR), which prohibits arbitrary deprivation of citizenship. The method used is a normative approach by analysing the laws and regulations governing citizenship in Indonesia and comparing them with the international principles in the UDHR. The results show that although Indonesia has regulated citizenship as a protected right, there are challenges in the implementation of these protections, such as administrative problems of citizenship, dual citizenship, and non-transparent loss of citizenship. The contribution of this research is to provide insight into the importance of protecting citizenship as a human right in the context of national and international law, and to suggest reforms to the administration of citizenship in order to guarantee this right more effectively.
