Abstract

This study aims to analyze teacher needs, quantity planning, quality, and distribution in Indonesia through a qualitative literature study approach. Data were obtained from various scientific sources such as journals, policy reports, and official documents from the Ministry of Education, Culture, Research, and Technology. The analysis shows that teacher needs in Indonesia are not yet aligned with available positions, exacerbated by a wave of mass retirements that has increased the deficit in several regions. Teacher number planning faces major obstacles in the form of inaccurate data and weak coordination between agencies, resulting in recruitment not always reflecting actual needs in schools. In terms of quality, competency improvement programs such as certification and training have not consistently improved pedagogical performance, particularly in areas with limited access. Furthermore, teacher distribution remains unequal, with a concentration in urban areas and shortages in Frontier, Remote, and Disadvantaged areas. These findings emphasize that the issues of teacher quantity, quality, and distribution are interrelated and require an integrative policy approach. Consequently, the government needs to develop an integrated education data system, strengthen needs-based planning, and implement incentives and ongoing professional development programs to encourage equitable teacher distribution across Indonesia.

Abstract

Innovative behavior among teachers is vital in addressing educational challenges in the era of globalization, particularly in pesantren environments that integrate religious and general education. This research examines the transformation of teachers' innovative behavior based on the management of Kulliyyatu-l-Mu'allimīn Al-Islāmiyyah (KMI) at Pondok Modern Al Barokah. The study aims to analyze the roles of transformational leadership, teacher self-efficacy, and organizational support in fostering innovative behaviors within the KMI framework. Using a qualitative approach, the research employs case studies through in-depth interviews, observations, and document analysis. Data were analyzed using Spradley’s model, which includes domain, taxonomy, component, and cultural theme analysis. Validity tests were based on credibility, transferability, dependability, and confirmability. The study reveals that the transformation of teachers’ innovative behavior at Pondok Modern Al Barokah is influenced by two main factors. First, transformational leadership motivates teachers to explore new teaching methods and integrate technology, despite existing limitations. Second, increased teacher self-efficacy, facilitated by continuous training and collaborative experiences, encourages creative teaching practices. Organizational support, such as flexible policies and the establishment of Professional Learning Communities (PLCs), strengthens innovation and promotes collaboration among teachers. The integration of both religious and public curricula fosters holistic learning innovations. This research offers practical contributions for Islamic boarding school administrators and educational institutions, guiding the design of management strategies that support teacher innovation. Theoretical implications highlight the role of self-efficacy and organizational support in enhancing transformational leadership and innovative behaviors in the context of faith-based education.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the competency development needs of contact center team leaders based on the evaluation of training and implementation during the Indonesian National Contact Center Competition. A total of 416 participants from various inbound, outbound, and digital positions took part in the program, including 54 Team Leaders. The competency assessment was conducted using a computer-based testing application to ensure measurable and objective results. Participants were prepared through two different approaches: the first group combined e-learning with video conferencing, while the second group combined e-learning with face-to-face sessions. Data analysis focused specifically on team leader participants and applied ANOVA to examine differences in learning outcomes between groups, as well as to identify critical areas requiring competency enhancement. The findings revealed significant differences between the two groups and highlighted the need for strengthening competencies in quality measurement, case analysis, data analysis, performance evaluation, and the strategic role of the contact center. These results emphasize the importance of targeted training for team leaders to enhance their ability to manage contact center operations. The use of blended learning methods combined with computer-based testing provides a more accurate depiction of training effectiveness.

Abstract

This study analyzes the digital divide in the utilization of e-journals among students at Universitas Negeri Jakarta (UNJ). A qualitative method was employed through in-depth interviews with 45 students from various faculties. The results reveal that although access to e-journals has been provided through subscriptions to premium platforms, the actual utilization rate remains very low only 18% of students have ever used them, and 6.7% are active users. The findings identify a multidimensional digital divide, particularly in the aspects of skills (58% of students faced technical difficulties) and motivation (47% of students preferred alternative platforms). Analysis using the UTAUT theory uncovered barriers in performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, and facilitating conditions. Disparities in usage were also evident across faculties, indicating the need for discipline-specific approaches. This study recommends comprehensive strategies, including simplifying technical access, integrating digital literacy into the curriculum, enhancing massive socialization, and expanding relevant collections. The implementation of these strategies is expected to support the transformation of UNJ's library services toward inclusive and empowering digital services

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the self-efficacy level of Islamic Religious Education (PAI) teachers and identify factors that influence the implementation of deep learning-based learning at Muhammadiyah 1 High School, Ponorogo. The research method used is descriptive qualitative with data collection techniques through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation studies of eight PAI teachers. Data analysis was conducted using the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña which includes the stages of reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results show that the level of self-efficacy of Islamic Religious Education (PAI) teachers is in the medium to high category with variations in three main dimensions : learning planning (high), implementation (medium-high), and challenge management (medium). The most dominant strengthening factors are mastery experience through successful experiences and social persuasion through collegial support, while inhibiting factors include administrative burden, limited practice models, and physiological fatigue due to workload. Overall, teacher self-efficacy acts as a catalyst for pedagogical transformation from conventional approaches to contextual, reflective, and character-based deep learning.

Abstract

The growth of sophisticated conversational artificial intelligence (AI) technology has had a large impact on higher education, but there is limited empirical research into its effectiveness for developing oral-aural skills. Although AI for language learning has previously focused on text-based skills, the development of powerful voice interaction technology opens up new opportunities for pedagogy. This paper fills this gap by examining the effect of ChatGPT’s Advanced Voice Mode on the oral proficiency development of EFL learners at a university level. Following a mixed methods explanatory sequential model design, this study quantitatively determined the improvements in learners' oral proficiency over an intervention period of 8 weeks. The next phase was qualitative, where we elicited learners' perspectives and experiences though semi-structured interviews. Quantitative findings indicate that fluency and lexical resource significantly improved, but pronunciation was found not to improve significantly. This discrepancy was promoted through qualitative data, focusing on three main themes: the AI's potential for low-anxiety rehearsal spaces, learners' annoyance with the tool's lack of nuanced feedback about accent phenomena and the difficulty associated with its real-time corrective function. The experimental results indicate that ChatGPT’s voice mode is a powerful tool to help develop learners’ confidence and fluency in conversation, but is best used as an adjunctive instrument with other means of pedagogical support. It cannot take the place of the subtle, phonetic and pragmatic model that teacher- led instruction provides. These results inform a proposed underpinning "Blended Dialogic Model" to incorporate conversational AI in language curriculum, focusing on technology-mediated practice and expert human tutorial working synergistically.
