Abstract

This study explores the role of school principals in the supervision process to enhance certified teacher performance at MIN 1 and MIN 5 Pidie Jaya. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and document analysis. The findings reveal that effective supervision involves three key components: (1) Planning: Principals collaborate with teachers to establish structured schedules, clear goals, and suitable techniques for accurate performance assessments, fostering a supportive environment that boosts teacher performance. (2) Implementation: Supervision is carried out through the use of assessment instruments, class observations, and evaluation of teaching materials and learning outcomes, complemented by regular guidance and motivation. (3) Evaluation: Principals provide structured feedback and follow-up actions, such as improvement plans and additional training, to facilitate teachers’ professional development. The study concludes that the successful implementation of planning, execution, and evaluation in the supervision process at MIN 1 and MIN 5 Pidie Jaya significantly enhances teacher performance and contributes to improving the overall quality of education.

Abstract

This study addresses the suboptimal performance of teachers, which is influenced by the leadership style of school principals and the organizational culture within educational institutions. Effective leadership is essential, as principals should act as facilitators, motivators, and role models for their subordinates, fostering a positive work environment. This research aims to examine (1) the impact of leadership style on teacher performance, (2) the effect of organizational culture on teacher performance, and (3) the combined influence of leadership style and organizational culture on teacher performance in Islamic Boarding Schools in Southeast Aceh Regency. Using an ex-post facto research design, the study involved a population of 110 teachers from three Islamic Boarding Schools: Darul Azhar, Darul Iman, and Darul Amin. Saturated sampling was applied, including all members of the population. The findings show that (1) leadership style significantly and positively affects teacher performance, with a p-value of 0.000 < 0.05, (2) organizational culture also positively and significantly influences teacher performance, with a p-value of 0.00 < 0.05, and (3) both leadership style and organizational culture together contribute significantly to teacher performance, accounting for 98.8% of the variance.

Abstract

This study examines the integration of Madrasah Ibtidaiyah 4.0, an educational model utilizing advanced technology to foster religious moderation in Indonesian Islamic primary schools. The research focuses on three Madrasah Ibtidaiyah (MI Al-Barokah, MI Darul Muta’allimin, and MI Nurussalam), chosen for their diverse geographical contexts (urban, border, and rural) and varying levels of technological infrastructure. The study includes 5 teachers, 3 principals, and 60 students from these schools as the primary research subjects. It explores how digital platforms, mobile applications, and online learning environments are used to teach Islamic values, with a focus on pluralism, tolerance, and anti-radicalism. Findings show that technology significantly enhances student engagement and understanding of Islamic teachings, providing opportunities for a moderate worldview. However, the study also identifies key challenges such as inadequate infrastructure, limited access to technology, and the need for teacher training. The study concludes that when implemented effectively, technology can be a powerful tool in promoting moderate religious values and creating an inclusive, balanced approach to Islamic education.

Abstract

This study examines the transformation of Islamic education in Indonesia, focusing on the role of pesantren (Islamic boarding schools) in integrating digital literacy and promoting religious moderation. The research was conducted at three pesantren: Pondok Pesantren Miftahul Ula, Pondok Pesantren Annur, and Pondok Pesantren Fajrul Ula. These institutions were chosen for their unique approaches to blending traditional Islamic education with contemporary digital tools. The study uses a qualitative research design, employing interviews, participant observations, and document analysis to collect data from students, educators, and administrators. The analysis focuses on how digital literacy is incorporated into the curricula of these pesantren and how it influences students' understanding of Islamic teachings in the digital era. Additionally, the research investigates the role of these pesantren in fostering a balanced approach to religious practice, promoting tolerance, and encouraging moderation in Islamic thought. The findings suggest that the incorporation of digital technology not only enhances educational accessibility but also contributes to a more inclusive and moderate religious discourse among students. This study concludes that pesantren play a pivotal role in shaping a progressive and harmonious Islamic education system in Indonesia, balancing tradition with modernity.

Abstract

This research aims to develop and test the effectiveness of the GIDI-SNAKE learning media based on Powtoon animation videos to address low learning achievement in seventh-grade students at SMP Negeri 1 Tugu, particularly in the topic of formulating and establishing Pancasila as the state ideology. The issue is exacerbated by the minimal use of innovative learning media by teachers. The ADDIE development model was applied to create a GIDI-SNAKE game board integrated with Powtoon videos. The game features question and information cards with barcodes, dice, pawns, and cue cards. The product was evaluated for validity, practicality, and effectiveness. The validity was confirmed with an average validation score of 3.84 from two media validators and 3.70 from the material validator. The practicality was demonstrated by a 94.7% approval rate from students. The effectiveness was validated by a significant improvement in learning outcomes, with pre-test and post-test scores of 41.29 and 85.23, respectively, and a significance value (sig) of 0.001, confirming the media’s effectiveness in improving student learning outcomes.

Abstract

This study focuses on understanding the aspects of locomotor skill development in children aged 4-5 years at TK Dharma Wanita Persatuan Bengkololor Benjeng. The objective is to identify the causes of locomotor issues in "Ananda M" and to emphasize the crucial role of teachers and parents in encouraging and cultivating habits that support locomotor development while boosting the child’s self-confidence in physical activities. The study employs a qualitative approach using a case study method. The findings indicate that "Ananda M" demonstrates slight delays in locomotor development compared to peers. This is evident in activities such as running games, where the child appears unsteady; in arched ladder games, where the child trembles or hesitates due to a fear of heights; and in two-foot jumping games, where the child lacks self-confidence, opting to step rather than jump. These issues are attributed to several factors, including a lack of stimulating environmental conditions in the living area, limited social interaction, and traumatic experiences.

Abstract

Curriculum management is a vital component of education, encompassing the processes of planning, implementation, evaluation, and continuous development. This study aims to explore various stages of curriculum management, focusing on the curriculum's relevance to student needs, technological advancements, and the challenges faced during its implementation. The research employs a literature review method by analyzing various relevant sources to obtain comprehensive insights into curriculum management. The findings indicate that effective curriculum planning must be based on an analysis of student needs, alignment with labor market demands, and the latest technological developments. In its implementation, teachers play a crucial role as facilitators in integrating innovative learning methods, such as project-based learning and the use of technology. Curriculum evaluation is essential to assess the effectiveness of learning and the relevance of teaching materials. The primary challenges in curriculum management include resistance to change, limited resources, and inadequate use of technology in teaching. Therefore, curriculum innovation, including the adoption of technology and project-based approaches, can enhance learning effectiveness and better prepare students for future challenges. Collaboration among educational institutions, industries, and the community is also pivotal in creating a more relevant and adaptive curriculum.
