Abstract

The preparation of honesty attitude assessment instruments is essential for planning to improve student honesty. Assessment and improvement of student honesty in the educational environment are critical to forming a strong character of integrity. This study aims to develop an honesty attitude assessment instrument for junior high and high school students. This study uses a development research method with a theory development model. The instrument's development was first conducted through a theoretical study with a literature study to formulate indicators. Then, the researcher created an instrument based on these indicators, consulted with the supervising lecturer, asked for expert judgment, conducted validity and reliability tests, and conducted analysis. The study results showed four indicators of honesty: honesty, trustworthiness, keeping promises, and fairness. The instrument developed was in the form of 40 questionnaire items using a Likert scale. This instrument was tested on 103 grade 9 students at SMP Laboratorium Percontohan UPI. The analysis showed that the instrument was valid and reliable, with an alpha coefficient of 0.8723. The practical implications of this study indicate that this instrument can be used in quasi-experimental research. Theoretically, this study can enrich the theory of measuring honesty attitudes and be the basis for further research.

Abstract

Digital literacy, including Islamic Religious Education (IRE), has become essential in modern education. This article discusses the efforts of IRE teachers in improving digital literacy to strengthen students' religious interactions toward forming a Good Digital Citizenship society. This study uses a qualitative approach to explore the experiences and strategies of IRE teachers in Junior High Schools (JHS) and Senior High Schools (SHS) in integrating technology into learning. Data were obtained through in-depth interviews with 10 IRE teachers skilled in digital literacy and accustomed to using digital media and content in teaching. The data were analyzed using the Miles and Huberman framework, involving data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing to identify patterns and themes related to digital literacy integration. The study results show that IRE teachers integrate technology through digital tools such as Google For Education, Quizizz, Canva, and video platforms such as YouTube to enrich the learning experience. Teachers also create digital content such as interactive modules, educational videos, and podcasts, which engage students and expand access to relevant religious information. Additionally, teachers provide digital literacy education that includes training on digital ethics, online security, and responsible social media usage. This study concludes that digital literacy in IRE supports students' technological skills and helps shape their moral character in the digital world. This effort significantly contributes to forming students as good digital citizens who can interact ethically and productively in the digital space. The implications of this study indicate the importance of ongoing digital literacy training for teachers and students to support relevant religious education in the digital era.

The purpose of this study is to ensure reliable and fair test items in each educational unit. This research uses a quantitative approach which focuses on the equating method School Examination test equipment especially for English language subjects at the high school level in Muna district which has 2 schools. Data collection was carried out through documentation of student responses on the School Examination for English subjects. Student responses came from 2 question packages from 2 middle schools in Muna District. In addition, there were a total of 96 students involved in the school exam with each SMA 1 having 56 students and SMA 2 having 40 students. There were only 2 high schools of the same level in the Tongkuno area, especially Muna Regency, and took the question packages from the same source. Data were analyzed using an equating technique based on Item Response Theory with the mean-mean method. Item parameter estimation and equalization were used with the help of R Studio and Microsoft Excel programs. Therefore, R Studio is used to estimate the validity and reliability of the two question packages while Microsoft Excel is used to equalize the 2 different scores. The equating results in an equalization constant that ensures the two test packages now have scores that can be compared more fairly and accurately. Thus, these findings show the importance of the equating process in improving the integrity of educational evaluation in Indonesia especially to ensuring equivalence in two different packages is crucial to produce equal and fair score results.

Abstract

Curriculum change has occurred multiple times in Indonesia. The latest curriculum change to Kurikulum Merdeka (Emancipated Curriculum) posed some challenges and difficulties among teachers because they were required to implement the curriculum and any policies from the central government in a relatively short time. The present study aims to describe how two Indonesian EFL teachers adapted to such curriculum change. Two English teachers with over a decade of experience were involved. One taught at a vocational high school in a rural area, focusing on practical English. The other taught at an urban school, emphasizing academic English. To collect the narratives, semi-structured interviews were conducted. Thematic analysis with predefined themes based on Fullan's theoretical framework was applied to point out unique data patterns that would shed some light on how the two participants adjusted themselves and their practices in response to changes in curricular policies. This study will examine how teachers adapted to rapid curricular changes in Indonesia, including the challenges they faced, the support they received, and the strategies they employed, such as the utilization of online resources like YouTube.

Abstract

The importance of addressing gender equality in education lies in its critical role in fostering inclusivity, diversity, and equitable opportunities for all learners. This study explored students' attitudes toward gender equality, focusing on their perceptions in academic, personal, and extracurricular contexts, to better understand prevailing attitudes and identify areas requiring attention. Employing a quantitative research design, data were collected from 45 students enrolled in the Bachelor of Science in Food Technology program at the Technological University of the Philippines through a validated survey. ANOVA was utilized to analyze whether significant differences existed in gender equality perceptions across respondent groups. This technique was chosen for its relevance in assessing variance within and between groups, providing insights into attitudinal uniformity or diversity among students. Results showed overwhelmingly positive attitudes toward gender equality, with strong agreement that gender should not limit participation or performance in academic and extracurricular settings. However, slight gaps were observed in areas such as institutional support for extracurricular activities and equitable treatment of genders within familial environments. The ANOVA findings revealed no statistically significant differences among groups, underscoring the uniformity in perceptions despite diverse backgrounds. These findings highlight the progress made in promoting gender equality while emphasizing the need for continuous efforts to address unconscious biases and support inclusivity in education. The study contributes to the growing discourse on gender equality in educational contexts and serves as a call to action for institutions to prioritize inclusive practices across all facets of student life.

Abstract

This study evaluates the implementation of Clo3D technology in fashion vocational education, focusing on its benefits, challenges, and practical implications. The research employed a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method, following PRISMA guidelines to assess relevant studies on Clo3D usage in educational contexts. Data analysis involved thematic analysis to identify key trends and outcomes from the selected literature. The results reveal that Clo3D significantly enhances student creativity, leading to a 23% increase in design diversity, and reduces material waste by 35-40%, promoting sustainable design practices. However, the research also identified critical challenges, such as inadequate infrastructure in over 60% of vocational schools and a lack of teacher preparedness, with 70% of teachers reporting insufficient training. To address these challenges, this study suggests strategic investment in technology infrastructure, comprehensive teacher training programs, gradual curriculum integration, and enhanced collaboration with the fashion industry. The novelty of this research lies in providing a concrete framework for improving Clo3D adoption in vocational education, offering insights into how schools and policymakers can bridge gaps in technology access and prepare students for industry demands.
