Abstract

This study investigates the implementation of Total Quality Management (TQM) in improving educational quality at SMA Negeri 4 Pekalongan by examining leadership commitment, stakeholder involvement, and continuous improvement practices. A qualitative case study design was employed involving 15 participants, including the principal, teachers, administrative staff, students, and parents. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, observations, and document analysis, and analyzed using the Miles and Huberman interactive model with triangulation to ensure trustworthiness. The findings indicate that TQM implementation remains in a transitional stage and has not yet been fully institutionalized as an organizational culture. Although school leadership demonstrates strong commitment through planning, supervision, and evaluation, follow-up actions remain limited and largely procedural. Stakeholder participation is still concentrated on operational activities, while continuous improvement is constrained by weak data utilization and fragmented evaluation systems. This study contributes empirical evidence on TQM implementation in Indonesian secondary schools and highlights the importance of participatory governance, evidence-based decision-making, and sustainable quality culture to strengthen institutional effectiveness.

Abstract

This quasi-experimental study examined the effect of Problem-Based Learning (PBL) assisted by PhET simulations on students' conceptual understanding of motion dynamics. The participants were 64 eleventh-grade science students at SMA Negeri 6 Bengkulu, divided into an experimental class receiving PhET-assisted PBL and a control class receiving PBL only. Students' conceptual understanding was assessed using essay tests based on the SOLO Taxonomy. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, the Mann–Whitney U test, normalized gain (N-Gain), and rank-biserial effect size. The results revealed no statistically significant difference between the experimental and control groups (p = 0.204). Nevertheless, the experimental group achieved a moderate N-Gain score (0.313) and a small effect size (r = 0.158), indicating that PhET-assisted PBL produced moderate learning improvement without providing a significant advantage over PBL alone. These findings suggest that PBL remains the primary contributor to conceptual understanding, while PhET serves as a complementary visualization tool that supports learning consistency.

Abstract

Reading comprehension remains a major challenge for Indonesian vocational students learning English as a Foreign Language (EFL), partly because conventional instruction often fails to promote engagement. This study investigated the effectiveness of Stardew Valley, a commercial farming simulation game, as an authentic digital learning medium to improve EFL reading comprehension. A pre-experimental one-group pretest–posttest design was employed involving 36 tenth-grade vocational students. Participants completed a pretest, engaged in a structured 50-minute gameplay session emphasizing dialogue, quest instructions, and contextual reading tasks, and then completed a posttest. Reading comprehension was measured using a validated 25-item multiple-choice test. The findings revealed that the mean score increased from 55.00 to 66.94. A paired-samples t-test indicated a statistically significant improvement, t(35) = 9.580, p < 0.001, with a large practical effect (Cohen’s d = 1.597). These findings demonstrate that integrating commercial digital games into EFL instruction can effectively enhance reading comprehension while fostering greater learner engagement in vocational education.
