Abstract

Implementing the Independent Curriculum is increasingly urgent in efforts to improve the quality of education that is more flexible, relevant, and adaptive to students' needs. However, problems are still related to the effective implementation of the independent curriculum in educational institutions, especially at the Islamic-based madrasa level. The purpose of this study is to describe the implementation strategy of the Independent Curriculum at MAN Palopo, as well as to identify the challenges faced and opportunities that can be optimized. Using a qualitative method with a case study type, this study found several main strategies, such as classroom adjustments, digital skills development through technology, interest-based learning, and intensive teacher training. The main findings show that MAN Palopo has demonstrated a high commitment to implementing the Independent Curriculum, including integrating technology and project-based learning, but faces limited facilities, time management, and teacher training that still needs improvement. The implications of this study include the need to improve facilities and infrastructure, fulfil the need for technological devices, ongoing training for teachers, and more efficient time management to ensure that the implementation of the Independent Curriculum runs optimally and sustainably.

Abstract

This study analyzes the role of social media and political education in moderating thought in the era of radicalism, particularly in dealing with hate content. Social media plays a dual role: disseminating useful information and spreading hate content that incites radicalism. This article uses a qualitative approach with descriptive analysis methods. The research location is in the Province of Aceh. Primary data consists of in-depth interviews with local intellectuals, including academics, religious scholars, and community leaders. The results show that social media significantly influences public opinion and people's mindsets. However, through proper political education, social media can be used to spread values of moderation and tolerance and reduce the impact of hate content. Political education that is inclusive and based on national and humanitarian values has proven effective in instilling a moderate attitude. A curriculum emphasizing dialogue, tolerance, and respect for differences is crucial.

Abstract

The development of the Islamic education curriculum encounters various complex challenges stemming from both internal and external factors. Key challenges include the dynamics of globalization, socio-cultural changes, technological advancements, and the need to balance religious values with 21st-century competencies. This study examines these challenges, focusing on issues such as rapid technological progress, the integration of global and local values, and strategies for developing a curriculum that is relevant, flexible, and aligned with modern educational goals. Employing a qualitative approach, the research utilizes literature reviews and expert interviews to analyze the dynamics of curriculum development in Islamic education. The findings reveal that the challenges faced by Islamic education significantly impact both its internal and external dimensions. Internal challenges include achieving the eight national education standards, addressing the demographic bonus resulting from Indonesia's population growth, and tackling character development issues. To remain competitive in the era of globalization and produce graduates who meet contemporary demands, Islamic education must focus on developing human resources capable of adapting to current and future needs. On the other hand, external challenges are more forward-looking, requiring Islamic education to prepare for future demands related to social issues, advancements in technology and information, the growth of creative and cultural industries, and the internationalization of education, including the pursuit of world-class university standards.

Abstract

This study examines the reconstruction of the Islamic Religious Education (PAI) curriculum as a strategy to prevent bullying in SMA Primaganda. The problem of bullying in schools is a serious issue that requires special attention. The hypothesis is that the integration of anti-bullying values ​​in the PAI curriculum will be effective in reducing bullying incidents in schools. This study uses a case study method with a qualitative approach, involving in-depth interviews with PAI teachers, students, and education experts, participant observation, and analysis of curriculum documents. The results of the study indicate that the reconstruction of the PAI curriculum that integrates anti-bullying values ​​has succeeded in reducing bullying incidents in schools. This success was achieved through systematic implementation that included the development of learning modules, teacher training, and collaborative activities. A holistic approach involving the dimensions of moral knowledge, moral feelings, and moral actions has proven effective in increasing students' awareness and understanding of the negative impacts of bullying. The continuous evaluation system confirms the creation of positive changes in school culture, marked by increased empathy and cooperation among students. The findings of the study indicate that the integration of anti-bullying values ​​in the PAI curriculum is not only effective in preventing bullying but also contributes to the formation of positive student character and the creation of a safe and inclusive learning environment. This curriculum reconstruction model can be a reference for other educational institutions in developing effective bullying prevention programs.

Abstract

This research is an academic effort that examines the phenomenon of intolerance and religious radicalization among high school students and college students in the cities of Lamongan and Surabaya; this study offers an actual theoretical discussion of the complex factors that shape young people's views on religious attitudes, This study aims to understand religious intolerance and radicalization among high school students and university students in Lamongan and Surabaya;  Methode of this research are quantitative and qualitative methods to understand this problem's complexity. The study begins with a quantitative survey to obtain a general picture of intolerant attitudes in both public and private schools and universities in Lamongan and Surabaya. After the quantitative survey, in-depth interviews will be conducted with high school and university students. Lamongan and Surabaya were chosen based on their well-known Islamic base and substantial variety of associations. This research shows that the experience of interacting with followers of different religions has an extraordinary impact on a culture of openness and inclusive attitudes. Some open-minded young people who befriend non-Muslims do so not because they have been introduced to inclusive teachings or views but because their daily experiences have accustomed them to interacting with friends of different faiths.

Abstract

Exploration of the integration of Qur'anic values in managerial supervision is still rare. This research conducted in the Riau Islands proposes a Qur'an-based supervision framework that is proven to improve school management and support the achievement of the eight National Education Standards (SNP). In addition to improving school management, the integration of religious values also contributes to the establishment of a more holistic and quality learning environment. Using a qualitative approach, data were collected from nine madrasahs through interviews, observation and document analysis. The findings show that the application of Qur'anic values, such as tawhid (oneness of God), amanah (trust) and shura (deliberation), improves leadership effectiveness, managerial efficiency and learning quality. This model allows madrasahs to be more adaptive in facing modern educational challenges, such as limited resources and increased professionalism of educators. The implementation of Qur'an-based supervision not only improves institutional governance but also strengthens the moral and ethical aspects of educational leadership. Further research is needed to test the application of this model in various educational contexts to optimise its benefits, both in public schools and higher education institutions, so that Qur'an-based supervision can be applied more widely and effectively.

The sultanate's role was huge in developing Islamic education by supporting intellectual traditions to produce qualified scholars with a high scientific reputation in the Islamic religion.
