Abstract

This study investigates the integration of digital spirituality and cyber-ethics within multicultural Islamic education for Generation Z learners in response to the growing challenges of digital transformation and religious identity formation. Employing an exploratory sequential mixed-methods design, the study was conducted in two phases. The qualitative phase involved digital ethnography, participant observation, semi-structured interviews, and focus group discussions with purposively selected students and Islamic education teachers to explore emerging dimensions of digital spirituality and cyber-ethical behavior. Findings from this phase informed the development of a survey instrument that was administered to 210 participants (200 students and 10 Islamic education teachers) from five secondary educational institutions in Pasuruan, Indonesia. Qualitative data were analyzed using thematic analysis, while quantitative data were examined through Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) to validate the relationships among digital spirituality, cyber-ethics, and multicultural Islamic education constructs. The findings reveal a substantial gap between conventional Islamic pedagogical practices and the digital spiritual expectations of Generation Z learners. Approximately 73.5% of participants demonstrated higher engagement with Islamic values when learning experiences incorporated digitally immersive environments and multicultural perspectives. The study further identifies the integration of the Islamic trilogy aqidah, sharia, and tasawuf with cyber-ethical principles as a significant predictor of responsible digital citizenship, religious moderation, and intercultural competence. Based on the integrated qualitative and quantitative findings, this research proposes the Digital Trilogy Integration Model (DTIM), a conceptual framework that harmonizes classical Islamic educational values with contemporary digital learning ecosystems. The model contributes to the advancement of Islamic educational theory by providing an empirically validated approach to strengthening digital spirituality, ethical online behavior, and multicultural competence among Generation Z learners in increasingly pluralistic and digitally mediated societies.

Abstract

This study evaluates the effect of a rule-based AI-supported adaptive game-based learning system on Arabic vocabulary learning among secondary-level students in Indonesia. A quantitative quasi-experimental pretest-posttest control group design was employed with 84 students, consisting of 42 students in the experimental group and 42 students in the control group. The experimental group learned Arabic vocabulary through an adaptive game-based system that adjusted task difficulty based on response accuracy, error patterns, and learning progress, while the control group received conventional vocabulary instruction. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, paired-sample t-tests, Welch’s t-test for gain-score comparison, effect size estimation, normalized gain analysis, and ANCOVA. The results showed that both groups improved, but the experimental group achieved stronger vocabulary gains than the control group. The mean gain score was 7.07 in the experimental group and 3.64 in the control group. Welch’s t-test confirmed a significant between-group difference in gain scores, and ANCOVA showed that the experimental group retained a significant adjusted advantage after controlling for pretest scores. These findings suggest that adaptive game-based learning can support Arabic vocabulary development, although the low N-Gain values and baseline differences require cautious interpretation.

Abstract

Despite the increasing emphasis on Computational Thinking (CT) in primary education, limited research has examined how CT can be systematically developed through mathematics learning trajectories situated in authentic sustainability contexts. This study aimed to design and validated a Computational Thinking Learning Trajectory (CTLT) that integrates four CT practices—Data Practices, Modeling and Simulation, Computational Problem-Solving, and Systems Thinking—through renewable energy optimization projects in primary mathematics classrooms. Using a design research approach, the study was conducted in three phases: preliminary design, teaching experiment, and retrospective analysis. Participants were 30 fourth-grade students (aged 9–10 years) from an primary school in Madiun, Indonesia. Quantitative and qualitative data were collected through observations, interviews, student artifacts, and assessment rubrics to investigate the emergence of CT practices during learning activities. The results, derived from rubric attainment scores and supported by qualitative evidence, showed that all CT practices emerged during learning activities, with Modeling and Simulation (93.3%), Computational Problem-Solving (83.3%), Data Practices (80%), and Systems Thinking (70%) demonstrating substantial levels of attainment. Students demonstrated a progression from arithmetic reasoning toward algorithmic and systems-oriented thinking as they analyzed data, constructed models, evaluated alternative renewable energy solutions, and optimized decision-making processes. The validated learning trajectory provides empirical evidence of how sustainability-based mathematical projects can support the development of CT in primary education. These findings contribute to the growing body of research on CT integration in mathematics curricula and offer practical guidance for implementing project-based learning within the Indonesian Merdeka Curriculum.

Abstract

Higher education institutions (HEIs) are under growing pressure to change their curricula in order to promote sustainability, creativity, and equity in an educational environment that is changing quickly due to new trends and labor demands. The issue is that the Khmer HEI faculty members continue to struggle to undertake meaningful curricular change. Studies on the impact of transformational leadership on curriculum reform in HEIs are scarce in the literature, despite the expanding corpus of research on curriculum implementation. This fundamental qualitative study aims to investigate the effects of transformational leadership on curricular reform among faculty members in the Khmer HEIs. The theoretical frameworks employed in this study were: (i) change leadership theory; and (ii) reconceptualist curriculum theory. The purpose of this study was to investigate how transformational leadership behaviors and methods affect curriculum reform in the Khmer HEIs. Twenty-five people were chosen to make up the sample from the target demographic of the Khmer HEI faculty members using purposeful sampling. Each participant had to meet three requirements for inclusion: they had to be employed at the research location for at least three years, be knowledgeable about curriculum reform, and have a theoretical grasp of transformational leadership. Semi-structured interview techniques were used to gather the data, and the NVivo was used to analyze it using Braun and Clarke’s (2019) theme analysis methodology. This study illustrated the beneficial effects of transformational leadership behaviors and techniques on curriculum reform in the Khmer HEIs. The results demonstrated that through enhancing engagement and communication, boosting support, promoting diversity, and facilitating knowledge sharing and collaboration, transformational leadership behaviors and techniques helped the Khmer HEIs alter their curricula. The findings of this study may help policymakers and educational leaders implement successful leadership models to assist curriculum reform by leading to better academic results and institutional change in higher education.

Abstract

The rapid digitalization of the marketplace has created both opportunities and challenges for cultural heritage products, particularly ethnic accessories. While digital platforms expand market access, they also increase the risk of cultural commodification, where traditional meanings are reduced to aesthetic values. This study aims to examine the influence of self-transcendence on purchase decisions for ethnic accessories and to investigate the mediating role of Perceived Customer Design Thinking (PCDT) within the framework of Consumer Culture Theory (CCT). A quantitative explanatory research design was employed using a purposive sampling technique. Data were collected through an online survey involving 407 consumers of the Subeng Klasik brand in Indonesia. The collected data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with SmartPLS software. The results demonstrate that self-transcendence has a positive and significant effect on PCDT (? = 0.430, p < 0.001) and purchase decisions (? = 0.313, p < 0.001). Furthermore, PCDT significantly influences purchase decisions (? = 0.343, p < 0.001). The mediation analysis reveals that PCDT partially mediates the relationship between self-transcendence and purchase decisions (? = 0.147, p < 0.001). These findings indicate that consumers who possess stronger values of universalism and benevolence are more likely to appreciate authentic cultural design processes and subsequently make purchasing decisions toward ethnic accessories. The study contributes to the extension of Consumer Culture Theory by introducing PCDT as a cognitive-emotional mechanism that bridges abstract cultural values and tangible economic behavior. Practically, the findings suggest that cultural heritage brands should emphasize authentic storytelling and empathetic design strategies to enhance consumer engagement and sustainable purchasing behavior in the digital era.

Abstract

The increasingly dynamic work environment driven by digital transformation, technological disruption, and evolving career demands has made career adaptability a critical capability for employees navigating uncertainty and change. This study examines how inclusive leadership shapes career adaptability through the sequential mediating roles of psychological safety and thriving at work. Using a quantitative explanatory design, data were collected from 200 employees across various industries in Indonesia through purposive sampling and analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with SmartPLS. The findings show that inclusive leadership significantly enhances psychological safety, thriving at work, and career adaptability both directly and indirectly. Psychological safety and thriving at work both serve as significant mediators, with psychological safety emerging as the stronger mediating mechanism, as reflected by its larger indirect effect on career adaptability compared to thriving at work. Most importantly, this study confirms that inclusive leadership contributes to career adaptability through a sequential process in which employees first feel psychologically safe, then experience greater learning and vitality at work, and ultimately become more capable of adapting to changing career demands. Together, these mechanisms explain 62.7% of the variance in career adaptability. The findings highlight that employees’ ability to adapt does not develop in isolation; rather, it is shaped by everyday workplace experiences and interactions with their leaders. When leaders are open, approachable, and supportive, employees are more likely to feel safe, continue learning, and grow in their careers. For organizations, these findings suggest that developing inclusive leadership should go hand in hand with creating a psychologically safe work environment. Future research may extend this model by examining additional variables and testing its applicability across different career stages and cultural contexts in Southeast Asia

Abstract

This study examines the adequacy of the Business Judgment Rule (BJR) as a legal protection mechanism for directors of State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs) against corruption criminal liability arising from corporate action decisions. The issue is significant because SOE directors in Indonesia often face criminal prosecution when high-value business decisions result in financial losses, particularly in transactions involving acquisitions, mergers, divestments, or restructuring. Although Law Number 1 of 2025 has formally codified the BJR through Article 9F, its effectiveness remains uncertain due to the continuing tension between corporate law, state finance doctrine, and anti-corruption enforcement. This research employs normative or doctrinal legal research by analysing statutes, court decisions, legal doctrines, and relevant scholarly literature. The study uses statutory, conceptual, and case approaches, supported by grammatical, systematic, and teleological interpretation. The findings show that Article 9F provides only qualified protection, not absolute immunity, because directors must prove the absence of fault or negligence, good faith and prudence, no conflict of interest, and efforts to prevent losses. However, the protection remains inadequate in practice. The provision still contains multi-interpretable terms, while the legal status of SOE assets and the public-law position of SOE directors remain contested, especially after the deletion of Article 9G by Law Number 16 of 2025. Law enforcement institutions also tend to begin from the premise of state financial loss rather than first assessing whether the decision satisfies the BJR threshold. Consequently, the BJR functions as preventive protection only de jure, but often becomes merely repressive protection in court proceedings. This study contributes to doctrinal scholarship by showing that codification alone cannot ensure legal certainty. It recommends binding judicial guidance and mandatory independent legal audits for corporate actions to operationalise the BJR as a predictable preventive safeguard.

Abstract

Achievement Goals Theory (AGT) is focused on individuals’ motivation and goal-pursuit behavior to achieve attainable targets. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the validity and reliability of the AGT scale among Indonesian college students. Participants in this study included 220 students sampled using non-probability sampling. The Elliot’s Achievement Goals Questionnaire-Revised (AGQ-R) was used to measure participants’ beliefs about mastery-goal, mastery-avoidance, performance-goal, and performance-avoidance goals with three items on each subscale. Concurrent validity, Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) and Rasch measurement model were carried out. Subsequently, Cronbach's Alpha, composite reliability were used to test reliability. The result showed that the three-factor model was the most appropriate representation as goodness of fit indexes ?2 (166) = 202.498, p = .0000, RMSEA = 0.045, 90% CI = 0.051? 4.493, probability RMSEA = 2.227, CFI =1.000, TLI = 1.000, SRMR = 0.056. AGQ-R was shown to be a valid and reliable instrument to be used on students in Indonesia. The three-factor model was the most appropriate representation, as well as a valid and reliable instrument to measure achievement goals in the sample of students in Indonesia. This model consisted of mastery and performance goals, while mastery-avoidance and performance-avoidance were combined into one domain. This validated psychometric instrument use to assess student motivation and design culturally-aligned interventions in the higher education and allow a development for teaching strategies that support student engagement and academic success.

Abstract

This study examines the reconstruction of public accountability in evidence management within law enforcement institutions through a relational–systemic governance perspective. The study employs a qualitative case study approach conducted at the Public Prosecutor’s Office of Palembang. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and document analysis involving prosecutors, evidence officers, administrative personnel, and institutional supervisors directly engaged in evidence management processes. The analysis focused on four principal accountability dimensions consisting of actors, objects, forums, and interaction mechanisms. The results reveal that accountability practices in evidence management remain predominantly procedural, hierarchical, and compliance-oriented. Accountability mechanisms mainly emphasize administrative reporting, inventory control, and procedural conformity, while broader dimensions such as transparency, public trust, collaborative governance, responsiveness, and organizational learning have not yet been optimally integrated. The findings further show that fragmented coordination among institutional actors, limited participatory accountability forums, and rigid bureaucratic communication mechanisms weaken accountability effectiveness and reduce institutional adaptability. This study develops the Relational–Systemic Accountability Model Based on Public Service (ARS–PP Model), which integrates collaborative institutional responsibility, public value orientation, participatory accountability forums, and adaptive interaction mechanisms into a unified accountability framework. The findings suggest that accountability effectiveness in evidence management depends on institutional integration, collaborative governance capacity, adaptive coordination systems, and public-oriented governance transformation.

Abstract

This study aims to systematically map the intellectual landscape of digital leadership in higher education through a comprehensive bibliometric analysis. As higher education institutions undergo accelerated digital transformation, understanding of how digital leadership has evolved, which themes dominate scholarly discourse, and where research gaps lie becomes crucial for both academic and institutional development. Using the Scopus database, 158 relevant documents from 2016 to mid-2025 were analyzed through Biblioshiny, VOS viewer, and Biblioplot to identify research trends, influential authors and institutions, and emerging thematic clusters. The results indicate that digital leadership is an increasingly relevant yet fragmented field, with dominant themes such as digital transformation, e-leadership, digital literacy, and emotional intelligence. Influential contributions have come from scholars and institutions in Europe and Southeast Asia, with the University of Patras and the University of Malaya emerging as key knowledge hubs. Thematic evolution analysis reveals a gradual shift from technology-focused leadership to more human-centered frameworks that prioritize organizational culture, emotional intelligence, and sustainability. Co-occurrence and overlay visualizations further highlight promising but underexplored areas such as principal digital leadership, digital citizenship, and regional perspectives, particularly in Africa and Asia. This study recommends that future research expands its focus to include interdisciplinary approaches and more diverse cultural contexts.
