Abstract

Teacher professionalism is widely recognized as a critical determinant of educational quality, yet empirical evidence indicates persistent gaps between expected professional competencies and their actual enactment during teaching practice. This study aims to analyze the professional competencies of Teacher Professional Education students during their teaching practicum at State Senior High School 8 Pontianak, with particular attention to how these competencies are developed and manifested in real classroom contexts. Employing a qualitative descriptive-analytic approach with a case study design, data were collected through classroom observations, semi-structured interviews, and document analysis, and analyzed using interactive thematic analysis. The results reveal that while students demonstrated adequate professional conduct and basic instructional competence, their competencies were largely procedural, with limited pedagogical adaptability, critical reflection, and collaborative professionalism. Classroom management and instructional planning were implemented formally yet often lacked responsiveness to students’ learning dynamics. Reflective practice and mentoring interactions were found to be insufficiently developed, constraining deeper professional learning. The study concludes that teaching practice provides an essential foundation for professional competence but remains suboptimal in fostering reflective, adaptive, and collaborative dimensions of professionalism. This research contributes scientifically by offering context-specific empirical evidence on practicum-based competency development and by emphasizing the need to reconceptualize teaching practice as a structured professional learning space.

Abstract

This study examines the aesthetic transformation of Zapin dance within the perspective of Malay-Javanese culture in the Nusantara region. The research aims to explore how the interaction between Arab, Malay, and Javanese cultural elements shapes the form, meaning, and aesthetic values of Zapin dance. This study employs a qualitative descriptive approach using ethnocoreological methods. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with dance practitioners, direct observation of performances, and literature review. The analysis focuses on movement patterns, costumes, musical elements, and song lyrics, interpreted through a cultural and aesthetic framework. The results reveal that Zapin dance has undergone significant transformation influenced by cultural interactions along maritime trade routes. The dance demonstrates a synthesis of Arab rhythmic structures, Malay aesthetic sensibilities, and Javanese cultural expressions, which are reflected in its movement, costume design, and musical composition. The findings indicate that Zapin dance is not only an artistic performance but also a cultural medium that embodies values of identity, morality, and social harmony. This transformation reflects the dynamic process of cultural adaptation and continuity within Malay-Javanese society.
