Abstract

This study defines ecotheology as a contextual educational paradigm. The paradigm is transformative and it aims to respond to the global climate crisis. The study focuses on Catholic religious higher education institutions in Indonesia. The study applied a conceptual-critical approach using multisite analysis across 13 Pastoral Colleges. The study explored theoretical foundations, pedagogical principles, institutional collaboration models, and designs ecotheological curriculum models that are locally relevant. The findings present ecotheology as a reflection of Christian faith. The reflection emphasizes the relationship between God, humanity, and creation. Ecotheology is implemented through three educational dimensions. The first dimension is scientific knowledge (episteme). The second dimension is moral-affective disposition (ethos). The third dimension is transformational practice (praxis). The implementation of ecotheological paradigms faces structural challenges. These challenges include curriculum fragmentation, limited resources, and conflicts among stakeholders. The study recommends educational policy reform, encourages sustainable and contextual educator capacity building, develop the holistic evaluation instruments. Theoretically, the study enriches the discourse on sustainable education. It introduces a normative dimension. This dimension links spirituality and ethics to ecological action. Practically, the study affirms the viability of ecotheology as a contextual educational paradigm. The paradigm shifts the focus of education. It moves from knowledge transfer to the formation of ecological change agents.

Abstract

Catholic religious education in Catholic Higher Education Institutions (PTAK) plays a strategic role in shaping transformative human resources (HR) amid contemporary challenges. The background of this study arises from the need for HR who are not only intellectually competent but also possess spiritual depth, moral integrity, and a service-oriented mindset. The purpose of this research is to examine how Catholic religious education integrates spirituality and personal development in the formation process of students. Using a qualitative-descriptive approach, data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation studies at Sekolah Tinggi Pastoral Atma Reksa Ende. The findings reveal that Catholic religious education, when contextualized and grounded in Gospel values, is capable of shaping students’ character to be reflective, ethical, and service-ready. The integration of spirituality into the curriculum and campus life strengthens intrinsic motivation, work ethic, and transformative leadership. The conclusion of this study affirms that Catholic religious education makes a significant contribution to the formation of holistic and transformative human resources. The implication is that formation strategies in PTAK must continue to be developed holistically in order to meet the ongoing needs of the Church, society, and the nation.

Abstract

This study examines the intersection of catechesis and ecotheology, a movement promoting a harmonious relationship between God, humanity, and the environment. This alignment is particularly timely, given the Indonesian Ministry of Religious Affairs' 2025 Priority Program aimed at addressing the ecological crisis. Identifying the root of environmental degradation as an anthropocentric worldview that fosters nature’s exploitation, this research advocates for a shift toward a partnership model. Central to this transition is the 2020 Directory for Catechesis (DC), which introduces a novel focus on ecological responsibility in articles 381–384—a theme notably absent in previous directories. Utilizing a qualitative content analysis of the DC 2020 and contemporary literature, the study categorizes and interprets key themes to determine how catechesis reinforces ecotheology. The findings reveal a dual contribution: theoretical and practical. Theoretically, catechesis bolsters the biblical foundations of ecotheology and facilitates a mental shift away from anthropocentrism. Practically, it encourages the habituation of environmentally friendly behaviors and the development of ecological catechetical programs. Ultimately, the study concludes that catechesis is a vital pastoral pathway for fostering spiritual consciousness and sustainable lifestyles. By enriching the discourse on ecotheology through a pastoral lens, this research highlights catechesis as an essential tool for both internal mentality change and concrete environmental action.

Abstract

Flipped classroom adalah model pembelajaran yang membalik pola pembelajaran tradisional, di mana peserta didik mempelajari materi terlebih dahulu secara mandiri sebelum kegiatan kelas digunakan untuk diskusi, latihan, dan pendalaman materi. Model ini meningkatkan kemandirian dan keaktifan belajar serta memungkinkan interaksi yang lebih bermakna antara guru dan peserta didik melalui pemanfaatan waktu kelas yang lebih efektif. Dalam penelitian ini, flipped classroom diujicobakan pada kelas XI A dan B SMA Negeri 1 Noyan Kabupaten Sanggau untuk melihat pengaruhnya terhadap hasil belajar Pendidikan Agama Katolik dan Budi Pekerti, mengingat hasil belajar siswa yang rata-ratanya masih belum mencapai Kriteria Ketuntasan Minimum (KKM). Alat pengumpulan data dalam penelitian ini adalah soal tes yang terdiri dari soal posttest yang sudah diuji validitas dan reliabilitasnya. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa nilai rata-rata posttest kelas kontrol sebesar 69,3 dan nilai rata-rata posttest kelas eksperimen sebesar 73,8. Mengingat data kelas eksperiman tidak normal, maka digunakan uji Mann-Whitney yang menunjukkan nilai Z sebesar -0,918 sehingga dapat disimpulkan bahwa tidak ada pengaruh model pembelajaran flipped classroom terhadap hasil belajar Pendidikan Agama Katolik dan Budi Pekerti peserta didik kelas XI SMAN 1 Noyan. Meski demikian, peserta didik menunjukkan antusiasme tinggi selama mengikuti pembelajaran menggunakan flipped classroom dalam penelitian ini.

Abstract

Today's young generation is referred to as digital natives, a generation closely associated with the use of digital information technology and social media. Those in this generation who are pursuing education are called digital native learners, who have different characteristics and needs from previous generations. To accommodate their characteristics and needs and advance education in the digital age, it is necessary to renew educational methods, namely those based on digital information technology (electronic teaching). Catechesis, as a form of faith education, is no exception to the need for such renewal. Through the digitisation of catechetical content and methods, the Church reaches out to, embraces, and guides the digital native generation to an understanding of the Word of God and the teachings of the Church. Digital catechesis is clear evidence that the Church is realising the adage Ecclesia Semper Reformanda in this digital age. Using qualitative library research methods, the team of authors compiled this paper with the aim of stating that digital catechesis is a tangible manifestation of Ecclesia Semper Reformanda for the digital native generation. The adage Ecclesia Semper Reformanda states that the Church is constantly renewing itself according to the needs of the times, including the digital age.

Abstract

This study aims to examine how the implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum (MC) in Catholic Religious Education (CRE) is being carried out across some Driving Schools (Elementary, Junior, and High School) in Pontianak Municipality. It also aims to uncover the opportunities and challenges for Religious Education teachers in Driving Schools as they become Driving Teachers. The research method is a qualitative approach, with data collected through interviews and documentation from various stakeholders, including principals, teachers, and the Catholic Institutional Guidance and Counseling of Pontianak Municipality. The results show that implementing the Merdeka Curriculum in the Driving Schools (DS) has presented both challenges and opportunities, such as improving teacher competency and adapting to a more flexible curriculum. However, there are obstacles related to conceptual understanding, resource readiness, and school environmental support. These findings provide important insights into strategies and steps that need improvement to ensure the implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum runs more optimally and has a positive impact on learning quality in the Driving Schools that have been removed from it. This study recommends increasing teacher training and mentoring, and strengthening collaboration between schools, as strategic steps going forward.

Abstract

The rapid advancement of digital technology has significantly transformed the educational landscape, particularly in shaping the learning characteristics of Generation Alpha, who grow up in a highly digital, visual, and interactive environment. This condition presents both challenges and opportunities for Catholic Religious Education (CRE), which aims to develop students’ faith, moral values, and spirituality. This study seeks to analyze the learning characteristics of Generation Alpha and formulate pedagogical adaptation strategies for CRE teachers in the digital era. This research employs a qualitative approach using library research methods. Data were collected from relevant academic literature and analyzed descriptively and analytically through conceptual comparison and synthesis. The findings reveal that Generation Alpha tends to learn in fast-paced, visual, interactive, and experience-based ways; however, they also face challenges related to attention span, deep reflection, and spiritual identity formation. Therefore, pedagogical adaptation is required, including wise integration of digital technology, active and participatory learning, strengthening pedagogical relationships, and developing digital-spiritual literacy. The study emphasizes the importance of a digital-spiritual pedagogical model that connects students’ lived experiences with Christian values in a reflective and transformative way.

Abstract

Adolescence is a crucial phase characterized by emotional instability and the search for identity, which often triggers the emergence of deviant behavior in the school environment. This study examines the strategic role of Christian Moral Education as a preventive instrument in mitigating the increase in juvenile delinquency, ranging from disciplinary violations to serious acts such as violence and drug abuse. Using a descriptive qualitative method through in-depth observation and interviews with teachers and students of Catholic Religious Education, this study explores how religious values are implemented in students' daily lives. The findings of the study show that Christian Moral Education has a fundamental role in internalizing the values of love, honesty, and self-control that strengthen the character and accuracy of students' ethical decision-making, especially in the face of the negative impact of the digital era. However, the effectiveness of this education still faces significant challenges, both from internal factors in the form of low student motivation, as well as external factors such as lack of family support and peer pressure. This study concludes that successful adolescent character formation requires holistic synergy between school, family, and social environment, which is integrated with local cultural wisdom and relevant technological approaches.
