Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study aims to assess the impact of implementing a multicultural problem-based learning model and prior knowledge on students' tolerance attitudes in the Citizenship Education course. Methodology: The sampling technique was carried out using cluster random sampling to determine the experimental and control classes. Data collection methods included tests and questionnaires. Tests were used to collect data on prior knowledge, while questionnaires were used to collect data on students’ tolerance attitudes. Data analysis was conducted descriptively and inferentially. Inferential analysis employed a two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) 2 x 2. Main Findings: The results of the analysis indicate that the implementation of a multicultural problem-based learning model and prior knowledge affect students' tolerance attitudes in the citizenship course. Novelty/Originality of this study: The novelty of this research lies in the integration of two aspects that are rarely explicitly combined: multiculturalism as a socio-cultural framework and prior knowledge as a cognitive aspect in the assessment of tolerance attitudes. This approach produces a more comprehensive assessment instrument compared to previous studies.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study aims to describe the implementation of authentic assessment of literacy and numeracy based on local wisdom in elementary schools in Ternate City. Methodology: A mixed methods approach was employed involving both qualitative and quantitative data collection. The participants were 200 fifth-grade students from four schools Elementary School 1, Elementary School 2, Islamic Elementary School Nurul Hasan, and Islamic Elementary School Fathul Munir selected proportionally. Data were gathered through classroom observations, documentation, and authentic tasks integrated with local cultural contexts. Qualitative data were analyzed thematically, while descriptive statistics were used for quantitative analysis. Main Findings: The findings reveal that authentic assessment based on local wisdom in Ternate has not yet been systematically implemented in literacy and numeracy learning. However, several innovative teacher practices emerged, such as using the Ternate language for numeracy tasks, conducting literacy activities through interviews with market vendors, and applying mathematical concepts in real-life contexts like market transactions. These practices effectively connected students’ cultural experiences with learning objectives, enhancing engagement and conceptual understanding. Novelty/Originality of this study: The novelty of this study lies in integrating Ternate’s local wisdom as a contextual foundation for authentic literacy and numeracy assessment, bridging the gap between assessment theory and culturally grounded educational practice. The study contributes to the development of context-sensitive assessment instruments that promote equity, relevance, and cultural identity in education. Furthermore, it provides empirical evidence supporting culturally responsive pedagogy as a strategy for improving learning outcomes in diverse local contexts.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: Character education is a strategic agenda in Indonesia’s nation-building, particularly in responding to globalization, moral degradation, and youth intolerance. Within secondary education, religious extracurricular organizations such as the Mosque Youth Association (Ikatan Remaja Masjid) play a vital role in fostering religiosity while strengthening nationalism. This study investigates the role of the Mosque Youth Association in cultivating nationalist-religious character among students in three high schools in Bandung. Methodology: Using a qualitative case study approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, document analysis, and field notes. Seventeen respondents were selected purposively: school principals, association mentors, leaders, members, government officials, and academic experts. Data analysis employed Miles and Huberman’s interactive model data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing validated through triangulation of sources, techniques, and time. Main Findings: The findings indicate that the Mosque Youth Association functions as a behavioral laboratory, shaping students’ nationalist-religious character through regular activities such as religious studies, congregational prayers, social service, and leadership training. Consistent habit formation occurs through positive reinforcement (recognition, trust, leadership opportunities) and negative reinforcement (warnings, social sanctions). Key challenges include fluctuating participation, limited resources, repetitive content, and digital demands addressed through program innovation, collaboration, and technology use. Novelty/Originality of this study: The study concludes that character development through the Mosque Youth Association aligns with behavioristic learning theory and provides insights for reinforcement-based character education compatible with the Merdeka Curriculum and the Pancasila Student Profile.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: Islamic education plays a vital role in shaping students’ character and spirituality, particularly through Tahfiz Quran programs that emphasize not only memorization but also moral and spiritual internalization. This study aims to explore effective strategies for internalizing Islamic values through Quran memorization at three Islamic junior high schools in Deli Serdang. Methodology: This qualitative phenomenological study explores strategies for internalizing Islamic values through Quran memorization at three Islamic junior high schools in Deli Serdang: Junior High School Jabal Noor, Al-Hijrah, and Nurul Ilmi. Data were collected via observation, interviews, and documentation. Main Findings: Islamic values occurs through various strategies, including habituation, exemplary role modeling, talaqqi (direct recitation), muraja’ah (systematic review), reinforcement systems, and active parental involvement. These approaches effectively cultivate students’ faith, worship discipline, morality, and social responsibility in daily life. Supporting factors include teachers’ pedagogical competence, strong religious school culture, and parental collaboration, while challenges arise from limited time, digital distractions, and inconsistent student motivation. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study lies in its integration of classical Tahfiz pedagogy with a modern character education framework, offering a new model for value internalization that harmonizes traditional Islamic learning with contemporary educational demands. This research contributes theoretically by bridging spiritual formation and moral psychology, and practically by proposing a holistic Tahfiz-based model adaptable to modern schooling contexts. The study concludes that Tahfiz Quran, when integrated with reflective understanding, technological awareness, and community engagement, can effectively strengthen Qur’anic character and moral integrity among adolescents in the digital era.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study analyzes the direct and indirect effects of instructional supervision by the head of madrasah, organizational culture, and self-discipline on the performance of Madrasah Aliyah teachers in Gayo Lues Regency. Methodology: Using a quantitative approach with a causal model and involving 84 teachers selected through the Krejcie–Morgan sampling technique, this research employs path analysis to examine the structural relationships among the variables. Main Findings: The findings indicate that organizational culture has the strongest influence on teachers’ self-discipline (ρ = 0.436), while instructional supervision exerts a smaller but positive effect (ρ = 0.132). Teacher performance is significantly affected by instructional supervision (ρ = 0.597), organizational culture (ρ = 0.408), and self-discipline (ρ = 0.324). Although instructional supervision and organizational culture also influence teacher performance indirectly through self-discipline, these mediating effects are relatively small—0.044 and 0.132 respectively. The model fit analysis confirms that the proposed causal structure aligns well with the empirical data. This study contributes to educational management literature by offering a comprehensive model integrating supervision, culture, and self-discipline, and by establishing self-discipline as a partial mediator between organizational culture and teacher performance. Novelty/Originality of this study: The findings highlight the importance of strengthening supervisory practices, cultivating a positive organizational culture, and enhancing teacher discipline to improve professional performance in madrasahs. Overall, the study provides empirical evidence that can support the development of strategic policies to enhance teacher quality and accountability in Islamic educational institutions.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study investigates teacher quality management in Integrated Islamic Kindergartens in Central Aceh Regency by examining the processes of planning, organizing, implementation, and supervision across Islamic Kindergartens. Methodology: Using a qualitative multisite approach, data were gathered through interviews, observations, and document analysis, and analyzed through systematic data condensation, display, and verification. Main Findings: The findings show that quality planning is guided by a synergy between institutional vision, mission, motto, and objectives with national education standards and JSIT (Jaringan Sekolah Islam Terpadu) guidelines, resulting in a balanced emphasis on academic competence, professional skills, and spiritual formation. Organizational quality is sustained through transparent structures, measurable task distribution, coordinated teamwork, and standardized operating procedures. Recruitment applies competency-based selection enriched with Islamic values, prioritizing Qur’anic mastery, character integrity, pedagogical expertise, and emotional maturity. Teacher development is implemented through Islamic andragogy, integrating professional training with spiritual nurturing via halaqah, mentoring, and routine religious studies. Supervision adopts a holistic model that evaluates academic performance, pedagogical practice, and spiritual consistency to ensure continuous improvement. Novelty/Originality of this study: The novelty of this study lies in the formulation of a hybrid teacher quality management model that fuses national quality assurance frameworks with JSIT principles, positioning moral goodness as the foundation, pedagogical quality as the institutional output, and educational excellence as the long-term goal. This model offers a new theoretical framework and practical reference for enhancing teacher quality in faith-based early childhood education institutions.
