Abstract

This study explores the intersection of educational management, societal life, and educational motivation within inland Buddhist communities in Lampung and South Sumatra Provinces, Indonesia. It examines how these communities integrate their cultural and religious identities into educational practices and management, shaping their motivation for learning despite geographical and motivational challenges. The Buddhist way of life, rooted in the teachings of the Buddha, fosters self-management and mindfulness, which influence their educational aspirations. Living in isolated inland settlements, these communities develop unique self-management skills through practices like six concords and mindfulness, which enhance their capacity for education. A quantitative survey method was employed, involving 210 respondents selected based on specific quality criteria. Data were collected using questionnaires and analyzed through path analysis with SPSS 26. The findings reveal significant relationships between mindful living, the six Buddhist concords, self-management, and educational motivation. The study underscores that integrating community life situations, cultural values, and Buddhist teachings into educational management policies can enhance educational motivation. The research suggests that education policies should align with societal contexts to promote higher education standards while fostering self-management skills. By leveraging Buddhist principles and mindfulness, these communities can transform their views on education, overcoming barriers associated with their geographic and motivational constraints. This study highlights the role of cultural and religious values in educational development and provides actionable recommendations for tailoring educational management to community needs, fostering societal progress and deeper engagement with education.

Abstract

Given the increasing demand for high-quality educational services, especially in developing regions, understanding the leadership factors that contribute to service enhancement is crucial. This study investigates the influence of instructional leadership on the quality of school services in vocational high schools, highlighting its significance in the broader context of educational improvement. The study specifically aims to examine how instructional leadership impacts various dimensions of school service quality, with a focus on vocational education settings in Bireuen Regency, Aceh, Indonesia. Employing a quantitative approach, data were collected from 80 vocational high school teachers and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The findings reveal that the instructional leadership indicator most strongly associated with improved service quality is the leader’s orientation toward a clear vision and mission. This dimension significantly influences the ‘tangibility’ aspect of school services, indicating that visionary leadership is closely linked to improved physical facilities and resources, thereby shaping teachers’ perceptions of service quality. These results underscore the strategic role of leadership in creating an environment conducive to quality education. The study offers practical implications for policymakers and school administrators, advocating for leadership development programs that focus on vision-oriented management and sustained professional growth. Future studies are recommended to explore complementary variables such as school climate, teacher motivation, and institutional policies to build a more comprehensive model for enhancing school service quality.

Abstract

The low competency of teachers in Indonesia indicates the need to improve teacher quality through self-renewal led by principals; however, the current fulfillment of teacher needs still prioritizes quantity over quality, and many teachers face obstacles in achieving self-renewal. This study describes the principal's learning supervision strategy in fostering teacher self-renewal capacity. This research method uses qualitative data collection techniques through observation, interviews, and documentation, involving 7 informants: the principal, 4 teachers, and 1 staff member at Public Elementary School (SDN) 035 Soka, Bandung City Indonesia, selected through purposive sampling. Data analysis in this study used the Miles & Huberman model and the data processing employed Nvivo 14 application. The results of this study indicate that the principal implements collaborative strategies in every stage of learning supervision to foster teacher self-renewal capacity. Teachers at SDN 035 Soka have teacher self-renewal capacity, which can be seen from their ability to continue learning and adapting to educational developments by improving their performance through exploitation, exploration, absorption, integration, and leadership. This research provides important implications for the development of learning supervision strategies and the enhancement of teachers' self-renewal capacity. These findings can serve as a reference for school principals to support teachers' professional development and improve the quality of teaching in schools.

Abstract

The rapid integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming educational management worldwide, including in Indonesian higher education. This study aimed to explore how AI can optimize administrative processes, enhance decision-making, and improve institutional efficiency in this context. Using an exploratory case study design, data were collected from ten participants comprising university administrators, faculty members, students, and IT staff through semi-structured interviews and focus group discussions (FGDs). Thematic analysis was employed to identify patterns and themes within the data. The findings revealed that AI significantly improves efficiency in enrollment, scheduling, and grading while supporting data-driven decision-making through predictive analytics. Despite these benefits, challenges such as data privacy concerns, cultural resistance, and insufficient infrastructure were highlighted as barriers to effective adoption. Participants emphasized the need for tailored AI solutions, robust ethical frameworks, and comprehensive stakeholder engagement to address these challenges. This research concludes that AI has transformative potential in educational management but requires context-sensitive implementation strategies. A limitation of this study is its general exploration of AI without examining specific tools used by participants, suggesting a need for future research to investigate the impact of distinct AI technologies in educational settings. These findings provide actionable insights for policymakers and institutional leaders seeking to leverage AI to enhance higher education management in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study explores the determinants of entrepreneurial intentions among vocational high school students, emphasizing the roles of entrepreneurial education, family support, and school support, with entrepreneurial self-efficacy as a mediating variable. Using a quantitative research approach, data were collected from 214 students enrolled in the Business and Marketing Department of a vocational high school in Indonesia. The results show that school support has a significant direct influence on entrepreneurial intentions, while entrepreneurial self-efficacy serves as a crucial mediator between external support systems and students’ entrepreneurial aspirations. Notably, although school support exerts the strongest direct effect, its mediated effect through self-efficacy is comparatively smaller. These findings highlight the importance of developing robust educational frameworks, enhancing family encouragement, and strengthening institutional support to cultivate entrepreneurial mindsets among vocational students. The findings of this study have several practical implications, including the need for curriculum development, targeted teacher training in entrepreneurship education, and fostering collaboration between families and schools. This study contributes to the existing literature by proposing a comprehensive model of entrepreneurial intention formation within vocational education, particularly relevant to emerging economies.
