Abstract

General Background: Stylistics examines linguistic variation and expressive forms in literary and rhetorical discourse. Specific Background: Displacement is a central concept in Arabic stylistics, reflecting deviation from conventional language use to create aesthetic and semantic depth. Knowledge Gap: Despite extensive theoretical discussions, there is limited integration between classical Arabic rhetoric and modern stylistic analysis in examining displacement. Aims: This study aims to analyze the concept of stylistic displacement within Arabic discourse by exploring its linguistic, rhetorical, and critical dimensions. Results: The analysis shows that displacement operates as a key mechanism in shaping meaning through deviation, metaphor, and structural variation, supported by examples from classical and modern texts. It also reveals the continuity between traditional rhetorical concepts and contemporary stylistic frameworks. Novelty: The study bridges classical Arabic rhetorical theory with modern stylistic approaches, offering a comprehensive perspective on displacement. Implications: The findings contribute to a deeper understanding of linguistic creativity and provide a framework for analyzing literary texts within both traditional and modern critical contexts. Keywords: Stylistic Displacement, Arabic Stylistics, Rhetorical Analysis, Linguistic Deviation, Literary Criticism Key Findings Highlights Conceptual link established between classical rhetoric and modern analysis Deviation mechanisms shape semantic and aesthetic expression Analytical framework supports interpretation of literary texts

Abstract

General Background: Teacher leadership plays a strategic role in shaping effective learning interactions and fostering student motivation and participation. Specific Background: Democratic leadership in classroom settings emphasizes student involvement, two-way communication, and shared decision-making, aligning with student-centered learning approaches. Knowledge Gap: Limited empirical attention has been given to how democratic leadership practices operate in Madrasah Tsanawiyah contexts and how they relate to both intrinsic and extrinsic student motivation. Aims: This study aims to analyze the implementation of teacher democratic leadership and examine its relationship with student learning motivation and participation. Results: Using a qualitative phenomenological approach with observations, interviews, and documentation involving teachers and students, the findings reveal that democratic leadership is consistently applied through student participation in decision-making, active discussions, and varied instructional methods. These practices are associated with increased student confidence, engagement, motivation, and active participation, alongside improved academic outcomes. Both intrinsic and extrinsic motivation are fostered through supportive classroom environments, rewards, and participatory learning strategies. Novelty: This study positions democratic leadership not merely as a leadership style but as an integrated pedagogical practice embedded in classroom learning processes. Implications: The findings suggest that adopting democratic leadership can support participatory, student-centered learning environments and can be contextually applied across diverse educational settings, although generalization should consider contextual limitations. Highlights• Student engagement increases through participatory classroom decision-making• Confidence and autonomy develop via collaborative learning practices• Academic performance shows improvement in previously low-achieving learners KeywordsTeacher Democratic Leadership; Student Learning Motivation; Student Participation; Intrinsic And Extrinsic Motivation; Qualitative Phenomenological Study

Abstract

General Background Early childhood education requires a comprehensive curriculum that supports children’s cognitive, affective, psychomotor, moral, spiritual, health, nutritional, care, protection, and welfare needs. Specific Background In Islamic early childhood education, the PIAUD curriculum is expected to adapt to modern realities while maintaining Islamic values through child-centered and faith-based learning. Knowledge Gap However, the implementation of holistic integrative curriculum practices remains constrained by limited teacher competence, inadequate facilities, weak coordination, and the lack of practical examples for learning implementation. Aims This study aims to collect and analyze previous literature on the development of the holistic integrative PIAUD curriculum. Results The literature shows that holistic integrative PIAUD is necessary because early childhood learning requires comprehensive services involving education, health and nutrition, parenting, protection, and welfare. The findings also indicate that teachers, parents, communities, stakeholders, and academic actors have complementary roles in supporting curriculum implementation. Curriculum development can be carried out through guidebook preparation, expert validation, revision, and continuous evaluation. Novelty This study synthesizes recent literature to position holistic integrative PIAUD as a collaborative curriculum framework that connects Islamic values, child-centered learning, and multisector participation. Implications The findings provide a conceptual basis for strengthening curriculum planning, teacher readiness, institutional collaboration, and child-friendly Islamic early childhood education practices. Highlights• Comprehensive services include education, health, nutrition, care, protection, and welfare.• Teachers, parents, communities, and stakeholders share implementation responsibilities.• Guidebooks, expert validation, revision, and evaluation structure curriculum development.

Abstract

General Background Teacher professionalism is central to national educational quality because policy aspirations are tested through classroom learning and long-term citizen development. Specific Background Indonesia has invested in certification, professional education, competency standards, professional organizations, digital platforms, and development programs, yet these instruments remain unevenly connected across recruitment, induction, appraisal, welfare, career pathways, leadership, and local governance. Knowledge Gap Existing teacher-quality initiatives are often treated as isolated programs rather than an integrated policy architecture that links equity, expertise, ecosystem support, and digital governance. Aims This article formulates the 3E 1D architecture as a coherent conceptual-operational framework for developing teacher quality and competence toward Golden Indonesia 2045. Results The integrative policy review of 60 international, Indonesian, regulatory, and theoretical sources produced four findings: teacher reforms are present but weakly integrated; compliance-oriented policy logic needs repositioning toward professional-capital development; each pillar requires concrete instruments, including a teacher-equity index, practice-based micro-credentials, professional learning communities, district coaching systems, strengthened professional organizations, and interoperable teacher portfolios; and implementation depends on data readiness, regional capacity, workload reduction, sustainable financing, and ethical digital governance. Novelty The article reframes teacher policy as a multi-level architecture that connects national standards, local support, school leadership, teacher wellbeing, professional organizations, and evidence-based professional learning. Implications Policymakers can use the 3E 1D model as a policy-design checklist, while future studies should validate it through Delphi inquiry, policy simulation, and pilot implementation across diverse contexts. Highlights • Reform instruments exist, but integration across governance levels remains weak.• Professional capital requires equity indexes, micro-credentials, learning communities, coaching, organizational support, and interoperable portfolios.• National scaling requires empirical validation, regional readiness, workload reduction, sustainable financing, and ethical data governance.

Abstract

General Background: Tourism has increasingly been recognized as a strategic sector for economic diversification, particularly in economies seeking alternatives to dependence on a single source of income. Specific Background: Iraq possesses diverse tourism resources; however, tourism investment levels remain relatively modest despite the sector’s development potential. Knowledge Gap: Limited evidence exists regarding the relationship between tourism investment, infrastructure development, macroeconomic stability, and tourism demand in Iraq during periods characterized by structural and external shocks. Aims: This study aims to examine the correlation between tourism investment and inbound tourism demand in Iraq during the period 2018–2024 and to identify the development gap between tourism resources and actual investment performance. Results: Using a quantitative analytical approach and a multiple regression model, the study found a significant positive relationship between tourism investment and tourism demand. Tourism demand exhibited low elasticity toward traditional investments but responded more strongly to high-quality investments. The findings also indicate that stability is the most influential factor affecting tourism demand and investment incentives. Novelty: The study incorporates a stability indicator to isolate the effects of crises and instability within the tourism demand model. Implications: The findings suggest that improving investment quality, strengthening infrastructure, and maintaining political and economic stability are essential for supporting sustainable tourism demand growth and tourism sector development in Iraq. Keywords: Tourism Investment, Tourism Demand, Infrastructure Development, Economic Stability, Iraq Key Findings HighlightsTourism demand responded more strongly to qualitative investment than conventional investment patterns.Positive statistical association was identified between capital allocation and visitor arrivals.Security and economic conditions emerged as the dominant determinant of sector performance.
