Abstract

Mathematics education in Indonesia continues to face challenges, as evidenced by low national rankings in PISA 2022 and ANBK assessments, reflecting persistent gaps in numeracy competency and contextual problem-solving skills among students. This study aimed to examine the effect of numeracy literacy-based learning management and digital media utilization, both partially and simultaneously, on students' perceived mathematics learning outcomes. A quantitative explanatory approach with a correlational design was employed. Data were collected from 163 eighth-grade students selected through proportional random sampling from a population of 275 students across two public junior high schools in Paal Dua District, Manado City, using validated Likert-scale questionnaires analyzed through multiple linear regression. Numeracy literacy-based learning management exerted a positive and significant effect on perceived learning outcomes (β = 0.548, t = 9.512, p < 0.001), and digital media utilization also had a positive and significant effect (β = 0.333, t = 5.769, p < 0.001). Simultaneously, both independent variables significantly explained 57.2% of the variance in students' perceived mathematics learning outcomes (F = 106.820, p < 0.001). Numeracy literacy-based learning management was identified as the more dominant predictor. Integrating numeracy literacy-oriented learning management with effective digital media utilization constitutes a relevant and essential strategy for improving the quality of mathematics learning in 21st-century education. Educational practitioners and policymakers should prioritize teacher professional development that emphasizes both numeracy literacy integration and purposeful digital media use to enhance student mathematics achievement.

Abstract

Science laboratory management and the availability of educational facilities are critical factors in supporting effective science learning; however, suboptimal laboratory utilization and limited instructional resources remain persistent challenges in many Indonesian schools, particularly at the junior secondary level. This study aims to analyze the influence of science laboratory management and educational facilities on students' learning interest at public junior high schools in Paal 2 District, Manado City. A quantitative ex post facto approach was employed, with data collected through validated structured questionnaires from 163 students selected using proportional random sampling from a population of 275 Grade VIII students. Data were analyzed using multiple linear regression with partial (t-test) and simultaneous (F-test) hypothesis testing. The results demonstrated that: (1) science laboratory management had a positive and significant influence on students' learning interest (β = 0.452, t = 10.986, p < 0.001); (2) educational facilities had a positive and significant influence on students' learning interest (β = 0.356, t = 5.071, p < 0.001); and (3) both variables simultaneously exerted a significant effect on learning interest (F = 78.235, p < 0.001), collectively explaining 49.4% of the variance (R² = 0.494). Laboratory management emerged as the stronger predictor (standardized β = 0.620) compared to educational facilities (standardized β = 0.286). These findings indicate that well-managed laboratories combined with adequate educational facilities are essential to fostering higher levels of student interest in science learning, implying that school administrators and policymakers should prioritize systematic laboratory management alongside facility improvement to enhance the quality of science education.

Abstract

Teacher performance is a critical determinant of educational quality and plays a central role in achieving national educational goals, yet it remains suboptimal in many school settings due to weak leadership and organizational dynamics. This study aims to empirically analyze the influence of the principal's transformational leadership and organizational culture—both partially and simultaneously—on junior high school teacher performance in Paal Dua District, Manado City. A quantitative approach with an associative ex-post facto method was employed, with data collected from 85 teachers selected via proportionate stratified random sampling from a population of 108 using the Slovin formula; data were gathered through Likert-scale questionnaires tested for validity and reliability. The multiple linear regression analysis yielded the equation Y = −0.317 + 0.495X1 + 0.432X2. Transformational leadership had a significant positive partial effect on teacher performance (t = 8.794, Sig. = 0.001 < 0.05), as did organizational culture (t = 6.853, Sig. < 0.001). Simultaneously, both variables produced a significant combined effect (F = 61.679, Sig. = 0.001 < 0.05), with a coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.601, indicating that 60.1% of variation in teacher performance is explained by the two predictors. It is concluded that the synergy between an inspiring principal and a conducive organizational culture is the primary determinant in optimizing teacher professionalism. These findings imply that educational policymakers should integrate transformational leadership development with organizational culture strengthening as a unified strategy for improving teacher performance in Indonesian junior high schools.

Abstract

Digital transformation has altered the expectations placed on school leadership, instructional practice, and professional performance in vocational education. In this context, schools are increasingly required to integrate information and communication technology into management, communication, supervision, and classroom learning. This article develops a journal version of Jevie Jane Maliangkay’s master’s thesis on the influence of principals’ e-leadership and digital competence on teacher performance at SMKS Kristen 1 Tomohon, North Sulawesi, Indonesia. The purpose of the study was to examine: (1) the effect of principals’ e-leadership on teacher performance, (2) the effect of digital competence on teacher performance, and (3) the simultaneous effect of both variables on teacher performance. A quantitative explanatory design with a causal associative approach was employed. The study was conducted at SMKS Kristen 1 Tomohon from December 2025 to February 2026. Based on the detailed methodology and results sections of the thesis, the respondents comprised 30 teachers and the study used total sampling. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and analyzed using simple and multiple linear regression supported by SPSS. The data met the main analytical assumptions, including normality, linearity, and absence of multicollinearity. The results show that principals’ e-leadership had a positive and significant effect on teacher performance, with an effective contribution of about 14.3%. Digital competence also had a positive and significant effect and emerged as the dominant predictor. Simultaneously, the two independent variables significantly influenced teacher performance, with a coefficient of determination of about 59.6%, indicating that more than half of the variance in teacher performance could be explained by the model. The findings affirm that school digital leadership and digital competence are not merely technical matters; they are strategic determinants of instructional quality, work effectiveness, and professional accountability. The article argues that strengthening digital leadership, building teacher capacity, and embedding technology into organizational culture are central to improving performance in vocational secondary schools.

Abstract

Abandoned children represent a persistent social problem with long-term implications for educational attainment, psychosocial wellbeing, and the quality of future human resources. This article reformulates a doctoral dissertation into a journal-style paper and examines how the Social Affairs Office of Minahasa Regency designs, implements, and evaluates human resource development strategies for abandoned children from an educational management perspective. The study employed a qualitative descriptive design. Data were generated through in-depth interviews, field observations, and document analysis, then analyzed using the interactive model of Miles and Huberman through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that the strategy has been organized through planning, organizing, actuating, and controlling (POAC), supported by legal mandates and cross-sector coordination with police, women and child protection agencies, local communities, and child welfare institutions. In practice, however, the strategy shows uneven effectiveness. It is relatively strong in basic-needs fulfillment, emergency response, administrative verification, and short-course skills training, but remains weaker in formal education reintegration, sustained psychosocial recovery, family reunification quality, and long-term social integration. Key enabling factors include regulatory support, institutional collaboration, and the existence of non-formal training initiatives, while key barriers include inadequate budget allocation, insufficient qualified social workers, limited facilities, weak outcome-based evaluation, low public participation, and low motivation among many children to re-enter school. The article argues that abandoned children's development should not be treated merely as a welfare intervention but as a long-horizon educational management process. Based on the findings, a strengthened educational management strategy is proposed, integrating measurable educational indicators, competency development for social workers, stronger community participation, digitalized case management, and continuous CIPP-based evaluation. Such a strategy is necessary to transform short-term rescue efforts into sustainable human resource development outcomes.

Abstract

The digitalization of health services has shifted hospital management toward integrated information systems, more accurate data governance, and stronger human resource capability. One of the most consequential changes in this transition is the adoption of Electronic Medical Records (EMR), which replaces fragmented paper-based documentation with digital records that can support continuity of care, patient safety, and managerial efficiency. Yet the success of EMR implementation depends not only on software and infrastructure but also on how hospitals manage education and training for the personnel who use the system. This article develops a journal-style synthesis of a qualitative dissertation on the management of EMR training at Gunung Maria General Hospital, Tomohon, Indonesia. The study focused on four managerial dimensions: planning, organizing, implementation, and evaluation of training. Using a qualitative descriptive design, data were gathered through in-depth interviews, observations, and document analysis involving hospital management, medical personnel, and administrative staff. The findings show that EMR utilization has been constrained by high rates of input error, uneven user competence, inadequate needs analysis, limited continuity in post-training support, and weak supervision and evaluation mechanisms. Although EMR training has been implemented, it has not yet been managed as a systematic competency-based program grounded in continuous improvement. The study further shows that effective EMR utilization requires alignment between training design, organizational support, workflow integration, supervision, and evaluation. Based on these findings, the article proposes an integrated education and training management model that emphasizes competency mapping, adaptive instructional strategies, structured mentoring, ongoing supervision, and periodic evaluation linked to service quality outcomes. The model is expected to reduce human error, improve the accuracy of medical data, strengthen user confidence, and enhance the quality of care. This article contributes to educational management and health information systems literature by demonstrating that digital transformation in hospitals must be supported by a human-centered training system rather than by technology adoption alone.

Abstract

This article develops a journal-style synthesis of Demsi Yohan Lempas's thesis on facilities and infrastructure governance in supporting service performance at the Department of Manpower, Cooperatives, and SMEs of North Minahasa Regency. The study addresses a practical problem in local public administration: regional apparatus organizations are required to deliver faster, more accountable, and increasingly digital services, yet many of the physical and technological assets that support those services remain insufficient, damaged, or administratively managed rather than strategically optimized. Using a qualitative descriptive design, the original thesis collected data through interviews, observation, and documentation involving officials of the department and related asset management actors. This article reorganizes the thesis into an academic journal format modeled after the Sammy IJITE article, while preserving the empirical core of the thesis. The findings show that Regional Government Asset (Barang Milik Daerah/BMD) management has been implemented through planning, procurement, utilization, maintenance, and administration, but it has not yet reached an optimal level. Planning is still not fully based on real service needs, procurement is constrained by budget limitations, utilization is affected by damaged and idle assets, maintenance remains reactive, and administration is weakened by data inconsistency and limited digital integration. The most important inhibiting factors are limited human resources, insufficient budget, inadequate facilities and infrastructure, and weak integrated management systems. The article argues that facilities and infrastructure should not be treated as passive office equipment, but as strategic service capacity. Strengthening requires needs-based planning, priority-based budgeting, preventive maintenance, digital inventory, improved human resource capacity, and service-oriented monitoring. The study contributes to public administration literature by showing how asset governance directly shapes local service performance in the fields of employment, cooperatives, and SME development.

Abstract

This article develops a journal-style reconstruction of Fransye David Talumantak’s thesis on the implementation of budgetary policy for stunting management in Wangurer Village, South Likupang District, North Minahasa Regency, Indonesia. The study focuses on the procurement and distribution of supplementary feeding (PMT) financed through village funds and analyzes the determinant factors shaping implementation quality. Using a qualitative descriptive design, the original thesis gathered data through in-depth interviews, observation, and document analysis involving the village head, village secretary and finance officer, the chair of the village women’s movement, posyandu cadres, health workers from the local health center, community figures, and families with children at risk of stunting. The article reorganizes the thesis into a journal manuscript modeled on the structure of the Sammy article supplied by the user while preserving the empirical substance of the original research. The findings show that the policy has been implemented procedurally through budget allocation, budget utilization, food procurement, monthly distribution, and field assistance. Stunting has been recognized as a priority in the village budget and discussed through participatory village deliberation. Nevertheless, implementation remains only partially effective. Budget decisions are still dominated by administrative logic rather than detailed nutritional evidence; the quality of supplementary food is shaped not only by technical health considerations but also by local bargaining in village meetings; distribution is highly dependent on budget disbursement; beneficiary validation and household-level monitoring remain weak; and supervision is still largely administrative rather than performance-based. Four determinant factors stand out: budget governance, technical nutritional capacity, distribution and targeting mechanisms, and collaboration plus supervision across actors. The article argues that village-level stunting policy cannot be judged only by budget absorption or formal compliance. Its effectiveness depends on whether financial planning, nutrition expertise, targeting accuracy, cross-sector coordination, and community oversight are integrated into one implementation system. Strengthening should therefore focus on evidence-based budgeting, continuous cadre training, flexible and data-based distribution, structured monitoring of food consumption, and participatory accountability mechanisms. The study contributes to public administration literature by showing that village fund policy for stunting reduction is not merely a fiscal question, but a governance issue involving implementation capacity, local politics, intersectoral coordination, and community trust.

Abstract

The study examines how the policy is implemented through planning, program execution, coordination, reporting, monitoring, and evaluation, and identifies the determining factors affecting its effectiveness. The original thesis used a descriptive qualitative design and gathered data through interviews, observation, and documentation involving the TJSLP Forum, local government agencies, corporate representatives, and community beneficiaries. This article reorganizes those findings into a full journal manuscript modeled on the structure of a contemporary policy journal article and strengthens the analysis through thesis-based tables and field documentation photographs. The findings show that TJSLP implementation in North Minahasa has moved beyond symbolic regulation but remains suboptimal. In the planning dimension, most programs are still dominated by internal corporate design and are not fully integrated with RPJMD and RKPD priorities. In the implementation dimension, TJSLP activities remain largely charity-oriented and short-term, with limited emphasis on community empowerment and environmental sustainability. In the coordination dimension, the TJSLP Forum already exists as a formal platform, yet company participation, cross-sector synchronization, and community involvement remain uneven. In the reporting and accountability dimension, company compliance is inconsistent, reporting procedures are not standardized, and evaluation is still focused more on outputs than on outcomes and impacts. The determining factors shaping implementation include corporate commitment and compliance, institutional capacity of the TJSLP Forum, weak integration between TJSLP and regional development planning, and limited supervision and accountability mechanisms. The article argues that strengthening operational rules, performance-based reporting, collaborative planning, and institutional capacity is essential if TJSLP is to evolve from a fragmented charity into a strategic instrument of sustainable regional development. The study contributes to public administration literature by demonstrating that local TJSLP policy effectiveness depends not only on legal mandates but also on governance integration, stakeholder commitment, and the institutionalization of collaborative accountability.

Abstract

The study addresses the need for a more effective early detection and early prevention system in a socially plural district whose stability is strategically important for governance, investment, tourism, and intergroup harmony. Using a qualitative descriptive design, the original thesis collected data through in-depth interviews, observation, and document analysis involving officials of the Regional National Unity and Politics Agency (Kesbangpol), the Early Warning Community Forum (FKDM), interfaith actors, security institutions, district-level officials, and community leaders. The present article reorganizes the thesis into a full academic journal article and highlights the empirical findings through adapted tables and thesis-based figures. The findings indicate that the early warning policy has been implemented, but its performance remains suboptimal. Institutionally, Kesbangpol has carried out coordination, early detection, conflict mapping, and communication functions. However, implementation is constrained by limited human resources, insufficient budget, weak cross-sector coordination, limited analytical capacity, uneven public participation, and the absence of an integrated digital information system. The role of FKDM as a strategic community partner also remains underdeveloped due to limited training and operational support. At the same time, the policy benefits from several supportive factors, including local government commitment, a relatively strong regulatory foundation, collaboration with TNI and the Police, the influence of community and religious leaders, and local socio-cultural values that emphasize solidarity. The article argues that policy strengthening should move beyond formal compliance toward a collaborative, capacity-building, and digital governance model. It proposes an integrated strengthening strategy that combines institutional clarification, competency development, community-based reporting, and digital early warning infrastructure. The study contributes to the public administration literature by showing that regional early warning policy in plural local settings is not only a matter of legal design but also of implementation capacity, trust, inter-organizational coordination, and the ability to translate preventive governance into routine practice.
