Abstract

This study analyses the boarding school management strategy in developing student character at State Islamic Senior High School (MAN) 2 Tanjung Pura. Character education is a crucial response to globalisation's moral crisis and challenges. In Islamic education, the boarding school system is a strategic platform for consistently and sustainably nurturing moral and spiritual values. The research collected data through observation, interviews, and documentation using a descriptive qualitative approach. A total of 32 students and 15 staff members participated in the study. Data were analysed through data reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing stages. The findings reveal that character development is carried out through empathetic parenting, exemplary behaviour from teachers and caregivers, and senior student mentoring programs. Students and staff reported that these strategies foster discipline, independence, and responsibility. Supporting factors include consistent role modelling and structured daily routines in the dormitory. However, challenges such as the adjustment period for new students and a shortage of mentors still exist. This study supports the idea that Islamic boarding schools' humanistic and participatory management strategy creates a positive educational environment that encourages holistic character formation. These results are in line with previous research by Hasan (2021), Suryani (2020), Ma’arif (2019), Zuhri (2018), and Fadhilah (2017), who also found that well-managed dormitory systems significantly influence student moral development.

Abstract

Creating a positive school culture is essential for fostering students' moral, social, and academic development. In this context, Islamic Religious Education (PAI) teachers are seen as key agents in cultivating value-based environments within educational institutions. This study aims to analyse the role of PAI teachers in shaping a positive culture at SMPN 6 Torgamba by identifying the forms of positive culture developed, the teachers’ planning strategies, their functional roles, and the supporting and inhibiting factors involved. A qualitative method with a case study approach was applied, utilising participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and a documentation study. The findings reveal that five core aspects of positive culture have been developed at the school: religious culture, discipline culture, literacy culture, mutual cooperation culture, and tolerance culture. PAI teachers’ planning encompasses learning, religious programs, collaboration, and self-development. Their roles are embodied in six dimensions: as educators (mu’allim), role models (uswatun hasanah), mentors (mursyid), motivators, cultural facilitators, and evaluators. Key factors include school policy support, inter-teacher collaboration, active student engagement, parental and community involvement, and adequate facilities. Conversely, challenges include time constraints, diverse student backgrounds, negative technological influences, limited teacher competencies, and resistance to change. This study highlights the strategic role of PAI teachers in driving cultural transformation and recommends greater institutional support for character-based education in public schools.

Abstract

This study examines the evolving role of the Bines Dance in the matchmaking traditions of the Gayo community in Southeast Aceh. Initially performed as an interlude to the Saman Dance, the Bines Dance has developed into a meaningful cultural practice, particularly within the bejamu Saman tradition, where it serves as a subtle platform for courtship between local female dancers (seberu) and male visitors (tetamu). Using a qualitative, phenomenological approach, this research explores the lived experiences of individuals involved in or affected by the dance. Data were gathered through participant observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation, involving 15 informants: cultural leaders, dancers, matchmaking facilitators, and community members. Findings reveal that the Bines Dance acts as a poetic form of indirect communication. Female dancers express romantic interest through structured rhymes and metaphorical verses, initiating a symbolic exchange known as najuk. This tradition allows emotional expression while adhering to customary norms. The offering of a money ring (cincin uang) by the male guest’s family to the dancer marks a shift toward serious intent, often culminating in arranged meetings and marriage. The study concludes that the Bines Dance functions not only as entertainment but also as a living cultural mechanism for relationship-building and social cohesion. It reflects the community’s values while adapting to modern contexts, highlighting the importance of preserving traditional art as a dynamic force within Gayo society.

Abstract

This study explores the factors influencing undergraduate students’ motivation to learn English at three selected Cambodian universities: the National University of Cheasim Kamchaymear (NUCK), Svay Rieng University (SRU), and the University of Heng Samrin Thboung Khmum (UHST). The objective was to assess the levels of intrinsic and extrinsic motivation among students and examine their attitudes toward English learning. A quantitative research design was employed using a structured questionnaire, and data were collected from 101 undergraduates through convenience sampling. Results reveal that intrinsic motivation—such as personal interest, enjoyment, and curiosity—strongly correlates with students’ engagement in English learning. Extrinsic factors, including career aspirations and social expectations, also play a significant role, though to a slightly lesser extent. Additionally, while most students perceive English as essential for communication and future success, confidence in speaking varies across participants. This aligns with studies highlighting how social support and willingness to communicate impact learners’ confidence and participation in the language learning environment. The findings provide practical insights for educators and policymakers to design more targeted interventions that support both motivational dimensions, ultimately enhancing English language education in Cambodia.

Abstract

This study describes the implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum at SMKN 1 Kedawung and examines the role of teachers in its execution. The Merdeka curriculum emphasises flexibility, independence of thought, and character development of learners. Teachers have a central role as designers, implementers, and evaluators of learning in this curriculum. This qualitative research uses a literature review method and in-depth interviews with Vice Principals, senior teachers, and curriculum experts at SMKN 1 Kedawung. The results showed that although teachers have understood the concept of the Independent curriculum that has been running for almost two years, there are still obstacles in analyzing learning outcomes (CP), formulating learning objectives (TP), preparing the flow of learning objectives (ATP) and teaching modules, as well as making diagnostic assessments and learning evaluations. To overcome these obstacles, teachers implement strategies such as discussions with the MGMP team or peers and participating in online and offline training. Applying various learning models and methods, such as Problem-Based Learning (PBL), Project-Based Learning (PjBL), and inquiry, is emphasised to train students ' cognitive and psychomotor abilities and develop character. Evaluation of learning focuses on cognitive aspects, but also the character of learners through P5 (project for strengthening Pancasila student profile). Training and professional development are very influential in improving teachers' ability, as evidenced by 80% of teachers at SMK 1 Kedawung who have implemented the Independent curriculum well after attending various trainings.

Abstract

This research aims to investigate the role of elementary school teachers in instilling discipline in students amid the digital transformation occurring at SD 105438 Paya Lombang. Using a qualitative approach and case study method, data were collected through field observation, in-depth interviews with teachers and the school principal, as well as documentation of learning activities. The results show that teachers not only play a role as facilitators in the digital learning process but also as moral guides who instill values of discipline through an adaptive approach to technological developments. The use of digital tools such as learning applications, visual media, and communication platforms serves as a strategic means to build orderly and responsible learning routines. Nevertheless, this research also reveals various challenges faced, such as the limited digital literacy among teachers and students, as well as the lack of adequate technological infrastructure. Therefore, stronger collaboration is needed between schools, parents, and the community in creating a conducive, inclusive learning environment that is character-focused in the digital era.

Abstract

The number of students in grade XII of Budisatrya Private High School amounted to 154 people, 43% of students continued to higher education, and 57% did not continue to college. They choose to try to apply for jobs, for example, to become members of the Police, TNI, Security Guards, entrepreneurs, and factory workers. Guidance and counselling teachers help grade XII students for further education by directing and motivating them to continue their college education. Counseling guidance teachers give students views on the importance of education, how the university is portrayed, provide the latest information about the university, prospective police or army applications and job vacancy information for high school graduates and advise that a bright future cannot be achieved without hard work, therefore students are expected to always strive to achieve their goals with optimism and persistence. The supporting factors of counselling guidance teachers in preparing students for further education are the existence of lively socialisation between the school and the university and socialisation between the school and alumni that make it easier for students to continue to college, careers, entrepreneurship, and factory workers. Factors that hinder guidance and counselling teachers in preparing students for further education are the absence of transfer from university to school, and the lack of socialisation time, so socialisation runs less than optimally.

Abstract

The attitude of seniority among students in junior high schools (SMP) is a form of dysfunctional social relations that can disrupt an inclusive and healthy learning climate. This study aims to test the effectiveness of group counselling services using reframing techniques to reduce seniority attitudes among eighth-grade students at SMP Negeri 2 Silangkitang. The approach used is quantitative with a one-group pretest-posttest design. A sample of 9 students was purposively selected based on indications of seniority behaviour. The intervention was conducted over five sessions of group counselling that integrated reframing techniques to reshape participants' mindsets regarding the meaning of social leadership in the school context. The data collection instrument is a Likert scale questionnaire that measures the dimensions of social dominance, symbolic intimidation, and recognition of class status. Data analysis uses the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank test due to non-normal data distribution. The results show a significant decrease in seniority attitude scores, from a pretest average of 99.89 to 50.89 in the posttest, with a significance value (p) = 0.004 (p < 0.05). These findings indicate that reframing techniques are effective in helping students to reinterpret their social roles more constructively, thereby reducing dominant behaviour towards other students. This research contributes to developing educational counselling services as a preventive and curative strategy in building an equal, empathetic, and supportive school climate.

Abstract

This study aims to understand the impact of TikTok social media use on the mental health of Generation Z in social relationships. As one of the most popular digital platforms among today's youth, TikTok significantly shapes its users' mindset, emotions, and social behaviour. This study used a qualitative approach with descriptive methods, through in-depth interviews and observations of several residents aged 17-22 years old around the Griya Martubung area who actively use TikTok. The findings indicate that TikTok has both positive and negative impacts on the mental health of Generation Z. Positive impacts include increased self-confidence, self-expression, and access to information. However, negative impacts include social anxiety, feelings of inadequacy, and dependence on social views in the form of likes and comments. Several respondents experienced decreased direct interactions in social relationships due to a greater focus on online interactions. This study emphasises the importance of digital literacy and the role of mentors from the surrounding environment to prevent TikTok use from negatively impacting the mental health and quality of Generation Z's social relationships.
