Abstract

The reorientation of the 2026 education budget has generated significant debate due to the large allocation for the Free Nutritious Meal Program, raising concerns about its impact on overall education quality. This study aims to analyze the structure and dynamics of the 2026 education budget allocation and examine its implications for improving education quality. A qualitative research approach was employed using document analysis and policy review of official budget reports and relevant regulations. The findings reveal that the program contributes positively to students’ health, learning readiness, and classroom participation. However, the substantial allocation reduces funding for key sectors such as teacher professional development, educational infrastructure, and learning innovation, indicating a structural imbalance in policy priorities. In conclusion, while the program provides important short-term benefits, a more balanced and strategic allocation is required to ensure that welfare-oriented policies support, rather than hinder, sustainable improvements in education quality.

Abstract

Teachers’ performance plays a crucial role in determining the quality of education, yet it often remains inconsistent due to challenges in adapting to rapid educational changes. This study aims to examine the effect of adaptive learning, skill agility, and training on teachers’ performance in public junior high schools in Sragi District, Pekalongan Regency. A quantitative approach with a correlational design was employed. The population consisted of 173 teachers, with 121 respondents selected through proportional random sampling. Data were collected using a Likert-scale questionnaire and analyzed using multiple linear regression. The results indicate that adaptive learning, skill agility, and training have positive and significant effects on teachers’ performance, both partially and simultaneously. Skill agility shows the strongest influence (β = 0.767), followed by training (β = 0.279) and adaptive learning (β = 0.233). The model demonstrates high explanatory power, with an R² value of 0.866, indicating that 86.6% of the variance in teachers’ performance is explained by the three variables. These findings highlight the importance of adaptive capacity and continuous professional development in improving teachers’ performance. Therefore, an integrated approach combining adaptive learning, skill agility, and training is essential to enhance teacher effectiveness in dynamic educational environments.

Abstract

Corruption remains an issue that reflects the weakening of moral values and integrity in society, thus requiring preventive efforts through education. This study aims to analyze the implementation of anti-corruption educational values in Civic Education lessons at elementary schools in Nuhon Subdistrict, Banggai Regency. The study employs a qualitative descriptive approach to understand the process of value internalization in learning. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, non-participant observation, and documentation involving school principals, teachers, and sixth-grade students. The results indicate that the values of honesty, responsibility, and discipline are applied through integration into the curriculum, the routine practice of activities, teacher modeling, and reinforcement through school culture. This approach enables students not only to understand these values conceptually but also to incorporate them into their daily lives. Unlike previous studies, which tended to be conceptual and focused on higher levels of education, this study highlights actual practices in elementary schools in Nuhon Subdistrict, an area that has been rarely studied. This study confirms that anti-corruption education is more effective when implemented in an integrated manner across learning, behavior, and the school environment.

Abstract

The global environmental crisis positions the education sector as a strategic actor in mitigation and adaptation efforts. This study analyzes biology teacher needs to establish a foundation for developing an e-module based on the Collaborative Problem Solving Environmental Issue-Based Socio-Scientific Issues (CPS-EIS) framework. Through a descriptive research design, data were obtained from practitioners using a validated five-level Likert scale instrument. Evidence indicates a high priority for digital media that integrates authentic environmental cases and guides systematic collaborative thinking processes over simple information delivery. The integration of the CPS-EIS model offers a novel solution by aligning collaborative group work with the analysis of controversial socio-scientific issues to address the disparity between curriculum objectives and field realities. These results serve as the primary guideline for the instructional design of adaptive tools intended to improve environmental literacy and student collaboration in high school settings.

Abstract

This study was motivated by the importance of Pancasila Education in instilling moral values and character from an early age. Parental attention, in the form of supervision and motivation, is believed to improve students’ study habits; therefore, the relationship between these variables needs to be examined empirically. This study aims to determine the relationship between parental attention and study discipline on the Pancasila Education learning outcomes of fourth-grade elementary school students. The method used is a quantitative approach with a correlational design. The study population consisted of 63 students in the Rangga Warsita Cluster, Delanggu District, using a saturation sampling technique. Data were collected through a Likert scale questionnaire and documentation of odd-semester PAS scores. The results indicate that parental attention and study discipline each have a significant positive relationship with learning outcomes. Simultaneously, both are significantly associated with a 17.5% contribution, while the remainder is influenced by other factors. These findings underscore the importance of the synergy between parental support and student discipline in improving learning outcomes.

Abstract

This study aims to systematically examine teacher strategies based on Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) to enhance eye contact skills in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) during classroom learning. A Systematic Literature Review (SLR) was conducted by analyzing ten empirical research articles published between 2020 and 2025. The review focused on structured learning approaches, teacher interventions, and the impact on visual attention and social engagement in autistic children. Findings indicate that eye contact does not occur spontaneously but develops through sequential behavioral stages, including compliance with instructions, emergence of visual attention, social responses, and functional eye contact. Teachers implement strategies such as gradual prompting, consistent positive reinforcement, use of visual media, and the Discrete Trial Training (DTT) approach to systematically guide children in achieving sustained eye contact during learning interactions. These interventions not only improve visual attention but also facilitate basic social communication skills. Across all studies reviewed, consistent application of ABA-based strategies by teachers significantly enhances the frequency and duration of eye contact, forming a foundation for social engagement and classroom participation. This review provides evidence-based guidance for educators in designing and implementing ABA strategies in school settings, highlighting the importance of structured, gradual, and reinforced teaching methods to support the social and academic development of children with ASD.

Abstract

This study was motivated by the low mathematical concept understanding of first-grade students at SD Negeri 1 Lemahabang. Students experienced difficulties in understanding addition concepts, identifying examples and non-examples, and solving simple mathematical problems. This study aimed to improve students’ mathematical concept understanding through the use of counting box teaching aids. This research employed Classroom Action Research (CAR) using the Kemmis and McTaggart model consisting of planning, action, observation, and reflection stages. The subjects of this study were 25 first-grade students of SD Negeri 1 Lemahabang. According to Hardani et al. (2020), data collection techniques in educational research may include observation, tests, and documentation. Therefore, these techniques were used in this study. The results showed that the use of counting box teaching aids improved students’ mathematical concept understanding. In the pre-cycle stage, only 10 students (40%) achieved learning mastery. In cycle I, learning mastery increased to 16 students (64%), and in cycle II increased significantly to 23 students (92%). Therefore, the counting box teaching aid proved effective in improving students’ mathematical concept understanding in elementary school mathematics learning.

Abstract

Indonesia's low achievement in PISA 2022 scientific literacy, ranking 68th globally with a score of 398 points, reflects systemic problems in science education, including physics at the high school level. This study aims to analyze learning motivation and scientific literacy of students at SMAN 1 Logas Tanah Darat as a foundation for developing physics learning based on Pacu Jalur tradition. Using a quantitative approach with descriptive survey design, the research involved 25 students selected through purposive sampling technique. Data were collected using structured questionnaires with 4-point Likert scale covering five dimensions: physics concept understanding, intrinsic motivation, academic self-confidence, applied scientific literacy, and learning support factors. Results show that although students' collaborative skills are relatively high (80%) and some demonstrate self-directed learning initiatives (68%), significant challenges remain. Only 23% of students can apply physics concepts to daily life, 21% show interest in physics phenomena, and 9% have career orientation in physics . Only 28% of students feel confident with mathematical abilities and 32% are comfortable with physics formula derivation. These findings indicate the need for innovative learning strategies that integrate local culture such as Pacu Jalur tradition with Discovery Learning approach to make physics concepts more concrete, contextual, and meaningful.

Abstract

Pesantren and madrasah diniyah mu’adalah (MDM) have long served as pillars of Islamic education in Indonesia, yet their legal standing within the national education system remained ambiguous prior to 2019. This study aims to analyze the legal legitimacy, implementation mechanisms, and policy implications of Law No. 18 of 2019 on pesantren for the formal recognition of MDM in Indonesia. Using a library research method with a normative juridical and content analysis approach, this study examined the full statutory text of Law No. 18/2019, ministerial implementing regulations, official government documents, and relevant academic literature. The findings reveal that the law establishes multi layered legitimacy for MDM across eight articles, covering functional, typological, structural, and autonomy based dimensions. However, a significant implementation gap exists between the inclusive spirit of the law and the selective mechanisms of its implementing regulations (PMA No. 31/2020), which disproportionately benefit larger, better resourced pesantren. This study concludes that the principle of recognition without assimilation must be consistently applied in all derivative policies, and that empowerment based regulatory approaches are essential to ensure equitable legal recognition for MDM institutions across all regions of Indonesia.

Abstract

Generation Z faces significant challenges in maintaining religious faith amid the rapid flow of digital information, secularization, and moral relativism. These conditions often lead to spiritual crises and a declining understanding of Islamic creed among young Muslims. This study aims to analyze the role of Ilmu Kalam in strengthening Generation Z’s faith through rational and theological approaches. The research employs a literature review method, examining both classical and contemporary sources on Ilmu Kalam and its relevance to the intellectual characteristics of Generation Z. The findings reveal that the rational and argumentative principles of Ilmu Kalam provide logical and contextual religious understanding, addressing intellectual doubts while reinforcing faith. Furthermore, Ilmu Kalam plays a crucial role in developing a critical and moderate mindset without neglecting the essence of tawhid. The study concludes that revitalizing Ilmu Kalam in Islamic education and da’wah is essential to strengthen Generation Z’s religious conviction and identity in the modern era.
