Abstract

Purpose – This study aims to examine the effect of the LOC-R (Literacy, Orientation, Collaboration, and Reflection) learning model on fifth-grade students’ critical thinking skills in mathematics, addressing the need for instructional approaches that move beyond procedural learning toward higher-order thinking. Methodology – A quasi-experimental method with a one-group pretest–posttest design was employed. The participants consisted of 20 fifth-grade students from SD Negeri Sosrowijayan. The intervention involved the implementation of the LOC-R learning model in mathematics instruction. Data were collected using a critical thinking skills questionnaire developed based on eight critical thinking indicators. Data analysis included descriptive statistics, normalized gain (N-gain), and a paired-sample t-test to determine the significance of the observed differences. Findings – The results revealed a substantial improvement in students’ critical thinking skills following the implementation of the LOC-R learning model. The mean score increased from 65 on the pretest to 85 on the posttest, with an N-gain value of 0.67, indicating a moderate-to-high level of improvement. The paired-samples t-test showed a statistically significant difference between pretest and posttest scores (p < 0.05), confirming the intervention's effectiveness. Novelty – This study provides experimental-based empirical evidence on the effectiveness of the LOC-R learning model, which has predominantly been examined through descriptive approaches in previous research. Significance – The findings offer practical implications for elementary school teachers, curriculum developers, and education researchers seeking effective instructional models to enhance students’ critical thinking skills in mathematics learning.

Abstract

Purpose – This study aims to examine the role of Madrasah Self-Evaluation (EDM) and the electronic Madrasah Work and Budget Plan (e-RKAM) in transforming madrasah education management through the implementation of performance-based planning and budgeting policies. The study is grounded in the growing demand for data-driven, transparent, and accountable governance to improve the quality of madrasah education. Methodology – This research employed a descriptive-analytical qualitative approach. Data were collected through document analysis of policy regulations, technical guidelines, and implementation reports related to EDM and e-RKAM, as well as a review of relevant literature on education management and performance-based budgeting. The analysis focused on examining the integration process, implementation mechanisms, and managerial implications of EDM and e-RKAM within madrasah governance. Findings – The integration of EDM and e-RKAM establishes a structured management cycle that links quality evaluation, planning, budgeting, implementation, monitoring, and accountability. EDM provides objective data on madrasah performance through measurable indicators, while e-RKAM ensures that budgeting decisions align with identified priority needs. This integration contributes to greater transparency, accountability, and more effective resource utilization. However, challenges remain, particularly in terms of human resource capacity, digital literacy, and infrastructure readiness. Novelty – This study offers a conceptual contribution by presenting EDM and e-RKAM as an integrated performance-based management framework rather than as separate administrative instruments. It highlights how the alignment between self-evaluation data and electronic budgeting systems can drive a paradigm shift in madrasah governance. Significance – The results of this study are beneficial for madrasah leaders, policymakers, education administrators, and stakeholders within the Ministry of Religious Affairs as a reference for strengthening data-driven decision-making and improving the quality and accountability of madrasah education management

Abstract

Purpose – This study examines the utilization of Masjid Tuha Indrapuri as an open history laboratory in inquiry-based Islamic history education at the higher education level in Aceh, Indonesia, with the aim of developing a replicable conceptual model for heritage site-based learning. Methodology – A descriptive qualitative design with an embedded case study strategy was employed over eight months (March–October 2024). Data were collected through passive participant observation (10 sessions), in-depth interviews with six lecturers, 24 purposively selected students, two site managers, and one local historian, alongside document analysis. Trustworthiness was established through source triangulation, methodological triangulation, and member checking. Data saturation was confirmed at the point of theoretical redundancy across participant groups. Findings – The site's tri-layered historical complexity generates authentic open questions that catalyse historical inquiry. A structured three-phase inquiry model qualitatively indicated enhanced critical thinking and historical reasoning among students. Key constraints include limited bilingual interpretive infrastructure, insufficient site-based pedagogical competency, logistical barriers, and the absence of formal academic visitation protocols. Identified benefits encompass strengthened historical consciousness, higher-order historical thinking, reinforced Islamic identity, and foundational research competencies. Novelty – A four-component conceptual model integrating site potential, pedagogical design, facilitator competency, and institutional support is proposed as a replicable framework for Islamic heritage site-based learning with contemporary inquiry-based pedagogy and explicit institutional enabling conditions. Significance – This study benefits history educators, heritage site managers, institutional policymakers, and curriculum developers seeking to integrate cultural heritage into higher education pedagogy across Indonesia and beyond.

Abstract

Tujuan - Tulisan ini menelaah tiga pokok persoalan: bagaimana pola kepemimpinan manajerial kepala sekolah dalam mendorong peningkatan kompetensi guru, seperti apa corak gaya kepemimpinan yang dijalankan, serta faktor-faktor apa saja yang ikut membentuk efektivitas kepemimpinan tersebut. Penelitian dilaksanakan di dua lembaga TK di Kecamatan Wringinanom, Kabupaten Gresik, yakni TK DWP Sumengko dan TK Islam Unggulan At Tawfiq. Metodologi - Kajian ini berpijak pada paradigma kualitatif dengan rancangan studi kasus multi-situs yang bersifat deskriptif-komparatif. Data dikumpulkan melalui empat jalur, yaitu wawancara mendalam, pengamatan lapangan secara partisipatif, telaah dokumen kelembagaan, dan kuesioner skala Likert sebagai data pendukung. Proses analisis mengacu pada model interaktif Miles dan Huberman (2014) yang meliputi reduksi, penyajian, dan penarikan simpulan, dengan keabsahan data dijamin melalui triangulasi sumber. Temuan - Di TK DWP Sumengko, kepala sekolah menerapkan pola manajemen yang lebih bersifat personal dan informal, dengan perolehan skor kepuasan guru rata-rata 3,40 (Cukup) serta gaya kepemimpinan demokratis-situasional (skor 3,88). Berbeda dengan itu, TK Islam Unggulan At Tawfiq menghadirkan sistem manajemen yang jauh lebih terstruktur dan terdokumentasi, dengan rerata skor 4,76 (Sangat Baik) dan gaya kepemimpinan transformasional-partisipatif bernilai Islam (skor 4,90). Kebaruan - Dari kajian ini lahir sebuah model kepemimpinan manajerial yang adaptif dan kontekstual untuk satuan PAUD, yang menyempurnakan kerangka POAC konvensional dengan memasukkan empat dimensi tambahan: analisis kebutuhan pelatihan berbasis data (TNA), formalisasi rencana tindak lanjut supervisi (RTL), penguatan komunitas belajar internal, serta penghayatan nilai-nilai transendental dalam proses motivasi transformasional. Signifikansi - Temuan dalam penelitian ini berguna sebagai acuan praktis bagi kepala sekolah TK dalam menyusun sistem pembinaan kompetensi guru yang lebih terarah, serta menyumbangkan data empiris bagi Dinas Pendidikan Kabupaten Gresik sebagai landasan penyusunan standar minimal pembinaan profesionalisme guru PAUD.
