Abstract

Purpose – This study aims to evaluate the implementation of counselor accountability at MTs Negeri Kota Bogor and formulate evidence-based strategies to strengthen their professional practice. The research responds to systemic challenges in Indonesian public madrasahs, where high student-to-counselor ratios, limited facilities, and fragmented institutional support hinder effective counseling services aligned with national policy goals. Design/methods/approach – A qualitative intrinsic case study approach was employed, focusing on two key informants—a counselor and the school principal—through semi-structured interviews, direct observation, and document analysis. Thematic analysis was conducted using NVivo 12, guided by the M.E.A.S.U.R.E accountability framework (Dahir & Stone, 2003), with methodological triangulation and member checking to ensure credibility. Findings – Findings indicate that while the counselor applies systematic planning and evaluation procedures, accountability practices remain constrained by structural barriers. Notable initiatives include weekly documentation, digital-based student needs assessment, and collaborative service integration into classroom learning. However, ineffective communication with parents, insufficient training in data use, and the absence of specialized supervision impede sustainable accountability. Research implications – The findings support five actionable recommendations: (1) institutionalization of service-specific SOPs, (2) low-tech digital integration for reporting and assessment, (3) regular training in program evaluation and data utilization, (4) strengthened principal–counselor collaboration, and (5) strategic partnerships with external psychological service providers. These steps align with the goals of the Kurikulum Merdeka and Permendikbud No. 111/2014, and can inform national-scale policy refinements

Abstract

Purpose – This study aims to examine branding image strategies in building competitive advantage at Private Islamic Religious Higher Education Institutions (Perguruan Tinggi Keagamaan Islam Swasta or PTKIS) in Indonesia. The research focuses on Universitas Islam Zainul Hasan Genggong (UNZAH) and Sekolah Tinggi Dirasat Islamiyah Imam Syafi’i (STDIIS) Jember, which adopt both local and global branding approaches. This study responds to the need for a balanced reputation management model to strengthen PTKIS’s positioning amidst the dynamics of national and global higher education landscapes. Design/methods/approach – Employing a qualitative approach with a multi-case study design and cross-site analysis, data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and analysis of strategic documents. Data analysis followed the Miles & Huberman interactive model, and validation was conducted through source triangulation. Findings – UNZAH successfully established its institutional identity through the integration of local and Islamic cultural values, leading to an increase of up to 1,000 new student enrollments per year. STDIIS developed a global branding strategy through Arabic language proficiency and a Madinah-based curriculum, attracting over 1,200 applicants. The conceptual model of Balanced Reputation Management Strategy was formulated to integrate local characteristics and global strategies within the institutional branding framework. Research implications – This model can be implemented by PTKIS administrators as a guideline for designing long-term branding strategies grounded in Islamic values, local culture, and international competitiveness, in order to strengthen institutional image and attract prospective students.

Abstract

Purpose – This study aims to evaluate the representation and relevance of religious moderation values in Islamic Religious Education (PAI) textbooks for the Senior High School (SMA) level in North Sumatera. The study responds to the discrepancy between national policies emphasizing the importance of moderation and textbook content that does not fully reflect principles of inclusivity, pluralism, and interfaith dialogue. Design/methods/approach – A qualitative approach was employed using the Qualitative Content Analysis (QCA) method on officially sanctioned PAI textbooks based on the Merdeka Curriculum and KMA No. 183 of 2019. The analysis was conducted on narrative content, visuals, learning activities, and other graphic elements. Data coding and interpretation were supported by ATLAS.ti software, with validity ensured through researcher triangulation and analytical auditing. Findings – The results indicate that PAI textbooks generally represent religious moderation values such as tasamuh (tolerance), tawassuth (moderation), and i’tidal (justice). However, values such as muwathanah (national commitment) and musawah(equality) remain underrepresented. Visual aspects and the integration of learning technology are also minimal, and weaknesses were identified in the editing of religious terminology. Research implications – The study's results serve as a foundation for policymakers, textbook authors, and educators to revise instructional materials to be more inclusive in narrative, visual, and digital dimensions. Recommendations are directed toward strengthening the internalization of moderation values through contextual pedagogical approaches and technology integration.

Abstract

Purpose – This study aims to explore the role of Islamic Religious Education (IRE) in shaping the moral character of adolescents as a preventive effort against sexual deviance, particularly in urban areas of Indonesia. The study addresses the empirical gap concerning how Islamic values are internalized by adolescents within the context of digitalization and a permissive social culture. Design/methods/approach – This research employs a qualitative approach with an intrinsic case study design. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and document analysis involving 25 informants in the Greater Jakarta area, including IRE teachers, junior high school students, parents, school leaders, and religious figures. Thematic analysis was conducted with reference to Bronfenbrenner’s ecological systems theory, Bandura’s social learning theory, and Erikson’s psychosocial development theory. Findings – IRE contributes to the development of adolescents’ moral resilience through teacher role modeling, contextual learning approaches, and the reinforcement of spiritual environments and open family communication. The main challenges arise from pedagogical limitations of teachers and the influence of digital media; however, collaborative strategies among schools, families, and communities have proven effective in supporting value internalization and self-regulation. Research implications – The findings underscore the necessity of training IRE teachers in Islamic sexual literacy and developing a synergistic educational ecosystem involving schools, families, and communities. A psycho-religious intervention model is recommended as a preventive educational strategy that is adaptive to adolescents’ realities. Nonetheless, the study is geographically limited to the urban Greater Jakarta area; thus, the findings require further validation in rural contexts with different social and cultural dynamics.

Abstract

Purpose – The study aims to investigate how multicultural education has been implemented in the state Islamic universities in Indonesia and what strategies have been applied by the universities in promoting and imparting multicultural education to students. Two representing universities have been selected: UIN Sunan Kalijaga Yogyakarta and UIN Sulthan Thaha Saifuddin Jambi. Design/methods/approach – This is qualitative study using direct data collection. Data were collected through interview, document analysis, and observation. Data were analyzed through descriptive analysis and critical analysis. Descriptive analysis has provided detailed information about the implementation of multiculturalism. Critical analysis has allowed researchers to examine and criticize various multicultural education tasks on both campuses. Findings – The authors found that in implementing multicultural education, both universities have built an equity pedagogy by bringing multiculturalism into the learning process, have integrated multicultural content into learning, have inculcated multiculturalism insight in the process of constructing knowledge, and have made efforts to reduce prejudice and empower school culture. The strategies adopted to promote and impart multicultural education to students are adapting the curriculum, promoting equality through campus activities, optimizing the strategic role of lecturers in instilling multiculturalism insights directly into students, forming study centers with multiculturalism insight, and maintaining the uniqueness of each university in fighting for equality. Research implications – Since the study covers state Islamic universities in Indonesia, it could contribute to the effort to promote multiculturalism in all the higher education institutions under the Ministry of Religious Affairs. Based on the idea that campus residents are dynamic, critical, creative, multifaceted, and inventive creatures, it is important to create a campus environment that prioritizes an atmosphere of justice, equality, comfort, and security for all campus social entities.

Abstract

Purpose – This study aims to examine the implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum in the subject of Islamic Religious Education (PAI) and Character Education at SMA Negeri 1 and SMA Negeri 2 Sibolga, focusing on the aspects of planning, implementation, and evaluation. It addresses the need for empirical evidence regarding the application of character-based curriculum practices in non-metropolitan areas, particularly within the context of contextual and transformative religious education. Design/methods/approach – Employing a qualitative descriptive approach and a multisite study design, this research involves participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and curriculum document analysis. Data were analyzed through a cross-site thematic approach to uncover convergent and divergent patterns in the implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum, including differentiated learning strategies and the application of project-based learning (P5). Findings – SMA Negeri 1 implemented a gradual approach through structured training, while SMA Negeri 2 adopted a more responsive model through independent teacher exploration and collective reflection. Teacher readiness, digital infrastructure, participatory leadership, and active student engagement emerged as key factors. Project-based learning and formative assessment enhanced student engagement and comprehension. Challenges included disparities in teacher understanding and low student learning autonomy. Research implications – The findings provide strategic guidance for schools to develop adaptive and participatory implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum through reflective training, technology integration, and learning approaches that are responsive to student needs.

Abstract

Purpose – This study aims to: (1) analyze the role of self-compassion in dealing with negative body image and the factors influencing it among female adolescents; (2) explore the contribution of moral education to the development of self-compassionate attitudes; and (3) evaluate the impact of self-compassion on the psychological and social well-being of female adolescents in Islamic schools. This research addresses the limitations of previous studies, which predominantly employed quantitative approaches and have not contextually addressed spiritual values. Design/methods/approach – This study employed a qualitative approach with a phenomenological design. Four female adolescents from Muhammadiyah Junior High Schools 7 and 8 in Surakarta were purposively selected based on their experiences with negative body image. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, participatory observation, and document studies, and analyzed using Miles and Huberman’s technique. Data validity was enhanced through triangulation of methods, sources, and theories. Findings – The study found that self-compassion functions as a protective mechanism that helps female adolescents manage social pressures related to the body. The three main dimensions of Neff’s framework—self-kindness, common humanity, and mindfulness—were identified in the participants’ narratives. Moral education that internalizes Islamic values such as gratitude (syukur), contentment (qanaah), and sincerity (ikhlas) contributed to self-acceptance and psychological resilience. Self-compassion also had a positive impact on increasing self-confidence, emotional calmness, and healthy social relationships. Research implications – The findings recommend a reformulation of the Islamic Religious Education curriculum to be more responsive to adolescents’ psychosocial issues, as well as the development of spiritual mentoring programs and Islamic media literacy to promote positive body image and emotional well-being among students.

Abstract

Purpose – This study investigates the leadership strategies of school principals in implementing data-driven planning integrated with religious values, addressing a critical gap in educational leadership literature. While the use of data in school planning is widely discussed, its alignment with spiritual and local cultural values remains underexplored, particularly within multicultural primary schools in Indonesia. Design/methods/approach – A qualitative single case study was conducted at SDN Buahkapas, West Java, using an interpretive epistemology. Data collection included in-depth interviews, non-participant observations, and document analysis (e.g., Education Report Card, annual work plan). Thematic analysis, supported by NVivo software, was employed to identify, code, and visualize recurring patterns across data sources and informants. Findings – The principal demonstrated strategic leadership through comprehensive data analysis (aided by NVivo-based word cloud and project mapping), teacher collaboration, and the integration of religious values into the school’s vision—“SAKTI” (Sehat, Agamis, Kreatif, Berteknologi, dan Inspiratif). Key themes included data-driven planning (19 references), classifying priorities (17), and collaboration (13). Challenges such as limited teacher data literacy and financial constraints were addressed through reflective evaluations, capacity-building efforts, and external resource mobilization. Research implications – Findings highlight the importance of strengthening principals’ data literacy and capacity to embed spiritual values in school planning. Integrated training and teacher empowerment in data interpretation are essential to ensure contextually responsive and evidence-based school improvement. While findings are contextually rich, their generalizability is limited due to the single-case design.

Abstract

Purpose – The limited time allocated for Arabic language instruction within the Ministry of Religious Affairs curriculum encouraged Diniyyah Puteri Padang Panjang to implement curriculum integration to enhance students’ Arabic proficiency. This study aims to explain the implementation of the integration between the 2019 Ministerial Decree Curriculum (KMA) and the Diniyyah Arabic Center (DAC) Curriculum. Design/methods/approach – This study employs a qualitative approach with a case study method. Data were collected through classroom observations, in-depth interviews with four Arabic teachers, the principal, and the head of DAC, as well as documentation techniques. Data analysis was conducted through data collection, condensation, presentation, and conclusion drawing. Findings – The findings reveal that the curriculum integration at Diniyyah Puteri adopts a Nested Curriculum model characterized by: (1) Integrated learning objectives, including Arabic language skills and linguistic elements; (2) Learning materials that include both the official Ministry textbooks and supplementary resources such as Arabic camp programs, vocabulary enhancement, and muhadatsah mastery; (3) Time allocation combining two hours of formal instruction with non-formal learning within school and dormitory settings; (4) Learning activities that span classroom, dormitory, and school environment practices. The integration model contributes significantly to improved speaking and reading skills, as evidenced by students' increased interaction with native speakers and their readiness for further studies in the Middle East. Research implications – Despite these advancements, the integration model faces challenges related to the lack of a structured instructional system, indicating the need for systematic development in curriculum design and implementation frameworks.

Abstract

Purpose – This study aims to explore the implementation of the STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics) approach based on Islamic values in pesantren, as a response to the need for integrating modern scientific knowledge and Islamic spirituality in addressing 21st-century challenges. The focus of the study is to identify contextual strategies for implementing STEAM, analyze students' responses to the integration of Islamic values within STEAM learning, and formulate a conceptual framework for STEAM integration grounded in the principles of Islamic education (ta’dib). Design/methods/approach – This study employs a qualitative approach through an exploratory case study design at Pondok Pesantren Tahfidzul Qur’an Al Husna Bukit Rajawali. Data were collected through participatory observation, semi-structured interviews with five key informants (teachers, pesantren leaders, students), and document analysis conducted during March 2025. Data analysis was carried out thematically using triangulation techniques to validate the findings. Findings – The results indicate that STEAM was implemented through project-based learning, including projects such as constructing a natural water filter, producing educational videos, and creating Islamic geometry-based calligraphy. The integration of Islamic values was carried out substantively, with explicit connections between STEAM activities and Qur’anic verses and hadiths, significantly enhancing students' enthusiasm and active engagement. Identified challenges include limited learning facilities and teachers’ competencies in applying interdisciplinary learning. Research implications – Practically, this study recommends that pesantren improve teachers' pedagogical competencies through regular training in STEAM methodologies and invest in simple laboratory facilities or collaborative learning spaces. This integration model can be implemented in other pesantren with similar characteristics to enhance the quality of Islamic education in preparing a generation that is characterized, religious, and capable of addressing global challenges.
