Abstract

The rapid advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has transformed educational practices, knowledge production, and human interaction, while simultaneously raising ethical, spiritual, and epistemological challenges for Muslim learners in the digital era. This study examines how the internalization of tawhid values can serve as a foundational framework for addressing the opportunities and risks posed by AI within the context of contemporary Islamic education. The central question investigates the role of tawhid-based education in shaping learners’ ethical awareness, spiritual resilience, and critical engagement with intelligent technologies. Employing a qualitative library research approach, this study analyzes contemporary literature on Islamic educational philosophy, AI ethics, and the concept of tawhid as a holistic worldview. The findings reveal that the internalization of tawhid values strengthens moral responsibility, cultivates critical digital literacy, reinforces human accountability before God, and prevents technological determinism that may undermine religious and ethical consciousness. Integrating tawhid into educational curricula encourages learners to utilize AI as a tool for human flourishing rather than as an autonomous authority governing human decisions. The study argues that tawhid-oriented Islamic education offers a comprehensive paradigm for balancing technological innovation with spiritual integrity, thereby preparing Muslims to navigate the complexities of the AI era responsibly and ethically.

Abstract

Self-confidence is a fundamental affective competence that supports prospective teachers in communicating ideas, delivering presentations, and demonstrating professional capabilities during the learning process. However, many students in the Chemistry Education Program at the University of Jambi exhibit limited self-confidence, which may hinder their academic engagement and professional development. This study aimed to examine whether project-based learning centered on the development of educational aids could enhance the self-confidence of students enrolled in the Chemistry Education Workshop course. A quantitative approach employing a pre-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design was adopted. Data were collected from Chemistry Education students using a self-confidence questionnaire and analyzed through the Shapiro-Wilk normality test and a paired-samples t-test. The findings revealed a statistically significant improvement in students’ self-confidence following the implementation of project-based learning. Engaging students in designing and presenting educational aids fostered active participation, creativity, collaborative learning, and authentic problem-solving experiences that strengthened both their affective development and professional competencies. These findings suggest that project-based learning constitutes an effective pedagogical approach for enhancing self-confidence while simultaneously preparing prospective chemistry teachers for future instructional practice.

Abstract

This study examined the effect of Canva and Assemblr Edu-assisted visual media on the Science learning outcomes of third-grade students at Public Elementary School 106156 Klumpang Kebun, Indonesia. The research was conducted in response to students' low Science achievement, which was associated with the limited use of innovative instructional media, resulting in difficulties in understanding abstract scientific concepts. A quantitative approach employing a quasi-experimental method with a Nonequivalent Control Group Design was adopted. The study involved 40 students divided into an experimental group and a control group selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using pretests and posttests and analyzed through tests of normality, homogeneity, and the Independent Samples t-test. The findings revealed that the experimental group achieved a substantial improvement in learning outcomes, with the mean score increasing from 66.00 on the pretest to 77.00 on the posttest, outperforming the control group that received conventional instruction. Furthermore, hypothesis testing produced a significance value (Sig. 2-tailed) of 0.002, which was lower than the 0.05 significance level, indicating a statistically significant difference between the two groups. These findings demonstrate that integrating Canva and Assemblr Edu-assisted visual media into Science instruction significantly enhances students' learning outcomes and offers an effective approach for facilitating conceptual understanding at the elementary school level.

Abstract

This study examines the representation of pressure-based pedagogy in the film Whiplash through the theoretical perspectives of Operant Conditioning, power relations, and critical pedagogy. The research is grounded in the ongoing debate surrounding pressure-oriented instructional practices, which are often regarded as effective in enhancing performance while simultaneously posing substantial psychological risks to learners. The study addresses how pressure-based pedagogy is represented in the learning process and evaluates its pedagogical implications through a qualitative documentary research approach. Data were collected through systematic observation of scenes, dialogues, and character interactions portrayed in the film. The findings reveal that Fletcher effectively employed reinforcement, punishment, and behavioral shaping to improve Andrew Neiman's musical performance; however, these strategies also generated psychological distress, social isolation, and emotional exhaustion that undermined the learner's well-being. The analysis demonstrates that Whiplash offers a critical reflection on the limitations of behaviorist pedagogical practices when implemented through coercive and authoritarian approaches. The study concludes that educational success should not be measured solely by performance outcomes but should also prioritize learners' psychological well-being, autonomy, and humanistic development as essential components of meaningful education.

Abstract

This study examines the implementation of the advance organizer strategy in fostering meaningful learning in sociology and identifies the challenges encountered by teachers during its implementation. The research was motivated by the need to strengthen students' conceptual understanding by connecting prior knowledge with newly acquired concepts through structured instructional strategies. A descriptive qualitative approach employing a case study design was adopted. The participants comprised sociology teachers and students from Classes X.E1 and X.E11 at State Senior High School 3 Surakarta during the 2025/2026 academic year. Data were collected through non-participant observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation of lesson planning and classroom activities. The findings indicate that the advance organizer strategy was implemented through four principal practices: structured introductory activities grounded in authentic social phenomena, flexible use of instructional media such as videos, images, and news articles, integration of prior and new knowledge through pop quizzes and guided questioning, and reinforcement of key concepts during lesson closure. Nevertheless, its implementation was constrained by limited student participation, heterogeneous prior knowledge, less conducive classroom conditions, and inadequate supporting facilities. The study concludes that advance organizer strategies can effectively promote meaningful sociology learning when complemented by initial diagnostic assessment and instructional scaffolding that align with students' cognitive structures.
