Abstract

Strengthening students’ character is a strategic issue in education, particularly through Civic Education that integrates local cultural values to enhance contextual relevance and meaningfulness. However, empirical evidence regarding the effectiveness of Civic Education learning management in supporting character building remains limited. This study aims to analyse the effect of Civic Education learning management on strengthening students’ character based on local values in private schools, as well as to identify relevant local cultural elements that can be integrated into Civic Education learning. This study employed a quantitative approach using a survey method involving 153 students selected through a snowball sampling technique. Data were collected using a Likert-scale questionnaire consisting of 25 statements. The data were analysed using descriptive statistics and regression analysis with the assistance of SPSS software. The results indicate that Civic Education learning management has a significant and positive effect on strengthening students’ character based on local values, with a coefficient of determination (R²) of 41.4% and a significance value of 0.000 (p < 0.05). These findings imply that well-planned, systematic, and integrated management of Civic Education learning that incorporates local cultural values plays a crucial role in fostering students’ character development in a contextual and sustainable manner.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the effect of an Edpuzzle-based flipped classroom model on students’ interest in learning Fiqh from a digital instructional management perspective. A quantitative approach with an experimental method was employed using a post-test-only control group design. The participants were divided into an experimental group, which received instruction through an Edpuzzle-supported flipped classroom model, and a control group, which was taught using conventional learning methods. Data were collected through a learning interest questionnaire, classroom observations, and documentation. Prior to hypothesis testing, prerequisite analyses were conducted, followed by an independent samples t-test using SPSS to determine the significance of the treatment effect. The findings reveal a statistically significant difference in students’ learning interest between the experimental and control groups, with a significance value lower than 0.05. These results indicate that the integration of flipped classroom strategies with digital media such as Edpuzzle effectively enhances students’ interest in Fiqh learning. The study implies that well-managed digital learning environments and instructional planning play a crucial role in fostering student engagement and motivation. Therefore, the Edpuzzle-based flipped classroom model can be considered an effective instructional management strategy to improve learning interest in religious education contexts.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze school principals’ strategies for improving educational quality through the development of teaching personnel in vocational secondary education. A qualitative descriptive approach was employed, with data collected through observations, in-depth interviews, and documentation, and analyzed using data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing techniques. The findings indicate that principals implement teacher development strategies through competency enhancement via training programs and the dissemination of training outcomes, reinforcement of discipline and continuous performance supervision, as well as the provision of support, recognition, and a collaborative work environment. These strategies contribute to increased teacher professionalism and improved learning quality. Nevertheless, challenges persist, including limited training quotas, inadequate learning support facilities, and restricted access to technology. To address these constraints, schools apply internal knowledge-sharing mechanisms, encourage teacher self-directed learning, and establish sustainable collaborations with industry partners and micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs). The study underscores the critical role of strategic and effective school leadership in fostering teacher development as a key driver for enhancing the quality of vocational education and offers practical insights for educational leaders and policymakers in designing sustainable professional development initiatives.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the application of the Agile Management paradigm in quality-based curriculum development, with particular attention to how adaptive, collaborative, and iterative principles enhance curriculum relevance and educational quality holistically. This study employs a qualitative approach using a case study design. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, participatory observation, and document analysis involving key educational stakeholders, and were analyzed thematically through open, axial, and selective coding. The findings indicate that Agile Management contributes significantly to curriculum flexibility, stakeholder engagement, and continuous improvement. Adaptive practices enable curriculum adjustments aligned with students’ needs, collaborative processes strengthen shared ownership among stakeholders, and iterative cycles support ongoing refinement and integration of learning innovations. These results demonstrate that Agile-based curriculum management fosters a responsive and sustainable educational framework. The study implies that integrating Agile Management principles into curriculum governance can strengthen quality assurance systems, support contextualized learning, and enhance institutional capacity for continuous improvement in integrated Islamic education.

Abstract

This study aims to examine internal quality assurance as an ideology constructed through instrumental rationality and to analyze its implications for educational management, pedagogical practices, and student learning experiences. Employing a qualitative approach within an interpretive paradigm, this study explores how quality assurance is socially constructed and enacted in school management. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with school leaders, teachers, and administrative staff, participatory observations, and document analysis. The data were analyzed thematically to identify patterns related to managerial rationality, quality discourse, and pedagogical consequences. Trustworthiness was ensured through source and method triangulation, informant verification, and contextual interpretation. The findings reveal that internal quality assurance is predominantly framed as an administrative and symbolic mechanism to achieve institutional legitimacy. Quality management practices emphasize documentation, reporting, and quantitative indicators, while pedagogical depth and student learning experiences receive less attention. This technocratic orientation constrains teacher autonomy, limits pedagogical innovation, and creates tensions between managerial accountability and instructional responsiveness. The study highlights the need to reform quality assurance systems in educational management by balancing administrative compliance with pedagogical development, empowering teachers, and repositioning student learning experiences as the core objective of quality improvement.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of packaging design and digital marketing management on purchase decisions in educational culinary ventures, with brand image serving as a mediating variable. The research is grounded in an educational management perspective, particularly in understanding how the managerial implementation of marketing-related competencies within educational-based culinary enterprises contributes to consumer decision-making. A quantitative approach with a causal associative design was employed. Data were collected from 140 consumers of culinary products produced by educational culinary ventures in Pangkalpinang using structured questionnaires. The data were analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling with the Partial Least Squares approach (SEM-PLS) through SmartPLS 4. The results indicate that packaging design and digital marketing management have significant positive effects on brand image. Furthermore, digital marketing management and brand image significantly influence purchase decisions. Packaging design does not exert a significant direct effect on purchase decisions; however, its effect becomes significant when mediated by brand image. Brand image emerges as the most dominant factor influencing purchase decisions. The structural model explains 57.1 percent of the variance in brand image and 59.3 percent of the variance in purchase decisions, demonstrating strong predictive power. These findings imply that effective educational management of culinary ventures should emphasize the integration of packaging design and digital marketing within entrepreneurship learning programs, as brand image plays a critical role in translating educational-based marketing practices into sustainable consumer purchasing behavior.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate government policies in the arrangement and security of parking facilities for commercial buildings by integrating an educational management perspective, particularly in relation to policy planning, coordination, supervision, and stakeholder participation as learning processes within public sector governance. The evaluation framework is based on the theory of Egon G. Guba and Yvonna S. Lincoln, which includes five indicators: effectiveness, efficiency, responsiveness, suitability, and policy impact. This research employed a qualitative descriptive method using in-depth interviews, observations, and document analysis involving eleven informants from relevant government agencies, law enforcement units, business actors, parking attendants, and community members. The findings indicate that the implementation of parking policies has not been effective or efficient due to weak inter-agency coordination, limited supervision mechanisms, and inadequate parking infrastructure. From an educational management perspective, these weaknesses reflect insufficient institutional learning, lack of systematic capacity development, and limited dissemination of policy understanding among implementers and stakeholders. Nevertheless, responsiveness is relatively strong, as authorities promptly address public complaints through established communication channels. Although the policy aligns with urban planning objectives, it has not been adaptive to the rapid growth of vehicles and economic activities. The policy impact on traffic order and public comfort remains partial, with persistent issues of illegal parking and congestion. The study implies that strengthening educational management principles such as continuous institutional learning, competency based training, digital supervision systems, and community-based policy education is essential to improve the effectiveness and sustainability of parking policy implementation

Abstract

This study examines the impact of parental collaboration based on criteria derived from quality management and institutional resilience frameworks in Islamic boarding school–based junior high schools. The research aims to analyze how parental collaboration contributes to strengthening quality management practices and enhancing institutional resilience in responding to internal and external challenges. Employing a qualitative research approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and document analysis, and analyzed using quality management perspectives developed by Deming and Juran. The findings reveal that parental collaboration plays a strategic and potential role in reinforcing the foundations of quality management and supporting institutional recovery and improvement following periods of resilience. Effective partnerships between parents and educational institutions are shown to enhance service quality, strengthen institutional components, and build a positive organizational image through both internal and external social relationships. Furthermore, in the context of boarding school–based institutions, intensive institutional objectives foster stronger branding ties between parents and schools, contributing to sustainable quality improvement and long-term institutional resilience.

Abstract

The rapid development of digital technology presents new ethical challenges in education, such as social media misuse and low digital moral awareness. This study aims to examine how Islamic Education (PAI) values can be integrated into school curricula to foster students’ digital ethics, while considering educational management dimensions. A qualitative descriptive approach was employed, utilizing in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and document analysis involving teachers, students, and school leaders. The findings reveal three main patterns: internalization of spiritual values through digital literacy, cross-subject collaboration in applying Islamic values, and habituation of digital ethics within the school culture. Integrating PAI values enhances students’ moral awareness and digital responsibility. The study’s contribution lies in proposing a value-based curriculum model that aligns spiritual education with digital competence. Practically, schools are encouraged to strengthen teacher training and implement curriculum policies that promote ethically responsible digital literacy.
