Abstract

Teacher performance is a critical determinant of educational quality, particularly in private schools that emphasize institutional effectiveness and accountability. This study aims to examine the effect of monetary incentives, teacher competence, and principal leadership style on teacher performance. A quantitative approach was employed using a causal research design to test the hypothesized relationships among variables. The study involved 60 teachers selected through a saturated sampling technique. Data were collected using structured questionnaires and analyzed using Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with SmartPLS version 4. The results indicate that monetary incentives have a positive but not significant effect on teacher performance, while teacher competence and principal leadership style have positive and significant effects on teacher performance. Furthermore, the three variables simultaneously exert a significant influence on teacher performance. These findings imply that improving teacher performance should prioritize the enhancement of teacher competence and effective leadership practices rather than relying solely on financial incentives, thereby providing important insights for educational management and policy development in private educational institutions

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effects of organizational restructuring and work engagement on employee performance, with job satisfaction as a mediating variable. This research uses a quantitative approach, employing descriptive and verificatory methods through a survey. The population consists of all employees in the Sales Division affected by organizational restructuring, and a saturated sampling technique was applied. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire with a five-point Likert scale and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS). The results show that organizational restructuring, work engagement, job satisfaction, and employee performance are generally in the very high category. Hypothesis testing reveals that organizational restructuring does not have a direct significant effect on employee performance. In contrast, work engagement has a positive and significant effect on employee performance. Furthermore, organizational restructuring and work engagement have a positive and significant effect on job satisfaction, and job satisfaction significantly influences employee performance. Mediation analysis confirms that job satisfaction mediates the relationship between organizational restructuring and employee performance, as well as between work engagement and employee performance. These findings indicate that improving employee performance requires not only structural changes but also efforts to enhance work engagement and job satisfaction to achieve sustainable performance outcomes.

Abstract

The integration of Tahfiz and Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) curricula necessitates dual competencies for teachers, frequently precipitating excessive workloads and professional burnout, and potentially jeopardizing the objectives of the National Tahfiz Education Policy (DPTN) 2.0. This research aims to analyze the leadership strategies at Ma'had Tahfiz Vokasional Aman Bistari (MTVAB), Malaysia, in mitigating these challenges. Utilizing an exploratory single case study design, data were collected through methodological triangulation involving in-depth interviews, participant observation, and document review, and were subsequently analyzed using the Miles, Huberman, and Saldana model. The results reveal the implementation of a "Value-Based Hybrid Leadership" model that synergizes three key strategies: (1) Visionary-Spiritual Leadership by the founder who performs "Meaning Reframing" of workloads as "Educational Jihad"; (2) Structured Instructional Leadership by the Principal who standardizes mentoring methods to reduce teachers' "Extraneous Cognitive Load"; and (3) Strategic Partnerships as resource buffers. This study concludes that the synergy between transcendental motivation and structured operational support successfully transforms the "dual burden" into "dual competence," thereby enriching the Job Demands-Resources (JD-R) model within the Islamic education ecosystem.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the potential of metaverse-based learning in facilitating the exploration of the Islamic mosaic and enhancing students’ understanding within Islamic Religious Education (Pendidikan Agama Islam, PAI). Employing a qualitative case study approach, the research involved purposively selected students participating in PAI courses. Data were collected through classroom observations, in-depth interviews, and document analysis, and were analyzed using coding, thematic analysis, and interpretative techniques. The findings reveal that the integration of the metaverse creates an interactive and immersive learning environment that supports students’ engagement with the diverse and complex dimensions of Islamic teachings. From an educational management perspective, effective instructional planning, learning organization, and the facilitative role of PAI teachers were found to be crucial in optimizing metaverse utilization. Furthermore, the metaverse encourages reflective learning and collaborative interaction, contributing to deeper religious understanding. The study implies that the strategic management of digital learning environments is essential to ensure that metaverse-based PAI learning remains pedagogically effective and value-oriented. These findings offer practical insights for educators and institutions in developing innovative and well-managed Islamic Religious Education models in the digital era.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of deep learning implementation on elementary students’ learning outcomes from a learning management perspective. Deep learning is understood as a pedagogical approach that promotes meaningful learning through active student engagement, critical and reflective thinking, collaboration, and strengthened conceptual understanding, aligning with the demands of 21st-century education. The study employed a quantitative approach using a quasi-experimental one-group pretest–posttest design. The research participants were fifth-grade students who experienced a structured deep learning process before progressing to the next grade level. Data were collected using a standardized cognitive achievement test with adequate content validity and high reliability (Cronbach’s Alpha > 0.80). Statistical analyses included descriptive statistics, the Shapiro–Wilk normality test, and a paired sample t-test. The results revealed a significant improvement in students’ learning outcomes after the implementation of deep learning, as indicated by a statistically significant difference between pretest and posttest scores (p < 0.05). These findings imply that deep learning can serve as an effective instructional strategy that strengthens learning management practices, particularly in planning, implementing, and evaluating instruction to improve learning quality in elementary education.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the role of Village-Owned Enterprises (BUMDes) in enhancing Village Original Revenue (PADes) through the application of good governance principles, namely cooperativeness, emancipatory values, participation, transparency, and accountability. The research employed a qualitative descriptive approach to capture an in-depth understanding of governance practices and their implications for village economic performance. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, direct observation, and document analysis involving village government officials, BUMDes managers, and community members. The results indicate that BUMDes contributes significantly to increasing village revenue through the management of rental-based business units, such as equipment and service facilities, which are responsive to community needs. The implementation of cooperative principles is reflected in strong collaboration among stakeholders, while emancipatory practices ensure equal access and non-discriminatory services for all community members. Participatory governance is evident in community involvement throughout the planning, implementation, and evaluation processes. Transparency and accountability are demonstrated through open financial reporting and periodic performance accountability reports. Beyond financial contributions, BUMDes also generates broader socio-economic impacts, including community empowerment, employment opportunities, and the stimulation of local economic activities. These findings imply that strengthening governance-oriented management within Village-Owned Enterprises is crucial for ensuring sustainable village development and maximizing the contribution of local economic institutions to village financial independence.

Abstract

The rapid development of Generation Z in the digital era poses significant challenges to the internalisation of religious values, thereby necessitating a holistic and adaptive model of Islamic education. This study aims to examine the role and contribution of the religious ecosystem of Islamic boarding schools (pesantren) and Islamic Religious Education (PAI) in shaping the religious character of Generation Z. Employing a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach, this study analyses 40 peer-reviewed articles published between 2017 and 2025 and retrieved from Google Scholar, Scopus, Web of Science, ERIC, and DOAJ. Data were analysed through a structured process of article selection, thematic categorisation, and comparative synthesis. The findings reveal that the religious ecosystem of Islamic boarding schools, when integrated with PAI, plays a strategic role in internalising values of faith, piety, and moral conduct through role modelling, religious habituation, and the cultivation of a sustainable religious culture. These findings highlight the capacity of pesantren to foster holistic religious character formation that addresses both spiritual and psychological dimensions of Generation Z. The study implies that Islamic boarding schools remain a relevant and effective model of religious character education capable of responding to the moral and psychological challenges faced by contemporary youth in the digital era.

Abstract

This study aims to describe sixth-grade students’ behavior toward school discipline and to identify factors influencing disciplinary behavior from an educational management perspective. A qualitative approach with a case study design was employed. Data were collected through classroom observations, semi-structured interviews, and document analysis involving sixth-grade students, classroom teachers, and the school principal. The findings reveal that students’ disciplinary behavior can be classified into three levels: high, moderate, and low. While some students demonstrate consistent discipline, such as punctual attendance and compliance with school regulations, others exhibit indiscipline, including tardiness and neglect of cleanliness rules. Factors influencing disciplinary behavior include self-awareness, motivation, mindset, peer influence, family environment, and the effectiveness of school management practices, particularly leadership, rule enforcement, and school culture. The study implies that fostering student discipline cannot rely solely on punitive sanctions but requires systematic educational management strategies, including positive habituation, role modeling by teachers and school leaders, and collaborative partnerships between schools and parents. Strengthening managerial planning and supervision is essential to support sustainable disciplinary development in elementary education.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the mediating role of work engagement in the relationship between workload, work environment, and Generation Z employee performance. A quantitative approach was employed using purposive sampling, involving 100 Generation Z employees working in the service sector. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and analyzed using Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with SmartPLS software. The analysis procedures included tests of construct validity and reliability, structural model evaluation, and mediation analysis using the bootstrapping method. The results indicate that workload and work environment have positive and significant effects on Generation Z employee performance. The work environment also shows a significant positive effect on work engagement, whereas the effect of workload on work engagement is moderate. Furthermore, work engagement partially mediates the relationship between work environment and employee performance but does not mediate the effect of workload on performance. The R² value of 0.649 demonstrates that the proposed model explains 64.9% of the variance in Generation Z employee performance. These findings highlight the importance of fostering a supportive work environment and managing workload effectively to enhance work engagement and performance among Generation Z employees.
