Abstract

This study aims to explore the implementation of religious moderation values as a preventive measure against radicalism in Islamic elementary education. The research adopts a qualitative case study approach. Data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documents. The Findings show that key values such as tasamuh (tolerance), tawassuth (moderation), i’tidal (balance), and muwathanah (civic responsibility) are systematically embedded in formal learning, religious practices, and school culture. Teachers and principals play vital roles as role models and facilitators who promote inclusive dialogue and critical thinking. Contextual teaching methods—such as open discussion, case studies, and reflective practice—help students internalize these values beyond theoretical understanding. Extracurricular activities further support character formation by encouraging cooperation, leadership, and respect for diversity. However, implementation is challenged by the absence of specific instructional materials, limited teacher training in diversity education, and the influence of unregulated digital content that may expose students to radical narratives. This study highlights the importance of incorporating religious moderation into Islamic elementary education as a means to counter radicalization. The findings suggest that educational institutions should prioritize teacher training, develop specific teaching materials, and enhance digital literacy to safeguard students from radical influences.

Abstract

Early Childhood Education (ECE) represents a critical stage in shaping the holistic development of children. Despite its significance, existing studies tend to address ECE management in fragmented dimensions, lacking an integrated managerial framework. This study aims to synthesize diverse managerial approaches into a systemic framework focused on the foundational phase, to support the delivery of high-quality educational services. Employing a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) with an exploratory qualitative design, the research adheres to the PRISMA guidelines. Data were retrieved from scholarly databases including Google Scholar, Garuda, SINTA, and DOAJ, with inclusion criteria comprising open-access articles published between 2015 and 2025 that focus on ECE management. Thematic content analysis identified five key categories: curriculum and instruction, institutional management and leadership, teacher professionalism, holistic-integrative approaches, and strategic innovations. The findings reveal that high-quality ECE management during the foundational phase is underpinned by the integrated implementation of these five dimensions. The study concludes that a systematic and interconnected managerial approach is essential for enhancing ECE quality and provides practical implications for school administrators, policymakers, and educational researchers.

Abstract

This study aims to analyse the influence of psychological well-being and organisational climate on employee performance through job satisfaction, with a specific focus on the context of educational management. Using a quantitative approach with a survey method, the research involved 58 executive staff members—comprising general administrative officers, assistant treasurers, and data processors—selected through total sampling. Data were gathered via a structured questionnaire assessing psychological well-being, organisational climate, job satisfaction, and performance. The analysis employed descriptive statistics and Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) with Partial Least Squares (PLS). Results revealed that psychological well-being (β = 0.365, p = 0.056) and organisational climate (β = 0.168, p = 0.316) both have a positive but statistically insignificant impact on performance. However, these factors significantly influence job satisfaction (p = 0.000), which in turn significantly affects performance (β = 0.368, p = 0.012). The findings underscore the pivotal mediating role of job satisfaction in enhancing employee performance within educational institutions, highlighting the importance of fostering a supportive work environment and psychological well-being to improve outcomes in the education sector.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the tax revenue from the Land and Building Acquisition Fee (BPHTB) and its contribution to increasing Regional Original Income (PAD) in Situbondo Regency from 2022 to 2024. The research employs a descriptive qualitative method, collecting data through interviews, observations, and documentation. The results show that the contribution of BPHTB to PAD in Situbondo Regency has declined over the years. In 2022, it contributed 29.19%, decreasing to 26.06% in 2023, and further to 24.31% in 2024. This downward trend indicates the need for more adaptive fiscal policy strategies to optimize BPHTB revenue as a regional income source. Theoretically, this study provides important implications for the field of education, particularly in economics and public policy education. It offers a real-world understanding of the significance of local tax optimization in regional development. Additionally, the findings can serve as learning material in public economics or regional financial management courses, helping students understand the role of taxation in supporting sustainable regional growth.

Abstract

This study explores the role of Kiai in shaping the religious and social behaviors of the millennial generation within the community. As religious leaders adapt to modern challenges, the millennial generation’s engagement with spirituality has evolved, requiring innovative approaches in religious leadership. The research aims to investigate how Kiai leadership fosters religious devotion, social responsibility, and unity among his followers. Employing a qualitative case study approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and documentation. The findings reveal that Kiai serves as an exemplary figure (uswah hasanah), whose personal devotion and humility positively influence the members' religious practices and behaviors. His role as a socio-religious advisor has helped balance personal piety with social engagement, encouraging members to actively participate in charitable activities. Additionally, Kiai acts as a unifier of the community, fostering solidarity and inclusivity among members from diverse backgrounds. This research contributes to the understanding of contemporary Islamic leadership by demonstrating how Kiai multifaceted approach creates a transformative impact on millennial followers. It also recommends further research into similar non-formal religious communities to explore broader trends in modern Islamic leadership.

Abstract

This study examines the pivotal role of dormitory environment management in shaping and sustaining an immersive Arabic language environment at the Nurul Jadid Islamic Boarding School. Adopting a case study design with a qualitative approach, the study collected data through in-depth interviews, participatory observations, and document analysis. The data was analyzed using the Miles & Huberman technique, supported by triangulation to ensure the credibility of the findings. The results of the study show that the planning and implementation of structured Arabic language programs, including the teaching of mufradat, barnamij, muhadarah, and muhadatsah, is the primary foundation in stimulating active and sustainable use of Arabic. Dormitory management plays a vital role in aligning these programs with the daily routine of students, transforming the dormitory into a dynamic natural laboratory for language practice. The application of a comprehensive immersion model, which integrates Arabic into all aspects of religious and cultural life, significantly improves the language competence of students and forms strong language habits. The main conclusion confirms that the success of mastering the Arabic language is highly dependent on the creation of a holistic and integrated immersive ecosystem, with the management of the dormitory environment as a fundamental pillar. This research makes a theoretical contribution to second language acquisition and offers a practical model for similar educational institutions.

Abstract

The education system plays a vital role in society, especially in the transition from Education 4.0 to 5.0, where technology is increasingly integrated into learning. However, many educators still rely on monotonous methods that fail to engage students. This study aims to improve fourth-grade students' interest in IPAS by implementing the Team Games Tournament (TGT) interactive learning model in the 2024/2025 academic year. Based on classroom observations, the conventional approach was found to be less conducive to active learning. Using a quantitative method with random sampling, the research evaluates the impact of TGT on learning interest and outcomes. The results indicate that TGT can enhance student engagement and academic achievement. Educationally, the study supports the shift toward more interactive and student-centered models. From a management perspective, it underscores the need for innovation in instructional strategies and adaptive leadership in implementing engaging pedagogical methods. These findings underscore the importance of strategic planning and effective resource management in enhancing teaching quality and institutional performance.

Abstract

This study examines the influence of financial literacy, digital marketing, and network connections on entrepreneurial readiness among Generation Z. In the face of challenges such as the demographic bonus and high youth unemployment, entrepreneurial readiness is crucial for fostering economic independence. However, many young entrepreneurs, especially in rural areas, lack sufficient competency. A quantitative approach, utilizing a survey of 100 respondents, was employed, with data analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling with Partial Least SquaresSquares (SEM-PLS). The results revealed that financial literacy, digital marketing, and network connections have a positive and significant influence on entrepreneurial readiness. These variables collectively explained 71.5% of the variation in entrepreneurial readiness, with financial literacy having the most substantial impact, followed by network connections and digital marketing. The study's findings highlight the importance of a comprehensive entrepreneurship development strategy that integrates financial education, digital skills, and networking. In the education sector, the results emphasize the need for curricula that focus on financial literacy, digital marketing, and networking to equip students with the skills necessary for entrepreneurial success and to bridge the gap between education and the entrepreneurial ecosystem.

Abstract

This study examines the learning management approach of the Tartila method in enhancing students' Qur'an reading skills, in response to the challenge of improving the effectiveness of teaching Qur'an literacy in formal institutions. This study employs a case study design, collecting data through in-depth interviews, document analysis, and field findings, which are then analyzed thematically to enhance the credibility of the findings. The results showed that the management of the Tartila method was carried out systematically through careful planning, involving the classification of students and the preparation of certified teachers. This approach included structured implementation with spiritual opening activities, core sessions that combined classical and individual learning, and concise closing. The achievement of students' fluent reading of the Qur'an is monitored through various evaluation mechanisms, ranging from daily to comprehensive final exams, with an overall success rate of 68%. The main supporting factors include teacher competence, adequate facilities, and parental support, while inhibiting factors include teacher inconsistency, student indiscipline, and lack of monitoring from parents at home. The implications of this study include strategic recommendations for the development of more adaptive Qur'anic teaching practices and educational policies, as well as identifying crucial areas for future research to optimize the effectiveness of these learning methods.

Abstract

Student discipline plays a crucial role in the success of secondary schools, where academic and social pressures frequently give rise to behavioral challenges. Issues such as truancy, tardiness, and rule violations hinder learning and disrupt the educational environment. This study examines how strategic management can improve student discipline in secondary schools, employing a qualitative research approach. Data were gathered through literature reviews and case studies across several institutions. Key strategies include data-driven discipline planning, active student organization involvement (OSIS, MPK, Scouts), optimizing homeroom teacher roles by Ministry of Education Regulation No. 25 of 2024, implementing a point-based reward and punishment system, and utilizing digital attendance and monitoring tools. Findings show that when strategically implemented, these approaches foster a favorable, sustainable discipline climate, reduce infractions, and improve educational quality. The study emphasizes the significance of strong leadership, character education, and community collaboration in cultivating responsible and disciplined students who are well-equipped for future challenges.
