Abstract

This study aims to analyze strategic management in the management of statistical partners at the BPS Office in Padang Panjang City based on four main management functions: planning, organizing, implementing, and supervising. The main problems in partner management include a rushed recruitment process, incomplete training, limited field supervision, and the lack of routine evaluation. This study used a descriptive qualitative method with interviews with key informants, such as BPS officials and statistical partners. The results showed that in terms of planning, the implementation of an annual recruitment system was considered more efficient, although the selection process was not optimal. The management team has been organized, but is still hampered by workload and a lack of human resources. The implementation of tasks by partners refers to an annual contract, but there are still disparities in quality and work motivation. Supervision is not optimal due to the limited number of field supervisors. Internal and external factors such as a lack of BPS human resources and low public trust. Therefore, a comprehensive improvement in management strategy is needed so that the management of statistical partners can run more effectively and sustainably.

Abstract

Clinical supervision is a professional support process provided to teachers to address instructional challenges through systematic steps involving lesson planning, observation of teaching behavior, and subsequent analysis and follow-up. This study employed a School Action Research method, collecting data through observation, field notes, and documentation. The research examined the principal’s efforts to improve teacher performance through clinical supervision. Findings revealed a steady and significant improvement in teacher performance, with scores increasing from 58.2% prior to intervention to 70.1% after the first cycle, and further rising to 83.7% after the second cycle. These results demonstrate that clinical supervision not only enhances teacher competence but also contributes to improved student learning outcomes. The observed improvements stemmed from more thorough lesson planning, effective classroom delivery, and better utilization of learning resources. This study reaffirms clinical supervision as an effective professional development strategy, capable of fostering continuous improvement in teaching quality and creating optimal learning conditions for students.

Abstract

Indonesian pesantren play a pivotal role in Islamic education, particularly in shaping the moral and spiritual character of the younger generation. Amid rapid modernization and technological advancement, pesantren are challenged to remain relevant while preserving their traditional values. This study examines the Qur’anic learning model at Pondok Pesantren Zainul Hasan Genggong, which integrates classical methods such as bandongan, sorogan, and wetonan with innovative, technology-based approaches. Employing a descriptive qualitative method, data were collected through observations, in-depth interviews, and documentation involving teachers and students. Findings reveal that the synergy between tradition and innovation enhances the quality of Qur’anic instruction, broadens access to global Islamic scholarship, and strengthens students’ moral and spiritual foundations. From a management perspective, this integration demonstrates how adaptive leadership, resource optimization, and strategic curriculum design can preserve institutional identity while fostering innovation. The model offers a replicable framework for developing holistic, context-sensitive Islamic education systems capable of navigating both heritage preservation and future readiness.

Abstract

This study aimed to enhance young children’s gross motor skills through the traditional “Cat and Mouse” game, which fosters agility, balance, speed, and coordination. Adopting the Kemmis and McTaggart Classroom Action Research model, the intervention was implemented over two cycles with 18 participants (8 girls and 10 boys). Data were gathered through structured observation and systematic note-taking. Results demonstrated marked improvement in gross motor performance, increasing from 44% before the intervention to 66% in the first cycle and 88% in the second cycle. These findings highlight the effectiveness of traditional games as pedagogical tools for physical development in early childhood. From a management perspective, incorporating culturally rooted, low-cost, and easily organized activities into curriculum planning not only enhances developmental outcomes but also improves efficiency in program implementation, resource allocation, and engagement strategies. This approach offers an adaptable model for educators and administrators seeking to balance developmental objectives with practical management considerations.

Abstract

This study investigates the influence of leadership on employee work commitment at the Social Affairs Office of West Sumatra Province. The research aims to assess employee commitment levels, evaluate the leadership quality of the head of the department, and examine the significant effect of leadership on work commitment. Using a quantitative correlational design, the study involved 40 employees selected from a population of 67 through proportional random sampling. Data were collected via a Likert-scale questionnaire, preceded by a pilot test with 20 employees. Analysis using SPSS 27 revealed that employee commitment was high (88%) and leadership performance was good (85%). The correlation coefficient between leadership and work commitment was 0.392, indicating a significant positive relationship. The coefficient of determination showed that leadership accounted for 39.2% of the variance in work commitment. These findings highlight the substantial role of effective leadership in enhancing employee commitment within public sector organizations, particularly in the Social Affairs Office of West Sumatra Province.

Abstract

This study examines the strategic role of madrasah ibtidaiyah in strengthening character education to shape students’ ethics and morals from an early age, particularly amid growing concerns over moral degradation among the younger generation. Adopting a qualitative case study approach, data were collected through participatory observation, in-depth interviews with teachers, principals, and students, as well as analysis of learning documents and school programs. The research focuses on the application of a behavioristic approach, emphasizing habituation and reinforcement in shaping student behavior. Findings reveal that character values—such as discipline, responsibility, politeness, and honesty—are integrated into both classroom instruction and daily school routines, including greetings, congregational prayers, and community service. Positive reinforcement through rewards and corrective measures via punishment are applied consistently to encourage desired behaviors. Continuous repetition, modeling, and reinforcement are found to be effective in embedding these values, creating a systematic and well-directed framework for moral and ethical development. The study concludes that a behavioristic approach, when implemented strategically within a religious-based elementary education setting, offers a practical and impactful method for fostering students’ character, ensuring alignment between moral values and daily conduct.

Abstract

This study aims to identify strategies, barriers, and the impact of community empowerment on stunting prevention and provide recommendations for strengthening community-based programs. The method employed was a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) of scientific publications from 2018 to 2025, obtained through Google Scholar, with strict selection based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. The analysis results indicate that community empowerment is carried out through three stages: building awareness, increasing capacity, and facilitating independence. Activities include nutrition education, childcare training, yard utilisation, and the formation of local food business groups. The main obstacles faced were low community participation, limited facilities, and socio-cultural constraints. Positive impacts include increased nutritional knowledge, improved healthy lifestyles, and family economic independence. This study emphasises the importance of educational management in the success of the empowerment program. Relevant curriculum management, ongoing training, and data-driven evaluation are key to increasing community capacity and ensuring program sustainability. Cross-sector collaboration and a locally focused, potential-based approach are necessary for achieving long-term benefits.

Abstract

This research was motivated by the fact that some students still behave impolitely when speaking to their peers. Some speak loudly, while others use profanity or social media slang (e.g., “anjay,” “you ask”). This study employs a concurrent mixed-method approach, combining quantitative and qualitative data through questionnaires, observations, interviews, and documentation. The population consisted of 2,663 students, with a sample of 95 determined using the Yamane/Slovin formula. Quantitative data were analyzed using SPSS, while qualitative data underwent condensation, presentation, and conclusion drawing/verification. Results show that teachers’ Human Resources (HR) and parenting quality significantly influence children’s manners. Teachers’ HR mostly met good criteria (68%), parenting quality was mostly very good (70%), and children’s manners were mostly very good (60%). There is a significant influence between teachers’ HR and children’s manners, as well as between parenting quality and manners. Managerial implications suggest that educational institutions should integrate HR management strategies—such as targeted training, performance evaluation, and supportive work environments—to strengthen teachers’ interpersonal and pedagogical skills. This alignment between HR policies and classroom practices can foster a culture of courtesy, thereby shaping students into individuals with strong moral character.

Abstract

This study examines how Social Media Marketing (SMM), Green Consumer Behavior (GCB), and Fashion Involvement (FI) influence Generation Z’s thrifting purchase decisions in Sumbawa Regency. Driven by the rise of the digital economy, growing social media use, and increasing sustainable fashion trends, the research applies an explanatory quantitative method with a cross-sectional design. A purposive sample of 100 Gen Z respondents completed a validated 5-point Likert scale questionnaire. Data were analyzed using multiple linear regression after classical assumption testing. Findings reveal that SMM, GCB, and FI each have a positive and significant effect on thrifting purchase decisions, both individually and collectively. FI emerges as the strongest driver, showing that passion, interest, and engagement in fashion most strongly shape buying behavior. SMM enhances product awareness and fosters interactive relationships, while GCB motivates eco-conscious choices. These insights offer strategic value for thrifting businesses in non-metropolitan areas: leverage digital platforms for targeted engagement, promote sustainability narratives, and align product offerings with evolving youth fashion trends.
