Abstract

This study explores the role of Islamic Religious Education (PAI) in character formation, particularly in the context of the Independent Curriculum and integrated Islamic schools. The research highlights the importance of religious activities, such as Tadarus (Quran recitation), in fostering a disciplined, focused classroom atmosphere, while also integrating key character values, such as religiosity, discipline, responsibility, honesty, and noble morality, into the curriculum and teaching practices, by using a qualitative case study approach with observation, interviews, and documentation. The findings reveal that while religious practices and value discussions engage students, self-reflection remains moderate, suggesting the need for a more systematic approach to foster deeper personal reflection. The study’s contribution lies in providing a comprehensive framework for managing PAI learning, emphasizing the integration of character education within Islamic schools. Future research should explore the impact of socio-cultural contexts, technology integration, and enhanced self-reflection on character development strategies in PAI education.

Abstract

This study examines the integration of Islamic epistemology in educational planning to align traditional Islamic values ​​with the demands of modern education. The background of this research concerns the challenges posed by globalization and technological developments to education, while Islamic education faces the need to maintain the authenticity of its monotheistic values. The purpose of this study is to analyze how Islamic epistemology, encompassing revelation, reason, and experience, can be applied to adaptive, relevant educational planning. The method is a qualitative approach, grounded in primary and secondary literature, to explore fundamental theories and their applications in Islamic education. The results show that integrating revelation, reason, and experience in Islamic educational planning creates a holistic approach that is relevant to current developments. This study also found that many Islamic educational institutions still face difficulties in integrating Islamic epistemology. This study concludes that to achieve the goals of holistic Islamic education, Islamic epistemology must be integrated into educational policies and practices. The contribution of this study is to offer a more integrated model of Islamic educational planning, grounded in Islamic epistemology and relevant to global demands.

Abstract

Islamic Religious Higher Education Institutions (PTKI) in Indonesia face significant challenges in enhancing their competitiveness, independence, and adaptation to global educational changes. PTKI must address the gap between the global education system and their limited internal capacity, such as limited funding, inadequate infrastructure, and a shortage of skilled human resources. This study aims to develop a comprehensive governance model for PTKI that integrates academic autonomy, digital transformation, and strategic partnerships to enhance their global competitiveness. The research method used is a qualitative descriptive-analytical approach with case studies. The results show that BLU status provides flexibility in resource management, but challenges remain in integrating Islamic values ​​with the demands of educational modernization. This study concludes that PTKI must strengthen academic autonomy and seek sustainable financing models to achieve independence. The contribution of this research is to provide a strategic framework for the development of PTKI that balances tradition and modernity.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of salary and work environment on employee work productivity. The research focuses on determining whether salary and work environment partially and simultaneously influence productivity and identifying the extent of their contributions. This quantitative research uses a causal associative approach, with a population of 61 employees selected through a census sampling technique. Data were collected using questionnaires, observations, and documentation, and analyzed through multiple linear regression, t-test, F-test, and the coefficient of determination (R²) using SPSS version 27. The results show that salary and work environment both have a positive and significant effect on employee productivity, demonstrated by the t-test results where salary (X1) and work environment (X2) significantly influence productivity (Y) with sig. < 0.05. The simultaneous F-test also indicates a significant effect, and the adjusted R² value of 0.509 shows that 50.9% of productivity is influenced by both variables. These findings imply the importance of fair compensation and conducive work conditions in improving employee performance and supporting strategic human resource management to increase organizational productivity.

Abstract

Changes in the global economic structure and the acceleration of digitalization have led to increasingly fierce competition in the job market, requiring students to have strong psychological readiness to face academic pressures and business challenges. In this context, psychological capital is a crucial factor that can support psychological well-being, or flourishing, for students engaged in entrepreneurial activities. This study aims to determine the relationship between psychological capital and flourishing in entrepreneurial students at the higher education level. The study used a quantitative correlational approach with a sample of 122 students from Surabaya State University selected through a purposive sampling technique. Data were collected using the CPC-12 and PERMA-Profiler, then analyzed using the Spearman correlation test. The results showed a positive and significant relationship between psychological capital and flourishing (ρ = 0.360; p < 0.001). This finding indicates that the higher the self-efficacy, hope, optimism, and psychological resilience of students, the higher their perceived level of psychological well-being. This study provides practical implications for universities to develop psychological capital strengthening programs to improve mental readiness, academic engagement, and student business success.

Abstract

This study explores the impact of rewards and work discipline on employee productivity, a leading food and beverage manufacturing company. The research aims to analyse how rewards influence productivity, with work discipline acting as a mediator. A quantitative, causal design was employed, using questionnaires, interviews, and observations to collect data from 100 respondents. The findings indicate that rewards, particularly performance-based incentives and bonuses, positively affect work discipline, thereby enhancing productivity. However, base salary adjustments and bonus transparency were found to be suboptimal. Work discipline, especially in areas such as safety compliance and task completion, plays a crucial mediating role in translating rewards into higher productivity. The study recommends restructuring reward systems to prioritise performance-based incentives while reinforcing discipline in critical areas. The research contributes to a deeper understanding of how rewards and discipline interact to improve manufacturing productivity, providing actionable insights for HR management in similar industries.

Abstract

Improving teacher performance is crucial for enhancing the quality of education in madrasahs. This study aims to explore the implementation of a coaching and mentoring model to improve teacher performance, with a focus on sustainable professional development. This research employs a qualitative design with a descriptive approach, utilising participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation analysis to collect data. The results indicate that the integrated coaching-mentoring model, consisting of diagnostic, development, and reflection phases, has successfully improved teachers’ professional, pedagogical, and social competencies. However, challenges such as time constraints and inadequate mentor training hinder its full effectiveness. In conclusion, coaching and mentoring implemented at madrasah have contributed to creating a collaborative and reflective work culture, but improvements are needed in mentor training and enhancing teachers’ reflective capacities. This study offers new insights into the application of coaching and mentoring grounded in Islamic values in madrasah settings, providing a sustainable model for teacher development in Islamic educational institutions.

Abstract

This study investigates the significant sources of stress experienced by students learning English in a non-English-speaking academic environment. Previous research indicates that English learners in EFL settings often encounter psychological, linguistic, and sociocultural barriers that impede the development of proficiency, particularly when institutions mandate English as the medium of instruction. In line with this context, the Sunan Doe Institute has implemented intensive English policies, yet many learners continue to report anxiety and performance pressure. This mixed-method study involved 150 students at three proficiency levels and 10 English lecturers, employing surveys, interviews, focus group discussions, and classroom observations to obtain comprehensive data. Quantitatively, the results reveal that fear of negative evaluation, low self-efficacy, and peer comparison are the most significant psychological stressors. Linguistic challenges, particularly pronunciation accuracy, grammatical mastery, and limited vocabulary, emerged as additional pressure points. Environmental and cultural factors, including limited English exposure, unfamiliar cultural references, and insufficient interactive practices, further elevate students’ anxiety. Qualitative findings reinforce these patterns, showing that low confidence and constrained opportunities for authentic communication hinder progress across proficiency levels. The study contributes to a deeper understanding of stress dynamics in EFL contexts and recommends culturally responsive, supportive, and interaction-rich pedagogical strategies to strengthen learner motivation and well-being.
