Abstract

The leadership of school principals is a strategic factor in improving the quality of education at elementary schools. Various studies have shown that transformational leadership has a positive influence on teacher performance and the quality of learning. However, most studies still focus on leadership styles and have not examined transformational leadership as a structured managerial process. This study aims to analyze the management of transformational leadership by school principals in efforts to improve the quality of education at elementary schools through a multi-site study approach. The research employs a qualitative approach with a phenomenological design at two elementary schools, namely SD Negeri Kiduldalem 1 Bangil and SD Swasta Nahdlatul Ulama Bangil, Pasuruan Regency. Data collection techniques included in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation. Data analysis was conducted using the Miles and Huberman interactive model. The results show that the school principals apply transformational leadership through quality program planning, human resource organization, supportive academic supervision, and continuous evaluation. Differences in the context of public and private schools affect managerial flexibility; however, both schools demonstrate the significant contribution of transformational leadership to improving the quality of education. This study concludes that systematic and contextual management of transformational leadership can be the main driver of improving elementary school education quality.

Abstract

Educational challenges in the 21st century have become increasingly complex in line with the rapid development of technology and artificial intelligence, requiring educational institutions to prepare graduates who are not only proficient in technical skills but also possess strong character and higher-order thinking competencies. Vocational High Schools (Sekolah Menengah Kejuruan/SMK) as vocational education institutions are required to integrate 21st-century character values, including critical thinking, creativity, communication, and collaboration (4C), into the learning process. This study aims to examine the implementation of the integration of 4C character values through the application of the deep learning method in Civic Education (Pendidikan Kewarganegaraan/PKn) learning at SMKN 2 Sukorejo, as well as to identify the supporting and inhibiting factors in its implementation. This research employed a qualitative approach with a descriptive design. Data were collected through observations, interviews, and documentation. The results indicate that the application of the deep learning method in Civic Education learning is able to facilitate students in critically analyzing civic issues, fostering creativity in formulating solutions, enhancing communication skills, and strengthening collaboration through contextual and collaborative learning. Supporting factors include teacher readiness, a conducive school climate, and the relevance of learning materials, while the constraints encountered include limited instructional time and differences in students’ abilities. This study confirms that the deep learning method has the potential to serve as a strategic approach to strengthening 21st-century character development among vocational high school students.

Abstract

Contemporary Islamic education faces serious challenges related to moral degradation, the weakening of social empathy, low self-control, and declining discipline among students, particularly in the context of globalization and digital culture. This article aims to analyze the values of character education contained in the hadith of the Prophet Muhammad through a thematic study using the perspective of living sunnah. This study employs a qualitative approach with library research, focusing on thematic (maudhu‘i) analysis of hadith related to character education. Primary data are drawn from selected prophetic hadiths and supported by secondary sources, including scholarly books and journal articles discussing living sunnah, character education, and contemporary educational issues. The data are analyzed by classifying the hadiths according to the main themes of character education and interpreting them within the framework of living sunnah. The findings indicate that the concept of living sunnah views hadith as living values that are internalized through the habituation of attitudes and behaviors. The thematic analysis reveals three core character values, such as social character and empathy, self-control, and manners and discipline, which are closely interconnected in shaping students’ moral integrity, emotional maturity, and sense of responsibility. The study concludes that character education based on living sunnah offers a relevant and contextual framework for addressing contemporary moral challenges by transforming prophetic teachings into lived ethical practices.

Abstract

This research aims to analyse forms of juvenile delinquency in Indonesia through the perspective of humanistic theory, and to examine the relevance of the Love-Based Curriculum as a preventive and curative solution to juvenile delinquency. Through a qualitative-descriptive approach, data was collected through case analysis of digital newspapers, then analysed by comparing adolescent behavioural patterns against humanistic theories from experts. The research findings indicate that juvenile delinquency stems from unmet needs for affection, social acceptance, and self-esteem. A curriculum based on love is seen as capable of being a preventive strategy by instilling values of affection and acceptance in the education sector, and as a curative solution through empathetic guidance that can restore adolescents’ sense of self-worth. The implications of this research require a reformulation of the direction of national education towards a humanistic approach to create a generation of young people who are characterised by love and social responsibility.

Abstract

This study analyzes the dynamics of ushul fiqh in the formulation of contemporary Islamic law through an in-depth examination of four ijtihad methodologies: istihsan, maslahah mursalah, 'urf, and sadd al-zari'ah. The research employs a library research approach with content analysis methods applied to classical and contemporary ushul fiqh literature. Data is collected from primary sources, including classical ushul fiqh texts, and secondary sources such as relevant journals, books, and scholarly articles. The analysis is conducted descriptively-comparatively to identify the characteristics, applications, and relevance of each methodology in the context of contemporary Islamic law. The findings indicate that all four methods exhibit significant flexibility and applicability in addressing contemporary legal issues. Istihsan provides more just legal solutions through a substantive justice approach, maslahah mursalah allows for the formulation of laws based on public interests not explicitly mentioned in the texts, 'urf accommodates the social and cultural values of society, and sadd al-zari'ah serves as a preventive measure against potential harm. This research reveals that integrating these four methods within the framework of maqasid al-shari'ah can result in responsive, progressive legal rulings that remain rooted in the foundational principles of shari'ah. The study recommends the development of a methodological framework that integrates these four methods as an alternative solution to address the complexities of contemporary Islamic legal issues.

Abstract

The rapid development of science in the contemporary era demands a deep understanding of its philosophical foundations. This article aims to examine the foundations of scientific development from the perspective of the philosophy of science by analyzing its ontological, epistemological, and axiological dimensions. The research method uses a qualitative approach with a literature review of classical and contemporary philosophy of science texts. The results of the study indicate that the ontological foundation provides an understanding of the nature of the reality studied by science, the epistemological foundation governs the way to acquire valid knowledge, while the axiological foundation determines the values and objectives of scientific development. These three foundations are interconnected and form a comprehensive framework for the responsible development of science. This research reveals that the integration of these three philosophical dimensions is essential to produce knowledge that is not only methodologically valid but also socially and ethically meaningful. The practical implication is the need for a holistic approach in scientific research that considers philosophical aspects alongside technical-methodological ones.

Abstract

In Islamic management, the concept of directing (taujih) plays a crucial role in guiding the direction and alignment of organizational activities to ensure they operate effectively and efficiently. This article discusses the concept of taujih from an Islamic perspective, grounded in the principles of the Qur’an and Hadith, along with examples of its implementation in the leadership of Prophet Muhammad SAW and the Khulafa' al-Rashidin. Taujih is understood as the role of a leader in providing guidance, direction, and moral encouragement to organizational members in order to achieve the established goals. Tansiq, on the other hand, is defined as the process of adjusting and harmonizing the tasks, functions, and responsibilities of individuals and work units to create organizational synergy. Islamic values such as justice, wisdom (hikmah), brotherhood (ukhuwah), openness, and consultation (shura) form the foundational principles in applying this concept. This article also identifies various challenges that often arise in the implementation of taujih and tansiq, such as internal conflicts, weak communication, and unclear role structures. As a solution, Islam emphasizes the principles of consultation (shura), proportional task distribution, and strengthening solidarity and collaboration. The implementation of taujih and tansiq in accordance with Islamic values is expected to enhance organizational effectiveness, strengthen work solidarity, and present an ethical and spiritually-oriented leadership model.

Abstract

Islamic boarding schools (pesantren) are the oldest educational institutions in Indonesia and serve as the main pillar of Nusantara Islam, a model of Islam that is harmonious with local culture. In this era of disruption, pesantren face dual challenges: the demands of formal education standards and the massive wave of digitalization. This research employs a qualitative method with a Literature Review approach, using primary data obtained from scholarly journals, while secondary data refers to sources such as the internet, theses, dissertations, and relevant books. The findings reveal that the existence of traditional pesantren as the cornerstone of Nusantara Islamic Education lies in their ability to maintain moral and intellectual autonomy amidst the forces of modernity. The strategy employed by traditional pesantren in carrying out this collaboration is often referred to in the Islamic jurisprudence maxim: "Al-muhafazhatu ‘ala al-qadimi al-shalih wa al-akhdzu bi al-jadidi al-ashlah" (Preserving the good of old traditions and adopting better new traditions). In conclusion, pesantren, from a genealogical perspective, are highly adaptive educational institutions. The existence of pesantren in the era of globalization greatly depends on their ability to integrate traditional and modern curricula.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the differences in leadership styles and performance between definitive school principals and Acting (PLT) principals in public schools in Sukorejo District, Pasuruan Regency. The main focus of this research is to identify how the difference in leadership status affects decision-making, management stability, and the effectiveness of school program management. Theoretically, this research is based on transformational and instructional leadership concepts, which are believed to play an essential role in improving the quality of learning and student achievement. Based on the qualitative data analysis obtained from interviews and observations, it was found that definitive school principals have a more stable and consistent leadership style and are more flexible in planning long-term programs. On the other hand, Acting principals face limitations in authority and tenure, which affects their ability to make strategic decisions. These findings indicate that the stability of a definitive principal’s leadership is directly related to successful management and consistent educational outcomes in schools. This research is expected to contribute to a deeper understanding of the differences in principal status and its impact on the effectiveness of school management.

Abstract

This research is driven by the urgent need to address moral degradation among students by integrating local wisdom into the character education framework. The study aims to analyze the role of teachers in managing character education based on local wisdom through a multi-site study at SDN Ledug 1 and its affiliated sites. Specifically, it examines how teachers plan, implement, and evaluate character-building activities that laverage indigenous values  to foster student integrity and cultural identity. A qualitative approach with a multi – site study design is employed, utilizing data collection techniques such as in-dept interviews, participant observation, and documentation analysis. Data validity is ensured through source and method triangulation, while cross-site analysis is used to identifty patterns in teacher roles across different contexts. The findings are expected to reveal that teachers act as role models, motivators, and evaluators who successfully bridge traditional values with modern pedagogical prctices. This management process creates a synchronized educational environment where local wisdom serves as the primary foundation for student behavior. The results of this study are intended to provide a strategic model for schools to strengthen character education by optimizing the professional role of the teacher within a culturally relevant management system.
