Bacground. The traditional lecture-based model of teaching in higher education has faced increasing criticism due to its limited engagement and ability to foster active learning. In response, the flipped classroom model has emerged as a promising alternative, where students engage with instructional content outside the classroom and use class time for collaborative and interactive activities. This pedagogical shift aims to enhance student learning outcomes, promote critical thinking, and increase overall engagement. Purpose. This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of flipped classroom models in higher education, focusing on their impact on student engagement, academic performance, and learning outcomes. Method: A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining quantitative analysis of student performance data with qualitative insights from surveys and interviews. A sample of 200 students from five different universities participated in flipped classroom courses, and their learning outcomes were compared to those of students in traditional lecture-based courses. Data were collected at the beginning and end of the semester to assess changes in engagement and academic performance. Results: The study found that students in flipped classrooms showed significantly higher levels of engagement and academic performance compared to their peers in traditional settings. Students reported increased satisfaction with the learning process, particularly in terms of collaborative learning and self-paced study. Conclusion: The flipped classroom model proves to be an effective strategy for enhancing student engagement and improving learning outcomes in higher education. This approach fosters a more active, student-centered learning environment that better prepares students for real-world challenges.

Background. Achievement in the world of education is identical to the achievement of student learning outcomes in academic or non-academic fields. The focus of education tends to be on output. It turns out that outstanding teachers are able to become an important element as producers of quality generations who are competitive at the global level and successful in their future lives. Purpose. The focus of the study aims to assess how much influence influencer leadership, digital transformation and social climate have on improving teacher achievement in building superior madrasas. Method. This study uses a descriptive quantitative approach with data analysis techniques using Smart-PLS to measure variables that influence and influence each other. The number of respondents in the study was 124 private madrasa teachers in Malang Regency with a liket scale measurement of 1-5. Analysis of the Cronbach's alpha value which is overall greater than 0.7 can explain the existence of a construct that is internally consistent and reliable in testing. Results. The results of the study showed that: (1) There is a significant influence between influencer leadership and improving teacher achievement; (2) there is a significant influence between digital transformation and improving teacher achievement and (3) there is no significant influence between social climate and improving teacher achievement. Conclusion. Predictively, researchers see that psychological factors in the form of self-efficacy have a greater influence than social climate in terms of improving teacher achievement. The dependent variables in this study have a significant influence of 54.2%. to the independent variable.

Background. This study explores teachers’ perceptions of the implementation of Ki Hajar Dewantara’s educational philosophy within the framework of the Independent Learning Curriculum. As Indonesia shifts toward a more student-centered educational model, rooted in the values of independence, critical thinking, and creativity, understanding teachers’ perspectives on integrating Dewantara’s philosophy is crucial. Purpose. Dewantara’s philosophy, which emphasizes freedom of learning and the development of students’ full potential, offers a valuable foundation for the Independent Learning Curriculum introduced by the Indonesian Ministry of Education. Method. The aim of this research is to analyze teachers’ views on how effectively the principles of Dewantara’s educational philosophy are being integrated into the curriculum, and the challenges and benefits they perceive in this process. A qualitative approach was used, involving in-depth interviews with 20 primary and secondary school teachers across various regions. Results.

Background. Parenting patterns play a critical role in the mental health and well-being of children, particularly during the school-age years when they experience significant emotional and social development. The way parents interact with their children, provide support, and set boundaries can either foster resilience or contribute to mental health challenges. Purpose. This study examines the influence of various parenting patterns—authoritative, authoritarian, permissive, and neglectful—on the mental health of school-age children. Method. The primary objective is to investigate how these parenting styles affect children’s emotional regulation, self-esteem, anxiety levels, and overall mental well-being. A quantitative research design was employed, using surveys administered to 400 parents of school-age children, complemented by psychological assessments of their children’s mental health. Results. The results indicate that authoritative parenting is positively associated with better mental health outcomes, including higher self-esteem and lower anxiety levels. In contrast, authoritarian and neglectful parenting were linked to increased anxiety and lower emotional regulation in children. Conclusion. The study concludes that parenting patterns significantly influence the mental health of school-age children, highlighting the importance of supportive, balanced parenting approaches. Interventions aimed at promoting authoritative parenting could contribute to improved mental well-being in children, particularly in academic and social contexts.
