Abstract

This study analyzes global research trends on Technology-Enhanced Learning (TEL) from 2020 to 2024 using a bibliometric mapping approach. Data were extracted from the Scopus database with the query TITLE-ABS-KEY (“technology-education” AND “learning”), yielding 747 valid documents consisting of journal articles, conference papers, and book chapters. The analysis employed Microsoft Excel, VOSviewer, and Biblioshiny to examine publication performance, collaboration networks, and thematic evolution. Results indicate a steady growth of research output, reflecting an increasing global commitment to educational transformation driven by digital innovation and artificial intelligence. The United States, China, and India emerged as the most productive countries, while leading sources such as Computers & Education and Educational Technology Research and Development dominated the publication landscape. Keyword co-occurrence mapping revealed seven thematic clusters, with e-learning, artificial intelligence, digital pedagogy, and STEM education as the most prominent themes. The findings highlight a paradigm shift from emergency remote learning during the pandemic to a sustainable integration of technology into pedagogical design. This study provides a foundational map for researchers and policymakers to navigate the evolving intellectual structure of TEL and highlights underexplored areas such as ethical AI implementation in Global South contexts and the limited empirical evidence on teacher readiness for advanced learning analytics.

Abstract

Global educational reforms increasingly emphasize critical thinking, yet Indonesian elementary schools continue to face challenges in realizing this shift within the Merdeka Curriculum. A key gap persists between curriculum expectations and classroom practice, especially in integrating local wisdom with deep learning approaches. This descriptive qualitative study involved 41 teachers and 77 students through interviews, focus group discussions, observations, and document analysis, framed by the FRISCO reasoning model. The findings show that teachers understand core deep learning principles linking, reflection, and evidence-based reasoning but their implementation is constrained by limited time, uneven technological access, and varying student readiness. Integrating local wisdom through environmental practices, folklore, and cultural traditions significantly increased student engagement and improved critical thinking (N-gain = 0.47), although technology remained underutilized for inquiry-based tasks. These results underscore the need for continuous professional development and the design of culturally grounded learning resources that synergize local content, the FRISCO framework, and technology to achieve curriculum goals. The novelty of this study lies in its holistic integration of cultural knowledge, deep learning pedagogy, and a structured reasoning framework within the Merdeka Curriculum context. Its contribution provides empirical evidence and a conceptual model for developing context-responsive IPAS learning designs that connect technology, culture, and higher-order thinking.

Abstract

This conceptual review synthesises and critically analyses recent literature on Design-Based Learning (DBL) in undergraduate engineering education. It examines how DBL is defined, how it is implemented and assessed, what strengths and recurring challenges are reported, and what these imply for teaching, programmes, and future research. A document-based search in Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar identified English, peer-reviewed studies published between 2018 and 2024; a small number of earlier design-oriented works were retained to anchor key concepts. The review shows that DBL is characterised by iteration on an authentic design brief, structured reflection, and collaboration, and that when these elements and their assessment are explicit, DBL supports student engagement, problem solving, and the early formation of engineering identity. It also notes implementation problems across settings, especially heavy assessment load, limited opportunity for multiple iterations within fixed timetables, and team tasks that reproduce participation hierarchies. By isolating DBL’s pedagogical identity from related approaches such as PBL and CBL, the review offers a balanced account and proposes an E–I–P–R alignment and a research agenda for longitudinal, multi-site, moderator-sensitive studies.

Abstract

This qualitative case study explores the intricate relationship between self-regulated learning (SRL) and critical thinking in a blended learning environment. Using a case study approach, the research aims to develop a substantive theory that explains the pedagogical mechanisms underlying the effectiveness of this modality. Data was collected from 34 participants through a 55-item SRL questionnaire, student interviews, and document analysis of critical thinking test results based on Ennis’s indicators. The study followed the core procedures of grounded theory, including open, axial, and selective coding. The findings led to the development of the Integrated Critical Stimulation conjecture, which posits that blended learning is a uniquely synergistic approach that effectively fosters critical thinking. This synergy is a “dual stimulus,” where the face-to-face component provides crucial scaffolding and real-time feedback, and the online component offers a space for autonomous practice and deep reflection. The study’s most significant finding is that this synergy is particularly effective for students with moderate SRL abilities, who benefit from the balanced support and autonomy the blended model provides. The conjecture suggests that a deliberate and strategic integration of modalities, tailored to student characteristics, is key to developing critical thinking skills.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the philosophical foundations of Islamic education and their role in shaping individuals who are intellectually competent, morally upright, and socially as well as spiritually responsible. Using a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach, this research systematically identifies and analyzes academic literature related to the fundamental concepts, scope, and influence of Islamic education philosophy on curriculum development and the Islamic education system. The results show that Islamic education philosophy emphasizes the balance between intellectual, spiritual, and moral aspects as a unified framework in the educational process. The study also identifies major challenges in applying Islamic educational philosophical principles in the modern era, including educational dualism, the impact of globalization, and the insufficient integration of Islamic values within existing curricula. These findings imply the urgent need for reconstructing the Islamic education system to ensure its relevance to contemporary developments while maintaining its essential values. The novelty of this study lies in its updated synthesis of recent literature, which provides a comprehensive mapping of current philosophical discourse in Islamic education. Meanwhile, its contribution is reflected in offering a structured analytical foundation that educators, policymakers, and curriculum developers can use to design integrative and adaptive Islamic education curricula.

Abstract

This study aims to map global research developments on experiential learning (EL) in higher education by employing a bibliometric approach. Experiential learning has gained increasing attention as a transformative pedagogy that connects theoretical understanding with real-world application. Research data were collected from the Scopus database for the years 2023–2025 and analyzed using VOSviewer and Biblioshiny to examine publication trends, citation patterns, author productivity, and thematic clusters. The findings reveal a sharp and consistent increase in EL-related publications worldwide, with the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom emerging as the most productive countries, while Southeast Asia—particularly Indonesia—shows relatively limited contributions. The analysis also identifies several emerging thematic clusters, including the integration of EL with immersive technologies such as artificial intelligence, virtual reality, and the metaverse, as well as applications in service learning, entrepreneurship education, and authentic assessment. The novelty of this study lies in its focused examination of the 2023–2025 publication period, capturing the latest global trends shaped by digital transformation and sustainability agendas. Practically, the results highlight the need for stronger institutional and policy support to systematically embed EL within higher education curricula. Overall, this study contributes to strengthening evidence-based, student-centered learning and informs future research opportunities in experiential education.

Abstract

This systematic literature review synthesizes empirical findings published between 2018 and 2025 on the influence of school principals’ managerial competencies planning, organizing, directing, and controlling on educational performance in Indonesia. Using qualitative content analysis, evidence was gathered from Scopus-indexed journals, Sinta-accredited national journals, and reputable conference proceedings. The review consistently indicates that managerial competence significantly enhances teacher performance, learning quality, and student achievement, with studies reporting improvements of 25–40% through effective academic supervision, strategic planning, and resource management. Key mechanisms identified in the literature include structured instructional supervision, collaborative human-resource development, and data-driven decision-making processes that strengthen school climate and organizational efficiency. Although the review does not draw on primary data from any specific region, the synthesized evidence offers conceptual insights for disadvantaged or remote areas such as Mamuju Regency, where infrastructural limitations, resource constraints, and post-disaster vulnerabilities have been widely documented in national reports. The literature suggests that adaptive managerial strategies emphasizing supervision, planning, and climate-building may help address such contextual challenges. The review concludes that strengthening principal preparation, certification, and ongoing managerial training is essential for improving educational outcomes and reducing regional disparities. Future empirical research is recommended to examine how these competencies operate within the unique contextual realities of regions like Mamuju, thereby validating and refining the implications derived from this synthesis.

Abstract

This qualitative study investigates the perceived effects of the phenomenon colloquially known as “brain rot” on students’ communication skills. The term refers to the decline in cognitive and expressive functions resulting from prolonged exposure to passive digital content, particularly on social media platforms. Using semi-structured interviews with purposively selected students, this study sought to understand how excessive screen time influences verbal expression, social interaction, vocabulary development, and overall communication behaviour. Findings revealed recurring themes including reduced attention span, increased reliance on meme-based or short-form expressions, diminished face-to-face interaction confidence, and a perceived deterioration in critical thinking and vocabulary richness. While students acknowledged the benefits of digital connectivity, many reported feelings mentally fatigued and less articulate during offline conversations. These insights suggest that the overconsumption of fast-paced, visually stimulating content may gradually undermine fundamental communication abilities. The study concludes that “brain rot” is not merely a humorous online term but a reflection of a growing concern over digital media’s influence on essential life skills. It recommends the implementation of media literacy education, balance in screen time, and the reinforcement of traditional communication practices in educational settings.
