Abstract

This study investigates university students’ vulnerability to cybercrimes at a public university in West Africa. The study specifically examines how students’ online behaviours, including password management, data access habits, internet usage, social media practices, and smartphone security, contribute to their susceptibility to cyber threats. The research adopts a survey research design, allowing for the collection of data on students’ cybersecurity behaviours and risk exposure through structured survey questions. A structured online questionnaire was administered to 580 students, and data were analysed using descriptive statistics, including mean, mode and standard deviation. The findings reveal that university students are highly vulnerable to cyberattacks due to low adoption of two-step verification and frequent password reuse, which increase the risk of unauthorized access and credential theft. However, their tendency to avoid sharing passwords, using simple passwords and saving passwords in browsers are positive security habits that reduce some cybersecurity risks. While many students demonstrate responsible cybersecurity habits, significant vulnerabilities remain in data storage and file transfer practices, which could lead to unauthorized access, data breaches, or malware infections. The outcomes indicate that although students show caution in avoiding risky downloads and pirated software, they still engage in high-risk behaviours related to internet and network access in the frequent use of public Wi-Fi, unverified file sharing, pop-up ad interactions, and improper VPN usage, increasing their exposure to cyber threats such as unauthorized access, malware infections, and phishing attacks. Although students demonstrate caution in some aspects of social media use, they remain vulnerable to cybersecurity risks due to excessive personal information sharing, frequent posting, and engagement across multiple platforms, with these behaviours increasing their exposure to privacy breaches, targeted cyber-attacks, and social engineering threats. While students generally avoid high-risk behaviours such as rooting their devices, they remain vulnerable due to inconsistent security practices on their smartphones. University students’ excessive reliance on GPS tracking, automatic synchronization, and lending devices to others increases exposure to privacy breaches, data leaks, and unauthorized access. This study is original in its consideration of the unique demographic characteristics of university students in North Central Nigeria along with their cybercrime vulnerability. The empirical results have established that while some students demonstrate responsible cybersecurity habits, social media usage significantly heightens vulnerabilities to cybercrime. The study underscores the need for targeted cybersecurity awareness programmes and institutional policies to enhance students’ online safety.

Abstract

Educational reforms emphasise leadership as a key driver of school effectiveness and improved learning outcomes among pupils. However, the implications of school leadership, particularly transformational leadership, for instructional improvement and pupil academic achievement in Tanzania remain unclear, despite ongoing policy interventions aimed at strengthening school leadership. This study is guided by the Path-Goal Theory, complemented by transformational leadership theory, to examine teachers’ experiences of transformational leadership and its implications for instructional improvement and pupil academic achievement. A convergent parallel mixed-methods design was employed, involving 382 participants. Of these, 356 primary school teachers were selected through simple random sampling, while 26 head teachers and Ward Education Officers were selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected through questionnaires and semi-structured interviews and analysed using inferential statistics and thematic analysis. The findings reveal that transformational leadership is widely practised and has a significant influence on teacher motivation, collaboration, and instructional practices, thereby indirectly enhancing pupil academic performance. However, inconsistencies in implementation were observed due to contextual constraints, such as limited leadership training and inadequate resources. The study recommends strengthening leadership capacity, enhancing institutional support, and promoting the consistent application of transformational leadership to improve teaching quality and learner outcomes.

Abstract

The primary objective of this study was to determine whether Local Wisdom-Based Problem-Based Learning (PBL) significantly affects students' entrepreneurial spirit within entrepreneurship instruction at SMA Negeri 1 Karangkobar. It was hypothesized that embedding local wisdom into the PBL approach would generate meaningful learning experiences capable of enhancing students' critical thinking, creativity, problem-solving competence, and entrepreneurial spirit through contextually grounded instruction. To this end, a quantitative, associative research design was employed, drawing on a total sample of 45 eleventh-grade students from classes XI E and The analysis confirmed a positive and significant effect of Local Wisdom-Based Problem-Based Learning on entrepreneurial spirit (significance value = 0.023, p < 0.05), represented by the regression equation Y = 19.870 + 0.406X. The determination coefficient (R² = 0.115) further indicated that the model explained 11.5% of the variance in entrepreneurial spirit, with the remaining 88.5% attributable to unexamined external factors. Collectively, these findings point to the potential of integrating local wisdom into Problem-Based Learning as an effective instructional strategy for nurturing entrepreneurial spirit among senior high school students.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the influence of Wordwall Maze Chase gamification as a STEM-based digital learning medium on improving students' creative thinking skills. This research uses a quantitative type of research. The study subjects were grade 5 elementary school students; as many as 31 respondents were selected with purposive sampling techniques. The data collection instrument uses an online questionnaire via a google forms link. The Pearson's correlation test showed that STEM-based Wordwall Maze Chase gamification learning media affected students' creative thinking skills by 0.926, which means it has a perfect correlation. Based on research in the field, using Wordwall Maze Chase gamification media has problems with cellphone performance and student screen resolution; the smaller the screen, the smaller the display of images and writing is also tiny. Learning using STEM-based Wordwall Maze Chase gamification media can be implemented in science, language, social science, and mathematics learning materials.

Abstract

Student delinquency has become a worrying phenomenon. Till now, there has been no study that has looked at students' delinquency from the Psycho-Spiritual Healing approach using the Koran perspective with the tahsin and tahfidz models. This paper aimed to complement the shortcomings of previous studies that ignore the contribution of the Koran in solving students' delinquency problems. The application of the tahsin and tahfidz models was carried out in three stages. The first was to get students accustomed to reading and memorizing Koran. The second was disciplining students, and the third was evaluating student achievement.
