Abstract

Islamic education policy plays a strategic role in shaping religious identity, governance, and social cohesion in Muslim-majority countries. Despite sharing Islam as a foundational reference, Indonesia and Saudi Arabia have developed distinct policy orientations shaped by divergent philosophical commitments, legal frameworks, and sociocultural contexts. Existing studies have primarily examined these systems in isolation or through a single analytical lens, leaving a limited comparative understanding of how multiple dimensions interact to shape Islamic education policy. This study addresses this gap by comparing Islamic education policies in Indonesia and Saudi Arabia through philosophical, juridical, and sociocultural perspectives. The study employed a qualitative-comparative approach based on library research. Data were collected from primary sources, including national education laws and official policy documents, as well as secondary sources such as peer-reviewed journal articles and academic books. Data were analyzed using qualitative content analysis to identify patterns of convergence and divergence across the three analytical dimensions. The findings reveal that Indonesia adopts an integrative and pluralistic model of Islamic education, combining Islamic values with a secular-constitutional framework that emphasizes religious moderation and social diversity. In contrast, Saudi Arabia implements a centralized and theologically uniform model grounded in Sharia-based governance and Salafi doctrinal orientation. Socioculturally, Indonesia’s multicultural context encourages adaptability, while Saudi Arabia’s relative homogeneity supports policy uniformity, albeit with gradual reforms under Vision 2030. This study contributes theoretically by proposing an integrative analytical framework that explains how philosophy, law, and sociocultural context jointly shape Islamic education policy. Practically, it offers insights for developing Islamic education systems that balance theological integrity with inclusivity and global educational demands.

Abstract

Values education has become a central concern in contemporary curriculum reforms as education systems seek to balance academic achievement with character and moral development. This study examines how values education is conceptualized and operationalized within the Türkiye Century Maarif Model (TYMM), a newly introduced national curriculum framework in Türkiye. Using a qualitative document analysis, this research examines official curriculum policy documents published by the Ministry of National Education, focusing on primary education. Data were examined through thematic analysis to identify the structure, scope, and pedagogical orientation of values education embedded in the curriculum. The findings reveal that TYMM positions values not merely as implicit moral principles but as structured learning outcomes integrated into competencies, learning processes, and assessment expectations. The model emphasizes a holistic framework linking virtues, values, and actions, thereby signaling a shift toward more systematic and measurable character education. This study contributes to the literature on curriculum reform and values education by providing an empirically grounded analysis of a national curriculum model. It offers implications for curriculum designers, policymakers, and educators seeking to strengthen values-based education in primary schooling.

Abstract

Understanding chemical bonding presents a persistent challenge for secondary school students due to the abstract and subatomic nature of the concepts involved. This study examined the effectiveness of an animation-based instructional package in improving students' understanding of chemical bonding. A quasi-experimental pretest–posttest design was employed involving 160 Senior Secondary School II students drawn from eight public secondary schools in Nigeria. Students were assigned to either an experimental group that received animation-supported instruction or a control group that received conventional instruction. Data were collected using a researcher-developed multiple-choice achievement test and analyzed using independent-samples t-tests and one-way analysis of variance. The results indicated that students exposed to animation-based instruction achieved significantly higher posttest scores than those taught using conventional methods across all schools. In addition, no significant differences were found among the experimental groups across schools, suggesting that the instructional effect of the animation package was consistent across different educational contexts. These findings provide empirical evidence that animation-based instruction can effectively support students' understanding of abstract chemistry concepts and highlight its potential as a pedagogical tool for improving secondary school chemistry education.
