Abstract

This study identifies the moral values embodied by the main character in the script of Wish (2023), a movie written by Jennifer Lee. The research applies the theoretical framework of Linda and Richard Eyre’s Teaching Your Children Values (1993), supported by Carol K. Sigelman and David R. Shaffer’s Life Span Human Development (1995). A qualitative descriptive method was employed, with the movie script serving as the primary data source. Data were collected through repeated readings and note-taking techniques to extract dialogues reflecting moral values. The analysis reveals that the main character exhibits 12 distinct moral values, categorized into two groups: values of being honesty, courage, peaceability, self-reliance and potential, self-discipline and moderation, fidelity and chastity and values of giving loyalty and dependability, respect, love, unselfishness and sensitivity, kindness and friendliness, and justice and mercy. These values collectively reflect the character’s inner integrity and outward compassion, demonstrating the importance of both personal growth and social harmony. The study’s novelty lies in its focused analysis of a contemporary animated film through the lens of established moral education theory. Practically, it emphasizes how animated narratives can serve as effective tools for moral development, especially in younger audiences. The study contributes to the field of literary and film analysis by highlighting the social impact of cinematic storytelling in promoting ethical behavior and community-mindedness.

Abstract

This study determines the effect of organizational climate and professional competence on teacher’s performance partially and simultaneously at SMA Negeri 9 Palembang. Data collection techniques were carried out through questionnaires, observations, and documentation studies. The validity test used construction validity, while the reliability test used Cronbach’s alpha, linearity test, and normality test. The results state there is significant partial and simultaneous effect of organizational climate and professional competence on teacher’s performance at SMA Negeri 9 Palembang. The findings can help school administrators at SMA Negeri 9 Palembang design better policies to enhance organizational climate and teacher competence. Despite extensive research on teacher performance, few studies have examined the combined effect of organizational climate and professional competence in Indonesian high schools. Since both factors significantly influence performance, school leaders and policymakers can prioritize interventions such as workshops, mentorship, and a supportive work environment to boost teacher effectiveness. This study adds new insights by examining the dual influence of organizational climate and professional competence on teacher performance in a specific Indonesian school. Its practical value lies in guiding school leaders to enhance both workplace culture and teacher skills, while its academic contribution strengthens the literature with robust, context-specific evidence.

Abstract

This study examines the impact of hybrid work system implementation on employee performance within the framework of the digital era. The acceleration of technological advancements and digital transformation has fundamentally altered the landscape of the workplace, including the domain of human resource management. The hybrid work model, which integrates remote working and on-site office attendance, is widely regarded as a strategic response to the growing demand for flexibility and efficiency in modern organizational settings. A review of numerous empirical studies indicates that the implementation of such a system yields positive outcomes for employee performance, notably through increased temporal and spatial flexibility, enhanced operational efficiency, improved work-life balance, and greater work engagement. Furthermore, hybrid arrangements contribute to higher levels of employee productivity and organizational loyalty by enabling more autonomous work structuring. The successful application of hybrid work systems, however, is highly dependent on the organization’s level of readiness, which includes the availability of robust digital infrastructure, the presence of clear and consistent internal policies, and the practice of communicative and collaborative leadership. However, gaps still remain, particularly in ensuring equal access to digital resources and maintaining consistent employee engagement across remote and on-site teams. Despite its advantages, several implementation challenges persist, such as limited access to adequate support facilities, barriers in team communication, and difficulties in self-managed time allocation. Consequently, the effective deployment of hybrid work systems necessitates a comprehensive and strategic approach, accompanied by strong institutional support across all levels, in order to achieve optimal organizational outcomes.

Abstract

This study examines the relevance of H. Rasyid Bansin’s contributions to Islamic education and their significance for contemporary educational practices. Employing a qualitative approach with a character-study-oriented design, this research collected data through face-to-face interactions and field engagements at the research site. The methodology followed established steps in figure study research to ensure systematic analysis. The findings highlight the enduring relevance of H. Rasyid Bansin’s contributions, particularly through his establishment of modern Islamic boarding schools, integration of foreign language instruction (Arabic and English), promotion of science and technology, founding of formal schools (MTs and MA levels), and cultivation of resilient, socially conscious students. Unlike prior studies that focus solely on the role of historical figures in Islamic education, this research specifically analyzes the relevance of contributions, offering a fresh perspective on how past innovations can inform modern pedagogical practices. The study provides actionable insights for contemporary Islamic educational institutions, suggesting ways to adapt H. Rasyid Bansin’s strategies such as multilingual curricula and holistic student development to current needs. This research enriches the theoretical discourse on Islamic education by bridging historical and modern perspectives. It also serves as a foundation for future studies on the intersection of tradition and innovation in religious education.

Abstract

This research aims to determine the role of housewives in managing finances by living frugally and the implications for family welfare. The method used in this research is a qualitative method that explores the role of housewives in implementing frugal living to manage family finances, using interviews and observations with employees at Puri Raharja Hospital, Denpasar. Based on the research results, the findings revealed three motivations for living frugally: economic stability, psychological well-being, and saving for children’s education. Housewives serve as financial managers, decision makers, and educators, encouraging spending discipline and long-term savings. This study highlights the positive implications of frugal living on family well-being and gender equality, and emphasizes its potential as a sustainable financial strategy. The limitation of this research is the research design which was only carried out in one place, thus suggesting that there should be more extensive research in the future.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the principal’s strategies in planning, implementing, and evaluating Merdeka Curriculum and its contribution to improving the quality of education at SD Negeri 3 Margo Bhakti, Mesuji District, Ogan Komering Ilir Regency. As the first School leader (Sekolah Penggerak) in the area, SDN 3 Margo Bhakti has emerged as a pioneer and reference point in educational transformation, with the highest number of students among nearby elementary schools. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed to explore the leadership strategies adopted by the school principal in navigating the challenges and opportunities of Merdeka Curriculum implementation. The findings show that the principal’s strategy is organized into three main steps: planning, which uses SWOT analysis and matches the school’s goals; implementation, which focuses on teamwork among teachers, technology use, community participation, and clear budget management; and evaluation, which happens regularly through supervision and analysis of academic data. Merdeka Curriculum has greatly improved the quality of education at the school, making learning more flexible, enjoyable, and meaningful, while also promoting character development through the Pancasila Student Profile. Additionally, teachers receive ongoing training, mentoring, support from Merdeka Mengajar platform, and varied teaching methods. With strong leadership and steady execution, SDN 3 Margo Bhakti has successfully built an innovative, inclusive, and forward-looking learning environment.

Abstract

This study examines the individual and combined effects of academic supervision and school environment on education quality in public elementary schools across Mesuji District, addressing three key objectives: (1) assessing academic supervision's impact, (2) evaluating school environment's influence, and (3) measuring their synergistic contribution. Employing a quantitative causal design, we surveyed 122 teachers from 10 systematically sampled public elementary schools (representing 44% of the district's 277 teachers across 25 schools). Data collection combined validated questionnaires (α=0.87) with institutional documentation, analyzed through Pearson correlation and hierarchical multiple regression (p<0.05). Findings reveal significant positive influences: academic supervision independently accounted for 32% variance in education quality (β=0.47, p<0.01), while school environment explained 28% (β=0.42, p<0.01). Their combined effect explained 67% of quality variance (R²=0.67, F=58.34, p<0.001), demonstrating synergistic enhancement beyond individual factors. This study introduces an integrated quality predictor model that: (1) quantifies the multiplier effect of combining supervision and environmental factors, and (2) establishes threshold values for effective supervision in resource-constrained settings - a previously unmeasured dimension in developing educational contexts. Three actionable strategies emerge: Implementing fortnightly supervision cycles with classroom observation protocols Optimizing physical environments through noise-reduction and learning space redesign Developing school climate improvement teams to monitor psychosocial factors. The research makes dual contributions by: (1) advancing theoretical understanding of environmental-supervisory interactions in educational ecosystems, and (2) providing an evidence-based framework for simultaneous quality improvement interventions in comparable rural school systems.

Abstract

This study aims to examine teachers’ strategies, challenges, and solutions in managing inclusive classrooms at SD Negeri 244 Palembang, providing insights into effective practices for diverse learners. A qualitative approach was employed, utilizing classroom observations and in-depth interviews with teachers, staff, and parents. Data were analyzed through SWOT analysis and thematic coding to identify patterns and critical factors in inclusive education. Three primary strategies emerged: (1) use of visual media, (2) differentiated instruction, and (3) collaborative teaching. Key challenges included resource limitations and difficulties in student assessment, which teachers addressed through professional development and positive behavior reinforcement systems. This study offers a nuanced perspective by integrating SWOT analysis with qualitative data, revealing how grassroots-level strategies can overcome systemic barriers in Indonesian inclusive education. The findings underscore the need for targeted teacher training, resource allocation, and policy support to sustain inclusive practices. Schools can adopt the identified strategies to enhance classroom management and student engagement. The research enriches the discourse on inclusive education by documenting context-specific solutions from a underrepresented setting, serving as a reference for educators and policymakers in similar environments.
