Abstract

This study aims to analyze the role of local wisdom in early childhood education in Kendari City, focusing on its implementation at early childhood education Fajriatul Hikmah Kota Kendari and early childhood education Tasawuta Wawotobi Unaaha. A qualitative descriptive research method was employed, with data collected through interviews, observations, and documentation. The findings indicate that teachers have a good understanding of local wisdom and its relevance in early childhood education, particularly in instilling cultural values such as mutual cooperation, obedience, and respect for nature. The integration of local wisdom is carried out through various learning activities, including storytelling of folk tales, the use of local languages, and traditional games. Additionally, parental and community involvement plays a crucial role in strengthening character education in children. However, the study also identified several challenges in implementing local wisdom, such as the lack of specialized training for teachers and limited time for incorporating cultural values into the curriculum. Therefore, policy support from the government, teacher training programs, and increased community involvement are necessary to optimize the implementation of local wisdom-based education.

Abstract

This study is motivated by indications of low work discipline and work spirit among employees of the Tourism Office of North Kolaka Regency, as reflected in late attendance, absenteeism, and frequent leave submissions. Such conditions potentially affect employee performance and the overall achievement of organizational work programs. Leadership therefore plays a crucial role in shaping employee behavior, performance, and organizational work culture. This research aims to identify the leadership style applied by the Head of the Tourism Office in managing the tourism sector, to examine its influence on employee performance and work program achievement, and to analyze its impact on organizational work culture. The study employs a qualitative descriptive approach using an inductive method. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, and analyzed using data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing techniques. The findings reveal that the Head of the Tourism Office applies a character-based leadership style, characterized by exemplary behavior, discipline enforcement, continuous evaluation, and direct guidance to employees. This leadership style positively influences employee performance, supports the successful implementation of work programs, and fosters a more disciplined and responsible work culture within the organization. The study concludes that character leadership is an effective leadership approach in improving employee performance and organizational effectiveness in the public sector.

Abstract

Character education is a fundamental component of the educational system aimed at fostering individuals with integrity, ethical awareness, and a strong sense of responsibility. This study examines the synergy between teachers and parents in shaping students’ character at SMA Negeri 1 Porehu, while also identifying existing challenges and effective strategies for improvement. Employing a qualitative case study approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and document analysis involving nine key informants, including the school principal, teachers, and parents. The findings reveal that teacher–parent synergy remains limited due to ineffective communication and low parental participation in school activities. Nevertheless, initiatives such as the internalization of positive values through the “Morning Habituation” program and the establishment of regular communication forums between the school and parents have proven to enhance the effectiveness of character development. Supporting factors include well-structured school programs and active parental involvement, whereas major obstacles consist of value discrepancies between home and school environments and negative social influences. This study recommends strengthening collaborative-based character education programs by actively engaging parents in both instructional and character-building processes to ensure consistent and sustainable character formation among students.
