Abstract

This study compares tourism development in Australia and Indonesia to examine how cultural context influences four key dimensions: cultural integration, community participation, sustainability practices, and governance effectiveness. Using a mixed-methods comparative design, the research draws on questionnaire data from tourism stakeholders in both countries, including policymakers, destination managers, community representatives, and practitioners, complemented by semi-structured interviews. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics, while qualitative data were examined thematically. The findings reveal clear cross-cultural differences in tourism development approaches. Indonesia places greater emphasis on cultural integration and community participation, reflecting the prominence of community-based and culturally grounded tourism models. Australia performs more strongly in sustainability practices and governance effectiveness, indicating a more institutionalized and policy-driven framework. The results also show significant positive relationships between cultural values and broader tourism development dimensions, highlighting culture as a key driver of tourism outcomes. Qualitative insights further stress the importance of balancing economic development with cultural preservation and environmental sustainability. This study contributes to cross-cultural tourism research by demonstrating that tourism development remains culturally differentiated despite globalization. It also offers practical implications for policymakers and practitioners by emphasizing the need for culturally responsive and governance-sensitive tourism strategies that support sustainable development.

Abstract

Low mathematical understanding among elementary school students in Indonesia is a pressing problem, as National Assessment data show that only 28.7% of elementary students achieve adequate numeracy competence. One primary cause is the scarcity of contextual, innovative learning media capable of connecting abstract mathematical concepts to students' lived experiences. This study develops an Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based cartoon medium set within the Cianjur tauco local wisdom context to improve the mathematical understanding of fourth-grade elementary students. The method employed was Research and Development (R&D) using the ADDIE model (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation). Sixty fourth-grade students of SDN Pasarsuuk, Cianjur Regency, participated—32 in the experimental group (class IVA) and 28 in the control group (class IVB)—selected through purposive sampling. Research instruments included expert validation sheets, practicality observation sheets, student response questionnaires, and mathematical understanding tests in pre-test and post-test form. Results showed a mean validity score of 3.78 (very valid), a mean practicality score of 3.75 (very practical), and positive student responses of 87.5%. The class average rose from 58.40 to 79.20, with an N-Gain of 0.49 (moderate) and a mastery rate of 81.3%. The novelty of this study lies in simultaneously integrating generative AI technology, visual-narrative cartoon format, and Cianjur tauco local wisdom into a single contextual, meaningful, and culturally grounded mathematics learning media product.

Abstract

The rapid development of digital technology has significantly influenced the educational environment, particularly in relation to students’ character formation. The widespread use of digital media exposes students to various challenges, including misinformation, cyberbullying, and the weakening of moral values. In response to these issues, contemporary education is expected to emphasize not only academic achievement but also the development of strong character. In Indonesia, the Merdeka Curriculum was introduced as an educational reform that provides greater flexibility in learning while integrating the Pancasila Student Profile to strengthen character education. This study aims to explore teachers’ perceptions regarding the role of the Merdeka Curriculum in shaping students’ character in the digital era at Madrasah Tsanawiyah Nururrodhiyah, Jambi City. The research employed a descriptive qualitative approach. Data were collected through observations, semi-structured interviews, and documentation involving teachers and school stakeholders. The data were analyzed using data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing, supported by triangulation to ensure credibility. The findings indicate that most teachers have a positive perception of the Merdeka Curriculum. They consider the curriculum to provide flexibility in teaching practices and encourage innovative learning that supports the development of independence, responsibility, critical thinking, and digital literacy. However, several challenges were identified, including limited facilities, differences in teachers’ technological readiness, and difficulties in understanding instructional modules. Overall, the Merdeka Curriculum has a strategic role in strengthening students’ character in the digital era, although continuous institutional support and teacher professional development remain necessary.

Abstract

This study aims to empirically investigate the influence of pedagogical, professional, personal, social, and religious competencies of Islamic Education teachers on students’ learning outcomes at SMA Negeri 4 Kota Bima. The study is based on the assumption that teachers play a central role in determining the effectiveness and success of the learning process, particularly in Islamic Education, which emphasizes not only students’ cognitive achievement but also the development of moral values, attitudes, and practical skills. This research employed a quantitative approach with a correlational research design to examine the relationship between teachers’ competencies and students’ academic performance. The population of the study consisted of all students at SMA Negeri 4 Kota Bima, while the sample was selected using purposive sampling techniques. Data were collected through questionnaires, observations, and documentation and were analyzed using multiple linear regression analysis. The findings revealed that pedagogical, professional, personal, social, and religious competencies simultaneously have a significant influence on students’ learning outcomes. Furthermore, each competency individually contributes positively to improving students’ academic achievement, with pedagogical and religious competencies showing the most dominant influence compared to the other variables. These findings indicate that teachers’ ability to effectively manage classroom learning and to demonstrate exemplary religious values in daily practice are essential factors in enhancing students’ learning success. Therefore, the comprehensive development of Islamic Education teachers’ competencies is highly necessary to improve the quality of students’ learning outcomes. This study is expected to provide valuable insights for schools and educational policymakers in designing strategic programs aimed at strengthening teacher professionalism and promoting effective, meaningful, and nationally oriented educational practices.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of Problem-Based Learning (PBL) integrated with environmental literacy and local wisdom in enhancing the learning outcomes of third-grade elementary school students. The research method employed is a quantitative approach with a comparative study design. The population of this study consists of all third-grade students at SDN Candi and SDN Batiombo 02, with a sample of 46 students. This sample includes 25 students in the experimental class implementing PBL integrated with environmental literacy and 21 students in the control class implementing PBL integrated with local wisdom. Data collection techniques included tests (pre-test and post-test), as well as teacher and student observation sheets. Data analysis was conducted using descriptive analysis, normality tests, homogeneity tests, hypothesis testing with paired sample t-tests, and N-Gain tests. The results of the study indicate a significant improvement in learning outcomes in both classes, with a significance value of 0.000 (< 0.05). The N-Gain test results show that the experimental class achieved an average score of 0.7129 (high category), while the control class achieved 0.6096 (moderate category). Furthermore, teacher and student activities in the experimental class were more optimal than those in the control class. The findings of this study demonstrate that the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) model integrated with environmental literacy is more effective than the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) model integrated with local wisdom in improving the learning outcomes of third-grade elementary school students.

Abstract

Abstract This study analyzes caregivers’ strategies in shaping students’ religious character through the boarding school program at MAN 2 Kota Bima. This research focuses on exemplary behavior, habituation, and supervision applied by caregivers in students’ daily activities, as well as the integration of Arabic and English language practices in supporting communication skills. A qualitative descriptive method was used. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, and analyzed through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing with triangulation for validity. The findings show that caregivers consistently shape students’ religious character through role modeling, routine religious activities, and continuous supervision in the boarding school environment. Students are trained in discipline, worship practices, and moral behavior through daily habituation. In addition, Arabic and English programs such as daily conversation and muhadharah help improve students’ confidence and communication abilities. The study also finds that religious character formation and language learning are integrated in daily boarding school activities. This study concludes that caregivers’ strategies effectively support the formation of religious character and communication skills among students in the boarding school program.

Abstract

Semantic misinterpretation often occurs when translating between English and Acehnese due to cultural and linguistic differences. Conventional dictionaries usually provide direct lexical equivalents without adequately clarifying core meanings. Natural Semantic Metalanguage (NSM) offers semantic primitives, universal concepts shared across languages, that can serve as a basis for developing more accurate and culturally sensitive resources. This study applies NSM theory in the development of an English–Acehnese E-Thesaurus of semantic primitives, aiming to minimize misinterpretation and strengthen cross-cultural understanding. Using a qualitative design, semantic primitives were identified in English and matched with Acehnese equivalents through linguistic elicitation, textual analysis, and expert consultation. The results were organized into an E-Thesaurus prototype with a user-friendly digital interface to facilitate bilingual access. Findings show that NSM-based explications provide clearer representations of universal meanings while accommodating cultural nuances in both languages. The prototype demonstrates its potential as a tool for reducing ambiguity, enhancing bilingual learning, and promoting cultural literacy. Preliminary user feedback indicates that it improves comprehension of abstract concepts and minimizes translation errors. In conclusion, integrating NSM theory in the English–Acehnese E-Thesaurus offers an effective model to address semantic misinterpretation. Beyond bilingual education, this innovation contributes to cultural preservation and the promotion of cross-cultural communication.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the concepts, implementation, challenges, and relevance of differentiated learning models in the context of Islamic Religious Education (PAI) through a critical literature review approach. This research is motivated by the demands for educational transformation in the era of the Merdeka Curriculum and 21st-century education, which emphasize student-centered learning. The research method employed is a critical literature review by examining various scholarly sources, including journals, books, and academic documents relevant to differentiated learning and Islamic education. The data were analyzed through processes of data reduction, categorization, interpretation, and critical synthesis to identify patterns, concepts, and research gaps. The findings reveal that differentiated learning has strong relevance to the development of PAI instruction, as it is capable of accommodating the diverse characteristics, needs, and potentials of students. The implementation of differentiated learning in PAI is carried out through the differentiation of content, processes, products, and learning environments, which positively impact students’ engagement, motivation, and learning experiences. Furthermore, differentiated learning is also aligned with the principles of Islamic education, which value human nature (fitrah) and human potential holistically. However, its implementation still faces various challenges, such as limited teacher competence, inadequate diagnostic assessment, conventional learning cultures, and insufficient learning facilities. This study contributes conceptually by positioning differentiated learning not merely as a pedagogical strategy, but also as a humanistic approach to transforming Islamic Religious Education learning in the modern era.

Abstract

The image of higher education institutions is greatly influenced by the power of symbolism and identity. This study aims to analyze the symbolic meaning and visual identity of Surabaya State University (Unesa) through a review of its logo and tagline, “Selangkah Lebih Maju” (One Step Ahead). The research method used is a qualitative approach with a literature study method, which involves collecting data from books, journals, institutional reports, and official Unesa documents. The results of the analysis show that the visual elements in the Unesa logo, such as the garuda wings, open book, hero monument, and lotus bud, have semiotic meanings that describe the values of nationality, science, and progress. Meanwhile, the tagline “One Step Ahead” serves as a verbal identity that affirms the institution's progressive and innovative orientation. In conclusion, the synergy between visual symbolism and verbal taglines strengthens Unesa's image as a dynamic, excellent, and highly competitive university.

Abstract

The educational system must adapt to the digital age by introducing new ideas to boost student achievement. The transformation of national values as a result of globalization and students' lack of interest, particularly in less engaging topics, pose the greatest problems. So, there has to be educational media that may pique people's attention and make them feel patriotic. Examining the impact of digital comic media on the learning interest and patriotism attitude of class X students at SMA Negeri 1 Kamal is the primary objective of this research. Digital comics are a new kind of educational medium that aims to present complex concepts in a fun and accessible manner. A total of 65 students from both the control and experimental classes made up the study sample. Students' academic interests and patriotic sentiments were assessed using a questionnaire sheet. The researcher arrived at these findings after analysing the data using basic linear regression and independent sample t-tests: 1) Digital comic media influences class X students' enthusiasm in studying at SMA Negeri 1 Kamal, and 2) digital comic media influences class X students' patriotism.
