Abstract

This study investigates the impact of a Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) intervention on student motivation and academic self-efficacy in junior high schools in Indonesia. The research utilized a quasi-experimental design with pre-test and post-test assessments to measure changes in intrinsic motivation and academic self-efficacy among the participants. A total of 200 students were divided into an experimental group, which participated in the SEL program, and a control group, which did not receive the intervention. The SEL program, delivered over one semester, focused on improving students' emotional regulation, social skills, and self-awareness, with an emphasis on autonomy, competence, and relatedness. The results demonstrated significant improvements in both intrinsic motivation and academic self-efficacy for the experimental group, with average increases of +19.2 and +17.4 points, respectively. Statistical analysis showed that the SEL intervention had a significant positive effect, with t-values of 7.56 (motivation) and 6.32 (self-efficacy) and p-values less than 0.01. In contrast, the control group exhibited minimal changes in both variables. These findings suggest that SEL interventions can foster a more balanced approach to learning by enhancing both emotional and academic development. The study highlights the importance of incorporating SEL programs into the curriculum to support students' holistic growth and academic success.

Abstract

This study explores the role of educational policy implementation in reducing urban-rural learning disparities through scholarship programs. Educational disparities between urban and rural areas have persisted across many nations, affecting student outcomes due to differences in access to resources, infrastructure, and qualified teachers. Scholarship programs have emerged as an effective policy tool to address these gaps, providing financial support and enabling rural students to pursue higher education opportunities. This research examines the impact of scholarship policies on bridging the urban-rural education divide, focusing on the performance outcomes of scholarship recipients compared to non-recipients. The study also discusses the socio-economic barriers and challenges faced by rural students and evaluates how scholarships, along with additional support mechanisms such as mentorship and academic workshops, contribute to improving academic performance. The findings suggest that while scholarships have a significant positive effect on academic outcomes, a more comprehensive approach, including better infrastructure, teacher quality, and socio-emotional support, is necessary to fully address educational inequities. This research provides insights into how well-designed scholarship programs, embedded within broader educational reforms, can effectively reduce disparities in educational access and outcomes between urban and rural students.

Abstract

This study explores the impact of peer-mentoring programs on vocational high school (SMK) students, focusing on academic resilience, dropout rates, and overall academic performance. The research compares the outcomes of students in schools with and without peer-mentoring programs. The findings indicate that students participating in peer mentoring exhibited significantly lower dropout rates (12%) compared to those in the control group (22%). Additionally, the continuation rate for students in the experimental group was higher (88%) than in the control group (78%). Academic performance was also positively affected, with an average score of 75 for the experimental group, compared to 65 for the control group. Statistical analysis confirmed the significance of these differences, highlighting the positive effects of peer-mentoring programs. The study suggests that peer mentoring not only enhances academic performance but also contributes to improved student retention by providing emotional and social support. The results underscore the importance of well-structured mentoring programs, including effective mentor training and proper matching between mentors and mentees, to maximize the benefits for vocational students.

Abstract

This study investigates the impact of gamified learning platforms on the development of critical thinking and problem-solving skills among middle school students. With the increasing reliance on digital tools, fostering these essential skills has become a critical educational goal. Traditional teaching methods often fail to engage students effectively, which has led educators to explore innovative approaches such as gamified learning. The experimental design of this study involved two groups: an experimental group using gamified learning platforms and a control group following conventional teaching methods. Data were collected through pre-tests and post-tests measuring students' critical thinking and problem-solving abilities. Results indicated that the experimental group showed a significant improvement in both skills, with a 20-point increase in their scores, while the control group exhibited minimal progress. The findings highlight that gamified learning, which integrates game mechanics such as points, rewards, and leaderboards, enhances engagement and motivation, leading to improved cognitive skills. This study emphasizes the potential of gamification to revolutionize educational practices, suggesting that its integration can be a powerful tool to equip students with the necessary skills for the future.

Abstract

This study evaluates the impact of remote-mentoring programs on prospective teacher preparedness and self-efficacy during their initial teacher training. Teacher preparation is a critical element in developing effective educators, and mentoring plays a pivotal role in enhancing the professional development and confidence of novice teachers. With the growing trend of remote learning, particularly due to the COVID-19 pandemic, remote mentoring has emerged as an alternative to traditional face-to-face mentoring. The objective of this study was to assess how remote mentoring influences prospective teachers’ readiness to teach and their belief in their teaching abilities. Through a quasi-experimental design, the study compares two groups of prospective teachers: one group receiving remote mentoring and another group without it. The data were collected using self-efficacy questionnaires and in-depth interviews, focusing on participants' perceived teaching readiness, confidence, and experiences with remote mentoring. The findings suggest that remote mentoring significantly enhanced teaching self-efficacy and preparedness compared to the non-mentored group. While remote mentoring provided flexibility and accessibility, challenges such as technological barriers and the lack of personal interaction were identified. The study concludes that remote mentoring can be an effective tool for teacher preparation, particularly in areas where traditional mentoring is difficult to implement. Recommendations include the use of blended approaches, combining online mentoring with occasional face-to-face interactions, to overcome the limitations of remote learning. Further research is suggested to explore the long-term effects of remote mentoring on teacher performance and to compare mentoring practices across different disciplines and regions.

Abstract

This study explores the role of peer mentoring as a strategy to reduce student dropout rates and strengthen social support networks in universities. Using a mixed-methods approach that combined quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews, the research examined students’ sense of belonging, academic motivation, persistence intention, and access to emotional and academic support. The findings indicate that peer mentoring significantly enhances students’ sense of community, increases their academic motivation, and strengthens their commitment to continue their studies. Compared to other retention strategies such as academic counseling or financial support, peer mentoring provides unique advantages by fostering ongoing peer-to-peer relationships and expanding social networks. Moreover, the study found that mentor–mentee interactions create a safe space for students to share academic challenges, personal concerns, and coping strategies, which contributes to improved well-being and greater confidence in navigating university life. Peer mentoring also offers opportunities for skill development, including communication, collaboration, and self-regulation, making it beneficial not only for mentees but also for mentors. These results suggest that peer mentoring not only mitigates dropout risks but also contributes to building long-term resilience and a supportive learning environment for students. Therefore, universities are encouraged to integrate structured peer mentoring programs into their retention initiatives to promote student success and holistic development.
