Abstract

This The increasing diversity within higher education institutions raises important questions about how students from traditional Islamic educational backgrounds negotiate their values in multicultural environments. However, limited studies have examined the transformation of pesantren values when individuals experience minority positions in pluralistic academic settings. This study aims to analyze the transformation of pesantren values within a multicultural higher education context. Using a qualitative case study approach, the research focuses on a student with a pesantren background studying at a multicultural university where he occupies a minority religious position. Data were collected through in-depth informal conversations to explore academic and social experiences. The findings indicate that core pesantren values discipline, responsibility, tolerance, social ethics, and religious commitment remain resilient while undergoing contextual adaptation. The subject maintains a strong religious identity while developing openness, empathy, and adaptive communication. Notably, the minority experience encourages reflective understanding and constructive reinterpretation of religious values. This study highlights the dynamic transformation of pesantren values from a minority perspective and demonstrates their role in fostering intercultural resilience and inclusive attitudes.

Abstract

The rapid expansion of social media has transformed the way students access religious information and engage in public discourse, creating both opportunities and challenges in addressing digital radicalism. In this context, promoting religious moderation has become an important strategy for fostering tolerance and balanced perspectives among young people. However, empirical studies examining how social media influences students’ attitudes toward religious moderation remain limited. This study aims to analyze the role of social media in shaping and strengthening religious moderation among university students. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, the research involved university students who actively use social media platforms such as WhatsApp, Instagram, and TikTok. Data were collected through semi-structured online interviews and analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings reveal that social media plays a dual role: it facilitates exposure to diverse viewpoints that encourage openness, tolerance, and critical reflection, while simultaneously presenting challenges through the rapid circulation of provocative or extreme narratives. Students responded to these dynamics by developing digital literacy and critical filtering strategies to maintain balanced perspectives. This study contributes to the discourse on digital religion and education by highlighting how social media can function as a strategic platform for promoting religious moderation among university students in the digital era.

Abstract

The growing religious diversity and potential polarization in higher education highlight the urgency of strengthening religious moderation through civic education. However, limited studies have examined how students perceive and internalize religious moderation within Pancasila Education. This study analyzes students’ perspectives on the implementation of religious moderation in Pancasila Education in higher education. Grounded in the conceptual framework of religious moderation as a balanced, anti-extremist, and tolerance-based approach, this research employs a descriptive qualitative design. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews with students who had completed the Pancasila course and analyzed using an interactive qualitative analysis model. The findings reveal that students conceptualize religious moderation as a middle-path attitude that promotes harmony, justice, and respect for diversity. Pancasila learning particularly through dialogical discussions, contextual case studies, and reflective assignments facilitates the internalization of moderation values. The historical formulation of the first principle of Pancasila serves as a key entry point for understanding compromise and consensus in a plural society. However, challenges remain in translating conceptual understanding into consistent social practice. This study contributes by highlighting students’ perspectives as a micro-level lens to understand the internalization of religious moderation, reinforcing the role of Pancasila Education in fostering inclusive and moderate student character.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the implementation of exemplary-based moral education in the development of students at Pondok Pesantren Al-Istiqomah Kapu. The study is motivated by the challenges faced by Islamic boarding schools in maintaining students’ moral development amid increasingly complex social and technological changes. The focus of the research is directed toward the forms of exemplary implementation, the supporting and inhibiting factors, and its influence on students’ behavior in their daily lives. This study employed a qualitative approach with a field research design. Data were collected through participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation involving the head of the boarding school, teachers, dormitory administrators, and students as research informants. The data were analyzed interactively through the stages of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that exemplary-based moral education is implemented through the habituation of daily behaviors directly demonstrated by teachers and dormitory administrators, such as discipline in congregational prayers, the use of polite language, responsibility, and concern for the cleanliness of the boarding school environment. The study also found that exemplary behavior has a positive influence on students’ character formation, particularly in the aspects of discipline, respectfulness, and social responsibility. However, the implementation of moral education still faces several obstacles, including the influence of social media, differences in students’ backgrounds, and limited supervision. This study concludes that exemplary conduct plays an important role in strengthening moral education in Islamic boarding schools because moral values are more easily internalized through real practices and daily interactions.

Abstract

Understanding the physical and motor development characteristics of children aged 7–12 years is essential for designing effective learning in primary schools. However, previous studies have generally examined these aspects separately, with limited discussion of their implications for classroom practice. This study aims to synthesize current evidence on children’s physical and motor development and its implications for primary education through a Systematic Literature Review (SLR). The review followed the PRISMA guidelines, analyzing peer-reviewed articles selected based on predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria from major academic databases. The findings indicate that physical growth and motor competence significantly influence students’ learning readiness, classroom participation, cognitive engagement, and social interaction. These developmental characteristics require teachers to implement age-appropriate, movement-based, and differentiated learning strategies. This review contributes by integrating current evidence into a comprehensive framework that supports curriculum development and instructional planning, while providing practical recommendations for creating developmentally responsive learning environments in primary schools.

Abstract

This study examines the impact of Career Development Learning (CDL) on students’ Self-Perceived Employability (SPE), with Self-Efficacy (SE) as a mediator and English Language Proficiency (ELP) as a moderator. Using a quantitative cross-sectional design, data were collected from 446 final-year undergraduate students at Malaysian private higher education institutions and analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM). The findings indicate that CDL significantly enhances both self-efficacy and employability perceptions. Self-efficacy partially mediates the relationship between CDL and SPE, suggesting that career development experiences improve employability primarily by strengthening students’ confidence in applying their competencies. Furthermore, ELP positively moderates the relationship between self-efficacy and SPE, indicating that stronger English proficiency enhances the translation of confidence into employability perceptions. These findings highlight the importance of integrating career development initiatives with interventions that strengthen students’ self-efficacy and English communication skills to improve graduate employability in multilingual higher education contexts.

Abstract

Ikhtilaf refers to differences of opinion among Islamic scholars in determining legal rulings on furu'iyyah (subsidiary) issues based on non-definitive evidence. As an integral part of Islamic intellectual tradition, ikhtilaf has shaped the development of Islamic jurisprudence since the era of the Prophet Muhammad’s Companions. Unlike previous studies that examine ikhtilaf from isolated perspectives, this study integrates its epistemological, ethical, and contemporary social dimensions while highlighting its relevance to Islamic education, character formation, and religious moderation. Using a library research method with a normative-historical approach, data were collected from the Qur’an, Hadith, classical Usul al-Fiqh, fiqh literature, and relevant scholarly works, then analyzed through content analysis. The findings reveal that ikhtilaf arises from differences in hadith transmission, socio-political contexts, legal reasoning, and legal sources. Understanding these causes promotes tolerance, discourages sectarian fanaticism, strengthens respect for scholarly ijtihad, and supports the integration of adab al-ikhtilaf into Islamic education to preserve Muslim unity.

Abstract

Families hold a strategic position in Islamic education because adolescents’ formation of religious and moral values is shaped not only by formal schooling but also by everyday family interactions and practices. This study examines family strategies for internalizing Islamic educational values among adolescents in Rama Puja Village, East Lampung, and identifies supporting and constraining factors. Employing a qualitative field research approach, the study involved parents and adolescents as key informants. Data were collected through interviews, observation, and documentation and analyzed using thematic analysis, with source triangulation to enhance data credibility. The findings show that the internalization of Islamic educational values is sustained through an integrated pattern of parental modeling, habituation of religious practices, open communication and religious advice, and continuous supervision and guidance. These practices collectively foster faith, religious practice, honesty, discipline, responsibility, politeness, respect for parents, and social concern among adolescents. The process is strengthened by emotional closeness and open family communication, while limited parental time and adolescents’ social environments present significant challenges. The study highlights that, in Rama Puja Village, family-based Islamic education is effective when values are consistently demonstrated, practiced, communicated, and reinforced in everyday life. This finding underscores the family’s role as a continuous and contextual space for Islamic education and adolescent character formation.
