Abstract

Unggulan Aisyiyah Primary School, as a flagship Sekolah Penggerak in Bantul Regency, has consistently implemented differentiated instruction within the Merdeka Curriculum. However, while previous studies have widely examined differentiated instruction as a teaching strategy, limited research has focused on how it is managed systematically to foster student well-being in primary schools. This study addresses this gap by asking: How is differentiated instruction managed to enhance student well-being in a primary school context? The objective is to formulate a contextual management model that supports students’ cognitive, social, and emotional well-being. A descriptive qualitative approach was used, involving interviews with the principal, the vice principal for curriculum, two fourth-grade teachers, and two students, complemented by classroom observations and document analysis. Data were analyzed using thematic analysis procedures, including coding, theme development, and interpretation. The findings reveal that differentiated instruction management aligns with Tomlinson’s framework and encompasses four components: planning, organizing, implementation, and supervision. Planning involves identifying student needs and collaborative module preparation through team teaching. Organizing focuses on flexible grouping and creating a positive learning environment. Implementation uses multi-method and multi-source instructional strategies tailored to student profiles. Supervision is conducted through coaching, counseling, and mentoring to ensure continuous improvement. This model highlights that effective differentiated instruction management can enhance student engagement, social interaction, and emotional security, thus strengthening student well-being. Strengthening implementation requires practical guidelines, sustained mentoring, time management, and collaboration with psychological support professionals.

Abstract

Digital leadership has become a transformative paradigm for achieving quality education in the digital era. However, existing studies are mostly narrative and fragmented, offering limited understanding of how this concept evolves globally across educational contexts. This study provides a novel bibliometric and visual analysis of global research on digital leadership from 2000 to 2025. It differs from previous works by combining a PRISMA-guided approach with VOS viewer visualization to systematically map intellectual structures, thematic evolution, and collaboration networks in the field. A total of 647 journal articles indexed in Dimensions.ai were analyzed quantitatively to trace the development of digital leadership research related to quality education. The analysis examined publication trends, author networks, and dominant themes to identify conceptual and regional shifts. The results reveal a clear transition from technology-oriented and managerial perspectives to value-based and human-centered frameworks emphasizing ethics, inclusion, and sustainability. This study contributes to consolidating digital leadership as a multidimensional construct that bridges technology, pedagogy, and moral responsibility. The findings provide a conceptual foundation for policymakers and educational leaders to design strategies that promote adaptive, ethical, and future-ready leadership in alignment with Sustainable Development Goal 4 on quality education.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the role of elementary schools in providing and managing gender responsive facilities and infrastructure to support students’ learning motivation. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed to explore the experiences, perceptions, and practices of six elementary schools, varying in location, type, and completeness of facilities. Data were collected through interviews with principals, teachers, and students, observations of school facilities, and document analysis, and analyzed using a qualitative interactive process. The findings reveal that schools strive to provide various facilities, including comfortable classrooms, separate toilets, health rooms, libraries, sports fields, and both digital and printed learning media that portray balanced representations of male and female figures. School policies and teachers’ awareness of gender equality are reflected in the planning, utilization, and supervision of facilities, thereby fostering a learning environment that values all students regardless of gender. Students reported positive experiences, feeling comfortable and safe, as well as motivated to actively participate in classroom learning and extracurricular activities. These findings highlight the importance of integrating gender equality values into the management of school facilities and infrastructure to create an inclusive, participatory, and enjoyable learning experience. The study also emphasizes that attention to comfort, safety, and equal access contributes to shaping students’ perceptions of a fair learning environment and supports the development of their intrinsic motivation.

Abstract

This study aims to comprehensively review the literature on Teaching Factory (TeFa) within vocational education, focusing on its role in narrowing the gap between classroom learning and industry demands. Through a Systematic Literature Review (SLR), the research synthesizes theoretical perspectives and empirical findings from peer-reviewed journals, conference papers, and other indexed publications published between 2020 and 2025. A structured screening and thematic coding process guided the selection of relevant works, enabling the identification of core variables, implementation strategies, and contextual factors shaping TeFa across countries. The review highlights that infrastructure readiness, teacher expertise, industry partnerships, and financial support influence successful TeFa practices. TeFa offers students authentic, industry-oriented experiences that strengthen technical and soft skills, thereby enhancing overall work-readiness. However, several challenges remain, such as resource limitations, uneven teaching practices, and the integration of digital manufacturing technologies. Moreover, gaps are evident in research concerning long-term digital factory planning, effective knowledge management, and data-based decision-making in vocational contexts. By systematically mapping these findings, this study advances the discourse on vocational education, offering evidence-based insights into the strengths, limitations, and future directions of TeFa. The results provide valuable input for educators, policymakers, and researchers to improve vocational education models, reinforce collaboration between schools and industry, and design sustainable frameworks for Teaching Factory implementation.
