Abstract

This paper explores the transformative role of character-based digital citizenship in redefining civic education in the digital era. Amid the rapid flow of information and the growing negative impact of technology on national values, civic education must be adaptive and relevant. The study highlights the strategic contribution of digital citizenship to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals, in particular Target 4.7, which emphasises education for sustainable development and global citizenship, and Target 16, which supports peaceful and inclusive societies and access to justice. This research applies a descriptive qualitative approach, using a systematic literature review strategy combined with thematic analysis, to critically and in-depth explore relevant scientific literature. These findings suggest that integrating character education into digital citizenship fosters ethical awareness, responsible digital behaviour, and democratic participation. This synergy strengthens civic competence and promotes inclusive, peaceful, and sustainable educational settings. The study provides strategic insights for educators, curriculum developers, and policymakers, proposing new conceptual models that align digital citizenship with global citizenship goals and advance 21st-century citizenship learning.

Abstract

Environmental issues are increasingly pressing globally, including in Indonesia, where pollution and environmental damage continue to rise. In this context, ecological citizenship awareness has emerged as one solution to address these challenges. This study aims to analyse the level of ecological citizenship awareness among the community in Indonesia and to assess the impact of this awareness on community participation in environmental cleanliness and preservation programs. The method used is a literature study, which involves collecting and analysing related literature, including journal articles, research reports, and policy documents. The literature criteria applied include relevance, source reliability, and year of publication to ensure that the information obtained is accurate and up to date. The results of the study indicate that ecological citizenship awareness in Indonesia varies, with much of the literature emphasising the importance of environmental education in improving community understanding. The discussion also indicates that although awareness is high, implementation in real action is often hampered by a lack of support from facilities and policies. This study recommends strengthening environmental education programs and collaboration between the government and the community to create a cleaner, more sustainable environment.

Abstract

Civic education plays a crucial role in fostering responsible citizenship and developing comprehensive civic competencies. In Indonesia, it holds a strategic position as a compulsory subject mandated by the government and implemented across all universities. This study aims to investigate the impact of Project Citizen Digital on students’ civic competency in higher education. Employing a quantitative approach, the research focuses on the implementation and evaluation stages of the ADDIE model following the development of the Project Citizen Digital application. A one-group pretest–posttest design was used to assess changes in students’ civic competency before and after the intervention. The study involved 480 undergraduate students from Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia, consisting of 400 students in the first cohort and 80 students in the second. Data were analyzed using paired-sample statistical tests through SPSS. The findings indicate a statistically significant improvement in students’ civic competency after engaging in Project Citizen Digital-based learning. This is evidenced by a Sig. (2-tailed) value of 0.000, which is lower than 0.025, leading to the rejection of the null hypothesis. The results confirm that the intervention produced a meaningful difference between pretest and posttest scores. Therefore, Project Citizen Digital demonstrates strong potential as an innovative and effective model for integrating digital technology with participatory civic learning in higher education.

Abstract

Although Indonesia is not formally an Islamic state, the idea of establishing one has remained a recurring theme in the country’s political discourse. From the pre-independence period to the reform era, discussions surrounding the Islamic state have persisted and never entirely disappeared. The notion continues to develop, reflecting the aspirations of certain segments of Indonesia's Muslim population. These groups, often referred to as conservative Islamic factions, are characterised by their adherence to textual interpretations of Islamic teachings and their desire to integrate religion and state within a legal and governmental framework. The emergence of conservative Islamic groups in Indonesia was not spontaneous. Rather, their development follows a long historical trajectory traceable to the pre-independence or nationalist movement period, when the country was still under colonial rule. During this era, the embryonic idea of an Islamic state began to form within Sarekat Islam (SI), then the largest Islamic organisation in the archipelago. SI would later serve as a precursor to the rise of other Islamic movements, such as Masyumi and DI/TII, which also pursued the formal integration of religion into state structures. However, the aspirations of these conservative Islamic groups for an independent Indonesia grounded in Islamic principles were ultimately thwarted during the BPUPKI session on June 1, 1945, when Pancasila was adopted as the philosophical foundation of the Indonesian state.

Abstract

The Lampung language is currently facing a decline in daily use among younger generations, raising concerns about its potential endangerment. This study investigates the role of illustrated conversation books as a pedagogical tool to support the revitalisation of the Lampung language, using a sociolinguistic approach that considers learners’ perceptions, motivation, and attitudes toward language preservation. Data were collected through a questionnaire distributed to 102 respondents, with items grouped into three aspects: perceptions of book design, motivation to learn Lampung, and attitudes toward language preservation. The findings indicate that 82.4%–84.3% of respondents agreed that illustrations and attractive visual design improved comprehension, engagement, and enjoyment in learning. Motivation-related responses were moderately positive (67.6%–70.6%), with students expressing pride in learning Lampung but showing a need for broader reinforcement from cultural and social contexts. Attitudes toward preservation were strongly positive, with 91.1% agreeing that illustrated books can be an effective strategy for safeguarding the language, although only 55.9% expressed willingness to teach it to others. These results align with multimedia learning theories and sociolinguistic perspectives on language revitalisation, highlighting the importance of visual pedagogical resources while underscoring the need for community and institutional support. The study concludes that illustrated conversation books can serve as effective entry points for revitalising the Lampung language. The illustrated conversation books serve as a new pedagogical tool for teaching and preserving the Lampung language. This book can also provide a fresh assessment of students’ perceptions, motivation, and attitudes toward learning in Lampung.

Abstract

This research explores the local wisdom of Tiaytiki of the Yepase community in Jayapura Regency, Papua, as a form of citizen virtue in caring for and maintaining the sustainability of marine ecology. The ancestors have passed Tiaytiki down to the current community, which serves to preserve marine resources through zoning mechanisms, prohibitions on overexploitation, and the application of customary sanctions. Rooted in local beliefs and cosmology, Tiaytiki is not only a technical customary rule but also a substantial moral expression that emphasises collective responsibility, social solidarity, and spiritual awareness to live in harmony with nature. The research has been conducted qualitatively using the case study method. Research data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation. The analysis shows that there are five dimensions of civic virtue in Tiaytiki: spiritual, social, educational, marine-ecological, and institutional, which can serve as a model for caring for nature. This model not only serves as a mechanism for marine conservation but also as an educational tool to instil ecological character in the younger generation. The findings confirm that Tiaytiki is the intersection of civic ecology and civic virtue, and that it contributes to the development of contextualised civic education oriented towards environmental sustainability.

Abstract

Civic education is not limited to contemporary learning through traditional methods. Students are encouraged to actively participate through dialogue, collaboration, contribution, and discussion. Thus, the resulting discussions can stimulate their critical thinking regarding social issues. This study aims to analyse the implementation of augmented reality-based digital citizenship learning to improve the civic communication competence of higher education students. This study uses a qualitative case study approach. The participants in this study were 15 students from communication studies who took civic education courses. In-depth interviews were conducted using semi-structured techniques to collect data. The results of this study indicate that the use of augmented reality in civic education courses can help students identify forms of digital citizenship. Students can practise their civic communication competence through the DC-AR application. In addition, students can use the DC-AR application independently through their smartphones. Thus, the DC-AR application can be an alternative digital citizenship learning technology that can minimise the spread of hoaxes. Students are also encouraged to practise their social and cultural literacy skills through civic communication practices. This study concludes that civic education is not limited to theoretical elements. In higher education, civic education can be integrated with technology and communication science. Students not only understand digital citizenship but are also able to implement it through the DC-AR application by practising communication. The DC-AR application can also instil citizenship communication competencies in students as a strategy to improve the quality of human resources through education.

Abstract

This article examines how social media is utilised to enhance broader political participation among young people. The study employed a descriptive survey design using a Google Form, complemented by in-depth interviews conducted between September and December 2024. The participants consisted of 356 Generation Z individuals in Pekanbaru City, including first-time student voters and pre-voters. Data were analysed using descriptive techniques based on survey responses, expressed as percentages. The findings reveal three main typologies. First, social media functions as the primary source of political information due to its accessibility, practicality, up-to-date content, comprehensive coverage, and visually engaging format. Second, social media serves as a medium for political communication, where individuals engage by following political accounts, commenting on posts, or passively consuming content that still influences their daily discussions. Third, social media serves as a platform for political expression, as evidenced by reactions such as likes, dislikes, content sharing, and reporting. The study suggests that voter education actors should optimise their social media presence by producing engaging, accessible content aligned with current trends, such as podcasts, short videos, reels, and interactive Q&A formats. Collaboration with educational institutions and youth communities is also essential. Ultimately, these strategies aim to foster meaningful political participation among Generation Z, extending beyond electoral involvement to more active non-electoral engagement.

Abstract

Women's political participation in post-conflict states presents a persistent paradox: numerical gains in representation rarely translate into substantive policy influence. Focusing on Timor-Leste, where quota legislation elevated women's parliamentary representation to 38% by 2023, this study examines the structural, institutional, and sociocultural conditions that mediate the conversion of descriptive into substantive representation. A systematic literature review (2015–2025), conducted following PRISMA 2020 guidelines and synthesising peer-reviewed studies, institutional reports, and policy documents, frames the analysis through critical actor theory, feminist institutionalism, and intersectionality. Findings reveal that patriarchal norms, elite gatekeeping, institutional fragility, and gender-based political violence collectively constrain women's policy agency despite formal numerical gains. Conversely, coalition-building, gender-responsive budgeting, leadership development, and anti-violence mechanisms emerge as critical enablers for translating presence into influence. Substantive women's participation is further shown to advance democratic consolidation by broadening accountability and enhancing institutional legitimacy in fragile state contexts. Comparative analysis of Rwanda and Nepal affirms that quota-driven reform must be accompanied by cultural transformation to yield durable outcomes. The study contributes theoretically by advancing integrated gender-governance frameworks, empirically by situating Timor-Leste within comparative post-conflict scholarship, and normatively by generating recommendations aligned with SDG 5, SDG 16, and ASEAN gender frameworks. Sustainable democratic governance ultimately requires moving beyond formal quotas towards structural and cultural change that secures women's substantive empowerment.

Abstract

Civic Education plays a strategic role in shaping students’ awareness of their rights and responsibilities as citizens. However, its effectiveness in Indonesia remains a challenge, particularly in improving students’ civic knowledge. Teachers’ competence, particularly professional and pedagogical competence, is a crucial factor in supporting the quality of teaching and learning. This study aims to examine the influence of teachers’ professional competence (X1) and pedagogical competence (X2) on students’ civic knowledge (Y), both partially and simultaneously. The research employed a quantitative, survey-based approach. The sample consisted of all Grade 11 students taking the Civic Education course at St. Fransiskus Xaverius Seminary Senior High School in Tomohon, selected using a total sampling technique because the entire population that met the study criteria was included (n = 41). The results of the analysis revealed that teachers’ professional competence has a significant effect on improving students’ civic knowledge (the calculated t-value (3.763) > the critical t-value (2.02); sig. 0.001 < 0.05). Teachers’ pedagogical competence also partially shows a significant influence on students’ civic knowledge (the calculated t-value (7.004) > the critical t-value (2.02); sig. 0.000 < 0.05). Simultaneously, both independent variables significantly affect students’ civic knowledge (the calculated F-value (47.273) > the critical F-value (3.24); sig. 0.000 < 0.05). The coefficient of determination (R2) indicates that teachers’ professional and pedagogical competence jointly account for 71.3% of the enhancement of students’ civic knowledge. In comparison, the remaining 28.7% is influenced by other factors not examined in this study.
