Global challenges require the government to organize learning in schools that are more up-to-date following episodes in the times. The independent curriculum learning promises flexibility for teachers and students and replaces the relatively new curriculum-13. In implementing the independent curriculum, differentiated learning is a concept that focuses on the diversity of students’ learning styles. This research was conducted to obtain an overview of the implementation and reflection of differentiated learning in senior high schools in Central Java. Teachers, especially those teaching sociology subjects, the assistant principal of academic affairs and curriculum, and students are the research subjects. It is qualitative research with a phenomenological research type and purposive sampling technique. The results of this study show: i) the practice of differentiated learning in sociology subjects in high schools has been well implemented with the independent curriculum approach; ii) the challenges and obstacles faced by sociology teachers when implementing differentiated learning are the teacher’s skills in preparing learning; and iii) sociology teachers who face challenges and obstacles when implementing differentiated learning must pay more attention to the readiness of differentiated skills.

In higher education, fostering scientific literacy stands essential, especially in understanding and responding to natural disasters. This research investigates the scientific literacy levels among Physics Education students at State University in Surabaya, Indonesia, focusing on earthquake disaster mitigation. This study uses a qualitative descriptive approach that engaged 102 first-year pre-service teachers through a meticulously designed literacy test based on a new programme for international student assessment (PISA) framework 2025. The findings reveal a commendable proficiency in explaining scientific phenomena utilizing scientific knowledge. However, it uncovers a gap in students' abilities to make informed decisions in the context of earthquake disaster mitigation. This drawback is attributed to a lack of comprehensive literacy concerning disaster news, impacts, and mitigative strategies. Despite this, students demonstrated a capacity to argue and articulate their understanding logically based on existing knowledge. The study accentuates the need to enhance students' literacy and decision-making skills regarding natural disasters, advocating for heightened self-awareness and educational interventions to empower students to make informed decisions in disaster-prone scenarios.

This study aimed to investigate the impact of digital storytelling on the teaching practicum experiences of pre-service English teachers (PSET) and to delve into the challenges they encountered in creating digital storytelling, along with the strategies used to overcome these challenges. This study provided deeper understanding of the impact of digital storytelling on the learning and teaching experiences of PSET. Moreover, it provided information to face obstacles in the digital storytelling creation process. A total of 30 PSET, comprising 13 males and 17 females, engaged in their sixth-semester teaching practicum, participated in this study. Self-reflection and semi-structured interviews were conducted to collect the data. The researcher applied thematic analysis to analyze the data obtained. The findings of this study revealed that the implementation of digital storytelling yielded positive experiences for PSET, encompassing enhancements in pedagogical approaches, self-development, and technology integration into the teaching-learning process. PSET encountered various difficulties in creating digital storytelling, including seamless integration of movement, audio, images, and animations within the narrative, crafting engaging animations and narratives, and proficiency in using diverse editing applications. Moreover, the challenges encompassed collecting and curating appropriate materials and organizing a coherent storyline aligning with the lesson plans and real-world contexts. Nevertheless, PSET proposed solutions to overcome those difficulties.

Grit, the personal characteristic of perseverance and passion for long-term goals, plays a vital role in college students' success and well-being. This study aimed to investigate the contribution of optimism (a personal factor) and college mattering (a social factor), as well as their underlying mechanism on grit among college students. Data was collected from 186 participants from Selangor, Malaysia, who voluntarily responded to the college mattering scale (CMS), life orientation test-revised (LOT-R), and grit scale (Grit-S) Scale. The Bootstrap method with 5,000 resamples at a 95% confidence interval was employed for analysis. Our findings suggested that while college mattering and optimism did not significantly predict grit when controlling for each other, both social and personal factors are similarly important in predicting the development of grit, and that any intervention program or module to improve the students’ grit must encompass both social development and the improvement of social dynamics in the academic institutions.

Volunteering requires a high level of commitment to community development, especially from young people. The first study aimed to assess the knowledge, attitude and practices of university students of education regarding volunteering and the second study, analysing the differences in students’ knowledge regarding interest in volunteering. The survey method using Google form was distributed among the students of volunteer course semester 2 2022/2023 at Sultan Idris Education University. A total of 459 respondents provided the feedback. Overall, students’ knowledge about the volunteer course was excellent. Their attitudes towards volunteering activities tend to undertake activities related to their interests in terms of the types of volunteers available. Encouraging things in volunteering practice shows that students keep learning things related to volunteering, keep looking for opportunities to help others, and influence others to do it together. The analysis of students’ knowledge related to volunteering among students by interest showed that there was a significant difference in the mean of students’ knowledge by interest, where respondents’ interest in volunteering for the community was much higher than in other volunteering activities. Further studies should be conducted to better understand volunteerism among high school students who are now immersed in technology.

Gamification is the process of adding game-like features and mechanics in non-game contexts, such as learning, training, or marketing, to make them more engaging, enjoyable, and effective. This scoping review aims to investigate the impact of gamification on student motivation and identify the most frequently used and effective elements of gamification in educational contexts. A systematic search was conducted using five databases: Emerald, Scopus, Sage, Garuda, and Google Scholar. The preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses extension for scoping reviews (PRISMA-ScR) guidelines were followed. The review included 25 articles that met the inclusion criteria. The findings suggest that gamification can positively influence student motivation and engagement. However, the effectiveness of gamification elements varies across different contexts and learners. Points, levels, and leaderboards are among the most commonly used elements, but their impact on intrinsic motivation remains debatable. The review highlights the need for further research to understand the specific factors that contribute to the success or failure of gamification in education. The insights gained from this review can serve as a foundation for developing effective gamification-based educational materials that cater to the diverse needs of learners and foster their motivation to learn.

The students are urged to do something without expecting anything in return and only in the name of God. Every islamic student becomes something ideal if they can internalize and implement sincerity. Many people are willing to do something because of an ulterior motive. The importance of sincerity in humans is the background for developing a sincerity scale that measures personal sincerity. One of the figures who gave an example of sincere behavior was Kyai Haji (KH) Ahmad Dahlan, so the sincerity scale was adjusted to the character's sincere behavior. This scale consists of four indicators: having transcendental motives, the ability to control emotions, the absence of a sense of superiority, and being a servant of God. Two experts in Islamic psychometry tested KH Ahmad Dahlan's version of the sincerity scale. Besides that, construct validity involved 252 students. We employed Cohen's Kappa inter-rater reliability (IRR) coefficient and Rasch analysis as data analysis methods. The findings from Cohen's Kappa indicate that both experts concurred on the accuracy of the instrument's statement items. Additionally, the Rasch analysis reveals that the sincerity scale, based on KH Ahmad Dahlan’s version, is reliable, accurate, and fits well with the model.

Enhancing teacher performance (TP) in secondary education hinges on robust support in leadership, self-efficacy (SE), environment, and job satisfaction (JS). This article investigates how leadership influences TP, examining its intricate connection with JS, work environment, and SE. The study, encompassing 400 teachers, utilizes quantitative survey data subjected to exploratory factor analysis (EFA) for instruments. The data underwent path analysis employing Smart Partial Least Squares software, meeting the criterion of p0.70 for validation. Key findings demonstrate that transformational leadership, SE, and the work environment significantly influence JS. Moreover, in conjunction with JS, these factors positively impact TP. Notably, SE and an inspiring work environment indirectly enhance performance through their influence on JS. In summary, this research underscores the pivotal role of transformational leadership in TP enhancement. Transformational leaders can establish an empowering context for teachers to deliver high-quality education by prioritizing JS, the work environment, and SE. This underscores the necessity for educational institutions to emphasize administrator training in transformational leadership, thereby fostering a culture that values and supports effective leadership practices. Implications for further research suggest that transformational leadership improves TP and highlights avenues for additional exploration and application within educational contexts.
