Developing Student Independence in the Society 5.0 Era: A Review of the Entrepreneurship-Based Hidden Curriculum
type: item
description: This study aims to analyze the implementation of an entrepreneurship-based hidden curriculum in developing students' independence in the Society 5.0 era. This field research employs a qualitative approach, utilizing a case study method, in two Islamic boarding schools: the Sunan Gunungjati Ba'alawy Islamic Boarding School in Semarang and the Darussalam Islamic Boarding School in Purwokerto. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, and then analyzed descriptively and qualitatively. The results of the study indicate that the entrepreneurship-based hidden curriculum in both Islamic boarding schools is an effective instrument in instilling the values ​​of student independence. At the Sunan Gunungjati Ba'alawy Islamic Boarding School, the entrepreneurship program encompasses seed sales, cooperatives, fertilizer production, agriculture, agro-farms, and the Micro Waqf Agency, as well as the provision of necessities. Meanwhile, at the Darussalam Islamic Boarding School, it takes the form of a drinking water depot, a convenience store, a mini market, and a laundry. The implementation of the hidden curriculum shapes students' independence in economic, social, emotional, intellectual, and temporal aspects, while fostering a productive, adaptive, and entrepreneurial mindset in accordance with the demands of Society 5.0. This study confirms that Islamic boarding schools play a strategic role in developing a generation of independent, creative, and globally competitive students through entrepreneurship education based on Islamic values.

Madrasah Development and Governance in Ma’had Tawi-Tawi: Institutional Policies and Governmental Transitions Over Time
type: item
description: Research on Islamic education in the Philippines has primarily focused on conflict resolution and curriculum integration. At the same time, limited attention has been given to the evolution of institutional governance amid political transitions, particularly in peripheral Muslim-majority regions such as Tawi-Tawi. This study addresses this gap by examining the historical development and governance of Ma’had Tawi-Tawi, the first Islamic educational institution in the province, within the broader framework of national education policy and political transformation. Employing a Systematic Review and Bibliometric Analysis, this research maps global scholarly discourse on madrasa development, governance, and policy alignment. From 600 Scopus-indexed articles published between 2015 and 2025, 90 relevant studies were selected based on peer-review status, English language, and thematic relevance, and analyzed using VOSviewer. The analysis identified four dominant thematic clusters: policy impact, historical development, governance transitions, and leadership dynamics. The findings indicate that Ma’had Tawi-Tawi’s sustainability is closely linked to adaptive leadership and its ability to integrate Islamic educational traditions with national curriculum standards. Nevertheless, constitutional constraints related to the separation of church and state continue to limit direct government funding for religious schools. The Bangsamoro Organic Law, however, provides greater institutional resilience through regional autonomy and legal recognition. Policy recommendations include strengthening intergovernmental coordination, enhancing teacher capacity, and formalizing the integration of curriculum. Future studies should explore comparative governance models across the Bangsamoro region to inform sustainable Islamic education policies.

Optimizing 21st-Century Skills through Marketplace Activity and Grouping Variations in Islamic Religious Education
type: item
description: slamic Religious Education learning is still often teacher-centered, limiting students’ active participation and the development of 21st-century skills. This study aims to analyze how the Marketplace Activity (MPA) model and variations in grouping strategies foster the four Cs (communication, collaboration, critical thinking, and creativity) in Islamic Religious Education classrooms. Using a qualitative case study design at a public senior high school in Sidoarjo, data were collected through observations, interviews, and documentation, and analyzed using Miles and Huberman’s interactive model. The findings show that MPA promotes dynamic and meaningful learning interactions. Heterogeneous groups encourage diverse ideas, dialogic exchange, and critical reflection, while homogeneous groups support task efficiency and clarity of roles. The four Cs emerged as Islamic value-based learning outcomes: value-driven collaborative communication, spiritual-intellectual collaboration, reflective faith-based reasoning, and integrative Islamic creativity. This study concludes that MPA has strong potential as an integrative learning model that connects cognitive skill development with spiritual character formation, making Islamic Religious Education more relevant to the competence and morality demands of the 21st century. Practically, teachers are encouraged to design student-centered activities, apply flexible grouping structures aligned with learning objectives, and integrate faith-based values with higher-order thinking to strengthen both academic and spiritual outcomes.

The Influence of Environment and Motivation on Work Discipline of Elementary School Teachers
type: item
description: Work discipline is an essential element of human resource management and a prerequisite for achieving optimal teacher performance. However, preliminary findings in several public elementary schools in the Singorojo District indicate that some teachers still exhibit low levels of discipline in terms of attendance and completion of administrative tasks. This condition suggests the presence of underlying factors affecting teacher discipline, particularly the work environment and work motivation. This study aims to analyze the influence of the work environment and work motivation, both partially and simultaneously, on the work discipline of elementary school teachers. The research employed a quantitative approach with a survey design. The population consisted of 266 elementary school teachers in Singorojo District, and a sample of 160 teachers was selected using proportional sampling. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using descriptive statistics, as well as prerequisite tests (normality, linearity, multicollinearity, and heteroscedasticity), and simple and multiple linear regression analyses. The findings indicate that the work environment has a significant influence on teacher work discipline (R² = 0.336). Work motivation also significantly affects work discipline (R² = 0.246). Simultaneously, the work environment and work motivation contribute 40.1% to teacher work discipline (Sig. 0.000). A supportive work environment and high work motivation are proven to enhance the work discipline of elementary school teachers. These findings underscore the importance of enhancing the work environment and bolstering teacher motivation as key strategic efforts for schools. Future research is recommended to explore other potential predictors such as leadership, organizational culture, or workload.

Development of 3D Animated Story Media Through DRTA Strategy to Improve Reading Comprehension Skills of Elementary School Students
type: item
description: Reading comprehension is a fundamental literacy skill that supports students’ learning across various subjects. However, observations in elementary schools show that many students still struggle to understand narrative texts due to limited comprehension skills and the lack of engaging and innovative learning materials. At the same time, technological advancements provide opportunities to develop digital learning media that can enhance motivation and comprehension. One promising innovation is the use of 3D animated stories, which can present narrative content in a more vivid, interactive, and meaningful way. This study aims to develop 3D animated story learning media integrated with the Directed Reading Thinking Activity (DRTA) strategy to improve the reading comprehension skills of fourth-grade elementary school students. The research employed the ADDIE development model and was conducted at an elementary school in Kudus Regency, Central Java, Indonesia. The developed product consists of 3D animated learning media and a learning guidebook. Validation results from media experts, subject matter experts, and elementary school learning device experts indicated that the product was highly valid. Field testing showed an improvement in students’ reading comprehension, as reflected by higher posttest scores compared to pretest scores. The effectiveness test revealed a high N-Gain value of 0.73. In addition, practicality assessments through student and teacher questionnaires produced very positive results, with scores of 94% and 87.5%, respectively. These findings indicate that 3D animated stories integrated with the DRTA strategy are effective and practical for improving elementary students’ reading comprehension, particularly in narrative text learning.

Dayah Education Model as the Basis for Character and Spirituality Development
type: item
description: This article discusses the role of the Dayah education model in Aceh in developing students' religious and social character, and its relevance as an educational institution grounded in Islamic values amid modernization. This study uses a qualitative-descriptive case study approach to explore in depth the role of Dayah education in character formation. Data was obtained from primary sources (in-depth interviews with teungku, students, and Dayah managers) and secondary sources (curriculum documents, diaries, and kitab kuning). Data collection techniques include participatory observation of learning activities, semi-structured interviews, and documentation studies. The data were analyzed thematically through coding, pattern identification, and interpretation to uncover the values of character education and Dayah adaptation strategies in the modern era. Triangulation of sources and methods is carried out to ensure the validity of the data. The study's findings show that the Dayah functions not only as a center for religious learning but also as a fortress in maintaining the Islamic identity and local culture of the Acehnese people. This research contributes to the literature on character-based Islamic education. It shows that Dayah has the potential to address the challenges of globalization by integrating modern practical skills. Dayah can serve as a relevant and sustainable model of education that maintains tradition while meeting the needs of the times.

Transforming Narrative Text Instruction in Senior High School: Integrating Digital Storytelling and the SFL-GBA Approach
type: item
description: In the digital era, learning increasingly involves multimodal resources, yet explicit teaching of how images and texts contribute to meaning-making through digital storytelling remains underexplored. This study examines the integration of Systemic Functional Linguistics Genre-Based Pedagogy (SFL-GBA) into the teaching of multimodal narrative texts at a private senior high school. A case study was conducted with 28 tenth graders through a team-teaching approach involving an English teacher and a lecturer, with data collected from eight classroom observations. Findings reveal that SFL-GBA effectively supported multimodal learning: during the Building Knowledge of the Field (BKoF) and Modeling of the Text (MoT) stages, students analyzed Field, Tenor, and Mode across texts and images, while in the Joint and Independent Construction stages, they composed narrative texts and transformed them into digital storytelling projects. The study concludes that explicit scaffolding and culturally responsive teaching within SFL-GBA enhance students’ multimodal literacy and narrative competence through digital storytelling. These findings also have important pedagogical implications, indicating that SFL-GBA can guide teachers in designing multimodal instruction and inform future curriculum development for integrating digital storytelling.

Strengthening the Quality of Education through Curriculum Innovation Management in Private Islamic Senior High Schools
type: item
description: This article explains how curriculum innovation is managed to improve educational quality in madrasas, focusing specifically on MA Al-Rosyid Bojonegoro and MA Assalam Tuban. The research uses a field study design with a qualitative–descriptive method and a multiple case study approach. Data were gathered through interviews, observations, and document analysis, and subsequently analyzed within and across cases. The findings show that the planning of curriculum innovation in both madrasas has been structured and carried out effectively to enhance educational quality. This planning includes: (1) the delivery of information related to the conditions and urgency of innovation by the Madrasah principal in a structured manner and in accordance with regulations; (2) active participation of teachers, education staff, committees, and parents; (3) determination of curriculum implementation through annual and semester meetings approved by all related parties; (4) implementation of continuous evaluation through meetings, observations, and routine monthly meetings between the Madrasah principal and the curriculum head, as well as semester meetings with teachers; and (5) holding meetings with parents and the committee at the end of the semester. Theoretically, this research contributes to strengthening the discourse on the quality management of Islamic education in the context of curriculum innovation. At the same time, practically, it offers strategic recommendations for curriculum management in private madrasas in rural areas.

The Pancasila Fortress Campus Tourism Model in Character Strengthening at Sebelas Maret University of Surakarta
type: item
description: This research aims to develop the Pancasila Fortress Campus Tourism Model at Sebelas Maret University (UNS) Surakarta as a character-learning strategy grounded in Pancasila values. The research approach uses mixed methods with descriptive qualitative dominance. Data were obtained through questionnaires, interviews, observations, and documentation involving 148 students of SMA Persatuan Kedungpring Lamongan and 12 mentors, with 100 students as questionnaire respondents. Qualitative data analysis used Miles and Huberman's interactive model, and the instrument's reliability was assessed using Cronbach's Alpha, yielding a value of 0.891, indicating high internal consistency. The study's results show that Pancasila Fort Campus Tourism activities significantly strengthen participants' character, particularly in tolerance, nationalism, and cultural appreciation. The developed model consists of five main components: understanding of the learning model, activity design, implementation, evaluation, and general assessment. Participants responded positively, with an average score in the good-to-very good range, and 90% stated that this program is feasible to implement continuously. This finding confirms that campus tourism is not only a means of introducing the university environment but also an effective experiential learning medium for internalizing Pancasila values in context. This model has the potential to be replicated across various educational institutions as a best practice for strengthening character education.

Far From Home: Adjustment and Social Support Related to Homesickness among Islamic Boarding School Students
type: item
description: Differences in culture and educational systems between public schools and Islamic boarding schools (pesantren) present unique adaptation challenges for students, particularly newcomers. Strict regulations, such as limited opportunities to return home and restricted communication with family, often intensify psychological challenges, including homesickness. If left unaddressed, homesickness may negatively affect students’ psychological well-being and hinder their adjustment process. This study examines the influence of self-adjustment and social support on homesickness among new students at Nurul Iman Islamic Boarding School in Bandung. Using a quantitative causal design, the study involved 81 new students selected through saturated sampling. Data were collected using Likert-scale questionnaires, including the Student Adaptation to College Questionnaire (SACQ), Multidimensional Perceived Social Support Scale (MPSS), and Utrecht Homesickness Scale (UHS), and analyzed using multiple linear regression. The results indicate that self-adjustment and social support together explain a meaningful proportion of variance in homesickness and show a statistically significant negative association, indicating that higher levels of adjustment and perceived social support are associated with lower homesickness. These findings highlight the importance of strengthening students’ adaptive capacities and social support systems and provide practical implications for pesantren administrators in designing programs that facilitate smoother adjustment among new students.

Evaluation of the Religious Development of Students at SMK Al-Azhar Batam in Building Spiritual Awareness Based on Religious Dimensions
type: item
description: This study evaluates the effectiveness of religious development programs at SMK Al-Azhar Batam in fostering students' spiritual awareness using the framework of religious dimensions. The primary aim is to assess how these structured programs instill spiritual consciousness, ensuring students internalize and practice Islamic values as intrinsic daily elements. This research addresses a gap in prior studies that focused mainly on discipline and autonomy. Employing a qualitative field research approach with descriptive methods, the study focused on students and program coordinators at SMK Al-Azhar Batam as subjects. Primary data were collected through semi-structured interviews with teachers or coordinators and direct observations during religious activities. Data analysis followed Miles and Huberman's model. Findings indicate that programs (communal prayers, Quranic recitations, public speaking) successfully embedded key religious dimensions like belief, ritual, and moral practice in students' spiritual habits. However, critical challenges were identified: limitations in consistent evaluation and follow-through. The study recommends systematic evaluations and enhanced program designs to maximize impact on spiritual consciousness. The original contribution lies in the comprehensive application of religious dimensions to evaluate educational outcomes.

Internalizing Multicultural Values through History Education: A Phenomenological Study at SMAS Tunas Markatin Jakarta
type: item
description: This study explores how students internalize multicultural values through history education in a diverse school context. Conducted at SMAS Tunas Markatin Jakarta, the research examines students’ understanding of tolerance, empathy, and cooperation within a learning environment that mirrors Indonesia’s plural society. Using a qualitative phenomenological approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews, classroom observations, and document analysis involving 20 students and three history teachers. The findings show that students at SMAS Tunas Markatin Jakarta have begun to internalize multicultural values through daily interactions that reflect respect, cooperation, and empathy. Their tolerance is evident in behaviors such as honoring peers’ religious practices and collaborating across ethnic and religious lines. Acts of mutual support during moments of personal difficulty further illustrate emerging social empathy. However, students’ understanding of multiculturalism remains mostly behavioral and has not yet developed into deeper reflective awareness. The school’s heterogeneous composition provides authentic opportunities for cross-cultural engagement that strengthen the internalization of values. History lessons emphasizing national unity help reinforce students’ appreciation of Indonesia’s plural identity. However, reliance on memorization and teachers' limited ability to connect historical content with contemporary diversity issues constrain deeper learning. Additionally, the absence of inclusive learning materials and school practices that favor the majority continues to pose significant challenges.

The Implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum and Its Implications for the Internalization of Anti-Corruption Values Among Students
type: item
description: This study aims to analyze the implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum and its implications for the internalization of anti-corruption values among students in public junior high schools (SMPN) in Singaraja City. The research employed a descriptive qualitative approach, with data collected through in-depth interviews with teachers involved in implementing the Merdeka Curriculum at SMP Negeri 2 and SMP Negeri 4 Singaraja. The findings indicate that implementing the Merdeka Curriculum has positive implications for the internalization of anti-corruption values, particularly through project-based learning and the Pancasila Student Profile Strengthening Project (Proek Penguatan Profil Pelajar Pancasila/P5), which facilitates the contextual cultivation of values such as honesty, responsibility, and integrity. The curriculum's flexibility allows teachers to design character education that is relevant to students’ learning experiences. However, these implications have not yet been fully optimized due to several constraints, including limited operational guidelines for anti-corruption education, insufficient teacher training, and uneven understanding among students and educators regarding the substance of anti-corruption values. In addition, institutional support from schools and family involvement in reinforcing value-based practices remain suboptimal. This study recommends strengthening collaborative strategies among schools, local governments, and the community to ensure the sustainable internalization of anti-corruption values within the Merdeka Curriculum framework. This research contributes to the development of contextual character education practices and provides insights for the formulation of anti-corruption education policies at the school level.

The Role of Human Resource Management in Implementing the Merdeka Curriculum: A Deep Learning Approach in Elementary Education at Polewali Mandar
type: item
description: This study examines how human resource management (HRM) practices enable the successful implementation of Indonesia’s Merdeka Curriculum to support deep learning in elementary schools. Using a qualitative multiple-case study design, data were collected from four elementary schools in Palu City, Indonesia. The data sources included interviews with school leaders and teachers, classroom observations, and relevant district-level policy documents. Data were analyzed through thematic analysis to identify patterns in HRM practices related to curriculum implementation. The findings reveal four interdependent themes: strategic HRM alignment, professional development transformation, leadership and school culture, and systemic support and constraints. These themes form an integrated HRM–Deep Learning Synergy model, illustrating a continuous relationship in which supportive policy environments sustain teacher recruitment, capacity building, and collaborative leadership. The study also finds that weaknesses in one component—such as limited professional development or rigid administrative structures—can disrupt the overall cycle and reduce curriculum effectiveness. This research contributes to the literature on educational leadership, HRM, and deep learning by offering practical implications for policymakers and school leaders seeking to transform schools into learning organizations that foster higher-order thinking and meaningful learning.

Integration of Islamic Religious Education with Environmental Education in Building Ecological Ethics of Students
type: item
description: This study aims to analyze the integration of Islamic Religious Education with Environmental Education to develop ecological ethics among students at Hidayatullah Junior High School, Batam. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with a case study design, collecting data through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and documentation of teachers, principals, and students. The results show that the integration of Islamic Religious Education and Environmental Education at SMP Hidayatullah Batam is realized through Islamic values-based learning linked to environmental conservation, including teaching environmental-themed verses of the Qur'an, an eco-friendly school program, and Clean Friday activities. The implementation of this integration positively affects the development of ecological ethics among students, as reflected in their increased concern for environmental cleanliness, energy conservation, and active involvement in environmental conservation activities. Islamic values such as amanah (trust), ihsan (kindness), and khalifah fil-ardh (vicegerent) provide a spiritual foundation that strengthens students' ecological behavior. Supporting factors such as school commitment, community support, and parental participation are key factors in maintaining the sustainability of the integration program. This educational model can serve as a reference for developing Islamic education with an ecotheological perspective, relevant to the current challenge of global environmental degradation.

Comparison of Deaf Children's Ability to Write Texts, Procedures, and Implementing Procedures for Cooking Instant Noodles
type: item
description: This study aims to reveal the differences in the abilities of deaf children in writing procedural texts and carrying out daily procedures. No study has been found that specifically compares deaf children's abilities to write procedural texts and to carry out procedures directly, especially in the Indonesian context. This study uses a descriptive, quantitative approach and involves 10 deaf students aged 12 to 18 years at the Tarbiyatul Mutaalimin Pagaden Special School, Subang. Data were collected using two instruments: a test of writing procedural texts on how to cook instant noodles and direct observation of the cooking process. Data from the writing test and practical observation will be compared to identify significant differences between the two abilities. A paired t-test was performed in SPSS to compare procedural text writing test scores with procedural practice observation scores. The results showed that deaf children's ability to write procedural texts was lower than their ability to carry out daily procedures. The average score for the procedural writing test was 47 out of 100, while the procedural practice observation showed an average score of 79.6 out of 100. Limitations influenced this difference in the use of appropriate language, limited vocabulary, and difficulty constructing logical, structured sentences.

Integrating Islamic Boarding School Values into Indonesian Language Learning
type: item
description: This study examines how Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) values moderation (tawasuth), balance (tawazun), and tolerance (tasamuh) are integrated into Indonesian language learning in pesantren-based high schools in Jombang, Indonesia. Using a qualitative ethnopedagogical approach, data were gathered through observation, interviews, and document analysis involving 20 purposively selected teachers and students. The findings show that learning practices in these schools reflect the principles of Culturally Responsive Teaching (CRT) rooted in NU’s Islamic traditions. Moderation appears in educational sanctions that balance academic discipline and moral guidance, while tolerance emerges through heterogeneous student groupings that foster empathy and intercultural communication. These practices demonstrate how NU’s moral-spiritual values shape classroom management, learning materials, and teacher–student interactions. The study introduces the concept of Islamic Culturally Responsive Pedagogy, expanding CRT theory by embedding Islamic ethnopedagogical principles that emphasize spiritual and social harmony. Theoretically, this research contributes to the development of culturally grounded learning models that integrate local religious values. In practice, the findings offer guidance for designing character-based, inclusive Indonesian language learning suitable for pesantren-based schools and other multicultural educational settings.

type: item
description: This study examines the effect of the Ergonomic of Reggio Emilia Approach (EoREA) and Mastery Motivation (MM) on Early Childhood Independence (ECI). Thus, the purpose is to determine the main and interaction effects of the treatment variables on ECI. There are three variables in the study, namely: the independent variable (EoREA), the moderator variable (MM), and the dependent variable (ECI). The quasi-experimental study used a 2 x 2 factorial design, and the subjects were students from Play Group. The results showed a difference in the ECI between learning using play environment arrangements according to the EoREA and NEoREA, as indicated by a significant F value (F = 20.441; p < 0.05). There was also a difference in the ECI between students with high and low MM, as indicated by F = 4.580; p < 0.05. It is also known that there was an interaction between the EoREA model and MM on the ECI, as evidenced by F = 9.478, p < 0.05. Thus, it can be concluded that the three hypotheses in this study have been proven, so that the EoREA model assisted by MM can be applied to stimulate ECI.

In-Depth Learning for Students with Deafness in Special Schools: A Literature Study
type: item
description: The Deep Learning paradigm offers the potential to improve learning quality through conceptual understanding and metacognitive reflection. However, studies of its application in deaf education in Indonesia are very limited. This study aims to conduct a systematic literature review to map the opportunities, challenges, and conceptual models of deep learning relevant to deaf students. This study uses a qualitative literature review with a systematic integrative review design, which is analyzed using thematic content analysis across the stages of open coding, axial coding, and selective coding. The research identified three key opportunities for implementing Deep Learning: optimizing visual and kinesthetic modalities through interactive media, developing self-regulated learning through visual reflection, and strengthening social collaboration through community learning. These findings resulted in recommendations for project-based visual-reflective learning models, interactive media, and portfolio assessments. This research encourages teachers to design learning that stimulates deep thinking; schools to strengthen professional collaboration and provide visual learning environments; and the government to improve teacher training and inclusive technology facilities. Further research is recommended to test the effectiveness of this model through experiments and field implementation in various special needs schools (SLB).

Cultivating Lecturer Professionalism in Islamic Higher Education: A Phenomenological Exploration of Disciplinary Alignment, Digital Adaptation, and Ethical Engagement
type: item
description: Professionalism among Guidance and Counseling lecturers plays a vital role in improving the quality of higher education and fulfilling the Tri Dharma of Higher Education—teaching, research, and community service. While teacher professionalism has been widely discussed, limited attention has been given to its development within Islamic higher education, where academic competence is closely intertwined with moral and social values. This study examines the readiness and professional development strategies of Guidance and Counseling lecturers at Institut Agama Islam Negeri (IAIN) Langsa in Aceh, Indonesia. Using a qualitative phenomenological approach, the research explores lecturers’ lived experiences in shaping professional identity and practice. Data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and document analysis involving ten purposively selected informants, including institutional leaders, lecturers, staff, and students. Data were analyzed through stages of collection, condensation, display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that lecturer professionalism is constructed through three interconnected dimensions: disciplinary alignment in teaching, adaptive integration of digital technology, and sustained engagement in research and community service grounded in counseling ethics. The study concludes that professionalism in Islamic higher education extends beyond technical competence to include ethical commitment and contextual responsiveness, highlighting the need for integrated institutional support for sustainable professional development.

Digital Data-Based Inclusive Vocational Learning Capital in Injection Motor Maintenance Material for Deaf Students
type: item
description: Inequality in access to modern technology in vocational education for deaf students is a major obstacle to developing job skills aligned with current industry needs. This study aims to implement and evaluate the effectiveness of digital technology-based vocational learning in Honda injection motor maintenance for deaf students at Special Schools (SLB). The method used is a descriptive qualitative method, involving 2–4 SMALB students as research subjects. Data collection techniques include observing practical activities, documenting, interviewing vocational teachers, and evaluating student skills. A case study was chosen to describe the contextual application of digital technology-based Honda injection engine maintenance learning using K-Line-based OBD FTDI for deaf students in special education units. The learning stages included introduction to tools, demonstrations, data reading practice, diagnosis result interpretation, visual discussions, and basic corrective actions. The results show that students can understand the tools' functions, read fault codes, and visually identify technical problems. Obstacles in understanding technical terms are overcome through visual media-based learning strategies, illustrated guidebooks, and video tutorials. In terms of affection and participation, this learning increases student motivation, confidence, and active involvement in practice. Vocational teachers play a strategic role in simplifying technical concepts into adaptive visual and procedural forms. New findings from this study indicate that the use of digital automotive diagnostic tools as learning media can help bridge the communication barriers faced by deaf students in technical learning contexts. Thus, this approach is considered effective and feasible for continuous integration into the SLB vocational curriculum.

The Essential Needs in Developing Genre-Based Pedagogy Teaching Materials for Essay Writing
type: item
description: Essay writing is an important academic skill in higher education because it requires not only language proficiency but also critical and analytical thinking. However, existing teaching materials often do not fully support students in developing these skills. This study aims to analyze students’ needs for genre-based essay writing teaching materials in the Indonesian Language Education program. The research used a descriptive quantitative approach involving 150 undergraduate students from UIN Fatmawati Sukarno Bengkulu and IAIN Curup. Data were collected using a 15-item questionnaire on a five-point Likert scale, covering content, language, structure, and media aspects. The results showed a needs score of 60.16%, categorized as “needed,” indicating that current materials are still insufficient. Students need clearer explanations, structured writing steps, genre examples, simple academic language, and supportive visual media. All questionnaire items were valid and reliable (Cronbach’s Alpha = 0.971). Therefore, systematic, student-centered teaching materials need to be developed to support essay writing instruction better.

A Critical Listening Teaching Model with Students’ Self-Mediated Podcast to Enhance Critical Thinking: ARRRIPS Model
type: item
description: This study addresses the challenge of fostering critical thinking in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) instruction, particularly in the Critical Listening course. To meet this need, the ARRRIPS model—Analyze, Review, Revise, Record, Immediately Podcast, and Share was developed. The research adopted a Research and Development (R&D) design guided by the ADDIE model. Conducted at Universitas Negeri Semarang (UNNES), the study involved two classes: an experimental group using the ARRRIPS model and a control group receiving a conventional instruction model. A quasi-experimental design was applied to evaluate the model’s effectiveness, using pre- and post-tests for quantitative analysis, and interviews, observations, and students’ artefacts for qualitative insights. Instruments included a validated critical thinking rubric based on Facione’s (1990) framework, perception questionnaires, interview guides, and observation checklists. Quantitative data analyzed with SPSS 25 showed a significant difference between the experimental group (mean = 15.59) and the control group (mean = 7.97; p < 0.001). Qualitative data revealed enhanced engagement, autonomy, and metacognitive reflection among the students. The study concludes that the ARRRIPS model effectively improves critical thinking in EFL listening instruction. It offers a practical, technology-integrated framework aligned with Merdeka Curriculum goals and learner-centered pedagogies.

Prajuritan Dance as a Medium for Anti-Corruption Character Education: A Phenomenological Study in Banyubiru Village
type: item
description: This study examines the Prajuritan dance as an educational tool for fostering an anti-corruption character within the community of Banyubiru Village in Semarang Regency. Using a qualitative, phenomenological approach, the research explores the subjective experiences of artists, including dancers, trainers, and local cultural figures. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentary studies, and were analysed using thematic analysis. The findings suggest that the Prajuritan dance embodies strong anti-corruption values, such as integrity, responsibility, self-discipline, and honesty. These values are not explicitly taught, but rather internalised through repeated cultural practices, the narrative structure of the dance, and collective community engagement. The study highlights the potential of traditional arts to serve as an effective ethical space for character education, particularly in community-based efforts to prevent corruption. Incorporating local arts into anti-corruption education strategies can reinforce a value ecosystem that is contextualised and grounded in the community's social experiences.

description: This study aims to develop and evaluate the feasibility of Adobe Flash CS6-based learning media for Physical Education, Sports, and Health (PJOK) subjects for Grade VIII students at SMP Negeri 24 OKU. The study employed a research and development (R&D) approach, conducted through stages of design, development, expert validation, and field testing. The data were obtained from media experts, learning design experts, material experts, and students as research subjects. The population of this study consisted of all Grade VIII students, with samples selected through staged trials: individual testing (3 students), small-group testing (7 students), and field testing (28 students). Data were collected using validation sheets and questionnaires and analyzed using descriptive statistical techniques, including percentage feasibility analysis. The results indicate that the developed learning media achieved very good feasibility criteria based on expert validation and student trials. Media, design, and materials experts rated the product as highly feasible, while student responses showed positive perceptions of ease of use, attractiveness, and clarity of learning content. These findings demonstrate that Adobe Flash CS6-based learning media is suitable for use as a learning support tool in PJOK subjects at the junior high school level and has the potential to enhance student engagement and learning motivation.
