IMPLEMENTASI SUPERVISI KLINIS DIFERENSIASI DALAM MENINGKATKAN KUALITAS PEDAGOGIS PENDIDIK PENDIDIKAN ANAK USIA DINI: STUDI KASUS DI TK MUBAROK SALATIGA
This study aims to analyze the implementation of differentiated clinical supervision in improving the pedagogical quality of early childhood education teachers at TK Mubarok Salatiga. The research is grounded in the existing gap in the quality of early childhood educators in Indonesia, where many teachers have not met the minimum academic qualification requirements, as well as the limited number of studies that specifically examine clinical supervision using a differentiated approach. Employing a qualitative case study design, the research involved the principal, six teachers, foundation representatives, and parents selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through observations, in-depth interviews, and document analysis. The findings reveal that differentiated clinical supervision is implemented through systematic planning, execution across pre-conference, classroom observation, and post-conference stages, and the application of directive, collaborative, and non-directive approaches tailored to teachers’ characteristics. The results also show that differentiated clinical supervision significantly enhances teaching quality, teachers’ pedagogical competence, and their motivation to pursue higher academic qualifications.

MENINGKATKAN HASIL HAFALAN MELALUI MANAJEMEN KURIKULUM TAHFIDZ AL- QUR’AN
This study aims to describe the implementation of the Qur'an memorization program at MI TBS Al Fathonah, which is integrated into the school curriculum. The study uses a qualitative approach with data collection techniques through in-depth interviews with the principal and memorization teachers. The results show that the tahfidz program is implemented in a structured manner in teaching and learning activities (KBM) with an allocation of ten hours of lessons per week. Students are grouped into Grade A and Grade B based on their memorization abilities to improve learning effectiveness. The memorization method used is tailored to the abilities of the students, especially in lower grades, which still use the sima'i method (listening and imitating). The tahfidz program is also reinforced through daily murāja’ah practice, parental involvement, and a continuous assessment system through memorization tests and achievement books. The main obstacles faced are the limited number of tahfidz teachers and learning time that is divided with other flagship programs, adaptive methods, and collaboration between schools and parents.
PENDEKATAN HERMENEUTIKA FILOSOFIS UNTUK MEMAHAMI MAKNA PROFESI GURU AGAMA DALAM DINAMIKA TUNTUTAN MUTU GLOBAL
This study aims to analyze and interpret the meaning of the religious teaching profession in facing the dynamics of global quality demands through a philosophical hermeneutic approach. The study employed a qualitative approach with a case study conducted at Al-Fath Islamic Junior High School in Pare, Kediri. Data collection techniques included in-depth interviews, participant observation, documentation, and audio analysis to comprehensively capture the experiences and meaning-making processes of religious teachers. Data analysis was conducted using the Miles and Huberman interactive model, which encompasses data reduction, data presentation, and reflective conclusion drawing. Data validity was checked through triangulation of sources, methods, and observers to ensure the validity and credibility of the research findings. The results indicate that the meaning of the religious teaching profession has shifted from a doctrinal role to an interpretive and reflective role. Religious teachers are understood as facilitators of meaning who bridge religious teachings with socio-global realities, while simultaneously navigating the tension between local-religious values ​​and global quality demands. The professionalism of religious teachers is defined as a continuous process of meaning-making supported by self-reflection, pedagogical adaptation, moral role modeling, and a synthesis of spiritual and global competencies.
PENGEMBANGAN E-LKPD BERBASIS MODEL GAME BASED LEARNING BERBANTUAN BLOOKET PADA PEMBELAJARAN PAI-BP TERHADAP MINAT DAN HASIL BELAJAR PESERTA DIDIK KELAS X SMA
Objective: This research aims to develop a student e-worksheet (e-LKPD) based on a game based learning model assisted by blooket on the learning of Islamic Religious Education and Ethics of insurance, banks, and sharia cooperatives in high school class X. This research is motivated by the still dominance of the use of conventional teaching materials that have not fully supported students' interests and learning outcomes, especially in conceptual and abstract materials. This research is a research and development by adapting the Plomp development model which includes three stages, namely preliminary research, prototyping phase, and assessment phase. The research data was collected through observation of learning implementation, validation and practicality questionnaires, learning interest questionnaires, and student learning outcome tests, then analyzed descriptively, quantitatively, and qualitatively. The results of the study show that the e-LKPD based on game based learning assisted by blooket that was developed met very valid criteria based on expert assessment, practical in the implementation of learning, and effectively used in supporting students' interests and learning outcomes. The novelty of this research lies in the development of digital e-LKPD that integrates the game based learning model with the blooket platform systematically through the Plomp model in PAI and Ethics learning, so that it can be an alternative to innovative teaching materials that are relevant to the characteristics of 21st century learning.

ANALYSIS OF STUDENTS MISCONCEPTIONS IN SOLVING QUADRATIC INEQUALITIES: A CASE STUDY IN THE INFORMATICS STUDY PROGRAM
Strong mathematical foundations are crucial for informatics students, yet they frequently encounter difficulties with foundational topics such as quadratic inequalities, revealing a significant disconnect between procedural competence and conceptual understanding. This study investigates the nature and origins of misconceptions in solving quadratic inequalities among informatics students, using Vergnaud’s Theory of Conceptual Fields as an analytical framework. A qualitative case study was conducted with 28 students from an Informatics Study Program. Data were collected through triangulation, including analysis of written solutions to five inequality problems and a self-report questionnaire featuring Likert-scale and open-ended questions. The analysis followed four stages: error identification, frequency profiling, cognitive scheme analysis, and representational analysis. Findings indicate that the most common errors were procedural, notably incorrect sign reversal when multiplying or dividing by a negative number (46.4% reported high difficulty) and misdetermining solution intervals for perfect square inequalities (39.3%). Conceptual errors were linked to underdeveloped cognitive schemes, especially in connecting critical points to interval testing and translating contextual problems into mathematical symbols.
ANALISIS KESULITAN MAHASISWA DALAM MENGUASAI TEKNIK GITAR KLASIK PADA PROGRAM STUDI PENDIDIKAN MUSIK
The purpose of this study was to analyze the difficulties students face when learning classical guitar techniques in music education programs. Mastering classical guitar techniques is a crucial skill for music education students because it requires complex technical, musical, and theoretical skills. However, during the learning process, students often encounter various obstacles that prevent them from acquiring these skills. This study used qualitative methods to collect data in the form of a literature review conducted through a review of textbooks, academic journals, research articles, and other academic sources related to classical guitar and music education. The analysis found that students' difficulties generally relate to basic technical aspects such as hand position, fingering, and left/right hand coordination, as well as learning more advanced techniques such as arpeggios, tremolos, and music interpretation. Additionally, other factors contributing to student difficulties include limited practice time, differences in musical backgrounds, a lack of understanding of musical notation, and low learning motivation. The results of this study are expected to serve as material for curriculum evaluation to develop more effective and adaptive classical guitar teaching strategies tailored to the needs of teachers and students, thereby improving the quality of teaching and learning outcomes in music education programs.
STRATEGI BRANDING SEKOLAH BERBASIS CERAH DALAM MENINGKATKAN DAYA TARIK CALON PESERTA DIDIK DI SDN GIRIPURNO 1
This study analyzes the branding strategy of SDN Giripurno 1 through the "CERAH" concept (Intelligent, Religious, Adaptive, and Harmonious) to enhance its appeal amidst intense competition with private schools. The research focuses on how a public elementary school builds a distinct identity to address shifting public preferences that prioritize school image and graduate character. Using a descriptive qualitative approach with library research, data were gathered from internal documents, curriculum, and digital publications, then analyzed systematically. The results show that integrating CERAH values into internal, external, and experience branding strategies creates strong institutional differentiation. Consistent communication of these character values significantly boosted public trust and enrollment interest. The originality of this research lies in its exploration of value-based branding within a public school context, an area often overlooked in educational literature. Unlike previous studies focusing on physical facilities, this research demonstrates that the comprehensive institutionalization of character values serves as a strategic magnet, strengthening a school’s competitive position in the modern era.

STRUKTURASI PENDIDIKAN INKLUSI PADA LINGKUNGAN HETEROGEN
This study aims to analyze the structuration of inclusive education implementation within a heterogeneous environment and to understand the awareness of students with different abilities (difabel) following the receipt of inclusive education at SMA Negeri 1 Gedangan, Sidoarjo. This research employs a qualitative method with a case study approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews using semi-structured guides and documentation from various secondary sources. The results indicate that the implementation of inclusive education at SMA Negeri 1 Gedangan has been optimized through several initiatives, including the adjustment of the regular curriculum by lowering the Minimum Completeness Criteria (KKM) for students with disabilities, the provision of Special Assistant Teachers (GPK), and the establishment of resource rooms. This practice forms an "inclusive culture," which is the outcome of the duality between agents (school, teachers, students) and structure (government policies and school regulations). From the perspective of Anthony Giddens' Structuration Theory, these social practices are influenced by the structural dimensions of significance, domination, and legitimation. Furthermore, the study finds that the educational process fosters "practical consciousness" in students with disabilities who can perform routine activities according to their abilities, while others exhibit "discursive consciousness" due to inconsistencies between their routines and their specific capabilities.
DEKONSTRUKSI KONSEP MUTU PENDIDIKAN ISLAM TINJAUAN KRITIS TEORI MANAGERIALISM DAN IMPLIKASINYA TERHADAP HUMANISASI PENDIDIKAN
This study aims to deconstruct the concept of quality in Islamic education, which has long been dominated by the paradigm of managerialism, and to analyze its implications for the humanization of education. The main focus of the study is to reveal the tension between managerial logic that emphasizes efficiency, standardization, and quantitative measurability, and the holistic objectives of Islamic education oriented toward the formation of faithful, moral, and civilized human beings. This research employs a qualitative approach within a critical–interpretive paradigm, using a library research method supported by field data in the form of interviews and observations conducted at MI Miftahul Huda Tugu Mulyo, Ogan Komering Ilir. Data analysis techniques include content analysis and critical analysis of reputable academic literature, policy documents, and empirical findings. The findings indicate that managerialism theory creates structural tensions with the holistic goals of Islamic education, reduces the meaning of educational quality to administrative achievements and quantitative indicators, and marginalizes the humanization of education as a quality indicator that is, in fact, crucial.
PROBLEMATIKA KESETARAAN GENDER DAN PERLINDUNGAN HAM DALAM PENERAPAN HUKUM
Gender equality and the protection of human rights are crucial issues in the social, political and legal context in Indonesia. This article aims to analyze the understanding and application of gender equality in a legal perspective, evaluate the challenges of human rights protection, and identify the problematic application of law in various sectors. This research uses a qualitative approach with a literature study method through documentation techniques and descriptive analysis. The results of the study show that although Indonesia has ratified international instruments such as CEDAW and has regulations that protect gender equality, its implementation still faces significant obstacles in the form of a wage gap, limited access to education for women in rural areas, injustice in inheritance law, and weak law enforcement against gender-based violence. Patriarchal cultural factors, gender bias of law enforcement officials, and lack of public legal awareness are the main obstacles. The implications of this research emphasize the need for gender-responsive legal reform, increasing the capacity of law enforcement officials, and strengthening public education and legal awareness as the basis for formulating inclusive and equitable legal policies to strengthen human rights protection in Indonesia.

PERAN SISTEM INFOMASI MANAJEMEN PENDIDIKAN (SIMDIK) DALAM MENINGKATKAN KUALITAS PENGELOLAAN PONDOK PESANTREN: STUDI LITERATUR REVIEW
Digital transformation demands that Islamic boarding schools (pesantren) adopt Education Management Information Systems (EMIS) to strengthen governance. However, literature on this topic remains scattered and has not been systematically synthesized. This study aims to identify the role of EMIS in improving the management quality of pesantren and to map key themes, benefits, challenges, and future research agendas. Using the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method with the PRISMA protocol, data were collected from Google Scholar, SINTA, and Scopus (2020–2025). From 118 initial articles, 11 relevant studies were selected for analysis through thematic synthesis. The results reveal seven primary themes regarding the role of EMIS: (1) educational administration management, (2) learning and infrastructure management, (3) financial and funding management, (4) student recruitment management, (5) technology-based service innovation, (6) information system policy and implementation, and (7) stakeholder acceptance and usage of EMIS. This synthesis demonstrates that EMIS significantly enhances efficiency, transparency, accountability, and data-driven decision-making. Nevertheless, implementation is still hindered by constraints in human resource competence, infrastructure, and cultural resistance.
PROGRAM EVALUATION OF MUADALAH MUALLIMIN PESANTREN USING COUNTENANCE MODEL
Pesantren have received state recognition, institutional strengthening, and equal rights in the implementation of educational activities through Law No. 18 of 2019 on Pesantren.

TANTANGAN MANAJERIAL DALAM MENGELOLA SUMBER DAN JENIS PEMBIAYAAN DI LEMBAGA PENDIDIKAN ISLAM
Islamic educational institution managers must be able to plan, organize, direct, and control funds effectively. In reality, many Islamic educational institutions still face challenges in managing their finances professionally. Financial management is a crucial aspect of the sustainability of Islamic educational institutions. This article discusses the managerial challenges faced in managing sources and types of financing in these institutions. Limited funding, which depends on internal sources such as community donations, zakat, infaq, and waqf, is a major obstacle to the development of quality education. Additionally, the lack of financial management capacity and strategic planning further complicates the process of allocating and utilizing funds effectively. This study employs a qualitative descriptive approach with literature review as the primary method. The findings indicate that strengthening managerial competencies, diversifying funding sources, and ensuring transparency in financial management are key to addressing these challenges. Therefore, collaboration between institutional leaders, the government, and the community is necessary to create a sustainable and accountable funding system to support the quality and existence of Islamic educational institutions.

Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kondisi sarana dan prasarana di Pondok Pesantren Ummul Qura belum optimal, dengan banyak fasilitas dalam kondisi rusak, bahkan sebagian ruang kelas tidak memiliki meja dan kursi yang layak. Sekolah juga belum memiliki perpustakaan dan laboratorium IPA, hanya tersedia laboratorium komputer dengan keterbatasan jumlah dan kondisi perangkat. Perencanaan dan pengadaan sarana prasarana telah dilakukan melalui koordinasi antara sekolah dan yayasan, namun masih menghadapi kendala keterlambatan dana dan perbedaan kebijakan. Sistem inventarisasi yang masih manual, keterbatasan anggaran, kurangnya tenaga teknis, serta lemahnya koordinasi antara sekolah dan yayasan menyebabkan pengelolaan sarana prasarana belum berjalan secara optimal. Pemeliharaan hanya dilakukan secara insidental tanpa program terencana, sementara pengawasan dan evaluasi belum dilaksanakan secara terstruktur dan terdokumentasi. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa efektivitas manajemen sarana prasarana sangat dipengaruhi oleh kepemimpinan kepala sekolah, sistem inventarisasi yang baik, koordinasi antarunit, dan dukungan anggaran yang memadai untuk meningkatkan mutu pembelajaran di sekolah berbasis pondok pesantren.

KONSEP MODERASI BERAGAMA DALAM KITAB RISALAH AHLUSSUNNAH WAL JAMA'AH KARYA KH. HASYIM ASY'ARI SEBAGAI BASIS KURIKULUM PAI DI PERGURUAN TINGGI UMUM
Teaching materials often lack contextualization and responsiveness to contemporary issues facing students, such as religiously motivated hoaxes and digital polarization. As a result, a gap exists between the ideals of moderation advocated and students' competency in applying them, making the need for curriculum revitalization urgent.This study aims to develop a curriculum model for Islamic Religious Education (IRE) in public universities to address the challenges of intolerance. Grounded in social reconstruction theory, the model extracts values of religious moderation—tawassuth (moderation), tasamuh (tolerance), tawazun (balance), and i‘tidal (justice)—from Risalah Ahlussunnah wal Jama‘ah by KH. Hasyim Asy‘ari. Through content analysis, evaluation of the existing curriculum, and focus group discussions (FGDs), gaps between needs and current practices were identified. The result is a reconstructionist curriculum prototype featuring contextual materials and problem-based learning strategies. The model has been validated by experts and tested for readability, demonstrating high feasibility in shaping students as agents of moderation.
AI-BASED LEARNING MANAGEMENT: THE INFLUENCE OF THE USE OF AI AND LEARNING ORGANIZATION ON STUDENT LEARNING INNOVATION
The transformation of higher education in the era of the Industrial Revolution 4.0 and Society 5.0 requires institutions to integrate technology and build adaptive learning ecosystems. One of the technologies that is increasingly used is Artificial Intelligence (AI), which is able to personalize the learning experience and increase learning effectiveness.

THE EFFECT OF STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT AND LEARNING CREATIVITY ON LEARNING INNOVATION WITH SELF-EFFICACY AS A MODERATING VARIABLE IN ISLAMIC HIGHER EDUCATION
This study investigates the influence of strategic management and learning creativity on learning innovation, while evaluating the moderating role of self-efficacy within Islamic higher education institutions. Employing a quantitative survey method involving 166 students and analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM), the results demonstrate that strategic management, learning creativity, and self-efficacy significantly affect learning innovation directly. However, the analysis reveals that self-efficacy does not strengthen the relationship between learning creativity and learning innovation. Conversely, self-efficacy acts as a negative moderator in the relationship between strategic management and innovation. These findings suggest that learning innovation is predominantly driven by institutional strategies, creative competencies, and self-confidence as direct predictors. Furthermore, the negative moderation implies a substitution effect, where high self-efficacy may diminish the reliance on strategic management frameworks to drive innovation.

DEVELOPMENT OF PREZI-BASED LEARNING MEDIA TO IMPROVE STUDENTS' LEARNING OUTCOMES IN THE FIQIH SUBJECT AT MAN 1 SUNGAI PENUH
This study aims to develop Prezi-based learning media for Fiqh subjects on buying and selling transactions for Madrasah Aliyah (MA) students. This development was carried out to address students' low understanding due to the delivery of material that tends to be abstract and conventional. This study uses a Research and Development (R&D) approach with the ADDIE (Analyze, Design, Develop, Implement, Evaluate) development model. The research instruments include expert validation questionnaires (material, media, language), practicality questionnaires, and learning outcome tests (pretest and posttest). Data were analyzed descriptively quantitatively and qualitatively, and strengthened by paired sample t-tests to see the effectiveness of the media. Prezi-based media was declared very valid with scores from material experts (85%), media experts (91.5%), and language experts (96%). The practicality level reached 93% (very practical). This media was proven to be effective in improving student learning outcomes from an average pretest of 64.29 to 86.57 in the posttest with a Sig. (2-tailed) value <0.05. The novelty of this research lies in the integration of the Prezi platform, which offers an infinite canvas and a zoomable user interface (ZUI) feature to dynamically visualize the structure of Fiqh Muamalah concepts.

INOVASI PERENCANAAN BIAYA PENDIDIKAN BERBASIS KINERJA
This study develops an innovative performance-based education cost planning model that links spending efficiency, traceable unit costs, and the achievement of educational performance indicators. A library research design was applied through a systematic literature review and qualitative content analysis of studies on performance-based budgeting, performance information quality, standard costs, education fund accountability, and costing methods such as activity-based costing. The synthesis indicates recurring constraints in public-sector budgeting, including education: weak traceability between expenditures and outputs/outcomes, a growing number of performance indicators with low renewal rates, and predominantly input-based standard costs that may not reflect output-based needs. At the institutional level, budgeting difficulties intensify when one activity contributes to multiple indicators, complicating cost attribution to performance targets and potentially weakening efficiency assessment. This study proposes an innovation comprising a Cost–Performance Matrix and a Unit-Cost Performance Dashboard, integrating activity–output–outcome mapping, activity-based unit cost calculation, and standard-cost benchmarking to enhance budget decision quality.

PENGARUH PENGGUNAAN APLIKASI DILETA TERHADAP PENGUATAN NILAI INTEGRITAS ANAK USIA DINI
This study aims to analyze the effect of using the DILETA application on strengthening the integrity values ​​of early childhood. The background of the study lies in previous findings that show that although the DILETA application is effective in improving several aspects of character, integrity values ​​are still the component with the lowest achievement. This study uses a quantitative approach with an explanatory design through simple linear regression analysis. The study sample consisted of 30 children aged 5–6 years who participated in learning using the DILETA application. The research instruments were an application usage questionnaire and an integrity observation sheet that had been validated by experts. The results showed that the use of the DILETA application had a significant effect on children's integrity values ​​(p < 0.05), with a regression coefficient of 0.599. The determination value (R² = 0.457) indicates that 45.7% of the variation in children's integrity is explained by the use of the application, while the rest is influenced by external factors such as habits at home, the school environment, and children's social interactions. These findings confirm the effectiveness of ethical dilemma simulations in stimulating moral development according to the theories of Piaget, Kohlberg, and Hurlock. However, the initial version of the DILETA application was still linear and therefore unable to provide an adaptive moral experience.
MODEL BRANDING SMART-Q SEBAGAI PENGUATAN SDM MADRASAH BERKARAKTER QUR’ANI
Madrasahs are expected to provide high-quality education while instilling Qur’anic values; however, in practice, there remains a gap between the ideal role of madrasahs and the actual conditions encountered in the field. MI Ma’arif Pijenan reflects this gap through limited facilities, declining student enrollment, and suboptimal quality of human resources, which have resulted in decreased public trust. To date, studies on madrasah quality improvement have generally positioned branding merely as an institutional promotional strategy, rather than as an integrated quality management system linked to human resource development and Qur’anic values. This study examines the implementation of SMART-Q branding (Spiritual, Moral, Academic, Relational, and Tahfidz Quality) as an effort to bridge this gap. The research employs a qualitative descriptive method with a case study approach. Data were collected through observation, interviews, documentation, and literature review, and analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model. The findings indicate that SMART-Q branding is able to strengthen madrasah quality holistically through the enhancement of spirituality, moral development, academic improvement, social relations, and the tahfidz program as a Qur’anic identity. The novelty of this study lies in conceptualizing branding as an integrated quality management system based on Qur’anic values, rather than merely as a promotional strategy

The development of 21st-century education requires learning approaches that emphasize the cultivation of Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) as essential competencies for students. However, the implementation of Islamic Religious Education (PAI) learning remains predominantly focused on Lower Order Thinking Skills, resulting in limited development of students’ analytical, evaluative, and creative abilities. This study aims to analyze and develop cognitive learning strategies based on HOTS within the context of Islamic Religious Education. This research employs a qualitative approach through conceptual library research. Data were collected from reputable national and international academic journals, key reference books, and relevant educational policy documents published within the last ten years. Data analysis was conducted using content analysis and thematic-conceptual analysis of recent literature.

The coefficient of determination value shows that the two independent variables are able to explain 32.1% of the variation in student learning motivation, while the rest is influenced by other factors outside the research model. These findings emphasize the importance of implementing effective teaching styles and providing adequate learning facilities as strategic efforts to increase student learning motivation.
BALANCE SCORECARD: MODEL, IMPLEMENTASI, DAN DAMPAK TERHADAP KINERJA INSTITUSI PENDIDIKAN
This study aims to conduct an in-depth analysis of the conceptual model of the Balanced Scorecard (BSC), its implementation in various educational institutions, and its impact on institutional performance. The study seeks to assess the extent to which the BSC can serve as a strategic instrument that aligns an institution’s vision, mission, and strategy with measurable and balanced performance indicators across academic, administrative, and spiritual dimensions. This research employs a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) as the primary approach to review and synthesize previous studies related to the model, implementation, and impact of the Balanced Scorecard (BSC) in educational institutions. The findings indicate that the application of the BSC significantly enhances the effectiveness, efficiency, and accountability of educational organizations. The four main perspectives of the BSC—financial, customer, internal process, and learning and growth—are proven to strengthen institutional governance and stakeholder satisfaction. Most prior studies employed descriptive or single-case study approaches, resulting in limited cross-institutional and cross-national synthesis. Therefore, this study fills that gap by conducting an SLR on numerous open-access articles, providing a more comprehensive synthesis and reinforcing the empirical evidence on the effectiveness of the Balanced Scorecard in education.

INTEGRASI WAHYU DAN AKAL DALAM PENDIDIKAN ISLAM KAJIAN EPISTIMILOGIS UNTUK PENGEMBANGAN KURIKULUM
Knowledge in the Islamic perspective is derived from revelation and reason, which should be understood as an integrated epistemological unity. However, in contemporary Islamic education practices, a separation between the two remains evident, particularly in curriculum development, resulting in learning processes that do not fully reflect the integration of revelatory values and rational reasoning. This study aims to examine the epistemological integration of revelation and reason as a foundation for the development of the Islamic education curriculum, including the formulation of educational objectives, the development of curriculum content, and the selection of instructional methods. This research employs a qualitative approach using a library research method, drawing upon primary and secondary sources in the form of scholarly works, journal articles, and contemporary books relevant to Islamic educational epistemology and curriculum development. The data are analyzed through content analysis techniques, emphasizing the conceptual interrelationships between revelation, reason, and curricular practices. The findings indicate that the integration of revelation and reason can be formulated as an applicable epistemological framework that guides the formulation of holistic educational objectives, the development of integrative curriculum content, and the implementation of contextual and reflective learning methods.

PEMAKNAAN GURU TERHADAP BUDAYA DISIPLIN SEBAGAI FAKTOR PEMBENTUK KINERJA DI SDN DERMO I BANGIL
Objective: This study aims to explore teachers’ interpretations of disciplinary culture as a factor shaping performance at SDN Dermo I Bangil. The phenomenon of teacher discipline in elementary education is often viewed from an administrative perspective, yet it carries deeper meanings related to moral values and professional identity. This research employed a qualitative phenomenological approach, focusing on the lived experiences of teachers in internalizing and practicing discipline within their professional environment. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, participant observation, and document analysis, involving three key informants—grade 2, 4, and 5 teachers—selected using purposive sampling. Data analysis followed the interactive model of Miles and Huberman, revealing four main themes: (1) discipline as a moral and professional value, (2) disciplinary culture as the school’s collective identity, (3) discipline as a driver of teacher performance and student order, and (4) challenges in balancing administrative demands with intrinsic motivation. Discipline was perceived not merely as compliance with rules but as a form of moral responsibility and an expression of dedication to the teaching profession. The findings indicate that a morally grounded disciplinary culture plays a central role in sustaining teacher performance and school effectiveness. Theoretically, this study extends the understanding of meaning-making within educational organizational culture.

EVALUASI PROGRAM MA'HAD AL -JAMI’AH TERHADAP PENGUATAN LITERASI AL-QUR’AN DAN KECERDASAN EMOSIONAL MAHASISWA UIN PALOPO
The phenomenon shows that some students do not have the ability to read the Qur'an according to the rules of tajweed and are not able to internalize the values of the Qur'an in controlling emotions and academic behavior. This condition is influenced by the heterogeneity of initial abilities, the limitation of the duration of coaching, and the implementation of the Ma'had Al-Jami'ah Program which runs in parallel with lectures. This situation requires a comprehensive evaluation to assess the effectiveness of the program in strengthening Qur'an literacy and students' emotional intelligence. A mixed methods approach with a concurrent embedded design is used, with qualitative data as the main data and quantitative data as support. The evaluation was carried out using the CIPP (Context, Input, Process, and Product) model to assess the relevance of policies, resource readiness, implementation dynamics, and overall program outcomes. The results show that the program is conceptually aligned with the needs of students and the vision of Islamic education. The implementation of the program is able to improve basic tahsin skills, worship habits, discipline, and emotional calm. However, the achievement of Qur'an literacy is not evenly distributed, especially in the aspect of fluent reading and understanding of the meaning of verses, due to differences in initial abilities and limited coaching time. The affective and spiritual aspects show stronger achievements than the cognitive aspects.
PERSPEKTIF MANAJEMEN PENDIDIKAN TERHADAP KETIMPANGAN BEBAN KERJA NON POKOK GURU SD NEGERI; DAMPAKNYA PADA KINERJA PEMBELAJARAN DAN KESEJATERAAN GURU
The non-primary workload of public primary school (SDN) teachers in Sragen district, including duties as Dapodik operators, BOS/BOSDA treasurers and asset administration officers, often disrupts teachers' focus on the learning process. This study aims to analyze the inequality in the distribution of non-primary workload of public primary school teachers and its impact on learning effectiveness and teacher welfare, from the perspective of Islamic Education Management. The research used a qualitative approach with a document study of regulations (Permendiknas 24/2008, Permendikbud 6/2021, PP 19/2017), secondary data analysis of the Education Office, and limited interviews with public primary school teachers in Sragen District. The results show that there are inequalities in the distribution of additional tasks (such as Dapodik operators and BOS treasurers). This inequality has a double negative impact: reducing teachers' focus on core learning performance and disrupting their psychological well-being. This study offers a value-based solution perspective by integrating the principles of justice (al-'adl) and responsibility (Amanah) from Islamic Education Management as the normative foundation.
PENGARUH PENGGUNAAN MEDIA PEMBELAJARAN AUDIOVISUAL TERHADAP MINAT BELAJAR PESERTA DIDIK PIANO DI HARDMAN MUSIC COURSE
Formal education aims to provide a strong foundation for students by providing knowledge, skills, and attitudes that are relevant to the development needs of individuals and society. Through education, individuals can be shaped into individuals with extensive knowledge, adequate skills, and strong character. Through the educational process, a person is equipped not only with intellectual abilities but also with the moral values, attitudes, and ethics necessary for social life. The purpose of this study is to obtain information on how the use of audiovisual learning media can enhance students' motivation in piano lessons. This media is used as a means to present piano material in a more engaging way through a combination of sound and visual elements, which helps students understand the material more clearly. To describe the process and effects of using learning media, this study employs a qualitative and descriptive methodology. The research shows that audiovisual learning media can increase students’ interest in learning, as indicated by improved attention, motivation, and active participation during the learning process. Therefore, audiovisual media can be used as an effective alternative for teaching piano and supporting the achievement of learning objectives.
IMPLEMENTASI TEKNOLOGI PEMBELAJARAN DI MADRASAH IBTIDAIYAH MUHAMMADIYAH KARANGWARU PLUPUH
This study aims to describe the implementation of learning technology at Madrasah Ibtidaiyah Muhammadiyah Karangwaru Plupuh Sragen, identify enabling and constraining factors, and interpret its impact on student engagement. A qualitative case study with a descriptive approach was employed. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with three key informants—Umi Khasanah (principal), Zuli Nurdayati (class teacher), and Sitisamlatun (class teacher)—supported by classroom observations and document review (lesson plans, digital media artifacts, and assessment evidence). Data analysis followed thematic coding, data reduction and display, and conclusion drawing with source and technique triangulation to enhance trustworthiness. The main findings indicate that technology was integrated in three domains: planning (using digital resources to design learning materials), implementation (audiovisual media, interactive quizzes, and learning communication through messaging applications), and assessment (simple platform-based formative tests and digital portfolio documentation). Most practices remain at substitution–augmentation levels, yet initial movement toward modification is evident when teachers redesign learning flows into collaborative and project-based micro-tasks. Enablers include the principal’s instructional leadership, peer-sharing culture, and parent partnership; major barriers involve limited devices, unstable internet connectivity, and varied teacher digital literacy.
STRATEGI KEPEMIMPINAN ADAPTIF DALAM MENGEMBANGKAN LINGKUNGAN BELAJAR YANG INKLUSIF DAN BERBASIS TEKNOLOGI
This study aims to analyze adaptive leadership strategies in developing an inclusive, technology-based learning environment. The method employed is a literature review (library research) by examining relevant and up-to-date journal articles, academic books, conference proceedings, and policy reports on adaptive leadership, inclusive education, and the integration of learning technologies. The data were analyzed using content analysis/thematic analysis through the stages of source selection, key information extraction, grouping of findings, and thematic synthesis. The review identifies six main themes: (1) mapping technical and adaptive challenges as a basis for intervention, (2) strengthening a collaborative culture across roles, (3) continuous professional development for meaningful technology integration, (4) establishing accessibility standards and implementing Universal Design for Learning (UDL), (5) leveraging learning data for equitable interventions, and (6) strengthening leaders’ digital literacy and change governance. The findings emphasize that adaptive leadership functions as an integrative mechanism between the agendas of digitalization and inclusion, ensuring that technology serves to enhance access, participation, and the quality of learning. This study recommends establishing “inclusive digital” collaboration structures, standardizing minimum accessibility requirements based on UDL, and implementing data-driven evaluation to support equitable learning outcomes.
ANALISIS MULTIVARIAT FAKTOR PENENTU PARTISIPASI ORANG TUA DALAM PENDIDIKAN ANAK DI KABUPATEN PURWAKARTA
Parental participation is a critical determinant of student success, yet participation levels vary significantly in industrial regions like Purwakarta. This study aims to analyze the simultaneous and partial effects of parental motivation, parent-school communication, and family environment on parental participation (academic and non-academic) using a multivariate approach. This quantitative research employed a survey method with purposive sampling of 50 parents in Purwakarta. Data were analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) based on Partial Least Squares (PLS) with SmartPLS software, which is suitable for analyzing smaller sample sizes. The multivariate analysis reveals that family environment is the most dominant factor, significantly influencing both academic participation (β=0.435, p=0.012) and non-academic participation (β=0.361, p=0.025). Parent-school communication significantly affects academic participation (β=0.302, p=0.022) but not non-academic participation (β=0.275, p=0.061). Interestingly, parental motivation alone does not have a significant effect on either academic (β=0.251, p=0.081) or non-academic participation (β=0.090, p=0.524). This study highlights the "intention-behavior gap" in an industrial society context, proving that a supportive home environment and effective communication are more critical drivers of participation than motivation alone.
THE INFLUENCE OF LEARNING CREATIVITY ON STUDENT WORK PRODUCTIVITY WITH SELF-EFFICACY AS A MODERATING VARIABLE
This study aims to analyze the effect of learning creativity on students’ work productivity and examine the moderating role of self-efficacy. The research background highlights increasing demands in both academic and professional environments, which require students to possess not only creativity but also strong self-belief to maintain optimal performance while balancing study and work responsibilities. The study employed a survey method with purposive sampling, involving 100 student workers from various universities. Data were analyzed using Partial Least Square–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) via SmartPLS 4. The findings reveal that self-efficacy has a significant and strong effect on students’ work productivity. In contrast, learning creativity shows no significant effect on work productivity, and self-efficacy does not moderate the relationship between learning creativity and work productivity.

Implementasi Supervisi Akademik Berbasis Refleksi: Studi Kualitatif terhadap Praktik dan Persepsi Guru di SMK
Supervisi akademik merupakan salah satu instrumen penting dalam manajemen pendidikan yang berperan dalam peningkatan mutu pembelajaran melalui pembinaan profesional guru. Namun demikian, pelaksanaannya di sekolah masih sering berfokus pada aspek evaluatif dan administratif, sehingga kurang memberikan ruang bagi guru untuk melakukan refleksi profesional secara mendalam terhadap praktik pembelajaran. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji implementasi supervisi akademik berbasis refleksi serta memahami bagaimana guru memersepsikan dan memaknai proses supervisi tersebut dalam konteks pengembangan profesional. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan desain studi kasus di SMK Negeri 1 Blado sebagai satuan pendidikan menengah kejuruan. Data dikumpulkan melalui wawancara mendalam, observasi pembelajaran, dan studi dokumentasi, kemudian dianalisis secara tematik. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa supervisi akademik berbasis refleksi dilaksanakan melalui tahapan perencanaan, observasi kelas, dialog pascaobservasi, dan tindak lanjut yang menekankan komunikasi profesional serta refleksi bersama antara kepala sekolah dan guru. Guru memersepsikan supervisi akademik sebagai proses pembelajaran profesional yang bersifat dialogis, mendukung kesadaran reflektif, dan membantu mereka memahami praktik pembelajaran secara lebih kritis dan kontekstual. Kebaruan penelitian ini terletak pada penegasan supervisi akademik sebagai ruang pembinaan reflektif dalam manajemen pendidikan, yang dimaknai secara positif oleh guru sebagai sarana pengembangan profesional berkelanjutan, bukan semata-mata sebagai mekanisme pengendalian mutu pembelajaran.

DINAMIKA DAN TANTANGAN PANCASILA DALAM MASYARAKAT GLOBAL DAN DUNIA INTERNASIONAL
The phenomenon of globalization, characterized by the rapid flow of ideologies, cultures, information, and technologies across national boundaries, presents significant challenges to the preservation and actualization of Pancasila values in the context of international society.

The results of the study indicate several important aspects, namely Gender Leadership in the Perspective of Islamic Education which emphasizes the compatibility of Islamic values with the practice of women's leadership; Challenges of Women's Leadership in a Gender Context which reflect cultural barriers and social stereotypes; and Support and Legitimacy of Ibu Nurul's Leadership which grows through concrete performance, collective participation, and effective communication with various elements of the madrasah. This study contributes to theoretical, practical, and policy implications. Theoretically, this study enriches the study of gender and leadership in Islamic education, especially in the context of elementary madrasahs. Practically, the research findings can serve as a reference for other madrasah principals in developing leadership patterns that are inclusive, participatory, and responsive to the needs of the school community. Meanwhile, from a policy perspective, this research provides input for policymakers to further open up leadership opportunities for women in Islamic educational institutions, while simultaneously reducing existing structural and cultural barriers. Thus, this research not only describes a phenomenon but also provides new insights into the issue of gender equality in Islamic educational leadership at MI Mirqotul Ulum, relevant for development in broader research settings.
