PENERAPAN MODEL MALCOLM BALDRIDGE DALAM PENGUKURAN KINERJA ORGANISASI PENDIDIKAN
This research aims to comprehensively describe the application of the Malcolm Baldrige model in measuring the performance of educational organizations in Indonesia. In the era of globalization and educational transformation, educational institutions are required to implement measurable, directed, and sustainable quality management systems. The Malcolm Baldrige Excellence Framework (MBEF) provides systematic guidance through seven key categories: leadership, strategic planning, customer focus, measurement and data analysis, workforce management, operational processes, and results. This study applies a qualitative approach using a literature review method from various national academic sources, including textbooks and journals discussing the implementation of the Baldrige model in Indonesian education. The analysis reveals that the Baldrige model is effective in improving institutional performance, particularly in data-driven decision-making, strategic planning, and stakeholder satisfaction. The main challenges include limited human resources, lack of managerial training, and weak quality culture in some educational institutions. Therefore, it is crucial for educational institutions to integrate the Baldrige model into their internal quality assurance systems (SPMI) to achieve continuous and competitive quality improvement.
MANAJEMEN PROGRAM KHITAN MASSAL BERBASIS NILAI ISLAM: STUDI FENOMENOLOGI TENTANG DINAMIKA SOSIAL-BUDAYA MASYARAKAT PESISIR MALUKU
Objective: This study aims to analyze how Islamic values-based management shapes the planning and implementation of a mass circumcision program in Werinama, Maluku, while also identifying the socio-cultural determinants that influence community participation. The research employed a qualitative approach with a phenomenological design. Data were collected through participant observation throughout the entire program cycle, semi-structured interviews with committee members, religious leaders, customary leaders, and parents, as well as a review of supporting documents. Data were analyzed using reflexive thematic analysis, while trustworthiness was ensured through source and technique triangulation, audit trails, and member checking. The findings reveal that community participation was influenced by three major determinants: political trust and perceptions of program politicization (42%), social prestige that frames circumcision as a symbol of status (28%), and expectations surrounding customary rituals (22%). From a managerial perspective, the program’s strengths were reflected in stakeholder mapping, clear task distribution, multi-channel communication, and post-procedure monitoring. However, a mismatch between program design and the ceremonial expectations of some families reduced social acceptance.

TRANSFORMASI SUPERVISI SEKOLAH MELALUI NILAI-NILAI MANAJEMEN ISLAM: IMPLIKASINYA TERHADAP BUDAYA ORGANISASI DAN EFEKTIFITAS PENDIDIKAN
jective: This study explores the transformation of academic supervision through the internalization of Islamic management values and its implications for organizational culture and educational effectiveness in modern Islamic boarding schools, which stand between traditional pesantren values and contemporary educational management demands. Methods: This research employed a qualitative approach with an interpretive case study design. Data were collected through document analysis, including supervision policies, academic guidelines, evaluation instruments, supervision reports, follow-up action plans, and meeting minutes related to supervisory practices. The documents were analyzed using reflective thematic analysis to identify patterns of meaning and value dynamics shaping academic supervision at the institutional level. Results: The findings reveal four main themes: a shift from administrative compliance to institutional trust (amanah), shura as a dialogic yet negotiated supervisory practice, ‘adl as ethical justice between standardization and contextual sensitivity, and ihsan as an orientation toward sustainable quality improvement accompanied by institutional tension. Academic supervision thus emerges not merely as a technical procedure, but as a social and cultural process shaped by value negotiation, power relations, and organizational identity. Novelty: This study conceptualizes Islamic management values not only as normative leadership principles, but also as socially constructed practices embedded in supervisory documents and organizational culture.
PENGARUH PELATIHAN TERHADAP KEBERHASILAN PROGRAM SUSTAINABLE LIVELIHOOD: PERAN MEDIASI KESIAPAN BERUBAH SERTA MODERASI KARAKTER INDIVIDU DAN DUKUNGAN PEMERINTAH
Objective: This study aims to analyze the influence of training on the success of the Sustainable Livelihood program through the role of mediation of readiness to change as well as the moderation of individual character and government support in assisted communities around Gunung Palung National Park, North Kayong Regency.

Data was collected through a questionnaire to 62 respondents of community members assisted by the Sustainable Livelihood program and analyzed using the Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) method with the help of SmartPLS 4.0. Results: The results showed that training had a positive and significant effect on readiness to change, and readiness to change had a positive and significant effect on the success of the Sustainable Livelihood program. Individual character was also shown to positively moderate the relationship between readiness to change and program success, whereas government support did not show a significant moderation effect. These findings contribute to the development of conservation-based community empowerment literature by showing that the success of Sustainable Livelihood programs is not only determined by training, but also by the readiness of individuals to adopt change.

ANALISIS IMPLEMENTASI SIKLUS PPEPP DALAM PENJAMINAN MUTU PENDIDIKAN TINGGI DI INDONESIA
Quality assurance in higher education in Indonesia requires the implementation of a structured and sustainable system to ensure the achievement of institutional performance and compliance with accreditation requirements. This article aims to examine the implementation of the PPEPP cycle (Establishment, Implementation, Evaluation, Control, and Improvement) within the higher education quality assurance system, highlighting the role of each stage as an integrated and continuous quality improvement cycle. This study adopts a qualitative descriptive–analytical approach through a review of policy documents, regulations, and relevant academic literature related to quality assurance and higher education accreditation. The results indicate that the establishment of contextual and relevant standards constitutes the primary foundation for the effective implementation of the PPEPP cycle. Consistent implementation of these standards strengthens the effectiveness of the internal quality assurance system. Furthermore, evaluation and control conducted through internal quality audits serve as reflective mechanisms to ensure performance accountability, while continuous quality improvement directly supports the achievement of outcome-based accreditation. These findings demonstrate that the PPEPP cycle functions not merely as an administrative requirement, but as a strategic framework for enhancing the quality and competitiveness of higher education institutions in a sustainable manner.
BRAINROT SEBAGAI TANTANGAN MORAL GENERASI MUDA MUSLIM DI ERA DIGITAL
The rapid development of social media in the digital era has generated various new phenomena influencing the behavior of young people, one of which is the phenomenon of brainrot. This term refers to the excessive consumption of fast-paced, repetitive, and shallow entertainment content that may affect individuals’ concentration, self-control, and moral awareness. Digital platforms such as TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube continuously provide short and visually stimulating content, encouraging uncontrolled scrolling behavior that may reduce reflective thinking and interest in meaningful activities. This study aims to analyze the phenomenon of brainrot as a moral challenge for Muslim youth in the digital era. The major focus of this research is the phenomenon of brainrot in social media usage, while the minor focus examines its impact on the moral and ethical behavior of Muslim adolescents. This research employs a descriptive qualitative approach using a library research method by examining various scholarly sources, including academic journals, books, and Islamic literature, particularly the sayings of the Prophet ﷺ as a normative foundation. The findings indicate that the brainrot phenomenon has the potential to weaken moral awareness, shift time priorities, and encourage unproductive digital consumption habits. From an Islamic perspective, such conditions contradict teachings that emphasize responsibility, self-discipline, and the wise use of time.

PEMBIAYAAN SEKOLAH BERBASIS SASARAN: PERBANDINGAN BUKTI EMPIRIS DARI BELGIA (FLANDERS) DAN KOREA SELATAN
Education funding that allocates additional resources to schools with a concentration of vulnerable or low-achieving students is a common policy instrument in many countries. This article presents a systematic synthesis of two recent empirical studies evaluating the causal effects of such funding using a regression discontinuity design (RDD) approach: Badunenko et al.'s (2025) study on primary education in Flanders (Belgium) and Sohn et al.'s (2022) study on primary schools in South Korea under a centralized funding system. The theoretical review links the findings to the education production function, human capital theory, and the distinction between average and underachievement. The synthesis shows that policy design (target definition, beneficiary threshold, and use of funds) and outcome measures determine the interpretation of effectiveness: in Flanders, additional funding showed no significant impact on mathematics scores but reduced underachievement; in South Korea, an increase in funding per pupil of approximately 20 percent at the policy threshold was associated with a decrease in the proportion of below-average students in most subjects, except reading. Implications for research and policy are discussed narratively.

Objective: This study analyzes the implementation of Kaizen in building an industrial work culture in Vocational High Schools (SMK), across three dimensions: training, habituation, and the reward and punishment system. Methods: A qualitative multiple-case embedded design was employed at two purposively selected sites, namely SMKN 2 Surabaya which has implemented the T-TEP program since 2014 and SMKN 1 Mojokerto which has implemented the N-KGTS program since 2022. The research was conducted over five months, from October 2025 to February 2026. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, direct observation, and document analysis, and analyzed using the Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña interactive model through first-cycle coding (initial coding) and second-cycle coding (pattern coding), followed by within-case and cross-case analyses. Results: Findings reveal that Kaizen training is sustained through multi-layered institutionalization covering formal legality, curricular integration, budget allocation, and industry-based instructor certification. Habituation builds student work character through three synergistic pillars of environmental engineering, formal institutional structures, and daily procedural routines that progressively shift internalization from compliance toward cultural ownership. A reward and punishment system grounded in a corrective-educative philosophy, reinforced through differentiated academic and industry recognition, sustains work culture consistency beyond momentary compliance.

PENGARUH MANAJEMEN KEPEMIMPINAN KEPALA SEKOLAH TERHADAP BUDAYA KERJA GURU DALAM MENINGKATKAN MUTU PEMBELAJARAN DI SD NEGERI 1 MULYOHARJO
The current reality of education in Indonesia shows that the leadership of school principals is often more administrative than inspirational, causing teachers' work culture to tend to be monotonous and less adaptive to the demands of the Independent Curriculum. This study aims to analyze the influence of principal leadership on teacher work culture in improving the quality of learning at SD Negeri 1 Mulyoharjo, Jepara Regency. A correlational quantitative approach was used with a sample of 10 active teachers through a 5-point Likert scale questionnaire (20 items: 10 for variable X, 10 for Y). Data analysis included descriptive statistics, Pearson Product Moment correlation test, and simple linear regression. The results show that the average principal leadership score is 4.32 (high category) and the teacher work culture score is 4.65 (very high), but there is a weak negative correlation (rxy = -0.4097; p=0.2397>0.05) with an influence of 16.8% (R²=0.168; Y=71.60-0.581X). The novelty of this study lies in the finding that in schools with a mature work culture, leadership acts as a situational facilitator (Fiedler's contingency theory, 1967), not a major determinant, in contrast to Burns' transformational theory (1978), which dominates Indonesian literature. Implications: Principals need to adopt the Hersey-Blanchard delegative style for professional teachers.

The success of the program implementation is influenced by several factors, namely: (1) Internal and external communication is consistently established effectively through coordination, routine evaluation, and socialization; (2) resources are sufficient, although there are still constraints on the budget aspect so that infrastructure improvements are less than optimal; (3) the attitude of implementers shows a high commitment through support in learning, supervision, and habituation; (4) Bureaucratic structure, through a structured division of tasks and SOPs for activities, although there is no specific organizational structure.
WOMEN’S LEADERSHIP IN ISLAMIC EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS: LEADERSHIP STYLES, CHALLENGES, AND ADAPTIVE STRATEGIES OF A FEMALE MADRASAH PRINCIPAL
This study aims to analyze women’s leadership in Islamic educational institutions by examining leadership styles, challenges, and strategies employed by a female madrasah principal at MTs Negeri 4 Kota Jambi. This research adopts a qualitative approach using a case study design, with data collected through interviews, observations, and documentation. The study reflects the growing recognition of women’s roles in educational leadership, particularly within contexts that have traditionally been dominated by men. The findings reveal that the principal applies participatory, transformational, and relational leadership styles that foster collaboration, open communication, and improved teacher performance. These leadership approaches contribute to the development of a supportive and productive organizational environment. Despite these contributions, the principal faces several challenges, including gender stereotypes, socio-cultural expectations, and institutional constraints such as limited resources and administrative demands. These challenges require not only managerial skills but also adaptability in navigating complex organizational dynamics. To address these challenges, the principal employs adaptive strategies that emphasize professionalism, competence, effective communication, and value-based leadership grounded in Islamic principles. These strategies strengthen her leadership effectiveness and reinforce her legitimacy within the institution.
