The Influence of Self-Efficacy and Teacher Academic Support on Students’ Time Management in Extracurricular Activities at Islamic Boarding Schools

2025-08-30T21:06:11+00:00

This study aims to determine the effect of self-efficacy and teacher academic support on students’ time management skills in extracurricular activities. In the context of modern education, student involvement in non-academic activities demands balanced time management skills. This study used a quantitative approach with an ex post facto design. The research sample amounted to 60 extracurricular coach teachers and subject teachers selected through the total sampling technique. Data were collected using a Likert scale questionnaire on three main variables: self-efficacy, teacher academic support, and student time management. Validity was tested through item total correlation, and reliability was tested with Cronbach’s Alpha. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS version 26 through multiple linear regression tests. The results showed that teacher self-efficacy had a significant effect on students’ time management ability, while teacher academic support did not show a significant effect, partially. However, simultaneously, both variables contributed 47.6% to time management. This finding emphasizes the importance of the teacher’s role in guiding students to manage time in a balanced manner between academic and extracurricular activities. Hopefully, this study can serve as a foundation for developing more responsive teaching strategies and teacher guidance, enabling students to manage their time effectively and achieve a balanced performance between academic and extracurricular activities, while also providing recommendations for schools to enhance professional development programs for teachers with a focus on time management guidance strategies

Parenting Patterns in the Perspective of Hadith: A Literature Review

2025-08-31T05:42:52+00:00

This article aims to describe the concept and urgency of child-rearing according to the Prophet Muhammad saw based on authentic hadiths, as well as to explain its contribution to shaping children's character from an Islamic educational perspective. This study employs a qualitative approach using library research methods. Primary sources include authoritative hadith collections such as Sahih al-Bukhari, Sahih Muslim, Sunan Abu Dawud, Sunan at-Tirmidzi, and Musnad Ahmad. Secondary sources include hadith commentaries and contemporary Islamic educational literature. Data collection techniques were conducted through documentary studies, then analysed using content and thematic analysis approaches. Data validity was maintained through source triangulation and hadith quality checks using the takhrij method. The research findings indicate that the concept of the Prophet Muhammad's parenting style includes compassion, exemplary behaviour (uswah hasanah), respect for the child's existence, instilling manners, and early spiritual education. This pattern is not only normative but also practical and contextual for application in child-rearing in the modern era, which is filled with moral and social challenges. These findings contribute theoretically to the development of Islamic education science and practically to Muslim families in establishing sunnah-based parenting patterns.

Asset-Based Community Development in Vocational Schools Through Appreciative Inquiry (AI) and the BAGJA Model

2025-08-31T05:35:14+00:00

This study examines the implementation of asset-based community development at SMK 2 LPPM RI Majalaya using qualitative methods through observation, interviews, and documentation. The findings reveal a significant gap between the availability of assets, including physical assets (workshops, laboratories), movable assets, and human assets (educators and students), and their collective mobilisation, attributed to the absence of a collaborative framework or "social contract" institutionalised within the school environment. To address this, the study integrated modern community development models such as Appreciative Inquiry and the BAGJA framework with local wisdom through the educational philosophy "Ing Ngarso Sung Tulodo, Ing Madyo Mangun Karsa, Tut Wuri Handayani," resulting in culturally relevant and acceptable adaptations for the local community. The limitations of this study lie in its focus on a single case study and the use of qualitative methods alone, making it difficult to generalise the findings broadly. Therefore, further research with a more diverse scope and a mixed-methods approach is recommended to provide a more effective policy foundation for asset-based community development in vocational high schools

Deep Learning: Adaptive Solutions Towards Inclusive 21st Century Education

2025-10-07T11:44:46+00:00

The demands of 21st-century education require a paradigm shift in learning that goes beyond the mere transfer of knowledge toward the development of critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, and communication skills. At the same time, the education system is expected to embody the principle of inclusivity to ensure that every learner has equal access to meaningful learning opportunities. This article aims to analyze the relevance and potential of deep learning pedagogy as an adaptive approach to support inclusive education in the 21st century. The study employed a library research method by reviewing academic literature, including books, reputable journal articles, and both national and international policy documents. The findings indicate that deep learning pedagogy emphasizes conceptual understanding, higher-order thinking, and active student participation, aligning with the demands of 21st-century competencies. Moreover, integrating deep learning with inclusivity principles allows diverse learners, including those with special needs, to engage actively through project-based, collaborative, and digital learning strategies. Nevertheless, the implementation in Indonesia faces several challenges, such as teachers’ readiness, limited facilities, and the dominance of teacher-centered practices. The article concludes that deep learning pedagogy offers a transformative solution for enhancing both quality and equity in education, while further empirical research is required to test its implementation in various educational contexts.

The Transformation of Moral Education Through Strategic Management Based on Islamic Values

2025-08-31T05:38:14+00:00

This study examines the strategies and implementation of Islamic character education at Madrasah Aliyah Asshidiqiyah Karawang, with a focus on integrating Islamic values into the curriculum, teaching methods, and school culture. Using a qualitative case study approach, data were collected through observations, in-depth interviews with teachers and students, and document analysis. The findings reveal a holistic approach that integrates Islamic values into both academic and extracurricular activities, such as project-based learning, congregational prayers, dhikr (remembrance), and social service programs. Teachers serve as primary role models, supported by parental involvement and school policies. Despite challenges like limited teacher training, external environmental influences, and less-than-optimal parental participation, the character education program significantly improved students’ discipline, honesty, and social responsibility. The study concludes that Islamic character education is effective when implemented comprehensively and collaboratively among schools, teachers, and families. It recommends enhancing teacher training, strengthening community partnerships, and conducting ongoing evaluations to ensure the program’s sustainability and success.

The Role of Parents in Supporting the Growth and Mental Readiness of the Golden Generation 2045

2025-10-07T22:02:01+00:00

This study aims to understand how the role of parents contributes to supporting the growth and mental readiness of children as part of efforts to shape the golden generation of 2045, particularly in Sipogu Village, Arse District. The research was conducted using a descriptive qualitative approach, employing in-depth interviews and observations with parents as well as local community leaders. The results of the study indicate that the role of parents is very important in creating an environment that supports the physical, emotional, and intellectual development of children. Forms of support are reflected in the attention given, moral guidance, discipline formation, as well as involvement in both formal and non-formal education. However, there are several challenges still faced, such as parents' limited knowledge about proper parenting patterns and minimal access to information. Therefore, collaboration between families, schools, and the government is a key factor in strengthening the role of parents to prepare children who are resilient, intelligent, and competitive in order to realize the Golden Indonesia 2045.

Family Involvement in Strengthening Character Education: Integrating Sundanese Values and the Merdeka Curriculum

2025-08-31T05:40:20+00:00

This study aims to analyze family involvement in strengthening character education through the integration of Sundanese cultural values within the implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum at SDN 2 Cibodas, Cimahi City. Using a descriptive qualitative approach and an intrinsic case study design, the research involved four months of participant observation, in-depth interviews with 15 parents, 6 teachers, and 10 students, as well as document analysis from school and community sources. The findings reveal that family involvement in character education remains limited due to economic constraints—41.2% of parents earn IDR 1–2 million per month—and long working hours, resulting in a 34% rate of student indiscipline. Sundanese values such as silih asih, silih asah, and silih asuh serve as moral anchors but have declined by 40% due to digital media exposure. The integration of the Merdeka Curriculum through the Pancasila Student Profile Strengthening Project offers an opportunity to revitalize local wisdom via a hybrid collaboration model between families and schools. Theoretically, this study extends Bronfenbrenner’s Ecological Theory by incorporating digital literacy and school infrastructure as mediating variables, while practically proposing a local-culture-based family–school synergy model to reinforce students’ character development in urban settings

Affiliate Business in the Digital Era: A Normative Analysis of Its Legal Status in Islamic Economic Law

2025-10-01T05:36:14+00:00

The rapid development of information and communication technology has created significant changes in the global economy, particularly in digital trade systems known as e-commerce. One of the latest innovations in this field is affiliate marketing, a model that allows third parties to earn commissions through online sales promotions. This study aims to analyze the legal status of affiliate business practices from the perspective of Islamic law. Using a normative juridical or library research method, the study examines primary and secondary legal materials related to contract law and Islamic economic principles. The findings reveal that affiliate business transactions are permissible (mubah) in Islam as long as they comply with the principles of justice, transparency, and the avoidance of prohibited elements such as riba, gharar, and maysir. Conceptually, affiliate marketing corresponds to the contract of wakalah bil ujrah, which involves an agency agreement with compensation for services rendered. Therefore, affiliate marketing can be categorized as a lawful business model in Islamic economic law, provided that its implementation adheres to sharia principles and ethical standards in digital transactions.

The Role of Parenting Styles in Shaping Adolescents’ Altruistic Attitudes

2025-10-10T09:04:03+00:00

This study aims to determine the role of parenting styles on adolescent altruism. Altruism, defined as helping others without expecting anything in return, is an important aspect of adolescent social and moral development. This study involved three parents and three adolescents aged 16-17 years in Pahlawan Village, Medan Perjuangan District. The research method used was descriptive qualitative. Data were collected through interviews that measured parenting styles (authoritarian, democratic, and permissive) and levels of adolescent altruism. The results showed that democratic parenting had a significant and positive relationship with adolescents' altruistic attitudes. Adolescents raised in three democratic parenting styles tended to have higher altruistic attitudes. Conversely, authoritarian and permissive parenting did not show a statistically significant relationship with altruistic attitudes. This study concludes that parenting styles that emphasize discussion, emotional warmth, and the giving of responsibility (democratic) play an important role in shaping caring and helpful personalities. These findings have practical implications for parents and educators to focus more on approaches that promote empathy and cooperation in educating children

The Influence of Literacy Programs and the Availability of Learning Resources on Students' Literacy Abilities Through Student Involvement

2025-10-10T22:39:17+00:00

The literacy skills of students in Indonesia still face challenges despite the increase in PISA rankings, because literacy programs are not yet fully effective, and the limitations of varied learning resources. The purpose of this research is to analyze the influence of literacy programs and the availability of learning resources on students' literacy skills, as well as to examine the role of student involvement as a mediator in these relationships. The research method uses a quantitative approach with an explanatory-correlational design through the analysis of Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) using a sample of 173 grade XI students of SMAN 1 Mejayan who were selected by simple random sampling and data collection through a Likert scale questionnaire. The results of the study showed that literacy programs, the availability of learning resources, and student involvement had a positive and significant effect on literacy skills, but student involvement was not proven to be significant as a mediator. These findings confirm that improving literacy can be achieved through literacy programs that are integrated into learning and the provision of varied learning resources, both print and digital, with recommendations for schools and teachers to design more flexible and contextual literacy strategies. The novelty of this research lies in a conceptual model that tests student involvement as a mediating variable, thus providing a new picture of the implementation of literacy strategies in secondary schools in Indonesia

The Implications of Early Marriage on Child Development: A Review of Islamic Law

2025-10-01T05:37:27+00:00

Early marriage remains a widespread practice in Indonesia, particularly in Kalipuro District, Banyuwangi, driven by economic factors, culture, and diverse religious interpretations. This study aims to analyze early marriage from the perspective of Islamic law and state law, and evaluate its impact on the physical, psychological, and social development of children. The research employs a normative legal method with conceptual and case approaches, analyzing primary sources including the Quran, hadith, scholarly consensus, fatwas from Islamic institutions, and Indonesian legislation through library research. The findings reveal that Islamic law does not explicitly stipulate a minimum marriageable age but emphasizes physical, emotional, and mental readiness, while state law, through Law No. 16 of 2019, establishes a minimum age of 19 years for both parties. Early marriage in Kalipuro occurs due to economic limitations, promiscuity, and limited knowledge, resulting in financial and emotional neglect of children, reproductive health problems, educational barriers, and suboptimal parenting patterns. The implementation of state law faces challenges in communities that still view early marriage as a solution to social problems, necessitating intensive public education and strict supervision to protect children's rights and the welfare of future generations.

Prophetic Ethics In Hadith Tolerance As The Moral Foundation Of Muslims In Digital Interactions

2025-10-10T10:00:00+00:00

This study explores Prophetic Ethics in Hadith Tolerance as the moral foundation for Muslims’ digital interactions, highlighting the relevance of prophetic moral values in shaping ethical online behavior. In an era characterized by rapid communication and moral fragmentation, the Prophet Muhammad’s teachings, embodied in the hadiths of rahmah (compassion), tasamuh (tolerance), hikmah (wisdom), and musyawarah (deliberation), offer a timeless ethical framework for guiding digital civility. Using a qualitative-descriptive approach through library-based content analysis, this research examines canonical hadith compilations (Sahih al-Bukhari, Sahih Muslim, Sunan Abu Dawud, Jami’ al-Tirmidhi, and Musnad Ahmad) and relevant classical commentaries to derive thematic moral categories and contextualize them within the ethics of digital communication. The findings reveal that the Prophet’s ethical model integrates emotional, intellectual, and social dimensions of morality: rahmah promotes digital empathy, tasamuh nurtures respect for diversity, hikmah cultivates reflective and responsible communication, and musyawarah encourages collaborative dialogue and consensus-building in digital spaces. Together, these principles form the “Prophetic Digital Ethics Framework,” an integrative moral paradigm that transforms online engagement into an arena of mercy, respect, and justice. This study contributes theoretically to Islamic moral scholarship by recontextualizing hadith ethics in digital life and practically by offering ethical guidance for fostering digital civility among Muslims in the contemporary era.

The Influence of Self-Potential and School Environment on Students' Career Development through the Double Track Program

2025-10-10T23:58:02+00:00

This study focuses on the career development of students at the senior secondary education level. The purpose of this research is to analyze the influence of self-potential and the school environment on students’ career development through the mediating role of the Double Track Program at SMAN Pilangkenceng. This study employs a quantitative approach using the Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) method. Data were collected through questionnaires from 92 students participating in the Double Track Program. The study hypothesizes that self-potential and the school environment have a significant influence on career development, both directly and through the mediating program. The findings indicate that the school environment has a positive and significant effect on students’ career development, both directly and through the Double Track Program, while self-potential shows no significant effect. This research contributes to the field of educational management by highlighting the effectiveness of the Double Track Program as a vocational innovation linking the educational environment with career readiness. The results emphasize the importance of strengthening school support and optimizing program implementation to enhance students’ employability and future career success.

Contextual Hermeneutics of Beauty Privilege in Hadith through Gadamer’s Lens

2025-09-18T11:26:36+00:00

This article aims to interpret the hadith, “Allah swt. does not look at your appearance or your wealth, but rather at your heart and your deeds,” through Hans-Georg Gadamer’s philosophical hermeneutic approach. This approach emphasizes the importance of dialogue between the historical context of the hadith (the horizon of the text) and the social reality of modern readers (the horizon of the reader) as a dynamic process of understanding. This study employs a qualitative library-based method with a descriptive-hermeneutic analysis technique. The hadith is examined within its historical and social context, then brought into dialogue with the contemporary phenomenon of beauty privilege in the digital era. The results show that the message of the hadith remains relevant in critiquing the visual and materialistic culture that values individuals based on physical appearance and economic status. The deeper meaning of the hadith affirms that human worth is determined by sincerity of heart and righteous deeds, not by appearance or wealth. Gadamer’s hermeneutical approach enables this hadith to remain alive, relevant, and transformative within modern socio-religious discourse.

From Fear to Fun: Exploring the Experience of Edutainment-Based Arabic Language Learning at Islamic Universities

2025-09-17T11:09:37+00:00

This study aims to explore students' views on the integration of edutainment in Arabic language learning at Islamic colleges, specifically at UIN Walisongo Semarang. Using a qualitative approach, this study collected data through in-depth interviews, questionnaires, and observations, and applied triangulation to ensure the validity of the findings. Data analysis followed the Miles and Huberman model—covering reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing—to obtain a systematic understanding of student perceptions. Findings indicate that edutainment is implemented through three main strategies: interactive digital media, Islamic-context role-play, and the integration of arts such as songs and calligraphy. This approach successfully increased students' interest, confidence, and affection for Arabic, while reducing learning anxiety and creating an inclusive and enjoyable classroom atmosphere. The majority of students responded positively because this method was considered to facilitate understanding and reduce boredom, although some provided critical feedback to ensure that academic aspects were maintained, while a minority were sceptical about its effectiveness in mastering advanced grammar. The main challenges include resistance to a learning style that is considered too relaxed and technical constraints in the use of digital applications. The success of edutainment, therefore, depends heavily on balanced learning design, lecturer responsiveness, and adequate technological infrastructure support.

Muhammadiyah’s Concept Of Ijtihad On Hadith: A Case Study Of Friday Prayers For Women In The Tarjih Decision

2025-09-27T13:07:39+00:00

This research is based on several problems, including women often being the subject of debate in aspects of worship. Although the Qur'an places men and women in equal positions and opportunities, several hadiths in their words seem to give women a lower position than men. One of the focuses of this research is related to differences in views regarding the law of attending Friday prayers for women, especially in the context of Muhammadiyah fatwas. This problem is related to the basic principles in Islamic jurisprudence regarding the legal status of worship and the existence of evidence that is used as a basis for determining its permissibility or obligation. This research is a qualitative research using a library research approach whose primary data refers to the Muhammadiyah Tarjih Decision Collection as the main reference in understanding Muhammadiyah ijtihad, the hadith narrated by Sunan Abu Dawud Index Number 106 as the main object of study in determining the law of Friday prayers for women, and books of hadith (Kutubut Tis'ah). The final results obtained from this research are, first, the hadith narrated by Abu Dawud, index number 1067. If it is linked to the Muhammadiyah rules in the process of interpreting and understanding hadiths, then the above hadith is classified as rule 6, namely the mursal sahabi hadith can be used as hujjah if there is a qarinah that shows a connection. Second, the results of the interview and the findings of the principles of Muhammadiyah's openness, they view that the issue of Friday prayers for women is not obligatory as stated in the hadith in the book of Sunan Abu Dawud, index number 1067 in the Muhammadiyah fatwa that the hadith is a form of rukhsah given by Allah SWT. Third, in general, all major Islamic mass organizations in Indonesia agree that Friday prayers are not obligatory for women.

Islamic Boarding Schools’ Educational Response to Roblox Addiction Among Qur’an-Memorizing Students

2025-09-11T10:13:19+00:00

This study aims to analyze the negative impact of Roblox games on students who memorize the Qur'an and the preventive measures implemented at Al Masthuriyah Islamic Boarding School. Using a qualitative case study design and data analysis based on the Miles and Huberman model, this study identifies three levels of Roblox playing intensity: low, moderate, and high. Students with low intensity play for 30 minutes to 1 hour, 1–2 times a week, as entertainment after memorization, with Islamic content options. The moderate group plays for 1–2 hours, 3–4 times a week, for online relaxation and socialization, while maintaining a balance between worship and academics. Meanwhile, the high group plays 2–4 hours or more almost every day, disrupting memorization time, congregational prayers, and sleep. Negative impacts include decreased memorization recall due to excessive stimulation, time management issues, and exposure to content contrary to Islamic values, such as inappropriate avatars, magic, or immoral interactions. The boarding school responded with a comprehensive strategy: gadget regulations based on age and memorization performance, access restrictions limited to Saturdays and Sundays from 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM, support for teachers, and digital literacy based on Islamic values. Students are taught the dangers of addiction from a Sharia perspective, such as wastefulness and negligence. These findings provide a technology management model that can be replicated by Islamic boarding schools.

Implementing AI in Developing Teaching Modules to Support the Independent Curriculum

2025-09-28T06:55:00+00:00

The development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has had a significant impact across various fields, including education. One of its potential applications lies in the development of teaching modules aligned with the principles of the Merdeka Curriculum. This study aims to describe the implementation of AI in the process of designing and developing teaching modules at SMA Bina Insan Palu. The research employs a qualitative approach with a case study design. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and document analysis of teaching modules, and were then analyzed using data reduction, data presentation, and thematic conclusion-drawing techniques. The findings reveal that the use of AI supports teachers in creating more creative, interactive, and contextual learning materials. Moreover, AI facilitates the development of Project-Based Learning (PjBL) relevant to the Pancasila Student Profile and enables the application of varied and adaptive assessments through AI-based questions and interactive quizzes. AI also contributes to enhancing teachers' creativity in designing digital learning media while saving time in preparing teaching modules. However, teachers' limited digital literacy and the need for intensive training remain major challenges in optimizing AI implementation. The study concludes that AI serves as a pedagogical partner in the development of teaching modules, supporting rather than replacing the role of teachers. To ensure AI utilization is aligned with the goals of the Merdeka Curriculum, strategic efforts are needed in the form of improving digital literacy, providing intensive training for educators, and ensuring adequate technological infrastructure

Islamic Religious Education in the Digital Era: A Critical Analysis of Social Media Framing of Millennial Preaching

2025-09-23T07:42:33+00:00

The digital era has significantly transformed the face of Islamic da’wah, particularly in its interaction with Millennials and Gen Z in Indonesia. Social media has become a new arena for spreading religious messages, packaged in a visual, concise, and emotional manner. This study aims to analyze how the framing of Islamic da’wah on social media is constructed and perceived by the younger generation, as well as its impact on the substance of Islamic religious education. The method used is library research with a qualitative-descriptive approach, analyzed critically through framing theory (Entman, Pan & Kosicki), the theory of the mediatization of religion, and socio-religious studies in digital society. The findings indicate that social media framing tends to encourage a populist and lightweight style of da’wah, which shifts the focus of religious education from deep value cultivation to instant spiritual consumption. Meanwhile, Millennials and Gen Z respond positively to this approach as it is considered more communicative and relevant to their digital lifestyle, although it carries the risk of reducing the depth of religious understanding. This study recommends the need for a more critical, reflective, and balanced approach to da’wah—between form and substance—so that Islamic religious education continues to play its role in shaping holistic religious character amid the currents of digital globalization.

Digital Literacy and Students' Reading Interest in the Implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum

2025-09-28T07:30:03+00:00

The development of digital technology encourages schools to adjust their learning strategies, including enhancing students' digital literacy and reading interest. This study aims to analyze the implementation of digital literacy and its relation to students' reading interest in the context of the Merdeka Curriculum at SMA Bina Insan Palu. The research employed a qualitative approach with a case study design, collecting data through observation, interviews with teachers and students, and documentation of learning activities. The findings indicate that students' digital literacy levels fall into a fairly good category, yet they still require specific guidance in aspects such as source verification, proper citation, and understanding of digital ethics. Reading interest tends to increase when students are provided with interactive digital reading materials, Pancasila Student Profile (P5) projects, and authentic assessments in the form of reflections or short reviews. The main challenges faced include limited access to devices, fluctuating network quality, and a lack of curated reading materials suitable for students' proficiency levels. The discussion highlights that interventions such as tiered digital reading curation, daily reading routines, authentic assessments, and technical support (devices and internet connections) are practical strategies to improve both digital literacy and students' reading interest. The study concludes that the success of the Merdeka Curriculum implementation at SMA Bina Insan Palu is strongly determined by teachers' readiness, institutional support, and the provision of adequate digital infrastructure

2025-11-03T14:11:34+00:00

This study examines the effectiveness of Genially-based differentiated learning in enhancing students’ Arabic writing proficiency. Using a quantitative pre-test and post-test design, the research involved seventh-grade students at MTsN 4 Sidoarjo. Differentiated instruction was applied by adjusting content, process, and product based on students’ learning styles—visual, auditory, and kinesthetic—through Genially’s interactive features such as multimedia presentations, quizzes, and animations. Data were collected via observation, interviews, documentation, and writing tests, and analyzed using paired-sample t-test and N-Gain calculations. The results showed a significant improvement in writing performance, with the average score rising from 62 to 85 and an N-Gain value of 0.61 (moderate–high). Students demonstrated better paragraph organization, idea development, vocabulary use, and grammatical accuracy, along with increased motivation and confidence. The study concludes that integrating Genially into differentiated learning effectively accommodates student diversity and improves Arabic writing skills. This approach aligns with the Independent Curriculum (Kurikulum Merdeka), emphasizing adaptive, student-centered, and technology-based learning. Teachers are encouraged to optimize digital media to create engaging, personalized, and future-oriented Arabic instruction

Global Branding of Religious Education: Islamic Green Schools in Achieving the SDGs

2025-09-23T08:22:46+00:00

This study examines the Islamic Green School concept as a branding strategy for Islamic schools based on Islamic moderation and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The global environmental crisis demands that Islamic education not only focus on rituals and memorization but also instill ecological awareness as an integral part of Islamic values. Through a qualitative approach based on literature review, this research analyzes institutional branding strategies, implementation challenges, and the contribution of Islamic Green Schools to achieving the SDGs, particularly SDGs 4, 12, 13, and 15. The findings reveal that Islamic Green Schools can integrate the values of khalifah fil ardh with sustainable educational practices through three main strategies: strengthening universal Islamic values and sustainability, curriculum innovation based on ecology, and model scalability through sharia and SDG collaboration. However, implementation faces challenges, including low SDG literacy, curriculum fragmentation, limited resources, and ideological resistance. This study recommends strengthening teacher capacity, government policy support, and developing data-based monitoring systems to reinforce authentic and sustainable branding

Preventive Health and Islamic Family Values: The Role of Tetanus Toxoid Vaccine Immunization in Promoting Sakinah Families

2025-10-26T00:31:30+00:00

A harmonious family is a family that can maintain peace and is based on love (mawaddah) and affection (rahmah). One of the main purposes of marriage is to continue the lineage, maintain human dignity, and foster a quality generation. Tetanus toxoid (TT) vaccine immunization injections for prospective brides play an important role in maintaining the health of the mother and fetus from tetanus infection, which can cause disability and even death. Indirectly, tetanus toxoid vaccine immunization injections sociologically have an important correlation in forming a harmonious family. A harmonious family is not formed automatically, but is the result of various interrelated factors that are continuously maintained. The combination of religious values, psychosocial stability, health, economy, and social support greatly determines the success of forming a harmonious, loving, and compassionate family. This study uses a quantitative approach with a mixed methods method, namely a combination of numerical data analysis and qualitative exploration, in order to obtain a more comprehensive understanding of the phenomenon being studied. The main focus of this study is to examine the relationship between the implementation of TT vaccination injections and the formation of a harmonious family, accompanied by interviews and observations to explore the supporting factors that influence this correlation

Comparative Study: Effectiveness of Marketing Campaigns in Traditional and Modern Retail

2025-11-06T05:43:31+00:00

Digital transformation has changed consumer behavior in interacting and transacting with products and services, including in the retail sector. Consumers now tend to actively seek information and make purchases through digital platforms, encouraging modern retailers to adapt by utilizing social media, customer applications, and data-driven promotions. In contrast, traditional retailers still rely on conventional promotions and social proximity. This study aims to compare the effectiveness of marketing campaigns between traditional and modern retailers in Medan City. The method used was a qualitative comparative study approach. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation, then analyzed using the SWOT technique with the IFAS and EFAS matrices. The results show that modern retailers are more effective in marketing campaigns because they are able to reach a wider market, customize promotions personally, and measure results in real time. Meanwhile, traditional retailers have advantages in customer loyalty and emotional connections, but have not yet optimally utilized technology. This study emphasizes the importance of traditional retailers to gradually integrate digital technology without abandoning the power of personal interactions, while modern retailers need to continue strengthening data-driven strategies to remain competitive.

To analyze the management strategies implemented by the Cooperatives and SMEs Office of Batu Bara Regency in improving the competitiveness of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs). This study also aims to examine three main aspects of management strategies: marketing strategies, financial strategies, and human resources (HR) strategies, to determine the effectiveness of their implementation in supporting the development of MSMEs in the region. The methodology used in this study is a qualitative approach with descriptive methods. The types of evidence used in this study include primary and secondary data. Primary data were obtained through in-depth interviews and direct observation of employees of the Cooperatives and SMEs Office of Batu Bara Regency and assisted MSMEs, while secondary data came from office documents, activity reports, and literature related to MSME development policies. All data were analyzed descriptively through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions to obtain a comprehensive picture of the management strategies implemented in improving the competitiveness of MSMEs. The findings indicate that the marketing strategy focuses on digital marketing training but lacks ongoing mentoring. The financial strategy facilitates business legality and access to financing, but faces structural and literacy barriers. Human resource training improves technical skills but remains inconsistent. Overall, management strategies are not fully aligned with the needs of MSMEs.

2025-11-05T23:51:20+00:00

Sex education at the junior high school level is an important aspect in shaping the character and self-awareness of adolescents regarding the biological, psychological, and social changes they experience. This study aims to examine sex education as a shared responsibility between teachers, parents, and students by highlighting effective communication patterns in its implementation. The method used is a literature review (library research) with a qualitative descriptive approach. Data was collected through a review of various journals, academic books, and recent research reports discussing sex education collaboration in schools and families. The results of the study show that open and empathetic communication between teachers, parents, and students is a key factor in the success of sex education. Teachers act as facilitators who convey scientific knowledge and moral values contextually, while parents serve as primary educators who instill moral norms and responsibilities at home. The synergy of two-way communication between schools and families has been proven to increase students' understanding of sexuality issues and reduce risky behaviour. This study emphasises that effective sex education must be designed collaboratively, be sensitive to culture and religion, and be oriented towards the formation of healthy and responsible attitudes. The findings of this study are expected to serve as a reference for the development of adaptive and sustainable sex education communication models in formal education and family environments

2025-10-20T08:16:11+00:00

This study examines the curriculum and learning system at Curriculum and Learning System at Daarul Ilmi Integrated Islamic Boarding School West Bandung within the framework of integrated Islamic education. Situated in the field of Islamic Education and Curriculum Studies, this research aims to analyze the structure of the Kulliyatul Mu’allimin Al-Islamiyah (KMI) curriculum, its instructional methods, and their implications for the development of students’ academic, linguistic, and character competencies. The KMI model was initially developed by Pondok Modern Darussalam Gontor as a modern Islamic education system that integrates religious and general sciences. This topic is crucial as modern pesantren face challenges in harmonizing religious education, the national curriculum, and mastery of international languages. Therefore, a systematic study is needed to evaluate its effectiveness. Employing a descriptive qualitative approach, data were collected through observation, interviews, and curriculum document analysis. The findings reveal that the KMI curriculum is holistically integrated with the national education system, combining formal, non-formal, and informal learning, with Arabic and English used as primary instructional languages. Such integration simultaneously fosters academic excellence, spiritual growth, and character formation. The contribution of this study lies in presenting an adaptive and relevant model of integrated Islamic education that can serve as a reference for curriculum development in modern Indonesian pesantren

Analysis of The Effectiveness and Accuracy of A Production System Based on Demand Forecasting in Reducing Excess Stock

2025-11-09T11:17:38+00:00

This study analyzes the effectiveness and accuracy of a demand forecasting based production system to reduce excess stock at the Ayam Geprek Bu Novi culinary business on Jl. Bukit Barisan. Using a quantitative approach, the research applies time series forecasting techniques consisting of Moving Average (MA), Weighted Moving Average (WMA), and Exponential Smoothing (ES). Weekly demand data from February to May 2025 were collected and analyzed to measure prediction accuracy and to evaluate the impact on raw material efficiency. The results show that the 3 week WMA method provides the highest responsiveness to rising demand trends and produces forecasts that are closest to actual sales. In comparison, the 6 week MA method and ES with alpha 0.2 provide more stable performance when demand fluctuations are relatively low. The application of these simple Excel based forecasting models enables micro, small, and medium culinary enterprises (MSMEs) to align production more accurately with actual demand, thereby reducing overstock and improving operational efficiency. This study demonstrates that data driven decision making using easy to use forecasting tools can support MSMEs in optimizing inventory control and maintaining production sustainability. The findings offer practical insights for small fast food businesses that need adaptive inventory management solutions without complex systems or high implementation costs.

The Importance Of Learning Curriculum Management For Institutional Quality

2025-11-07T04:17:32+00:00

This study investigates the impact of curriculum management based on the POIE framework—Planning, Organizing, Implementing, and Evaluation—in improving institutional quality at MI Islamiyah Dinoyo Lamongan, a rural madrasah with various student backgrounds. Using quantitative approach was used to collect data from 38 respondents, including the principal, administrative personnel, and teachers. The measurement model results demonstrate that three dimensions of curriculum management (Planning, Organizing, Implementing, and Evaluation) meet validity standards; however, the Implementation indicator does not achieve the needed threshold, indicating inconsistencies between planned curriculum and instructional delivery. Institutional quality indicators (Leadership and Governance, Teacher Performance, Learning Outcomes, and Institutional Accreditation) have high validity, indicating their importance in measuring educational quality. Reliability tests show acceptable internal consistency for both constructs, with high Composite Reliability and AVE values indicating convergent validity. The findings show that curriculum management has a considerable impact on institutional quality, particularly in planning, organizational structure, and evaluation processes. However, the lack of execution highlights the need for greater pedagogical support. The study concludes that improving curricular implementation methods may boost overall institutional performance. This study helps to understand curriculum management in rural Islamic schools and has practical implications for increasing educational quality in similar circumstances

Parental Compassion in Family Education from the Perspective of Hadith and Its Implications for Children’s Mental Health

2025-11-10T09:38:33+00:00

This study explores the concept of compassion (al-rahmah) in family education based on prophetic hadiths and examines its contribution to childrens mental health. Using a qualitative method with a library research approach, this study analyzes primary hadith sources, classical commentaries, and contemporary psychological literature. The findings identify seven core hadiths that emphasize compassion, gentleness (rifq), physical expressions of affection, age-appropriate moral training, and responsible family leadership (kullukum rain) as fundamental elements of Islamic educational ethics. Interpretations by classical scholars such as An-Nawawi, Al-Ghazali, and Ibn Qayyim demonstrate that compassion is not only a moral virtue but also a structured educational strategy that aligns with modern mental health theories. Compassionate family practices positively influence childrens emotional security, stress regulation, empathy, self-confidence, and long-term psychological resilience. Conversely, a lack of affection increases vulnerability to anxiety, emotional dysregulation, and mental health risks in adulthood. Therefore, family education grounded in Islamic compassion serves as both a religious mandate and a strategic psychological investment to develop mentally healthy, emotionally balanced, and resilient future generations.
