The Values of Tolerance Education in Surah Al-Baqarah Verse 256 and Its Implications for Interfaith Harmony
type: item
description: The Qur'an was given to Muslims to be read and comprehended. Reading and understanding the Qur'an yields diverse understandings according to each individual's abilities. Muslims' understanding of the Qur'an will also give rise to diverse behaviors as interpretations of the Qur'an in the practice of life, both on the theological, philosophical, psychological, and cultural levels. This study aims to examine the role of the Bangkalan Regency Interfaith Harmony Forum (FKUB) in fostering values ​​of tolerance in society. The research method used is thematic interpretation with field research. The results of the study indicate that, first, the verses on interfaith harmony indicate that what God has determined regarding the essence of glory is the most appropriate, not what is fought over by many people because God is All-Knowing and All-Aware. Thus, humans should pay attention to what is ordered by the Creator of mankind, who is All-Knowing and knows them, as well as their welfare. Second, in Bangkalan Regency, verses on tolerance, or in the author's terminology, verses on interfaith harmony, have been well implemented. This is evident in the harmony of the Bangkalan community towards groups of different faiths.

Islamic Religious Education Learning Strategy
type: item
description: Islamic Religious Education (PAI) plays a strategic role in shaping students' character to become faithful, pious, and morally upright individuals. However, in practice, PAI learning still faces various challenges, such as the dominance of conventional teaching methods, low student participation, and a lack of innovation in the use of instructional strategies. This study aims to analyze effective PAI learning strategies, including approaches, models, methods, and their implementation in improving the quality of learning in the modern era. This research employs a qualitative approach using a library research method, drawing on books, scientific journals, and other relevant references. The findings indicate that effective PAI learning strategies must integrate contextual, humanistic, and spiritual approaches, and be supported by active learning models such as cooperative learning, problem-based learning, and inquiry learning. In addition, the utilization of educational technology is a crucial factor in enhancing learning effectiveness. In conclusion, the success of PAI learning is highly dependent on teachers' creativity in designing innovative, adaptive, and relevant strategies in accordance with contemporary developments

Implementasi Metode Jigsaw dalam Mengatasi Kepasifan Siswa pada Pembelajaran PAI dan Budi Pekerti
type: item
description: Islamic Religious Education (PAI) and Character Building (Budi Pekerti) learning is often teacher-centered, resulting in students being less active, lacking in confidence, and not optimally engaged. This study aims to describe how the jigsaw method is implemented to address student passivity in Islamic Religious Education (PAI) and Character Building (Budi Pekerti) learning at SMPN 235 Jakarta. This study used a qualitative approach with descriptive methods. Primary data sources were obtained from Islamic Religious Education (PAI) teachers and students at SMPN 235 Jakarta, while secondary data sources came from books, journals, school documents, and other supporting documentation. Data collection techniques and procedures were carried out through observation, interviews, and document studies. Data analysis used the Miles and Huberman model. The results of the study indicate that (1) Implementing the jigsaw method in Islamic Religious Education (PAI) and Character Building (Budi Pekerti) learning can reduce student passivity and improve the quality of learning.

The Influence of the Effectiveness of Using Electric Shuttle Buses as Transportation within the Campus Environment
type: item
description: The advancement of technology for electric vehicles has stimulated the adoption of eco-friendly transport systems across multiple fields, including universities. The rising mobility activities across campus regions frequently result in traffic jams, increased fuel usage, and environmental degradation. As a result, various academic institutions have started to introduce electric shuttle buses as a viable internal transport option to promote sustainable transportation. The purpose of this research was to evaluate how effective the use of electric shuttle buses is in enhancing transportation efficiency on campus. A quantitative methodology utilizing an associative approach was adopted. Information was gathered via surveys sent to 80 users of the electric shuttle bus service at Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia (UPI). The tools for research underwent validity and reliability assessments, while the analysis of data included tests for normality, simple linear regression, t-tests, F-tests, and the determination of the coefficient (R²) using IBM SPSS software. The findings revealed that all items in the questionnaire were both valid and reliable, with Cronbach’s Alpha scores of 0.890 for Variable X and 0.830 for Variable Y. Regression analysis showed a positive connection between the use of electric shuttle buses and the effectiveness of transportation, with an R Square figure of 0.124, indicating that the usage of electric shuttle buses accounted for 12.4% of the transportation effectiveness on the campus. The results of the F-test indicated that the regression framework was statistically significant, while the t-test showed that the independent variable did not have a considerable individual impact. In summary, electric shuttle buses can effectively aid in developing eco-friendly and sustainable transportation systems on campuses.

Touching Allah in Ahmadiyah at the Mubarak Glugur Darat I Mosque, East Medan District, Medan City
type: item
description: Tawheed occupies a fundamental position in the construction of Islamic teachings because it is the main basis for the relationship between humans, beliefs, and religious authorities, but the dynamics of the development of modern religious movements have given birth to various theological interpretations that give rise to contestation in the midst of Islamic orthodoxy, including in the Ahmadiyya community. This paper aims to analyze the construction of the concept of appreciating Allah in the Ahmadiyya understanding in the Mubarak Glugur Darat I Mosque, East Medan District, Medan City, the basis of the theological interpretation used, the manifestation of the teachings in the religious practice of the congregation, as well as the forms of theological contestation that arise in their relationship with the surrounding Muslim community. This study uses a qualitative method with phenomenological and social theology approaches. Data was obtained through participatory observation, in-depth interviews with administrators and worshippers, and documentation, then analyzed interpretively. The findings show that the Ahmadiyya monotheistic construction is built through an emphasis on the oneness of Allah which is understood normatively through the Qur'an, hadith, and the internal authority of the congregation's interpretation, with an orientation on the purification of worship, spiritual loyalty, and the moral discipline of the congregation. This pattern of interpretation shows a reinterpretation of the concept of prophethood, the authority of revelation, and the position of spiritual leaders which are the main points of difference with the mainstream of Islam. In religious practice, the congregation displays a religious pattern that is structured, exclusive in internal coaching, but adaptive in social relations. On the other hand, the theological construction presents multi-layered dynamics of legitimacy and rejection, ranging from the stigma of deviation from the faith, the re…

type: item
description: Students of the Madrasah Ibtidaiyah Teacher Education Study Program often have diverse musical backgrounds, and many of them have limited experience in playing musical instruments. The limited availability of traditional musical instruments, such as the angklung, increases the barriers to students' independent practice. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the Bina Nusantara Angklung implementation in improving the musical abilities of students in the Elementary Madrasah Teacher Education Study Program. The research approach used is quantitative research with a pre-experimental design, conducting a pretest-posttest. The participants were of students of the Madrasah Ibtidaiyah Teacher Education Study Program who took the Cultural Arts course in the odd semester of the 2025/2026 academic year. Data were collected through performance observation sheets based on three musicality indicators: pitch accuracy, rhythmic accuracy, and group harmonization. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and a paired sample t-test. The findings show that the use of the Angklung Bina Nusantara application improved students’ musicality skills. Before the course, 63% of students had low musical ability. After the course using the app, 83% of students had good or excellent musical ability. Furthermore, the app encouraged independent practice, increased self-confidence, and supported collaborative learning. These findings suggest that the Angklung Bina Nusantara app can be used as an effective digital learning tool to improve students' musical abilities while supporting the preservation of traditional music in higher education.

Reconstruction of the Paradigm of Islamic Religious Education Learning Based on the Qur'an and Hadith: An Integrative, Contextual, and Transformative Approach
type: item
description: This study aims to construct a conceptual framework for Islamic Religious Education learning based on the Qur'an and Hadith in an integrative and contextual manner, emphasizing the interconnectedness of students' cognitive, affective, and psychomotor dimensions in facing moral challenges in the contemporary era. This study uses a qualitative approach with a library research method to examine the foundations of the Qur'an and Hadith in Islamic Religious Education learning and their relevance to contemporary pedagogy. The primary data are verses of the Qur'an and Hadith, supported by relevant scientific literature. Data collection is carried out through documentation and systematic literature searches. Analysis uses content analysis with a thematic approach through the stages of reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing. Data validity is maintained through source triangulation and a hermeneutic approach to produce contextual and comprehensive meaning. The results of this study indicate that Islamic Religious Education (PAI) learning based on the Qur'an and Hadith requires an integrative, contextual, and transformative paradigm reconstruction. Pedagogical principles such as wisdom, role models, dialogue, and habituation demonstrate that Islamic teachings are not merely normative but also methodological. The integration of the cognitive, affective, and psychomotor domains emphasizes the importance of holistic personality development. Furthermore, a shift from a textual to a contextual-reflective approach is necessary for more relevant and meaningful learning. Thus, Islamic Religious Education (PAI) has the potential to become an adaptive, humanistic educational model capable of shaping students' character holistically and sustainably.

Improving Learning Outcomes of Pancasila Education Using Cooperative Learning in SMPN 4 Students of Probolinggo City
type: item
description: Pancasila and Citizenship Education (PPKn) plays an important role in shaping character, understanding of national values, and students' awareness of democracy. However, the learning outcomes of PPKn at SMPN 4 Probolinggo City still show low achievements, with many students not yet reaching the Minimum Completeness Criteria (KKM). This research aims to improve PPKn learning outcomes through the application of the Cooperative Active Learning (CAL) model. The research method uses a descriptive quantitative approach by collecting data through observation, questionnaires, and documentation in grade VIII students. The CAL model emphasizes cooperative learning activities in small groups through group discussions, problem-solving, and evaluations so that students play an active role both cognitively and socially. The results of the data analysis showed that there was an increase in student learning outcomes after the implementation of the CAL model compared to before the implementation, both in terms of material understanding and social skills. In addition, students are more motivated, actively discuss, and able to apply PPKn material in the context of daily life. Thus, the Cooperative Active Learning model has proven to be effective in improving PPKn learning outcomes while fostering collaboration skills, individual responsibility, and active participation of students. This research is expected to be a practical reference for teachers in choosing innovative learning strategies to improve the quality of PPKn education.

Implementation of Problem-Based Learning with a Deep Learning Approach to Improve Elementary Students’ Critical Thinking Skills
type: item
description: This study is situated within the context of the increasing need to develop students’ critical thinking skills as part of 21st-century competencies, particularly in elementary education where meaningful and active learning is essential. The purpose of this study is to examine the effectiveness of implementing Problem-Based Learning (PBL) integrated with a Deep Learning approach in improving students’ critical thinking skills in IPAS (Integrated Natural and Social Sciences) learning. This study employed a quantitative approach using Classroom Action Research (CAR), conducted in two cycles consisting of planning, action, observation, and reflection stages. The participants were fourth-grade students of SDN 1 Blang Mangat. Data were collected through observation and written tests based on critical thinking indicators, including interpretation, analysis, evaluation, inference, explanation, and self-regulation, and analyzed using descriptive quantitative techniques. The results showed a significant improvement in students’ critical thinking skills, as indicated by the increase in learning mastery from 60% in Cycle I to 85% in Cycle II. In addition, students demonstrated higher engagement, active participation in discussions, and improved ability to analyze and solve contextual problems. These findings suggest that the integration of PBL with a Deep Learning approach not only enhances students’ critical thinking skills but also promotes meaningful and student-centered learning. Therefore, this approach can be considered an effective instructional strategy for improving the quality of learning in elementary schools, particularly in fostering higher-order thinking skills.

Digital Ethnoscience: AR/VR Media Shaping Chemistry Learning in Indonesia
type: item
description: Chemistry learning still faces challenges due to the abstract nature of its concepts, particularly at the submicroscopic level, as well as the limited connection between subject matter and students’ everyday life contexts. Augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR), on the other hand, offer interactive visualizations that can help students understand chemical concepts more concretely, while ethnoscience provides cultural context and local wisdom that make learning more meaningful. This article aims to analyze the trends, characteristics, and future directions of ethnoscience‑based AR/VR media in chemistry learning in Indonesia through a systematic literature review. The findings indicate that AR is more widely used than VR, especially for topics that require spatial visualization such as atomic structure, chemical bonding, molecular shapes, and virtual laboratories. Research on ethnoscience in chemistry education has also grown rapidly, particularly in improving chemical literacy and promoting contextual learning. However, the direct integration of ethnoscience‑based AR/VR remains limited. These findings highlight that the future development of chemistry learning media needs to balance technological aspects, conceptual accuracy, cultural relevance, and readiness for classroom implementation.

Implementation of the Four Pillars of Nationality in the Formation of the Character of Students
type: item
description: Character education is a strategic issue in the development of the Indonesian nation amidst the currents of globalization, the development of digital technology, and increasingly complex social changes. This study aims to describe the implementation of the Four National Pillars in shaping students' character, analyze the strategies for internalizing national values, and identify the supporting and inhibiting factors in their implementation at Pondok Pesantren Hidayatul Mubtadiin Sidoharjo Jati Agung South Lampung in 2025. This study employed a qualitative approach with a field research design. Data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The research informants consisted of the Islamic boarding school leaders, Islamic teachers, student organization administrators, and students. Data analysis used the Miles and Huberman interactive model, including data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing, while data validity was ensured through source, technique, and time triangulation. The results showed that the implementation of the Four National Pillars was carried out through learning activities, habituation, role modeling, student organizations, social activities, and daily pesantren culture, which successfully formed religious, disciplined, tolerant, responsible, patriotic, and unity-oriented characters among students.

Management of Educational Facilities and Infrastructure: Efforts to Optimize the Learning Process at MA Nurul Fattah Lampung
type: item
description: This research is motivated by the problem of the gap between infrastructure standard regulation and managerial practices in the field. At MA Nurul Fattah Lampung, facility management is still reactive and the inventory has not been digitized, so it often creates administrative obstacles that have the potential to reduce the quality of learning. The main objective of this research is to evaluate the practice of facilities and infrastructure governance in order to realize the optimization of a quality learning process. The method used was qualitative descriptive, with data collection through observation, in-depth interviews with seven key informants, and documentation studies. The results of the study found that empirically, well-maintained physical infrastructure transforms into a "living catalyst" that successfully increases teacher motivation and triggers pedagogical innovation in the classroom. However, the managerial implementation is still fragmented and the absence of standard Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) often delays the achievement of curriculum targets. As a concrete recommendation, madrassas must immediately formulate and implement SOPs for infrastructure governance that are structured, proactive, and digitalized. This step is essential to prevent asset degradation, minimize inefficiencies, and ensure the sustainability of institutional excellence.

Morals, Adab, and Morale in the Context Education Islam Contemporary
type: item
description: The crisis of morals and manners that hit the young generation of Muslims in the digital era is the main background of this research. The moral degradation that is seen through bullying behavior, the weakening of social ethics, and the loss of respect for teachers show the need to strengthen the concept of character in Islamic education. This research aims to examine in depth the concepts of morals, manners, and morals in the context of contemporary Islamic education and explore their implications for the formation of an ethical and characterful learning environment. The research uses a qualitative approach with a library research method which is strengthened by normative-philosophical analysis of the sources of the Qur'an, Hadith, as well as the thought of classical and contemporary scholars such as Al-Ghazali, Ibn Miskawaih, and Syed Muhammad Naquib Al-Attas.

The concept of ta'dib Al-Attas has proven to be the most comprehensive framework of Islamic education because it integrates the formation of knowledge, character, and manners in an integrated manner. Its implementation through a morality-based curriculum, teacher examples, and the integration of Islamic values in learning have proven to be effective in forming a generation of Muslims with integrity. It is concluded that the revitalization of adab values in Islamic education is a strategic imperative to answer the challenges of globalization and moral crises. Empirically advanced research in various Islamic educational institutions is highly recommended.

Theoretical Review: Understanding Test Reliability in Learning
type: item
description: Evaluation is a crucial instrument in the Independent Curriculum instructional cycle for measuring the achievement of learning objectives and providing pedagogical feedback. However, in practice, the provision of valid and consistent evaluation tools still faces challenges, characterized by fluctuations in test scores due to weak control over measurement error. This article aims to examine in depth the basic concept of reliability, visualize its operation, and reconstruct techniques for estimating test instrument reliability coefficients. The research method used is library research, analyzing classic and contemporary literature in the fields of educational evaluation and psychometrics using a descriptive-qualitative approach. The results of the discussion indicate that reliability reflects the level of consistency, dependability, and stability of measurement results, which can be estimated through three main approaches: stability (test-retest), equivalence (parallel forms), and internal consistency (such as Split-Half, KR-20/21, and Cronbach's Alpha). Through simulation of the Spearman-Brown (Split-Half) formula calculation on a multiple-choice test, a reliability coefficient of 0.79 was obtained. Based on Guilford's criteria, this value is included in the high category and exceeds the minimum limit of feasibility for learning evaluation instruments (0.70), so the instrument is highly reliable.

Critical AI Literacy in Arabic Language Education: Rethinking Teacher Roles, Ethics, and Curriculum in the Age of Generative AI
type: item
description: This study examines the growing role of generative artificial intelligence (AI) in Arabic language education and highlights the increasing need for critical AI literacy among learners and teachers. While AI tools offer opportunities to support grammar learning, vocabulary development, writing practice, and independent learning, concerns remain regarding accuracy, overreliance, academic integrity, and the decline of critical thinking. The study aims to explore the need for critical AI literacy in Arabic language learning, examine the changing role of teachers, identify institutional and ethical challenges, and propose a conceptual framework for future practice and research. A Narrative Literature Review (NLR) approach was employed to synthesize and critically interpret relevant studies. Literature was collected from Scopus and Google Scholar, resulting in 26 primary studies that were analyzed through thematic synthesis. The review identified six major themes: critical AI literacy as a pedagogical necessity, the repositioning of teachers, infrastructure and policy challenges, academic ethics and integrity, teacher professional development and AI-responsive curriculum design, and the development of a critical AI literacy framework. Based on these findings, the study proposes a preliminary framework consisting of evaluative linguistic skills, awareness of AI limitations, human–AI collaboration, the use of morphology-aware and adaptive AI tools, and the integration of digital technologies with sound pedagogical practices. The study concludes that effective AI integration in Arabic language education requires critical engagement, informed human judgment, teacher preparedness, and context-sensitive educational policies.

A Completely Randomized Design (CRD) was applied with five treatments: P0 (control), P1 (5% M. anisopliae suspension), P2 (10%), P3 (15%), and P4 (20%). Each treatment was replicated four times, resulting in 20 experimental units. Data were analyzed using analysis of variance (ANOVA) with Minitab version 12.0. Duncan’s multiple range test was conducted for post hoc analysis, while LC50 and LT50 values were determined using probit analysis. The results showed that M. anisopliae suspension was effective in increasing the mortality of Brontispa sp. imago. The most effective concentration was 15%. The LC50 value was observed at a concentration of 5%. The LT50 values indicated that 50% mortality occurred on day 12 at concentrations of 5% and 10%, while at concentrations of 15% and 20%, it occurred faster, on day 9.

Analysis of the Classification of Environmental Conditions of Chili Plants into Healthy and Unhealthy Categories Using the Decision Tree Algorithm
type: item
description: Changes in various environmental parameters during the cultivation process can have an impact on plant development and have the potential to reduce the quality of the results obtained. Therefore, a method is needed that is able to identify plant conditions quickly, objectively, and accurately. This study aims to build a classification model of chili plant conditions using the Decision Tree J48 algorithm by utilizing environmental parameter data and soil nutrients as the basis for determining healthy and unhealthy plant categories. This research method uses a quantitative approach with data mining techniques on a public dataset consisting of 2,200 datasets. The variables analyzed included nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K), temperature, humidity, soil pH (ph), and rainfall. The process of forming and testing the model was carried out using the WEKA application with the 10-fold cross validation technique. The results showed that moisture was the most dominant attribute in the formation of decision trees, followed by rainfall, temperature, and soil pH as supporting attributes. The resulting model obtained an accuracy rate of 99.5909%, a Kappa Statistic value of 0.989, a Mean Absolute Error (MAE) of 0.0042, and a Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE) of 0.064. These values indicate that the model has an excellent degree of conformity with a relatively low rate of prediction error. Based on these results, the Decision Tree J48 algorithm has proven to be effective in classifying the condition of chili plants based on environmental parameters and has the potential to be applied as the basis for the development of a decision support system to help the process of monitoring plant conditions more quickly, objectively, and accurately.

Indonesian Language Interference in the Kaili Language of the Rai Dialect in Sipeso, Sindue Tobata District, Donggala Regency
type: item
description: Indonesia is recognized as one of the most linguistically diverse countries in the world, with hundreds of regional languages spoken across its archipelago. This study aims to describe the forms of Indonesian language interference in the Rai dialect of the Kaili language used in daily community communication. This research employed a descriptive qualitative method. The data were collected through observation, recording, and note-taking techniques from speakers of the Rai dialect of the Kaili language. The data were analyzed by identifying, classifying, and describing the forms of interference found in the utterances. The results revealed four forms of interference, namely lexical, morphological, syntactic, and phonological interference. Lexical interference was indicated by the inclusion of Indonesian vocabulary in Rai dialect utterances. Morphological interference appeared in the use of word-formation elements influenced by Indonesian. Syntactic interference was reflected in sentence structures influenced by Indonesian patterns, while phonological interference appeared in sound changes in the speakers' utterances. The findings indicate that the simultaneous use of two languages in daily communication contributes to the occurrence of Indonesian language interference in the Rai dialect of the Kaili language.

Analysis of Implicatures in TikTok User Interactions: A Pragmatic Study of Comments on the Mamanya Kamari Account
type: item
description: The development of technology in this digital era has made communication more complex and dynamic. This study aims to describe the types and meanings of implications in TikTok user interactions on Mamanya Kamari's account based on a pragmatic study. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method with data in the form of TikTok user comments that contain implications. The data collection technique uses observation, documentation and recording techniques, namely by capturing the screen of the words that are the source of the data, carefully recording the relevant words or sentences from the existing data source. Data analysis techniques use data collection models, data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawn. The results of the study showed that 20 implication data were found consisting of 10 conventional implications and 10 conversational implications. Conventional implication is characterized by the use of certain words such as but, but, though, and even those that directly contain additional meanings in speech. Meanwhile, the implications of the conversation arise based on the context of the situation, the intention of the speaker, and the mutual understanding between the speaker and the reader. The meaning of the implications found includes praise, humor, sarcasm, criticism, and emotional expression. In addition, the use of emojis in comments plays a role in strengthening meaning, expressing emotions, and helping to clarify the meaning of speech. Thus, the implications in TikTok's comments show that digital communication is not only informative, but also expressive and contextual.

Evaluation of Performance Improvement of Basic Techniques of Big Ball Games as an Effort to Develop Students' Sports Talent
type: item
description: Physical Education, Sports, and Health (PJOK) learning has an important role in improving motor skills while supporting the identification of students' sports talents. However, the process of evaluating the basic technical skills of big ball games in schools is still often carried out subjectively and has not made optimal use of quantitative data. This study aims to evaluate the improvement of the performance of the basic technique of the big ball game as an effort to develop the sports talent of high school students. The research uses a quantitative approach with an evaluative descriptive method. The research subjects consisted of 30 high school students who participated in an eight-week learning program of the basic techniques of the big ball game. Data was collected through tests of passing, dribbling, shooting, serving, and ball control skills, and supported by observation and documentation. The results showed that the average score of students' basic engineering skills increased from 65.20 in the pretest to 82.40 in the posttest with a percentage increase of 26.38%. Improvements occurred in all aspects of the skills measured, especially in shooting ability and ball control. Further research is suggested involving larger sample numbers as well as using inferential statistical analysis to obtain stronger empirical evidence.

Verb Phrase Structure in the Bajo Language
type: item
description: Language is the main communication tool used by humans to convey thoughts, feelings and wills. Each language has its own systems and rules, both in the fields of phonology, morphology, syntax, and semantics. This study aims to describe the structure of verb phrases in the Bajo language used by the people of Lomba Village, Lamala District, Banggai Regency. The focus of the research includes the structure of intransitive and transitive verb phrases and their formation patterns. The method used is a qualitative descriptive method with data collection techniques in the form of the see-through method and the cakap method. Data were obtained from the oral speech of native Bajo speakers as well as relevant written data. Data analysis was carried out using matching methods and distributional methods. The results of the study show that verb phrases in the Bajo language consist of intransitive verb phrases and transitive verb phrases. The structure of the verb phrase is formed by the relationship between the core element (the verb as upstream) and the additional element (adverbial, complementary, or operator). Three main patterns were found in intransitive verb phrases, namely the H–T (Upstream–Additional), T–H (Additional–Upstream), and T–H–T (Additional–Upstream–Additional). In transitive verb phrases, a similar pattern is also found, but with the presence of an object as a mandatory complement. In addition, in the structure of the Bajo verb phrase there is the use of grammatical operators such as negation markers, aspects, and prohibitions that affect the overall meaning of the phrase. This research is expected to contribute to the development of linguistic studies, especially in the field of regional language syntax, as well as support efforts to preserve the Bajo language as part of Indonesia's cultural wealth

MSDM Digitalization Strategy in Improving the Professionalism of Madrasah Ibtidaiyah Teachers: A Literature Study
type: item
description: Digital transformation in the education sector has driven fundamental changes in human resource management (HRM) practices, particularly in Islamic primary education institutions such as Madrasah Ibtidaiyah (MI). The digitalization of HRM is no longer limited to administrative efficiency but has evolved into a strategic instrument for enhancing teacher professionalism through data-driven management systems, digital performance evaluation, and continuous competency development. This study aims to analyze the concept of HRM digitalization strategies in the context of Madrasah Ibtidaiyah education and examine their role in improving teacher professionalism. This research employs a qualitative approach using a literature review method based on secondary data obtained from national scientific journals, academic books, and Indonesian education policy documents published within the last five years. Data were analyzed using content analysis, focusing on key themes such as HRM digitalization, teacher professionalism, and educational management transformation. The findings indicate that effective HRM digitalization strategies include the implementation of human resource information systems, e-performance systems, strengthening teachers’ digital literacy, technology-based competency development, and the transformation of digital organizational culture. HRM digitalization has been proven to enhance transparency, efficiency, accountability, and objectivity in teacher management. However, its success is strongly influenced by human resource readiness, educational leadership, and the availability of digital infrastructure. This study confirms that HRM digitalization plays a strategic role in developing sustainable teacher professionalism in Madrasah Ibtidaiyah through the integration of technology and the strengthening of digital pedagogical capacity.

Reconstruction of the TPQ Quality Assurance Paradigm: Integration of the Khoiro Ummah Concept and the PPEPP Cycle in the Digital Era
type: item
description: The digital era brings a double disruption to the Al-Qur'an Education Park (TPQ), namely the demand for technological adaptation as well as the threat of moral decline in Early Childhood and Elementary School (Alpha Generation). On the other hand, conventional TPQ governance is generally still traditional and has not touched the aspect of systematic quality standardization. This article aims to reconstruct the TPQ quality assurance paradigm through a literature study approach (library research). Reconstruction is carried out by integrating the theological-philosophical value of the concept of Khoiro Ummah (QS. Ali Imran: 110) with modern management instruments, namely the PPEPP cycle (Determination, Implementation, Evaluation, Control, and Improvement). The results of the conceptual study formulated four new quality pillars: (1) Qur'an-Based Content Standards Based on Digital Literacy and Manners, (2) TPQ Adaptive PPEPP Cycle, (3) Standardization of Asatidz Techno-Pedagogic Competencies, and (4) External Evaluation Based on Digital Parent Partnerships. This integration results in a holistic quality assurance model, where the quality of TPQ is no longer measured by cognitive reading fluency, but rather the formation of an Islamic personality (syakhsiyah Islamiyah) that is responsive to digital reality.

Implementasi Media Digital YouTube dalam Pembelajaran PJOK Materi Senam Irama untuk Mengembangkan Keterampilan Motorik Siswa Kelas V di SD Negeri 009 Sangatta Utara
type: item
description: This study aims to describe the implementation of YouTube digital media in physical education (PJOK) learning, identify the obstacles encountered, and explain the solutions used to develop the motor skills of fifth-grade students at SD Negeri 009 Sangatta Utara. This study used a qualitative approach with a field research design. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation involving the principal, PJOK teachers, and fifth-grade students. Data were analyzed through data condensation, data presentation, and conclusion drawing, while data validity was ensured through triangulation techniques. The results showed that the implementation of YouTube digital media was carried out through three stages: planning, implementation, and evaluation. In the planning stage, teachers prepared learning materials and selected appropriate YouTube videos related to rhythmic gymnastics. In the implementation stage, YouTube videos were used as visual learning media to help students observe and practice movements repeatedly. In the evaluation stage, teachers assessed students' motor skills through direct observation during practical activities. The use of YouTube contributed to the improvement of students' motor skills, especially in movement coordination, accuracy, agility, and imitation ability. In addition, students became more active, enthusiastic, and involved in the learning process. Barriers include limited internet access, inadequate facilities, differences in student motor skills, and a lack of confidence among some students. To address these challenges, teachers download videos, use personal devices when necessary, provide step-by-step guidance, and consistently motivate students. Therefore, YouTube can serve as an innovative and effective learning medium to support motor skill development in elementary school students.

Spatial-Material Memory Pedagogy: Deconstructing the Educational Model of Deuteronomy 6:4-9 in Digital Learning Spaces
type: item
description: The rapid migration of contemporary education into virtual environments has engineered an ontological crisis characterized by disembodied learning and digital learning space alienation. As instructional interactions are reduced to frictionless screens, students are increasingly severed from the physical geographies and tangible materials vital for shaping ethical consciousness and collective memory. This study addresses this theoretical gap by executing a qualitative deconstruction of Deuteronomy 6:4–9, reframing it from a narrow theological dogma into an ancient Near Eastern curricular artifact of resilience. Grounded in philosophical-pedagogical hermeneutics and a Derridean deconstructive approach, the study analyzes the semantic and syntactic functions of the Hebrew Masoretic text's spatial-itinerant verbs (yashab, halak, shakab, qum) and material-semiotic objects (’oth, totaphoth, mezuzah), dialectically juxtaposing them with contemporary frameworks of spatial pedagogy and new materialism. The analysis extracts a novel conceptual model termed the "Spatial-Material Pedagogy of Memory." The findings reveal that verse 7 establishes a "Liquid yet Place-Anchored Curriculum" that reclaims everyday geographical trajectories against digital non-places, while verses 8–9 deploy a "Curriculum of Materiality" that utilizes physical tokens and architectural thresholds to counteract digital amnesia through embodied cognition. Ultimately, this model destabilizes the technocentric hegemony of modern educational technology, offering a robust philosophical foundation for future hybrid curricula that intentionally bind digital tools to local physical ecologies and corporeal craftsmanship.

Toponymy and Collective Memory: Tracing the History of Sukarara Village Through Oral Traditions and Naming of Weaving Ornamental Varieties
type: item
description: Sukarara Village in Central Lombok has been better known as a weaving tourist destination, while the history behind the name of the village itself is rarely known. This research aims to trace the origin of the name Sukarara Village (toponymy) and the philosophical meaning of the traditional weaving ornamental variety that has been passed down from generation to generation, by considering that both were born from the same process, namely the collective memory of the community that was passed down orally without inscriptions or official written archives. This research uses a descriptive qualitative method with an ethnographic approach, through in-depth interviews with traditional leaders and weaving artisans, participatory observation, and the study of local historical documents. The results of the study show that the name "Sukarara" is rooted in the word "suke" (willing/sincere) which reflects the spirit of community independence, and is associated with the story of the founders of the village, Raden Uga and Raden Cempaka. The tradition of weaving is also integrated with the identity and rituals of the community, ranging from the ritual of "pemandik" to the traditional rules of "dende nyensek". Each weaving motif, such as Subahnale and Umbak, holds its own story and function, from the weaver's expression of admiration to the ritual of shaving baby hair. The study also found that the threat of fading of collective memory was due to the lack of regeneration of young weavers and the shift in value due to commercialization, so documentation became urgent.

The Symbolic Meaning of Bugis Traditional Wedding Clothes in Soni Village: A Semiotic Study of Charles Sanders Peirce's Theory
type: item
description: In various traditions in Indonesia, traditional clothing has an important position because it is used in sacred ceremonies, including wedding ceremonies. This research aims to describe the shape and meaning of symbols contained in Bugis traditional wedding clothes. The research uses a qualitative method with a descriptive approach. Data was obtained through observation, interviews, and documentation with informants consisting of traditional elders and the Bugis community who understood the meaning of traditional bridal attire. Data is analyzed through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawn. The results of the study show that the symbols on Bugis traditional wedding clothes are divided into verbal symbols and nonverbal symbols. Verbal symbols are obtained from the informant's explanation of the meaning of colors, jewelry, and traditional clothing related to purity, fertility, glory, social status, loyalty, responsibility, and siri' values in the life of the Bugis people. Nonverbal symbols appear in elements of clothing and accessories, such as wedding dresses, lipa' sabbe, potto, ponto, necklaces, giwang, crowns, keris, and songko, each of which contains philosophical meanings about honor, courage, welfare, fertility, happiness, and the hope of a harmonious domestic life. The findings of the study show that Bugis traditional wedding clothes not only function as wedding clothes, but also as a representation of cultural values, social identity, and ancestral heritage that are full of symbolic meaning.

type: item
description: The development of Arabic teaching materials by prospective teachers in universities is an important issue in line with the increasing demands of 21st century competence and the integration of technology in education. However, a comprehensive study of the trends and characteristics of the development of Arabic teaching materials by prospective teachers is still limited. This research aims to synthesize trends, approaches, and challenges that arise in the development of Arabic teaching materials in the higher education environment. This study uses the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method by following the PRISMA guidelines. Literature searches were conducted on Semantic Scholar, PubMed, OpenAlex, arXiv, and ClinicalTrials databases. Of the 123 documents identified, 37 studies met the inclusion criteria and were analyzed. Risk of bias was evaluated based on the relevant domain, while the level of certainty of the evidence was assessed using the GRADE framework. The results of the study show five main themes, namely: (1) the competence of prospective teachers in learning design, (2) the effectiveness of teaching materials and curriculum innovation, (3) the implementation of 21st century skills through the 4C framework, (4) the integration of technology and artificial intelligence in Arabic language learning, and (5) the quality of the teacher candidate education program. The dominant trends include the use of digital technology, the application of constructivistic approaches, and the strengthening of 21st century skills. However, various challenges are still found, such as curriculum incompatibility, limited digital resources, and lack of pedagogic training. This study shows that the development of Arabic teaching materials is moving towards a more digital, collaborative, and competency-based approach.

An Analysis of Students’ Understanding of Pancasila Symbols and the Implementation of Pancasila Values in Second Grade Elementary School
type: item
description: This study aims to analyze the understanding of second-grade students at SDN 147 Rejang Lebong regarding the symbols of Pancasila and the implementation of Pancasila values in learning, as well as to identify obstacles and teacher efforts in the process. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed with 12 student subjects. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, using indicators such as the ability to recognize symbols, mention the sound of each principle, relate symbols to daily behavior, and implement the values of Divinity, Humanity, Unity, Democracy, and Justice. The results show that most students are able to mention the symbols and the sound of Pancasila principles, but only a portion can relate them to everyday behaviors. Religious and cooperation values are most dominant, while the values of deliberation and justice still require habituation. The main obstacles include students' low concentration and limited variation in teaching methods. Teachers strive to enhance understanding by using visual media, group discussions, and positive behavior habituation. In conclusion, learning about Pancasila symbols is quite effective at the basic knowledge level, but value internalization requires more innovative and contextual methods. This research implies the need for the development of more creative Pancasila learning strategies and contributes as a reference for teachers and policymakers in designing character education relevant to the developmental stage of elementary school students.

The Challenge of Values Education in the Generation Alpha Era: Initiating a New Direction for Elementary Civics Education in Response to the Digital Moral Crisis
type: item
description: Generation Alpha grew up in a digital environment that made it a major social space, but their technical prowess was not in line with moral maturity. The phenomenon of language ethics degradation, cyberbullying, and low digital empathy in elementary schools indicate an escalation of moral crisis that requires serious handling. This research aims to analyze the challenges of value education in the Alpha Generation and formulate a new direction of learning in Pancasila and Citizenship Education (PKn) through the integration of digital citizenship. A qualitative approach with the library research method is used to review the scientific literature and factual data related to the digital moral crisis. The results of the study formulated two main strategies: (1) repositioning PKn material by converting Pancasila values into cyber ethics; and (2) transformation of learning methodology using a digital moral dilemma-based Case Method. This study concludes that the new direction of PKn requires adaptive curriculum transformation and strong synergy in the Tricenter Education ecosystem so that students' ethical character habituation is formed in its entirety in the real and virtual worlds.

Strategi Guru bahasa Arab dalam Meningkatkan Kemampuan Berbicara Bahasa Arab siswa Kelas VII di SMPIT Daarussalaam Sangatta Utara
type: item
description: This study aims to determine the Arabic speaking skills of seventh-grade students at SMPIT Daarussalaam and the strategies used by Arabic teachers to improve their Arabic speaking skills. This is a descriptive qualitative study with a phenomenological approach. This research is motivated by the difficulties junior high school students face in speaking Arabic due to limited vocabulary, limited practice, and low motivation, despite Arabic's importance as the language of the Quran and Islamic teachings. The study was conducted at SMPIT Daarussalaam in North Sangatta, East Kutai, from August 18 to October 15, 2025, with data sourced from the Arabic teacher, two students, and school documents. Data collection was conducted through observation, in-depth interviews, and document review, then analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model. The results indicate that students' speaking skills were initially low, but improved significantly through the integrated strategies implemented by the teachers. The main strategy includes the Mustaqilli method, which integrates structured grammar and morphology, daily recitation, dictation practice, group discussions, oral feedback, and the use of Smart TV. This approach has proven effective in encouraging active practice and building motivation based on Islamic values, aligning with communicative theory, behaviorism, and constructivism, and providing practical guidance for teachers and schools in holistic Arabic language learning.

Clause Structure in the Rai Dialect of the Kaili Language: A Descriptive Syntactic Study
type: item
description: Language is an important element in human life because it functions as a means of communication, conveying ideas, and a medium for inheriting cultural values from one generation to the next. This study aims to describe the structure, types, and rules of word formation through derivation, as well as the differences and syntactic relationships between independent clauses (free) and dependent clauses (bound) in the Kaili language of the Rai dialect, one of the varieties of Kaili language used in the Central Sulawesi region. The research uses a qualitative descriptive method; The data was collected through the Simak and Cakap method (interviews with native speakers, natural speech recordings), then analyzed using the matching and distribution method to identify the patterns, functions, and grammatical features. The results show that independent clauses can stand on their own as complete sentences, consisting of three main types: intransitive (without objects, S-P, P-S, and variations with adverbs), transitive (having objects, the basic pattern of S-P-O and its variations), and equivocal (connecting subjects and complements, without mandatory verbs). In contrast, dependent clauses cannot stand alone, function as part of compound sentences (as complements, adverbs, or adverbs), and are usually characterized by subordinate conjunctions or suffixes that mark syntactic dependencies on the main clause. At the morphological level, derivation is the process of forming new words with different meanings and classes of words, especially through suffixes (prefixes, suffixes, circumfixes) that are commonly used in this dialect. Suffixes such as na-, po-, ma-, pa- change the verb to a noun, change the active-passive meaning, or change the category of a word, for example from an adjective to a verb; This process becomes an important means of enriching vocabulary and composing more complex sentence structures. Overall, the syntactic and morphological system of the Rai dialect exhibits …

Nilai Edukatif Permainan Tradisional Congklak dalam Mengembangkan Kemampuan Berhitung Siswa Kelas II Sekolah Dasar Negeri 04 Bengalon
type: item
description: This study aimed to analyze the implementation of the educational values of the traditional game congklak in developing students’ counting ability and to identify its advantages and disadvantages at Sekolah Dasar Negeri 04 Bengalon, Bengalon District, East Kutai Regency. A qualitative field research approach was employed. Data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews with one second-grade teacher and three second-grade students, and documentation. The data were analyzed using Miles and Huberman’s interactive model and validated through triangulation techniques. The findings revealed that the traditional game congklak contained significant educational values in developing students’ counting ability, particularly in the cognitive aspect, such as recognizing numbers, counting seeds, and performing simple addition and subtraction. In addition, the game also fostered affective values, including honesty and patience, as well as social values such as cooperation and positive interaction among students. The advantages of using congklak included making learning more enjoyable, improving concentration and learning interest, and preserving local culture. However, several disadvantages were also identified, such as the limited number of players, the need for specific equipment, relatively long playing time, and the requirement for intensive teacher guidance. The study concluded that integrating the traditional game congklak into classroom instruction can serve as an effective and contextual alternative medium for developing both counting skills and character among lower-grade elementary school students

type: item
description: This study was conducted in response to the low level of student engagement in Indonesian language learning. It aimed to examine the difference in student engagement before and after the implementation of the Matching Word Game learning media in the experimental group, the difference in student engagement before and after instruction without the Matching Word Game learning media in the control group, and the difference in student engagement between the experimental group, which received instruction using the Matching Word Game learning media, and the control group, which received conventional instruction without the media. This study employed a quantitative approach using an experimental method with a Non-Equivalent Control Group Design. The participants consisted of 25 fifth-grade students from Class VC as the experimental group and 24 fifth-grade students from Class VB as the control group. Data were collected through observation, questionnaires, and documentation, and analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Since the data were not normally distributed, the hypotheses were tested using the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test and the Mann–Whitney U Test with the assistance of SPSS version 27. The findings revealed a significant improvement in student engagement in Indonesian language learning among students in the experimental group after the implementation of the Matching Word Game learning media, whereas no significant difference was found in the control group. Furthermore, a significant difference in student engagement was observed between the experimental and control groups. These findings indicate that the Matching Word Game learning media is effective in enhancing student engagement in Indonesian language learning among fifth-grade elementary school students.

Phonological Structure of Kaili Language Rai Dialect
type: item
description: The main problems studied are the form of phonological processes as well as the variations and sound characteristics of language used in daily communication. This study aims to analyze phonological processes and identify the dominant types of sound changes in the Kaili language of the Rai dialect. The method used in this study is qualitative descriptive. The research data is in the form of oral speech (words, phrases, and sentences) obtained directly from native speaker informants through the simak method (tapping technique, simak engaged cakap, simak free engaged cakap, and note) and cakap method (fishing technique, recording, and note). Data analysis is carried out interactively, which includes the data reduction stage, data presentation in the form of inventory tables and descriptions, and conclusion drawn. The results show that there is a variety of vowel phonemes (/a/, /i/, /u/, /e/, /o/) and various consonant phonemes, noting that the consonant phoneme /w/ is not found in this dialect. The sound system of the Kaili language of the Rai dialect has unique characteristics that are shown through the presence of contrasting consonants (such as the pairs /p/ and /b/, /k/ and /g/), front and middle consonant clusters (e.g. mpu'u, rombi), consonant sequences (punti, komporo), and diphthongs (/ai/, /au/, /oi/). In addition, a consistent pattern of sound distribution was found, including contrast distributions that function to distinguish the meaning of words (e.g. the vowels /u/ and /o/ in the word pulu polo) as well as complementary distributions influenced by the phonological environment around the phoneme.

Metaphorical Style in the Song Lyrics in the Album the Second Step: Chapter Two by Treasure
type: item
description: Song lyrics as a form of art not only function as a medium of entertainment, but also as a means of emotional expression and effective cultural representation. This study aimed to identify the forms and analyze the meanings of metaphorical figurative language in the song lyrics of the album The Second Step: Chapter Two by TREASURE. A qualitative descriptive approach in linguistics was applied in this research. Data were collected using observing, recording, and note-taking techniques. For the analysis of metaphor types and meanings, Knowles and Moon's (2006) theoretical framework was utilized, in which three main components (vehicle, topic, and ground) were focused upon. Based on the results, 15 metaphorical data from the seven analyzed songs were found, which were classified into metonymy (5 data), personification (4 data), simile (3 data), and synesthesia (3 data). Metonymy was shown to be the most dominantly used metaphor, indicating that conceptual contiguity associations were utilized to convey implicit messages. Furthermore, code-mixing elements were also found within the metaphor constructions, which were used to serve crucial semantic functions for emphasis and semantic precision due to the lack of lexical equivalents.

Pemanfaatan Media Pembelajaran Canva Pada Pelajaran IPAS di Kelas III SDI Mutiara Islam Al Ittiba
type: item
description: This study aimed to describe the utilization of Canva as a learning medium in IPAS instruction and to identify the supporting and inhibiting factors in its implementation among third-grade students at SDI Mutiara Islam Al Ittiba’ Sangatta Utara. A qualitative descriptive field research design was employed, with data collected through classroom observation, semi-structured interviews with the vice principal for curriculum, two homeroom teachers, and selected students, as well as documentation of learning materials. Data were analyzed using the interactive model of Miles and Huberman, involving data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing, while data trustworthiness was ensured through source, technique, and time triangulation. The findings revealed that Canva was utilized across three main stages: planning, where teachers designed slides, student worksheets (LKPD), and happy notes tailored to students’ characteristics; implementation, where it served as a visual and interactive tool to present material and facilitate discussion; and evaluation, where it supported feedback through attractive notes. Supporting factors included adequate technological facilities, the user-friendly nature of Canva, school policy support, and students’ enthusiasm. In contrast, inhibiting factors comprised limited access to Canva Edu, unstable internet connections, insufficient supporting devices, time constraints in media preparation, and the tendency to use templates without sufficient pedagogical adaptation. Teachers addressed these challenges through adaptive strategies such as preparing backup media, downloading designs in advance, simplifying visual layouts. The study concludes that Canva effectively enhanced the concreteness and engagement of IPAS learning, although its optimal utilization requires stronger institutional support in infrastructure and continuous teacher professional development.
