INTEGRATING DIGITAL FORMATIVE ASSESSMENT WITH LEARNING ANALYTICS TO IMPROVE STUDENT INTEREST IN LEARNING IN THE AGE OF AI
type: item
description: This study aims to analyze the integration of digital formative assessment with learning analytics as a strategic approach to improving student learning interest in the era of artificial intelligence (AI). This study is a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) using the PRISMA approach, examining 32 selected articles from databases such as Google Scholar, Semantic Scholar, ERIC, DOAJ, and Scopus, spanning the years 2013 to 2024, in both Indonesian and English. Key findings from this article indicate that the integration of digital formative assessment and learning analytics not only enhances learning effectiveness but also significantly strengthens students' intrinsic motivation and learning interest. Personalized feedback generated from learning analytics has proven effective in fostering self-confidence, active engagement, and self-directed learning awareness among students. However, this study also revealed limitations in implementation, such as low teacher data literacy, technological infrastructure constraints, and a lack of studies specifically linking analytics features to the psychological dimensions of learning interest. Therefore, further research is needed with a broader sample, diverse educational contexts, and the development of more accurate instruments to measure the impact of this integration in depth. The findings of this study are expected to contribute theoretically and practically to the development of adaptive, personalized, and data-driven educational policies in the digital age.

ENGLISH WITH THE AUDIOVISUAL METHOD: EFFECTIVENESS OF ITS USE FOR DEAF STUDENTS
type: item
description: This study aims to determine the effectiveness of audiovisual-based English content in improving the vocabulary of deaf students. The research method employed in this study is mixed methods (a combination of qualitative and quantitative approaches). First, the team will use a descriptive qualitative method with an in-depth interview approach to understand the teaching and learning process. Then, the research team will use a quantitative method, namely a quasi-experiment with a pre-posttest design, to determine whether audiovisual-based YouTube content can effectively improve the English vocabulary of deaf students. Based on the results of in-depth interviews, researchers obtained data that in teaching English to deaf students, teachers utilized concrete objects around the students and the memorization method. Meanwhile, based on the results of experiments using the Paired Sample Test, the calculated t value was negative (-16.263), which means that the average pretest score was lower than the post-test score. The sig. (2-tailed) value showed 0.000 < 0.005, indicating a significant difference in English learning outcomes using the audiovisual method for deaf students at SLB Negeri Saronggi.

THE ROLE OF THE PRINCIPAL IN STRENGTHENING SCHOOLBASED MANAGEMENT (SBM) IN PUBLIC AND PRIVATE HIGH SCHOOL
type: item
description: School-Based Management (SBM) demands effective leadership and organizational capacity for school autonomy to impact quality improvement. This study aims to analyze the role of principals in strengthening SBM in public high schools and compare instructional leadership practices and organizational capacity across school types. The research approach used a descriptive literature study design; data were collected from books, scientific articles, regulations, and reports that were analyzed critically and thematically. The results indicate that public high school principals are generally more mature in setting strategic goals, using data for evidence-based planning, implementing systematic academic supervision, and building a collaborative culture; while many private high schools especially medium and small experienced limitations in capacity, data, training, networking, and monitoring and evaluation mechanisms. The findings also emphasize the role of principals as capacity builders who mobilize resources and strengthen coordination. The discussion links the results to the literature on instructional leadership and SBM and highlights contextual barriers that influence implementation. This study addresses the research objectives by uncovering similarities and differences in leadership and organizational capacity-enhancing factors. It also recommends strengthening data-based training, developing monitoring and evaluation systems, and expanding partnerships as policy measures. These recommendations are expected to support more evidence-based, participatory, and sustainable SBM practices, thereby significantly improving the quality of learning in high schools

IMPLEMENTATION OF POLICY NO. 46 OF 2023 ON THE PREVENTION AND HANDLING OF VIOLENCE IN KINDERGARTENS IN PIDIE REGENCY
type: item
description: Cases of violence and bullying within educational settings in Indonesia have become a serious issue, with 2,355 recorded violations of child protection in the education sector as of August 2023. Bullying most frequently occurred at the elementary and junior high school levels (25% each), followed by senior high schools and vocational schools (18.75% each), Islamic junior high schools (6.25%), and Islamic boarding schools (6.25%). Specifically, Aceh Province has also reported a significant number of bullying and sexual violence cases, with 575 cases of sexual violence against women and children recorded by June 2023. In response to the widespread prevalence of harassment cases in Indonesia, particularly in Pidie District, the Ministry of Education issued Regulation No. 46 of 2023 concerning the Prevention and Handling of Violence in Educational Settings. This regulation aims to create a safe and effective learning environment, one of its key measures being the establishment of a Team for the Prevention and Handling of Violence (TPPK) in every educational institution. However, the implementation of this regulation still faces challenges, especially in Pidie District. Observations indicate that the formation of TPPK has not been optimal, particularly at the kindergarten to junior high school levels, whereas senior and vocational high schools—under provincial government authority—have demonstrated more efficient implementation. Although there have been previous studies discussing the prevention and handling of violence in educational environments—whether related to Regulation No. 46 of 2023 or efforts to prevent bullying through character education—these studies tend to focus on narrow scopes. Therefore, this study specifically examines “The Implementation of Regulation No. 46 of 2023 on the Prevention and Handling of Violence in Kindergartens in Pidie District.” This research is crucial for assessing the effectiveness of policy implementation on a broader scale and for…

TRANSFORMATION OF ISLAMIC BOARDING SCHOOL EDUCATION IN THE DIGITAL ERA: A CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF THE INTERNALIZATION OF QUR'ANIC VALUES
type: item
description: This study aims to analyze the transformation of Islamic boarding school education in the digital era with a focus on the internalization of Qur'anic values as the core of Islamic education. The rapidly growing digitalization phenomenon has brought opportunities and challenges for Islamic boarding schools, both in terms of management, learning methods, and the transmission of religious values. The method used is library research with a descriptive qualitative approach, through a critical review of reputable journals, academic books, and relevant documents discussing the digitalization of Islamic education and the practice of internalizing Qur'anic values. The results show that digitalization not only affects the technical aspects of the implementation of Islamic boarding school education, but also impacts the pattern of teacher-student relationships, the authority of kiai, and the depth of internalization of Qur'anic values. On the one hand, digital technology expands access to knowledge, enriches learning methods, and increases the effectiveness of Islamic boarding school management. However, on the other hand, there is a risk of reducing the meaning of Qur'anic values, spiritual degradation, and the penetration of external cultures that are not always in line with Islamic boarding school traditions. This research emphasizes that the integration of digital technology and the internalization of Quranic values must be carried out critically and selectively, while still upholding the role of the exemplary role of Islamic scholars (kyai). The academic contribution of this research lies in the presentation of a new conceptual framework that connects digital transformation with the internalization of Quranic values, thus serving as a reference in developing adaptive, authentic, and transformative Islamic education strategies.

THE INFLUENCE OF ANTI-CORRUPTION EDUCATION ON STUDENTS’ ATTITUDES AND INTEGRITY BEHAVIOR IN HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS
type: item
description: This study aims to analyze the influence of anti-corruption education on students’ attitudes and integrity behavior in higher education. A mixed methods approach was applied, combining questionnaires, surveys, interviews, and observations. A total of 104 students completed qualitative questionnaires, and 142 students participated in quantitative surveys. The findings reveal that most students understand the importance of anti-corruption education (94.4%) and consider it relevant to academic life (89.4%). Furthermore, 88.8% of students reject academic misconduct such as cheating and proxy attendance, while 85.9% expressed readiness to act as anti-corruption agents both on campus and in society. Qualitative data also highlight positive changes in honesty, discipline, and responsibility. This study concludes that anti-corruption education effectively raises awareness, shapes character, and encourages students to internalize integrity values in both academic and social contexts.

LEARNING MANAGEMENT AT SMP ASSALAM ISLAMIC SCHOOL JEUNIEB, BIREUEN REGENCY
type: item
description: This study aims to describe the management of learning at SMP Assalam Islamic School Jeunieb using the POAC approach (Planning, Organizing, Actuating, Controlling). The research employed a descriptive qualitative method, with data collected through interviews, observation, and documentation. The research subjects included the principal, vice principal for curriculum, and teachers. The results showed that in the planning stage, the school designed the learning process collaboratively and integratively between the national curriculum and the Islamic curriculum based on the dayah system. The principal, vice principal, and teachers were involved in developing integrative lesson plans (RPP), adjusting the morning tahfiz schedule, and identifying the necessary teaching components. In the organizing stage, the school established a clear organizational structure, assigned tasks according to teacher competencies, and ensured regular coordination. The management of learning facilities and infrastructure was carried out systematically and carefully by the education staff. The implementation stage combined modern and traditional methods such as lectures, discussions, sorogan, bandongan, and memorization. Teachers actively integrated general subject content with Islamic values to create meaningful and religious learning experiences. The supervision stage was carried out hierarchically, both internally by the principal and vice principal, and externally by supervisors from the education office and the dayah institution. Supervision included classroom observations, evaluation of teaching documents, and assessments of students’ academic and spiritual development. The findings indicate that the POAC approach can be effectively applied to manage integrated learning that combines two curricula. The study also resulted in a model of integrative learning management based on Islamic values in the context of Islamic boarding schools.

LEADERSHIP DYNAMICS IN FACING THE CHALLENGES OF GLOBALIZATION IN ISLAMIC HIGHER EDUCATION
type: item
description: The dynamics of Islamic Religious Colleges (PTKI) in Indonesia are greatly influenced by globalization. PTKI are required to improve academic quality, increase global competitiveness, and adopt information technology, all of which are done without ignoring Islamic principles as a basis. The purpose of this study is to analyze various PTKI leadership strategies in facing the challenges of globalization. In this article, it was found that transformational leadership and servant leadership are two relevant strategies. Transformational leadership encourages innovation and motivation, while servant leadership emphasizes individual development and service. Both of these strategies are considered to have the ability to create an inclusive, character-based academic environment that is ready to make changes throughout the world. So, to remain relevant and superior in the global education arena, PTKI requires visionary, effective, and Islamic value-based leadership.

THE TRANSFORMATION OF WOMEN'S SPIRITUALITY IN URBAN SUFISM: A PHENOMENOLOGICAL STUDY OF THE MAJLIS DZIKIR GURU SEKUMPUL
type: item
description: Urban Sufism emerged as a response to the spiritual crisis and moral degradation of modern society, particularly among urban women. Modernity and urbanization have created a void of meaning and weakened people's spiritual connection with God. In this context, the Sufi teachings of KH. Zaini Abdul Ghani (Guru Sekumpul) offer spiritual transformation based on Islamic moral values and spirituality. This study aims to analyze the role of Guru Sekumpul's Sufism in building spiritual intelligence and strengthening the religiosity of women in the majlis environment, while also reviewing its relevance to the challenges of urban life. This study uses a qualitative approach with a library research method enriched with observations and light interviews with female congregants of the Majlis Thariqah Guru Sekumpul in urban areas. The results show that Sufi practices in the Guru Sekumpul Majlis, such as zikr, recitation, and social activities, shape the character of insan kamil and strengthen the social solidarity of urban women. In addition, the emergence of a community of social volunteers is a manifestation of spiritual intelligence that balances worldly and spiritual life. This study contributes to the development of modern Sufism studies and offers a new perspective on women's spirituality in the context of urban society.

THE EFFECT OF TRAINING AND CAREER DEVELOPMENT ON EMPLOYEE PERFORMANCE WITH ORGANIZATIONAL COMMITMENT AS A MEDIATING VARIABLE AMONG EMPLOYEES OF RADIO REPUBLIK INDONESIA YOGYAKARTA
type: item
description: The phenomenon at Radio Republik Indonesia (RRI) Yogyakarta reflects the challenges in achieving optimal employee performance due to low participation, limited initiative, ineffective training results, unstructured career development, and weak organizational commitment. This study aims to analyze the effect of training and career development on employee performance with organizational commitment as a mediating variable among employees of RRI Yogyakarta. A quantitative survey approach was used, involving 45 respondents selected through a census method. The data were analyzed using Partial Least Square-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) to test the validity, reliability, model-fit, and significance of the relationships between variables. The findings show that both training and career development have a positive and significant effect on employee performance and organizational commitment. However, organizational commitment does not have a direct or significant mediating effect on performance, nor does it significantly influence employee performance. This study highlights the importance of implementing relevant and structured human resource development programs to improve individual competence and organizational productivity. These results provide practical insights for management to strengthen the effectiveness of training and establish clear career paths to support continuous performance improvement.

IMPROVING THE PROCESS AND LEARNING OUTCOMES OF PANCASILA EDUCATION USING THE NUMBERED HEADS TOGETHER COOPERATIVE MODEL ASSISTED BY ANIMATION MEDIA
type: item
description: This research was motivated by the low student participation and suboptimal learning outcomes in the Pancasila Education subject for Grade V students at SDN 130/II Pasir Putih. The learning process tended to be monotonous as it relied solely on textbooks, without the support of engaging instructional media. To address this issue, the study aimed to improve the learning process and student outcomes by implementing the cooperative learning model of the Numbered Heads Together (NHT) type assisted by animation media. This study is a Classroom Action Research (CAR) conducted in two cycles. Each cycle consisted of two meetings, covering the stages of planning, implementation, observation, and reflection. The research subjects were 20 fifth-grade students. Data were collected through teacher and student activity observations, as well as learning outcome tests, and analyzed using both quantitative and qualitative methods. The results of the study showed a significant improvement in both the learning process and outcomes. Teacher activity observation scores increased from 76% in the first cycle to 95.8% in the second cycle. Student activity also improved from 70.8% to 91.7%. Furthermore, the number of students who achieved a score of ≥70 increased from 12 students (60%) in the first cycle to 17 students (85%) in the second cycle. Thus, it can be concluded that the implementation of the Numbered Heads Together model assisted by animation media is effective in enhancing the quality of the learning process and outcomes in Pancasila Education

ACCOUNTABILITY IN THE MANAGEMENT OF SCHOOL OPERATIONAL ASSISTANCE (BOS) FUNDS FOR IMPROVING EDUCATIONAL QUALITY AT SMK MA’ARIF NU 2 KARANGLEWAS
type: item
description: This study aims to conduct an in-depth analysis of the accountability-based management of School Operational Assistance (BOS) funds to improve the quality of education at SMK Ma’arif NU 2 Karanglewas, Banyumas Regency. Although various previous studies have highlighted the importance of transparency and accountability in the management of BOS funds, research that specifically focuses on vocational school contexts remains limited. In fact, vocational education has its own complexities, particularly concerning the need for practical facilities, the strengthening of productive teachers’ competencies, and the governance of expertise programs. This research gap indicates the necessity of providing a more detailed analysis of how accountability practices can directly contribute to improving the quality of educational services in vocational institutions. This study employs a qualitative approach using a case study method, enabling the researcher to obtain a comprehensive understanding of the dynamics of BOS fund management within the educational unit. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with the principal, BOS treasurer, teachers, and the school committee. Field observations and document analysis—including financial reports and records of budget realization—were used to enhance the validity of the findings. The results show that SMK Ma’arif NU 2 Karanglewas has implemented accountability principles through systematic and transparent financial reporting, the active involvement of the school committee in planning and monitoring processes, and the provision of publicly accessible information. These accountability practices have made a tangible contribution to improving learning facilities and infrastructure, strengthening the quality of teaching and learning processes, and enhancing teacher professionalism. Thus, the accountability of BOS fund management functions not only as an administrative obligation but also as a strategic foundation for building public trust…

THE EFFECT OF SOCIAL AND CIVIC VALUES ON ACCOUNTING STUDENTS’ ACCOUNTABILITY ATTITUDES AT THE FACULTY OF ECONOMICS, HKBP NOMMENSEN UNIVERSITY, MEDAN
type: item
description: s study aims to examine and analyze the influence of social values and citizenship values on the accountability attitude of accounting students at the Faculty of Economics, HKBP Nommensen University. Accountability reflects a moral and ethical attitude that demonstrates an individual’s responsibility to perform tasks honestly, transparently, and reliably. In the context of higher education, the development of student accountability is influenced by various factors, including social values and citizenship values that are instilled through learning processes and campus life. This research employs a quantitative approach with an associative method. The population of the study consists of all students of the Accounting Study Program, Faculty of Economics, HKBP Nommensen University. The sample was determined using a proportional random sampling technique, totaling 133 respondents. Data were collected through a closed-ended questionnaire and analyzed using multiple linear regression with the assistance of the latest version of SPSS software. The results indicate that social values have a positive and significant effect on students’ accountability attitude. Likewise, citizenship values also have a positive and significant influence on accountability. Simultaneously, both variables contribute significantly, explaining 62.4% of the variation in students’ accountability attitudes. This finding implies that the higher the students’ social and citizenship values, the stronger their accountability behavior in both academic and social contexts. In conclusion, the formation of accountability attitudes among accounting students is influenced not only by cognitive aspects but also by the internalization of strong social and citizenship values. Therefore, universities need to strengthen character-based and civic education activities to develop accounting graduates who are both professional and highly ethical..
