Islamic Religious Education Teachers' Perceptions of the Implementation of Character Education in Middle Schools
type: item
description: Character education is a key focus of the national education system, particularly at the junior high school (SMP) level. Islamic Religious Education (PAI) teachers hold a strategic position in integrating character values ​​into the learning process, both in and outside the classroom. This study aims to analyze PAI teachers' perceptions of the implementation of character education in junior high schools. The research method used is a desk study by analyzing literature related to character education, the role of teachers, and the implementation of Islamic values ​​in schools. The results show that most PAI teachers view character education as an integral part of the mission of Islamic education, as it not only teaches cognitive aspects but also shapes students' attitudes, morals, and spirituality. However, teachers also face several challenges, such as time constraints, the influence of the digital environment, and a lack of support from some parents. This study confirms that the implementation of character education will be effective if PAI teachers are given adequate space to integrate Islamic values ​​into the curriculum, receive institutional support, and build collaboration with all involved parties.

The Role of Islamic Religious Education Teachers in Shaping Students' Digital Literacy in the Modern Era
type: item
description: The development of digital technology has had a significant impact on the world of education, including the learning process of Islamic Religious Education (PAI). PAI teachers are required not only to master religious material but also to possess digital literacy skills to be able to guide students in facing the challenges of the modern era. Digital literacy in this context goes beyond the technical ability to use technology, but also encompasses ethical, critical, and religious understanding of media. Thus, PAI teachers play a crucial role in shaping a generation that is not only digitally literate but also able to use technology wisely in accordance with Islamic values. This study used a library study method by reviewing various literature related to digital literacy, the role of teachers, and Islamic education. The results of the study indicate that PAI teachers have a strategic role in three main aspects: as guides of digital ethics, facilitators of technology utilization in learning, and role models in the wise use of digital media. This aligns with the needs of education in the era of the Industrial Revolution 5.0, where technological mastery must be balanced with the instilling of spiritual and moral values. Challenges that arise include limited teacher digital competence, limited resources, and the rapid flow of negative information that has the potential to damage students' character. However, with the right strategies such as integrating Islamic digital literacy into learning, digital training for teachers, and collaboration with parents, Islamic Religious Education teachers can shape a digitally literate generation that is intelligent and has an Islamic character, so that they are ready to face the complex dynamics of global life.

The Impact of Academic Pressure on Students' Mental Health in the Context of Modern Education
type: item
description: This study aims to analyze the impact of academic pressure on students' mental health in a modern, competitive, results-oriented education system. Current education is characterized by high demands, a dense curriculum, and cognitive-based assessment standards, which often neglect students' emotional aspects. The study used a qualitative approach with a descriptive survey method, involving 30 high school students in grades 11 and 12 from three major cities in Indonesia. Data were collected through an open-ended questionnaire and analyzed using thematic analysis techniques. The results showed that the majority of students experienced academic pressure that negatively impacted their mental health, such as stress, anxiety, fatigue, sleep disturbances, and academic burnout. Furthermore, students also found it difficult to manage their time between schoolwork and personal needs. Although some students stated they received support from their schools, most felt that the education system still did not adequately address the balance between academic achievement and mental health. Therefore, a more humane educational policy reform is needed, with an empathetic and responsive approach to students' psychological conditions. This study recommends the importance of integrating mental health support services into the curriculum and learning system in schools

Strengthening Character Education in Islamic Elementary Schools through a Holistic Learning Approach
type: item
description: This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of a holistic learning approach in strengthening character education in Islamic elementary schools. Education at this level is not only aimed at mastering academic knowledge, but also instilling moral, spiritual, and social values ​​​​in accordance with Islamic teachings. The reality in the field shows that learning practices are still dominated by conventional methods that emphasize memorization, while character building is often positioned as an additional aspect. This creates a gap between the ideal goals of Islamic education and the implementation of daily learning. This study used a literature study method by analyzing various literature in the form of books, scientific articles, and relevant curriculum documents. A descriptive qualitative approach was used to identify key concepts, compare expert views, and compile a synthesis regarding holistic learning and its relevance to character education in Islamic elementary schools. The results show that a holistic approach is able to strengthen character education by integrating cognitive, affective, psychomotor, and spiritual aspects in the learning process. Strategies that can be implemented include integrative thematic learning, Project Based Learning, teacher role models, religious habits, and the development of an Islamic school culture. However, challenges faced include limited teacher competence, limited learning facilities, and an educational orientation that emphasizes academic achievement

Utilization of Microlearning Media as an Innovative Solution to Improve Student Learning
type: item
description: The development of digital technology encourages higher education institutions to adopt more flexible, adaptive, and relevant learning strategies. Students as a digital generation need short, practical, and technology-based learning methods. One approach that is considered capable of answering these challenges is microlearning. Microlearning is a learning strategy that presents material in the form of small and dense units, which supports a fast and efficient learning process. Learning media plays an important role in optimizing this strategy, because it is able to convey content visually, auditorily, and interactively. The use of media such as short videos, animations, and infographics helps students understand concepts more easily and interestingly. This study aims to analyze the use of microlearning media as an innovative solution to improve the quality of student learning. In addition to exploring the form and effectiveness of the media used, this study also highlights various implementation challenges, such as limited technology infrastructure and digital literacy. The results of the study show that microlearning media is not only a learning aid, but also a driving force for the transformation of higher education. Therefore, a systematic implementation strategy and institutional support are needed so that microlearning media can be applied optimally and sustainably in the campus environment.

The Influence of the Number of Business Actors on Price Stability in the Oligopoly Model
type: item
description: This research aims to analyze the influence of the number of business owners on price stability in an oligopoly market structure. In an oligopoly market, the interaction between business entities plays a crucial role in determining prices. A small number of businesses tends to create price instability due to interdependent competitive strategies, including potential collusion or aggressive price reactions. Conversely, as the number of businesses increases, competition becomes fiercer and the tendency for prices to stabilize also increases. This research uses a descriptive qualitative approach thru literature studies and microeconomic theory analysis using the Cournot and Bertrand models. The study results show that market structure significantly determines price formation patterns, with the number of business operators being an important variable in creating market efficiency and price stability. Additionally, strategic interdependence between firms explains the phenomenon of price stickiness and extreme fluctuations in oligopolistic markets. This finding contributes to understanding the dynamics of oligopoly and the policy implications for regulating a healthier and more competitive market structure. This research also recommends the importance of regulation to increase the number of business actors in order to foster a fair competitive climate and stable prices, thereby protecting the interests of consumers broadly.

Approaches in Educational Supervision: Directive, Non-Directive, and Collaborative Analysis in Improving Teacher Professionalism
type: item
description: Educational supervision is an important strategy to improve the quality of learning and the professionalism of educators. There are three main approaches to supervision, namely directive, non-directive, and collaborative. The directive approach places the supervisor as the main provider of direction, suitable for novice teachers or those who need intensive guidance. The non-directive approach emphasizes teacher autonomy in identifying and solving learning problems, so it is suitable for experienced, independent teachers. Meanwhile, the collaborative approach combines the two, emphasizing the partnership between supervisor and teacher in the process of reflection and decision-making. The analysis shows that there is no absolute superior approach. The effectiveness of supervision is largely determined by the suitability of the approach to the characteristics of the teacher, the objectives of supervision, and the educational context. In practice, professional supervisors need to be flexible and able to adjust the approach as needed. The right approach can improve teacher motivation, competence, and performance in managing learning. Therefore, a deep understanding of these three approaches is crucial in implementing effective and sustainable educational supervision.

Narrative Research & Grounded Theory Research Design
type: item
description: Qualitative research is an approach that aims to understand social reality, human behavior, and the meaning contained in it through the perspective of the subject under study. In contrast to quantitative research which emphasizes numbers and generalizations, qualitative research prioritizes depth of understanding and interpretation of meaning. In qualitative research, there are various designs that can be used, including Narrative Research and Grounded Theory which are often the main choices for researchers who want to explore complex phenomena. Narrative Research focuses on stories or narratives told by individuals, with the aim of uncovering personal meaning, life experiences, and a person's subjective interpretation of the events they experience. Through this approach, researchers seek to understand how individuals make meaning of their lives, and how these experiences shape their identities and behaviors. Meanwhile, Grounded Theory aims to build theories that are truly born from field data through an inductive approach. Researchers collect data without bringing an initial theory and gradually form categories, concepts, until finally producing a theory that can explain the phenomenon under study. This process involves iterative data collection and analysis through open, axial and selective coding techniques. This article not only discusses the definitions and characteristics of the two designs, but also reviews the types of research, distinctive features, advantages, essential differences, and challenges that may be faced in their application. These challenges include the difficulty in obtaining authentic narratives, the potential for researcher subjectivity, and the complexity of the theory development process. This article is organized through a literature study and descriptive analysis that aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of how and when Narrative Research and Grounded Theory can be appropriately applied in qualitative research.

type: item
description: This study aims to self-determination theory approach. This theory emphasises the importance of three basic aspects in building intrinsic motivation, namely autonomy, competence, and connectedness. In the context of digital policy, these three aspects are crucial to be studied further in order to understand how technology contributes to students' enthusiasm for learning. The method used is library research with a qualitative approach. Data were collected from various literature sources, such as scientific journals, books, and policy reports that are relevant to the theme of educational digitalisation and learning motivation. The analysis was carried out thematically to explore the relationship between digital policies and students' psychological conditions in the learning process. The results of the study show that digitalisation policies can increase students' learning motivation if supported by adequate facilities, teacher training, and a fun learning approach. However, in areas that are less ready in terms of infrastructure, this policy actually creates gaps and reduces learning enthusiasm. Therefore, an inclusive and contextual implementation strategy is needed so that digitalisation really has a positive impact on students' learning motivation.

Integration of Islamic Legal Values ​​in the National Education System Conceptual and Implementative Studies
type: item
description: This study aims to formulate a conceptual and implementative framework for integrating Islamic legal values ​​into the Indonesian national education system. This is done as an effort to address the increasingly worrying character crisis and moral degradation among the younger generation. The national education system has so far prioritized a technocratic approach that tends to ignore the dimensions of values, ethics, and spirituality so that education loses its main function as a means of forming a whole person. The research method used is a qualitative approach with library research. An in-depth literature review was conducted on the basic principles of Islamic law, such as justice, responsibility, compassion, equality, and social solidarity, and their relevance in educational practices in Indonesia. The results of the study indicate that the integration of Islamic legal values ​​can be done through three main approaches, namely curricular, methodological, and cultural. Despite facing challenges in the form of ideological resistance, limited resources, and low-value literacy among educators, the development of a value-based curriculum, teacher training, and strengthening school culture can be effective solutions. This research makes an important contribution to the development of a more humanistic, character-based, and transcendental value-oriented national education.

Integration of Social Media as A Learning Tool in Mamba’ul ‘Ulum Private Ibtidaiyah School
type: item
description: This study focuses on children's developmental progress at Raudhatul Athfal Al-Bashitiyah concerning learning activities in early childhood education RA Al-Basithiyah, specifically in group B, where the children's numerical recognition skills are notably deficient. When requested, numerical figures should be displayed in the corresponding forms of the digits. Furthermore, only 13 youngsters can write the digits 1-10, while only 17 children can sequentially recite the numbers 1-10. The children's incapacity at RA Al-Basithiyah to recognize and recite the numbers 1-10 is due to the suboptimal teaching method employed for number recognition. The introduction of numbers needs to be supported more by modest learning material, which fails to enhance children's number recognition skills. This study seeks to ascertain if using number cards as a medium can improve children's counting abilities at RA Al Bashitiyah. This study constitutes a Classroom Action Research (PTK). This research employs observation and documentation as data-collecting tools. The participants in this study are the offspring of RA Al Bashitiyah. The study's results utilized two cycles: in the first cycle, the MB category comprised 18 children (60%) and the BSH category included 12 children (40%); in the second cycle, the MB category contained two children (7%) while the BSB category encompassed 28 children (93%), indicating the completion of the second cycle. The number card game enhances children's counting abilities
