This study aims to describe the implementation of innovative learning strategies through the Game-Based Learning (GBL) model to enhance the active participation of tenth-grade students in Islamic Religious Education (PAI) at MA Hasyimiyah. The research is motivated by the prevalence of conventional teacher-centered learning, which results in low student engagement and enthusiasm. Employing a descriptive qualitative approach with a case study design, the research subjects included tenth-grade students at MA Hasyimiyah and Field Experience Practice (PPL) students as key informants who conducted the lessons directly. Data collection techniques included classroom observations, semi-structured interviews with PPL students, and documentation gathered during a one-month PPL period. The results indicate that the application of the GBL model utilizing digital media such as Quizizz, Wordwall, Zep Quiz, and Spinner, as well as manual media like question-and-answer cards, significantly increased learning motivation, classroom interaction, and active participation. This improvement was evidenced by students' increased confidence in expressing opinions and intensive involvement in group discussions. Although challenges such as limited infrastructure, unstable internet connections, and restricted student device access were identified, these obstacles were effectively overcome through adaptive strategies by PPL students, who modified digital games into manual formats. This study confirms that innovative and adaptive learning strategies play a crucial role in enhancing student participation levels, particularly within the context of schools with limited facilities.

This study examines junior high school students’ digital morality (digital akhlak) through an analysis of Islamic Education (PAI) textbooks, focusing on the prevention of ghibah, slander/misinformation, and hate speech. The study is grounded in the growing intensity of adolescents’ online interactions, which heightens ethical risks such as online backbiting, the spread of unverified information (hoax), and degrading expressions that may harm social cohesion. The study aims to describe how the textbook represents values and prohibitions related to these issues, to analyze instructional presentation (narratives, religious evidence, learning activities, and assessments), and to assess the alignment of textbook content with a digital morality framework that contextualizes Islamic moral values for online environments. Using a library research design and content analysis of the PAI textbook as the primary document, the discussion is strengthened by recent Indonesian journal literature on digital literacy, Islamic communication ethics, and moral education for digital natives. The findings indicate that the textbook provides a strong basis for preventing ghibah through clear definitions, scriptural reinforcement, and affective messages about safeguarding others’ dignity; it addresses slander/misinformation primarily through operational tabayyun skills, including source and content verification and contextual checking; meanwhile, the prevention of hate speech is present implicitly through prohibitions against insulting, mocking, and prejudging, yet requires more explicit enrichment via contextual cases and ethical response strategies for students as bystanders. Overall, the textbook has substantial potential to foster students’ digital morality when supported by consistent classroom habituation and contextual pedagogy.  

The Bible teaches much about wisdom. It could even be said to be a book of wisdom. One of the wisdoms it teaches is honesty. The biblical definition of honesty encompasses various aspects of human life, including relationships with oneself, others, and God. Given the breadth of the discussion on honesty, the author limits the discussion to the book of Proverbs, the person and teachings of Jesus, the writings of Paul, and the story of honesty in the life of Joseph. n the Bible, honesty is a highly emphasized moral value. Honesty is not merely about not lying, but also encompasses sincerity of heart, truthfulness in words and deeds, and integrity in all aspects of life. The Bible provides numerous examples and teachings about the importance of honesty, both in human relationships and in our relationship with God. Honesty is not only about avoiding lies, but also about doing what is right and according to God's will.

Consumer protection is a crucial aspect of trade and industrial activities to ensure consumers’ rights to quality, safety, and fairness in obtaining goods. In the field of metrology, qualitative improvement of product quality plays a strategic role as a preventive effort to minimize consumer losses caused by unfair or non-compliant trading practices.

In the era of information and globalization, critical thinking skills have become an essential competence for children, including students in Islamic boarding schools. These skills include the ability to ask questions, seek and evaluate evidence, compare alternatives, and solve problems logically. Islamic boarding schools inherently provide a disciplined environment grounded in religious values that supports the development of critical thinking. However, observations at Raudlatul Hanan Islamic Boarding School reveal several challenges, such as low social sensitivity, limited constructive conflict resolution, and the absence of consistent critical thinking habits. These conditions have the potential to hinder students’ adaptability and problem-solving abilities in the future. To address these issues, a program entitled “Optimizing Children’s Critical Thinking Character through the Internalization of Socio-Environmental Sensitivity Values” was implemented using a Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach. This approach actively involved students, ustadz/ustadzah, and Islamic boarding school administrators from problem identification through planning, implementation, and reflection. The activities included character education seminars, critical discussions, group competitions, and interviews aimed at fostering social sensitivity, reducing exclusive attitudes, and strengthening critical thinking skills from an early age. The results indicate high and enthusiastic student participation throughout all activities, leading both students and administrators to hope that the program will be implemented sustainably on an annual basis.

The rapid and significant development of technology in the world has made online games a very popular form of entertainment among teenagers and students. Easy access to online games through gadgets has led to an increase in the number of teenagers playing online games. This condition has both positive and negative impacts on education, particularly on students' interest in learning. This study aims to analyze in depth the influence of online games on the lives and learning achievements of teenagers based on previous articles. We chose a literature study method for this research, and the data sources were obtained from articles relevant to the discussion. The data collection technique was carried out by reading and examining important information from the articles used. The results of the study show that online games have both positive and negative impacts on teenagers. The positive impacts can be seen in games that are educational and relevant to learning, as they can increase motivation, curiosity, and skills in teenagers. However, if played excessively and without supervision, online games tend to reduce concentration, decrease study time, and impact academic achievement, psychological well-being, and the health of adolescents. Therefore, the role of parents and teachers is crucial in controlling, guiding, and monitoring the use of online games so that adolescents can use them wisely and support the learning process wherever they are.

This study was conducted to understand how parenting styles significantly influence the process of shaping children’s behavior. The method used in this research was a qualitative approach, with data collection carried out through interviews and direct observation of participants aged 10–18 years who live in Cicendo District, Bandung. Based on the results conveyed by several participants, it can be seen that parenting styles play a very important role in children’s growth and development as well as in the formation of their emotional conditions. Parents who play a positive role such as giving more attention, communicating well, and providing full support tend to build positive responses and emotional stability in children. This helps shape a healthy personality and creates a comfortable home environment that makes children feel safe. In contrast, parents who display negative roles and parenting styles such as being harsh, lacking attention, and frequently engaging in conflict tend to make children feel pressured and lack self confidence due to unmet emotional support. As a result, children may limit their relationship with their parents, which leads to emotional instability. Overall, the discussion shows that the family is the primary foundation for children, as their growth and development are strongly influenced by how parents fulfill their roles in shaping children’s personalities, which ultimately impacts their lives in the future.

Extreme poverty represents a complex, multidimensional challenge in development that demands cohesive policy integration among various governmental tiers. The Indonesian government has established goals to expedite the eradication of extreme poverty via diverse national frameworks and initiatives, yet their success hinges on the extent of alignment between central and regional policies in areas such as strategic planning, financial allocation, and program execution. This research seeks to examine the patterns of policy alignment between central and local authorities, pinpoint the obstacles encountered during execution, and develop recommendations for enhancing collaborative efforts in tackling extreme poverty. Employing a qualitative descriptive methodology, data collection involved reviewing policy documents and development plans, complemented by discussions with relevant stakeholders at the regional level. The outcomes reveal that efforts toward policy synchronization have been made by merging national and local planning frameworks and initiatives, although persistent issues persist, such as inconsistencies in poverty statistics, jurisdictional overlaps among sectors, and inadequate inter-institutional cooperation. These insights imply that effective reduction of extreme poverty necessitates reinforced strategies for policy alignment, unified data platforms, and the adoption of cross-level and cross-sector partnership models to guarantee that measures are precisely directed, enduring, and impactful in diminishing the population affected by extreme poverty.
