This study aims to analyze the influence of the implementation of UM Green Campus program on students’ ecological citizenship awareness at Universitas Negeri Malang, with energy citizenship as a mediating variable. The research uses a quantitative approach with a descriptive-explanatory design. Data were collected using a Likert-scale questionnaire distributed to 415 respondents selected through proportional random sampling. Data analysis employed a path analysis model using SEM-PLS method. The results show that the direct effect of Green Campus implementation on ecological citizenship awareness is not statistically significant, with a T-statistic value of 1.308 and a P-value of 0.191 (> 0.05). However, the effect of energy citizenship on ecological citizenship is significant, as indicated by a T-statistic of 17.224 and a P-value of 0.000.

Education is the main foundation in the formation of character and quality of human resources throughout the world. However, the development of technology, especially artificial intelligence (AI), has presented new challenges in the world of education, especially in maintaining the academic integrity of students. The convenience offered by AI is often used unethically, such as in plagiarism or manipulation of academic assignments. This phenomenon encourages the importance of an alternative approach that does not only rely on policy and supervision, but also instills strong moral values. This study examines the relevance of the Islamic educational psychology approach in strengthening the academic integrity of students in the AI era. This approach offers solutions based on Islamic values such as muraqabah (awareness of Allah's supervision), muhasabah (self-evaluation), and the habituation of noble morals. The study was conducted using a library research method by analyzing literature related to academic integrity, AI technology, and Islamic educational psychology, including the thoughts of Imam Al-Ghazali. The results of the study show that the Islamic values taught by Al-Ghazali are very relevant in overcoming the challenges of academic integrity caused by the development of AI technology. The principle of muraqabah helps students understand the ethical implications of their academic actions, while muhasabah encourages self-reflection to improve behavior. In addition, the habituation of values such as honesty and responsibility provides a long-term solution in shaping students' characters. This conclusion emphasizes the importance of integrating Islamic values into the higher education curriculum to create an academic environment with integrity and ethics amidst the advancement of modern technology.
