At SMP Negeri 17 Malang City, the principal, student representatives, PPKn teachers, and a number of students served as data sources. Data collection methods included observation, interviews, and documentation. The collected data includes both primary and secondary sources. We used both formal and unstructured interviewing methods. This study's data analysis process included three steps: data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion/verification. We also used triangulation methods to assess the validity of the data. Pre-field, fieldwork, involvement during data collection, and data analysis are the phases of the study process. To define Pancasila ideals and learn how to apply them using the cooperative learning model at SMP Negeri 17 Malang City, this research set out to ascertain the role that PPKn instructors play in doing so. The study's findings demonstrated that instructors have a responsibility to care for, acknowledge, and counsel pupils who lack motivation or discipline in addition to imparting knowledge. To prevent such issues, it is recommended that future research focus more on the role PPKn instructors play in boosting students' enthusiasm to study and selecting learning models that fit the infrastructure and facility requirements.

The low level of student learning activity is often found in school learning activities, which has an impact on poor learning outcomes. This study aims to examine the significant comparison of learning activities and physics learning outcomes of vocational high school students using the cooperative learning models STAD (Student Teams Achievement Division) and TGT (Teams Games Tournament), as well as to describe student responses after the implementation of both models on the topic of energy and its changes. This research is a true experimental study with a posttest-only control group design. The population in this study consisted of 186 students, and the sample was determined using a cluster random sampling technique. Data collection methods included observation, tests, questionnaires, interviews, and documentation. The classical assumption test used was the normality test, followed by statistical analyses using the Independent Sample T-test and the Mann-Whitney U-test. The results of the analysis of student learning activity data using the Independent Sample T-test showed a Sig. (2-tailed) value of 0.699 > 0.05, while the analysis of learning outcome data using the Mann-Whitney U-test showed a Sig. (2-tailed) value of 0.806 > 0.05. These results indicate that there is no significant difference between the two learning models in terms of their effect on student learning activities and physics learning outcomes. In addition, the analysis of student responses showed that the implementation of the STAD and TGT models received a very good response. Thus, it can be concluded that while there is no significant difference between the two models, both are effective in generating student interest and positive engagement in learning physics.

The expository learning strategy in Islamic Religious Education (PAI) remains relevant as a classical Islamic scholarly heritage but requires creative transformation to address digital-age challenges. This article examines the implementation of expository strategies through literature study, analyzing philosophical foundations, effectiveness, contemporary challenges, and innovation models. The research reveals that expository strategies are effective for normative PAI materials but face complex challenges including shifting cognitive patterns of digital natives, decentralization of knowledge authority, and technological disparities. Various innovative models (interactive, contextual, multimedia, reflective) offer solutions by integrating traditional expository strengths with modern approaches. The study concludes that successful implementation requires paradigmatic reconstruction through "pedagogical ijtihad" balancing Islamic scholarly authenticity with 21st-century learning needs. PAI teachers must master three core competencies: depth of religious knowledge, pedagogical sophistication, and technological literacy. 

This research is motivated by the reality in the field that shows the low skills of writing explanatory texts of students in grade V of SDN 23 Balai Naras, Pariaman City. This is because teachers do not develop learning models and media and teachers still have not implemented three things that are the basis for learning to write, namely pre-writing activities, during writing, and post-writing so that students are less interested in learning to write. This study aims to describe the improvement of explanatory text writing skills using the Think Talk Write cooperative model in grade V students of SDN 23 Balai Naras, Pariaman City. This type of research is Classroom Action Research (CAR) using qualitative and quantitative approaches. This research was conducted in two cycles, each cycle has stages of planning, implementation, observation, and reflection. The subjects in this study were teachers and grade V students totaling 25 people consisting of 14 males and 12 females. The results of the study showed an increase, in the teaching module in cycle I obtained an average value of 89.06% Good (B), then increased in cycle II with an average value of 96.87% very good (SB). The assessment of the teacher aspect in cycle I obtained an average value of 85% Good (B), increasing in cycle II with an average value of 95% very good (SB). The assessment of the student aspect in cycle I obtained an average value of 85% Good (B), increasing in cycle II with an average value of 95% very good (SB).

This study aims to analyze the role of environmental education in raising ecological awareness and to identify the supporting and hindering factors in its implementation. Using a qualitative approach, data were collected through literature reviews, interviews, and observations at both formal and non-formal educational institutions. The findings indicate that environmental education plays a significant role in shaping environmentally friendly awareness and behavior among learners. It encourages a deeper understanding of ecological issues and fosters a sense of responsibility toward the environment. However, in practice, the implementation of environmental education still faces various challenges. The main obstacles identified include limited resources, a shortage of educators with specific competencies in environmental topics, and a lack of policy support from both government and educational institutions. On the other hand, practice-based learning methods—such as field activities, environmental projects, and collaborations with local communities—have proven more effective in enhancing active participation and engagement among students. The main contribution of this study is to provide insights into optimal strategies for the implementation of environmental education, along with recommendations for policymakers to improve its effectiveness through curriculum strengthening and innovative teaching methods. These findings also serve as a foundation for developing more contextual and applicable learning models. For future research, it is recommended to broaden the scope of the study by examining the effectiveness of environmental education in various socio-economic contexts and exploring the use of digital technologies in environmental learning.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) in learning can serve as a tool for students to acquire knowledge. However, the understanding and use of AI in education still face various challenges. Some universities have started integrating AI learning into their curricula, but its implementation remains limited and uneven across different institutions. Additionally, the level of AI literacy among students in Indonesia is still relatively low. Adequate AI literacy is crucial for students to optimize the use of this technology without excessive dependence and to understand its ethical implications.This research aims to assess students' understanding of AI literacy and explore how AI literacy education can be integrated with the European model. A mixed-method approach is used in this study, combining quantitative research through questionnaires and qualitative research through interviews. The results indicate that students in Indonesia have a fairly good understanding of AI literacy. However, several challenges remain, including students' dependence on AI and ethical issues related to its use.Therefore, collaboration among various stakeholders, including universities, the government, and industry, is essential to enhance students' AI literacy skills. Efforts can include training programs, providing access to AI resources, and adopting AI-based learning models that have been implemented in Europe. Through these measures, it is expected that students' AI literacy will improve, supporting the advancement of technology-based education in Indonesia.

This study aims to examine the implementation of a differentiated learning model in improving maritime English language competency among maritime college students in Indonesia. The background of this study is based on the maritime world's need for graduates with good English language competency, especially in professional and technical contexts. The approach used was a mixed method, namely a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods within a classroom action research framework implemented over two learning cycles. Data were collected through English language competency tests, observations, and in-depth interviews. The results showed a significant increase in all aspects of maritime English competency. The highest increase occurred in speaking skills at 44.38%, while the lowest increase was in maritime vocabulary comprehension at 30.25%. After the implementation of the differentiated learning model, 78.33% of students were in the "Good" and "Very Good" competency categories. Although in the initial stages of implementation there were challenges in students' adaptation to learning methods that differ from conventional learning, these obstacles were successfully overcome through a project-based learning strategy. This strategy is considered the most effective because it is able to provide an authentic context and approximate the real conditions in the maritime workplace. Thus, it can be concluded that the differentiated learning model has proven effective in improving students' maritime English language competency. This study recommends the broader implementation of similar models in English language learning programs at maritime institutions.

Learning that is still dominated by teacher-centered approaches tends to result in passive student participation and low learning outcomes. This study aims to compare the effectiveness of the Socio-Scientific Problem-Based Learning (SSPBL) model and the Stimulus Environment Problem Solving (SEPS) model in improving student learning outcomes in the Ecology course. The research employed a quasi-experimental design involving two groups of fourth-semester Biology Education students at Universitas Muhammadiyah Surakarta in the even semester of the 2023/2024 academic year. Each group consisted of 20 students; one was taught using the SSPBL model, and the other using the SEPS model. Data were analyzed using the independent sample t-test and effect size analysis.The results showed that the SSPBL group achieved significantly higher cognitive learning outcomes than the SEPS group in both Cycle I (sig. = 0.041) and Cycle II (sig. = 0.049). The effect size results further confirmed the high effectiveness of the SSPBL model, with values of 2.846 (Cycle I) and 3.413 (Cycle II), categorized as "high." These findings indicate that the SSPBL model is more effective in improving learning outcomes, particularly in developing higher-order thinking skills through the integration of scientific concepts and socio-scientific issues. This study recommends the implementation of the SSPBL model in science education to foster deeper conceptual understanding and critical thinking among students.

Islamic boarding schools are faced with two important problems in adapting to the demands of the times, namely the problem of developing Islamic boarding school governance without abandoning tradition and the Islamic boarding school's identity in producing a generation with good morals. The research objectives are to identify the management of Sufistic curriculum development in Islamic boarding schools including; 1) Curriculum planning, 2) Curriculum organization, 3) Curriculum implementation, 4) Curriculum evaluation and 5) Impact of Islamic boarding school management in developing the Sufistic curriculum at Al-Istiqomah Islamic Boarding School and Al-Falah Biru Islamic Boarding School, Garut Regency. The research framework departs from George R. Terry's (1973) management theory, namely four management functions, namely: 1) Planning, 2) Organizing, 3) Actuating, 4) Controlling. The curriculum theory uses the Ralph W curriculum development model. Tyler curriculum development is carried out in systematic stages, namely; Objectives, Selecting Learning Experiences, Organizing Learning Experiences, Evaluation. Developing the Islamic boarding school curriculum has an impact on the morals of the students, as according to Sheikh Musthafa Al-Ghalayini, the implications of Sufistic moral values contribute to shaping behavior. This study uses a qualitative approach using the Ethnography method. Data collection techniques are carried out through interviews, observations and documentation analysis. The data analysis technique uses the Miles and Huberman analysis technique. While the validity test is carried out with data validity by conducting tests; credibility, transferability, dependability, and confirmability. The results of the study found that the management of the development of the Islamic boarding school curriculum in preparing a generation with Sufi morals: First, the Islamic boarding school curriculum is included in the traditionalist model of the school, namely by showing its traditional and school character. Second, the organization of the curriculum content consists of the contents of the curriculum, data, concepts, generalizations, and subject matter at the Islamic Boarding School. Third, Curriculum development is categorized as a grass roots model where there are initiatives and efforts coming from below, namely ustadz and Islamic boarding schools in developing a curriculum that is designed by themselves to produce a generation with Sufi morals. Fourth, Curriculum evaluation refers to the Objective Model Evaluation model (objective model) carried out at the end of curriculum development, this assessment activity is often called summative evaluation. Fifth, The impact of curriculum management on the level of morals is shown by the nature of istiqomah, self-control, prioritizing Islamic and basyariyah brotherhood, tolerance, honesty, sincerity, istiqomah, patience, gratitude, politeness and helping each other. Sixth, Traditionalist Hypothetical Management Model of the School.

In the beginning, the Natural and Social Sciences (IPAS) Learning Activities in Grade III of Elementary School 116/X Lambur II used a learning model that was not varied, especially still using conventional learning models, so that the learning process in the classroom did not use technology at all. The lack of use of learning models that were less varied, coupled with learning media that only relied on books, made students feel bored and less interested in participating in learning. This research is a Classroom Action Research (CAR) which was carried out in two cycles consisting of planning, implementation, observation and reflection. The subjects in this study were Grade III students of Elementary School 116/X Lambur II. Data analysis techniques: data reduction, data presentation, and conclusions or verification, while data sources: resource persons, documentation, and teaching and learning processes. The results of this study indicate that there is an increase in students' creative thinking skills. Starting from the pre-cycle of learning activities that have not used the Game Based Learning model, student learning outcomes are only 5 out of 20 students who are said to have completed with a percentage of 20% with an average score of 49. Furthermore, from the results of the cycle I action, the minimum score has not been reached, so the study was continued in the cycle II action by making several improvements from the results of the cycle I reflection. From the results of the cycle II action, there was an increase where 18 out of 20 students were declared complete with a percentage of completion of 90% and obtained an overall average score of 85.
