Proyeksi Mutu Pendidikan Indonesia: Peluang dan Ancaman Artificial Intelligence (AI) Menuju Indonesia Emas 2045
Artificial Intelligence (AI), currently regarded as one of the key innovations in technology, in fact carries both opportunities and threats for the quality of Indonesian education in the future. This study aims to critically examine the projected quality of Indonesian education in the era of Artificial Intelligence (AI) toward Golden Indonesia 2045. Accordingly, two research questions are proposed: (1) How is the quality of Indonesian education projected in the era of Artificial Intelligence in realizing Golden Indonesia 2045? (2) What forms of opportunities and threats does Artificial Intelligence pose to the quality of Indonesian education toward Golden Indonesia 2045? This study employs a narrative literature review method with a qualitative-descriptive approach. The findings indicate that the presence of AI opens opportunities in the form of personalized learning, improved accessibility of education, automated assessment, curriculum development, and administrative efficiency. On the other hand, AI also poses potential threats, including the digital divide, technological dependency, declining teacher-student interaction, widening inequality of opportunity, and risks to data privacy and security. Accordingly, this study recommends the need for education on the ethical use of AI and the improvement of teacher quality to keep pace with technological developments.

Membangun sistem Evaluasi yang Humanis dan Adaptif Melalui Pengembangan Teknik Tes dan Non Tes Pada Pembelajaaran PAI di SMPN 02 Danau Kembar
Learning evaluation is an essential component in determining the success of the educational process, particularly in Islamic Religious Education (PAI). However, evaluation practices in many educational institutions remain predominantly focused on test-based assessments that emphasize cognitive achievement, thereby failing to comprehensively measure students' affective, spiritual, and psychomotor development. This condition reflects a gap between the ideal objectives of PAI, which prioritize character building and moral development, and the reality of assessment practices that largely concentrate on academic performance. This study aims to analyze how the development of test and non-test assessment techniques can contribute to establishing a more humanistic and adaptive evaluation system in Islamic Religious Education. The study employs a qualitative approach*using the library research method by examining relevant books, national and international scholarly articles, and educational policy documents. Data were analyzed through data reduction, data display, interpretation, and descriptive-analytical conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that integrating test and non-test assessment techniques creates a more comprehensive, objective, authentic, and student-centered evaluation system. While test techniques effectively measure cognitive achievement, non-test techniques—including observation, portfolios, self-assessment, peer assessment, reflective journals, and interviews—provide a deeper evaluation of students' character, religious attitudes, and worship practices. A humanistic evaluation approach offers constructive feedback, appreciates individual differences, and promotes meaningful, inclusive learning experiences. Therefore, integrating test and non-test assessment techniques represents an effective strategy for developing an adaptive evaluation system that supports the holistic goals of Islamic education and aligns with contemporary educational demands. These findings are consistent with recent studies highlighting the importance of authentic assessment in integrating cognitive, affective, and psychomotor competencies within PAI learning.

Implementasi Asesmen dan Tindak Lanjut Dalam Pembelajaran Tahfiz di SDN 21 Kota Pariaman
Tahfiz Al-Qur'an learning at the elementary school level faces major challenges related to limited teacher-student ratios and the diversity of students' initial abilities. This study aims to deeply explore the implementation of assessment and follow-up strategies in tahfiz learning at Sekolah Dasar Negeri (SDN) 21 Pariaman City. Utilizing a qualitative approach with a descriptive case study design, data were collected through in-depth interviews with a single tahfiz teacher. The results indicate that despite limited time and teacher ratios, learning is implemented effectively by integrating sama'i, talaqqi, tikrar, and tasmi' methods combined with the utilization of Smart TV as an interactive medium. Assessments are conducted periodically, covering fluency (hifzhon), tajwid accuracy, and articulation eloquence (fashohah). Follow-up strategies for students who do not achieve mastery are implemented through a persuasive-humanistic approach, offering flexible extended timeframes to complete targets gradually and establishing active collaboration with parents for muraja'ah at home. The novelty of this research lies in the assessment synchronization model based on students' field abilities combined with interactive technology to overcome teacher limitations. This study concludes that an approach prioritizing children's psychological comfort over curriculum targets successfully maintains the quality standards of Juz 30 memorization while sustaining students' learning motivation. This model can serve as a tactical reference for other elementary education institutions facing similar constraints.

Covid19: Efektivitas Kelas Virtual bagi Siswa Sekolah Dasar di Desa
As of March 2020, Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) reached Indonesia. From that point on, life in Indonesia changed, and public activities were suspended to prevent the spread of COVID-19. The decision by the Ministry of Education and Culture (Kemendikbud) to shift learning from in-person to virtual settings required teachers and students to adapt. In other countries and certain regions of Indonesia, this virtual learning method is not unfamiliar. However, it is a novelty, particularly in rural villages. With the emergence of this new learning method, stakeholders did not merely offer advice or issue orders to the community. Instead, they are providing efforts and solutions to address the shortcomings and ensure the sustainability of distance learning. By applying Fazlur Rahman’s theory of multiculturalism, it is hoped that developments in the field of education—particularly during this pandemic—will become even more innovative and creative. Additionally, a sociological approach is needed.

Manajemen Kesiswaan Berbasis Religius Di Madrasah Aliyah Negeri (MAN) Insan Cendekia Lombok Timur
Pendidikan merupakan aspek yang sangat penting dalam pembangunan bangsa karena tidak hanya berfungsi sebagai sarana transfer ilmu pengetahuan, tetapi juga sebagai media pembentukan karakter dan penanaman nilai-nilai moral. Pendidikan harus dilaksanakan secara proporsional dengan menyeimbangkan pengembangan intelektual dan pembinaan akhlak agar ilmu yang dimiliki peserta didik dapat bermanfaat bagi diri sendiri maupun masyarakat. Hal ini sejalan dengan pandangan Ki Hajar Dewantara yang menyatakan bahwa pendidikan dan pengajaran merupakan usaha kebudayaan serta perguruan merupakan tempat persemaian benih-benih kebudayaan suatu bangsa. Dalam praktiknya, penanaman budaya religius di sekolah telah mulai diterapkan melalui berbagai program yang mendukung terciptanya lingkungan pendidikan yang religius dan kondusif. Implementasi budaya religius tersebut diwujudkan melalui kegiatan-kegiatan bernuansa keagamaan yang selaras dengan visi dan misi sekolah sebagai upaya meningkatkan mutu pendidikan yang unggul dan berkualitas. Berdasarkan hasil wawancara dengan kepala sekolah dan wakil kepala sekolah bidang kesiswaan, pelaksanaan budaya religius memerlukan peran aktif kepala sekolah, guru, dan seluruh warga sekolah dalam mengelola kegiatan keagamaan serta membimbing peserta didik agar terbiasa menjalankan ibadah dan menerapkan nilai-nilai religius dalam kehidupan sehari-hari

Interactive Storytelling and Prosocial Helping Skills among Early Childhood Learners
Prosocial helping skills are an important part of early childhood social-emotional development. However, these skills do not always receive balanced attention in classroom practice because learning activities often focus more on academic achievement. This study aimed to examine the relationship between interactive storytelling and children’s prosocial helping skills at RA Nasyidul Ummi. The study used a quantitative correlational approach. The population consisted of 15 children, and all children were selected as the sample through total sampling. Data were collected using a structured observation sheet consisting of 6 items for interactive storytelling and 6 items for prosocial helping skills. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, validity testing, reliability testing, normality testing, linearity testing, correlation analysis, and simple linear regression. The results showed that the mean score of interactive storytelling was 15.20, while the mean score of prosocial helping skills was 14.80. The Pearson correlation was 0.948 and the Spearman correlation was 0.960, with a significance value of 0.000. Simple linear regression produced the equation Y = 2.519 + 0.808X, with an R Square value of 0.900. These findings indicate that interactive storytelling has a very strong positive relationship with children’s prosocial helping skills. Interactive storytelling can be used as a social learning strategy to help children develop care, helping behavior, sharing, and cooperation with peers.

Hubungan Permainan Sensorimotor dengan Perkembangan Synaptogenesis pada Anak Usia 5–6 Tahun
Early childhood learning still often emphasizes initial academic activities, so play experiences involving body movement and the senses do not always receive adequate space. Children aged 5–6 years need rich, repeated, and meaningful sensorimotor stimulation to support tactile responses, movement coordination, concentration, working memory, and adaptation to new stimuli. This study aimed to determine the relationship between sensorimotor play and synaptogenesis development in children aged 5–6 years at PAUD Darul Iman. This research used a quantitative approach with an associative design. All 20 children in the population were selected as the sample through total sampling. Primary data were collected using a structured observation-based questionnaire completed by parents with teacher confirmation. The instrument used a four-point ordinal Likert-type scale. The results showed that the mean score of sensorimotor play was 20.95, while the mean score of synaptogenesis development was 20.55. All instrument items were valid, with very high reliability for sensorimotor play at 0.952 and synaptogenesis development at 0.951. The normality test showed that the data were not normally distributed, so the hypothesis was tested using Spearman Rank correlation. The test result showed a coefficient of 0.972 with a significance value of <0.001. These findings indicate a positive, very strong, and significant relationship between sensorimotor play and synaptogenesis development as reflected through observable indicators of child development.

Implementasi Pembelajaran Biologi Terintegrasi Nilai-Nilai Keislaman Pada Materi Sistem Reproduksi Manusia
The integration of Islamic values in biology learning, especially reproductive system material, is a manifestation of eliminating the dichotomy between religious knowledge and general knowledge. The dichotomy or separation between general knowledge and religion is an attempt to implement secular life with a partial, not holistic, perspective. This also aims to ensure that students who receive material about biology learning, especially material about the human reproductive system, can think in a balanced way, both in terms of general Islamic knowledge. In biology learning, Islamic integration can be done using two models, namely using the Al-Qur'an integration model as a source of inspiration and the second using the Al-Qur'an as a source of confirmation. The first model uses the Al-Qur'an as an umbrella of knowledge or a source of inspiration, a reference source which is then explained by biological phenomena. Meanwhile, in the second model, critical analysis or discussion of phenomena in biology is carried out, then confirmed with the Al-Qur'an. In the sense that the findings obtained through science, in this case biology, are to clarify what is in the Al-Qur'an.

Hubungan Dukungan Orang Tua dengan Kemandirian Belajar Siswa MI NW Birrul Walidain Rensing di Era Kurikulum Merdeka
The implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum requires students to possess independent, active, and responsible learning abilities in the learning process. However, in practice, many students still demonstrate a high level of dependence on teachers and parents in completing academic tasks. One of the factors presumed to be associated with students’ learning independence is parental support. This study aimed to determine the relationship between parental support and students’ learning independence at MI NW Birrul Walidain Rensing in the 2024/2025 academic year within the context of the Merdeka Curriculum. This study employed a quantitative approach with a correlational research design. The population consisted of all students at MI NW Birrul Walidain Rensing, while the sample was selected using a simple random sampling technique. Data were collected through Likert-scale questionnaires that had been tested for validity and reliability. Data analysis techniques included descriptive statistics and Pearson Product Moment correlation analysis using SPSS. The findings revealed a positive and significant relationship between parental support and students’ learning independence, with a correlation coefficient value of 0.742 and a significance value of 0.000 < 0.05. These results indicate that higher parental support is associated with higher levels of students’ learning independence. Therefore, parental involvement plays a crucial role in supporting the success of student learning within the implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum.

Kompensasi Dan Motivasi Kerja Guru Honorer SD/MI: Systematic Literatur Review Terhadap Temuan Empiris Dan Perspektif Teoritis
Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis hubungan antara kompensasi dan motivasi kerja guru honorer SD/MI melalui pendekatan Systematic Literature Review (SLR) serta mengintegrasikan temuan empiris dengan kerangka teoritis yang relevan. Latar belakang penelitian ini didasarkan pada masih tingginya jumlah guru non-ASN di Indonesia yang menghadapi permasalahan ketidakpastian status kerja, rendahnya kompensasi, dan keterbatasan dukungan institusional yang berdampak pada kesejahteraan dan motivasi kerja. Data diperoleh dari artikel ilmiah terindeks Scopus, Web of Science, dan Google Scholar dalam rentang tahun 2015–2025. Dari 124 artikel awal, terpilih 32 artikel yang memenuhi kriteria inklusi. Analisis dilakukan melalui identifikasi tema, kategorisasi variabel, serta sintesis naratif dan komparatif. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahwa kompensasi finansial, keamanan kerja, dan dukungan organisasi memiliki pengaruh signifikan terhadap motivasi kerja guru. Rendahnya kompensasi dan ketidakpastian status kepegawaian berkorelasi dengan meningkatnya stres kerja, kelelahan emosional, serta menurunnya kepuasan dan komitmen profesional. Secara teoritis, temuan ini memperkuat relevansi teori motivasi seperti Self-Determination Theory, teori kebutuhan Maslow, dan teori dua faktor Herzberg. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa reformasi kebijakan berbasis keadilan, peningkatan standar kompensasi, serta penguatan dukungan institusional merupakan langkah strategis dalam meningkatkan motivasi kerja dan kualitas pendidikan dasar secara berkelanjutan.

The low level of public awareness and participation in waste management demonstrates the need for an educational approach that is not only technical but also social and cultural. This study aims to analyze the application of the Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD) concept in community-based waste management education at the Krapyak Peduli Sampah Community, Ali Maksum Islamic Boarding School, Krapyak, Bantul. This study used a descriptive qualitative approach with observation, interviews, and documentation methods. Data analysis was carried out through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results show that the application of the ZPD principle through social interaction, mentoring between residents, and practice-based learning can increase awareness, skills, and participation of students in waste management. The learning process takes place collaboratively through guidance from senior students, Islamic boarding school administrators, and reinforcement of local religious and cultural values. These findings indicate that a community-based sociocultural approach is effective in developing sustainable ecological behavior. Thus, the application of the ZPD concept can be a relevant educational strategy in community-based waste management.

Research and Development as the Foundation for PAI Curriculum Innovation
Islamic Education (PAI) plays a crucial role in shaping students' character, morals, and spirituality. However, the PAI curriculum is often considered inadequate in addressing the evolving needs of modern times. To address this challenge, research and development (R&D) is a critical approach for creating a more adaptive, contextual, and innovative curriculum. This article discusses the importance of R&D in the innovation of the PAI curriculum, focusing on the role of research in uncovering various issues in the practice of teaching, such as the lack of connection between the material and real-life situations, as well as weaknesses in interactive teaching methods. Through a research-based approach, it is expected that the PAI curriculum can be developed to be more functional and transformative, in line with the times and the needs of students. Additionally, this article explores the benefits, challenges, and obstacles faced in the application of R&D in the PAI curriculum, as well as the R&D models that can be used for curriculum development. In conclusion, strong research can ensure that the innovation of the PAI curriculum effectively contributes to improving the quality of Islamic education and the development of students' character.

Penerapan Teori Humanistik Abraham Maslow Dalam Pembelajaran PAI Untuk Meningkatkan Kesadaran Diri dan Tanggung Jawab Sosial
This study aims to explore the application of Abraham Maslow’s humanistic theory in the learning process of Islamic Education (PAI) to enhance students' self-awareness and responsibility. Challenges such as moral crises and individualism demand a shift in PAI instructional methods, moving from mere cognitive knowledge transfer to a more humanistic approach. The methodology employed in this study is descriptive qualitative with a library research approach. Data were collected through the documentation of relevant literature and analyzed using content analysis and source triangulation. The results of this study indicate that the application of Maslow's hierarchy of needs in PAI creates a student-centered learning environment, where the fulfillment of basic needs (physiological, safety, and love/belonging) is a prerequisite for achieving self-actualization. The integration of art therapy methods proved effective as a medium for creative expression and strengthening the internalization of religious values and social empathy. Supporting factors include the teacher's role as a facilitator and an inclusive school environment, while hindering factors include a rigid academic orientation and limited teacher pedagogical competence in humanistic approaches. This study concludes that Abraham Maslow's humanistic approach can cultivate a holistic Muslim character through a balance of emotional, spiritual, and social aspects.

Peran Teori Humanistik Carl Rogers dalam Aktualisasi Diri Peserta Didik Berkebutuhan Khusus di Tengah Krisis Mental
This study aims to analyze the application of Carl Rogers' humanistic learning theory in encouraging self-actualization of Students with Special Needs (PDBK) amidst the challenges of the mental health crisis. The main focus of the study was deaf students at the Marsudi Putra 2 Pandak Special Needs School in Bantul, D.I. Yogyakarta. This study used a descriptive qualitative method with data collection techniques through interviews, observation, and documentation. The results showed that the implementation of Rogers' three pillars—unconditional positive regard, empathy, and congruence—served as the foundation for resilience for students. Teachers at the Marsudi Putra 2 Pandak Special Needs School adopted the role of facilitators and parental figures to create a safe space that was able to minimize the gap between students' real and ideal selves. The instructional strategies used included the Maternal Reflective Method (MMR), visual methods, lip reading, and total communication aimed at enriching vocabulary and training students' emotional stability. Despite facing challenges such as student learning boredom and complex verbal communication barriers, this humanistic approach proved effective in building a positive self-concept. Integrated social support between teachers, parents, and peers is a crucial factor in directing students' psychological energies toward self-actualization and the development of fully functioning individuals.

Implementasi Pemenuhan Kebutuhan Esteem (Penghargaan) Perspektif Abraham Maslow: Studi Kasus Di Sd N 1 Bantul Yogyakarta
This research explores the urgency of psychological aspects within the primary education environment through a comprehensive analysis of the implementation of esteem needs fulfillment among students at SD N 1 Bantul, Yogyakarta. Adopting Abraham Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs as the theoretical framework, this study aims to dissect how the need for self-esteem and recognition is integrated into daily pedagogical practices. The focus of the study is directed at three main pillars: identifying the various modalities of providing rewards implemented by educators, the significance of its impact on the escalation of learning motivation and the crystallization of students' self-concept, and mapping the determinant factors that serve as systemic supports or barriers in the implementation process. Methodologically, this research employs a qualitative design with a case study approach to gain a profound understanding of psychosocial phenomena within the school environment. Data were collected through triangulation techniques to ensure the validity of the findings, encompassing non-participatory observation of classroom dynamics, semi-structured interviews with key informants (teachers and students), and curatorial documentation studies related to students' achievement records and behavior. Informant selection was conducted using purposive sampling to ensure the representation of relevant and contextually rich data. All collected data were subsequently analyzed using the Miles and Huberman interactive model, which includes the phases of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing/verification. The results of the study are expected to provide a holistic overview that the fulfillment of esteem needs is not merely about giving praise, but is a strategic instrument in shaping students' mental resilience and positive character. The findings also identify challenges such as limited pedagogical understanding regarding reward variations and family environmental factors that influence the effectiveness of strengthening students' self-concept at school.
