Abstract: This study discusses the implementation of principal management in improving students' religious character and the factors that influence the success of the implementation of principal management in improving students' religious… eligious character. This type of research is qualitative research with data analysis using MAXQDA. Data collection techniques used are observation, interviews, and documentation. Data analysis is carried out by collecting/organizing raw data (data collection), condensing data (data condensation), presenting data (data display), drawing conclusions/verification. The results of this study indicate that (1) the implementation of the principal's management in improving the religious character of students at SMA Negeri 5 Palopo is carried out through four integrated management functions, namely: (a) Planning which is realized in the preparation of routine religious programs such as Al-Qur'an literacy (15-minute tadarus), congregational prayer, and commemoration of Islamic holidays, (b) Organization is carried out by clearly dividing tasks to religious teachers as coordinators, assisted by homeroom teachers and involving the active role of OSIS and Rohis as technical implementers, (c) Implementation is carried out by integrating the program into school activities and providing direct motivation and role models to enforce religious discipline, and (d) Supervision is carried out through checking attendance at congregational prayers and providing direct reprimands to students who are less religious. (2) Factors that influence the success of this implementation include internal factors, such as the principal's leadership commitment, teacher discipline, and the availability of facilities and infrastructure, as well as external factors that include support from parents and the community. Overall, the success of the principal's management is greatly influenced by strong collaboration between all school residents and the surrounding environment.

STUDY OF PHOTOCATALYTIC HYDROGEN PRODUCTION OVER Ni-DOPED ZnO AND TiO₂ PHOTOCATALYSTS VIA CHEMICAL STABILIZATION

Frendi Maulana, Yohanes Engge
Abstract: This study synthesized Ni-doped ZnO (Ni0.05Zn0.95O) and TiO2 (Ni0.05Ti0.95O2) via immersion-assisted coprecipitation for hydrogen production. UV-Vis confirmed bandgap reduction to 2.87 eV (ZnO) and 2.82 eV (TiO2), enabling… ng visible light activity. XRD and SEM verified Ni incorporation and a significant reduction in crystal size (to 21 nm). To mitigate rapid particle sedimentation (25 min), sodium silicate was applied as a dispersant, successfully extending suspension stability to 4 hours. Notably, this chemical stabilization maintained a lower reactor temperature (49°C) compared to mechanical stirring (52°C), preventing efficiency loss due to thermal effects. Ni0.05Zn0.95O exhibited the highest photocatalytic activity, attributed to its superior Ni atomic composition. This research demonstrates that combining Ni-doping with chemical dispersion effectively optimizes both the electronic and physical properties of photocatalysts for enhanced hydrogen harvesting.

RESPONSE OF MUSLIM INTELLECTUAL GROUPS TO DUTCH COLONIAL EDUCATION IN THE EARLY 20TH CENTURY

Ahmad Sirfi Fatoni
Abstract: Islamic Education and Colonial Education are two methods to educate the Indonesian people, especially in Java. Islamic Education and Colonial Education have their own advantages for society. Islamic Education tends to be… more religious, while Colonial Education tends to be secular and liberal. Each education has a different teaching system because it has different goals and targets according to the interests of the government in power at that time. This research method uses a historical method that is based on four things as usual, namely: heuristics, criticism, verification and historiography. Because this event is a political history, the researcher uses a socio-political approach to analyze it. On the other hand, assisted by the challenge and response theory developed by Arnold Toynbe. According to this theory, culture occurs because of challenges and answers between humans and their surroundings. The results of this study indicate that the existence of racial and discriminatory Dutch colonial government education resulted in the emergence of forms of resistance in the field of education. This phenomenon results in the birth of Islamic boarding schools and private schools such as: Tebu Ireng Islamic Boarding School (1899), Tambak Beras Islamic Boarding School (1919) East Java, Krapyak Islamic Boarding School, Yogyakarta (1911), Sukamanah Islamic Boarding School, Cipasung Tasikmalaya, West Java (1930). As for private schools (private) namely Muhammadiyah School (1912), Taman Siswa (1922) and Nahdlatul Ulama (1926).

Robiahasna Ritonga, Herawati, Khaerani Harahap, Zainal Efendi Hasibuan
Abstract: Digital transformation through Artificial Intelligence (AI) offers significant potential for enhancing elementary school teacher competence, yet its implementation remains largely technical and fragmented when detached from… rom teachers’ religious and personal dimensions. This study addresses this gap by examining the integration of AI-assisted learning and Qur’anic tahsin development as a holistic model of teacher competency enhancement. Employing a qualitative case study design, the research was conducted at SD Negeri 200206 Padangsidimpuan, involving elementary school teachers, Islamic Religious Education teachers, school leadership, and facilitators of AI and tahsin training programs. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, classroom observations, and document analysis, and analyzed using an interactive analytical model with methodological triangulation. The findings reveal that the use of AI tools—such as ChatGPT, Gamma, and Canva AI—significantly improves instructional effectiveness and strengthens teachers’ pedagogical and professional competencies. Furthermore, AI-integrated Qur’anic tahsin training, particularly in makhārij al-ḥurūf and tajwīd, enhances teachers’ Qur’anic recitation quality while reinforcing their religious and personal competencies. This study contributes a value-based, integrative framework for teacher professional development that bridges digital innovation and Islamic educational values. Despite its potential, the model faces challenges related to digital literacy disparities, infrastructural readiness, and the need for sustained mentoring. The study advances scholarly discourse on ethically grounded AI integration in elementary education.

Abstract: The rapid digital transformation in education has redefined the role of teachers, necessitating the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to enhance pedagogical efficiency. This study aims to analyze the needs of primary… rimary school teachers regarding AI, describe the implementation of AI-assisted smart teaching training, and evaluate its impact on teachers' professional competence and the quality of produced instructional tools. Utilizing a descriptive qualitative approach with a field study design, the research was conducted at UPTD SD Negeri 33 Bangai. Data were collected through participatory observation, semi-structured interviews, and document analysis of teaching modules and worksheets. The subjects were selected via purposive sampling, and data were analyzed using the interactive model of reduction, display, and conclusion drawing. The results indicate that AI-assisted smart teaching training effectively shifts teachers from passive technology users to active pedagogical designers. Findings reveal a paradigm shift where teachers perceive AI as "augmenting intelligence" that strengthens rather than replaces their professional role. The instructional tools produced post-training showed significant improvements in systematic alignment and the integration of Higher-Order Thinking Skills (HOTS). Grounded in adult learning and experiential learning theories, this practice-based model fosters greater learning autonomy and reflective practice. This study contributes empirical evidence for the primary education context, suggesting that human-centered and pedagogically-driven AI integration is a vital strategy for teacher professional development in the digital era.

Abstract: Abstract: One of the IT applications utilized by the community is Microsoft Office. This application helps various parties in supporting the learning process in schools and is used by various parties for office work needs&#8230; s in processing words, numbers and presentations. Understanding and mastering this application is a basic ability that must be owned by every individual in the present. As is the case with students at SMA Letjen Haryono MT while studying at school. However, the use of Office has not been maximized by them. They were only introduced to Microsoft Office applications but did not understand how to use them. Therefore, students need to be equipped with additional learning that focuses on using Microsoft Office as a medium to assist student learning and also prepares students to take advantage of this application in the future. The features available in Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, and Microsoft Power Point are also less known by students. Departing from this, it is necessary to equip students with learning about Microsoft Office applications. Learning activities provide a range of 77% through questionnaires filled out by students which means that the training provided provides good knowledge benefits to the 28 students who take part in the training. The target planned by the implementation team was achieved where students were assisted in understanding and learning to use Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel and Microsoft Power Point applications.            Keywords: education; information technology; microsoft office   Abstrak: Salah satu penerapan TI yang dimanfaatkan oleh masyarakat adalah Microsoft Office. Aplikasi ini membantu berbagai pihak dalam mendukung proses pembelajaran di sekolah serta dimanfaatkan berbagai pihak untuk kebutuhan pekerjaan kantoran dalam pengolahan kata, angka serta presentasi. Pemahaman dan penguasaan aplikasi ini merupakan kemampuan dasar yang wajib dimiliki oleh tiap individu di masa sekarang. Seperti halnya dengan murid-murid di SMA Letjen Haryono MT selama belajar di sekolah. Tetapi, penggunaan Office belum dimaksimalkan oleh mereka. Mereka hanya diperkenalkan aplikasi Microsoft Office tetapi kurang memahami cara penggunaannya. Oleh karena itu, maka murid perlu dibekali dengan pembelajaran tambahan yang berfokus pada penggunaan Microsoft Office sebagai media untuk membantu pembelajaran murid dan juga mempersiapkan murid manfaatkan aplikasi ini di masa mendatang. Fitur-fitur yang tersedia di Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, dan Microsoft Power Point juga kurang diketahui oleh murid-murid. Berangkat dari hal tersebut, maka perlu melengkapi murid dengan pembelajaran akan aplikasi Microsoft Office. Kegiatan pembelajaran memberikan nilai range 77% lewat kuesioner yang diisi murid yang berarti pelatihan yang diberikan memberikan manfaat pengetahuan yang baik kepada 28 murid yang mengikuti pelatihan. Target yang direncanakan tim pelaksana tercapai di mana murid-murid terbantu dalam memahami dan mempelajari penggunaan aplikasi Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, dan Microsoft Power Point.
