Transformasi Supervisi Pendidikan Islam: Dari Paradigma Otoriter Menuju Kolaboratif-Humanis

Ariyanto Ariyanto — 2026-06-02

Islamic education supervision plays a strategic role in improving educational quality through the professional development of teachers. However, supervision practices in various Islamic educational institutions remain largely influenced by a traditional paradigm that is authoritarian, inspection-oriented, administrative, and focused on fault-finding. This condition reduces the effectiveness of supervision in strengthening teacher professionalism and may generate resistance, weaken motivation, and limit teachers’ creativity. In addition, a gap remains between the modern concept of humanistic and collaborative supervision and its implementation in educational practice. This study aims to examine the transformation of the Islamic education supervision paradigm toward a collaborative-humanistic supervision model and to analyze the integration of Islamic values in its implementation. This study uses a library research method with a descriptive qualitative approach through a review of books and scholarly articles related to Islamic education supervision. The findings indicate that Islamic education supervision has shifted from a control-based approach toward a professional development model that is more humanistic, democratic, participatory, and reflective. The collaborative-humanistic approach is considered relevant to contemporary Islamic education because it positions teachers as professional partners rather than objects of inspection. Clinical supervision also emerges as an effective model for improving learning quality through dialogical and reflective processes. The integration of the values of amanah, ihsan, musyawarah, and islah strengthens the distinctive character of Islamic education supervision by ensuring that supervision is not only directed toward competence improvement but also toward teachers’ moral and spiritual development. This study contributes theoretically to the development of Islamic education supervision literature and provides practical implications for supervisors, school leaders, and Islamic educational institutions in implementing supervision that is collaborative, humanistic, reflective, and grounded in Islamic values.

Islamic Religious Education (PAI) is oriented not only toward the transmission of knowledge about Islamic teachings, but also toward the formation of students’ personality and religious behavior. However, PAI learning for autistic students requires specific strategies because they have characteristics such as communication barriers, limited social interaction, and a tendency toward concrete and visual thinking. This study aims to examine PAI learning strategies in shaping the religious behavior of autistic students. This study used a qualitative approach with a library research method through a review of relevant literature on PAI learning strategies, the characteristics of autistic children, and the formation of religious behavior. The results of the review show that effective learning strategies for autistic students in PAI learning include an individual approach, the use of visual media, the provision of simple and gradual instructions, positive reinforcement, and the creation of a structured and consistent learning environment. These strategies need to be implemented based on learning principles that are structured, patterned, programmed, consistent, and continuous. These findings affirm that PAI teachers have a central role as educators, facilitators, motivators, and evaluators in supporting the formation of religious behavior among autistic students. The conclusion of the study shows that adaptive and consistent PAI learning strategies can help autistic students develop religious behavior in accordance with their abilities and learning characteristics. The implications of this study provide theoretical contributions to the development of inclusive PAI learning studies, as well as practical implications for teachers in designing learning that is more individual, visual, structured, and oriented toward the formation of individuals who are faithful, pious, and noble in character.

Perbanyakan Tanaman Macadamia (Macadamia integrifolia) dengan Teknik Kultur Jaringan Secara In Vitro di UPTD Balai Sertifikasi dan Perbenihan Tanaman Hutan (BSPTH) Dinas Kehutanan Provinsi Sumatera Barat

Desi Dewantari — 2026-06-15

The macadamia plant (Macadamia integrifolia) is a high-quality nut-producing commodity with significant economic value; however, conventional propagation still faces limitations in producing superior seedlings in large quantities that are uniform and sustainable. This internship activity aimed to study the procedures for in vitro macadamia tissue culture, from the preparation of Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium, sterilization of explants, tools, and materials, incubation, to subculture. The activity was carried out at the UPTD Balai Sertifikasi dan Perbenihan Tanaman Hutan (BSPTH) Dinas Kehutanan Provinsi Sumatera Barat from January 5 to February 15, 2026. The explants used were young shoots of macadamia plants grown on MS medium supplemented with the plant growth regulator BAP. A total of 81 explants were observed during the culture process. The observations showed that 34 explants (41.98%) grew successfully without contamination, whereas 47 explants (58.02%) experienced fungal and bacterial contamination as well as browning. The high level of contamination was presumed to be related to the presence of endophytic contaminants, the suboptimal sterilization protocol, and the condition of explants originating from open field conditions. Browning can be managed through the addition of antioxidants, such as PVP, activated charcoal, and ascorbic acid, to the medium. This activity confirms that tissue culture has the potential to become an alternative method for macadamia propagation, but its success is highly dependent on the optimization of explant sterilization and the control of tissue browning. The implications of this activity point to the need for implementing staged sterilization and conditioning mother plants in a greenhouse to improve the success of macadamia micropropagation in subsequent studies.

Perkembangan Hukum Ekonomi Syariah Pasca Reformasi di Indonesia

Muhammad Yusuf — 2026-06-24

The development of sharia economic law in Indonesia after the Reformasi era has shown significant growth, particularly through the transformation from law living in society (living law) into positive law within the national legal system. This study aims to analyze the dynamics of regulation and the direction of reformulating sharia economic law within the national political configuration after the Reformasi era. This study examines the development of sharia economic law regulations, the integration of Islamic socio-political ideas into the national legal system, and the need to renew legal materials to make them more applicable and oriented toward public welfare. The results of the study show that the more conducive political climate after the Reformasi era has encouraged the positivization of sharia economic law, as reflected in the enactment of Law Number 10 of 1998, Law Number 21 of 2008, and the expansion of the authority of the Religious Courts through Law Number 3 of 2006 to adjudicate sharia economic disputes. These findings show that political reform plays an important role in strengthening the legal legitimacy of sharia economic law as part of the national legal system. The conclusion of the study affirms that strengthening sharia economic law legislation in the future requires comprehensive codification through re-examination (i‘adah al-nadhar) and the development of legal materials that go beyond the limits of school-of-law unification so as to be more responsive to societal needs. The implications of this study provide theoretical contributions to the development of the legal politics of sharia economics as well as practical recommendations for policymakers in formulating regulations that are applicable, inclusive, and oriented toward public welfare.

Andalusia dalam Perspektif Sejarah Kritis: Menelaah Dinamika Politik, Intelektual, dan Kemasyarakatan Islam di Spanyol

Fatimah Fatimah — 2026-06-24

The study of Islamic civilization in Spain is important for understanding the dynamics of Andalusia’s development, glory, and decline more comprehensively through the interconnection of political, intellectual, and social aspects. This study aims to analyze the political, intellectual, and social dynamics of Islam in Spain through a critical historical perspective in order to understand the factors that influenced the development of Andalusian civilization. This study used a qualitative approach with a library research design. Data were obtained through documentation studies of various scholarly sources, including books, journal articles, and relevant academic documents, then analyzed using content analysis techniques through the stages of data organization, interpretation, and synthesis. The results of the study show that the advancement of Islamic civilization in Andalusia was supported by political stability, the development of scholarly traditions, and a society capable of managing diversity in a relatively harmonious manner. Conversely, the weakening of political unity, the decline of intellectual activity, and the reduction of social cohesion contributed to the decline of this civilization. The conclusion of the study affirms that the development of a civilization is the result of multidimensional interaction among political, intellectual, and social factors, and therefore cannot be explained through a single dimension alone. The implications of this study contribute to the development of Islamic historical studies through a critical historical approach and affirm the importance of governmental stability, the strengthening of scholarly culture, and the management of social diversity in supporting the sustainability of civilization.

Dony Agus Prasetyo — 2026-06-24

The transformation of 21st-century education demands learning innovation that can improve students’ motivation, engagement, and learning outcomes. One relevant approach is the gamification learning model, namely the application of game elements in a learning context to create a more engaging, interactive, and meaningful learning experience. This study aims to examine the concept, characteristics, implementation steps, benefits, as well as the strengths and weaknesses of the gamification learning model in the learning process. This study uses a library research method by analyzing various relevant scholarly literature on gamification in education. The results of the review show that gamification can increase students’ intrinsic and extrinsic motivation through the use of game elements, such as points, badges, leaderboards, levels, rewards, and challenges. Gamification also encourages active participation, collaboration, healthy competition, and students’ critical thinking skills. The implementation of gamification can be carried out through various digital media, such as Kahoot, Quizizz, Wordwall, Educandy, Gimkit, and barcode scanners, adjusted to the learning objectives. Although it has various advantages, the implementation of gamification requires careful planning, technological readiness, and appropriate learning management so that the learning orientation does not shift merely toward the achievement of rewards. The conclusion of the study affirms that gamification can serve as an innovative learning model alternative that is relevant to the characteristics of students in the digital era. The implications of this study indicate that gamification contributes to improving the quality of learning processes and outcomes through active, contextual, healthy competitive, and meaningful learning experiences.

Rekonstruksi Konsep Kesiapan Menikah dalam Perspektif Psikologi Pendidikan Islam: Integrasi Kematangan Spiritual, Emosional, dan Sosial Menuju Keluarga Sakinah

Dony Agus Prasetyo — 2026-06-24

The phenomenon of increasing divorce rates, household conflicts, and low readiness among couples in entering married life indicates that readiness for marriage cannot be understood merely as readiness in terms of age, economy, or administration. This study aims to reconstruct the concept of readiness for marriage from the perspective of Islamic Educational Psychology through the integration of spiritual, emotional, and social maturity as the foundation for forming a sakinah family. This study uses a library research method with a qualitative-descriptive approach. Data were obtained from the Qur’an, Hadith, psychology literature, Islamic educational psychology, and previous research findings relevant to readiness for marriage, then analyzed using content analysis techniques to formulate a comprehensive conceptual construction of readiness for marriage. The results of the study show that readiness for marriage from the perspective of Islamic Educational Psychology is a condition of individual maturity that includes three main dimensions, namely spiritual maturity in the form of the quality of faith, piety, and understanding of the purpose of marriage; emotional maturity in the form of the ability to manage emotions, resolve conflicts, and build healthy communication; and social maturity in the form of the ability to carry out family roles, adapt to the social environment, and take responsibility for household life. The integration of these three dimensions produces a more holistic model of readiness for marriage than Western psychological approaches, which tend to be oriented toward individual aspects. The conclusion of the study affirms that readiness for marriage needs to be built through a balance of spiritual, emotional, and social dimensions as the basis for forming a sakinah, mawaddah, wa rahmah family. The implications of this study indicate the importance of strengthening premarital education based on Islamic Educational Psychology as a preventive effort to build family resilience and reduce the risk of household conflict.
