EXPLORING THE VALUES OF LOCAL WISDOM OF THE COMMUNITY AS A SOURCE OF SOCIAL SCIENCE LEARNING: MENGGALI NILAI-NILAI KEARIFAN LOKAL MASYARAKAT SEBAGAI SUMBER BELAJAR ILMU PENGETAHUAN SOSIAL
No full textThis study is grounded in the importance of integrating local wisdom values into Social Studies (IPS) learning to create contextual, relevant, and character-oriented education. Conventional Social Studies instruction in Indonesia often remains theoretical and detached from students’ social and cultural realities. Therefore, this research aims to identify the values of local wisdom embedded in Indonesian communities that are relevant to Social Studies learning and to analyze how these values can be effectively implemented in classroom practices. This study employs a qualitative approach using a literature review method. Data were collected from scientific articles, books, research reports, and educational policy documents related to local wisdom and Social Studies education. The data collection technique involved documentation, while data analysis consisted of reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing to synthesize key findings across sources. The results indicate that local wisdom values such as mutual cooperation (gotong royong), deliberation (musyawarah), honesty, and social concern are highly relevant to the objectives of Social Studies education. These values can be incorporated into learning through ethnopedagogical, contextual, and project-based approaches to enhance students’ social awareness, responsibility, and cultural identity. The study concludes that integrating local wisdom into Social Studies learning not only strengthens students’ character development but also contributes to cultural preservation and sustainable community development

CRITIQUE OF THE CONCEPT OF GENDER FEMINIST INTERPRETATION: A REVIEW OF CONTEMPORARY INTERPRETATIONS: KRITIK KONSEP GENDER PENAFSIRAN FEMINIS: TELAAH TAFSIR-TAFSIR KONTEMPORER
No full textThis thesis aims to examine and critique the concept of gender in feminist interpretations of the Qur’an through a comparative (muqarran) study of contemporary exegeses. The study’s background highlights a shift in the meaning of “gender” from a biological category of sex to a social construct that can alter perceptions of a person’s sex, and the impact of this shift on the interpretation of Qur’anic verses concerning women specifically issues of leadership (Qur’an, an-Nisaʾ 4:34), polygyny (an-Nisaʾ 4:3), and inheritance distribution (an-Nisaʾ 4:11). The author analyzes contemporary tafsirs as an effort to clarify and counteract distortions in the interpretation of these Qur’anic verses related to the concept of gender. This research uses a qualitative method with a library-based approach and comparative (muqarran) analysis to contrast different interpretations. The study maps the methods and interpretive tendencies of feminist exegetes such as Amina Wadud, Zaitunah Subhan, and Nasaruddin Umar, and compares them with contemporary tafsirs including Tafsīr al-Munīr by Wahbah az-Zuhailī, Tafsīr al-Azhar by Buya Hamka, and Tafsīr al-Misbāḥ by Quraish Shihab. The findings identify several critiques of feminist interpretations of the gender concept: (1) feminist readings consistently emphasize that women are discriminated against by men in Islamic teachings and the Qur’an—portraying Islam as perpetuating patriarchal culture—which may create the misconception that Islam is discriminatory toward women; (2) there are misconceptions about the concept of gender from an Islamic perspective, such as treating gender as a form of relativism that precludes absolute truth, and using the gender concept to justify sexual deviations (e.g., the increasing visibility of LGBT cases); and (3) several negative social impacts of feminist exegesis on Muslim communities, for example: declining marriage rates due to women’s reluctance to accept male leadership in the household, widespread rejection and moves to prohibit polygyny, and resistance to Qur’anic inheritance rules. The thesis concludes by underlining the need for critical reading of feminist gender concepts in Qur’anic interpretation and for comparing them with other contemporary tafsirs. Such balanced readings—attending both to text and context—can correct conceptual and practical deviations in the discourse on gender among Muslim communities, and prevent Islam from being perceived as discriminatory toward women. Islam, in fact, upholds the dignity and worth of every human being, both male and female, and is rahmatan lil-ʿālamīn
SYSTEMATIC REVIEW (SLR) ON THE IMPACT OF INDUSTRIAL CLASSES ON THE JOB READINESS OF VOCATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATES
No full textThis study aims to deeply analyze the role of the implementation of industrial class programs in Vocational High Schools in improving hard skills, soft skills, and graduates' work readiness through a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach. The study was conducted using the PRISMA framework and utilized the Publish or Perish database to select relevant articles. A rigorous selection process resulted in eight primary Indonesian-language articles that met the inclusion criteria for comprehensive analysis. The study results indicate that research on industrial classes remains relatively limited, with a significant increase in publications only occurring after 2022. The effectiveness of this program is influenced by several important factors, such as close partnerships between schools and industry, curriculum alignment with workplace standards, educator competency, facility availability, and ongoing training and internships. However, challenges such as limited resources, curriculum synchronization, and suboptimal industry commitment remain major obstacles to its implementation. Overall, the findings of this study confirm that industrial classes play a strategic role in developing students' technical and non-technical skills, while also serving as a bridge between education and the workplace. This program has significant potential to strengthen the competencies and increase the competitiveness of vocational high school graduates in the modern industrial era

No full textThis study examines the dynamics of the indigenous people of Ternate in the process of the 2024 North Maluku Governor Election. The focus of the research is directed at how customary structures, genealogical relationships, cultural values, and the role of indigenous leaders affect political orientation and voting behavior. The research method used is a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques through in-depth interviews, direct observation, and analysis of relevant documents. The results of the study show that the indigenous people of Ternate play a significant role in shaping the map of political contestation through customary mechanisms, kinship solidarity, and the use of local identity symbols. Political support is not only built on rational considerations, but is also related to emotional and historical ties rooted in sultanate traditions, soa structures, and the influence of bobato and informal figures. This study concludes that the political dynamics of the indigenous people of Ternate reflect a blend of traditional values and modern political practices, which as a whole make an important contribution to the local democratic process in North Maluku in the 2024 gubernatorial election
