ANALISIS OF GROSS AND NET ENROLLMENT RATES IN PRIMARY EDUCATION IN SULAWESI : CHALLENGES AND STRATEGIC DIRECTIONS FOR IMPROVING EDUCATIONAL ACCESS
Full text linkThis study aims to analyze the trends and disparities in the Gross Enrollment Rate (GER) and Net Enrollment Rate (NER) in primary education across the Sulawesi region from 2014 to 2024, and to examine their relationship with the Human Development Index (HDI). Using a descriptive quantitative method, the research employed secondary data from the Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS) and UNESCO Institute for Statistics (UIS). Data analysis showed that all six provinces in Sulawesi experienced an increase in educational participation and human development, with North Sulawesi achieving the highest HDI growth (from 69.96 to 75.03), while Gorontalo remained below the regional average (65.17 to 71.23) due to infrastructural and socio-economic constraints. The average Gross Enrollment Rate exceeded 100%, and the Net Enrollment Rate ranged between 91–99%, reflecting broad access yet persistent efficiency issues such as grade repetition and age mismatch. The study concludes that economic capacity, infrastructure, and local policy alignment significantly influence educational equity. Strengthening data-based planning, inclusive support for marginalized groups, and improving teacher quality are recommended strategies to enhance meaningful participation and achieve Sustainable Development Goal 4 (Quality Education)
OBJECT OF ISLAMIC EDUCATION THEORY BASED ON COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
Full text linkThis study aims to examine the object of Islamic educational theory based on a community approach by tracing the historical and conceptual roots of critical education, as well as its relevance in contemporary social, political, and cultural contexts. Islamic education from a critical perspective is understood not only as a process of knowledge transfer, but also as a means of liberation and human empowerment from various forms of structural, ideological, and cultural oppression. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with a literature study method, which examines relevant national journals indexed by Sinta 2 and international articles (2020–2025). The analysis was carried out using the interactive model of Miles and Huberman, including data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results of the study indicate that critical education in Islam has a strong theological basis, rooted in the values of amar ma'ruf nahi munkar and the principle of tahrīr al-insān (human liberation). Islamic education is understood as a process of spiritual and social emancipation that fosters reflective awareness, builds moderation, and strengthens the cultural identity of the community. Furthermore, Islamic education serves as a political product, a means of cultural resistance, and a preserver of just and civilized local values. Thus, the theory of community-based Islamic education integrates spirituality, rationality, and social awareness in shaping people who are faithful, knowledgeable, and civilized
RELATIONSHIP AND DIFFERENCES BETWEEN SCIENCE, PHILOSOPHY, RELIGION
Full text linkThe study of the relationships and differences between science, philosophy, and religion is an attempt to understand the epistemological foundations that shape human civilization. Science relies on rationality and empirical observation in seeking objective truth, while philosophy serves as a critical reflection on the nature of knowledge, existence, and life values. Meanwhile, religion provides a transcendental dimension through revelation as a source of absolute truth that cannot be fully grasped by human reason. The relationship between the three is complementary; science explains natural and social phenomena, philosophy provides a rational and methodological basis, and religion guides the moral and spiritual direction of human life. However, differences arise in the sources of truth and the methods of attaining itscience relies on empiricism, philosophy on reason, and religion on revelation. This study concludes that the integration of the three can produce a complete and balanced worldview between the rational, ethical, and spiritual dimensions of humankind

Full text linkThis study aims to analyze the strategic formulation of education at Sekolah Tinggi Agama Islam (STAI) Al Badar Cipulus, focusing on how Islamic values are integrated into modern strategic management principles to achieve institutional sustainability and competitiveness. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, data were collected through interviews, documentation, and observation involving institutional leaders directly engaged in the strategic planning process. Data analysis employed Miles and Huberman’s model, including condensation, display, and conclusion drawing to identify key themes in vision mission formulation, strategy selection, and institutional alliances. The findings show that the formulation of vision, mission, and strategic goals (VMSG) at STAI Al Badar is conducted through a participatory mechanism grounded in the values of Ahlussunnah wal Jama’ah An-Nahdliyah, emphasizing moderation, inclusiveness, and adaptability. The institution implements a combined differentiation and cost-efficiency strategy while upholding Islamic work ethics of amanah (trustworthiness) and ihsan (excellence). Furthermore, program diversification and strategic alliances through the establishment of a Campus Owned Business Entity (BUMK) and collaborations with other institutions strengthen financial sustainability and institutional reputation. The study concludes that the success of STAI Al Badar Cipulus lies in its ability to integrate spiritual values with professional management, providing a model for adaptive and value-based strategic management in Islamic higher education institutions
TECHNOLOGY INTEGRATION AND DIFFERENCES IN PAI TEACHING APPROACHES: A COMPARATIVE STUDY BETWEEN URBAN & RURAL SCHOOLS
Full text linkThis study aims to analyze the integration of information technology in Islamic Religious Education (PAI) learning and compare the differences in teaching approaches between schools in urban and rural areas. The background of this research is based on the rapid digitalization of education, which has not been fully accompanied by equal access to technology and improvements in the digital competencies of educators. This study uses a qualitative-descriptive approach with a comparative study method through observation, interviews, and documentation in two schools with different environmental characteristics. The results show that schools in urban areas have a more optimal level of technology utilization, such as the use of online learning platforms, interactive media, and digital applications to support the PAI learning process. In contrast, schools in rural areas still rely on conventional methods such as lectures and face-to-face discussions due to limited technological facilities and network infrastructure. Nevertheless, the learning approach in rural areas is considered more contextual and effective in shaping the religious character of students. This study concludes that optimizing technology integration in PAI learning must be adapted to local social, cultural, and infrastructure conditions, accompanied by improving teacher competency and developing Islamic learning models that are in harmony with advances in digital technology
AUGMENTED REALITY TECHNOLOGY-BASED PAI LEARNING MODEL: POTENTIAL AND CHALLENGES IN MODERN ISLAMIC EDUCATION
Full text linkThe rapid development of digital technology is driving the world of education to continuously adapt, including in the teaching of Islamic Religious Education (PAI). Technology-based innovations such as Augmented Reality (AR) provide new opportunities to deliver more interactive, contextual, and engaging learning for students. Through AR integration, abstract religious concepts can be visualized in three dimensions, making them easier to understand and internalize. This study aims to analyze the potential, capabilities, and challenges of implementing AR in PAI learning as part of efforts to modernize Islamic education in the digital era. The method used is a literature study with a descriptive qualitative approach through a review of various journals, scientific articles, and relevant previous research results. The results show that the application of AR can increase student interest in learning, strengthen understanding of spiritual values, and create meaningful and enjoyable learning experiences. However, the implementation of this technology still faces several obstacles such as limited digital infrastructure, a lack of technological literacy among PAI teachers, and the unequal readiness of Islamic educational institutions to integrate technology into the curriculum. Therefore, teacher training, policy support, and the development of AR content that aligns with Islamic values are needed for optimal and ethical implementation
