EFL Teachers' Self-Efficacy in Technology Integration: A Case Study on TPACK Implementation in Schools in Indonesia

Relly Prihatin — 2025-08-16

This study aims to explore English teachers' self-efficacy in integrating technology in the classroom as well as the application of the TPACK (Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge) framework. The study also sought the relationship between teachers' self-efficacy and TPACK application when using technology in teaching. The research subjects consisted of 50 English teachers, with three teachers selected for classroom observations and retrospective interviews. Results showed that the majority of teachers had high self-efficacy in using technology such as PowerPoint, videos, and online platforms. However, some still lacked confidence in providing digital feedback. TPACK implementation varied; two teachers optimally applied it by integrating content, pedagogy and technology for interactive learning, while one teacher was passive. There is a positive relationship between teacher self-efficacy and successful TPACK implementation. Teachers with high self-efficacy were more proactive in designing innovative learning. These findings provide important implications for teacher training and education policy. Increasing self-efficacy through technology training can improve the quality of technology-based learning.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengeksplorasi efikasi diri guru Bahasa Inggris dalam mengintegrasikan teknologi di kelas serta penerapan kerangka TPACK (Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge). Penelitian ini juga mencari hubungan antara efikasi diri guru dan penerapan TPACK saat menggunakan teknologi dalam pengajaran. Subjek penelitian terdiri dari 50 guru Bahasa Inggris, dengan tiga guru dipilih untuk observasi kelas dan wawancara retrospektif. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa mayoritas guru memiliki efikasi diri tinggi dalam menggunakan teknologi seperti PowerPoint, video, dan platform online. Namun, beberapa masih kurang percaya diri dalam memberikan umpan balik digital. Penerapan TPACK bervariasi; dua guru menerapkannya secara optimal dengan memadukan konten, pedagogi, dan teknologi untuk pembelajaran interaktif, sedangkan satu guru masih bersifat pasif. Terdapat hubungan positif antara efikasi diri guru dan keberhasilan penerapan TPACK. Guru dengan keyakinan tinggi lebih proaktif dalam merancang pembelajaran inovatif. Temuan ini memberikan implikasi penting bagi pelatihan guru dan kebijakan pendidikan. Peningkatan efikasi diri melalui pelatihan teknologi dapat meningkatkan mutu pembelajaran berbasis teknologi.

Queen Elvina Sevtivia Asrivi — 2025-08-25

This study aims to explore the implementation of the Manajemen Qolbu (MQ) concept in shaping a religious learning environment at SD Daarut Tauhiid Bandung. MQ is a spiritual-based educational approach that emphasizes the management of the heart (qalbu) as the center of moral, ethical, and spiritual awareness. Using a descriptive qualitative method, data were collected through observations, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The findings reveal that MQ is systematically integrated into daily school activities, including morning and evening dzikr, collective prayers, spiritual mentoring, and the modeling of good character by teachers. The unique Daarut Tauhiid curriculum, based on seven core pillars tauhid, manners (adab), exemplary behavior, independence, spiritual habits, integration of religious and secular knowledge, and social care supports the creation of a harmonious, inclusive, and spiritually rich learning atmosphere. MQ contributes significantly to improving student discipline, empathy, self-awareness, emotional regulation, and intrinsic motivation. Despite facing challenges such as limited time and varying levels of understanding among educators and students, the structured implementation of MQ proves to be an effective character education strategy. This research highlights MQ as a holistic and contextual solution for integrating spiritual values into formal education and offers a replicable model for other primary schools seeking to nurture students with strong religious and moral foundations.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji penerapan konsep Manajemen Qolbu (MQ) dalam membentuk lingkungan belajar yang religius di SD Daarut Tauhiid Bandung. MQ merupakan pendekatan spiritual yang berfokus pada pengelolaan hati (qalbu) sebagai pusat kesadaran moral dan akhlak. Melalui Metode kualitatif deskriptif, data dikumpulkan melalui observasi, wawancara, dan dokumentasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa MQ terintegrasi dalam berbagai aspek pembelajaran dan budaya sekolah, seperti pembiasaan dzikir, doa harian, mentoring ruhiyah, serta keteladanan guru. Kurikulum khas Daarut Tauhiid yang berbasis pada tujuh pilar utama tauhid, adab, keteladanan, kemandirian, dzikir, integrasi ilmu, dan kepedulian sosial mendukung terwujudnya lingkungan belajar yang spiritual, harmonis, dan kondusif. Penerapan MQ terbukti meningkatkan kedisiplinan, empati, ketenangan batin, dan motivasi belajar siswa. Namun, implementasi MQ juga menghadapi tantangan, seperti keterbatasan waktu dan resistensi awal dari sebagian guru atau siswa. Penelitian ini merekomendasikan pembinaan guru yang berkelanjutan dan integrasi formal MQ dalam kebijakan sekolah untuk keberlanjutan program. MQ terbukti menjadi strategi efektif dalam pembentukan karakter religius dan lingkungan belajar yang rahmatan lil 'alamin.

Ita Maulana Zakiyah — 2025-09-29

The PBL learning model in science lessons is a solution to improve critical thinking skills, learning motivation, and improve student learning outcomes in the current era. This study aims to provide in-depth information about the research of the PBL model in science learning in elementary schools, especially on the research method, focus of the study, and the theme of the study. The method used is SLR (systematic literature review). Data collection was carried out by documentation and reviewing articles about the PBL learning model in science lessons in the period 2020-2025. The data were collected from 40 articles in Google Scholar and Sinta. The results of the study show that the Based Learning learning model uses various methods, namely qualitative, quantitative, mixed methods, and research and development. The most popular method is qualitative while the least popular method is research and development. This study examines the focus of problems grouped into three, namely the impact on learning outcomes, student motivation, and student critical thinking. The results of this study indicate that most research studies on the PBL model focus on the impact on student learning outcomes, while the fewest studies discuss the impact of the PBL model on student motivation.

Islamic Religious Education (PAI) in elementary schools (SD) plays a crucial role in shaping students' character from an early age. One of the key values in Islam is the attitude of forgiveness, which needs to be taught through engaging learning methods. This study measures the effectiveness of the Damaikan (Peace Through Forgiveness) animated video in enhancing students' understanding and practice of forgiveness. The research method used is Design & Development (D&D) with the ADDIE model. Data was collected through questionnaires, observations, and validation sheets at SDN Cinanggerang II, sixth grade. The validation results show that the animated video received a rating of 92.5% (excellent) from media experts and 78.7% (good) from subject matter experts, indicating its feasibility as a learning medium. Student questionnaires showed a positive response, with an average score of 79.6%. In conclusion, the Damaikan animated video is effective in increasing motivation for learning PAI and helping students understand and apply Islamic values, particularly in fostering a peaceful life through forgiveness.
