This study aims to examine the role of Islamic boarding schools in shaping santripreneurs through agribusiness-based education at Al-Ittifaq Islamic Boarding School in Bandung. Islamic boarding schools, as Islamic educational institutions, not only play a role in spiritual guidance but also serve as agents of socio-economic change. The concept of santripreneurs integrates Islamic values with entrepreneurial skills, thereby producing religious, independent, and productive santri. This study uses a qualitative approach with a descriptive case study method. Data were collected in June 2025 through interviews, observations, and documentation of the pesantren leader (Kyai), two administrators who also serve as managers and business administrators of the pesantren, and three santri who are active in agribusiness activities. The results show that Al-Ittifaq Islamic Boarding School acts as a facilitator of business learning, a role model for entrepreneurship, and an educational ecosystem that allows students to learn both business theory and practice. Students are involved in the management of agriculture, animal husbandry, and product distribution, thereby forming an entrepreneurial character based on Islamic values. This research confirms that Islamic boarding schools have a strategic role in producing a generation of santripreneurs who are able to respond to the challenges of the times while maintaining their Islamic identity.

Mahmud Abdullah Noho — 2025-12-31

Traditional culture is an important means of instilling nationalistic values in the younger generation. This study aims to analyze the nationalistic values contained in the traditional Lego-Lego dance culture and describe the application of these values in local content learning at Cokroaminoto 1 Islamic Elementary School in Kalabahi. The research method used is descriptive qualitative with an ethnographic approach. Data were obtained through observation, interviews, and documentation, then analyzed in depth to find the meaning of nationalistic values in each element of the dance. The research involved 1 local content teacher, 1 principal, and 1 class consisting of 30 students as informants. Data analysis used the Miles and Huberman interactive model, which included data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results showed that nationalistic values were strongly reflected in the music and dance components, which were then internalized through contextual learning based on local culture. The implications of this study confirm that the integration of nationalistic values in local content is an effective strategy for teachers to strengthen the nationalistic character of students from an early age. The contribution (novelty) of this study lies in the use of regional arts as a pedagogical medium that not only preserves local culture but also systematically constructs the strengthening of nationalistic character in the context of basic education.

THE IMPACT OF TIKTOK ADDICTION ON ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE AMONG UNIVERSITY STUDENTS: ACADEMIC PROCRASTINATION AS A KEY MEDIATOR

Zulfa Irawati — 2025-12-31

This study investigates the relationship between TikTok addiction and academic performance among university students, with academic procrastination examined as a mediating variable. Grounded in self-escape theory, the research explores how excessive TikTok use may act as a maladaptive coping mechanism that contributes to procrastinatory behaviors, ultimately affecting academic outcomes. This study used a cross-sectional design and data collected from 287 students at Universitas Muhammadiyah Surakarta through an online questionnaire. The analysis was conducted using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The results indicate that TikTok addiction has no significant direct effect on academic performance. However, it significantly increases academic procrastination, which in turn negatively affects academic performance. The mediation analysis confirmed that academic procrastination plays a key intermediary role in the relationship between TikTok use and academic success.
