INOVASI PEMBELAJARAN BERBASIS DIGITAL UNTUK MENINGKATKAN MOTIVASI BELAJAR SISWA DI ERA 5.0
Transisi dari Industri 4.0 menuju Society 5.0 menandai perubahan paradigma mendasar dalam lanskap pendidikan global, berpindah dari otomatisasi masif menuju pendekatan yang berpusat pada manusia (human-centric) di mana teknologi berperan sebagai mitra integratif. Terlepas dari pesatnya adopsi perangkat digital, kesenjangan signifikan masih terjadi antara ketersediaan teknologi dan keterikatan psikologis siswa, yang sering kali memicu "kelelahan digital". Narrative review ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pergeseran paradigma motivasi belajar baik intrinsik maupun ekstrinsik melalui integrasi ekosistem digital yang holistik di era 5.0. Sintesis komprehensif dilakukan terhadap literatur dari database bereputasi termasuk Scopus, Web of Science, dan Google Scholar, dengan fokus pada interaksi antara teknologi pendidikan dan psikologi belajar selama satu dekade terakhir.Temuan menunjukkan bahwa lingkungan pembelajaran personal yang berakar pada Self-Determination Theory (SDT) secara signifikan meningkatkan otonomi dan efikasi diri siswa, sehingga menumbuhkan motivasi intrinsik yang berkelanjutan. Namun, studi ini mengidentifikasi risiko "ekuilibrium gamifikasi", di mana imbalan ekstrinsik yang superfisial seperti lencana dan papan peringkat dapat merusak pembelajaran mandiri jika tidak diseimbangkan dengan kedalaman pedagogis. Lebih lanjut, fleksibilitas ekosistem digital menawarkan alternatif yang lebih unggul dibandingkan kekakuan model tatap muka tradisional dengan mendorong ekspresi identitas yang cair dan agensi kreatif. Pencapaian potensi penuh Society 5.0 memerlukan pergeseran dari digitalisasi administratif menuju pedagogi adaptif yang memprioritaskan kesejahteraan psikologis dan keterlibatan aktif.

TRANSFORMATION OF MORAL VALUES IN FILM ADAPTATIONS OF CLASSIC ENGLISH NOVELS
English classic novels have long been recognized as important sources of universal moral values. However, with the decline in the consumption of classical literature, film adaptations have emerged as a crucial medium for conveying these values ​​to contemporary audiences. This study examines the transformation of moral values ​​in film adaptations of English classic novels, identifying patterns of change (continuity, modification, and omission) and the factors influencing them. Using a multidisciplinary approach,narrative review and multidisciplinary analytical framework of adaptation theory, ethical criticism, and cultural studiesThis study finds that film adaptations often retain universal values ​, modify them to suit contemporary sensibilities, and eliminate or soften harsh social criticism. Factors such as historical and cultural context, audience reception, directorial ideology, and cinematic limitations play a significant role in this transformation process. This research contributes to adaptation studies by expanding the focus to the moral dimension and enriching ethical criticism by analyzing the ethical implications of film adaptations. The results of this study highlight the complexities of cultural reinterpretation and the ethical responsibilities of re-presenting classic narratives in the modern era.

THE IMPACT OF COLLABORATIVE LEARNING ON STUDENTS' HISTORICAL UNDERSTANDING IN SOCIAL STUDIES
Traditional history instruction often faces challenges in deeply engaging students, tending to focus on memorizing facts rather than developing conceptual and interpretive understanding. To address this, innovative approaches such as Collaborative Learning (CL) are crucial. This semi-systematic narrative review explores empirical evidence regarding the impact of CL on students' historical understanding in Social Studies, comparing it with traditional teaching methods. The literature indicates that CL significantly improves students' factual, conceptual, and interpretive understanding through social interactions, discussions, and project-based activities. CL has also been shown to strengthen critical and analytical thinking skills, enabling students to analyze historical events from multiple perspectives. The effectiveness of CL is moderated by factors such as student motivation, critical thinking skills, group dynamics, and teacher facilitation. While CL demonstrates positive outcomes, this review identifies significant research gaps, including a lack of longitudinal studies, a limited focus on interpretive understanding, a lack of concurrent quantitative and qualitative comparative studies, and the need for contextualization in developing countries. This review contributes to collaborative learning theory and Social Studies pedagogy by outlining the mechanisms by which CL influences historical understanding and providing practical implications for educators and curriculum developers.

This study uses a descriptive analytical approach with a field research type (field research), through interviews, observations, and documentation in several private MTs: MTs Ibadurrahman Mutttahida, MTs Ar-Rahman Kaju, MTs Yapis Pattiro Bajo, MTs Al-Zaky Pattiro Sompe, and MTs Al-Mubarak.The results of the study show that the resilience of honorary teachers is not only reflected in Grotberg's theory (I Am, I Have, I Can), but also strengthened by Islamic values, namely patience, gratitude, trust, brotherhood, sincerity, and mujahadah an-nafs.The challenges they face include diverse student characteristics, administrative and technological demands, limited physical and logistical resources, and financial constraints. However, this resilience has had a positive impact on the quality of learning, as evidenced by the design of Lesson Implementation Plans (RPPs), creative use of media, varied teaching methods, development of extracurricular activities, and implementation of student assessments.This study concluded that the greater the challenges faced, the stronger the resilience of honorary teachers, aligning with Islamic teachings that life's trials strengthen faith. Thus, honorary teachers are able to demonstrate professionalism, commitment, and consistency in carrying out their duties.

EXPLORATION OF THE ROLE OF ISLAMIC EDUCATIONAL VALUES IN THE PROCESS OF INDIVIDUAL SOCIAL MOBILITY IN THE BUGIS BONE SOCIETY
This study explores the role of Islamic educational values in shaping social mobility within the Bugis Bone community. Using an exploratory qualitative approach through interviews, participant observation, and documentation, the research highlights how values such as honesty, responsibility, hard work, and a strong learning ethic are internalized in family, education, and society. These values serve as cultural capital that drives individuals’ upward mobility, particularly through education and religious roles. Findings show that MI and TPA teachers, young preachers, muezzins, mosque administrators, and other leaders play a strategic role in shaping character and spirituality from childhood to adulthood. Islamic education not only fosters moral and spiritual teachings but also supports vertical mobility through character building, leadership, and involvement in social-economic institutions. The study concludes that strengthening adaptive Islamic education is essential to sustain just, ethical, and Qur’an-based social mobility in the Bugis Bone community.

INTEGRATION OF AUGMENTED REALITY TECHNOLOGY IN MATHEMATICS LEARNING: IMPACT ON CONCEPTUAL UNDERSTANDING
Mathematics learning often faces significant challenges due to the abstract nature of its concepts, causing difficulty in understanding and anxiety in students. Conventional methods have proven ineffective in addressing this issue, prompting the exploration of pedagogical innovations. This study aims to explore the effectiveness of Augmented Reality (AR) integration in mathematics learning on students' conceptual understanding compared to conventional methods. Using a thematic synthesis approach, this systematic literature review analyzes articles.peer-reviewedA study from Scopus, Web of Science, ERIC, and Google Scholar (2013–2025) compared AR with traditional learning. The results showed that AR significantly improved conceptual understanding, particularly in visual-abstract topics such as three-dimensional geometry and functions, through interactive visualization and reduced cognitive load. However, its effectiveness varied depending on instructional design, technological readiness, and institutional support. The conclusions emphasize that AR is not simply a visual tool, but rather an innovation capable of supporting cognitive processes and experiential learning. Practical implications emphasize the need for planned AR integration and adequate teacher training to maximize the potential of this technology in improving the quality of mathematics learning.

HYBRID LEARNING AND COMMUNICATION PATTERNS OF RELIGIOUS TEACHERS IN IMPROVING STUDENTS' UNDERSTANDING AT MAN 1 BONE
This study explores the implementation of hybrid learning and the communication patterns of religious teachers in enhancing students' understanding at State Islamic Senior High School (MAN) 1 Bone. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation, and analyzed with reduction, presentation, and conclusion techniques. Findings reveal that hybrid learning, which integrates technology, models, and approaches, fosters diverse learning methods that motivate students and enhance comprehension. Teachers’ two-way and multi-directional communication, both face-to-face and via digital platforms (WhatsApp, Google Classroom, Zoom), supports open and participatory interactions, positively influencing understanding. Positive impacts include higher student engagement, easier access to materials, and stronger interpersonal relationships, though challenges remain in internet connectivity, teachers’ technological readiness, and limited emotional interaction online. The study highlights the need for teacher training in digital pedagogy and communication, alongside infrastructure support, to optimize and sustain hybrid learning.

MEASURING TEACHER WELFARE: A STUDY OF PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT FACTORS
Teacher well-being is an essential factor in ensuring the quality of basic education. However, changes in education policy and the complexity of professional demands often lack adequate systemic support for teachers. This research aims to address the need for a more comprehensive understanding of teacher well-being, particularly in relation to professional development. The study focuses on four key aspects: the appropriateness of training programs, performance rewards, transparency in career development, and institutional support. This study adopted a qualitative descriptive approach. Data collection was conducted through a survey of 300 elementary school teachers, in-depth interviews with teachers, principals, and education officials, as well as documentation and administrative observations in the Talang Padang District. Thematic analysis was applied to identify patterns in teachers' perceptions of their well-being, which were then validated through triangulation between various data collection techniques and participants. The research findings revealed that most teachers considered the training programs provided to be less suited to classroom needs, career development mechanisms were less transparent, and administrative support from the government was very limited. The lack of teacher involvement in the policy planning and evaluation process also exacerbated the situation. The expected output of this study is the formation of a conceptual and empirical basis that supports the formulation of a more participatory teacher professional development policy, based on real needs, and capable of improving teacher welfare comprehensively, both economically and professionally.
