Anti-Corruption Education in the Indonesian School and Social Context: An Integrative Review
type: item
description: Corruption in Indonesia is a systemic issue affecting political, bureaucratic, and educational spheres. Anti-Corruption Education (ACE) is recognized as a key non-penal strategy to foster integrity and prevent corruption in the long term. However, research often separates pedagogical effectiveness from critical discourse analysis, creating a gap in integrative understanding. This study employs an integrative review approach to synthesize empirical and conceptual literature on ACE in Indonesia. Data were drawn from 29 national and international journal articles published between 2016-2025, selected based on criteria related to policy, curriculum design, implementation, and evaluation. Thematic analysis identified patterns across curriculum models, pedagogical strategies, assessment practices, and socio-political discourse. Findings indicate that ACE implementation spans all educational levels, integrating values through Civics and Islamic Education, experiential learning, and digital media. Empirical evidence shows a positive correlation between ACE and integrity attitudes, yet practices remain dominated by individual-moral approaches with limited attention to structural and ideological dimensions. ACE has evolved into systematic policies but risks becoming symbolic morality without critical pedagogy and governance reform. Strengthening ACE requires ecosystem-based integration across family, school, and community, standardized curricula, educator training, and synergy with legal enforcement to ensure transformative impact.

Analysis of AI Anxiety in Madrasah Ibtidaiyah Prospective Teachers’ Readiness
type: item
description: The rapid integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in education has generated both opportunities and psychological challenges, notably AI Anxiety (AIA), particularly among pre-service primary school teachers who shape future generations’ technological attitudes. This study investigates how Information and Communication Technology (ICT) experience, attitudes, and competence predict AIA levels among pre-service teachers enrolled in the PGMI program at UIN Raden Mas Said Surakarta. Using a quantitative, correlational design, data were collected from 141 participants through validated AI Anxiety and ICT Role questionnaires using google form. Descriptive analysis revealed a moderate overall AIA level (M = 4.65), with high external, career-focused anxiety notably Job Replacement (M = 5.56) and low learning-related anxiety (M = 2.65). Correlation and regression analyses indicated that technical and cognitive ICT skills significantly and negatively predicted AIA, identifying Technical Skills as the strongest mitigating factor (B = -0.221, p = 0.030). These findings affirm that practical ICT proficiency reduces AI-related fears by enhancing digital self-efficacy. The study underscores the necessity for curriculum redesign in teacher education to emphasize applied technical competence and gender-sensitive training. Strengthening ICT capability can transform AI apprehension into confidence, preparing future educators for AI-integrated learning environments.

Literature Analysis of Fostering Islamic Character through Cooperative Learning Strategies in the Context of Islamic Religious Education
type: item
description: This study aims to analyze the contribution of cooperative learning strategies in fostering students' Islamic character in the context of Islamic Religious Education (PAI). In an increasingly complex era of education, the teaching of Islamic values such as honesty, responsibility, help, and tolerance is not enough to be done through the one-way lecture method. An approach is needed that actively engages learners in meaningful and collaborative learning experiences. To answer this, this study uses a library research method with a descriptive-qualitative approach, which examines various scientific literature from SINTA and Scopus indexed journals in 2017–2025. Data were analyzed through a thematic study on the application of cooperative learning models such as Jigsaw, Think-Pair-Share, Group Investigation, and Numbered Heads Together in the context of PAI learning. The results of the study show that cooperative strategies significantly support the formation of students' Islamic character through social interaction, group cooperation, and directed reflective communication. Islamic values are not only conveyed theoretically, but also practiced in learning dynamics. Teachers play the role of value facilitators who encourage the realization of learning based on manners and deliberation. The implications of this study emphasize the importance of professional training for PAI teachers to master a cooperative approach pedagogically and contextually. In addition, schools and educational institutions need to support the implementation of this strategy by providing time, space, and evaluation systems that encourage the integration of character values in the learning process. Cooperative strategies have proven to be relevant as a transformative approach in character-based Islamic education.

Development of Barcode-Based Pop-Up Books in Elementary School
type: item
description: Students' understanding of abstract concepts such as the life cycle of living beings often poses a challenge at the elementary level, especially in Grade III. Learning processes that rely heavily on textbooks and verbal explanations tend to be less engaging and difficult for students to grasp. This study aims to determine the effect of pop-up book media on third-grade elementary students' understanding of the life cycle material. The method used is Research and Development (R&D), involving three stages of trials: one-to-one, small group, and field test, with a total of 22 students at Public Elementary School 81 Palembang. Validation was conducted by media experts, material experts, and education practitioners. The validation results indicated that the pop-up book media was highly feasible, with an average score above 82%. Meanwhile, the trial results showed a significant improvement in students' understanding, with average scores reaching 93.3% in the one-to-one and small group stages, and 89.2% in the field test. In conclusion, the pop-up book media is effective in enhancing students' understanding of the life cycle concept and is suitable for use as an engaging and interactive learning tool.
