Bridging Generational Gaps in Teachers’ Digital Literacy: A Systematic Review on Educational Leadership and Performance
The rapid digital transformation in education has exposed a clear generational gap among teachers in mastering digital literacy. Younger teachers tend to navigate technology with greater ease, while senior teachers often encounter barriers that affect their confidence and classroom performance. This study aims to explore how educational leadership can help bridge this generational divide and enhance teachers’ digital competence. Adopting a systematic literature review guided by the PRISMA framework, the analysis covered studies published between 2020 and 2025 from major databases, including Scopus, Web of Science, and ERIC. The findings show that leadership practices emphasizing empathy, collaboration, and continuous learning are most effective in reducing generational gaps and fostering inclusive digital competence. However, existing frameworks rarely integrate generational diversity, leadership behavior, and performance management within one conceptual model. This study introduces the concept of Adaptive Intergenerational Leadership (AIL), a synthesis that combines transformational and adaptive leadership principles to foster bidirectional learning between digital native and digital immigrant teachers. The results contribute to educational leadership theory and offer practical implications for developing inclusive, innovative, and human centered school ecosystems in the digital era.
The Application of the Problem Based Learning (PBL) Model in Enhancing Critical Thinking Skills and Learning Outcomes of Students in the Equal Education Program
Education is an essential basic need for every individual and serves as the main foundation in the formation of quality human resources. Thru education, an individual not only acquires knowledge and skills but also internalizes moral and social values, as well as critical thinking abilities that are essential for facing life's challenges. However, the reality shows that the opportunity to obtain formal education is still not evenly distributed due to economic, social, and geographical factors. To bridge this gap, the Indonesian government organizes the Equivalency Education Program as part of the non-formal education pathway, which includes Package A, Package B, and Package C. This program aims to provide learning opportunities equivalent to formal education while also developing critical thinking skills and ensuring that students' learning outcomes are relevant to real-life needs. In practice, the implementation of equivalency education still faces various obstacles, especially in terms of teaching methods. The learning process, which tends to be conventional and educator-centered, results in low active participation and critical thinking skills among students. To address these issues, more contextual and participatory learning innovations are needed, one of which is the Problem Based Learning (PBL) model. This model emphasizes authentic problem-based learning, encouraging students to analyze, collaborate, and independently and reflectively find solutions. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with the aim of illustrating the implementation of PBL in enhancing critical thinking skills and learning outcomes of students in equivalency education programs. The conceptual review results indicate that the implementation of PBL has a positive impact on the improvement of critical thinking skills and learning outcomes in cognitive, affective, and psychomotor aspects. Thus, the application of the PBL model is considered effective and relevant in the context of equivalency education because it aligns with the principles of andragogy, contextual learning, and the development of lifelong learning.
Reading Education in The Midst of Globalisation
The purpose of this study is to observe that the value of education in the era of globalisation has shifted from education to economic education. Education, which has a noble ideal of liberating humans from a life of shackles, has become economic education with a single goal: profitability in the era of globalisation. The narrative of globalisation promotes the connectedness and interdependence between individuals and ideas, but places education within a perspective of industrial education. This study employs a sociological approach to critically and logically explain this shift, drawing on access to books, journals, academic writings, and historical manuscripts. The results of this study suggest that globalization, driven by technological advancements, has transformed education into a commodity in the industrialization process. Ultimately, the conclusion of this study is the shift in educational values brought about by technological developments, which have elevated economic education as a key educational value in the era of globalisation.

The Influence of Intrapersonal Intelligence and Learning Activity on the Learning Outcomes of Qur'an and Hadith among Madrasah Ibtidaiyah Students
This research was conducted to determine how intrapersonal intelligence and learning activity affect the learning outcomes of the Al-Qur'an Hadis subject among Madrasah Ibtidaiyah students. The background of this research is based on the importance of the role of these two factors in the success of students' learning. Intrapersonal intelligence is related to a person's ability to recognize themselves, manage their emotions, and motivate themselves to continue developing. Meanwhile, learning activity indicates the extent to which students actively participate during the learning process—such as by asking questions, engaging in discussions, or expressing opinions in class. This study uses a quantitative approach with a correlational descriptive method. The subjects of the study are all fifth and sixth-grade students of Madrasah Ibtidaiyah in the even semester of the 2024/2025 academic year, totaling 45 individuals. Data were collected thru questionnaires to measure the level of intrapersonal intelligence and learning activity, as well as thru documentation of grades to determine the learning outcomes of Al-Qur'an Hadith. Data analysis was conducted using multiple linear regression with the assistance of SPSS version 26. The research results indicate that both intrapersonal intelligence and learning activity have a positive and significant impact on students' learning outcomes. The average intrapersonal intelligence of the students is classified as high (82.44), learning activity falls into the quite active category (79.87), and the learning outcomes in Al-Qur’an Hadis are classified as good (83.26). The coefficient of determination (R²) value of 0.496 indicates that 49.6% of the learning outcomes are influenced by these two variables, while the remaining percentage is influenced by other factors outside the scope of this study. In simple terms, the better students know and motivate themselves, and the more actively they engage in learning activities, the higher their learning outcomes will be. Therefore, teachers are advised to create an interactive and reflective learning atmosphere, so that students can develop in a balanced manner—in terms of knowledge, skills, and spirituality.
