Enhancing Teacher Professionalism through Amaliyatu-T-Tadris Practices: A Study of Final-Year Students at Kulliyyatul Mu’allimat Al-Islamiyah
This study investigates the influence of Amaliyatu-t-Tadris activities on the professionalism of prospective teachers at Kulliyyatul Mu’allimat Al-Islamiyah. The research was motivated by the increasing need for qualified teachers in Indonesia and the crucial role of Islamic boarding schools in preparing future educators. Using a quantitative approach with a regression design, primary data were collected from final-year students through a four-point Likert-scale questionnaire. The findings indicate that all items in the questionnaire were valid and reliable, with a Cronbach’s alpha of 0.923 for Amaliyatu-t-Tadris and 0.915 for teacher professionalism. The Pearson correlation test revealed a strong positive relationship between Amaliyatu-t-Tadris activities and teacher professionalism (r = 0.811, p < 0.01). The regression analysis further showed that Amaliyatu-t-Tadris accounted for 65.8% of the variance in prospective teachers’ professionalism. These results demonstrate that structured microteaching practices embedded in Amaliyatu-t-Tadris effectively enhance pedagogical competence, classroom management, communication skills, and professional ethics. The study highlights the significance of integrating practice-based training into teacher education programs in Islamic institutions to cultivate professionalism and educational quality.

Religious Character Internalization through Religious-Based School Activities
This study aims to examine the process of internalizing students’ religious character through activity-based programs at MI PAS Baitul Qur’an Gontor Ponorogo. The research employed a descriptive qualitative approach with data collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The findings reveal that the internalization of students’ religious character is carried out through several key stages: (1) discipline, by implementing “teng komando” rules, as well as a system of punishment and reward; (2) habituation, through daily routines such as congregational prayers, Qur’an memorization (tahfidz), and the 6S culture (smile, greet, salute, polite, and ready); (3) exemplary practice, by positioning teachers and all school stakeholders as role models who consistently demonstrate positive behavior; and (4) creation of a conducive environment, supported by adequate facilities and educational media such as “talking walls” and consistent enforcement of discipline among all school members. The novelty of this study lies in demonstrating that an activity-based internalization process significantly shapes students’ religious character. The outcomes include improved discipline in daily life, enhanced independence in various activities, the development of politeness in behavior and communication, the practice of honesty in interactions, and a stronger sense of personal responsibility.

Accountability and Political Responsiveness in Local Legislatures: A Case Study of the Sleman Regency DPRD
This study examines the effectiveness of the core functions of the Regional People’s Representative Council (DPRD) of Sleman Regency—legislation, budgeting, and oversight—within the framework of local governance and political accountability. Despite a clear legal mandate, the DPRD’s practical performance often reveals a discrepancy between normative expectations and administrative realities. Using a qualitative case study design, data were collected through in-depth interviews with DPRD members, secretariat officials, and civil society representatives, complemented by participant observation and document analysis of legislative outputs and performance reports. Purposive sampling and data triangulation ensured analytical depth and validity. Findings indicate that the DPRD of Sleman Regency has demonstrated progress in legislative productivity and budgetary planning, evidenced by the enactment of five key local regulations in 2024 and the proposal of twelve priority drafts in 2025. However, the council’s effectiveness remains constrained by uneven member capacity, limited substantive public participation, weak follow-up mechanisms, and inadequate institutional support, while local political dynamics continue to shape its responsiveness and accountability. The study concludes that strengthening DPRD performance requires continuous professional development, transparent digital information systems, and structured participatory mechanisms. Although this research focuses on a single regional case, it offers valuable insights into the socio-institutional factors influencing local legislative effectiveness in Indonesia and provides a foundation for comparative studies across regional parliaments.

Rasch Model Analysis of a Learning Autonomy Instrument in Digital Higher Education
This study examined the measurement and calibration of learning independence among PGSD students in digital learning using the Rasch Model. Motivated by the need for validated tools that capture readiness for autonomous learning in higher education, a survey of 40 students from the 2023 and 2024 cohorts employed a Learning Independence Test. Rasch analysis estimated item difficulty and person ability and assessed reliability and model fit. Most items showed acceptable fit and internal consistency. Item and person distributions indicated generally moderate to high independence, with meaningful individual variation. These findings suggest the instrument functions adequately and can yield actionable diagnostics for curriculum design and targeted supports that strengthen autonomy in digital environments. Psychometrically sound measurement is therefore valuable for understanding learner characteristics and informing teacher preparation, since prospective teachers must foster independence in their future pupils. The small sample limits generalization. Future research should use larger and more diverse samples and adopt longitudinal designs to track changes in learning independence over time.

Public Legal Literacy and Ownership Certainty in Land Transactions in Yogyakarta: A Socio-Legal Case Study
This study aims to analyze the level of public understanding regarding the legality of land sale transactions and its impact on the legal certainty of ownership. The focus is directed toward examining the extent to which low legal literacy contributes to the continuation of such practices and how it affects social and economic stability. The study employs a qualitative case study design conducted in Yogyakarta. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with community members, Land Deed Officials (PPAT)/Notaries, and local Land Office authorities, supported by documentation analysis of sale deeds, land certificates, and court decisions. Data analysis involved reduction, descriptive presentation, and conclusion drawing, while validity was ensured through source and theoretical triangulation. The results indicate that informal land sale practices significantly weaken legal certainty, reduce the economic value of land, and potentially trigger social conflicts. Low legal awareness emerged as the main factor driving communities to avoid formal procedures, often perceived as costly, complicated, and time-consuming. The role of PPAT and Land Offices is therefore crucial, not only in administrative functions but also as agents of legal and social education. The findings highlight the importance of a socio-legal approach that integrates law enforcement with community education to enhance legal awareness. Recommendations include establishing community-based land law clinics, utilizing digital platforms for legal outreach, and reforming land registration bureaucracy. However, the study is limited to a specific regional context, which restricts the generalizability of findings to other areas with different socio-cultural conditions, thus requiring further research.

Sociological Implications of Sentencing Disparities in Corruption Verdicts: A Case Study in Yogyakarta
This study investigates the sociological implications of corruption court decisions on local communities in Yogyakarta. While most previous research on corruption verdicts has focused on normative-legal aspects, this article addresses the gap by exploring how disparities in sentencing affect perceptions of justice, social trust, and anti-corruption norms. A qualitative case study approach was employed, analyzing two corruption verdicts (Decision No. 9/Pid.Sus-TPK/2024/PN Yyk and Decision No. 1/Pid.Sus-TPK/2022/PN Yyk). Data was collected through in-depth interviews with community leaders, legal sociologists, and journalists, as well as document analysis and participant observation. Thematic analysis was applied to identify recurring patterns in community responses and perceptions. The study reveals that sentencing disparities undermine public trust in judicial institutions, fostering perceptions of “selective justice.” Communities interpret verdicts not only as legal outcomes but also as symbolic messages about social norms. Light sentences are perceived as legitimizing corruption and eroding collective morality, while consistent and firm verdicts strengthen anti-corruption awareness. The findings highlight that court decisions play a dual role as both legal enforcement and social communication, directly shaping community engagement in combating corruption. The research is context-specific, focusing on Yogyakarta, and thus the findings may not fully generalize to other regions. However, it underscores the need for policymakers and judges to consider the broader sociological impact of verdicts to rebuild public trust and strengthen social resilience against corruption.

Illegal Sand and Stone Mining in Rejosari, Gunung Kidul: The Erosion of Community Cohesion and Cultural Values Amid Livelihood Shifts
This study aims to address a gap in literature by providing an in-depth analysis of the social and cultural dynamics of communities affected by illegal sand and stone mining in Gunung Kidul Regency. It focuses on shifts in livelihood patterns, cultural values, and adaptive mechanisms that emerge amid illegal mining activities. The central argument is that such practices foster social polarization, fragile economic dependence, and the erosion of community cohesion. Employing a qualitative ethnographic approach, the research explores the everyday lives of affected residents. Data were gathered through participant observation and in-depth interviews with key informants, including community leaders, village heads, and residents either involved in or impacted by mining. Additional supporting data were obtained from document studies. The data analysis followed an interactive process consisting of data reduction, display, and conclusion drawing. The study reveals that illegal mining has transformed the community’s economic structure from traditional agriculture to mining dependency, generating quick but unstable income. This shift has triggered social conflicts and polarization between pro- and anti-mining groups; undermining long-standing social cohesion rooted in cooperation. Furthermore, cultural values that emphasize respect for nature are increasingly eroded. Practically, the findings highlight that law enforcement alone is insufficient to address the issue. A comprehensive response should integrate local economic diversification, community empowerment, and the restoration of social cohesion.

Integration of Juridic-Sociologic Approaches in Waste Management: The Role of Government and Community Participation in Patangpuluhan Subdistrict Yogyakarta
This study explores the roles of government institutions and community participation in waste management practices in Patangpuluhan Subdistrict, Yogyakarta. It responds to the gap between formal waste management regulations and their implementation in densely populated urban areas where infrastructure and public awareness are still limited. The research argues that sustainable waste governance cannot rely solely on legal instruments; it requires active community involvement and institutional collaboration at the grassroots level. Employing a qualitative socio-legal approach, data were collected through semi-structured interviews with local government officials, community leaders, and waste bank managers, as well as through document analysis and field observations. The study investigates how national and local waste policies are interpreted, implemented, and adapted by local actors. The findings reveal multidimensional challenges, including land constraints, low compliance with regulations, and unequal access to waste facilities. Although Law No. 18 of 2008 provides a strong legal basis, its implementation in the field is constrained by the gap between “law in books” and “law in action” and the limited institutional capacity at the local level. Waste bank initiatives in several Neighborhood Units (RWs) show high participation but remain fragmented. The study’s novelty lies in its juridical-sociological lens, highlighting the interplay between normative frameworks and lived realities, and offering critical insights into the social drivers behind legal compliance in environmental governance.

Religious Narratives and Diversity on Social Media: Analyzing the Digital Role in Strengthening Pluralism
The rapid development of social media has significantly altered the way society engages with religious narratives, influencing perceptions of pluralism and moderate Islam. This study aims to examine the role of social media in shaping diversity narratives, with a particular focus on the Twitter account @AlissaWahid. Employing a content analysis approach, this research evaluates the messages disseminated through this account’s posts and their impact on public discourse regarding religious tolerance. The findings indicate that social media serves as an influential platform for fostering inclusivity, spreading messages of religious moderation, and countering radical narratives. Through the strategic use of inclusive language, visual content, and interactive engagement, the dissemination of diversity narratives becomes more effective and accessible to digital audiences. Furthermore, this study highlights the necessity of active participation from religious leaders, scholars, and civil society organizations to reinforce moderate Islamic discourse in online spaces. Strengthening these collaborative efforts is crucial to ensuring that social media continues to function as a medium for promoting harmony, pluralism, and religious coexistence in Indonesia.

Religious Coping Strategies Among Divorced Single Mothers in Garut: Managing Stigma and Patriarchal Challenges
This study examines how divorced single mothers in Garut, West Java, navigate social, cultural, and economic pressures in a society deeply rooted in patriarchal norms. It explores how religious coping strategies assist them in managing emotions, combating social stigma, and addressing gender injustice. This research employs a descriptive qualitative approach with a multiperspective framework to explore the experiences of four informants selected using purposive and snowball sampling techniques. Data were collected through in-depth interviews and thematically analyzed to identify key patterns in religious coping strategies. The study is grounded in Kenneth Pargament’s religious coping theory and Mary Wollstonecraft’s feminist theory, which provide a robust theoretical foundation. The findings reveal that religious coping strategies help single mothers cope with social and economic pressures through three main approaches. First, self-directing strategies strengthen independence and problem-solving skills. Second, deferring strategies provide emotional peace by entrusting outcomes to God. Third, collaborative coping enhances spiritual connections through prayer and dhikr. Furthermore, the reinterpretation of religious teachings plays a crucial role in challenging patriarchal norms, promoting dignity, resilience, and self-identity. These strategies not only support psychological well-being but also function as tools for empowerment and gender justice. However, this study is limited by its small sample size and localized scope, which may affect the generalizability of the findings.

Practical implications for counselors are substantial, as this approach equips them to resolve problems from a deeper Islamic perspective, ensuring solutions are aligned with religious guidance. Additionally, this integration helps develop clients' personalities to be more balanced, harmonious, and aligned with Islamic principles. This study offers a model for creating spiritually grounded counseling services, addressing both psychological and moral dimensions. By combining Ulumul Hadith with modern counseling methods, the approach becomes more effective and relevant to the needs of contemporary Muslim communities.

Strategi Sentralisasi Budaya Jawa dalam Peningkatan Kualitas Pendidikan Islam: Studi Kasus di MTs Raudhatul Muttaqien Yogyakarta
This study aims to describe, implement, and explore strategies to enhance the quality of Islamic education through the centralization of Javanese culture. The findings reveal a strong integration of local Javanese culture within Islamic educational institutions, reflected in various aspects such as architecture, curriculum, and extracurricular activities. Schools incorporate traditional Javanese arts and language, enriching students' educational experiences and deepening their understanding of cultural heritage. Yogyakarta's unique governance structure, emphasizing cultural preservation under the Sultanate model, provides a conducive environment for promoting these practices. The implications of this research are significant for policymakers and educators, demonstrating that cultural integration can enhance educational quality, increase student engagement, promote inclusivity, and strengthen cultural and religious identities. The study suggests the need for culturally responsive educational policies that leverage unique cultural assets to improve educational outcomes. However, the findings are context-specific to Yogyakarta, potentially limiting generalizability to other regions with different cultural and educational dynamics. Future research should explore the application of similar cultural integration strategies in diverse educational and cultural contexts and conduct longitudinal studies to assess the long-term impact of cultural centralization on education quality and student learning outcomes.
