Character education in the digital era is essential for shaping students' personalities. Through educational media, character teaching can be more creative and interactive. This study aims to explore effective types of educational media for fostering positive character in students and to evaluate implementation challenges. Using a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) and data mining with the Publish or Perish software, 30 articles met the inclusion criteria for analysis with keywords: (effectiveness) AND ("character education" OR "positive character development") AND ("educational media" OR "technology in education") AND (student). Findings identify types of media supporting character education, assess their effectiveness, and outline challenges in application. Study limitations include a focus on English articles, certain media types, and limited field studies. Future research should explore further integration of technology in character education and conduct field studies to understand implementation.

School leadership as a discipline continues to recognise the important role of transformational and instructional leadership models (TILM) in enhancing teaching and learning in schools. This leadership model has proven effective in creating a supportive school environment, even in the face of challenges. This study aims to explore how TILM can improve instructional outcomes in schools. Using a qualitative approach and a case study design, the research gathered insights into the experiences and perceptions of participants. Eight individuals were purposively selected from a school, and data was collected through semi-structured interviews. Thematic analysis was employed to identify patterns and themes in the data. The findings indicate that transformational and instructional leaders establish and communicate clear visions and goals to foster collaboration and improvement. However, challenges such as resistance to change and increased workloads can hinder the achievement of these visions and goals. Additionally, while professional development and training empower educators, their effectiveness largely depends on how well they equip teachers to apply theory to practice. These findings highlight the significant role that transformational and instructional leadership plays in enhancing instructional practices within schools. The research suggests that schools should prioritise the implementation of the TILM model to improve teaching and learning outcomes. Ultimately, this study contributes to a deeper understanding of the TILM model's impact on enhancing learning outcomes in educational settings.

Salah satu tujuan Sekolah Sukma Bangsa yaitu membentuk komunitas belajar yang mandiri, cerdas dan berkeadaban. Hal ini senada dengan visi dan misi sekolah sekolah yang menciptakan lingkungan pendidikan yang positif dan berkelanjutan bagi warga belajar. Perpustakaan sebagai salah satu sarana pendukung disekolah yang juga memiliki tujuan dan komitmen yang sama sebagai upaya mengembangkan keterampilan peserta didik dengan membentuk sebuah komunitas. Komunitas merupakan wadah atau kumpulan individu yang mendiami lokasi tertentu dan tujuan dan kepentingan yang sama. Wadah bagi peserta didik dalam lingkungan sekolah khususnya perpustakaan dengan tujuan mengembangkan program perpustakaan dinamai dengan Library Volunteers (LiVo). LiVo (Library Volunteers) sebagai community service dan menjadi agen perpustakaan dalam upaya mewujudkan gerakan literasi sekolah yang bersinergi dengan program sekolah. LiVo dibentuk bagi peserta didik yang memiliki keinginan dengan kegiatan perpustakaan dan bersedia menjadi relawan perpustakaan. Dalam merancang kegiatan komunitas ini melalui beberapa tahapan seperti perencanaan kegiatan, panduan kegiatan, sosialisasi kegiatan, tes tulis, wawancara, pengumuman, pelantikan sampai dengan bimbingan juga pelatihan. Target peserta kegiatan ini dikhususkan kepada siswa kelas X yang dengan sukarela membantu di perpustakaan. Peran LiVo dalam melakukan aktivitas diperpustakaan seperti pelayanan, shelving, pengolahan koleksi, bedah ruang perpustakaan dan pengabdian masyarakat. Dengan adanya kegiatan ini berdampak positif bagi peserta didik dan memberikan manfaat seperti bertanggung jawab, mandiri dan bersosialisasi selain itu juga mendapat pengetahuan tentang pengelolaan manajemen perpustakaan. Tentunya dalam pelaksanaan kegiatan terdapat kendala misalnya belum ada ketelitian terkait layanan sirkulasi, melabel koleksi dan kesalahan dalam melakukan shelving. Solusi untuk mengatasi kendala tersebut dapat di lakukan dengan melakukan bimbingan secara rutin, partisipasi Library Volunteers dalam bertanya dan peran aktif pustakawan dalam meningkatkan kompetensi komunitas. Program ini dapat dijadikan pedoman bagi sekolah lain guna memajukan perpustakaan. Dengan melibatkan peserta didik menjadi bagian perpustakaan maka program pengembangan perpustakaan dapat berjalan dengan program sekolah akan menjadi lebih baik. Â Kata Kunci : Peran Library Volunteer, Community Service.

The digitalization of education has transformed the learning and school management landscape, requiring adaptive leadership to ensure the effective implementation of technology. However, many school principals still rely on administrative and transactional leadership styles, which do not fully support innovation and digital adaptation. This study aims to analyze the impact of transformational leadership on improving teacher performance in increasingly digitalized school environments. A literature review was conducted to examine research related to transformational leadership, educational digitalization, and factors influencing teacher performance. The findings indicate that transformational leadership plays a crucial role in fostering a conducive environment for teachers to adapt to technology, enhance work motivation, and optimize the effectiveness of digital-based learning. However, challenges such as disparities in access to digital infrastructure and low levels of technological literacy remain major obstacles to implementation. Therefore, policies are needed to support the development of transformational leadership in schools, enhance teachers' capacity in utilizing technology, and provide adequate infrastructure. This study provides valuable insights for school principals, policymakers, and stakeholders in designing more innovative and technology-responsive leadership strategies in the education sector. Keywords: Digitalization of education, transformational leadership, teacher performance, school management, educational technology
