The Role of Self-Efficacy and Religiosity in Determining Female Teachers' Resilience

Resilience is a crucial element in helping teachers manage various pressures and demands stemming from dual roles as educators and homemakers. This study aims to examine the influence of self-efficacy and religiosity on resilience, as well as to test the moderating role of religiosity in the relationship between self-efficacy and resilience. The study involved 167 female teachers from state madrasahs in Medan City as respondents. Data collection was conducted through a survey using online questionnaires employing three measurement tools: the General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSES), the Short Muslim Belief and Practice Scale (Short-MPBS), and the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale-25 (CD-RISC-25). Data analysis was carried out using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). This research offers novel insights into understanding resilience among female madrasah teachers by introducing religiosity as a moderating variable. The findings indicated that: 1) there is a positive relationship between self-efficacy, religiosity, and resilience; 2) religiosity does not moderate the relationship between self-efficacy and resilience. This study reveals that although religiosity serves as spiritual support, the dominance of self-efficacy highlights the importance of tangible actions in overcoming challenges. The study underscores the significance of building self-efficacy and provides new insights into developing support strategies for female madrasah teachers. Field data support the hypotheses.

Madrasah Teachers’ Approaches to Classroom Assessment

Since assessment holds a crucial role in the teaching and learning process, it is essential to examine teachers' approaches to assessment in their classrooms to determine whether their methods align with assessment theories and best practices. This study aimed to explore how madrasah teachers approach student assessment in their classrooms, focusing on the purpose of assessment, the assessment process, fairness in assessment, and the principles of measurement theory. The study involved 27 secondary-level madrasah teachers in an Indonesian context to illustrate their assessment knowledge and address the research gap in assessment studies for madrasah teachers. Their classroom assessment approaches were gathered and evaluated using the Approaches to Classroom Assessment Instrument (ACAI). The results indicate that madrasah teachers generally view assessment for learning as the primary purpose of their assessments, focus on the design aspect during the assessment process, adhere to standard principles of assessment fairness, and give equal importance to both validity and reliability in measurement theory. Finally, findings of this study should give valuable contribution to the body of assessment theory and become a reference for the government in improving madrasah teachers’ assessment literacy as well as their skills in assessing students’ learning.

The Phenomenon of School Dropouts in the Pujut, Mandalika SEZ: An Interpretive Phenomenological Analysis from the Perspective of Education Actors and Society

The development of the Mandalika Special Economic Zone (SEZ) in Pujut district, while driving economic growth, has raised concerns about declining school interest and high dropout rates among local students. This qualitative study, employing interpretive phenomenological methods, explores the experiences and perceptions of education actors, including the vice principal for student affairs, counseling guidance teachers, Mongge madrasah teachers, and the Head of Sukadana Village, to understand the underlying factors. Findings reveal economic constraints as a primary cause of dropout, with many students from low-income families unable to afford education. Early marriage, particularly among female students, is another significant factor influenced by economic, social, and cultural pressures. Additionally, broken homes, unsupportive social environments, the negative influence of social media, and a lack of motivation contribute to the problem. Schools have responded with counseling, parental engagement, and restrictions on mobile phone use. However, deeper issues like early marriage and broken homes necessitate broader interventions involving government policies and socio-cultural change. This research illuminates the complexity of school dropout in the Mandalika SEZ and highlights the need for a comprehensive approach engaging all stakeholders to ensure educational access and success for all students.

Self-esteem, Islamic Behavior, and Writing Assessment for Indonesian Language Madrasa Teachers: An Empirical Phenomenological Investigation

Improving students' academic achievement in Indonesian language studies at madrasas requires effective writing evaluations. This study explores how Islamic behavior and self-esteem attribution among Indonesian language teachers at Madrasas influence their approach to creating writing assessments using a phenomenological method. Through in-depth interviews with twenty teachers, the thematic analysis revealed that teachers' Islamic values provide a religious framework that shapes their understanding and application of assessment development. Teachers' evaluations incorporate moral and religious principles, reflecting on their self-worth and the intrinsic value of students' written work. Islamic behavior and the attribution of self-esteem enhance teachers' commitment to fair, reflective assessments, which ultimately support students' literacy and academic growth. The study suggests that embedding Islamic behavior and self-esteem attribution in writing assessments strengthens teacher development and student success in Indonesian language studies. Future studies could further explore the role of these factors in teacher preparation and assessment practices in Indonesian madrasas.

The research results show that there is a very significant relationship between spiritualism and materialism of madrasah teachers. The higher the teacher's spiritualism, the lower the materialism, conversely the lower the spiritualism, the higher the teacher's materialism. This research has implications for the importance of building the spiritualism of madrasah teachers so that they are not easily influenced by the strong materialism in the current era.
