The literature study approach is used to investigate the social and cultural context of Indonesia, challenges, efforts, and conflicts related to the application of Pancasila values in the context of religious people. The results show that Indonesia, as a country rich in cultural and religious diversity, faces challenges in ensuring that the values of Pancasila can accommodate such diversity without sacrificing the unity and unity of the nation. Despite concrete efforts from various parties, including the government and civil society, to build tolerance and harmony between religious communities, conflict, discrimination, and intolerance remain relevant issues. There is a gap between the idealism of Pancasila and everyday practice, which is often triggered by differences in beliefs, political tensions, and socioeconomic issues. The implications of this study point to the need for concrete steps to address these challenges, including strengthening interfaith dialogue, promoting multicultural education, and implementing the values of Pancasila in daily life. Only with mutual cooperation and commitment can Indonesia maintain diversity and strengthen unity within the framework of Pancasila as the foundation of the country.</em></p> 2025-04-16T13:28:51+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 A.

Observations revealed that students' comprehension of prayer remains theoretical and is not fully applied in daily life. Many students memorize prayers without understanding their meaning and lack consistency in performing shalat, especially outside school hours. Factors such as technology influence, social environment, heavy academic workload, and less engaging teaching methods pose challenges in raising students' awareness of the importance of prayer.&nbsp; To address these issues, the school has implemented an integrative learning method combining theory and direct practice. This approach includes utilizing the school mosque as a learning center, fostering a culture of mutual encouragement among students, and providing continuous motivation and guidance from the school. Additionally, the integration of educational technology, standardized prayer teaching methods, and academic schedule adjustments are key strategies to ensure that students not only understand prayer theoretically but also practice it with full awareness and sincerity. Through this approach, it is expected that students' spiritual character will be better developed, enabling them to make shalat an inseparable part of their lives.&nbsp; </em></p> 2025-05-01T08:54:23+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Hidayatullah, Ahmad Luviadi, Arizal Eka Putra https://ojs.cahayamandalika.com/index.php/teacher/article/view/4675 Kepribadian Anak Usia 5-6 Tahun Berdasarkan Analisa Pendekatan Belajar Behaviorisme di TK PGRI 2 Mataram 2025-05-21T02:31:24+00:00 Ni Made Sulastri nima_desulastri@undikma.ac.id <p>The world of education has developed various types of learning theories that are considered appropriate to the needs of students, behaviorist theory is considered the oldest theory or theory that is considered ancient. But in reality, behaviorist theory learning is still widely applied in Educational Institutions in Indonesia, because learning with a behaviorist theory approach is considered to be able to have a positive impact on child development. This theory is also increasingly developing into new theories and is considered better in its application in school institutions. Behaviorism theory views personality as a result of the interaction of individuals with their environment. This study aims to identify personality through analysis of observed behavior patterns and the influence of external factors. Using semi-structured interview methods and observations, this study reveals how the environment affects individual responses. The results of the study show that children's personalities are greatly influenced by examples of behavior that support the child's environment, habits that are formed through reinforcement and punishment.</p> 2025-05-21T02:31:24+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Ni Made Sulastri https://ojs.cahayamandalika.com/index.php/teacher/article/view/4219 The Impact of English Educational Content on TikTok on Audience Understanding 2025-05-21T02:54:05+00:00 Wayan Ulan Ade wayanulann3108@gmail.com Putu Ayu Asty Senja Pratiwi wayanulann3108@gmail.com <p>TikTok is a social media platform that is not only used for entertainment but also as a learning medium, including for learning English.

The findings revealed that 72% of the students scored ≥60, indicating a satisfactory mastery of question tag structures.

The problem identified is the low literacy skills of students, which are influenced by the lack of learning modules that integrate principles of gender equity and sensitivity. Additionally, gender-based literacy achievement gaps due to social stereotypes pose a significant challenge in the learning process. The research method employed is Design-Based Research (DBR) with an iterative and collaborative approach between researchers and education practitioners. Data collection was conducted through pretest-posttest assessments, attitude and perception questionnaires, observations, and interviews to evaluate the effectiveness and validity of the modules during the implementation process. Quantitative data analysis used descriptive statistics, while qualitative data was analyzed thematically. The results of the study indicate that the gender-responsive literacy module developed is able to meet academic standards and the learning needs of students in an inclusive manner. The level of acceptance of the module in terms of usage, content, and response achieved scores between 86% and 97%, which is considered very good. The module also successfully instilled critical awareness of gender issues in literacy learning and supported the development of adaptive and equitable literacy skills for all PGSD students. This study recommends expanding the scope of the module and providing ongoing training for teachers so that gender-responsive principles can be optimally applied in basic education.</em></p> 2025-05-26T04:03:31+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Kemil Wachidah, Ahmad Fathoni https://ojs.cahayamandalika.com/index.php/teacher/article/view/4566 Profesionalisme Guru Pendidikan Agama Islam di Era Digital 2025-06-02T11:37:43+00:00 Munawir munawir@uinsby.ac.id Salsa Bilassa’idah salsabilla30072003@gmail.com Ismi Nabila salsabilla30072003@gmail.com <p>Pada penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan tentang profesionalisme guru PAI di era digital.&nbsp; Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kepustakaan dengan menganalisis dari berbagai sumber tertulis berupa buku dan jurnal.
