Development of Education Management Competency Measurement Instruments with an Outcome-Based Education

2025-08-12T22:04:11+07:00

This research aims to develop instruments used in measuring educational management competencies based on lecture outcomes. The method used is R&D with a quantitative approach. This research was conducted in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The sample used was 715 students. Content validity was tested using the Aiken V index formula. Construct validity was tested using Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA). The results of this study indicate that the content validity coefficient is > 0.8, indicating that the statement items are valid. The KMO value (0.982) is > 0.05, indicating an adequate model fit. Scree Plot meets the unidimensional criterion, that is, it can be used to measure 1 dominant factor. Statistics X2 467, RMSEA 0.042, SRMR 0.030, CFI 0.990, NFI 0.989, meaning goodness of fit. The recommendation of this research is to use it to measure educational management competencies among educators worldwide, with diverse regional characteristics. So, in the long term, learning quality improves because it has a quality measurement tool. In practice, this instrument enables educators and institutions to evaluate and strengthen management skills, thereby improving the quality of learning and institutional performance. Academically, it advances research in educational measurement by providing a psychometrically sound instrument that supports broader implementation of OBE.

Integrated Laboratory Governance for Sustainable Islamic Higher Education: A Multi-Site Study of State Islamic Universities in Indonesia

2026-05-15T09:49:01+07:00

Laboratories play a pivotal role in supporting teaching, research, and community engagement in higher education. However, laboratory governance in Indonesian State Islamic Higher Education Institutions remains fragmented due to inconsistent quality assurance practices, limited integration of laboratory functions with research, and shortages of qualified technical personnel. Existing laboratory management frameworks, including the Laboratory Quality Management System (LQMS), ISO 9001, and ISO/IEC 17025, primarily emphasize technical compliance while offering limited guidance on integrating institutional quality assurance with the distinctive values of Islamic higher education. This study develops an integrated and sustainable laboratory governance model by synthesizing the Internal Quality Assurance System (IQAS), international quality standards, and Islamic ethical principles. Employing a qualitative research and development design with a multiple-case study approach, the study collected data from 110 participants across three Indonesian State Islamic Higher Education Institutions through semi-structured interviews, observations, document analysis, and user satisfaction assessments. Data were analyzed using inductive thematic analysis, cross-case synthesis, and methodological triangulation. The findings reveal two dominant governance configurations—integrated laboratories and study program-based laboratories—each with complementary strengths but facing common challenges in technical staffing, research utilization, and continuous quality improvement. Based on these findings, the study proposes the Integrated Sustainable Laboratory Governance Model (ISLGM), integrating the 12 Quality System Essentials, IQAS, ISO 9001, ISO/IEC 17025, and Islamic values into a unified governance framework. The model advances laboratory governance theory by contextualizing quality management within Islamic higher education and provides an evidence-based framework for strengthening laboratory quality, research productivity, institutional resilience, and sustainable governance.

Bibliometric Analysis of the New Paradigm of Human Resource Management in Indonesian State Islamic Universities (2000-2025)

2026-03-07T05:42:36+07:00

The paradigm of human resource management (HRM) is rapidly evolving in the digital era, requiring adaptive frameworks, particularly within higher education institutions. This study aims to analyze the emerging HRM paradigm in State Islamic Universities and identify key research trends and thematic structures. Using a quantitative bibliometric approach, 746 articles indexed in Scopus and Web of Science were collected through Publish or Perish and analyzed using VOSviewer. The results reveal five major clusters, with Economics and HRM as the most dominant themes, indicated by high keyword co-occurrence and link strength. Recent trends show a shift from purely theoretical discussions to more practice-oriented, technology-driven topics, particularly the integration of artificial intelligence into HRM. Despite this development, research specifically addressing the contextual implementation of HRM systems in Islamic higher education remains limited. This study contributes by mapping the intellectual structure, highlighting the emerging role of AI as a key element in shaping a new HRM paradigm within Islamic State Universities, and identifying future research directions that bridge theory and practice.
