Using a qualitative approach supported by descriptive data, the research identifies key factors influencing learning quality, implementation of continuous improvement strategies, implementation challenges, and stakeholder involvement. The findings show that strategies such as improving teacher competence, strengthening school management, integrating technology, upgrading infrastructure, and fostering collaboration with parents and the community have a positive impact on learning effectiveness. However, challenges such as limited resources, resistance to change, and lack of policy support must be addressed systematically. This study recommends fostering a reflective and evaluative school culture, visionary leadership, and sustained support from all stakeholders to achieve optimal learning quality. The continuous improvement strategies implemented at SDN 004 Bontang Barat demonstrate the importance of a holistic approach to enhancing learning quality. By addressing multiple aspects such as teacher competence, school management, technology integration, and community engagement, the school has created a more conducive environment for effective learning.</p> 2025-07-05T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Anggunan Tunggal, Syafril Hidayat, Asmar Baco, Azainil Azainil https://jurnal.larisma.or.id/index.php/JRIP/article/view/1181 Revealing the Message of Spirituality in the Song “Tinggal Sertaku” Victory Song of Faith Number 148 2025-07-04T21:52:26+07:00 Trianus Trianus trianus15putra@gmail.com Junita Batubara trianus15putra@gmail.com Dewi Tika trianus15putra@gmail.com <p>The song “Tinggal Sertaku” in Nyanyian Kemenangan Iman (NKI) No. 148 is a work by Henry Francis Lyte that describes a spiritual request for God’s presence, especially when facing suffering and death. This study aims to uncover the message of spirituality in the song through a qualitative narrative approach with Charles Sanders Peirce’s semiotic method. Data were obtained through literature study, congregation interviews, and analysis of the song’s lyrics which include metric structure, rhyme, and style. The results of the analysis show that this song contains poetic symbols such as “twilight”, “dark”, and “death” which represent the fragility of human life and the eternity of God’s love. This song consists of four verses with varying rhyme patterns and long meter (10.10.10.10). This song is not just a prayer song, but also a declaration of faith in the presence of God who gives strength and hope in all life situations. In conclusion, “Tinggal Sertaku” has high theological and liturgical value and is relevant to be sung in various forms of Christian worship.</p> 2025-07-05T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Trianus Trianus, Junita Batubara, Dewi Tika https://jurnal.larisma.or.id/index.php/JRIP/article/view/1182 Daralo Song Composition: Mebawalase Mesampere Style 2025-07-04T21:53:26+07:00 Frangky Lawendatu frangkylawendatu37@gmail.com Junita Batubara frangkylawendatu37@gmail.com Dewi Tika Lestari frangkylawendatu37@gmail.com <p>This study highlights the culture of the Sangihe Talaud community, regarding the M?samper? song. M?samper? is the ancestral culture of the Sangihe community which has been passed down from generation to generation until now. The Sangihe Islands are one of the islands located in North Sulawesi Province. The term Mebawalase Mesampere means to reply in the Sangihe language, which is a singing style where the singers will reply to each other's songs (like replying to pantun). Daralo is a song composition inspired by Mebawalase Mesampere. Researchers found several styles of Mebawalase Mesampere singing in the work of daralo. Researchers also found that the creators of Mebawalase Mesampere songs did not include their names or were anonymous, so that the Mebawalase Mesampere-style songs that were created will gradually become extinct. This study uses qualitative methods with data analysis and interviews. In terms of the creation of Daralo, the style of the song Mebawalase Mesampere is performed using western musical instruments, so that the nuances of the song that characterize Mebawalase Mesampere are more creative and innovative. The results of the study have been performed at STT Jaffray Makassar in a recital as a requirement for the final exam for the concentration of church music.</p> 2025-07-05T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Frangky Lawendatu, Junita Batubara, Dewi Tika Lestari https://jurnal.larisma.or.id/index.php/JRIP/article/view/1183 School Leadership in Improving Learning Environment Management: A Case Study at SD Negeri 4 Tekad 2025-07-04T21:54:07+07:00 Peldi Setiawan peldisetiawan0@gmail.com.id Fatqul Hajar Aswad peldisetiawan0@gmail.com.id Siswoyo Siswoyo peldisetiawan0@gmail.com.id <p>This study explores the implementation of school leadership in improving the management of the learning environment at SDN 4 Tekad.

Edutainment-based learning offers an enjoyable and interactive approach to support this development. This study aims to explore emotional development in children through edutainment-based learning at Group B PAUD Mbelin Gunana, Sei Bingai District, Langkat Regency. A qualitative approach was employed using observation, interviews, and documentation as data collection techniques. The findings indicate that edutainment methods enhance children's self-confidence, social interaction skills, and emotional regulation. Activities such as singing, playing, and storytelling positively influence children's moods and learning motivation. Teachers play a key role in fostering a supportive atmosphere that enables children to express their emotions more openly. Thus, edutainment-based learning is proven effective in supporting children's emotional development and is recommended for broader implementation in early childhood education institutions.</p> 2025-07-15T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Vioren Timanta Br Sembiring, Elya Siska Anggraini https://jurnal.larisma.or.id/index.php/JRIP/article/view/1199 The Legacy of Painting Values, Techniques, and Aesthetics through Art Education: A Case Study of Cirebon Glass Painting in the Contemporary Era 2025-07-12T09:46:22+07:00 Asep Mifatahul Falah asepmiftahulfalah@gmail.com Zaenudin Ramli zaenudinramli@gmail.com Agus Cahyana cahayana@gmail.com <p>Cirebon glass painting is one of the traditional art forms that contains cultural values, distinctive techniques, and local aesthetics. In facing the challenges of modern times, the sustainability of Cirebon glass painting demands a contextual and adaptive inheritance strategy. This study aims to examine how the values, techniques, and aesthetics in the tradition of Cirebon glass painting are passed down through art education, both in the formal (schools and art colleges) and non-formal (studios and communities) realms. Using a qualitative method with an ethnographic case study approach, data was collected through observation, interviews, and visual documentation. The results show that the inheritance of glass painting does not solely depend on technical skills, but also on the internalization of cultural values and understanding of local aesthetics. Art education plays a role as a medium for intergenerational inheritance, although in its implementation it faces various challenges, such as limited curriculum integration, lack of regeneration of artists, and the need for innovative learning methods that are in accordance with the contemporary cultural context. This study recommends strengthening collaboration between educational institutions, traditional art practitioners and communities in designing a sustainable art inheritance model.</p> 2025-07-16T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Asep Mifatahul Falah, Zaenudin Ramli, Agus Cahyana https://jurnal.larisma.or.id/index.php/JRIP/article/view/1216 Integration of Values, Culture of Linguistic Politeness and Digital Technology in Educational Development: A Study of Gibran Rakabuming Raka's Twitter Comment Column 2025-07-18T23:27:07+07:00 Habib Syukri Nasution habibsyukri@umsu.ac.id Mahriyuni Mahriyuni mahriyuni@usu.ac.id <p>The integration of values, culture of politeness, and digital technology in education is key to creating a knowledgeable, cultured, and ethical generation. In the 21st century, one of the national characteristics that is starting to fade is the cultural values of politeness, which are being eroded by the sophistication of science and technology. This paper aims to identify violations of values, culture, and politeness from an educational perspective, specifically character education, in Gibran Rakabuming Raka's Twitter comment column. The method used is netnography, a form of ethnography adapted to the social world mediated by computer devices. Of the 25 netizen comments sampled, there were 9 (22.5%) comments violating the Maxim of Tact, 7 (17.5%) comments violating the Maxim of Praise, 2 (5%) comments violating the Maxim of Sympathy, 3 (7.5%) comments violating the Maxim of Politeness, 2 (5%) comments violating the Maxim of Humility, 1 (2.5%) comment violating the Maxim of Generosity, and 1 (2.5%) comment violating the Maxim of Agreement. Thus, it is concluded that there is a violation of the cultural values of politeness in language committed by netizens in the Twitter comment column of Gibran Rakabuming Raka.</p> 2025-07-20T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Habib Syukri Nasution, Mahriyuni Mahriyuni https://jurnal.larisma.or.id/index.php/JRIP/article/view/1222 Analysis of Innovation Trends in Mathematics Learning Models in Improving Students' Critical Thinking Skills: A Systematic Literature Review 2025-07-20T21:22:51+07:00 Nur 'Afifah nurafifah@umsu.ac.id <p>Critical thinking skills are an essential competency in 21st-century mathematics learning. This study aims to analyze trends in innovation in mathematics learning models that contribute to the development of students' critical thinking skills through a systematic literature review approach. Articles were collected from various scientific databases such as Google Scholar, ERIC, ScienceDirect, and accredited national journals, with inclusion criteria being publications from 2015–2025, full access, and relevance to the topic. Of the 15 selected articles, it was found that learning models such as Problem-Based Learning (PBL), Realistic Mathematics Education (RME), Project-Based Learning (PjBL), STEM-based learning, and digital media integration such as Wordwall are the dominant approaches that have proven effective. These models are able to develop critical thinking dimensions such as analysis, evaluation, reflection, and problem-solving. However, challenges in implementation such as teacher readiness and limited resources remain major obstacles. This study recommends strengthening teacher training and policy support as strategic steps in encouraging the adoption of innovative learning models that have an impact on improving the quality of students' critical thinking.</p> 2025-07-20T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Nur 'Afifah
