THE PROPHETIC MODEL OF CHARACTER EDUCATION: AN ANALYSIS OF EDUCATIONAL VALUES IN THE SUNNAH
This study examines the role of the Prophet Muhammad’s hadith and sunnah as the foundation of Islamic character education. Using a qualitative library research method, this paper analyzes classical and contemporary literature related to moral values derived from prophetic traditions. The study emphasizes that Islamic education aims not only to develop intellectual capacity but also to shape moral integrity, spiritual maturity, and social responsibility. The findings reveal that the prophetic model of education integrates several key principles: exemplary behavior (uswah hasanah), compassion and empathy, consistent moral habituation, appreciation of knowledge, discipline, and the balance between worldly and spiritual life. These values provide a holistic framework for addressing the moral and ethical crises faced by modern society. The research concludes that revitalizing prophetic values within formal and non-formal education can produce a generation of Muslims who are intellectually competent, emotionally resilient, and spiritually grounded.

The population consisted of all teachers in State Elementary Schools of Gapura District, Sumenep Regency, with a sample of 114 teachers selected through proportionate random sampling. Data were collected using closed questionnaires and analyzed using variance-based Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with SmartPLS 4. The results show that transformational leadership has a positive and significant effect on teacher performance (β=0.424), work motivation has a positive and significant effect on teacher performance (β=0.271), and work discipline significantly mediates the relationship between transformational leadership and teacher performance (β=0.211). However, work discipline does not mediate the relationship between work motivation and teacher performance. The study concludes by emphasizing the importance of transformational leadership in improving teacher discipline and performance. Recommendations include the need for transformational leadership development programs for school principals and the strengthening of motivation systems based on recognition and teacher career development.

MBKM POLICY AND PRACTICE AT UNIVERSITAS SILIWANGI: AN ANALYSIS OF ALIGNMENT, EFFECTIVENESS, AND IMPACT ON STUDENT COMPETENCIES
The transformation of higher education in Indonesia through the Merdeka Belajar–Kampus Merdeka (MBKM) policy requires universities to strengthen curriculum flexibility, experiential learning, and institutional readiness. However, the alignment between policy design and real implementation varies across institutions, particularly in regional universities. This study aims to analyze the consistency between MBKM policy documents and implementation practices at Universitas Siliwangi, evaluate the effectiveness of its programs in enhancing student competencies, and identify the structural and operational challenges influencing program outcomes. Using a qualitative case study approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews with supervising lecturers, MBKM coordinators, and student participants, supported by institutional documents such as curricula, guidelines, decrees, and activity reports. The findings show that Universitas Siliwangi has established policy frameworks aligned with national MBKM principles, reflected in curriculum integration, recognition of off-campus learning, and structured administrative support for programs such as MSIB, PMM, Teaching Campus, and community-based projects. Students participating in MBKM reported significant improvements in communication, independence, problem-solving, and workplace readiness. However, several challenges persist, including uneven curriculum harmonization, limited partner availability in certain study programs, varying levels of student readiness, and the need for a more adaptive academic information system. Overall, the study concludes that MBKM implementation at Universitas Siliwangi is progressing well, yet requires strengthened governance, improved cross-unit coordination, and expanded partnerships to achieve optimal and sustainable transformation in higher education.

CAN COGNITIVE BEHAVIOR THERAPY WITH COGNITIVE RESTRUCTURING TECHNIQUES REDUCE INFERIORITY IN STUDENTS?
Individuals with feelings of inferiority tend to mask their shortcomings due to a lack of self-realization, which impacts various aspects of life such as career, social relationships, and mental health. Based on the results of observations and interviews with BK teachers of SMP Negeri 3 Jekulo Kudus, it was found that students showed symptoms of inferiority such as withdrawal, indifference, envy, and feeling uncomfortable when working in a group. This study uses a case study method in AB students of grade VIII E with an individual counseling approach using Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), specifically the Cognitive Restructuring technique to correct cognitive distortions that affect the counselor's negative beliefs. Data was collected through interviews with BK teachers and counselors, as well as direct observations at school. Data analysis was carried out using the Miles & Huberman model. The results of the study show that the factors that cause the inferiority of AB students come from internal factors such as negative mindsets, feelings of inferiority, and difficulty interacting, as well as external factors in the form of lack of family support and social pressure. CBT interventions have been shown to be effective in helping ABs identify and change negative mindsets to be more adaptive. After the counseling process, AB showed significant improvements in self-confidence, social interaction skills, and emotional management.

The results of the analysis on students who are victims of bullying show that 41 students (37.96%) have a high level of emotion dysregulation and 67 students (62.04%) have a low level of emotion dysregulation. Based on the results of this analysis, it is found that the majority of the level of emotional dysregulation of students who are victims of bullying at one private junior high school in East Jakarta is in the low category. However, there are still many students who are victims of bullying in junior high schools who have high levels of emotional dysregulation, so efforts to reduce the emotional dysregulation of students who are victims of bullying in junior high schools are very important for guidance and counseling teachers to do. One of the effective counseling interventions used is Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).
