Objectives: This study examined the influence of school–parent collaboration and family environment on the character development of madrasah ibtidaiyah students in Jombang, Indonesia.

Method: Using a quantitative approach and associative descriptive method, the study involved purposive sampling of 23 units of madrasah ibtidaiyah in Jombang, Indonesia, with 47 paired respondents. The questionnaire measured three variables: School–Parent Collaboration based on Epstein’s model, Family Environment based on Baumrind’s parenting theory, and Student Character based on Lickona and Zubaedi. Data analysis included tests for normality, multicollinearity, heteroscedasticity, and multiple linear regression.

Results: The results showed that school–parent collaboration had no effect on character education, family environment had no effect on character education. and school–parent collaboration and family environment together had no effect on character education, contributing only 2.4%.

Theoretical Contribution: The theoretical contributions of this study are: 1) supporting Bronfenbrenner’s ecological theory, Vygotsky’s theory of the Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD), and Bandura’s social theory; 2) identifying character values in Islamic education, such as ṣidq (honesty), amānah (responsibility), ṣabr (patience), raḥmah (compassion), discipline, 'adl (justice), and solidarity; and 3) proposing character education strategies that include syirkah tarbawiyyah (education with true partnership), mas'ūliyyah musytarakah (spiritual responsibility), uswah ḥasanah (exemplary behavior), tarbiyah raqamiyyah (digital education), and tawāzun tarbawī (balanced education).

Implication Future research should adopt longitudinal approaches and broader factors.

Objectives: This research aims to analyze the influence of supervisors’ digital competence on the quality of Islamic education teachers in Madrasah Ibtidaiyah.

Method: This study employed a quantitative approach with a causal-correlational design. The population consisted of Islamic Religious Education (IRE) supervisors at Madrasah Ibtidaiyah in Central Java, with a sample of 100 individuals. The sample was selected using proportional cluster random sampling. Data were collected using a questionnaire tested for validity and reliability. The data were analyzed using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, scatter plot technique, t-test, F-test, and regression analysis.

Results: The results showed that supervisors’ digital competence had a significant influence on the quality of Islamic education teachers in Madrasah Ibtidaiyah, with a contribution of 36.2%.

Theoretical Contribution: This study enriches Islamic education theory by demonstrating that supervision aligns with the principles of al-mas'ūliyyah (professional responsibility), al-amānah (trust and integrity), al-iḥsān (continuous improvement), ash-shūrā (deliberation and collaboration), and at-taqwīm (evaluation and reflection), as well as mastery of technology as a manifestation of the command to iqra’ (exploration and development of knowledge).

Implication: Future research should include additional variables such as school culture, technological support, and teacher motivation to develop a more comprehensive supervision model.
