These studies share a common concern with the transformation of education through technology integration, local wisdom, and student-centered approaches. Several articles examine interactive digital media in fostering creativity, computational thinking, language skills, physical literacy, and learning outcomes at the elementary level, while others address broader systemic and institutional issues, including numeracy strengthening, university--government--private collaboration, and AI-based and QR Code-based attendance systems as predictors of teacher work discipline. Additional studies explore socio-psychological dynamics such as self-esteem, dark triad, loneliness, charismatic leadership, joyful learning, student engagement, and gender-based experiences in vocational education. Taken together, these articles highlight how instructional media, institutional systems, and socio-psychological factors interact to shape student learning, teacher professionalism, and educational effectiveness across diverse contexts.
