<div><p>The most sensitive thing in the context of Islamic education policy in Indonesia is the change of curriculum. The Islamic education curriculum cannot be separated from the national education curriculum, because Islamic education is a national education subsystem. If the national education curriculum changes, then the Islamic education curriculum also changes. In this context, as adagium "changing ministers, changing curriculum" applies always interesting to discuss. This article intends to discuss how to evaluate Islamic education curriculum policies in Indonesia; and what are the supporting and inhibiting factors in implementing curriculum policies in learning in schools in Indonesia.</p></div>

The purpose of this paper is to critically analyse the policymaking process of the Moral and National Education (MNE) curriculum in Hong Kong by employing Kingdon’s Multiple Streams Framework. The aim of the paper is threefold. First, it will describe the policy process of the national education curriculum policy as a foundation for the analysis. Second, the author will critically evaluate and apply Kingdon’s MSF to examine the policymaking process, both to analyse how such policy came to be constructed as a problem and to consider the proposed policy solutions, as well as the surrounding political forces. Third, the analysis will identify the possible coupling of these lines of thought and the notions of “policy entrepreneurs” and “policy windows.”The MNE policy provided a good example of how a policy problem is constructed in various policy contexts, as well as how the solution is matched to the problem. Although the policy outcome is not entirely predictable, Kingdon’s framework is excellent for explaining the likely outcomes.This paper contributes to the wider policy literature by bridging the East-West gap in policy analysis. It provides a better understanding of the policymaking process in Asian countries, and it should also prove useful to both education policy scholars and policymakers. Finally it suggests further research is needed on how social media affects each of Kingdon’s streams in Hong Kong.

This study aims to analyze curriculum implementation design and Islamic Education learning, a variety of curriculum integration and Islamic Education  learning, and <em>pesantren</em>-based <em>madrasah</em> model that is appropriate with National Education Standard and users’ expectations. This research was a qualitative study with a naturalistic paradigm which philosophically referred to phenomenological post-positivism and used social action models. This research was conducted in Kudus Regency with subjects related to institutional reality, curriculum implementation, learning and human resources of <em>Madrasah Aliyah</em> (MA) or Islamic Senior High Schools. The results showed that <em>pesantren</em> or Islamic boarding school is a model of MA management which <em>madrasah</em> and <em>pesantren</em> management are operationally managed in one management system. It means that MA is not only physically located in <em>pesantren</em>, but MA and <em>pesantren</em> are in an integrated organizational and management structure. The purpose of this management system unification is that all educational processes are in a system that allows all teachers and students activities in the same program package. It will ultimately create a holistic education process that produce the quality education output and outcome.

Educational issues are never ending issues to be discussed because these issues concern on the matter of humans in giving the meaning and the direction to their existence. Education is a guidance conciously conducted by the educators toward physical and spiritual developments of the students in order to shape their personality. The shaping of personality is closely related to the role of religious education. Therefore, religious education has pivotal role in national education system. However, nowadays Islamic Education still faces various problems in more complex aspects, namely education dichotomy, curriculum, purposes, resources, and Islamic education management. The improvement efforts have not yet been conducted fundamentally. The efforts to update and upgrade Islamic education are often partial and not comprehensive; moreover, most systems and Islamic education institutions have not yet been managed professionally. Regarding the above problems, two approaches to overcome the weaknesses of Islamic religious education policy in schools are needed, namely the approach of policy advocacy and the approach of Islamic Religious Education curriculum development. Accordingly, Islamic Religious Education can be the basis in shaping personality of the graduates of Indonesia educational institutions in accordance with their adhered religion.

This study focuses on continuities and changes in the dualism of national education after the collapse of the New-Order Regime in 1998. It argues that the Indonesian dualism of education may serve as a significant context in shaping the existing tensions in citizenship education in post- New-Order Indonesia. Drawing from a thematic analysis of citizenship education documents, related policy, and interviews with authors and higher education teaching staff, this study echoes the latest observations that reveal a more intertwining than rigid separation of the continuing dualism of national education. Yet, unlike the previous studies that reveal the tensions in more Islamic-based education, in its response to a more secular and modern demand, this study further highlights the intertwining of the dualism of education palpable in the citizenship education policy in post-New-Order Indonesia. It further calls for policy makers and educators to evaluate the existing citizenship education curriculum and its implementation within the context of an intertwined educational dualism in Indonesia. As such, this paper further aims to highlight the urgency of considering broader cultural and political contexts and actors involved in the process of reproducing official narratives of Indonesianess in the national curricula.
