<span>This study aims to improve an understanding of the contribution of entrepreneurship education (EE) in Indonesia’s higher education. Even though the contribution of EE to global education is contested at the present time by many scholars, the evaluation of EE implementation in Indonesia is necessary in order to improve educated entrepreneurs. The study used a cross-sectional approach in the Universitas Prasetiya Mulya which is divided into the first, second, and third years. Valid questionnaire reached 924 respondents. The findings show that EE's contribution in Indonesia has more influence on attitudes and perceived behavioral control. However, other findings indicate that the contribution of EE is still not fully persistent due to a sharp decline in the regression coefficient, especially from subjective norm and perceived behavioral control in the students third year while attitude consistently contributes significant role and has an increasing contribution.</span>

<span>A professional learning community (PLC) is a long-term sustainable program that can replace professional development (PD) to enable teachers to become teacher leaders and school principals to become instructional leaders. Using a case study from the establishment of the PLC project in 10 schools of Eastern Indonesia (Saparua island, Maluku), this research develops a progressive leadership change model through an ADDIE instructional design that changes school leadership. The research aims to investigate how to identify the most effective leadership change model by exploring differrent forms of learning communities between school principals and teachers. Using an action research approach to solve the problem, the data were collected over a 10-month period when the PLC project activities took place and embedded them as empirical materials that complement each other. The findings show that the leadership change design through PLC runs effectively if value alignment occurs between school principals and teachers after the open environment is established. The data also highlight that aligned values must be embedded as school identities, whereas a school principal must act as a change leader in order to ensure that these changes are sustainable. This study concludes by proposing policy recommendations for policy makers and education stakeholders on how to develop PD and PLC in <br /> Indonesian schools.</span>

The creative industry is currently growing very rapidly in developing countries. This is indicated by various government policies to increase the competitiveness of this industry. Value chains are needed to gain the competitive advantage within this industry at every additional step of the chain. However, there is no comprehensive research on the creative industry value chain in developing countries, such as Indonesia, especially in small and medium enterprises (SMEs). This study attempts to explore the concept of industrial chain values to narrow the gaps that exists in the literature. The research method used is a qualitative approach through semi-structured interviews and observations of 11 SMEs consisting of 5 creative business sub-sectors, namely the culinary, fashion, craft, photography, and visual communication design sectors. The results of this study indicate that, in creative industries, cocreation is the differentiator on the value chain activities, especially those that offer customization. Meanwhile, the use of social media is also considered as an important value chain activities that must be used to effectively communicate the value of the business. The results of this study can be used by stakeholders in Indonesian SMEs as a reference for formulating competitiveness strategies for this creative industry. AbstrakIndustri kreatif berkembang sangat pesat di Negara-negara berkembang. Hal ini ditandai dengan berbagai kebijakan pemerintah untuk menaikkan daya saing industri kreatif. Rantai nilai dibutuhkan untuk mendapatkan keunggulan kompetitif, dimana aktivitas penambahan nilai dilakukan pada setiap fase dalam rantai nilai. Namun, belum ada penelitian komprehensif terkait rantai nilai pada industri kreatif di negara-negara berkembang termasuk Indonesia, terutama penelitian pada usaha dengan skala kecil dan menengah (UKM). Penelitian ini mengeksplorasi konsep nilai rantai industri untuk mempersempit kesenjangan yang ada dalam literatur. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah pendekatan kualitatif melalui wawancara semi terstruktur dan observasi pada 11 UKM yang terdiri dari 5 subsektor dalam bisnis kreatif, yaitu kuliner, fesyen, kerajinan, fotografi, dan desain komunikasi visual. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa pada industri kreatif, co-creation ditemukan sebagai pembeda pada kegiatan rantai nilai, terutama pada bisnis yang menawarkan nilai customization. Penggunaan media sosial juga dinilai sebagai aktivitas penting pada rantai nilai untuk mengkomunikasikan nilai bisnis secara efektif. Hasil penelitian ini dapat digunakan sebagai referensi untuk merumuskan strategi daya saing bagi industri kreatif oleh para pemangku kepentingan yang terkait dengan UMKM di Indonesia.
