Abstract

This study examines the role of the Arabic Drama Contest Antar Rayon as an experiential approach in Arabic curriculum development at Pondok Modern Darussalam Gontor Putri Campus 1. Using a qualitative educational ethnography approach, this research explores how drama-based activities contribute to communicative competence, hidden curriculum, and curriculum implementation within the pesantren educational environment. Data were collected through participant observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation involving Arabic teachers, drama supervisors, student organizers, and student participants. The findings reveal that the Arabic Drama Contest functions as an authentic communicative learning environment that strengthens students’ speaking fluency, confidence, vocabulary mastery, creativity, and collaborative interaction. The activity also serves as a hidden curriculum transmitting values of discipline, leadership, responsibility, and teamwork through participatory educational practices. Furthermore, the study demonstrates that curriculum development in pesantren extends beyond formal classroom instruction into cultural performances and student organizational activities integrated within the bi’ah lughawiyyah. The study concludes that drama-based experiential learning provides an innovative and holistic model for Arabic curriculum development in Islamic boarding schools by integrating linguistic competence, character formation, and cultural participation into a unified educational ecosystem.

Abstract

This study examines the role of the Arabic Grand Speech Competition as a medium for curriculum development at Gontor for Girls Campus 1. Using a qualitative educational ethnography approach, the research explores how Arabic speech activities contribute to communicative competence, Islamic character formation, and institutional language culture within the pesantren environment. Data were collected through participant observation, in-depth interviews, and document analysis involving language supervisors, speech mentors, committee members, and participating students from the *kibar* and *shighar* categories. The findings reveal that the competition functions as a living curriculum that integrates performative Arabic learning, language immersion, hidden curriculum, and leadership training into students’ educational experiences. The activities strengthen students’ *maharah kalam* through repeated oral performance, rhetorical practice, and authentic communicative interaction. Furthermore, the integration of *Haflah Tilawah Al-Qur’an* reinforces the spiritual and da‘wah-oriented dimensions of Arabic learning in pesantren education. The study concludes that curriculum development in Islamic boarding schools is culturally constructed through institutional traditions, communal interaction, and language-based educational practices beyond formal classroom instruction. This study contributes theoretically to Arabic curriculum development discourse and practically to communicative and culture-based Arabic learning models in Islamic education.
