Abstract

instruction in Islamic Religious Education (IRE) and analyze its impact on students’ higher-order thinking skills at SMA Negeri 1 Tenggarong. The background of this research arises from the prevalence of surface learning practices in IRE, which emphasize rote memorization and fail to foster 21st-century skills such as critical, analytical, evaluative, and creative thinking. The study employed a qualitative approach with a case study design. The participants consisted of IRE teachers, students, parents, and school administrators selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, higher order thinking skills (HOTS) tests, and documentation, then analyzed using Miles and Huberman’s interactive model involving data reduction, display, and conclusion drawing. The findings revealed a transformation from memorization-based learning toward deeper understanding through case analysis, behavioral evaluation, and authentic projects such as Islamic-themed videos and podcasts. Students demonstrated improvement in higher-order thinking by linking Qur’anic verses and Hadith to contemporary issues like digital ethics and intolerance. This study concludes that deep learning is an effective instructional model to enhance students’ cognitive, affective, and psychomotor competencies and can serve as a strategic approach for realizing the “Pancasila Student Profile” in the context of 21st-century Islamic education.

Abstract

The potential of authentic English input outside formal classrooms, such as that encountered in digital games, remains underexamined for Indonesian EFL learners at the college level. Authentic English input such as digital games comes with mandatory English subtitles, presenting an underexamined opportunity for incidental vocabulary learning. Therefore, this research uses a qualitative case study in order to examine how English department students perceived the role of intralingual English subtitles from the action role-playing game with the name Wuthering Waves in relation to their vocabulary competence. Seven respondents were chosen from three universities in Samarinda. The data from each respondent were analysed using thematic analysis, yielding several major themes as a result. It reveals that students view English subtitles within the game itself as a challenging but meaningful linguistic input. They actively employed digital tools to support their understanding of the game’s narrative context. Vocabulary familiarity was developed primarily through repeated exposure within the game context, including quests, character dialogues, and gameplay actions. It is concluded that non-localized games with English-only subtitles hold a significant pedagogical potential as supplementary resources for incidental learning outside formal classrooms situation.
