Abstract

The development of information technology in the 21st century has brought significant changes in various fields, including education and religion. The 2023 APJII report noted that more than 70% of Indonesian teenagers have internet access through gadgets, indicating that the younger generation lives in a digital era. This development also influences religious-based educational environments, one of which is Pondok Pesantren Sharif Hidayatullah Rejomulyo in Kediri City. This pesantren is categorized as a modern Islamic boarding school with a policy that allows students to bring and use gadgets outside of worship and Qur’anic study times. Such a phenomenon raises questions about the motives and gratifications of students in using gadgets. This study aims to understand the motives and gratifications obtained by students in using gadgets at Pondok Pesantren Sharif Hidayatullah Rejomulyo in Kediri City. The research applies a descriptive qualitative approach using observation, interviews, and documentation methods. The Uses and gratification theory is used as the analytical framework to identify cognitive, affective, personal integration, social integration, and diversion needs. The research informants consist of active students who use gadgets in their daily activities at the pesantren. The findings reveal that students use gadgets to seek academic information and current news, obtain entertainment, communicate with family and friends, express themselves, and relieve boredom. The gratifications gained align with the motives that correspond to the five categories of needs in the Uses and gratification theory.

Abstract

An organization is a collection of individuals united by common goals, where communication plays a crucial role in strengthening relationships among members. Ineffective communication patterns, however, may lead to conflict and weaken organizational sustainability. This study aims to analyze communication patterns, solidarity values, as well as supporting and inhibiting factors in fostering solidarity among the youth of Annisul Muttaqin Mosque, Bedewang Village, Banyuwangi Regency. Using a qualitative approach, data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation with eight informants consisting of administrators and youth members. Data analysis followed the stages of data collection, reduction, display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that youth members apply circle and Y communication patterns, in line with Pace and Faules’ concept of downward, upward, horizontal, cross-channel, and informal communication. These patterns support an open communication system that fosters solidarity, consistent with Durkheim’s organic solidarity theory. The solidarity values identified include support, mutual help, respect, and a sense of belonging. Supporting factors consist of religious, social, cultural, and artistic activities, while inhibiting factors include differences of opinion and the emergence of group division.
