Abstract

Developing speaking proficiency remains a major challenge in Arabic language education, particularly in foreign language contexts where students often face limited opportunities for authentic communication and low confidence in oral interaction. Although Project-Based Learning (PjBL) has been widely promoted as a student-centered approach for enhancing communicative engagement, existing studies have predominantly focused on learning outcomes or technological integration, with limited attention to how learners experience project-based speaking instruction in Arabic classrooms. Addressing this gap, the present study investigates students’ perceptions of the implementation of Project-Based Learning in Arabic speaking instruction within a Muhadatsah course. This study employed a qualitative case study design involving twelve undergraduate students in the Arabic Education Program at IAIN Ternate during the 2024/2025 academic year. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and analyzed using thematic analysis to identify patterns in students’ experiences during the project-based learning process. The analysis identified six interconnected dimensions shaping students’ learning experiences: increased speaking confidence through repeated communicative practice, active participation in project tasks, collaborative peer interaction, technology-supported rehearsal and reflection, contextualized linguistic development, and the emergence of creativity and problem-solving skills. These findings suggest that PjBL functions as an integrated learning environment that simultaneously supports communicative practice, learner engagement, and reflective language use. However, the findings are limited to a single institutional context and rely primarily on students’ perceptions. Future research should examine project-based speaking instruction across diverse educational settings and incorporate mixed-method approaches to assess its impact on measurable speaking proficiency development.

Abstract

The purpose of writing this article is to scrutinize the curriculum and learning methods in pesantren (Islamic boarding school)-based madrasahs in order to accomplish tafaqquh fi ad-din for students. This article also aims to identify the portion and balance between religious and general materials in the applied curriculum structure. In addition, this study explores the learning methods employed and their effectiveness in reinforcing an in-depth understanding of religion. The locus of the research is in Madrasah Aliyah Qudsiyyah Putri, a pesantren based madrasah. The approach used is qualitative with a case study design and descriptive analysis type. Data collection techniques encompass observation, interviews, and documentation. The findings of the study show that Madrasah Aliyah Qudsiyyah Putri creates a balanced curriculum between religious and general education, which seeks to produce graduates who are intellectually intelligent and have noble morals. By integrating modern approaches, yellow books, and technology, this pesantren shapes students who are ready to face the challenges of the times and become agents of social change.
