Abstract

This study examines the implementation of tolerance-based character education in shaping pluralistic attitudes among students at Pondok Pesantren Nurul Jadid, Paiton Probolinggo. Using a qualitative case study approach, the research explores the mechanisms of habituation, exemplary leadership, and value integration within the curriculum and religious activities. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation involving pesantren leaders, teachers, student organizations, and senior students. The findings reveal that daily interactions in the pesantren—structured around the Panca Kesadaran Santri (Five Awarenesses of Students): religious awareness, intellectual awareness, social awareness, national awareness, and organizational awareness—serve as the foundation for internalizing tolerance values. Tolerance is cultivated through positive social contact in shared spaces, conflict resolution guided by educators, and dialogical learning forums such as halaqah, bahtsul masail, and comparative fiqh studies. These processes contribute significantly to the development of pluralistic attitudes in cognitive, affective, and conative dimensions. The study concludes that pesantren plays a strategic role as a socialization space for moderation, producing students who are inclusive, adaptive, and capable of living harmoniously within a diverse society.

Abstract

Era teknologi digital membawa perubahan besar dalam perilaku, orientasi nilai, dan pola interaksi peserta didik. Kemudahan akses informasi tidak hanya membuka peluang pembelajaran, tetapi juga menghadirkan ancaman berupa degradasi moral, individualisme, hedonisme, serta rendahnya etika bermedia. Dalam konteks ini, keteladanan guru Pendidikan Agama Islam menjadi elemen strategis untuk membentuk karakter religius dan moral peserta didik. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk: Mendeskripsikan urgensi keteladanan guru PAI dalam pembentukan karakter, menganalisis peran guru PAI sebagai role model spiritual, mengidentifikasi tantangan keteladanan di era digital, dan merumuskan strategi penguatan keteladanan yang relevan dengan kebutuhan pendidikan kontemporer. Penelitian menggunakan metode kajian pustaka melalui analisis jurnal dan buku periode 2020–2025. Sumber literatur dipilih berdasarkan relevansi dan kelayakan akademik. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa keteladanan guru PAI merupakan metode paling efektif untuk menanamkan nilai spiritual, moral, dan sosial, karena peserta didik lebih mudah menginternalisasi nilai melalui contoh nyata dibandingkan instruksi verbal. Keteladanan guru terbukti memperkuat karakter religius, literasi moral digital, dan perilaku sosial siswa. Temuan ini menegaskan bahwa penguatan kompetensi spiritual, kepribadian, dan etika digital guru PAI sangat penting untuk menghadapi tantangan era teknologi. Hasil penelitian ini signifikan sebagai pijakan pengembangan strategi pendidikan karakter berbasis keteladanan di sekolah

Abstract

This study aimed to analyze: (1) pre-service teachers' perceptions of the urgency of the IEP, (2) their readiness (cognitive, affective, and skills) to design and implement it, and (3) the influence of internal and external factors on this readiness. A quantitative approach using descriptive and correlational survey methods was employed. The research subjects were 38 seventh-semester prospective teachers at universities in East Java, Indonesia. The universities were Jember Islamic University, State Islamic University (UIN Kyai Haji Ahmad Shiddiq), and Nurul Jadid University, which were selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using a valid and reliable Likert scale questionnaire. The data analysis used was descriptive analysis and multiple linear regression. Descriptive analysis revealed that 64.5% of participants had positive readiness and perceptions. While perception of IEP urgency was high (73.7% positive), external factors like institutional support showed the lowest positive percentage (57.9%). Multiple Linear Regression indicated that internal and external factors together significantly influenced readiness (R²=0.794), with internal factors (β=0.512) being more dominant than external ones (β=0.387). The novelty of this finding underscores that while personal competence development is foundational, systemic support from teacher education institutions is equally critical for successful IEP implementation, highlighting a necessary dual focus in teacher preparation programs.

Abstract

Numerous academics have advocated using English as a medium of instruction (EMI). However, little focus has been placed on how an EFL teacher used EMI in a rural area in Pesantren in East Java. This study details the usage of EMI in EFL classes with students of various ethnic backgrounds, in particular. This study employs a narrative inquiry to examine two teachers' experiences teaching English as a second language over their roughly 16 years in senior high schools and teachers who spend approximately four years teaching English in the pesantren. The information was gleaned from a narrative mediated by a voice note and video call. Thematic analysis was used to examine the data. The findings indicate that there are two aspects to using EMI in EFL classes: (1) looking back, (2) looking both internally and externally, and (3) looking forward. The study's implementation is that the teacher's pedagogical expertise and language ability become the primary supports in EMI classes.

Abstract

Speaking is a practical skill and serves as a crucial indicator of one's proficiency in English. Generally, an individual is considered to have a strong command of the English language if they can effectively communicate verbally. Mastery of speaking skills is particularly challenging, as it necessitates consistent practice. To address the challenges faced by students in developing their English speaking abilities, researchers implemented the English-Speaking Practice (ESP) application as a resource for facilitating English conversation. This study aimed to enhance students' speaking skills across various dimensions, including pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary, fluency, and comprehension. Employing a participatory action research methodology, data was gathered through observations, interviews, and assessments. The findings indicated that the ESP application, featuring a "Listen, Quiz, Practice, and Record" function, successfully improved speaking abilities, as evidenced by an increase in scores across four evaluated sections: 58.55, 64.73, 70.18, and 78.18, respectively. This study revealed that the integration of the ESP application significantly enhanced students' proficiency in English speaking.
