Abstract

This study explores the communicative approach in Arabic language learning from both theoretical and practical perspectives as a response to the need for functional and contextual language proficiency. In the context of modern education, Arabic language learning can no longer rely solely on grammatical mastery; instead, it must be directed toward the ability to communicate effectively in various real-life situations. The purpose of this study is to examine the communicative approach in Arabic language teaching from both theoretical and practical aspects. A qualitative approach was employed, using library research and limited field observation in Arabic teaching practices. Data were collected through documentation, field notes, and analysis of learning materials, and then analyzed descriptively and critically. The findings show that the communicative approach theoretically emphasizes the use of Arabic in real-life contexts, based on language acquisition theory and communicative competence. Practically, it requires interactive methods, teacher training, contextual materials, and digital technologies to enhance students’ language skills, motivation, and understanding of religious and social values in an integrated manner. These findings affirm that the communicative approach should be systematically integrated into the Arabic language curriculum and instructional strategies to make learning more relevant, effective, and meaningful.

Abstract

This study aims to elaborate on the assessment of instructional planning (lesson plan), particularly how planning emerges from the teacher's internal didactic transposition. It focuses on the diffusion of knowledge by teachers from the curriculum and textbooks into the form of teaching modules or lesson plans. A qualitative approach through phenomenological research method was employed in this study. The data sources include the Arabic language teaching module for Grade 3 Madrasah Ibtidaiyah in Bandung and Arabic language teacher as participants. The selection of one Arabic teacher as a participant in this study can be justified methodologically with a purposive sampling approach. Data collection techniques consisted of document analysis and in-depth interviews, followed by a praxeological review as an analytical tool. The assessment results identified learning barriers faced by students in the Qiraah (reading) skill material. In this context, internal didactic transposition defined as the transformation of theoretical material into teaching practice plays a crucial role in aligning instructional content with students’ needs and learning objectives. The process of internal transposition in Qiraah instruction positively impacts students’ reading skills, especially when teaching materials are adapted contextually and made relevant to the students’ proficiency levels. These findings pave the way for deeper investigation into the influence of teacher-student verbal exchanges and teaching approaches on students’ comprehension of vocabulary and their reading strategies in Arabic text-based instruction.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the similarities, differences, strengths, and weaknesses between traditional and modern approaches in teaching Arabic. Employing a qualitative approach through a comparative study method, the research examines both approaches to identify their respective advantages and limitations in Arabic language instruction. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation, and analyzed using data reduction, presentation, and inductive conclusion drawing, resulting in a comprehensive portrayal grounded in empirical findings and theoretical literature. The results indicate that Arabic language teaching has evolved from traditional methods centered on memorization and grammar toward modern approaches emphasizing communication, collaboration, and technology integration. Both approaches share the goal of equipping students with oral and written skills, with the teacher’s role and assessment remaining essential. The traditional approach excels in grammatical depth, while the modern approach excels in interactivity. The shortcomings of each approach necessitate that teachers select strategies aligned with students’ needs and learning objectives. The findings recommend combining the best elements of both approaches to develop an Arabic language teaching model that is balanced, relevant to contemporary needs, and firmly rooted in scholarly traditions and Arab-Islamic cultural values.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the pedagogical competence of Arabic language teachers in accordance with the National Education Standards. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed to provide an in-depth depiction of teachers’ pedagogical competence based on these standards, covering the stages of lesson planning, implementation, and evaluation. Primary data were obtained through interviews, observations, and documentation, while secondary data were collected from official documents and relevant literature. Data collection techniques included observation, semi-structured interviews, and document analysis with triangulation to ensure accuracy. Data analysis followed the Miles and Huberman model through reduction, presentation, and inductive conclusion drawing to produce valid and contextual findings. The results indicate that the pedagogical competence of Arabic language teachers encompasses understanding students, planning, implementing, evaluating, and developing learners’ potential by integrating language skills and Islamic values. Teachers are required to master learning theories, develop curricula, utilize technology, and conduct valid assessments. Moreover, teachers are expected to foster students’ creativity and 21st-century skills, thereby making learning more effective, meaningful, and aligned with the National Education Standards. This study recommends enhancing the pedagogical competence of Arabic language teachers through continuous professional development, integration of educational technology, and strengthening of Islamic value-based curricula to support students’ 21st-century skills.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to conduct an in-depth examination of the personality competence of Arabic language teachers based on the principles of Islamic educational philosophy. This research employs a qualitative approach with a literature study method to analyze the personality competence of Arabic language teachers from the perspective of Islamic educational philosophy. Primary and secondary data were collected from classical and modern literature, including the works of al-Ghazali and policy documents. Data collection techniques involved document review and evaluation of sources based on their credibility and relevance. Data analysis was conducted using descriptive-analytical content analysis to interpret meanings and patterns within the texts, resulting in a profound philosophical understanding of the personality competence of Arabic language teachers. The findings indicate that Islamic educational philosophy positions Arabic language teachers as moral exemplars and spiritual guides. Personality competence encompasses tauhid (the oneness of God), moral integrity, emotional balance, professionalism, cultural wisdom, and commitment to spiritual development. By integrating Qur’anic values and language skills, teachers play a strategic role in shaping students’ faith, morality, and competencies, thereby making education holistic, relevant, and beneficial for the welfare of the community. These findings affirm that Arabic language teachers must develop personality competencies including tauhid, moral integrity, emotional balance, professionalism, cultural wisdom, and spiritual commitment. This is essential to realizing Arabic language learning that is holistic, meaningful, and aligned with the values of Islamic educational philosophy for the betterment of society.

Abstract

This study aims to identify the social competence of Arabic language teachers based on the indicators of the National Education Standards (SNP). A descriptive qualitative approach was employed to portray the social competence of Arabic language teachers according to the SNP indicators. Primary data were obtained through interviews, observations, and documentation, while secondary data were gathered from official documents. Data analysis followed the Miles and Huberman model, which includes data reduction, data display, and inductive conclusion drawing to produce valid findings. The results indicate that the social competence of Arabic language teachers within the SNP framework includes the ability to communicate effectively, empathetically, and politely; to socialize within the school and the community; to respect diversity; to adapt to local culture; and to integrate Islamic values. Such competence is essential for conveying Arab-Islamic cultural values in the Indonesian context, ensuring that learning not only teaches the language but also fosters character building, tolerance, and harmonious social relations in educational and community settings. These findings suggest that Arabic language teachers should engage in continuous professional development focusing on effective communication, cross-cultural understanding, and the integration of Islamic values. Schools are encouraged to support community-based collaborative programs to strengthen teachers’ roles in fostering character, tolerance, and harmonious social relations in alignment with Indonesia’s cultural context.
