Abstract

The aim of this study was to investigate the difficulties and solutions that students faced when writing their undergraduate theses. To provide rich sources of data on individuals' experiences, the researcher designed the research using qualitative method with a case study approach. This study included ten individuals who satisfied the research's inclusive requirements, such as being active learners, having completed the thesis seminar stage, and being willing to freely participate in this study. The researchers collected data using semi-structured interviews. The data was then analyzed by using thematic analysis (coding). The findings revealed four themes of challenges: linguistics and writing knowledge issues (grammar, vocabulary, paraphrasing, and referencing), psychological issues (lack of motivation and confidence), media and resource issues (online platform, limited references, and inaccessible websites), and supervision and time management issues (unsupportive supervisor and poor time management). This study also discovered three strategies used by students to reduce those challenges: self-management strategies (doing positive activities and taking schedule notes), technological aids (language apps and entertainment/studying apps), and assistance from others (supervisors, families, and friends).

Abstract

The rapid development of digital technology requires teachers to possess competencies that are relevant to modern learning needs. This necessity underlies the focus of this community service program, namely transforming teacher competencies through character-based learning innovation supported by Artificial Intelligence (AI). The program was conducted at Madrasah Tsanawiyah Nurul Huda Muaro Jambi with the aim of strengthening teachers’ skills in utilizing AI as a tool to support interactive learning while instilling character values in students. The method included socialization, training, and direct mentoring in the practical application of AI-based learning media in the classroom. The results showed significant improvements in teachers’ ability to design technology-based learning materials, a better understanding of integrating character education, and increased motivation to innovate. Furthermore, the program fostered a more engaging learning atmosphere aligned with the needs of the digital generation. Therefore, the transformation of teacher competencies through AI not only enhances teacher professionalism but also plays a crucial role in shaping students with strong character amid technological advancement.
