Abstract

This study aims to critically analyze the problems of kitab kuning learning from the perspective of pesantren pedagogy by highlighting linguistic, motivational, methodological, and learning-environment dimensions. The study of kitab kuning as the primary academic tradition in Islamic boarding schools holds a strategic position in the transmission of turats (classical Islamic scholarship) and the formation of students’ Islamic intellectual reasoning. However, in practice, the learning process faces various challenges, particularly in mastering instrumental sciences (nahwu–sharaf), low learning motivation among some students, limited methodological variation that remains predominantly teacher centered, and environmental factors that influence concentration and instructional effectiveness. This research employs a qualitative approach with a case study design in the pesantren context, utilizing observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation, analyzed through a descriptive-critical framework. The findings reveal that linguistic barriers constitute the dominant factor affecting text comprehension, while traditional instructional models such as bandongan and sorogan have not been fully complemented by reflective and participatory pedagogical approaches. Students’ motivation is influenced by their perception of the relevance of kitab kuning to contemporary needs, while the pesantren learning environment plays an ambivalent role as a space for character formation and, at the same time, a challenge in academic management. Critically, this study affirms that kitab kuning learning retains strong epistemological and cultural value, yet requires pedagogical revitalization through the integration of contextual approaches, strengthening of textual literacy, and diversification of instructional strategies.

Abstract

Critical thinking is a cognitive process involving the ability to analyze, evaluate, and question information before accepting it as truth, enabling individuals to formulate reasoned opinions and make sound decisions based on credible sources. In the pesantren context, one strategic effort to cultivate critical thinking among santri is through participation in Lajnah Bahtsul Masail activities, commonly known as Bahtsul Masail. This study aims to examine: (1) the process of implementing critical thinking in Bahtsul Masail activities, and (2) the supporting and inhibiting factors influencing its implementation. The research employs a qualitative approach with a case study design. Data were collected through interviews, observation, and documentation involving the pesantren caretaker, LBM administrators, and santri. Data analysis was conducted using source triangulation techniques to ensure validity and credibility. The findings reveal that the implementation of critical thinking in Bahtsul Masail requires santri to identify problems, analyze classical Islamic texts, construct arguments, and formulate solutions to contemporary issues. Supporting factors include adequate facilities, motivational reinforcement regarding the importance of Bahtsul Masail, students’ enthusiasm, routine classroom deliberations, and structured LBM management. Inhibiting factors consist of limited student motivation, insufficient literacy in classical texts and Arabic grammar, and lack of coordination among LBM administrators, which may reduce the effectiveness of the program.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the implementation of Active Learning in the teaching of classical Islamic texts (kitab kuning) within the Takhasus Program at Markaz Arabiyah Pare and its implications for pesantren pedagogy. Employing a qualitative field research design, data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The findings reveal that while the epistemic structure of classical texts—such as grammatical analysis (nahwu-sharaf) and the reading of unvocalized texts—remains preserved, instructional strategies are implemented in a participatory manner through small group discussions, student presentations, and the “everyone is a teacher here” technique. This approach encourages students’ intellectual engagement in reading, analyzing, and articulating textual meanings independently. The study demonstrates that the integration of Active Learning does not dismantle the pesantren tradition but revitalizes its pedagogical practices into a more dialogical and constructive model. It highlights the methodological flexibility of pesantren education in adapting student-centered learning approaches while maintaining scholarly authority and ethical values of knowledge transmission.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of using Flipcard Mini media based on visual storytelling on students’ learning outcomes in the Pancasila Education subject for fourth-grade students at MI Al As’ad Brambang Jombang. Flipcard Mini is designed to help students understand Pancasila values through two-sided illustrations that construct simple visual narratives. This research employed a quasi-experimental design using a one-group pretest–posttest model involving 30 students. Data were collected through learning outcome tests and analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test, indicated that the data were not normally distributed. The results show a significant increase between the pretest and posttest scores, demonstrating that Flipcard Mini effectively enhances students’ understanding of Pancasila concepts. These findings indicate that visual storytelling media can create more engaging, interactive, and meaningful learning experiences, making it a suitable alternative instructional medium for elementary school Pancasila Education.

Abstract

This article aims to analyze the faith development of Madrasah Ibtidaiyah (MI) children through the perspectives of James W. Fowler and Benjamin Jones. The study is motivated by the tendency of religious learning in MI to remain normative, transmissive, and memorization-oriented, which limits children’s religious experience and reflection. This research employs a qualitative approach using library research. Data were drawn from Fowler’s major work on Stages of Faith, Jones’s article on the reconstruction of faith development through a process-based framework, and supporting literature on developmental psychology and Islamic education. The data were analyzed through a conceptual-comparative approach by comparing Fowler’s stage-based model and Jones’s process-based model. The novelty of this article lies in integrating Fowler’s stage theory and Jones’s process-based approach to examine MI children’s faith development within Islamic religious learning. The findings show that MI children are generally situated within the intuitive–projective and mythic–literal stages, marked by concrete, symbolic, narrative, and literal understandings of religion. Jones’s perspective further indicates that children’s faith develops through religious socialisation and early questioning. The synthesis affirms that children’s faith development involves both developmental structure and meaning construction. This study implies the need for Islamic religious learning in MI to be more contextual, dialogical, reflective, and experience-based.

Abstract

This study compares the learning outcomes between two groups from equivalent schools. One group underwent an assessment to identify the genetic intelligence types of both teachers and students. Teachers in this experimental group, having become familiar with their own and their students' genetic intelligence types, received additional training tailored to these intelligence types. The results indicated a significant difference in learning outcomes between the experimental and control groups, as evidenced by an Independent Samples t-Test yielding a two-tailed p-value of 0.001 (p < 0.05). Furthermore, the experimental group's average post-test score was 73, compared to 69.62 in the control group.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the process of reconstructing Islamic educational identity carried out by Pesantren Tebuireng through the development and implementation of a curriculum based on traditional values contextualized for the modern era. The main focus of this research is the classical text Adabul ‘Alim wal Muta’allim by Hadratus Syaikh Hasyim Asy’ari, a foundational work that holds a significant position within the pesantren tradition as a reference for ethics and pedagogy. Using a qualitative method with textual and contextual approaches, this research traces how the noble values contained in the text are reinterpreted to address the challenges of modern education. Data were collected through comprehensive literature studies and in-depth interviews with caretakers, teachers, and curriculum developers within the Pesantren Tebuireng environment. The findings indicate that Adabul ‘Alim wal Muta’allim functions not only as a moral guideline in the teacher-student relationship but also as a strategic tool for character formation, the strengthening of spirituality, and the development of students’ integrity. Universal values such as sincerity, humility, responsibility, and proper conduct in the pursuit of knowledge are integrated into a curriculum framework that is relevant to contemporary developments. This curricular strategy demonstrates that Pesantren Tebuireng is not merely preserving tradition but is consciously and purposefully transforming education. Thus, the pesantren is able to build an Islamic educational identity that is dynamic, contextual, and firmly rooted in Islamic values, while also actively responding to current social and intellectual challenges.

Abstract

This community service program aims to enhance the pedagogical skills of students in the Primary School Teacher Education (PGMI) Study Program in designing Deep Learning–based lesson plans (RPP). The program was implemented to address the urgent need for prospective teachers to meet the demands of the Merdeka Curriculum, which requires meaningful, student-centered, and competency-based learning. Many PGMI students still struggle to integrate Deep Learning principles into lesson planning, especially in formulating measurable objectives, selecting active strategies, and designing higher-order thinking assessments. The program involved 15 PGMI students as primary participants. Using a Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach, the program consisted of three stages: needs analysis, training, and mentoring. The needs analysis identified gaps in students’ understanding of lesson plan components. The training introduced theoretical foundations and practical models of Deep Learning–oriented lesson planning, while the mentoring phase provided guided practice in developing complete RPPs. Students contributed actively through reflective discussions, prototype development, and peer feedback. The results show a notable improvement in students’ pedagogical competence, reflected in an increase from an average pretest score of 31.5% to a posttest score of 43.2%, indicating an 11.7% gain. Deep Learning in this program refers to a pedagogical approach emphasizing conceptual depth, problem-solving, reflection, and higher-order thinking. Overall, the program strengthened students’ readiness to become professional and adaptive teachers capable of designing learning aligned with the Merdeka Curriculum.

Abstract

Students' morality and character are greatly influenced by Islamic religious education.  As a result, the learning process must be carried out as effectively as possible at home and in the classroom using a variety of methods, strategies, and models.  However, in practice, a lot of PAI classes continue to use traditional approaches that center on the instructor.  Low student active participation results from this.  Innovation in the use of learning models that can boost student engagement and comprehension is required to get past this.  The purpose of this study is to explain how the differentiated learning-based think talk write (TTW) learning model is implemented and examine how the model affects student learning results. With a Quasi Experiment Nonequivalent Group Design research design, a quantitative methodology is employed.  Tests, documentation, and observation were used as data collection methods.  The findings demonstrated that the differentiation-based TTW model significantly and favorably improved learning outcomes.  The fact that the experimental class's average posttest score increased to 87.14, higher than the control class's (61.86), is proof of this.  Furthermore, the independent sample t test computation results indicate a Sig. (2-tailed) of 0.000, indicating that Ha is accepted and Ho is rejected. Thus, this model is declared effective in improving students' PAI learning outcomes.
