Abstract

North Galesong Sub-district, Takalar Regency, South Sulawesi, Indonesia, has considerable coastal tourism potential that requires sustainable management to prevent environmental degradation. This study aimed to evaluate the carrying capacity of the Galesong Beach tourism area as a basis for sustainable tourism management. Field surveys were conducted at Galesong Beach in Sampulungan Village, using primary data collected through observations, environmental measurements, interviews, and visitor questionnaires. The data included tourism area size, visitor characteristics, environmental conditions, management capacity, and visitor length of stay. The carrying capacity of a tourist area is estimated using the Physical Carrying Capacity (PCC), Real Carrying Capacity (RCC), Management Capacity (MC), and Effective Carrying Capacity (ECC) equations. The tourism area covered 1.8 ha, with 15,200 m² available for tourism activities. The PCC was estimated at 170 visitors per day, exceeding the average visitation of 50 visitors per day. After considering environmental constraints, the RCC decreased to 42 visitors per day, while the MC reached 96.36%, resulting in an ECC of 40 visitors per day or approximately 1,200 visitors per month. These findings provide a scientific basis for regulating visitor numbers and supporting sustainable coastal tourism management in North Galesong.

Abstract

The implementation of Arabic proficiency testing in Indonesian Islamic State Universities presents several challenges and opportunities for improving students’ language proficiency. This study explores the experiences of students and educators in navigating the Arabic proficiency tests and examines the implications for institutional and pedagogical practices. The study focuses on three major challenges in the implementation of testing policy: (1) inconsistency in testing standards across institutions, (2) misalignment between the test content and the Arabic curriculum, and (3) inadequate institutional support for student test preparation. This study adopts a qualitative case study design of Arabic proficiency testing at the State Islamic Institute of Parepare (IAIN Parepare). Data were collected through policy analysis, test results, and interviews with students from various academic programs.  The findings indicate that students often perceive the test as difficult due to unfamiliar test formats and content that exceeds the curricular scope. Moreover, educators struggle to integrate test-oriented skills into regular instruction due to the lack of clear institutional guidelines. The analysis reveals that, while the tests play a critical role in assessing students’ language skills, these challenges hinder the policy's effectiveness. Despite these challenges, the study offers recommendations for improving the standardization of testing procedures, aligning the curriculum more closely with the tests, and enhancing institutional support to prepare students better. Addressing these issues will help create more equitable and accurate assessments of Arabic proficiency across all institutions.
