Islamic Religious Education (PAI) plays a crucial role in shaping students' understanding and practice of Islamic values. However, conventional teaching methods that rely on memorization and lectures often hinder active student engagement. Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) is considered a promising model to enhance the effectiveness of PAI by connecting Islamic concepts to real-world experiences. Although CTL has been implemented across various subjects, its application in PAI faces distinct challenges in different educational settings. This study aims to analyze the challenges and solutions of implementing CTL in PAI at two Islamic schools with different backgrounds: MTs Al Anwar (a pesantran/Islamic boarding school) and SMP Al Jihad North Jakarta (a metropolitan Islamic school). A qualitative approach with a comparative case study method was employed, involving interviews, observations, and document analysis. The findings indicate that at the pesantren, the primary challenges are the dominance of rote memorization methods, a lack of case study-based teaching materials, and a lecture-based approach that does not support experiential learning. Meanwhile, at the metropolitan school, the main obstacles include student distractions from social media, a lack of critical thinking skills, and a curriculum that remains exam-oriented. To overcome these barriers, teachers at the pesantren have begun to develop experience-based teaching materials and incorporate more discussions. This study confirms that the successful implementation of CTL in PAI depends on adapting teaching strategies to the specific learning environment. Therefore, a more flexible curriculum, case study-based teaching materials, and teacher training are essential to support experience-based learning.

This study examines how educational priorities have changed in artificial intelligence (AI) research involving scholars affiliated with institutions in 34 Asian countries and territories. It analyses 1,585 English-language Scopus journal articles published between 2010 and 2026, with partial coverage for 2026 up to 23 May. Biblioshiny was used to map keyword co-occurrence, thematic positioning, and thematic evolution across three periods: 2010–2016, 2017–2020, and 2021–2026. TALL was applied to a random sample of 792 abstracts to elaborate on the educational meanings embedded in the bibliometric structures. The findings indicate a reorientation from computer-aided instruction, intelligent tutoring systems, and learning systems towards generative AI, ChatGPT, technology adoption, and emerging human–AI discourses. Higher education and students provide the field’s principal educational focus, although students are frequently positioned as technology users or as adopters. Pedagogical mechanisms, teacher agency, assessment redesign, and responsible-use competencies remain less integrated. AI literacy, academic integrity, ethics, and critical thinking are visible but remain embedded within the broader technology and adoption structure. Abstract-level patterns further revealed benefit-oriented framing around support, enhancement, and future potential, which should not be interpreted as evidence of educational effectiveness. The study contributes an education-centred account of how technological expansion has outpaced the conceptual integration of pedagogy, human agency, assessment, and responsible institutional conditions.

Data-driven decision-making has become increasingly important in educational management, yet its application in madrasah contexts requires attention not only to empirical evidence but also to the Islamic values that shape institutional practices. Previous discussions have largely addressed data-based management and Islamic educational values separately, leaving limited understanding of how both dimensions are integrated within managerial decision-making. This study aims to analyze the utilization of institutional data, examine the role of Islamic values in the decision-making process, and formulate a management model that integrates data and Islamic values at MTs Taufiqiyyatul Asna Pare. This study employed a qualitative approach with a case study design. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation and analyzed through data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that the madrasah uses academic, attendance, discipline, achievement, and service data as considerations in managerial decision-making. However, data utilization is selective and contextual, with attendance and discipline data being used more frequently because of their direct relevance to daily operational problems. The findings further demonstrate that data do not automatically determine decisions. Instead, empirical information is interpreted and deliberated through musyawarah, oriented toward consensus (mufakat), and guided by the principle of justice. The study proposes a madrasah management model in which data serve as an empirical basis for identifying problems, while Islamic values guide the deliberation, determination, implementation, and evaluation of decisions. This model contributes to a more evidence-informed, participatory, and value-oriented approach to educational management in madrasah contexts.
