Abstract

“Galak sireutôh, yö siribé” is a popular saying in Aceh, referred to the person who is anxious to do what he wants to. This study investigated the student teachers’ anxiety felt when using English orally during their learning. Using the adapted questionnaires from Young’s (1990), that has been adapted by Occhipinti (2009), it involved 46 students undertaking English Speaking in a higher education in Lhokseumawe, Aceh. The results show that the majority of the students like English very much; however, they spent little time for using it orally, ranging from 1 to 8 hours per week. Most of them also affirmed that their English speaking ability is bad. It was also found that most of the students were highly anxious when speaking English with high self-exposure, but less anxious when engaging in collaborative activities and when given enough time to prepare what they talk. Yet, several students seem to have trait anxiety as they are highly anxious in most learning activities. Most were highly anxious for speaking English individually. This is likely influenced by their contextual, social and cultural factors, such as people in Aceh are known as communal rather than individualistic society.

Abstract

Acehnese people have many culturallyunique mathematical treasures, such as for measuring size and volume. Some of which are different from the ones used in other parts of Indonesia and some have been rarely used and even unknown by today’s generation. However, research on the measuring scales in Aceh is scant. This study was carried out to understand the Acehnese people’s prevailing measuring scales used. These scales are ethnomathematics parts of the Aceh culture. The research was conducted in six districts. Snowball sampling was employed through which people who are knowledgeable on Aceh culture were selected for interview. It shows that the volume scaling units of ethnomathematics in the culture of Aceh society are kay, aree, naleh, gateng, gunca, and kuyan. 1 kuyan = 10 gunca; 1 gunca = 10 naleh; 1 naleh = 16 aree; 1 aree = 4 kay. The size and volume of the kay, aree, naleh, gateng scales vary in each district.Moreover, the language used for scales and meanings slightly varies, such as naleh that is used for measuring volume or size only in some districts of Aceh and for both volume and size in other parts of the province.

Abstract

Developing the Textbook of Classroom Action Research through Participatory Action Research: Quality and Challenges. Objective: This study collaboratively developed a Classroom Action Research (CAR) textbook and formatively evaluated its quality. Method: Using Participatory Action Research (PAR), this study collaborated with 29 teachers in Aceh to design, develop, and iteratively evaluate the textbook. During the design and development process, we formatively evaluated it through self-reflection, expert appraisal, questionnaires, and interviews to produce quality textbooks in terms of validity and practicality. Findings: Results showed that although most teachers initially did not understand CAR, there was an increase in their understanding and interest in implementing CAR with the textbook guidelines. Besides, the textbook’s validity and practicality increased as expressed by the teachers. Conclusion: Using PAR in writing CAR with the teacher improves the quality of the textbook, in terms of its validity and practicality.Keywords: teachers’ involvement, participatory action research (PAR), textbook quality. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.23960/jpp.v11.i1.202101

Abstract

Hiem, a form of Acehnese oral tradition rich in riddles and local wisdom, is gradually being forgotten by the younger generation. Revitalizing this tradition through education offers opportunities to enhance students' cognitive abilities, linguistic skills, and cultural identity. This study explores the impact and challenges of integrating Acehnese hiem-based ice breakers into Islamic Religious Education (IRE) learning. This qualitative field study was conducted at SDN Trans Despot Leungah, Aceh Besar. Data were collected through interviews, classroom observations, documentation, and post-test assessments. The sample consisted of 30 respondents, including teachers and students selected through purposive sampling. Data were analyzed through thematic categorization following verification and triangulation. Findings indicate that the use of hiem-based ice breakers significantly increased student engagement, motivation, and enthusiasm during IRE lessons. Students demonstrated improved Acehnese language proficiency and better learning outcomes. Teachers and students positively perceived the integration of local cultural content into classroom activities. However, a notable challenge was language diversity; not all students were fluent in Acehnese, necessitating differentiated instructional strategies. The implementation of hiem-based ice breakers not only enhanced classroom interaction and student focus but also served as an effective tool to preserve and transmit Acehnese cultural heritage within formal education. While the impact is promising, broader application requires pedagogical adjustments to accommodate linguistic diversity and curriculum integration.

Abstract

This study investigates the integration of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) curricula within Indonesian and Malaysian universities. Specifically, it examines how SDGs are represented in EFL curricula, how EFL lecturers perceive the integration of SDGs, and how they implement SDG-related content in their teaching practices. Drawing on Bronfenbrenners (2000) Ecological Systems Theory (EST), a qualitative narrative inquiry was employed, using document analysis of course outlines, lecture slides, and materials, and assessments, as well as semi-structured interviews with nine EFL lecturers from four universities. Course documents were analyzed using content analysis to examine SDG integration in the curricula, while interview transcripts were thematically analyzed, coded, and mapped onto ESTs microsystem and mesosystem levels. The content analysis of syllabi and course materials showed limited and inconsistent references to SDGs, with few explicit outcomes, activities, or assessments. Microsystem analysis showed all nine lecturers valued integrating SDGs in EFL to build students knowledge, skills, and attitudes; whereas, mesosystem data indicated the SDG implementation was driven mainly by individual initiative, with only sporadic program- or campus-level support. The nine lecturers also reported a mix of course-embedded activities and co-/campus initiatives to integrate SDGs. To move beyond ad hoc efforts, universities should embed the SDGs in learning programs and learning outcomes, provide SDG-ready materials and assessment rubrics, fund professional development, and offer rewards and incentives for supporting consistent integration.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of faculty guidance, self-efficacy, and the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on the acceleration of final project completion among students in the Islamic Religious Education (PAI) program at UIN Ar-Raniry in Banda Aceh. Delays in completing final projects often pose a major obstacle to timely graduation, influenced by both internal student factors and external factors. The research approach used was a mixed-methods design employing an associative-causal methodology. The population for this study consisted of PAI students at UIN Ar-Raniry who were working on their final projects (theses), a total of 490 students, with sampling conducted using proportional stratified random sampling. Data were collected through observation, documentation, and the distribution of structured questionnaires that had been tested for validity and reliability, and were then analyzed using descriptive statistical analysis. The research results partially indicate that: (1) faculty guidance has a positive and significant effect on accelerating the completion of final projects; (2) self-efficacy has a positive and significant effect on the acceleration of final project completion; and (3) the use of AI technology (such as tools for literature search, grammar checking, and data analysis) has been proven to significantly accelerate the process of students’ final project completion. Simultaneously, these three independent variables have a significant effect on the dependent variable. The findings of this study confirm that the integration of academic support (from faculty members), mental readiness (self-efficacy), and the use of modern technology (AI) is a crucial formula for promoting efficiency and accelerating the completion of students’ studies at PTKIN institutions.

Abstract

Objective: This study examines the cultivation of students' noble character (akhlakul karimah) through habituation at Islamic boarding school-based private high schools in Aceh Besar Regency. Method: This qualitative research utilizes a case study approach at two Islamic boarding school-based private high schools: SMAS Babul Magfirah and SMAS IT Ar-Rabiyah. Results: The findings reveal that the cultivation of noble character is implemented across five domains: spiritual and worship habituation, social morality habituation, etiquette in seeking knowledge habituation, unique boarding school culture habituation, and integration into co-curricular activities. The cultivation strategies are carried out through participatory planning, consistent implementation, multi-perspective evaluation, comprehensive stakeholder involvement, and the establishment of a conducive school climate. Teachers act as role models, mentors, supervisors, facilitators, and liaisons connecting school values with families. The study concludes that moral cultivation based on habituation and boarding school culture is proven effective in holistically shaping students' characters. Novelty: The implementation of these research findings is recommended for the development of character education models in boarding school-based educational institutions
