Abstract

People often say that literacy is the foundation for a person's lifelong education. Improving students' literacy skills is one of the main focuses in today's education world. Literacy, which includes reading, writing, and understanding information well, is an essential foundation in the learning process at all levels of education. Good literacy skills help students succeed academically and equip them with the critical and analytical thinking skills needed in everyday life. We need to consider literacy development because it is a fundamental ability that every individual must possess to navigate life in the future. This study aims to develop a strategy to improve the literacy of fifth-grade students at SD Negeri Potrobangsan 2 through a combination of library visits and the Gemini AI program. We expect library visits to cultivate students' interest in reading physical books, while the Gemini AI program serves as an interactive digital literacy medium to enhance students' learning experiences. This research approach uses a qualitative method with observation, in-depth interviews, and focus group discussions (FGD) as the primary instruments for data collection. The study results indicate that integrating traditional literacy learning with digital technology can improve students' literacy skills holistically. Students showed increased reading comprehension, higher involvement in literacy activities, and mastery of digital literacy skills. Implementing this strategy also increased motivation among students to read and utilize the library optimally. Therefore, elementary schools can apply this strategy as an effective literacy learning model.

Abstract

Internationalization plays a crucial role in enhancing the quality and global recognition of Islamic higher education institutions in Indonesia. This study investigates how these institutions implement internationalization by drawing insights from the experience of Monash University in Australia. Using a qualitative case study approach, data were collected through interviews and document analysis. The findings indicate that while Islamic higher education institutions have implemented key aspects of internationalization, there is still room for improvement. Institutions must continuously enhance educational quality while maintaining their unique identity to attract international students. Greater autonomy in financial and administrative management is necessary to align Islamic universities with other leading public institutions. Policy support from the government is essential in ensuring institutional autonomy and protecting human resource rights without excessive intervention. Seeking international accreditation through relevant accrediting bodies is also critical in strengthening global competitiveness. These findings highlight the need for strategic efforts by university leaders, government, and stakeholders to advance the internationalization agenda in Islamic higher education. Strengthening institutional autonomy, improving quality standards, and achieving international accreditation will contribute to greater global engagement and recognition of Islamic universities in Indonesia.
