Abstract

Amid the global COVID-19 pandemic, the widespread adoption of online learning has become a prominent feature of education across the nation. This study delves into the experiences of both teachers and students in adapting to online learning, employing an online survey methodology. Given the unprecedented nature of this educational shift, it was essential to investigate how teachers and students, unaccustomed to this mode of instruction, navigated the challenges posed by the pandemic. The research collected data from public and private universities in Lahore, with a total of 430 participants (20 teachers and 410 students) contributing to the study. The online survey identified key areas crucial to the satisfaction of both teachers and students in the online learning environment, including student-faculty communication, technical support, well-organized online classes, and adaptations to facilitate practical coursework. This research represents an exploration of the dynamic and multifaceted nature of online learning in the context of a global health crisis

Abstract

The rapid development of technology has introduced various language learning resources, including podcasts, which offer authentic audio input but are often underutilized and lack structured application in EFL classrooms. Integrating gamification into podcasts represents a promising approach to enhance students’ engagement, motivation, and learning outcomes. This study aims to evaluate the impact of gamified podcasts on EFL students’ listening comprehension, learning motivation, and content retention. A quasi-experimental design was employed, involving university-level EFL students divided into an experimental group (gamified podcasts with interactive quizzes, leaderboards, and badges) and a control group (non-gamified podcasts). Pre-tests and post-tests assessed listening comprehension, motivation, and retention, with statistical comparisons conducted using t-tests and ANOVA. The results indicate that students exposed to gamified podcasts demonstrated significant improvements in listening comprehension, motivation, and retention compared to their peers in the control group. The interactive and competitive elements of gamification encouraged repeated engagement, active participation, and deeper cognitive processing of audio materials, which strengthened long-term memory and overall learning outcomes. These findings suggest that gamified podcast-based learning not only enriches traditional listening practices but also fosters a more engaging, motivating, and effective EFL learning environment. Consequently, integrating gamification into podcast instruction is recommended as an innovative strategy to support language acquisition and enhance students’ sustained involvement in learning activities.

Abstract

This study is motivated by the challenge of economic independence for Islamic boarding schools amid the transformation of their role in the modern era. Islamic boarding schools no longer function solely as traditional Islamic educational institutions, but have also developed as centers for economic and social empowerment of the community. However, dependence on uncertain external funding sources has prompted the need to develop a sustainable economic ecosystem for Islamic boarding schools in order to strengthen the independence of these institutions. This study aims to explore the development of Islamic boarding school financing management based on economic independence. This study uses a qualitative approach, with an exploratory sequential mixed methods design. The research method uses Research and Development (R&D) with the Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation (ADDIE) development model. The results of the study found that: 1) Financial management in two Islamic boarding schools has been carried out systematically through planning, funding diversification, governance, and continuous evaluation with a contextual approach. 2) The development of financial management has shifted from an administrative function to an economic independence strategy based on the integration of modern governance and Islamic boarding school values.

Abstract

This study explores the policy dynamics surrounding the implementation of the 21st-century skills-based curriculum, focusing on the perceptions and challenges faced by stakeholders at various educational levels. Through semi-structured interviews with teachers, principals, and policymakers, along with policy document analysis, the research identifies a significant gap between national policy design and its practical implementation at the school level. The study reveals that while the national curriculum emphasizes critical competencies such as critical thinking, creativity, and collaboration, there is a disconnect between these objectives and their classroom application. The main challenges include limited resources, cultural resistance, and lack of support from regional governments. The findings emphasize the need for a more flexible, context-sensitive curriculum that can be adapted to local needs. The study also emphasizes the importance of ongoing professional development and strong leadership to facilitate the adoption of innovative teaching methods. To address these challenges, the study calls for a coordinated approach involving national, regional, and school-level authorities to ensure effective curriculum reform. The research contributes valuable insights into the complexities of curriculum implementation and offers recommendations to improve educational policies and practices aimed at equipping students with the necessary skills for the modern world.

Abstract

Artikel ini mengkaji bagaimana Kecerdasan Buatan (AI) berkontribusi dalam memperkuat ketahanan rantai pasok industri di tengah meningkatnya ketidakpastian global. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi sejauh mana sistem berbasis AI dapat meningkatkan visibilitas rantai pasok, memprediksi potensi gangguan, memfasilitasi pengambilan keputusan adaptif, serta mengoptimalkan alur operasi pada jaringan industri yang saling terhubung. Dengan menggunakan metode analisis deskriptif, penelitian ini meninjau berbagai penerapan AI termasuk algoritma machine learning, pemodelan prediktif, alat peramalan otomatis, dan pemantauan real-time yang digunakan dalam lingkungan manufaktur dan logistik. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa AI mampu memperkuat deteksi gangguan, mempercepat tindakan mitigasi, dan meningkatkan kelincahan rantai pasok, sehingga memungkinkan industri untuk tetap beroperasi dalam kondisi yang bergejolak. Selain itu, optimalisasi berbasis AI mendukung pengendalian persediaan yang lebih efisien, waktu tunggu yang lebih singkat, serta koordinasi yang lebih baik antar mitra rantai pasok. Secara keseluruhan, temuan ini menunjukkan bahwa integrasi teknologi AI tidak hanya mengurangi kerentanan terhadap guncangan eksternal, tetapi juga mendorong ketahanan jangka panjang dan daya saing sektor industri. Studi ini menegaskan pentingnya adopsi AI sebagai strategi bagi organisasi yang ingin memperkuat sistem rantai pasoknya di era transformasi digital.

Abstract

Mythomanic behavior among adolescents is a serious issue in the educational world because it is often perceived as being overcome solely through rewards and punishments. This research aims to understand how kindness-based pedagogy can be used to reduce mythomanic behavior in adolescents, particularly at Miftahul Ulum Islamic High School, a school located in a rural area with a strong religious background. This study employed a qualitative method with a case study design, utilizing data sources that included students, teachers, and school documents. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observations, and documentation. Analysis is carried out through reduction, grouping, and narrative interpretation. The results show that five kindness strategies, such as empathetic listening, loving correction, exemplary kindness, peer support through kindness circles, and reflective practice with gratitude and kindness journals, are effective in creating a safe emotional atmosphere, fostering lies, and reducing students' propensity to lie. This research contributes to the development of humanist pedagogical literature by providing a more empathetic, relevant, and sustainable approach compared to traditional models.
