Abstract

The background of this issue is the need for a comprehensive Islamic guidance model, given the weak understanding of faith and religious practices among converts after conversion. The purpose of this study is to develop a contextual and systematic curriculum and management model for Islamic guidance for converts in the city of Bandung. This study used a qualitative research method with a multiple case study design in three muallaf guidance institutions in Bandung City: Muallaf Centre Indonesia (MCI), Yayasan Muallaf Bandung, and the mosque's majelis taklim from January to June 2025. The informants in this study were institution managers, Islamic guidance instructors/teachers, community leaders, and active converts who participated in the guidance program. The data collection techniques in this study were in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation studies. The data analysis technique used the Miles and Huberman model, which includes data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing and verification. The results of the study indicate that strengthening the faith of converts requires a special curriculum that integrates theological, worship, and socio-cultural dimensions, while adaptive guidance management oriented towards individual needs has been proven to increase the effectiveness of the internalization of Islamic values. The contribution of this research is the formulation of a contextual convert guidance curriculum model that can be replicated by Islamic da'wah and educational institutions in similar areas. The synergy between curriculum development and managerial management is identified as a key element in strengthening the sustainability of da'wah for convert groups

Abstract

In the digital era, prospective Islamic Religious Education (PAI) teachers are expected to integrate religious knowledge with the ability to design appropriate technology-supported instruction. Preliminary observations at Universitas Singaperbangsa Karawang indicated a gap between students’ coursework experiences and their perceived readiness to develop interactive instructional media. This study examined the structural relationships among Learning Media Course Effectiveness, Emotional Intelligence, Media Design Competence, and Teaching Readiness, positioning Media Design Competence as a proposed mediating variable. A quantitative, cross-sectional design was employed, with structured questionnaire data collected from 58 third-semester PAI students and analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). Course Effectiveness (β = 0.295) and Emotional Intelligence (β = 0.411) were positively and significantly associated with Media Design Competence, jointly explaining 35.0% of its variance. Emotional Intelligence exhibited a numerically larger path coefficient, although the statistical significance of the difference between the coefficients was not established. Media Design Competence was strongly associated with Teaching Readiness (β = 0.728; f² = 1.126), with the model explaining 53.0% of the variance in readiness. These findings highlight the relevance of academic experiences and emotional abilities to media design competence and its association with teaching readiness. However, these findings do not establish full mediation because the corresponding direct paths are not reported, and the cross-sectional design precludes definitive causal conclusions.The study suggests integrating practical media design activities with support for managing learning challenges in PAI teacher education, while further research should test the proposed indirect effects and evaluate the effectiveness of such instructional approaches.
