Abstract

Abstract. This study aimed to investigate the challenges and strategies faced by undergraduate students in Islamic Higher Education when writing theses. The study had four participants, two of whom completed their degrees on time (SGO) and two who failed to do so (SGN). Despite both groups facing challenges and employing strategies, they had some differences in their experiences. Common issues faced by both groups were difficulty generating ideas, selecting a topic, feeling confused and anxious, and procrastination due to various reasons. SGN students faced additional problems such as laziness, unexpected events, and issues with supervisors. The study also found that family support and spiritual practices like prayers and invocations helped students complete their theses. The support and encouragement from their parents served as a significant boost to the students' motivation in finishing the thesis. The study highlights the importance of surrendering to Allah's plan and trusting His wisdom, as well as maintaining a positive outlook and seeking support from family and spirituality. Overall, the study uncovered various problems faced by undergraduate students and the strategies they used to deal with them, emphasizing the importance of perseverance and relying on Allah's guidance.Keywords: Thesis Writing, Challenges, Strategies, Islamic Higher Education, Narrative Inquiry

Abstract

This study analyzed Yılmaz Köylü's TED Talk on future education using a corpus-based approach to identify key lexical features and provide insights into its linguistic structure. The analysis involved transcribing the TED Talk and examining various linguistic metrics, including word frequency, document length, vocabulary density, readability, and collocations using Voyant Tools. The results indicated that the talk contains 2,740 words, with 706 unique forms, demonstrating a rich and varied vocabulary. Key themes such as education, technology, skills, creativity, and innovation were prominent, emphasizing their interconnected roles in shaping the future of education. The readability index corresponded to a 10th-grade level, making the content accessible to a wide audience. Additionally, the analysis revealed a high average number of words per sentence, indicating the use of complex sentence structures. Recommendations for improving readability included simplifying sentences by breaking longer ones into shorter, more concise statements. The study underscores the need to adapt education systems to meet the evolving demands of a rapidly changing world, with technology and creativity playing central roles.

Abstract

This research aims to analyze one of Deddy Corbuzier's podcast titles on YouTube using Norman Fairclough's Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) approach. Analysis was carried out on three dimensions of CDA, namely text, discourse practice, and social practice. This research uses a qualitative descriptive method with the CDA Fairclough approach. The CDA approach allows for in-depth analysis of how podcast titles reflect and shape ideology, power, and identity. The research results show that the podcast title contains complex discourse content and is related to relations of power and domination in society. The findings reveal that the title reflects societal discontent with governmental performance and advocates for new leadership capable of fostering positive change. Fairclough's CDA illuminates how the title constructs and reinforces power relations within Indonesian society, employing provocative language to incite debate and engage viewers emotionally. This analysis underscores the role of media in shaping   DOI: public discourse and influencing perceptions. By critically evaluating media content, this study contributes to understanding how language and discourse strategies can shape ideological perspectives and societal expectations. Ultimately, the podcast title serves not only as a critique of current governance but also as a catalyst for broader discussions on leadership and societal transformation in contemporary Indonesia.

Abstract

Madrasah as one of educational institutions under Ministry of Religious Affairs in Indonesia has been rapidly enhanced to construct civilized generations that can contribute to the Muslim transmission. One of which is through the concern on developing student’s academic tenacity in some learning subjects of astronomy, physics, chemistry and biology in madrasah. Regarding to this growth, this article is intended to elaborate the inspiring students’ profiles at secondary madrasah of Insan Cendekia Serpong (ICS) for their grit, independence and perseverance in education that they excel astronomy, physics, chemistry and biology. By interviewing the students, teachers, parents and peers, and documenting the management of institution, this research elucidates that the socio-cultural factors and the students’ beliefs in nature can optimize the students’ intrinsic and extrinsic motivations for the advancement of their academic tenacity in natural science subjects. Accordingly, the exemplary students of madrasah can be the agent of change maintaining tradition of being knowledge pioneer that instill a self-concept of being a scientific and religious scholar. Madrasah is also an appropriate institution to integrate and deepen student’s spirituality and modern knowledge.
