Abstract

An evaluation for the development of a paper-based test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) for English Education Department students at one of the colleges in Langsa, Aceh, Indonesia, is necessary, considering their unsatisfactory scores even though the preparation program has been conducted. This research employed context, input, process, and product (CIPP) model developed by Stufflebeam upon the program. Methodologically, interviews, questionnaires, and observation were executed to five TOEFL lecturers and 34 students, while the data obtained were analyzed with the qualitative analysis method of Miles and Huberman. Based on the evaluation of context, the program had an appropriate background, goals, and objectives. Regarding the input, it still had problems related to the availability of resources and facilities. There were no standardized learning materials available, including the broken language laboratory. It affected the process since the lecturers could not maximize the facilities to create an effective learning environment. Eventually, it affected the product since most students could not reach an expected score. Most of the participants agreed that the program needed to be improved. Several improvements can be made to overcome these problems by providing required learning facilities, designing standardized learning materials, and clustering classes in accordance with students’ abilities.

Abstract

Our study portrays burial rituals practiced by Aceh Province, Indonesia, as this ethnic group has distinctive traditions for burying deceased members of society due to the intertwining of cultures and religions in Aceh. The intertwining of the Islamic tenet with the local cultures has constructed the burial rituals in Aceh differently from any Islamic community in Indonesia. To discover the ritual’s distinction as this study’s focus, we explored three aspects of the rituals: processes, meanings, and implications. We integrated a qualitative approach through an ethnographic study by observing three burial rituals and interviewing 45 informants across the province. As a result, the processes covered initial meetings, grave cleansing, ceremonious announcement, feast, and pilgrimage. Regarding the ritual’s meanings, we revealed that the Acehnese people practiced the burial rituals to expect God’s blessing and forgiveness for the deceased, represent gratitude and homage toward the left family, affirm the local customs, and consolidate kinship relations. A for the implication, the series of rituals in burying a dead person in Aceh serves as a way to establish a vertical relationship from people to God, along with a horizontal relationship, from person to person, which contains local wisdom representing the identity of Aceh. The urgency of burial rituals reflects communities’ harmony and adherence to cultural and religious beliefs regardless of any condition.

Abstract

The overarching objective of this research is to investigate a private boarding school’s character education program. Stufflebeam’s CIPP evaluation model served as the basis for the research, which covered the study’s context, input, process, and product. After administering a questionnaire to 35 second-year students, we compiled the necessary data through in-depth interviews with the principal and three teachers. The questionnaire was explored quantitively using regression analysis with a statistical application called SPSS statistics-25. Meanwhile, thematic analysis was utilized to analyze the qualitative data throughout condensation, and regression analysis from SPSS result to be used to conduct a quantitative investigation of the questionnaire. The qualitative data was analyzed using theme analysis throughout the condensation process, beginning with description, progressing through reduction, categorization, and interpretation of data. The results showed that the school positively affected students’ character development through the combination of academic and extracurricular programming. Similarly, pupils felt like they were making headway. Having full support from the institution, even from alums, is a massive plus for character-building programs. In return, the school gains the same merit, boosting the favorable profile of students so that the communities may recognize the school’s characteristics. A reciprocal advantage in developing students’ character is available between the school and the pupils.

Abstract

Lack of disaster preparedness has contributed to many disaster victims, especially people with disabilities, who are often neglected in making disaster risk reduction plans. In light of the recent World Conference on Disaster Risk Reduction (WCDRR) in Sendai, Japan, and the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction (SFDRR) 2015-2030, which establishes new priorities for disaster risk reduction over the next 15 years, this issue has become a hot topic since then. This paper aims to contribute ideas to the Indonesian government in reforming and improving disaster preparedness services for people with disabilities based on successful theories, research, and practices developed in several countries. Through reviewing literature studies related to the issue and interviewing relevant informants in Indonesia, both data sources coped with six strategies that may contribute to improving disaster preparedness for disabled individuals. The strategies as the results of this study are intended to be used as reference material, particularly by the Indonesian National Disaster Management Agency (BNPB), in order to aid in the creation of a framework to better comprehend the communication, mobilization, transportation, and medical requirements of people with disabilities in the context of preparing disaster preparedness program scenarios.

Abstract

Abstract: The embodiment of traditional values, which were replaced by Islamic values, is strongly tied to the application of sharia in the central Aceh regency of Bener Meriah. It is interesting to note that the application of Sharia in that region involved both anthropological and social factors. This qualitative investigation looked at the application of Sharia in Bener Meriah as a social phenomenon reflected in local residents' behaviours. Purposive sampling was used to select respondents for interviews, which served as the data gathering method. The findings showed three things. First, while the government and associated organizations continue to socialize the Sharia, it is primarily about interpreting Islamic law as a punishment for lash breakers. Second, the integration of Sharia ideals into social interactions is a goal of the establishment of Sharia. In addition to the traditional values of the Gayo culture, which have a long history, locals' awareness of Sharia also plays a vital role. Accordingly, based on the findings, the Sharia implementation is effective, especially in light of the few Sharia infractions that were discovered.Keywords: Muslim communities; Public views; Sharia implementation; Social construction

Abstract

The widespread integration of digital teaching platforms in education has prompted an exploration of their impact on teacher workload and well-being. This research focuses on understanding the effects of Platform Merdeka Mengajar (PMM), a prominent digital teaching platform in Indonesia, on the workload and well-being of participating high school teachers in Banda Aceh Municipality and Great Aceh Regency, Aceh Province, Indonesia. Utilizing a qualitative descriptive research design, six teachers were interviewed to explore their experiences with PMM. Thematic analysis of the interviews revealed that while PMM offers valuable resources and fosters professional collaboration, it also increases workload and stress due to additional preparation time and the need for technological adaptation. The study highlights the importance of providing targeted training, improving the platform's usability, and enhancing its integration features to mitigate these challenges. Despite its limitations, including a small sample size and potential biases in qualitative data, the study provides insights into the potential benefits and challenges of integrating digital platforms into educational practices in Indonesia. The findings underscore the need for a balanced approach to technological integration that supports teachers' professional development and well-being. A more supportive access is necessary to develop the digital platform to balance the nuanced dynamics of teachers’ workload and well-being.

Abstract

This phenomenological study explores the integration of AI tools in teaching English writing in rural Central Aceh, offering insights into the educators’ challenges and adaptive strategies. Amidst the global push towards digital education, rural areas often lag behind due to infrastructural deficits and limited access to advanced technological resources. This study aims to understand how AI tools are being utilized by teachers in such contexts to improve English writing skills. Conducted through semi-structured interviews with three high school teachers, the study employs a thematic analysis to uncover how educators navigate the complexities of using AI tools like ChatGPT, Grammarly, and Quillbot under constrained conditions. Key challenges identified include limited technological infrastructure, absence of formal training, and diverse student proficiency with technology. Despite these challenges, teachers have adopted innovative strategies such as shared computer time, collaborative learning, self-learning initiatives, and leveraging community support networks. The findings highlight the resilience and adaptability of educators in underserved regions, suggesting that enhancing technological infrastructure, providing targeted professional development, and developing user-friendly AI tools are crucial for bridging the educational divide. The study calls for a balanced approach to integrating AI in education, ensuring that it complements traditional teaching methods and fosters inclusive learning environments.
