Abstract

Computer-Assisted Language Learning (CALL) has been widely implemented to support motivation and language development in English for Specific Purposes (ESP) instruction. However, empirical studies examining its use in English for Islamic Banking within Islamic higher education contexts remain limited. This study investigates the effectiveness of CALL in enhancing students’ motivation and language skills in an English for Islamic Banking course at an Islamic higher education institution. Employing a quasi-experimental one-group pre-test/post-test design, the study involved 20 undergraduate Islamic Banking students who participated in a CALL-based instructional intervention conducted over six sessions. Data were collected through language proficiency assessments based on an IELTS speaking rubric and a motivation questionnaire based on Keller’s ARCS model. The findings indicate a statistically significant improvement in language proficiency (t(19) = 2.42, p = 0.025, Cohen’s d = 0.53). In addition, Attention (d = 0.63), Confidence (t(19) = 2.29, p = 0.033, d = 0.52), and Satisfaction (d = 1.17) showed significant gains, with Satisfaction demonstrating the largest effect size. Meanwhile, the Relevance component showed no significant change (p = 0.33), possibly due to students’ prior perception of the course content as inherently applicable to their academic and professional goals. The study suggests that CALL can serve as an effective pedagogical approach for supporting learner motivation and language development in ESP courses within Islamic higher education, particularly when instructional activities are aligned with learners’ professional contexts in Islamic finance.

Abstract

The viral dissemination of the AI-generated image “All Eyes on Rafah” has had a profound global impact, igniting widespread humanitarian concern and political discourse. This study employs a qualitative-descriptive interdisciplinary approach, drawing on Agenda Setting Theory (McCombs & Shaw), Marshall McLuhan’s media theory, and Alexander Wendt’s Constructivism to analyze this phenomenon. Primary data comprise viral news reports and social media images documenting the Israeli bombing of Rafah refugee camps, which resulted in approximately 55 civilian casualties. Data collection involved comprehensive reading, detailed note-taking, and thematic categorization, followed by analytical stages of restatement, description, and interpretation. The findings underscore the pivotal role of AI and social media in amplifying humanitarian crises, demonstrating how media agendas shape public perception and influence international political responses. This research advances the understanding of the interplay between digital media, political communication, and human rights advocacy, highlighting both the transformative potential and ethical complexities of AI-generated imagery in mobilizing global attention and action.

Abstract

The study intends to investigate the effectiveness of digital storytelling in enhancing literacy and forming attitudes toward cash waqf among a group of college students majoring in Islamic banking study. This study applied a quasi-experimental design without a control group due to the limited number of participants. Twenty college students were involved in this study. In addition to a seven-week treatment, a set of questionnaires and semi-structured interviews were administered to the participants. The results demonstrate that the participants’ literacy levels and attitudes toward cash waqf showed an improvement after being taught using digital storytelling. Additionally, the participants showed enhanced understanding of the practical applications and benefits of cash waqf for ummah.  The present study is restricted by the relatively small number of participants and the absence of control group, limiting generalizability and causal inference. Hence, future studies should include larger samples and comparative designs to increase the validity of the findings. This study provides better insights toward the integration of digital storytelling into cash waqf education, enabling an innovative and engaging approach to encourage financial literacy and social awareness in Islamic finance contexts.

Abstract

The "All Eyes on Rafah" campaign, featuring an AI-generated image of a refugee tent formation spelling out the campaign's name, has emerged as a pivotal instance of global digital advocacy. This study examines the campaign in the context of Israel's devastating bombing of Palestinian refugee tents in Rafah, which resulted in significant civilian casualties. The research investigates how digital media and AI-generated imagery shape international humanitarian responses. Employing a qualitative, descriptive, and interdisciplinary approach, the study analyzes primary data sources through various theoretical frameworks, including viral images and news reports. The findings illuminate the transformative role of digital advocacy in influencing global perceptions and mobilizing humanitarian action, highlighting the potential of AI in such campaigns. This research contributes valuable insights to the media, political communication, and international relations fields. However, it is limited by its focus on a single case, indicating the necessity for further exploration of AI's broader implications in media and communication.
