Abstract

Many attempts have been made to shape the character of students, but not all of them have yielded satisfactory results. This article aims to investigate how dayah, an Islamic boarding school in Aceh, Indonesia, shapes the character of students. It involved three leading dayah in Aceh namely Dayah Darul Munawwarah in Pidie Jaya District, Dayah Babussalam Al-Hanafiyyah in North Aceh District, and Dayah Darul Ihsan in Aceh Besar District. The data for this qualitative study was collected through participant observation and in-depth interviews with twelve key informants. Then, qualitative descriptive techniques were used to analyze the data. The results showed that students at these educational institutions have characters that are beneficial to citizens such as mutual respect, frugality, discipline, critical thinking, and being protected from bad habits. These characters were formed by a number of treatments and conditions experienced by students while studying in dayah. Apart from interacting with dayah students, teachers, and employees, dayah students also interact with the community which allows them to gain access to the real world and directly confront community problems. This finding leads to some suggestions for teachers, educational institutions, and policymakers to adopt the education system practiced by dayah in shaping student characters.

Abstract

Poetry writers can express ideas and feelings in written form, and present a unity of imaginative language expression with a beautiful rhythm. In the digital era like today, the opportunity to write and publish poetry is wide open. Unfortunately, not all students can take advantage of this opportunity. This also happened to students who are Sanggar Seni Bakat Bumoe (SSBM) members at Bumi Persada University, Lhokseumawe, Indonesia. To solve this problem, this community service team carried out service by training SSBM students to utilize technology to write and publish poetry. Poetry writing training for SSBM students is carried out through three stages: planning, implementation and evaluation. The planning stage includes collecting data on SSBM students' knowledge and enthusiasm in writing and discussing SSBM leadership elements to prepare a training activity plan. The implementation stage includes explaining the nature of quality poetry and the opportunity to be accepted in print and electronic media. The implementation stage also includes mentoring students in writing poetry and checking and providing comments and suggestions on student poetry. After revising the poems according to the comments and suggestions, students were also asked to publish them on Instagram. At the evaluation stage, the service team conducted an evaluation and interviewed SSBM leaders and students regarding the implementation of the training. The results of the interviews showed that this training contributed to increasing the enthusiasm of SSBM students to write as well as increasing their knowledge and skills in writing and publishing poetry.

Abstract

Teachers in urban areas are typically the only ones who can employ such advancements. Fortunately, some English teachers in rural areas in North Aceh, Indonesia, make an unusual effort to integrate technology into their lessons. This fact has not attracted much attention from researchers. This study then attempted to look into how those teachers transform themselves by utilizing technology in the instructional process. This study sheds light on how rural teachers-despite limited resources-adapt and transform their teaching practices through technology. By examining their strategies and challenges, this study provides valuable insights into grassroots-level educational innovation in underserved regions, filling a critical gap in the literature on technology integration in rural contexts. Seven English teachers at six junior high schools in the area participated in this study. The data were collected through semi-structured interviews. The collected data were then analyzed using descriptive qualitative approaches, including data collection, data condensation, data presentation, and conclusion. Data analysis showed that teachers transform themselves through online and offline training, self-directed learning, preparing online learning materials and media, and collaborating with parents, community members, and stakeholders. This study highlights the need for professional development for rural teachers, policy recommendations for improved infrastructure, funding, incentives, and community engagement to bridge the digital divide in education.

Abstract

This study described the religious attitudes influenced by the Jawi Script upon people living in the Seulimeum Subdistrict of Aceh Besar District, Indonesia. The data for this qualitative study were gathered through interviews and observations that included three activities: behavioral observation, direct questioning, and direct disclosure. A checklist and field notes accompanied observations, while direct questioning and direct disclosure involved unstructured interviews with eight respondents. The data was then qualitatively analyzed using descriptive analysis techniques. The study's findings suggested that the Jawi script instructional process had influenced respondents’ religious attitudes toward aqidah, ibadah, morals, and social society. In the field of aqidah, Jawi script instructional process strengthened the aqidah that adheres to the creed of Ahlusunnah wal Jama’ah. They also rejected another aqidah, armed with knowledge from the Jawi Script. Religious attitudes also were reflected in ibadah activities under the knowledge learned from the Shafi'i school of thought's Jawi Script. Regarding morals and social society, Jawi script instructional process strengthened husband-wife relationships, strengthened social traditions with Islamic nuances, and fostered social unity.

Abstract

This study aims to describe students' perceptions of the role of Grammarly and QuillBot as artificial intelligence (AI)-based tools for providing feedback in writing instruction. Employing a qualitative descriptive approach, the research was conducted at three senior high schools in Lhoksumawe, Indonesia, with 12 purposively selected respondents based on their prior experience using both applications. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews lasting 30 - 45 minutes, analyzed using thematic analysis, and validated through data triangulation and member checking. The findings indicate that the majority of students perceived Grammarly as effective in detecting grammatical, spelling, and punctuation errors, with its explanatory features aiding their understanding of error patterns. QuillBot was regarded as superior in paraphrasing, enriching linguistic variation, and reducing plagiarism risks. Both tools accelerated the revision process, enhanced confidence, and improved language accuracy. However, identified challenges included limitations of free features, potential meaning distortions in paraphrasing, cultural-context mismatches, and risks of overreliance. The findings underscore the importance of a "human-in-the-loop" model that integrates AI's speed and consistency with teacher validation and contextual assessment. This blended feedback strategy holds potential for improving writing quality while fostering students' critical thinking and self-evaluation skills. The study recommends AI literacy training, restricted use in final revision stages, and classroom discussions based on AI-generated corrections to promote more reflective and effective writing instruction.

Abstract

Many Indonesian pesantren (Islamic boarding schools) adopt bilingual policies requiring daily English communication, yet limited teacher proficiency often hinders their effective implementation. This study investigates the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) SpeechAce to enhance teachers’ speaking skills for daily communication in a pesantren in Lhokseumawe, Aceh, Indonesia. Using a mixed-method explanatory sequential design, 29 teachers participated in a one-month intervention consisting of AI-based practice and training, pre- and post-tests, reflective logbook, and semi-structured interviews. Quantitative results revealed consistent improvement across pronunciation, fluency, vocabulary, and grammar, with vocabulary and grammar showing the greatest gains. Qualitative findings highlighted teachers’ positive perceptions of AI in promoting self-regulated learning and as an anxiety-reducing tool for speaking practice, despite challenges such as technical issues and the need for a longer and a more structured guidance from a human-teacher. While AI SpeechAce effectively enhanced teachers’ speaking confidence through safe, feedback-driven practice relevant to their daily communication, its limitations shaped by linguistic gaps and technical challenges, underscore the need for future blended models and extended interventions to ensure stronger transfer into real-world communicative spoken English skills.

Abstract

This study examines the role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in English Language Teaching (ELT) at Almuslimun Islamic Boarding School in North Aceh, with a focus on its impact on pedagogy and student learning. Conducted from March to May 2025, the research engaged six English teachers—three from junior high school and three from senior high school—to explore their experiences with AI tools. Using a qualitative approach, data were collected through classroom observations, interviews, and teacher reflection journals, providing insights into how AI enhances ELT. The findings reveal that AI facilitates personalized learning by adapting content to individual student needs, boosts engagement through interactive applications like language-learning chatbots, and improves teaching efficiency via automated assessments and feedback. However, challenges such as limited technological infrastructure, gaps in teacher training, and the need to align AI use with Islamic educational values were also identified. The study underscores the potential of AI to transform language education in religious boarding schools while emphasizing the importance of context-sensitive implementation. Practical recommendations are provided to help educators and policymakers integrate AI effectively, ensuring it complements traditional teaching methods without compromising the school’s cultural and religious ethos. This research contributes to the broader discussion on AI in education, particularly in faith-based institutions, where the adoption of technology must strike a balance between innovation and institutional values.

Abstract

This study aims to interpret the pragmatic meanings of emotional utterances in Acehnese used by students at Universitas Bumi Persada during informal communication. The emotional categories examined include happiness, anger, sadness, disappointment, fear, embarrassment, and surprise/confusion. The study employed a qualitative approach using a descriptive research design. The data consisted of 36 emotional utterances collected through participant observation, audio recordings of naturally occurring conversations, and field notes. Data analysis was conducted using Searle's (1969) Speech Act Theory, Grice's (1975) Conversational Implicature Theory, Sperber and Wilson's (1995) Relevance Theory, and Leech's (1983) Politeness Principle. The findings reveal that emotional utterances in Acehnese are not always expressed explicitly but are frequently conveyed through conversational implicatures, indirect expressions, and politeness strategies such as humility, reassurance, and avoidance. The pragmatic meanings of these utterances are constructed through inferential processes that rely on communicative context, interpersonal relationships, and shared knowledge. These findings demonstrate that Acehnese functions not only as a means of communication but also as a medium for expressing emotions and maintaining social harmony in students' interactions.

Abstract

This study attempted to investigate the role of context in interpreting Acehnese proverbs. It was conducted on forty-two Acehnese students studying at Bumi Persada University in Lhokseumawe, Indonesia. Data were gathered via online questionnaires with multiple-choice questions. Respondents were invited to answer the questions in two sessions. Respondents' scores in the first session represent their ability to interpret the meaning of proverbs without context, whereas respondents' scores in the second session describe their ability to interpret the meaning of proverbs using context. Their scores from both sessions were compared to see if there were any gains between them. The result of the data analysis demonstrated that the average score of respondents answering questions about Acehnese proverbs with context increased when compared to the average score of respondents answering the same questions without context. This increase in score demonstrates the need for context when interpreting Acehnese proverbs.
