Abstract

This study aims to investigate the potential of gamification as an innovative pedagogical strategy to reduce Arabic speaking anxiety and improve speaking performance. Speaking anxiety remains one of the most prevalent and persistent barriers to acquiring proficiency in Arabic, often hindering learners’ active participation and communicative fluency. While cognitive outcomes in language learning have received increasing attention, emotional variables, particularly anxiety, have been comparatively underexplored. Guided by the central research question, how does gamification influence learners’ Arabic speaking anxiety and speaking skill development? this study adopted a qualitative research design involving classroom observations, semi-structured interviews, and documentation within an intensive Arabic language program. Thematic analysis was employed to identify recurring patterns and interpret participants’ experiences. The findings indicated a notable reduction in speaking anxiety by 78%, an increase in student engagement by 85%, a 72% boost in self-confidence, and a 25% improvement in pronunciation accuracy. Gamified elements such as rewards, collaboration, and progress tracking emerged as particularly effective, and 68% of participants perceived these features as beneficial to their learning process. These results highlight the dual function of gamification in enhancing both cognitive and affective dimensions of Arabic language acquisition, especially in speaking. The study offers practical implications for language educators in designing emotionally responsive and interactive learning environments. Further research is recommended to explore the long-term impacts of gamification across varied learner profiles and proficiency levels.

Abstract

This study examines cultural representations in two English books used by pesantren educational institutions, the English Conversation Club (ECC) and the English Learners Association (ELA) at Pesantren Darussalam Blokagung. This study used a qualitative approach with a descriptive approach. Data collection was conducted through content analysis and interviews. Informant sources include textbook writers and English course instructors. In contrast, the data analysis used Miles and Huberman's data reduction, data analysis, and inference simulation techniques. The results showed that the textbook contained four cultural values: tolerance, equality, justice, and democracy. The value of tolerance is shown in the interaction between people from different cultures. The value of equality is shown in the inclusive delivery of materials. Both informative texts, conversations, and opinion writing exercises demonstrate fairness, and texts that emphasize balance in decision-making demonstrate a democratic approach. Textbooks do two things: they help students learn the language and 3protect the culture of boarding schools around the world. To help students become confident and culturally sensitive communicators in the era of globalization, this study suggests the creation of relevant teaching materials.

Abstract

So far, religious tolerance in the mass media has never been studied using metaphors in a cognitive linguistic approach. In fact, through conceptual metaphors, the framing of the mass media will emerge on the issue of religious tolerance. This qualitative descriptive research collects data on news and articles about religious tolerance in online Islamic mass media during the period 2018–2023. Data were analyzed using metaphor identification procedure, conceptual metaphor theory, and mixed metaphor. The results of the study show that there are 9 source domains, namely 1) TOLERANCE IS CLOTHES, (2) TOLERANCE IS SPACES/BUILDINGS, (3) TOLERANCE IS HUMANS, (4) TOLERANCE IS THE BODY, (5) TOLERANCE IS PLANTS, and (6) TOLERANCE IS ARE THINGS, (7) TOLERANCE IS A BUSINESS COMMODITY, (8) TOLERANCE IS WAR, and (9) TOLERANCE IS A VEHICLE. In general, the metaphor of tolerance in online Islamic mass media is classified into three tones, that is positive tones, negative tones, and neutral tones. Online Islamic mass media that have a positive tone are NU Online and Alif.id, mass media with a mixed tone (positive-neutral) is Suara Muhammadiyah and (positive-neutral-negative) is Hidayatullah.com, and mass media with a positive tone negative are Portal Islam, Suara Islam, VOA Islam, and Era Muslim.
