Abstract

Meskipun teknologi telah menjadi bagian tak terpisahkan dari pendidikan modern, perannya di kampus berbasis pesantren masih menjadi topik perdebatan. Penelitian ini mengeksplorasi perspektif 35 mahasiswa EFL terkait kebijakan penggunaan gadget di sebuah universitas berbasis Pesantren Islam di Indonesia. Studi kasus kualitatif digunakan dengan memanfaatkan kuesioner, wawancara, dan observasi untuk mengumpulkan data. Temuan menunjukkan bahwa meskipun kampus secara ketat mengatur penggunaan teknologi digital, dengan memprioritaskan metode pembelajaran tradisional dan membatasi akses mahasiswa terhadap gadget, para mahasiswa merasakan adanya manfaat sekaligus tantangan dari pendekatan ini. Beberapa strategi telah diidentifikasi untuk membantu menciptakan keseimbangan antara norma budaya Pesantren dan penggunaan teknologi secara efektif untuk pembelajaran Bahasa Inggris.

Abstract

The existing literature has documented the success of the phonics approach in teaching early reading in school contexts. Yet, research examining how teachers implement this approach, particularly in non-formal educational settings, remains limited. This qualitative case study aims to explore and critically analyze the application of phonics in a private language course in Jember, Indonesia, as well as the associated challenges. The study involved four teachers from the institution, and data were collected through observations, interviews, field notes, and document analysis. The findings suggest that phonics can help guide very young learners to develop their early literacy skills when applied explicitly and systematically. However, phonics itself can prove more complex than anticipated. Due to its technical nature and lack of support for meaning comprehension, phonics should not be the sole approach in a reading class. Therefore, it should be incorporated with meaning-based reading approaches and adequate teacher training to promote effective phonics instruction.
