Abstract

Grammar courses often pose significant challenges for undergraduate students, particularly when instructional methods fail to align with their learning needs. This study explores the real-life experiences of four students enrolled in a mandatory grammar course at UIN K.H. Abdurrahman Wahid Pekalongan (UIN Gusdur), focusing on the obstacles they encounter and their efforts to overcome them. Using a narrative inquiry approach, the research gathered data through in-depth interviews and surveys to document the students’ individual perspectives. The findings highlight several critical issues, including ambiguous teaching methods, limited vocabulary acquisition, and difficulties in applying grammatical tenses across different contexts. These challenges are compounded by a lack of sufficient support, which undermines the students’ ability to grasp essential grammatical concepts. Despite these difficulties, the students demonstrated resilience by actively seeking supplementary resources and adopting independent learning strategies. The results underline the importance of targeted pedagogical interventions to address the specific needs of grammar learners. This study concludes by emphasizing the need for educators to provide tailored support and resources while encouraging students to take an active role in their learning. By combining personalized instruction with student initiative, grammar education can become more effective and engaging for learners.

Abstract

Leadership plays a vital role in shaping the effectiveness of student organizations as platforms for developing future leaders. However, limited attention has been given to the specific leadership attitudes expected by members toward their organizational chairperson in non-formal educational settings. This study aims to identify the ideal leadership attitudes perceived by members of student organizations at the Faculty of Education and Teacher Training, UIN K.H. Abdurrahman Wahid Pekalongan. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, data were collected through semi-structured interviews with sixteen participants from six organizations and were analyzed thematically. The findings reveal five key attitudes communicativeness, critical thinking, assertiveness, inclusiveness and responsibility, and motivation as essential elements of ideal leadership. These results suggest that effective leadership in student organizations requires not only managerial competence but also empathy, emotional intelligence, and consistency. The study recommends integrating these attitudes into leadership development programs to foster inclusive, reflective, and empowering leadership behaviors that enhance organizational harmony and member motivation.

Abstract

Pembelajaran matematika di madrasah ibtidaiyah sering kali dihadapkan pada tantangan abstraksi konsep dan rendahnya motivasi belajar siswa, terutama pada materi Kelipatan Persekutuan Terkecil (KPK). Banyak pendekatan pembelajaran belum mampu mengintegrasikan aspek kognitif, afektif, dan spiritual secara menyeluruh. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengeksplorasi penerapan metode Lompat Tali Dzikir dalam pembelajaran KPK di madrasah ibtidaiyah, serta mengkaji dampaknya terhadap pemahaman konsep, keterlibatan belajar siswa, dan integrasi nilai spiritual melalui permainan tradisional. Studi ini menggunakan metode kualitatif deskriptif dengan teknik pengumpulan data melalui observasi, wawancara, dan dokumentasi terhadap guru dan siswa kelas V madrasah ibtidaiyah. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa metode ini mampu meningkatkan keterlibatan dan pemahaman siswa terhadap konsep KPK secara konkret, serta menghidupkan kembali permainan tradisional yang mulai ditinggalkan. Selain itu, aktivitas dzikir yang terintegrasi dalam proses belajar memberikan penguatan spiritual yang berdampak positif pada sikap dan karakter siswa. Penelitian ini mengisi celah kajian sebelumnya yang jarang mengaitkan pembelajaran matematika dengan elemen budaya dan spiritualitas secara simultan. Metode ini berpotensi menjadi alternatif pembelajaran kontekstual-religius yang mendukung penguatan profil pelajar Pancasila dan nilai-nilai Islam.
