Abstract

While previous research has extensively examined cross-cultural adaptation among international students, limited attention has been given to the specific role of linguistic intelligence in facilitating this process, particularly among Indonesian beginner students in Arab-speaking contexts. This study investigates how linguistic intelligence influences cross-cultural adaptation of Indonesian students in Egypt. Employing a mixed-method approach, this research combines field data from 120 Indonesian students' lived experiences in Egypt with a systematic literature review of relevant studies. Quantitative analysis reveals a significant positive correlation (r=0.72, p<0.01) between linguistic intelligence dimensions and adaptation outcomes, while qualitative findings highlight language learning strategies, communicative confidence, and sociolinguistic awareness as critical adaptation mechanisms. Results demonstrate that students with higher linguistic intelligence exhibit superior cultural adjustment, academic performance, and social integration. The study's implications suggest that pre-departure orientation programs should incorporate linguistic intelligence development alongside traditional language training, and educational institutions should assess students' linguistic competencies to provide tailored support systems for enhanced cross-cultural adaptation success.

Abstract

Despite extensive research on moral education, limited studies examine how Islamic education responds to Generation Z’s moral crisis amid Indonesia’s rapid digital transformation. This study explores the role of Islamic education in fostering moral resilience among urban Generation Z facing digital globalization challenges. Using a qualitative descriptive case study, data were collected through in-depth interviews with 15 Islamic Religious Education teachers, 5 school principals, and 30 students from five urban Islamic schools implementing digital-integrated learning. Data were supported by 120 hours of participatory observation and document analysis over six months. Findings identify five major manifestations of moral crisis: declining social empathy, with 62% of students prioritizing virtual over real interactions; exposure to harmful digital content affecting 87% of students; digital hedonism influencing 77%; rising individualism, with 68% preferring individual tasks; and weakened spiritual awareness reflected in a 60% decline in voluntary religious participation. Islamic education shows strategic potential through digital media integration, project-based learning that achieved 85% student engagement, and teacher digital role modeling. However, challenges persist, including limited educator digital literacy (68% lacking adequate training), non-contextual pedagogy in 60% of observed classes, and weak family–school collaboration. This study proposes a transformative framework integrating Islamic values with digital pedagogy for Indonesian Generation Z, contributing to SDG 4 (Quality Education) and SDG 10 (Reduced Inequalities) through culturally responsive moral education.
