Abstract

This study analyzes the effect of oral presentation strategies on improving students' communication skills and self-confidence in an educational context, using quantitative research techniques. A group of students gave prepared presentations, and their performance was evaluated before and after the intervention. The results of the study show a significant increase in students' confidence when speaking in public, their understanding of the material presented, and their collaborative abilities during the planning and implementation stages of the presentation. There is also evidence that peer feedback and a supportive classroom can help students feel more calm, motivated, and active while they are giving a presentation.  These results show how important it is to teach pupils how to give oral presentations in school.  This way of learning encourages students to be involved and helps them grow as people, which is becoming more and more important in today's teaching methods. In addition, this study highlights the importance of utilizing technology to improve the quality and effectiveness of student presentations, which provides advantages in various educational contexts. Future research should investigate the long-term impact of this intervention on students' academic progress and career readiness, while considering demographic factors such as socioeconomic status and prior public speaking experience that may influence students' presentation skills. There is also proof that peer feedback and a supportive classroom can help students feel more comfortable, motivated, and engaged while they are presenting a presentation.   These statistics indicate how vital it is for schools to teach kids how to speak in front of a group.   This type of learning gets students interested and helps them grow as people, which is becoming more and more crucial in how teachers educate these days. This study also gives teachers useful tips on how to help kids improve their communication skills.

Abstract

The rapid development of urbanization in the era of globalization has created complex phenomena that not only affect the socio-economic aspects of society but also significantly impact the climatological and atmospheric conditions of urban areas. This phenomenon has become a serious concern in urban climatology studies due to its multidimensional effects, which are not limited to thermal comfort and energy consumption, but also potentially influence various human activities that depend on stable atmospheric conditions. This research raises two main questions, how does the urban heat island (UHI) phenomenon occur and what are its implications for weather in urban areas? and what is the correlation between UHI and the accuracy of determining the beginning of the lunar month (hilal) in Islamic astronomy (Ilmu Falak)? This study employs a qualitative, library-based research method using both syar’i (Islamic jurisprudential) and scientific approaches to explore the collaboration between astronomical concepts and the foundational principles of Ilmu Falak. Data were collected through library research by quoting, adapting, and analyzing relevant literature using content analysis. The findings were then reviewed and concluded. The results of the study indicate that the UHI phenomenon is caused by the reduction of green open spaces and the increase in urban activities, leading to temperature rise, atmospheric turbulence, and the formation of pollutant haze. These conditions reduce night sky clarity and interfere with hilal visibility due to diminished light contrast. The implications of this research enrich falakiah studies on the correlation between UHI and hilal observation (rukyatul hilal) and highlight the need for mitigation strategies by Islamic calendar-setting institutions to improve the accuracy of hilal observation and the timeliness of Islamic worship.
