Abstract

This study examines UIN Syekh Wasil Kediri undergraduates' work-related competencies through the Discrepancy Evaluation Model (DEM) lens. Recognizing that modern bachelor‐level programs are increasingly geared toward employability, this evaluative field research employs Provus' DEM framework alongside a convergent mixed‐methods design. Qualitative insights were gathered via interviews, observations, and document analyses, while quantitative data were obtained through a structured questionnaire. A total of 386 students from the PBA, IAT, and PAI programs participated. We adopted Spencer and Spencer's five‐factor competency model to establish performance standards, motives, traits, self‐concept, knowledge, and skills. The questionnaire, developed in collaboration with the Insight Yogyakarta Institute, set a benchmark of 87 points as the minimum acceptable score. The process phase measured student performance, revealing that 51.3% (n = 198) met or exceeded this threshold. Notable gaps emerged in motives (mean = 15.87) and skills (mean = 18.16), attributable to intense labor‐market competition and a curriculum that insufficiently nurtures interpersonal and technical proficiencies. This study contributes to developing recommendations in the form of targeted interventions to improve students' work competencies, namely through motivational seminars and skill development workshops for students and pedagogical development programs for lecturers. This article has implications for enriching work competency theory, curriculum development strategies, and institutional evaluation design.

Abstract

The yellow book as a compulsory curriculum in Salafiyyah Islamic boarding schools includes intolerant teachings, especially in the chapters of jihad and hudud. However, the students at this pesantren showed extraordinary tolerance and avoided cases of religious violence. This sketch shows that the students did not just learn and explicitly follow the teachings of centuries-old religious texts. This article reveals the guidance of kyai (Islamic religious leaders) in shaping the attitude of tolerance of students through the interpretation of the yellow book. With a qualitative approach in the form of a case study, this study interviews the kyai who act as supervisors and teachers at the Sabilurrosyad Islamic boarding school in Malang. The findings of the study revealed that the kyai consistently guided their students in understanding classical texts based on their socio-cultural background, by emphasizing obedience to the government, respecting local wisdom, considering social conditions, and maintaining tolerance of other religions. In conclusion, kyai plays an important role as an interpreter of the yellow book so that students have a moderate understanding.

Abstract

This article examines the actualization of andragogical learning strategies for higher education in disruption era. Disruption era as an effect of globalization demands optimal integrity of an individual so that they can live their lives well. College students as adult learners are expected to be able to interpret and work around so that the learning they do can run effectively for their future. The library research qualitative approach is chosen in order to compile various relevant references related to andragogical learning strategies in a holistic manner. Based on studies from several references, it can be concluded that andragogy is very relevant to the needs of college students as adult learners. Desire to learn, ability to learn, means to learn, and need to learn become the consideration of the relevance of the concept of andragogy to the needs of college students. On the other hand, the principle of andragogy is also very synergistic with the development of learning independence from a learner. The development of a very rapid disruption era led to changes in learning patterns, from teacher centered to student centered. The andragogical learning process must consider the learner's needs and some aspects of individuality as uniqueness and potential that must be developed. The assumptions that underlie andagoogical learning strategies in tertiary institutions are that students must understand their learning orientation, have a responsible self-concept, learn their life experiences, realize their readiness to learn, learn in concrete, and strengthen their intrinsic motivation. The actualization of andragogical learning strategies can be maximized by studying the learning process contextually, increasing participation in learning, and utilizing the advancement of science and technology. The internet must be optimized as a learning aid so that college students can understand the current conditions of the environment that they will face in the real world. Thus, the demands of the disruption era can be overcome through the actualization of andragogical learning strategies.

Abstract

Happiness is not a fixed entity but rather constructed by the individuals in their interaction with society. Happiness has been explored by religion, philosophy, and various academic disciplines, however, these concepts are constructed by the individuals following their respective contexts. Individuals’ understanding of happiness varies due to their unique circumstances. Therefore, it becomes important to study the concept of happiness that exists in society. This study is a qualitative field study. The respondents consisted of twelve individuals who are graduates of Islamic schools (madrasah) or Islamic boarding schools (pesantren) who work as teachers, traders, or farmers in Kediri Regency, East Java, Indonesia. Data collection methods which have been used in this study are documentation and in-depth interviews. The findings of the study show that respondents generally perceive happiness as a state of peaceful and contented mind due to the fulfilment of physical and spiritual needs accompanied by gratitude to God. In line with their views, their orientation towards happiness is generally religious or spiritual. For them, genuine happiness can be achieved when they can perform religious rituals and become closer to God. To attain genuine happiness, their religious or spiritual needs and desires must be fulfilled. However, they also do not have the same orientation towards happiness. The religious doctrines of happiness acquired from the madrasah or the pesantren seem to be maintained, although there are slight differences among the respondents. This indicates that their understanding of happiness is a construct based on the doctrines they have learned and their individual experiences over time.

Abstract

This paper focuses on the challenges and responses of pesantren in the information age. It starts from the assumption of pesantren as a subculture that filters out various external elements that seem more dominant to ensure the integrity of Islam. This character is the reason why pesantren can exist for a very long time. The purpose of this study was to determine the extent of the digital divide among santri at Salafiyah Islamic Boarding School. The method used is a mixed method with a Sequential Explanatory approach. The sample was taken from 100 santri at Al-Falah Ploso Islamic Boarding School, selected using a systematic random sampling technique. Data collection was carried out using questionnaires and interviews. The results of this study show that the digital divide experienced by santri is a gap in the stage of physical and material access, santri skills in operating gadgets, and the use of the gadgets themselves. Pesantren today also experiences cultural backwardness. This can be seen from the complexity of pesantren responses to the internet and the flow of digitalisation of pesantren that is not going well.

Abstract

This article aims to explore the construction of knowledge society-based PAI learning models in Islamic Religious Colleges (PTKI). This article was compiled based on qualitative research with a case study type. The locus of this research is UIN SATU Tulungagung and IAIN Kediri. Data collection methods used by researchers are interviews, observation, and documentation. The data analysis technique in this study is descriptive-analysis and content analysis. The flow used in interpreting this research is a qualitative data analysis technique with an interactive model proposed by Miles-Huberman, including the stages of data collection, reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. This article concludes that the competence of lecturers in the use of IT and the various competencies of students are still the biggest obstacles faced by UIN SATU Tulungagung and IAIN Kediri in implementing knowledge society-based PAI learning. In addition, the academic culture on both campuses has not run optimally. The two campuses have the same construction of the knowledge society-based Islamic education learning model, especially in terms of enforcing academic freedom in the lecture process, routinely discussing Islamic religious education lecturers to equalize perceptions in providing inclusive PAI material within the moderation frame, and optimizing the use of IT for Islamic Islamic education lectures. What makes the difference is that UIN SATU Tulungagung implements knowledge society-based PAI learning by applying a collaborative learning model to the lecture process. Meanwhile, IAIN Kediri focuses on implementing the cooperative learning model to optimize PAI learning in the classroom.
