Abstract

This study aims to investigate: the implementation of the communicative approach in teaching Mahārah al-Kalām at Islamic Senior High Schools (MA) from teachers’ perspectives; the implementation of the communicative approach from students’ perspectives; the supporting and inhibiting factors influencing its application; and the effectiveness of the communicative approach in improving students’ speaking skills (Mahārah al-Kalām) in MA. This research employs a descriptive qualitative approach to provide a comprehensive depiction of how the communicative approach is applied in teaching Mahārah al-Kalām at Madrasah Aliyah from the viewpoints of both teachers and students. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, and were further supported by relevant literature. The analysis followed the Miles and Huberman model, data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. Data validity was ensured through source and method triangulation to produce an accurate representation of the effectiveness of the communicative approach in enhancing students’ speaking abilities. The findings reveal that the implementation of the communicative approach in teaching Mahārah al-Kalām at Madrasah Aliyah is moderately effective. Teachers act as facilitators by integrating activities such as ḥiwār (dialogue), role play, and group discussions, while students demonstrate increased confidence and fluency in speaking. Supporting factors include teacher competence, student enthusiasm, and the presence of a bi’ah lughawiyyah (Arabic linguistic environment), whereas inhibiting factors consist of limited vocabulary, shyness, and insufficient supporting facilities.

Abstract

This study aims to identify the types of barriers to learning Arabic experienced by Madrasah Aliyah students in linguistic, psychological, and learning-environment aspects; to examine the internal and external factors contributing to these barriers; to analyze the pedagogical strategies and approaches implemented by teachers to overcome the challenges; and to evaluate the effectiveness of these pedagogical solutions in improving students’ Arabic language skills and learning motivation. The research employs a descriptive qualitative approach to portray the Arabic learning barriers at Madrasah Aliyah and to analyze teachers’ pedagogical solutions in a natural and contextual manner. Data are obtained through interviews, observations, and documentation, supported by both primary and secondary sources. The analysis applies the Miles and Huberman model through interactive processes of data reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing to ensure accurate, objective, and comprehensive findings. The results show that barriers to learning Arabic among Madrasah Aliyah students are multidimensional, covering linguistic, psychological, and environmental aspects, and are influenced by both internal and external factors. Difficulties in phonology, vocabulary, and grammar are exacerbated by anxiety, low motivation, and limited language exposure. The learning environment and teaching methods also tend to be less supportive. Teachers apply linguistic, affective, communicative, and managerial strategies to reduce these barriers and gradually enhance students’ language acquisition.

Abstract

This study aims to (1) determine the alignment of Arabic Language Lesson Plans (RPP) in Madrasah Aliyah with the standards of the current National Curriculum, (2) assess the quality of learning objectives, instructional materials, methods, and assessment components in the Arabic RPP based on National Curriculum principles, (3) analyze the factors influencing the quality of RPP development and implementation by teachers, (4) describe the implementation of the RPP in classroom learning activities, and (5) identify the challenges teachers face in developing RPPs in accordance with regulations, as well as the efforts undertaken to overcome these challenges. The research adopts a descriptive qualitative approach using interviews, observations, and documentation, followed by data analysis through the Miles and Huberman model and triangulation techniques to ensure data validity. The findings show that the conformity and overall quality of the RPPs fall into the “adequate” category, yet they are not optimal in implementing the scientific approach, integrating Higher-Order Thinking Skills (HOTS), and conducting authentic assessments. The quality of the RPPs is influenced by teachers’ understanding of the curriculum, pedagogical competence, and their ability to adapt instruction to students’ needs. Classroom implementation still relies heavily on teachers’ creativity in fostering communicative and character-oriented learning activities. Major challenges include limited training, difficulties in formulating measurable indicators, and minimal academic supervision. Efforts to address these issues are carried out through continuous professional development, MGMP (subject-teacher forum) collaboration, and institutional support aimed at improving the alignment of the RPP with National Curriculum requirements and 21st-century learning demands.
