Abstract

The Snowball Throwing Games method has proven effective in enhancing students' descriptive writing skills. Beyond measurable improvements in academic performance, this interactive and collaborative approach increased student motivation and fostered a more engaging classroom atmosphere. The method encouraged active participation, creativity, and self-expression, helping students build confidence and develop their writing abilities. Moreover, the method significantly improved students’ social interaction and teamwork, which positively influenced their ability to collaborate during writing tasks. Particularly in writing classes often perceived as challenging, the dynamic and supportive environment reduced student anxiety and minimized the fear of making mistakes. Each phase of implementation was strategically designed to facilitate classroom communication and highlight various aspects of the Snowball Throwing Games technique. These included student engagement, behavioral change, the development of critical thinking skills, and the integration of digital tools to support learning goals. The findings indicate that this method is both practical and effective in improving writing proficiency while fostering a positive and collaborative learning environment.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the strategies of Guidance and Counseling Teachers in helping students deal with subject teachers who do not master or prepare the material at MAN 1 Medan. With a qualitative approach through observation, interviews, and documentation, it was found that the learning process still faces serious obstacles, such as minimal variation in methods, lack of mastery of the material, and limited use of learning media. This causes students to become passive, lose interest in learning, and have difficulty understanding the material. To overcome this, BK Teachers implement various strategies, such as individual and group counseling services, classical guidance, and a persuasive approach to subject teachers. This strategy is effective in increasing students' motivation, mental readiness, and enthusiasm for learning, while creating a more conducive learning environment.

Abstract

This study aims to examine in greater detail how families with an Islamic educational background contribute to the formation of children’s religious values through consistent exemplary behavior in daily life. By employing a descriptive qualitative approach with a case study method, this research involved three Muslim families residing in Surabaya. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation to explore how parental behavior influences children's understanding and internalization of Islamic teachings. The study found that consistent parental practices such as performing daily prayers together, demonstrating honesty, patience, and compassion, and engaging in open discussions about religious matters play a crucial role in shaping children's spiritual and moral development. Children tend to imitate religious practices they observe at home, especially when reinforced through positive family communication and emotional support. The findings also show that the synergy between family practices and formal religious education further strengthens the children’s internalization of Islamic values. Parents with Islamic educational backgrounds are shown to have a stronger awareness of the importance of being role models and fostering a religious environment. This study emphasizes the concrete impact of parental consistency and conscious modeling in cultivating faith-based values, highlighting the family’s central role as the first and most influential educational setting for children.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the influence of peer relationships on truancy behavior of students at MTsN 2 Aceh Besar. The background of the study is based on the phenomenon of increasing truancy behavior which is strongly suspected to be influenced by the social environment, especially peers. This quantitative study uses a descriptive correlational method. The population in the study were all students in grades VIII-4 totaling 33 students and were used as samples through total sampling techniques. Data were collected using a questionnaire that had been tested for validity and reliability. The results of data analysis showed that there was a positive and significant relationship between peer relationships and truancy behavior with a Pearson correlation coefficient value of 0.484 (Sig. = 0.004) and a Spearman correlation test of 0.397 (Sig. = 0.022). The average score of peer relationships after being given classical services was 52.94, while the average score of truancy behavior was 56.76. These results indicate that the higher the influence of peer relationships, the higher the tendency of students to skip school. This shows that peer groups have a significant role in shaping student behavior, both positive and negative. This study also shows that classical guidance services can contribute to improving student social patterns, which has an impact on reducing the tendency to skip school. Therefore, the involvement of BK teachers in providing appropriate services is very necessary to help students form healthy relationships and support their learning process at school.

Abstract

This study aims to test the effectiveness of classical services based on animated video media in improving students' understanding of bullying behavior at MTsN 2 Aceh Besar. Using a quantitative approach with a pre-experimental one group pre-test and post-test design, the research sample consisted of 32 students in grades VII-4 selected through purposive sampling techniques based on the results of the bullying behavior questionnaire. The research instrument was a bullying behavior questionnaire that had been tested for validity and reliability. The results of data analysis showed that the average score of students' understanding decreased from 89.18 in the pre-test to 71.84 in the post-test. This decrease was interpreted as an increase in students' awareness of the forms and impacts of bullying. The paired sample t-test showed a significance value of 0.003 (<0.05), which indicated a significant difference between the scores before and after the intervention. These findings prove that classical services based on animated video media are effective in improving students' understanding of bullying behavior, including verbal, physical, and relational aspects.

Abstract

Final year students often experience academic stress caused by the pressure of completing their thesis, dynamics in the guidance process with lecturers, repeated revisions, and demands to graduate within a certain time frame. This pressure often has an impact on psychological disorders such as anxiety, mental fatigue, and even decreased academic motivation. Therefore, an appropriate intervention approach is needed to help students manage stress in a healthy way. One approach that has proven effective is the mindfulness technique, which is the practice of full awareness of current experiences without negative judgment. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of the mindfulness technique applied in group counseling services on reducing the level of academic stress in final year students of the Guidance and Counseling Study Program. This study used a quantitative approach with a pre-experimental design of one group pretest-posttest design. The sample consisted of 7 students selected by purposive sampling with criteria of moderate to high stress levels. The instrument used was an academic stress scale compiled based on three aspects, namely biological and psychological. The intervention was carried out through three mindfulness-based group counseling sessions which included conscious breathing exercises, the STOP technique, awareness of thoughts and emotions, and group reflection. using paired sample t-test showed a value of t = 3.894 with a significance of p = 0.008 (p < 0.05), which indicates a significant difference between the pretest and posttest scores. The average academic stress score decreased from 87.60 to 64.71, indicating that the intervention had a significant positive effect. Thus, it can be concluded that mindfulness-based group counseling services are effective in reducing academic stress levels, strengthening emotional regulation, and supporting the psychological well-being of final year students during the completion of their studies.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the forms of politeness in language used by students in academic interactions at STAI Syekh Abdur Rauf Aceh Singkil and the influencing factors. The research method employed is descriptive qualitative with data collection techniques including observation, interviews, and document studies. The results show that students generally apply principles of politeness in direct communication with lecturers and peers, such as using polite address terms, expressions of permission, and structured communication. However, in digital and informal communication, some violations of politeness maxims were found, including the use of brief, informal language and the absence of opening and closing greetings. Students’ politeness is influenced by Islamic values taught on campus, lecturers’ role modeling, and the students’ social environment. These findings suggest the need for the integration of communication ethics education into the curriculum and the development of academic communication guidelines, particularly for digital platforms. Consequently, a culture of polite academic communication can be sustainably nurtured and contribute to a harmonious and productive academic climate.
