Abstract

General Background: Islamic boarding schools play a crucial role in shaping students’ character and academic growth. Specific Background: However, the motivation of students in these institutions can decline due to monotonous teaching methods and limited program innovations. Knowledge Gap: Previous studies have rarely provided a comprehensive analysis combining causal factors, implemented efforts, existing challenges, and future strategic plans to sustain students’ learning motivation in pesantren settings. Aims: This study aims to identify the causes of decreased motivation, evaluate current improvement efforts, explore challenges, and outline future plans to strengthen learning motivation among santri. Results: Findings reveal key causes, including limited teaching variety, monotonous programs, and insufficient parental support. Current initiatives involve consistent guidance, strict discipline, regular monitoring, and beneficial additional programs. Challenges include uncontrollable student behavior, lack of parental involvement, and limited teacher competence. Planned programs focus on service and facility improvement, comparative studies, and inviting educational motivators. Novelty: This study integrates a multi-dimensional perspective—causes, solutions, challenges, and strategic plans—into a single framework for pesantren motivation improvement. Implications: The findings offer practical recommendations for pesantren management to create more dynamic, student-centered learning environments that foster sustained motivation and educational quality.Highlights :  Comprehensive analysis of causes, solutions, challenges, and future plans in pesantren.

Abstract

General Background: Religious education plays a crucial role in early childhood development, fostering foundational skills in Islamic learning. Specific Background: One essential skill is the ability to recite and recognize hijaiyyah letters, including their pronunciation, symbols, and harakat, which for children aged 5–6 years remains at the introductory stage. Knowledge Gap: Conventional methods for teaching hijaiyyah often lack engaging and interactive elements, and limited studies have explored the structured use of tactile media for this age group in a formal early childhood setting. Aims: This study aims to improve the recitation skills of children aged 5–6 years through the use of smart hijaiyyah block media (BACERYAH) at TK Anak Sholeh, Magersari. Results: Using a classroom action research design based on the Kemmis and McTaggart model, involving 12 children, the study recorded an increase in average achievement from 49% (pre-cycle) to 71% (Cycle I) and 83% (Cycle II). Novelty: This research introduces BACERYAH as a structured, multisensory learning tool that integrates visual, tactile, and repetitive practice in early Islamic literacy. Implications: Findings highlight BACERYAH’s potential as an effective medium for supporting early Quranic literacy, offering educators an engaging approach to strengthen foundational religious education in early childhood settings. Highlights: Integration of religious education in early childhood learning Use of BACERYAH as an interactive hijaiyyah learning tool Significant improvement in children’s recitation skills Keywords: Baceryah, Hijaiyyah Letters, Early Childhood Education, Quranic Literacy, Classroom Action Research

Abstract

General Background : The rise of digital technology has introduced modern challenges to education, particularly concerning students' engagement with online games. Specific Background : This study specifically examines the effects of online game addiction on fourth-grade students at Al-Islamiyah Putat, Tanggulangin Elementary School.
