Abstract

PowerPoint has become a highly popular teaching medium in recent years, supported by various studies showing its high effectiveness in the learning process. However, the opposite has been observed in the teaching of Qowaidun Nahwi at Ma'had Tahfidzul Qur'an al Firqoh an Najiyah Putri. Therefore, this study aims to explain and thoroughly map students' responses and perceptions regarding the use of PowerPoint and the lecture method in Qowaidun Nahwi instruction at the school. This research employs a qualitative approach, with data collection methods including interviews and questionnaires administered to both teachers and students. The findings indicate that, although most students do not find PowerPoint boring, support and interest in this medium are relatively low, with only 58.3% supporting and 61% showing interest. Students tend to better understand the material through direct lectures, which are deemed more effective, with 81% of students viewing PowerPoint as merely a supplementary tool rather than the primary medium. On the other hand, the lecture method supported by the use of a whiteboard garnered higher support, with 73% of students in favor and 83% showing high interest. This method is considered more effective in facilitating the comprehension of complex material like Qowaidun Nahwi, although the integration of interactive methods such as discussions is still necessary to encourage more active student participation in the learning process.

Abstract

Sociocultural theory, initially proposed by Vygotsky, provides a framework for understanding human cognitive development and mental functions. At its core, sociocultural theory posits that learning and cognitive development—including language acquisition—occur through social interactions. This study aims to explore how second language acquisition can be explained through the sociocultural perspective, specifically examining how second language learners acquire language through collaboration and interaction with other speakers. The research employs a qualitative literature review method, drawing data from various sources such as books and scholarly articles relevant to the study’s objectives. The findings indicate that Vygotsky’s sociocultural theory is applicable to learning Arabic as a second language. Key concepts from Vygotsky’s theory, such as the Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD), scaffolding through adult mediation, micro genesis, inner speech, private speech, and activity theory, offer valuable perspectives for developing Arabic language skills. These insights underscore the importance of social interaction in fostering language learning and suggest practical implications for teaching practices.

Abstract

YouTube content has become a significant factor with notable effects and impacts on society today, particularly in the realms of education and learning. This is also true for Arabic language learning, where various educational contents are available to enhance learners' proficiency. The purpose of this study is to explore the "Marhaban Academy" YouTube channel, understand the vocabulary teaching methods employed, and analyze the effectiveness of its content in improving Arabic vocabulary mastery. The research adopts a qualitative descriptive approach to analyze the YouTube channel "Marhaban Academy," focusing specifically on the video titled "Learning Arabic Through Spongebob Cartoons Part 11" as a case study for enhancing vocabulary acquisition. Data collection was conducted through several stages: viewing the content, categorizing learning elements, and evaluating media usage. Data analysis involved comprehensive and detailed content review, followed by data coding based on predefined analytical categories. The findings reveal that: 1) the "Marhaban Academy" channel serves as an interactive and engaging platform for teaching Arabic; 2) three primary methods are utilized for vocabulary instruction—singing, mimicry memorization, and matching exercises; and 3) the video content employs the mimicry memorization method, which is particularly effective in enhancing learners' vocabulary mastery. These insights highlight the potential of innovative and engaging multimedia approaches in Arabic language education.

Abstract

The digital era has revolutionized education, paving the way for innovations such as distance learning. This study examines the transformative impact of digital technology on education, emphasizing its potential to enhance accessibility, flexibility, and inclusivity in learning. Key findings reveal that distance learning effectively bridges geographical barriers, providing equitable educational opportunities for diverse learners. Additionally, the integration of digital tools fosters personalized learning experiences, promoting self-paced progress and interactive engagement. However, challenges such as gaps in digital infrastructure, limited technological literacy, and the need for educators to adapt to digital pedagogies remain significant. To address these issues, this research recommends prioritizing investments in digital infrastructure, offering comprehensive training for educators, and developing learner-centered digital content. The findings underscore that when supported by robust strategies, distance learning not only modernizes education but also equips learners with 21st-century skills, including critical thinking, collaboration, and technological proficiency. By embracing these changes, education systems worldwide can transition toward a more equitable and sustainable future. This study concludes that distance learning is not merely a response to technological advancements but a pivotal step in reimagining education for the digital age.

Abstract

Understanding and addressing writing errors is crucial for Arabic language teachers to enhance students' proficiency. This study focuses on analyzing orthographic writing errors made by seventh-grade students at the At-Tarbiyah Islamic Boarding School Sukabumi. Employing a qualitative descriptive approach, data on orthographic errors were collected through students’ responses to essay tests in Arabic language and Tajweed subjects. Additionally, interviews with Arabic and Tajweed teachers were conducted to identify the causes of these errors and propose solutions. The findings reveal that despite being in a linguistic environment, seventh-grade students frequently make orthographic errors due to several factors: the absence of a writing-focused subject in the curriculum, mishearing vocabulary, reliance on auditory input without verification, failure to review vocabulary, incorrect assumptions about word equivalencies, and visual impairments. To address these issues, the study recommends implementing targeted strategies, including increasing writing practice, training students to listen accurately to Arabic words, improving pronunciation skills, consistently reviewing previously learned vocabulary, utilizing dictionaries, and incorporating supportive teaching aids. These interventions aim to reduce orthographic errors and foster better writing skills among students. The study underscores the importance of systematic error analysis in identifying challenges and enhancing Arabic language education.
