Abstract

Critical thinking is acknowledged to be essential for the educators of the 21st century. Consistent with this, this research project aimed to evaluate the critical thinking abilities of third-year students of the English Teacher Training Programme at a Chilean university, who completed their initial two years of academic instruction exclusively online due to the COVID-19 pandemic. During the diagnosis stage, these pre-service teachers were asked to write a short essay about a topic covered in class. This phase showed participants’ lack of comprehension of the topics as their essays tended to address the issues superficially and present weak arguments, and pre-test results confirmed this. Therefore, four pedagogical interventions were designed and implemented throughout the term, using academic writing as a tool to develop critical thinking abilities. These interventions consisted of continuous feedback on the participants’ writings, an academic writing course, attendance at a webinar on critical thinking and English language teaching, and group reflection sessions. The results of the post-test showed significant improvement in both content organisation and the quality of the arguments presented in the essays. The participants demonstrated a more critical and analytical approach to addressing the topics of their writings, demonstrating a significant progress in their analytical reasoning skills. This research highlights the importance of addressing and strengthening critical thinking skills in pre-service teachers, especially after being immersed in a virtual education context. The pedagogical interventions implemented proved to be effective in improving participants’ critical reasoning, representing a valuable contribution to their future teaching practice.

Abstract

Bullying is a social problem that often occurs in educational settings and can have a negative impact on students' psychological development. In Islam, the moral values contained in the Qur'an can be used as guidelines to shape the character of students to get used to behaving well and avoiding actions that harm others. This study aims to examine the implementation of moral values in Surah Al-Hujurat verses 11-13 as the basis for habituation "Stop Bullying" at MI Baitur Rohman Asemrowo Surabaya. The method used in this research is a qualitative approach with data collection techniques through observation, interviews, and documentation. The results showed that the moral values in the verse, such as the prohibition of demeaning others, reproaching, calling bad names, prejudice, and backbiting, have been implemented through habituation activities which include Islamic value-based learning, teacher exemplary, and special anti-bullying programs at school. The implementation of these values has proven effective in shaping students' awareness to respect each other and maintain ukhuwah Islamiyah in the school environment. Thus, strengthening moral values in the Qur'an is an important strategy in instilling anti-bullying character in education.

Abstract

This study investigates the effectiveness of experiential learning in improving students' ability to read recount texts. Addressing the challenges faced by students with traditional teaching methods, the research implemented experiential learning strategies to enhance comprehension. Using a one-group pretest-posttest design with 26 male students from SMK 2 LPPM RI Majalaya, the study found significant improvements in reading scores, with averages increasing from 63.35 to 81.42. The frequency distribution also shifted positively post- intervention. Normality tests confirmed the validity of the parametric analyses. The findings indicate that experiential learning effectively enhances students' reading comprehension of recount texts, suggesting its potential for broader educational application. Future research should explore its long-term impact and applicability across diverse student groups
