Abstract

This study aims to analyze the implementation of agility strategies at Al-Mashduqiyyah Islamic Boarding School, Patokan Probolinggo, in responding to change and the demands of modern education. The study focuses on curriculum management, the role of pesantren caregivers (kyai), and pesantren culture as the foundation of institutional resilience. This research adopts a qualitative approach with a case study design, in which data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation. The selection of informants was conducted purposively to ensure the richness and relevance of the data obtained from key stakeholders within the pesantren environment. The findings indicate that agility strategies at Al-Mashduqiyyah are realized through flexible and contextual curriculum management by integrating the religious curriculum based on kitab kuning with the national formal curriculum. This integration enables students to achieve a balanced competence between religious mastery and general academic skills. The pesantren caregivers play a central role in promoting organizational agility through monitoring changes, making adaptive decisions, and delegating authority to administrators and educators in a structured yet dynamic manner. Moreover, the pesantren culture, which upholds the values of deliberation (musyawarah), discipline, sincerity, and respect for tradition, functions as a key pillar in maintaining a balance between innovation and the preservation of pesantren values. These cultural values strengthen institutional identity while simultaneously encouraging responsiveness to external challenges. Therefore, the agility strategy implemented at Al-Mashduqiyyah Islamic Boarding School is not only an adaptive response to change but also a sustainability strategy rooted in the values and culture of the pesantren, ensuring its long-term relevance and institutional continuity in the modern educational landscape

Abstract

Islamic Religious Education (PAI) plays a crucial role in shaping students’ character and higher-order thinking skills; however, learning practices at the junior high school level remain predominantly conventional and teacher-centered, resulting in limited stimulation of students’ problem-solving abilities. This study aims to (1) examine the implementation of the Inquiry-Based Learning (IBL) approach, (2) identify the challenges encountered by teachers, and (3) analyze its impact on students’ problem-solving skills in PAI learning. The research was conducted at Muhammad Shodiq Maron Middle School and Sunan Bonang Maron Middle School, located in Probolinggo, East Java, Indonesia. This study employed a qualitative method with a case study approach, utilizing data collection techniques such as observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. Data validity was ensured through triangulation and member checking. The findings reveal that IBL is systematically implemented through several stages, including orientation, problem formulation, investigation, data analysis, and reflection. In this process, teachers function as facilitators who guide students in constructing knowledge, while students actively engage in critical inquiry, collaborative discussion, and problem-solving activities. Although several challenges were identified, particularly related to limited instructional time and varying levels of teacher readiness in designing inquiry-based activities, the implementation of IBL demonstrated significant positive outcomes. It enhanced students’ active participation, confidence in expressing ideas, critical thinking capacity, and ability to relate learning materials to real-life contexts. In conclusion, the IBL approach is effective in improving students’ problem-solving skills in PAI learning and fostering critical, reflective, and solution-oriented learners, making it highly relevant for 21st-century contextual education.

Abstract

This study aims to understand how Islamic boarding schools (pesantren) manage the paradox between the value of politeness and the demands of social media algorithms in digital marketing practices. This phenomenon is crucial because Islamic boarding schools are faced with the need to remain relevant in the digital space without losing their foundational values. A qualitative approach was used, with a case study design at the Kwagean Islamic Boarding School in Kediri. Data were collected through direct observation and in-depth interviews with administrators, the media team, and students involved in content production. Data were then analyzed step by step to identify emerging patterns and meanings. The results show that Islamic boarding schools engage in a continuous negotiation process between maintaining politeness and adapting to the logic of the algorithm. Communication styles are made lighter and more adaptive, while remaining within the boundaries of maintained values. On the other hand, algorithms also influence content production patterns, particularly in the tendency to repeat formats deemed effective. This condition creates a hybrid communication identity, where depth of substance is maintained while presented in a simpler manner. These findings illustrate that digital adaptation does not always lead to a loss of values, but can instead provide a space for formulating new, more contextual forms of communication. This study is expected to enrich the discourse on religious digital communication and serve as a practical reference for Islamic boarding schools in managing media wisely amidst the pressures of digital systems.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that the concept of deep learning has long been inherently realized within the traditional educational practices of pesantren, even before it was formally introduced in modern academic discourse. Pesantren, as the oldest Islamic educational institutions in Indonesia, have developed a holistic learning system that integrates intellectual, spiritual, and social dimensions in a sustainable manner. This research was conducted at Pondok Pesantren Nurul Ulum Cindogo using a qualitative field research approach. Data were collected through in-depth observations, semi-structured interviews, and documentation, involving kyai, ustadz, administrators, and students as key informants. The findings reveal that the fundamental principles of deep learning mindful learning, meaningful learning, and joyful learning are deeply embedded in the daily life and educational practices of the pesantren. Mindful learning is reflected in the development of students’ metacognitive awareness through disciplined study habits, reflective practices, and spiritual internalization. Meaningful learning is realized through instructional methods such as sorogan and the communal living system, which connect theoretical knowledge with authentic life experiences and social responsibility. Meanwhile, joyful learning is manifested in participatory activities such as halaqah and lalaran, fostering active engagement, emotional connection, and intrinsic motivation among students. This study concludes that pesantren education not only aligns with but also predates and exemplifies the principles of deep learning. Therefore, it offers a contextual, holistic, and value-based model that can contribute significantly to the development of contemporary education

Abstract

This study analyzes how word-of-mouth (WOM) is used as an organic marketing strategy in faith-based educational institutions, especially its influence on the perception and decisions of prospective students. The research was conducted by quantitative surveys, collecting data from active students, alumni, and parents through structured questionnaires and supporting documents from institutions. The results show that the positive experiences of students, the credibility of mentors and teachers, and recommendations from senior students and alumni greatly influence the decision of prospective students. Data analysis showed positive experiences contributed the most, followed by the credibility of sources and peer recommendations. This confirms that direct interaction is more influential than formal promotion. Digital media is only an additional channel of information, while interpersonal interaction remains a major factor in the effectiveness of WOM. This study concludes that WOM in faith-based educational institutions runs through social interaction and trusted personal networks, thus becoming an effective and efficient marketing strategy. The implication of this research is that institutional managers can improve their reputation and attract prospective students by creating positive experiences, strengthening the role of mentors and seniors, and documenting original testimonials to optimize organic marketing strategies.

Abstract

The Qur'an is the main pillar in Islamic education, both in Indonesia and other Islamic countries such as Thailand. The rapid advancement of technology has given rise to various social challenges, such as declining literacy in reading the Qur'an. This study aims to analyze in depth how Al-Qur'an learning management is applied in MTs. Unggulan Al-Qodiri I Jember, East Java Province, Indonesia, and Samakke Islam Wittaya School, Satun Province, Thailand, with different social backgrounds of students, as well as identify the best Qur'an learning management that other educational institutions can apply. This study uses a qualitative, comparative approach to systematically examine the management of Qur'an learning in schools. Data collection was carried out through observation, documentation, and interviews. As for the results, both schools have a systematic approach to Qur'an learning through the stages of planning, organizing, implementing, and evaluating. MTs. Unggulan Al-Qodiri I Jember excels in the Al-Qur'an education management system through teacher development, the use of external evaluations as a graduation requirement, and the presence of teachers with JUZ. In contrast, Samakke Islam Wittaya School excels in learning intensity and in developing students' talents. This research also formulated a synthesis model of Qur'anic learning management. By bringing together the managerial powers of two institutions, this model establishes a new standard for planning, organizing, implementing, and evaluating Qur'anic learning that is more effective and adaptable.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the role of the school environment in shaping students’ moral character through educational interactions. It employs a qualitative approach with a case study design to explore interaction patterns within a specific school context in depth. The research subjects included 10th-grade students, Islamic Religious Education teachers, guidance and counseling teachers, and homeroom teachers. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation. The analysis followed an interactive model consisting of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing, while data validity was ensured through source and technique triangulation. The findings indicate that educational interactions play a central role in shaping students’ moral character. Classroom interactions serve not only as a medium for knowledge transfer but also as a strategic space for internalizing values such as discipline, responsibility, and mutual respect. Interactions outside the classroom, including extracurricular activities and religious practices, further strengthen character development. In addition, peer interactions contribute to the formation of social awareness and positive behavior through dynamic social influence. The novelty of this study lies in its integrative analysis of multi-contextual educational interactions, encompassing classroom, extracurricular, religious, and peer environments as a unified system in character formation. This study highlights the synergistic relationship among these interaction domains within the school ecosystem. Thus, a conducive school environment, supported by teachers’ exemplary behavior and positive social interactions, becomes a key determinant in shaping students’ moral character.
