Abstract

English speaking skills remain a challenge for elementary school students in Indonesia in the context of English as a Foreign Language (EFL). Limited vocabulary, low self-confidence, anxiety when speaking, and limited opportunities for communication practice hinder students' speaking skills. The role-play method is considered adequate for overcoming these problems because it provides students with opportunities to use English in meaningful, real-life situations. This study aims to synthesise empirical findings on the effectiveness of the role-play method in improving the English-speaking skills of elementary school students in Indonesia. This study uses a qualitative meta-analysis approach, following the PRISMA 2020 guidelines. Data were obtained from journal articles published between 2015 and 2025 through the Google Scholar database. Of the 17,600 articles identified, 10 that met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were analysed using thematic analysis. However, this study has limitations because it relies solely on Google Scholar, potentially excluding other relevant studies from the analysis. The results showed that the role-play method was effective in improving students' speaking skills across linguistic, affective, and social interaction aspects. Improvements included vocabulary mastery, fluency, confidence, learning motivation, and student activity. In addition, role play encourages meaningful interaction and creates a learning environment that supports English-speaking practice. To maximise results, role-play needs to be applied through scenarios relevant to students' context, explicit teaching of vocabulary and expressions, guided role-play practice, and systematic teacher feedback. Thus, role play is an effective and targeted method for improving the speaking skills of elementary school students.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of the quality of educational quality manuals and principal supervision on teacher innovation in secondary school instruction. Amid ongoing curriculum reforms, many Indonesian schools still face challenges in fostering innovative teaching practices. This research applies a quantitative explanatory method with a Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) approach to test the influence of two independent variables: quality of the educational quality manual (X1) and principal supervision (X2), on the dependent variable: teacher instructional innovation (Y). The study was conducted at Sekolah Islam Cendekia—covering SD, SMP, and SMA levels—under the management of Yayasan Pribadi Kamila Cianjur, Indonesia, involving 40 respondents selected from this foundation, which has implemented both standardized educational quality manuals and active principal supervision. The results of the outer model analysis show that all indicators are valid (loading factors > 0.7) and reliable (AVE > 0.5, Composite Reliability > 0.9). The inner model results indicate a very high predictive power, where both X1 and X2 simultaneously explain 93.9% of the variance in teacher innovation (R2 = 0.939). Path coefficient testing revealed that the quality of the educational quality manual has a dominant and significant effect on teacher innovation (β = 0.529; p < 0.05), followed by principal supervision which also shows a strong and significant positive effect (β = 0.450; p < 0.05). These findings suggest that teacher innovation is primarily driven by the clarity of quality standards which provide a "safety structure," supported by active mentorship from the principal. Therefore, schools must prioritize the revitalization of quality manuals as living documents and enhance principal coaching practices to create a sustainable innovation ecosystem. The study contributes theoretically to educational leadership and practically to school improvement strategies in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study conducted a systematic review to examine the role of self-awareness in increasing learning focus and its contribution to strengthening student independence in elementary school. A total of 12 scientific articles published in the 2021–2026 range were comprehensively analyzed. The results of the study show three main mechanisms that make self-awareness-based mindfulness a key intervention. First, self-awareness plays a role in improving the executive function of the brain, including attention control, inhibition of impulsive responses, and cognitive flexibility, which are neurocognitive prerequisites for learning focus. Second, self-awareness provides practical strategies for managing anxiety and stress that can interfere with concentration, while also improving students' emotional awareness. Third, self-awareness supports the formation of school culture and teacher practices that create a supportive learning ecosystem. Advanced synthesis analysis showed that the reinforcement of self-control acted as a mediator explaining the indirect relationship between self-awareness and increased learning focus. Based on these findings, this study recommends the systematic integration of self-awareness practices through reflective activities, simple mindfulness exercises, and emotionally responsive learning strategies in the curriculum and training of elementary school teachers to support academic development, especially in improving learning focus.

Abstract

This study aims to analyse the roles of Islamic Religious Education (PAI) teachers and parents in fostering students' spiritual attitudes at MI Miftahul Huda Bonangrejo, Bonang, Demak, in the digital era. The background of this research stems from the phenomenon of declining religious interest among students and the significant influence of technology and globalisation on the religious behaviour of elementary school-aged children. Employing a qualitative approach with a case study design, this study involved 12 participants, consisting of the school principal, two PAI teachers, and nine parents. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and documentation, and then analysed using the Miles and Huberman interactive model. The results indicate that PAI teachers play strategic roles as educators of religious values, spiritual guides, moral role models, drivers of the school’s religious culture, and mentors of Islamic-based digital literacy. Meanwhile, parents serve as primary educators through exemplary worship practices, habituation of religious activities, warm religious communication, supervision of technology use, and the creation of a religious family atmosphere. The synergy between PAI teachers and parents has been shown to strengthen students’ religious discipline, social morality, and spiritual awareness. This study concludes that collaboration between schools and families is a crucial foundation for developing students’ spirituality amidst the challenges of the digital era. However, this study is limited to a single educational institution within a specific geographic context, so the findings reflect the characteristics of MI Miftahul Huda Bonangrejo, Demak, and may not fully represent other schools with different social and cultural settings.

Abstract

This study investigates learners’ use of the mother tongue in English for Specific Purposes classrooms and examines students’ perceptions of lecturers’ use of the mother tongue as part of instructional practice. Drawing on a descriptive survey design, data were collected from 66 students enrolled in ESP courses at a public university in Indonesia. The participants, drawn from several intact classes, completed an online questionnaire adapted from an established instrument and contextualized to the Indonesian setting. The questionnaire explored the frequency and functions of students’ mother tongue use as well as their evaluations of teachers’ use of the mother tongue in explaining vocabulary, grammar, instructions, and discipline related content. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, including means, standard deviations, frequencies, and percentages. The findings indicate that learners do not rely on their first language indiscriminately but use it selectively to support comprehension, peer collaboration, and expressive clarity in cognitively demanding situations. In addition, students perceive lecturers’ use of the mother tongue as pedagogically appropriate when it serves specific instructional purposes, particularly in clarifying technical terminology and complex professional concepts. English remains recognized as the primary medium of instruction, while the mother tongue functions as a supportive resource. These findings provide empirical support for a balanced and context sensitive approach to mother tongue use in ESP instruction and contribute to ongoing discussions on multilingual practices in higher education. The study is limited by the use of convenience sampling, the relatively small sample size, and reliance on self-reported questionnaire data, which may affect the generalizability of the results.

Abstract

This study aims to develop a learning design that is relevant to local Islamic culture, so that students can actively engage in a meaningful and enjoyable learning process. The background of this study stems from the need for a learning model that not only emphasizes academic achievement but also pays attention to Islamic values and local culture as part of the formation of student character. In the context of education in Indonesia, the diversity of local Islamic culture and traditions is a great potential that can be integrated into the learning process to make it more contextual, authentic, and close to the daily lives of students. The method used is the library research method by reviewing various relevant literature sources, such as books, journals, and previous research results on learning design, local Islamic culture, and meaningful and enjoyable learning strategies. Learning design that is relevant to local Islamic culture and actively involves students can be an alternative effective learning strategy to build a contextual and enjoyable learning experience. Such learning not only strengthens students' Islamic identity, but also fosters a love for local culture and develops critical, social, and spiritual thinking skills in a balanced manner.

Abstract

Mastery of qawāʿid (Arabic grammar) is a fundamental aspect of Arabic language learning, particularly in mubtada’-khabar and fiʻil-fāʻil, which form the core structure of nominal and verbal sentences. However, in practice, not all students are able to master these two aspects optimally. This study aims to describe the mastery level of mubtada’-khabar and fiʻil-fāʻil among Grade XI students at MAN 1 Majene. This research employed a quantitative approach with a descriptive design. The sample consisted of 57 students selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected through a validated written test administered to 57 Grade XI students and analyzed using descriptive statistics and a One Sample t-test. The results showed that the average mastery score for mubtada’-khabar was 61.05 and for fiʻil-fāʻil was 64.74, both falling below the minimum mastery criterion (KKM) of 75. Although fiʻil-fāʻil was generally better mastered than mubtada’-khabar, the distribution of mastery was not uniform across students. In conclusion, mastery of both aspects needs to be improved through more contextual, interactive, and varied learning, supported by gradual practice and the use of media that can visualize sentence structures effectively.

Abstract

The challenges faced by students in studying Nahwu, an essential component of the Arabic language, often relate to the complexity of its rules, making it feel difficult and diminishing learning motivation. This study aims to analyze the factors influencing students' learning motivation in Nahwu courses at the university level, offering solutions through a deeper understanding of intrinsic motivation, extrinsic motivation, and amotivation. The research employed a descriptive quantitative method with factor analysis using Principal Component Analysis (PCA). Data were collected over a one-month period via questionnaires from 46 fifth-semester students (cohort 2020) in the Arabic Language Education Program at UIN Datokarama Palu. The motivation indicators employed in this study were based on the Academic Motivation Scale (AMS) developed by Robert J. Vallerand, which comprises seven distinct indicators. The findings reveal two main factors affecting learning motivation: the Self-Regulation Factor, which is associated with positive motivation, and the Helplessness Factor, reflecting feelings of inability. These findings are expected to provide insights for educators in creating effective teaching methods to enhance students' motivation and learning outcomes in Nahwu courses.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the problems of Arabic language learning as a challenge in implementing the curriculum at Ma'had Muslimeen Care Academy (MCA), Malaysia. The study uses a qualitative approach with a case study design. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation of educators, ma'had caregivers, students, the learning process in the classroom, and institutional documents. This study was motivated by the condition of MCA as an Islamic educational institution that is still in its early stages and has adopted the Arabic language curriculum of Kulliyatul Mu'allimin Al-Islamiyah (KMI) Pondok Modern Darussalam Gontor, which has a different social and institutional context. The results of the study show a gap between the principle of mubāsyarah learning, which emphasizes the communicative and intensive use of Arabic, and classroom learning practices. This gap is influenced by various contextual factors, both institutional and learning-related. The findings of this study indicate that the implementation of the Arabic language curriculum at MCA does not take place linearly, but rather through a process of curriculum enactment that is negotiated in accordance with institutional conditions, student characteristics, and available resources. Unlike previous studies, this study emphasizes the analysis of the problems of Arabic language learning in the context of Islamic educational institutions that are still in the pioneering stage, by paying attention to the interrelationship between institutional, curricular, and learning aspects in an integrative manner. This study provides a theoretical contribution by enriching the study of Arabic language learning through the perspective of curriculum enactment in the context of pioneering Islamic boarding schools, as well as a practical contribution to the development of Arabic language curriculum management to be more in line with the institutional context and the needs of students, especially in Islamic educational institutions in Malaysia.

Abstract

Equipping learners to address contemporary environmental, technological, and societal challenges is a central objective of science education. However, curricula frequently prioritize Western scientific paradigms, resulting in the marginalization of indigenous knowledge systems that offer culturally meaningful and locally grounded insights. This systematic review synthesizes 11 empirical studies published between 2020 and 2025 that investigate the collaborative integration of indigenous knowledge and pedagogical approaches in science education, focusing on epistemological perspectives and educational implications. A comprehensive search was conducted across major academic databases, and relevant studies were screened using explicit inclusion and exclusion criteria to ensure rigor. The final corpus was analyzed to identify research characteristics, models of collaboration, epistemological lenses, and practical mechanisms. Findings indicate that collaborative integration strategies, including co-designed STEAM/STEM curricula and culturally responsive pedagogical approaches, enhance learner engagement, promote epistemic pluralism, and support contextually grounded learning experiences. Epistemological frameworks such as contextual constructivism, relational knowledge, and ethnoscience underpin effective integration, guiding curriculum design and instructional practice. The review concludes that embedding indigenous knowledge collaboratively with pedagogical strategies is critical for culturally responsive science education and offers actionable insights for educators, curriculum developers, and policymakers seeking pluralistic, context-sensitive, and ethically informed learning environments.
