Academic Reasoning and Literacy-Based Tests: Evaluating Their Effectiveness in Predicting Prospective Students' Potential in Indonesia
The enrollment test for prospective students at Islamic State Universities (Perguruan Tinggi Keagamaan Islam Negeri, or PTKIN) in Indonesia carries significant implications-not only for the students themselves but also within the broader social context. Consequently, there is a pressing need for a valid selection instrument capable of objectively predicting the academic potential of prospective students. This study aims to assess the effectiveness of academic reasoning and literacy-based tests as predictors of academic potential among PTKIN applicants. This research adopts a cross-sectional design to analyze the relationship between UMPTKIN scores and students’ Grade Point Averages (GPAs) during their first two semesters. The dataset comprises 2023 UMPTKIN scores and GPAs of 2,161 students from UIN Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta and UIN Alauddin Makassar. Data were obtained from the National UMPTKIN Committee and the Information Technology Centers and Databases of the respective PTKINs. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS 24, employing descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation, and multiple linear regression. The results reveal a weak correlation between academic reasoning and literacy scores and students' academic performance, though the degree of influence varies across academic programs. These findings underscore the need to develop more targeted selection approaches aligned with the specific characteristics of each academic program in order to enhance academic outcomes at PTKINs. Accordingly, policymakers involved in student selection processes should prioritize the development and implementation of more valid and program-sensitive selection instruments. Abstrak: Seleksi calon mahasiswa di Perguruan Tinggi Keagamaan Islam Negeri (PTKIN) di Indonesia memiliki dampak yang signifikan, baik pada individu mahasiswa maupun dalam konteks sosial yang lebih luas. Untuk itu, diperlukan instrumen seleksi yang valid dan dapat memprediksi potensi akademik calon mahasiswa secara objektif. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menguji efektivitas tes penalaran akademik dan tes literasi sebagai prediktor potensi akademik calon mahasiswa PTKIN. Desain penelitian yang digunakan adalah cross-sectional, yang memungkinkan analisis hubungan antara skor UMPTKIN dan Indeks Prestasi Kumulatif (IPK) mahasiswa pada dua semester pertama. Data penelitian mencakup skor UMPTKIN 2023 dan IPK dari 2.161 mahasiswa yang diterima melalui UMPTKIN 2023 di UIN Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta dan UIN Alauddin Makassar. Data dikumpulkan dari Panitia Nasional UMPTKIN dan Pusat Teknologi Informasi serta Pangkalan Data masing-masing PTKIN. Analisis data dilakukan menggunakan SPSS 24, dengan tahapan: analisis deskriptif, korelasi Pearson, dan regresi linier berganda. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa secara statistik hubungan antara penalaran akademik dan literasi dengan pencapaian akademik mahasiswa tergolong lemah, meskipun kontribusi masing-masing faktor bervariasi antar program studi. Temuan penelitian ini menyoroti pentingnya pengembangan pendekatan seleksi yang lebih spesifik dan disesuaikan dengan karakteristik masing-masing program studi untuk meningkatkan pencapaian akademik mahasiswa di PTKIN. Karenanya, bagi pengambil kebijakan seleksi mahasiswa di PTKIN, perlunya menekankan instrumen seleksi yang lebih valid dan terfokus pada karakteristik program studi.

Evaluation of The Arabic Language Learning Program based on The Merdeka Curriculum at a Madrasah Tsanawiyah in Makassar
This study aims to evaluate the Arabic language learning program implemented under the Merdeka Curriculum at a Madrasah Tsanawiyah in Makassar, using the CIPP evaluation model (Context, Input, Process, Product). Data were collected through observations and interviews with the Vice Principal for Curriculum Affairs and Arabic language teachers. The data were analyzed qualitatively, drawing on the analytical framework developed by Miles and Huberman. The program’s effectiveness was assessed through the four key components of the CIPP model. The findings reveal that the context aspect – pertaining to program planning – has been achieved in accordance with the established indicators. However, the input dimension indicates that while the school has sufficient capacity to support program implementation, improvements are needed in curriculum development, which should involve more collaborative efforts. The processaspect is rated as moderately effective, although issues remain in time management and in facilitating students’ self-reflection on their ongoing learning needs. The product aspect demonstrates satisfactory learning outcomes; nonetheless, students' proficiency in Arabic language skills remains relatively low. This is attributed to their diverse educational backgrounds, including those from Madrasah Ibtidaiyah and public elementary schools. These results underscore the need for targeted improvements to enhance the overall effectiveness of the Arabic language learning program within the Merdeka Curriculum framework. Abstrak: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi program pembelajaran Bahasa Arab berdasarkan Kurikulum Merdeka di a Madrasah Tsanawiyah Negeri in Makassar dengan menggunakan model evaluasi CIPP (Context, Input, Process, Product). Data dikumpulkan melalui observasi dan wawancara yang ditujukan kepada Wakil Kepala Madrasah bagian kurikulum dan guru Bahasa Arab. Analisis data menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan teori yang dikembangkan oleh Miles dan Huberman. Aspek keberhasilan dievaluasi melalui empat komponen utama model CIPP. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa aspek context atau perencanaan program telah tercapai sesuai indikator, namun perlu perbaikan dalam penyusunan kurikulum yang seharusnya dilakukan secara tim. Aspek input menunjukkan bahwa kapasitas madrasah mendukung pelaksanaan program. Aspek process dinilai cukup baik, namun masih ditemukan kekurangan dalam pengelolaan waktu dan pelibatan peserta didik dalam refleksi kebutuhan belajar berkelanjutan. Aspek product memperlihatkan hasil yang cukup baik dari sisi nilai pembelajaran, tetapi penguasaan keterampilan berbahasa Arab masih rendah, dipengaruhi oleh latar belakang pendidikan peserta didik yang beragam, baik dari madrasah ibtidaiyah maupun sekolah dasar. Temuan ini menekankan perlunya peningkatan dalam beberapa aspek untuk meningkatkan efektivitas program pembelajaran bahasa arab berdasarkan Kurikulum Merdeka.

An Analysis of the Influence of Social Media and Digital Platforms on the Islamic Understanding of Generation Alpha
The increasing social media consumption among Generation Alpha - the digital-native cohort born after 2010 - has introduced both new opportunities and challenges in the realm of Islamic religious education. This is particularly evident in the context of online learning, an area that remains underexplored empirically at the junior high school level. This study aims to examine the influence of social media and digital platforms on students’ understanding of Islam at Muhammadiyah 1 Berbah Middle School, while also identifying the digital literacy challenges they encounter. Adopting a quantitative descriptive approach, the study involved a sample of 152 students selected through stratified random sampling based on grade level and gender, from a total population of 250 students. Data were collected using a closed-ended questionnaire employing a 4-point Likert scale to assess four key variables: social media usage, understanding of Islamic teachings, digital literacy, and perceived benefits and challenges. Analysis using SPSS revealed that social media plays a dual role: while 63% of respondents reported that it supported their understanding of Islamic teachings, 68% frequently encountered conflicting religious information, and only 55% consistently verified such content. Moreover, 57% of students acknowledged the need for guidance in filtering religious information online. These findings highlight the urgent need for digital literacy training, greater educator involvement, and the development of credible Islamic content to enhance the positive impact of social media on religious education. Further research is recommended to explore causal relationships and the influence of other stakeholders, such as families, in strengthening students’ religious digital literacy. Abstrak: Fenomena meningkatnya konsumsi media sosial oleh Generasi Alfa, generasi digital-native yang lahir setelah tahun 2010, telah membawa tantangan dan peluang baru dalam pendidikan agama Islam, khususnya dalam konteks pembelajaran daring yang belum banyak diteliti secara empiris di tingkat sekolah menengah pertama.Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh media sosial dan platform digital terhadap pemahaman Islam di kalangan siswa SMP Muhammadiyah 1 Berbah, sekaligus mengidentifikasi tantangan literasi digital yang mereka hadapi. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan deskriptif kuantitatif dengan jumlah sampel 152 siswa yang diambil melalui stratified random sampling berdasarkan jenjang kelas dan jenis kelamin dari total populasi 250 siswa. Instrumen penelitian berupa kuesioner tertutup dengan skala Likert 4 poin untuk mengukur empat variabel: penggunaan media sosial, pemahaman ajaran Islam, literasi digital, serta manfaat dan tantangan yang dirasakan. Hasil analisis data dengan SPSS menunjukkan bahwa media sosial berperan ganda: 63% responden merasa terbantu dalam memahami ajaran Islam, namun 68% sering menemukan informasi keagamaan yang bertentangan dan hanya 55% yang secara konsisten memverifikasi informasi tersebut. Sebanyak 57% mengaku memerlukan panduan dalam memilah informasi agama secara daring. Temuan ini menegaskan pentingnya pelatihan literasi digital, keterlibatan pendidik, serta pengembangan konten keislaman yang kredibel guna mengoptimalkan peran media sosial dalam pendidikan agama. Penelitian lanjutan disarankan untuk mengeksplorasi hubungan kausal dan peran aktor lain seperti keluarga dalam meningkatkan literasi digital keagamaan.

Mitigating Learning Losses: Causes, Manifestations, and Strategies for Post-Pandemic Educational Recovery
Although many studies have investigated learning loss in the context of online education during the pandemic, few have explored it across diverse educational settings, including hybrid-flexible and offline learning. This research aims to identify and analyze learning loss that occurred during and after the pandemic in Indonesia. Employing a case study approach, it examines the full spectrum of educational experiences during the pandemic era. The study was conducted at a leading school in Denpasar, Bali, involving 192 students and 10 teachers. Data were collected through surveys, observations, and interviews, and analyzed using inductive methods with an emphasis on qualitative insights. Findings indicate that learning loss occurred across all modes of instruction – online, hybrid-flexible, and offline. Importantly, the frequent transitions between these learning modes, rather than the pandemic itself, emerged as the primary driver of learning loss. This study offers a comprehensive perspective on learning loss, outlining its manifestations, underlying causes, and potential mitigation strategies. The findings underscore the urgent need for stable, effective educational policies and targeted interventions to address emerging learning gaps. Given the study's focus on a single high-performing school, further comparative research involving both high-performing and regular schools is recommended to develop a broader and more inclusive understanding. Abstrak: Meskipun banyak penelitian telah menyelidiki penurunan kemampuan belajar (learning loss) dalam konteks pendidikan daring selama pandemi, hanya sedikit penelitian yang meneliti penurunan kemampuan belajar dalam berbagai lingkungan pendidikan, termasuk pembelajaran hibrida-fleksibel dan luring. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi dan menganalisis penurunan kemampuan belajar yang terjadi selama dan setelah pandemi di Indonesia. Dengan menggunakan pendekatan studi kasus, penelitian ini meneliti seluruh aspek pendidikan di era pandemi. Penelitian ini dilakukan di sekolah unggulan di Denpasar, Bali, dengan mengumpulkan data dari 192 siswa dan 10 guru melalui survei, observasi, dan wawancara. Data dianalisis menggunakan metode induktif dengan fokus pada wawasan kualitatif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penurunan kemampuan belajar terjadi di berbagai fase pembelajaran—daring, hibrida-fleksibel, dan luring. Studi ini mengungkap bahwa penyebab utama penurunan kemampuan belajar bukanlah karena pandemi, melainkan karena seringnya peralihan antara metode pembelajaran. Penelitian ini memberikan pandangan komprehensif mengenai penurunan kemampuan belajar, termasuk bentuk, penyebab, dan upaya mitigasi yang memungkinkan. Temuan ini menekankan perlunya strategi pendidikan yang stabil dan efektif serta intervensi yang terarah untuk mengatasi kesenjangan pembelajaran. Karena penelitian ini terbatas pada satu sekolah unggulan, disarankan agar penelitian lebih lanjut dilakukan dengan membandingkan penurunan kemampuan belajar di sekolah unggulan dan sekolah reguler untuk memperoleh pemahaman yang lebih luas.

Islamic Education in University Mosques: The Role of Campus Mosques in Shaping Students’ Religious Development
Campus mosques play a significant role in fostering students’ religious development, particularly within public universities where Islamic education is not the primary academic focus. However, this potential remains institutionally and programmatically underutilized. This study seeks to examine the religious development initiatives implemented by campus mosques through a critical synthesis of empirical studies conducted at various Indonesian universities. Utilizing a qualitative, literature-based conceptual approach, this article analyzes 23 scholarly sources, including journal articles, theses, and research reports published between 2015 and 2024. The findings reveal recurring patterns of religious mentoring, halaqah, thematic Islamic studies, and Islamic leadership training. Nevertheless, these practices are seldom systematized or formally integrated into university-wide character-building programs. This study contributes to the academic discourse by offering a synthesized framework of campus mosque practices and calls for further field-based research to inform institutional policy development rooted in Islamic values. Abstrak: Masjid kampus memiliki peran signifikan dalam membina keagamaan mahasiswa, terutama di perguruan tinggi umum yang tidak menempatkan pendidikan agama sebagai fokus utama akademik. Namun, peran ini masih belum dimanfaatkan secara maksimal secara kelembagaan maupun programatik. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji praktik pembinaan keagamaan mahasiswa yang dilakukan oleh masjid kampus melalui sintesis kritis terhadap studi-studi empiris di berbagai universitas di Indonesia. Dengan menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif berbasis studi literatur konseptual, artikel ini menganalisis 23 publikasi ilmiah yang terdiri dari artikel jurnal, skripsi atau tesis, dan laporan penelitian yang terbit antara tahun 2015 hingga 2024. Hasil kajian menunjukkan adanya pola berulang dalam kegiatan pembinaan seperti mentoring keislaman, halaqah, kajian tematik, dan pelatihan kepemimpinan Islami. Namun, pola-pola tersebut belum terdokumentasi secara sistematis dan belum terintegrasi secara formal dalam sistem pengembangan karakter di perguruan tinggi. Kajian ini memberikan kontribusi ilmiah berupa kerangka sintesis yang dapat menjadi pijakan awal dalam memperkuat fungsi kelembagaan masjid kampus serta mendorong penelitian lapangan lanjutan untuk mendukung kebijakan pembinaan mahasiswa berbasis nilai-nilai Islam.

Integrating Islamic and Muhammadiyah Values into Learning to Strengthen Character Development in Muhammadiyah Vocational Schools in Salaman
The primary challenge facing vocational education in Indonesia today extends beyond the acquisition of technical skills to include the urgent need for character formation, which is increasingly threatened by the forces of globalization and moral decline. This reality underscores the importance of a pedagogical approach that deliberately integrates Islamic and Muhammadiyah values into the educational process. This study aims to describe and analyze an integrated instructional model grounded in these values as a strategic framework for strengthening students' character at Muhammadiyah Vocational School in Salaman. Adopting a qualitative methodology with a case study design, data were collected through participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and document analysis to obtain a holistic understanding. The findings reveal that the integration of Islamic and Muhammadiyah values significantly enhances students’ discipline, sense of responsibility, and spiritual awareness. The model is structured around five key components: monotheism (tauhid), a thematic-integrative curriculum, reflective-participatory learning methods, a holistic character evaluation system, and strong institutional support. The comprehensive integration of these values proves to be an effective strategy for fostering sustainable character development in vocational education. Future studies are encouraged to examine the long-term impact of this model through longitudinal research and to explore the potential of digital technologies in advancing value-based character education. Abstrak: Tantangan utama pendidikan kejuruan di Indonesia saat ini bukan hanya berkutat pada penguasaan keterampilan teknis, tetapi juga pada persoalan pembentukan karakter siswa yang tergerus oleh arus globalisasi dan degradasi moral. Fenomena ini menuntut adanya pendekatan pembelajaran yang mengintegrasikan nilai-nilai keislaman dan keorganisasian secara sistematis dalam proses pendidikan. Studi ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan dan menganalisis model pembelajaran terintegrasi berbasis nilai-nilai Islam dan Kemuhammadiyahan sebagai strategi penguatan karakter siswa di Muhammadiyah Vocational Schools Salaman. Penelitian dikaji menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan desain studi kasus, melalui teknik observasi partisipatif, wawancara mendalam, serta telaah dokumen untuk memperoleh data secara komprehensif. Riset menemukan bahwa penerapan integrasi nilai Islam dan Kemuhammadiyahan mampu membentuk sikap disiplin, tanggung jawab, dan memantik kesadaran spiritual siswa. Model integrasi mencakup lima komponen utama yaitu ketauhidan, struktur kurikulum tematik-integratif, metode reflektif-partisipatif, sistem evaluasi karakter holistik, dan dukungan institusional. Integrasi menyeluruh nilai Islam dan Kemuhammadiyahan terbukti menjadi pendekatan strategis yang efektif untuk memperkuat karakter siswa SMK secara berkelanjutan. Penelitian lanjutan disarankan untuk mengevaluasi efektivitas jangka panjang model ini melalui studi longitudinal dan eksplorasi pemanfaatan teknologi digital dalam penguatan pendidikan karakter berbasis nilai Islam.

The Effect of the Scramble-Type Cooperative Learning Model Assisted by Picture Cards on Students' Reading Ability
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of the Scramble-type cooperative learning model, assisted by picture cards, on the reading ability of second-grade students at SD Negeri Kalibanteng Kidul 01. This research employed an experimental method using a Nonequivalent Control Group Design. The study population consisted of 60 students from two classes: Class II B (control group) and Class II C (experimental group), each comprising 30 students. The sample was selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected through oral reading tests. Data analysis involved the use of the Paired Sample t-test to measure the within-group effect, and the Independent Sample t-test to compare outcomes between groups. A significance level of 0.05 (two-tailed) was applied in both tests. The findings indicate that the Scramble-type cooperative learning model assisted by picture cards significantly improved students' reading ability. The Paired t-test results for the experimental class yielded a significance value of 0.000, which is less than 0.05, confirming the effectiveness of the intervention. Similarly, the Independent t-test showed a significance value of 0.013 (p < 0.05), indicating a statistically significant difference in reading performance between the experimental and control groups. These results demonstrate that the use of the Scramble cooperative learning model, when supported by picture cards, is more effective in enhancing students’ reading skills compared to conventional learning methods.

Reaffirming the Islamic Tarbiyah Halaqah Educational Model in Fostering Religious Character Among Students at Islamic Boarding School
This study aims to explore the reaffirmation of the Islamic Tarbiyah Halaqah educational model in cultivating religious character among students (santri) at Pondok Pesantren Umar bin Abdul Azis, Tomenawa Village, Baraka Subdistrict, Enrekang Regency. Employing a qualitative descriptive approach, the research utilized primary data collected from caretakers and leaders of the pesantren, as well as secondary data from relevant documents. Data were gathered through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and documentation. The data analysis process involved data reduction, presentation, and verification. The findings indicate that the model emphasizes character development through key religious activities such as congregational prayer, tahsinul qirā’ah (Qur’anic recitation enhancement), and taujihāt (spiritual guidance) provided by murabbis (mentors). The reaffirmation of this model has proven effective in nurturing religious character through the integration of religious instruction, daily practice, and social engagement. Contributing factors include the murabbi’s exemplary and affectionate guidance, the structured halaqah system, and a supportive environment provided by families and peers. In contrast, inhibiting factors include parental neglect in their children’s religious education and negative peer influences that may undermine the values taught within the pesantren. Abstrak: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji penegasan kembali model pendidikan Tarbiyah Halaqah Islam dalam menumbuhkan karakter religius pada santri di Pondok Pesantren Umar bin Abdul Azis, Desa Tomenawa, Kecamatan Baraka, Kabupaten Enrekang. Dengan menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif deskriptif, penelitian ini memanfaatkan data primer yang diperoleh dari para pengasuh dan pimpinan pesantren, serta data sekunder dari dokumen-dokumen terkait. Pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui wawancara mendalam, observasi partisipan, dan dokumentasi. Proses analisis data meliputi reduksi data, penyajian, dan verifikasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa model tersebut menekankan pada pengembangan karakter melalui kegiatan-kegiatan keagamaan utama seperti shalat berjamaah, tahsinul qirā’ah (peningkatan bacaan Al-Qur’an), dan taujihāt (bimbingan spiritual) yang diberikan oleh murabbi (mentor). Penegasan kembali model ini terbukti efektif dalam menumbuhkan karakter religius melalui integrasi pelajaran agama, praktik sehari-hari, dan keterlibatan sosial. Faktor pendukungnya antara lain bimbingan murabbi yang penuh keteladanan dan kasih sayang, sistem halaqah yang terstruktur, dan lingkungan yang mendukung dari keluarga dan teman sebaya. Sebaliknya, faktor penghambatnya antara lain pengabaian orang tua dalam pendidikan agama anak-anaknya dan pengaruh negatif teman sebaya yang dapat merusak nilai-nilai yang diajarkan di pesantren.

Islamic Educational Values in Inclusive Learning Practices: A Case Study at a Primary School in Yogyakarta
Islamic education, with its emphasis on moral and spiritual values, offers a strong foundation for fostering an inclusive learning environment. This study aims to examine the integration of Islamic values within inclusive learning practices at a primary school and to identify the challenges encountered in their implementation. Employing a qualitative approach and a case study design, the research involved in-depth interviews with special education teachers (GPK) and direct classroom observations. The findings reveal that Islamic values—such as justice, compassion, equality, and tolerance—are effectively applied in the school's inclusive practices. Nevertheless, the implementation faces notable challenges, including a shortage of GPK personnel and limited parental acceptance of children with special needs. Despite these obstacles, the school continues to make concerted efforts to ensure that every student feels welcomed and valued. The study concludes that Islamic values play a vital role in supporting inclusive education by fostering a just, compassionate, and equitable environment that promotes both social and academic development. Abstrak: Pendidikan Islam dengan nilai-nilai moral dan spiritualnya dapat memberikan landasan yang kuat untuk menciptakan lingkungan pembelajaran yang inklusif. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengeksplorasi penerapan nilai-nilai Islam dalam praktik pembelajaran inklusif di sekolah dasar dan mengidentifikasi tantangan yang dihadapi dalam implementasinya. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan desain studi kasus, yang melibatkan wawancara mendalam dengan guru pendamping khusus (GPK) dan observasi langsung. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa meskipun nilai-nilai Islam seperti keadilan, kasih sayang, kesetaraan dan toleransi telah diterapkan dengan baik, masih terdapat tantangan signifikan seperti keterbatasan jumlah GPK dan rasa keberterimaan orang tua terhadap anak mereka yang berkebutuhan khusus. Namun, upaya untuk memastikan setiap siswa merasa diterima dan dihargai terus dilakukan oleh pihak sekolah. Penelitian ini mengindikasikan bahwa nilai-nilai Islam seperti keadilan, kasih sayang, kesetaraan, dan toleransi, mendukung implementasi pendidikan inklusif yang dapat menciptakan lingkungan yang adil dan mendukung perkembangan sosial serta akademik siswa.
