The Influence of Internal and External Factors on Arabic Language Learning Interest among Arabic Language Education Students

Arabic language learning in the Arabic Language Education program at State Islamic University Sultan Aji Muhammad Idris Samarinda faces diverse challenges due to varying student interests. Interest, defined as attention and pleasure towards learning, is influenced by internal and external factors. The study aimed to assess these factors' impact on student interest. Employing quantitative methods, the research used multiple linear regression analysis on a sample of 75 third-semester students, utilizing observation, interviews, surveys, questionnaires, and documentation. Results revealed significant positive influence of internal factors on student interest (t-value = 3.385 > 1.993), while external factors exhibited significant, partially positive impact (t-value = -2.294 > 0.432) with some negative effects. Findings emphasize the need for students to recalibrate their intent and determination in Arabic language learning. They should also address external influences to maintain interest during their academic journey.

Motivating children to learn the Arabic language through classic Arabic books

This research aims to determine: (1) Al-Qur'an literacy activities (2) Children's motivation to learn Arabic through classic Arabic books and (3) Barriers to Al-Qur'an literacy activities. This research is descriptive in nature with a qualitative approach. The results of the research show that (1) The activities carried out at Madrasah Diniyah Sidomulyo are Al-Qur'an literacy activities which consist of practicing reading the Al-Qur'an, makharijul letters, and recitation knowledge.

Arab teacher educators and the moral work of teaching in Israel

ABSTRACT This qualitative study explores how 14 Arab teacher educators perceive the moral preparation of teachers for Arab schools in Israel. The first theme highlights the contingent (institutional) factors that influence and may restrain the teacher educators’ mission of moral preparation. It highlights the importance of an organisational culture that supports student teachers’ learning to provide moral education, of empowering and unsilencing of student teachers, and of promoting morally oriented reflective practice in students’ clinical experiences. The second theme illustrates the teacher educators’ psychological assumptions about morality as represented by the possibilities and constraints of role modelling in preparing moral teachers. The third theme addresses the teacher educators’ socio-educational (universal, counter-hegemonic, and liberal) assumptions about the moral purposes of schooling. These assumptions are influenced by the asymmetrical structure of Arab-Jewish power relationships, as well as by the transitional status of Arab society in Israel.

Arabic Language Implementation Viewed from A Social and Cultural Perspective at Maitreechit Withayattan School Bangkok

This research explores the implementation of Arabic language learning at the Maitreechit Withayattan School in Bangkok, Thailand. With a population dominated by a Muslim minority, this research aims to understand the challenges and potential for developing Arabic language education in this context. The research background reflects Thailand's uniqueness as an ASEAN country with a Muslim minority that is recognized and regulated by national law. The focus of the research is on issues of student interest, teaching methods, hidden learning goals, and the role of teachers in the learning process. The research method uses modern ethnographic studies at Maitrechit Wittaayathan School Bangkok. Research findings show that students' low interest is influenced by less innovative teaching methods and a need for more variety in learning. Hidden learning goals, which include students' political aspirations to support the position of Muslims in government, become a complex dynamic in Arabic language learning. The importance of Arabic in the government context was a significant finding, with students being taught that Arabic language skills can provide a competitive advantage in careers in the government sector. Despite challenges regarding student interest, school administrators' high enthusiasm for Arabic creates the potential for solid collaboration between education and religious identity development. Implications for Arabic language education management include the need for more exciting learning strategies, teacher training, and collaboration with external parties to increase the relevance of learning to careers. This research provides in-depth insight into the complex dynamics of Arabic language education in Muslim minority school environments in Thailand. However, it should be acknowledged that the research findings are limited to one school in Bangkok, and generalization of the findings must be done cautiously.
