Modernization of education in Islamic boarding schools is an important need to maintain the relevance of learning in the digital era. Salafiyah Islamic boarding schools, which are synonymous with the traditional approach through the study of the Yellow Book, face the challenge of adapting technological developments without losing their scientific character.

Madrasas and Islamic boarding schools are Islamic educational institutions that have a strategic role in shaping the character, morals, and competencies of students. In addition to carrying out the formal learning process, these two institutions are also centers for moral, spiritual, and social development. In their operations, madrasas and pesantren manage various administrative activities, such as student data collection, attendance recording, grade processing, teacher data management, lesson schedule preparation, and delivery of academic information to related parties. However, many institutions still use manual systems that rely on notebooks or separate applications that are not integrated. This condition poses a number of obstacles, including the high risk of recording errors, duplicate data that is difficult to track, the slow process of recapitulation of grades and attendance, and delays in the delivery of academic information. In addition, manual processes cause administrative management to be less efficient and prone to data loss. As the need for fast, accurate, and accurate information increases, technological solutions are needed that are able to integrate all administrative and academic processes in one centralized system. Web-based information systems are an effective alternative to improve work efficiency, minimize errors, and facilitate access to information for teachers, students, and guardians. With the implementation of a well-managed system, madrasas and Islamic boarding schools are expected to improve the quality of services and support a more modern, structured, and sustainable learning process.

This study aims to examine the communication strategies implemented in the Qur’an memorization (tahfidz) program at Al-Qur’an Ath-Thabraniyah Islamic Boarding School (Pesantren). The tahfidz program is a complex process that not only emphasizes the cognitive aspect of memorization but also involves deep emotional and spiritual approaches. Communication strategies serve as the main instrument in building understanding, creating acceptance, and motivating students (santri) to achieve their memorization targets. This research uses a qualitative approach with methods including observation, interviews, and documentation to obtain in-depth data. The findings reveal that tahfidz instructors apply communication strategies based on Pace and Faules’ theory, which consists of three main objectives: To Secure Understanding, To Establish Acceptance, and To Motivate Action. These strategies are applied through providing insight into the virtues of Qur’an memorizers, setting appropriate schedules for memorization activities, and delivering motivation through inspirational stories and the benefits of memorizing the Qur’an. The tasmi’ sessions, held regularly, also serve as a medium for evaluation and for strengthening the students’ spiritual and mental development. With effective communication strategies, the tahfidz guidance process becomes more efficient, thus enhancing students’ enthusiasm and discipline in memorizing the Qur’an optimally.

Many students face difficulties and lack confidence when it comes to English pronunciation, often doubting whether their pronunciation is correct. One significant challenge they face is the difference in dialect and pronunciation between their native language and the target language. In Indonesia, a Muslim-majority country, many students are familiar with Arabic, particularly in pesantren-based schools. Arabic and English share certain phonetic features, especially in the fricative consonant sounds, which could help Indonesian students learn English pronunciation more easily. This study explores how learning Arabic might aid in improving English pronunciation, specifically focusing on fricative sounds. Using a mixed-methods approach that combines both quantitative and qualitative data, this research applies a pre-experimental one-group pre-test and post-test design. The study involved fifteen junior high school students in grade VIII from an Islamic character school. The primary goal of the research was to assess how the students’ English pronunciation, particularly on fricative sounds, improved after learning Arabic. The results show a significant improvement in the pronunciation of /f/, /ʃ/, /s/, /z/, and /ʒ/ sounds. However, the students showed less improvement in the pronunciation of /ð/ and /θ/ sounds. This suggests that while Arabic may offer some advantages in mastering specific English sounds, there may be challenges that still hinder the improvement of other English consonants. These findings could provide insights into language learning strategies and the potential role of Arabic in enhancing English pronunciation.
