This study aims to examine learning typologies in Arabic language instruction and analyze how differences in learning styles influence the effectiveness of the learning process. The study focuses on identifying the characteristics of visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learning types and how these variations can serve as the basis for designing more adaptive and meaningful Arabic teaching strategies. The method employed is a literature review, involving the examination of books, journal articles, previous research findings, and other relevant scientific documents. The analysis was conducted through the collection of references, in-depth review, critical evaluation, categorization of findings, and theoretical synthesis, resulting in a comprehensive description of learning typologies within the context of Arabic language learning. The findings indicate that Arabic language learning is influenced not only by variations in learning typologies but also by fundamental conceptual foundations of learning, which include philosophical, psychological, sociological, and communicative aspects. Learning typologies visual, auditory, and kinesthetic play a significant role in determining how learners understand and respond to Arabic material. Furthermore, learning success is strongly shaped by the application of active learning principles and the learners' cognitive processes. The cognitive domain, which refers to mental abilities to think, establish associations, understand, and analyze knowledge, becomes a crucial element in optimizing language comprehension. These findings affirm that Arabic language learning will be more effective when teachers are able to integrate fundamental learning concepts and adapt teaching strategies to learners' typologies and cognitive abilities.

Moral learning in junior high schools often faces challenges in improving the understanding and application of moral values in everyday life, especially in the material of Trustworthiness and Honesty. This paper is intended to explain the design of the Problem-based learning (PBL) learning method as an innovation in moral learning of the material of Trustworthiness and Honesty in class VIII of SMP Muhammadiyah 4 Panarukan, which is expected to improve students' understanding through a more contextual, active, and applicable learning experience. The PBL method allows students to analyze real problems related to Trustworthiness and Honesty, develop solutions, and reflect on the application of these values in everyday life. This learning design method adopts two stages of the ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation) model, namely the needs analysis stage and the learning design stage. The results of the study indicate that the need for moral learning in class VIII of junior high school includes the importance of more interactive and problem-based methods, which can bridge the gap between moral theory and its application in real life. This PBL learning design integrates case studies, group discussions, and reflection to create meaningful learning experiences related to the values of Trustworthiness and Honesty. Although this design has considered various pedagogical and contextual aspects, the method is still in the design stage and has not been directly implemented or evaluated. Therefore, further research is needed to test the effectiveness of the PBL method in the context of moral learning at SMP Muhammadiyah 4 Panarukan.

Islamic education has a strategic role in shaping the character, morality, and spirituality of students, but it is faced with complex challenges in the era of social, cultural, and technological transformation. The low pedagogic and professional competence of some teachers, the limitations of digital literacy, the dominance of conventional learning methods, and a less contextual curriculum are significant obstacles. This service program is designed to improve the competence of madrasah teachers through participatory training approaches, intensive mentoring, and strengthening learning communities based on the concepts of Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) and Professional Learning Community (PLC). Activities include initial assessments, competency workshops, the use of learning technology, weekly mentoring, and pre-test and post-test evaluations. The results showed a significant increase in pedagogic competence (28%) and mastery of technology (34%), accompanied by positive changes in motivation, innovative attitudes, and awareness of contextualization of teaching materials. However, time constraints, variations in digital literacy, and institutional support are obstacles that need to be overcome through synergy between stakeholders. These findings underscore the importance of continuous, reflective, and contextual coaching models to strengthen the role of teachers as agents of change in Islamic education.

Education is a fundamental right that must be fought for by every child in the nation, and throughout its development, it continues to undergo innovations and evaluations toward better quality. One educational model that is growing in Indonesia is the boarding school system, which has its own characteristics, advantages, and challenges. This study aims to describe the social studies (IPS) teachers’ strategies in boarding school–based learning, the implementation of IPS learning within the boarding school environment, and the obstacles faced by IPS teachers at MTs Darul Hikmah. This research employs a qualitative approach with a case study design. The study was conducted at Pondok Modern Darul Hikmah Tulungagung, with seventh-grade students as research subjects. Data collection techniques included observation, interviews, and documentation. The results show several factors that influence the low effectiveness of IPS learning in boarding schools, including the dense institutional activity schedule that reduces students’ learning focus, teachers’ limited mastery of the subject matter and classroom management, and the dual curriculum implemented simultaneously within the institution. Efforts to improve IPS learning effectiveness include enhancing teacher discipline when entering and leaving the classroom, utilizing audio-visual learning media, and connecting learning materials with current issues to make the lessons more relevant and engaging. Furthermore, the study reveals several advantages of boarding school–based education, such as fostering students’ independence, developing social awareness, providing deeper religious instruction, and integrating both general and religious education. Thus, IPS learning in boarding schools has the potential to develop more optimally with the support of appropriate learning strategies and more structured institutional management.

This community service activity aims to improve the time management skills and understanding of fifth-grade students at SDN Kuin Selatan 3 through educational outreach and learning assistance. The background of this activity is the low awareness of students in utilizing their time effectively due to a lack of understanding of the importance of time planning. The implementation methods include interactive outreach, daily schedule planning exercises, ice-breaking activities, and pre- and post-activity questionnaires to assess students level of understanding. The evaluation results show an increase in the average score from 23.5 to 27.3, or an increase of 3.8 points (16.17%). The aspects with the highest increase were the ability to distinguish between study and play time by 80% and the use of time reminders by 52.63%. These results indicate that socialization and mentoring activities have a positive impact on students' awareness, discipline, and responsibility in managing time. These activities are effective as character education efforts based on time management at the elementary school level.
