This study examines students’ interest in participating in the Al-Kautsar Tahfidz Dormitory Program at MAN 1 Baubau and identifies the factors influencing their participation. The study also seeks to provide a deeper understanding of how both internal and external conditions shape students’ willingness to engage in the program. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, data were collected through semi-structured interviews with dormitory supervisors, participating students, and non-participating students. Additional supporting information was also gathered through informal discussions and observation in the dormitory environment to strengthen the data validity. Data were analyzed through data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing in an iterative process to ensure accurate interpretation. The findings indicate that students’ interest is shaped by internal factors, such as religious motivation, the desire to memorize the Qur’an, and self-improvement, as well as external factors, including parental support, peer influence, program socialization, and the religious dormitory environment. Conversely, low interest is associated with limited family support, low self-confidence in Qur’anic literacy, competing activities outside school, and perceptions of a demanding dormitory schedule. Overall, the program contributes positively to students’ religious character, discipline, and Qur’anic memorization skills, although variations in student interest remain evident depending on their personal and environmental conditions.

This study was motivated by the fact that students still experience difficulties in understanding Nahwu and Shorof despite studying both sciences in Islamic boarding schools. The purpose of this research was to examine the perspectives of Arabic language, Nahwu, and Shorof teachers regarding the importance of Nahwu and Shorof in Arabic language learning, their understanding of the concepts and applications, and the effectiveness of learning implementation at Madrasah Aliyah Al-Hidayah East Tanjung Jabung. This research employed a descriptive qualitative approach using interviews, observations, and documentation as data collection techniques. Data analysis was conducted through data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing, while data validity was ensured through source and technique triangulation. The findings revealed that teachers considered Nahwu and Shorof as the fundamental basis of Arabic language learning because these sciences regulate sentence structures, word transformations, and meanings in Arabic texts. Teachers believed that mastery of Nahwu and Shorof is essential for understanding the Qur’an, hadith, and classical Islamic books. The learning process was considered fairly effective since many students already had prior knowledge from pesantren education and showed progress during the learning process. However, the effectiveness of learning still faced several obstacles, including low student motivation, differences in students’ basic abilities, limited learning time, and the complexity of the material. This study concludes that improving the quality of Nahwu and Shorof learning requires more varied teaching methods, continuous motivation, regular material reinforcement, and stronger institutional support.

Adolescent drug abuse remains a major public health concern with adverse consequences for health, social functioning, and educational attainment. Limited knowledge and poor refusal skills in the face of environmental pressure are key risk factors. This study assessed the outcomes of a school-based Participatory Action Research (PAR) intervention aimed at improving students’ knowledge and preventive attitudes toward drug abuse. The program was implemented at Madrasah Aliyah Manaratul Islam, Jakarta (August 2025), involving 57 students. The educational intervention combined interactive counseling, small-group discussions, and role-play simulations, followed by pre–post evaluation using the same questionnaire and quantitative analysis with the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Results demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in post-test scores compared with pre-test scores (Z = −3.506; p < 0.001; r = 0.46), with a mean paired difference (pre–post) of −0.877 indicating a positive shift after the intervention. Descriptively, the proportion of students classified with high awareness increased to 87.7% after the program, while mean knowledge scores rose from 63.2% to 85.5%. Qualitative feedback further suggested better understanding of physical and psychological harms, increased confidence to refuse illicit substances, and more active communication with peers and teachers.

Adolescent pregnancy is one of the health problems that requires serious attention so that efforts are needed to increase awareness of reproductive health for all teenagers. The purpose of this community service is to increase the knowledge of teenagers at MAN Seram Bagian Barat about reproductive health and increase adolescent awareness in preventing early pregnancy. The method used is to provide education to teenagers at Madrasah Aliyah Negeri Seram Bagian Barat. Teenagers are very enthusiastic about this activity by asking various questions and the active discussion makes teenagers more enthusiastic. The final result is that 26 teenagers have good knowledge after being given education, from previously only 11 teenagers. The conclusion is that teenagers understand how to prevent early pregnancy in teenagers at MAN Seram Bagian Barat. It is hoped that good knowledge will prevent teenagers from engaging in free sex behavior that can result in pregnancy at a young age.

Game-based learning has emerged as a relevant instructional strategy to address the challenges of 21st-century education, including in Islamic Religious Education (PAI), which is often perceived as monotonous and less engaging for students. This study aims to describe the implementation of game-based learning in enhancing students’ learning motivation in the PAI subject at MA Yapina. This research employed a descriptive qualitative approach with data collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The findings indicate that the use of educational games—both digital and non-digital—creates a more interactive and enjoyable learning atmosphere while encouraging active student participation. Students demonstrated increased motivation, self-confidence, and interest in understanding religious concepts more deeply. In addition to boosting motivation, game-based activities contributed to better conceptual understanding through collaborative tasks and contextual simulations of Islamic values. However, several challenges were identified, including limited teacher competence in using game-based media and unequal availability of technological facilities. These findings suggest that game-based learning holds significant potential for PAI instruction but requires adequate teacher support and sufficient infrastructure to optimize its implementation. This study is expected to serve as a reference for developing innovative and creative learning strategies in Islamic Religious Education that align with the characteristics of digital-native learners.

This study aims to analyze the effect of strengthening the Pancasila Student Profile on the development of students' character in Social Science (IPS) subjects at Madrasah Aliyah Alkhairat Bolangitang Barat. Strengthening the Pancasila Student Profile has become a key focus in the implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum, which emphasizes the development of values such as religiosity, mutual cooperation, creativity, independence, global diversity, and critical thinking in students. This research uses a quantitative approach with a survey method, distributing questionnaires to 57 students. Data analysis was performed using simple linear regression with the help of SPSS to determine the contribution of the Pancasila Student Profile Strengthening variable (X) to students' character development (Y). The results show the regression equation Ŷ = 53.782 + 0.586X, indicating that every 1% increase in variable X will raise variable Y by 0.586. The positive regression coefficient indicates a significant and positive relationship between the two variables. The R Square value of 0.533 suggests that 53.3% of the variation in students' character is explained by strengthening the Pancasila Student Profile, while 46.7% is influenced by other factors outside the study. Thus, it can be concluded that the implementation of the Pancasila Student Profile Strengthening program plays an important role in improving students' character in IPS learning.
