Artificial Intelligence as an Assistant and Generator of Student Learning in Islamic University
No full textThis research examines the knowledge and use of Artificial Intelligence in Education (AIEd) by students at three Islamic universities in Indonesia, namely Universitas Al-Qolam Malang (UQM), Institut Agama Islam Ibrahimy Banyuwangi, and Institut Agama Islam Al Muslim Aceh. This survey was conducted at the undergraduate and postgraduate levels. This study used a mixed-methods method with a multi-site case study design. Data were collected online through quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews, using three analytical techniques: pattern matching, explanation building, and logic models. The findings of the research indicate that the level of student knowledge about AIEd is still relatively low. The majority of students are not familiar with AIEd and its benefits in the learning process. Students use AIEd for various academic purposes. As a learning assistant, AI is used to access library materials (books, journals, and kitab kuning), text translation, infer PDF content, and plagiarism detection. As a generative AI, students use AI for citation management, paraphrasing texts, creating paper outlines, and even writing part or all of a paper. Students generally have a positive view of AIEd's prospects in the Islamic PT environment. They believe that AIEd can help improve the quality of learning and support the achievement of their learning goals. This research provides an overview of AIEd’s potential to revolutionize the design, processes, and learning assessment systems in Islamic universities. So the recommendation from these findings is the need for socialization, education and training efforts to increase student knowledge about AIEd and how to use it effectively
An Integrated English Model to Enhance English Competence in Islamic Higher Education through Habituation and Language Environment
Full text linkThe aim of this study was to develop an integrated model for enhancing students’ English competence through habituation and the language environment at the State Islamic University of Imam Bonjol Padang. The research and development type was used to develop the model in four phases, namely, need analysis, designing the model, validating, and a hypothetical model. 350 randomly selected active students participated in this research. Observation, questionnaires, interviews, and the TOEFL test were used to collect the data. The findings revealed that students' English competence was low, with a mean score of 65. Students tended to develop their competences through listening to music for listening skills, reading articles for reading skills, practicing individually for speaking skills, and sending messages for writing skills, with a mean score of 4.06. Reading, speaking, and writing skills were mostly improving. Students expressed a high demand for English club activities and academic English services to enhance their English competence through habituation and the language environment, with mean satisfaction scores of 84% and 86%. The hypothetical Integrated English Model (IEM) for enhancing English competence through habituation and the language environment consisted of four main phases: planning, organizing, implementing, and evaluating. The study concludes that designing this integrated model is crucial for improving students' English competence at the State Islamic University of Imam Bonjol Padang. It implies that an integrated English model for enhancing English competence will lead to significant improvements in English competence among students.

Comparative of Face to Face Learning vs Online Learning: Analysis of Students' Scientific Article Writing Skills Through Project-Based Learning
Full text linkOnline and face-to-face learning represent distinct educational contexts. Online learning refers to education or instruction conducted over the internet, whereas face-to-face learning occurs in a shared physical space and time. Nowadays, teachers have various options for conducting these learning processes. Each mode of learning possesses its own strengths and limitations. Consequently, this research aims to compare face-to-face and online learning in terms of students' skills in reproducing scientific article using Project-Based Learning (PjBL). This research method is a quantitative research with a quasi-experimental design. Two classes were selected as samples of this study using purposive sampling techniques. With the provision that one class is experimental class 1 by treating students in face-to-face learning mode using the PjBL model, while experimental class 2 learning is carried out online using the PjBL model. The research instrument used was a performance test, namely students making scientific papers. Analysis of research data using SPSS with the stages of normality test, homogeneity test, and t-test. The results of the study showed that there was a difference in the average learning outcomes of students, namely scientific writing skills using Project Based Learning between face-to-face learning and online learning. The results of this study can be concluded that learning with face-to-face classes obtains better learning outcomes compared to the Project Based Learning model which is better than online classe
