Trends in Islamic Education Policy Research Based on Bibliometric Study and Network Analysis in Scopus Database: Tren Riset Kebijakan Pendidikan Islam Berdasarkan Kajian Bibliometrik dan Analisis Jaringan di Basis Data Scopus
Full text linkThis study aims to analyze the development and trends of Islamic education policy research indexed in the Scopus database through a bibliometric approach. The focus of the study was directed at keyword mapping, author networks, institutional affiliations, and countries of origin of publications. The method used is bibliometric analysis with the help of VOSviewer, RStudio, and Microsoft Excel software to process publication metadata in the period 1974 to 2025. The results show that Indonesia is the country with the highest number of publications, followed by Iran and Malaysia. The trend of publications increased sharply after 2020, and the dominant keywords that emerged reflected the focus on curriculum, educational policies, as well as the integration of Islamic values in contemporary education. The theoretical contribution of this study lies in its unique approach, namely the use of bibliometric methods that have not been widely applied in the context of the study of Islamic education policy. This approach allows for a systematic and data-driven mapping of knowledge structures. Practically, these findings can be used by policy designers, managers of Islamic educational institutions, and curriculum developers as a reference in formulating strategies and policies that are adaptive to global scientific trends. However, this study has limitations in the scope of the data, which only includes English-language articles and the types of documents in the form of journal articles available at Scopus, so it is not fully representative of the entire global literature. Nevertheless, the results of this study are expected to contribute to the development of Islamic education policy strategies that are more adaptive to the times.
Highlights:
Rising Trends: Islamic education policy publications surged after 2020, with Indonesia leading in output.
Research Focus: Dominant keywords highlight themes like curriculum, policy, and integration of Islamic values.
Methodological Contribution: Utilizes bibliometric analysis—rare in this field—for systematic knowledge mapping.
Keywords: Bibliometric, Policy, Islamic Education, VOSviewe

Internalising Environmental Values through Islamic Religious Education in Junior High School: Internalisasi Nilai-Nilai Lingkungan Hidup melalui Pendidikan Agama Islam di Sekolah Menengah Pertama
Full text linkThis study aims to analyze the process of internalizing environmental character values through Islamic Religious Education (IRE) at SMP Alam Insan Mulia Lubuklinggau. Employing a qualitative case study approach, data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation involving the principal, vice principal for curriculum, and Islamic studies teachers. Data were analyzed using Miles and Huberman’s interactive model. The findings reveal that the internalization process follows three stages: value transformation, value transaction, and transinternalization, aligned with Thomas Lickona’s character components moral knowing, moral feeling, and moral action. The theoretical novelty of this study lies in integrating Lickona’s framework with Islamic values in the unique context of a nature-based Islamic school, which remains underexplored in existing literature. Practically, the findings offer insights for teachers and principals to design contextual IRE learning and for policymakers to promote Islamic-based environmental education. This study is limited to a single school context, hence its findings are not broadly generalizable; future research should involve diverse educational settings to enrich theoretical and practical perspectives.
Highlights:
Three-Stage Process: Internalization is done through transformation, transaction, and transinternalization stages.
Lickona’s Integration: Combines moral knowing, feeling, and action with Islamic values.
Contextual Insight: Offers a unique case from a nature-based Islamic school, informing IRE teaching practice and policy.

To realise the full potential of deep and equitable learning, educational practices must prioritise digital learning policies, SOLO Taxonomy support, and a culture of sustainable collaboration.
Highlights:
Real-time document collaboration supported structured cognitive progression within group learning activities.
Most students demonstrated integrated conceptual understanding at relational cognitive levels.
Infrastructure limitations and uneven participation constrained higher-order knowledge generalisation.

Bridging the Linguistic Gap: Development of learning media for a Special Indonesian-Arabic Dictionary: Menjembatani Kesenjangan Linguistik: Pengembangan media pembelajaran Kamus Khusus Indonesia-Arab
Full text linkThe necessity for dictionaries as a media for foreign language students, including Arabic, has consistently grown in significance. Particularly designed for students with a concentration in specialized disciplines, such as information engineering or technology. Nonetheless, an issue arises whereby pupils enrolled in the informatics engineering program at Darussalam Gontor University's Faculty of Science and Technology encounter challenges when attempting to compose scientific papers in Arabic due to the fact that, in addition to English, Arabic is required as the language of instruction for final assignments like theses. The issue is that there is no Indonesian-Arabic dictionary that could assist them in translating scientific terms into Arabic in accordance with their study program. At the moment, the Arabic-Indonesian dictionaries that are accessible are characterized by their general nature, lacking subject-specific specificity. Drawing from the provided information, the researcher intends to undertake an investigation concerning the compilation of the dictionary " التكنولوجيا المؤصر" The dictionary's purpose is to serve as a supplementary resource for Arabic language learners enrolled in the Informatics Engineering Study Program at Darussalam Gontor University's Faculty of Science and Technology. The objective of this study is to develop a functional and empirically sound bilingual dictionary between Indonesian and Arabic.

Education Policy in Rapid Education and Its Implementation in Educational Institutions: Kebijakan Pendidikan dalam Pendidikan Cepat dan Implementasinya di Lembaga Pendidikan
No full textFor a really long time, Islamic life experience schools have been oppressed, both as far as acknowledgment and the situation with certificates that are not perceived by the state. understudies experience segregation in the working environment for a really long time. Moreover, pesantren are thought of as unfit to rival other regular instructive establishments at the institutional level, making it challenging to get the greatest government support. It is hoped that by conducting research using the library research method, a qualitative research approach, and naturalistic research methods, it will be possible to demonstrate that the existence of Law 18 of 2019 concerning Islamic Boarding Schools is an acknowledgment of the existence of Islamic boarding schools and their significant contribution to Indonesian education and teaching. Under Law 18 of 2019, the FKPM (Mu'Jadi Islamic Boarding School Communication Forum), which is a gathering forum for Asatidz, Kyai, and heads of Islamic boarding schools, was born out of the Islamic boarding school law. Modern Islamic Boarding Schools as well as Salaf Islamic Boarding Schools are among the members. Regulation 18 of 2019 also kills victimization graduate class of Islamic life experience schools in all lines of government and society.
