Post-Covid-19 pandemic, virtual technology is no longer merely a solution for online learning but has become an integral part of modern education. Students of the Arabic Language Education (PBA) postgraduate program at UIN Maulana Malik Ibrahim Malang frequently utilize online platforms in learning activities to support teaching and learning processes, including discussions, presentations, assignment submissions, and evaluations. This study aims to describe the utilization, advantages, and disadvantages of virtual media technology in Arabic language learning among PBA postgraduate students after the pandemic. The study employs a mixed-method approach, combining qualitative and quantitative descriptive methods. Data were collected through unstructured interviews and questionnaires distributed to PBA postgraduate students. The findings reveal that students utilize virtual technology such as video conferencing platforms like Zoom and Google Meet for interactive learning, language learning applications like Duolingo for self-directed skill improvement, and digital dictionaries for flexible material access and vocabulary comprehension. Online discussion forums like WhatsApp are also used for collaboration and information exchange. Furthermore, students experience several advantages of virtual technology in learning Arabic, including time and place flexibility, easy access to learning materials, online interaction with teachers and peers, multimedia utilization, and self-paced learning. However, students also face challenges, including poor internet connections, limited direct interaction with instructors, difficulties understanding material online, lack of motivation for independent study, and insufficient opportunities for speaking practice.

The Role of Arabic Situational Teaching for Spoken Arabic Proficiency: Case Study of Elementary School Students in Malang

Apri Wardana Ritonga — 2025-08-06

The problem of speaking Arabic (ESA) is often an important issue in teaching Arabic to students. The situational language teaching (SLT) approach is seen as being able to be a solution to this problem. This study aims to analyze the approach of SLT to improve the ESA skills of primary school students. This study uses a qualitative approach with a case study method at Daarul Ukhuwwah Qur’an Basic School, Malang. The research sample is 45 students and 3 teachers. Data was collected through observation, interview, and document study. Then analyzed using the theory of Miles and Huberman. The results of the study show that the SLT approach makes students involved in communicative situations that are similar to their daily lives, but in a more formal context and in accordance with ESA. Teachers can arrange situations that demand the use of formal Arabic, such as class discussions, presentations, or role-plays involving situations in school or other formal environments. The SLT approach is also a solution for improving the Arabic language skills of primary school students starting with istima’, kalam, qira’ah, and kitabah in the context of real situations in everyday life.
