Using a descriptive qualitative method, data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation. The findings show that teachers with modern pedagogical approaches are more digitally prepared, actively participate in online training, and are innovative in creating learning media. In contrast, traditional teachers face digital literacy challenges and tend to be passive toward change. Traditional teachers rely on limited peer collaboration, while modern teachers utilize online training, sharing communities, and independent initiatives. This study highlights the need for structured training and adequate infrastructure tailored to each pedagogical approach and provides a foundation for further research on the effectiveness of digital learning strategies in Islamic education.</em></p> 2025-06-01T20:18:04+07:00 ##submission.copyrightStatement## https://ojs.unsiq.ac.id/index.php/paramurobi/article/view/8689 ANALISIS KEBIJAKAN DPPAI UII DALAM PENGUATAN NILAI KEAGAMAAN MAHASISWA BARU 2025-06-05T23:04:59+07:00 Liza Jauharotul Munfarida Al Khurriyyah lizajauhar@gmail.com Rizky Ginanjar Firdaus 24204011049@student.uin-suka.ac.id <p><em>This study aims to analyze the policies of the Directorate of Islamic Education and Development (DPPAI) at Universitas Islam Indonesia (UII) in strengthening the religious values of new students.

The students were selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through participant observation, in-depth interviews, document analysis, and open-ended questionnaires. The findings of the study indicated that students exhibited varying degrees of conceptual understanding, with 45% demonstrating a basic comprehension, 35% displaying a methodological understanding, and 20% exhibiting a comprehensive familiarity with the subject matter. In the implementation of integrated learning, three integration patterns were identified: direct (55%), analogical (30%), and reflective (15%). The primary challenges encountered pertain to conceptual aspects (interpretation and identification of verses), methodological aspects (learning models and media development), and practical aspects (time management and learning evaluation). In light of these findings, it is recommended that a gradual development model be implemented, comprising three phases: foundation reinforcement, guided practice, and independent development. The findings of this study indicate a need for a reconstruction of the PGMI curriculum that places greater emphasis on the systematic and sustainable development of integration competencies. </em></p> 2025-06-01T00:00:00+07:00 ##submission.copyrightStatement## https://ojs.unsiq.ac.id/index.php/paramurobi/article/view/9222 KYAI SEBAGAI LEADER DALAM MEMBENTUK KECERDASAN SPIRITUAL SANTRI DI PONDOK PESANTREN RAUDLATUL HIKMAH AS SYAFII 2025-06-07T22:43:27+07:00 Diana Masruroh dianamasruroh08@gmail.com Ahmad Khumaidi adi765316@gmail.com Nur Fatimah nurfatimahsholeh@gmail.com <p><em>The purpose of this research is to find out the kyai leadership model and the strategies used by kyai in developing the spiritual intelligence of students of the Raudlatul Hikmah As Syafii Islamic Boarding School.

Transdisciplinary Islamic education is offered as a solution that unites knowledge, values, and technology within the framework of Islamic philosophy. This study, through a literature review using a hermeneutic-philosophical approach, formulates the concept both philosophically and applicatively. The results show that transdisciplinary Islamic education is holistic, integrating spiritual, intellectual, and social dimensions; ontologically, it acknowledges the unity of the physical and metaphysical; epistemologically, it incorporates the bayani, burhani, irfani, and tajribi methods; and axiologically, it balances divine and human values. Technology is positioned as a strategic medium for integrating knowledge and values. The implementation model includes institutional reform, thematic-integrative curriculum, problem-based learning, and holistic evaluation. In conclusion, transdisciplinary Islamic education serves not merely as a vehicle for knowledge transfer but as a driver of social transformation and sustainable civilizational development. The study recommends cross-sector collaboration and the development of transdisciplinary competencies among educators as strategic steps for implementation in Islamic educational institutions in Indonesia.</em></p> 2025-06-01T00:00:00+07:00 ##submission.copyrightStatement## https://ojs.unsiq.ac.id/index.php/paramurobi/article/view/9410 PENGEMBANGAN TEORI HUMANISTIK ABRAHAM MASLOW DAN CARL ROGERS MENGENAI BULLYING SERTA IMPLIKASINYA PADA MADRASAH IBTIDAIYAH 2025-06-05T23:05:01+07:00 Putri Nadha Setyaningrum putrinadha6@gmail.com Ahmad Arifi ahmad.arifi@uin-suka.ac.id Jauhar Hatta jauhar.hatta@uin-suka.ac.id <p><em>This study discusses the development of Abraham Maslow and Carl Rogers' humanistic theory in the context of bullying and its implications for Madrasah Ibtidaiyah.

Hasyim Asy’ari in Adab al-‘Alim wa al-Muta’allim. The research employs a qualitative descriptive approach with a library research method. Data collection was conducted through an in-depth review of primary books, journals, and other relevant literature, and the data were analyzed using content analysis. The findings reveal that, according to Al-Ghazali, a teacher must show compassion toward students, emulate the Prophet Muhammad’s character, and teach sincerely for the sake of Allah’s pleasure. Students, in turn, are expected to purify their souls from negative traits and seek knowledge solely for the sake of Allah. Meanwhile, Hasyim Asy’ari views the teaching profession as deeply spiritual and sacred, requiring teachers to uphold high professional responsibility toward themselves, their students, and ultimately, to God.

According to Piaget, children aged 6–7 are in the transition from the preoperational to the concrete operational stage, making concrete and contextual HOTS approaches more effective.
