The Language Development Center (P2B) is one of the institutions under management of UIN Sunan Ampel Surabaya. This program has responsibility in strengthening Arabic language competence for all students. The standardization of Arabic language competencies is an Arabic language learning intensification program that is managed by P2B. P2B has made various efforts in improving student competence in Arabic, one of it is by reformulating the Arabic Language learning model, namely by implementing online learning using the E-edition Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) program. The Intensive Arabic Language learning program is done twice a week which are divided into two study groups based on the language competency classifications students. All Intensive Arabic Instructors have different learning strategies, adjusting the characteristics and competencies of their students in each class. As a final test is conducted using an online test called Final Online Test (FOT), It means to measure the results of the Arabic language learning that has been done. The type of this  research is a  qualitative descriptive analysis research, with deep interview, documentation, group discussion forum as data collection technique.

Arabic Intensive Program is an Arabic learning program that has been implemented by Madrasah Alsun. The program aims to improve the language competence of the Arabic Teacher Education (PBA) Study Program students whose language competence is still below the standard. PBA study program then cooperated with Madrasah Alsun Sidoarjo to hold Arabic Intensive Program through 'Pesantren Kilat' to improve the Arabic language competence for the students. Pesantren Kilat was held during the two-month semester break. This research used descriptive qualitative research with purposive sampling. The data collection techniques in this study include: Observation, Interview, Documentation, Triangulation and Forum Group Discussion (FGD). The data analysis technique is Interactive Analysis model. In this model, there are three components: data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion or verification. According to the results of the interviews conducted by the researcher, it can be concluded that the success of language learning, including the Arabic language, is not solely related to the competence of the teachers, but actually includes all the components such as capacity of the students, the teaching methods, the supporting media, the learning environments and students’ motivation. Various methods are often used to achieve the effectiveness of learning in the classroom, especially for the students with low Arabic competence

The research design used was True-Experimental Design research with a population of all fourth grade students at SDN 067250 Medan Deli totaling 46 people, namely 25 students in the experimental class and 21 people in the control class. The data collection technique used was a performance test that had been previously tested using a rater reliability test and a content validation test. While testing the hypothesis using the t test (independent sample t-test). Based on the results of the research conducted, it is known that the predata data for the experimental and control classes are normally distributed and homogeneous. The value of t-count predata is smaller than t-table (-0.30956 <1.684), meaning that Ho is accepted. Ho is accepted, meaning that the experimental and control groups have the same variance at the time of pre-data. The posttest results show that the data for both classes are normally distributed and homogeneous. The posttest t-count value is greater than the t-table price (2.072 > 1.684), meaning that Ha is accepted. Ha is accepted, meaning that Think Pair Share is more effective when compared to conventional methods for science learning outcomes for fourth grade students at SDN 067250 Medan Deli. The effectiveness of the Think Pair Share model is expected to be a consideration for fourth grade teachers at SDN 067250 Medan Deli to apply the Think Pair Share model to science learning with other aspects or materials. The use of the Think Pair Share model is expected to be an effective science learning model.

Implementing cutting-edge approarch blended learning in ELT which combines offline and online meeting is not necessarily with no problem. The present study evaluates students in intensive English class at UINSA regarding the challenges and responses that might appear during implementing ED. Twenty five students throught faculties were involvedin individual in-dept interviews to gain representative views. The result indicated that most of the students had possitive responses towards the use of ED. However, applying ED also obtains some hindrance: those constraints are grouped into several categories such as technology, content, and psychological. The present study evaluates students' challenges and how they cope with the problemsduring employing English Discovery in intensive English program at UINSA. The finding indicated that the challenges faced by students consist of technical problems, content, psychological constraints. Things that could minimaze those encountered challenges are searching strong connection, time management, teacher's guidance, self-awareness. The findings are hoped to give evaluation towards the stake holders.
