Abstract

This study aims to explore and describe creative project-based Arabic language learning strategies in universities in Central Java. The importance of this research lies in its efforts to address the challenges in learning Arabic in the modern era by introducing innovative and interactive approaches. A creative project-based approach is expected to increase student engagement, motivation, and ability to learn Arabic. The research method used is qualitative, with data collection techniques in the form of in-depth interviews, class observations, and document analysis. The research subjects include lecturers and students from several universities in Central Java who have implemented this learning strategy. The results of the study show that this strategy is able to increase students' interest and active participation in learning Arabic. The creative projects carried out, such as the nahwu sharaf olympiad, taqdimul qishah, musabaqah qiroatul kupole, qiroatus Shi'ir, ghina Arabi', calligraphy and khitobah provide opportunities for students to apply their knowledge of Arabic in a real context. The implementation of creative project-based learning strategies in universities in Central Java has proven to be effective in increasing students' motivation and Arabic language skills.
