Management of Islamic Boarding School Learning Through The Sorogan Method to Improve The Graduate Quality of Santri

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the implementation of learning management using the sorogan method at Pondok Pesantren Nurul Iman, Bandung City, in its effort to improve graduate quality to possess intellectual depth and spiritual maturity. This research employs a qualitative approach with a descriptive case study design. Data collection was conducted through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation study, which were then analyzed using George R. Terry's management theoretical framework (POAC). The results indicate that the learning management of the sorogan method is implemented systematically through: (1) Planning based on an adaptive hierarchical curriculum; (2) Organizing based on teacher specialization (takhassus) and functional grouping; (3) Actuating emphasizing dialogical interaction and motivation through a reward system; and (4) Inherent hierarchical supervision with the Munaqasyah examination as the primary quality assurance instrument. In conclusion, the success of improving graduate quality in urban Islamic boarding schools lies in the rigorous integration of Salaf tradition standards with modern managerial flexibility.
