Abstract

This research aims to examine the impact of educational technology and communication tools on Indonesian education, particularly in Islamic institutes. The pursuit of knowledge and the support of scholars are among the most essential human activities for national development, and the more attention given to teachers, the higher the quality of education becomes. The advancement of modern technology has significantly contributed to saving time, reducing costs, and improving efficiency in teaching and learning. Indonesian Islamic institutes have shown great interest in this field, especially in teaching Arabic and the Qur’an and in carefully selecting qualified educators. The study adopts a descriptive and comparative analytical approach to identify the qualitative challenges in Indonesian education and to explore how linguistic and cultural factors influence learning. The findings highlight that the use of educational technology facilitates remote learning and enhances quality, making it comparable to in-person education. Despite certain challenges, technological tools represent effective solutions that improve teaching outcomes and strengthen the connection between theory and practice within the Indonesian cultural context.
