The research methodology applied is qualitative, where researchers are directly involved in collecting data at the research location. The object of the research is the principal's role in monitoring the learning process at school. Data were collected through direct observation and interviews with principals and teachers. The implications of this study provide a deeper understanding of the significant role of school principals as supervisors in improving the quality of learning. Related to this study, the researcher found that awareness of supervisory activities by school principals at SDN 6 Pemulutan Selatan is still lacking in attention and implementation. The results showed that supervision by principals of the learning process and teacher performance had a positive impact on improving the quality of learning. The results of this discussion can be seen that first, by supervising learning, principals can evaluate the teaching methods used, the effectiveness of learning, and student responses to learning. Second, the obstacles to supervising the quality of learning can be caused by factors such as incomplete infrastructure and limited time for school principals. Third, the benefits of monitoring the quality of learning are getting information on the teaching and learning process as evaluation material.</em></p> Nurnida Usholicchah, Ade Akhmad Saputra Copyright (c) 2024 IJLHE: International Journal of Language, Humanities, and Education https://jurnal.stkippgribl.ac.id/index.php/ijlhe/article/view/1507 Fri, 14 Jun 2024 00:00:00 +0000 Use of Regional Languages in Indonesian Language Learning at Kampar Regency Elementary Schools https://jurnal.stkippgribl.ac.id/index.php/ijlhe/article/view/1512 <p>This research aims to analyze the use of regional languages ​​in student communication in Indonesian language learning at Kampar Regency Elementary Schools.

Second, what is the motivation for learning English for Madrasah Diniyah teachers at STAI Al-Yasini Pasuruan. The relevant theories in analyzing this research are innovation theory and McClelland's Achievement Motivation Theory. The research method is qualitative phenomenology. The results of this research are first, the innovation in English language learning for Madrasah Diniah teachers psychologically has taken into account the elements: 1) freedom from traditional authority and anti-dogmatic thinking, that English can be a wider tool for preaching. 2) paying attention to community problems, meaning combining English words with Arabic letters reduces the problems of Madin teachers who are not used to speaking English 3) open to new experiences or not awkward with English 4) Confident in knowledge and reasoning. 5) Responsive planning, future oriented, not easily satisfied. 6) in English, Madarasah Diniah teachers have high aspirations, are educated, cultured and professional. Second, in McCleland's view, the scholarships provided by the Pasuruan Regency government are a form of attention, cleanliness and extrinsic motivation to Madrasah Diniyah teachers so that they can develop and be in harmony with teachers in schools in general who have degrees. Third, according to McClelland, Pasuruan Madrasah Diniyah teachers have potential that can be developed through individual motivation, and are supported by the situation and opportunities available such as scholarships for Madrasah Diniyah teachers provided by the Pasuruan district government. Potential here according to McClelland refers to three forms of needs, namely; 1) the need for achievement (need of achievement), 2) the need for power (need of power), 3) the need for affiliation (need of affiliation). These three forms of needs have been fulfilled by the students of Madrasah Diniyah teachers.</p> Dewi Masitah, M.
