Abstract


This research investigated the integration and assessment of listening, speaking, viewing, and presenting skills within the specialized subjects of “Writing” and “Reading” at Assa’adah Islamic Boarding School, focusing on 4th-grade students under the Government Curriculum, the Merdeka Curriculum. The study evaluated how the segmentation of the English language curriculum into these specialized subjects impacted the overall effectiveness of English language learning. Using a qualitative approach guided by the ADDIE model (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation), data were collected through classroom observations, semi-structured interviews with teachers, curriculum staff, and students, and a thorough examination of curriculum documents. The result revealed that the segmented curriculum allowed for a more focused and structured approach to teaching English, enhancing students’ retention and understanding of language skills. The unique boarding school environment further supported this development through practical activities such as public speaking (muhadhoroh) and English debate training by adopted Gontor Curriculum with the name Madrasatul Mu`allimin Al-Islamiyah) MMI Assa’adah. Overall, the segmented curriculum and the boarding school environment significantly improved the English learning experience, meeting the objectives of the Merdeka Curriculum effectively.
