SWOT Analysis (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats) of Teachers in the Quality of Learning at Pondok Pesantren Darul Ma’arif NU Rejang Lebong
Main Article Content
Abstract
This study aims to analyze the SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats) factors that influence teacher performance in relation to the quality of learning at Pondok Pesantren Darul Ma’arif NU Rejang Lebong. This approach is used to obtain a comprehensive understanding of the internal and external conditions that impact the effectiveness of the learning process. The method employed is a descriptive qualitative approach, using data collection techniques such as in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation studies. The informants consist of the pesantren caretakers, teachers, senior students, and curriculum managers. Data analysis was conducted through the stages of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing using the SWOT framework. The results of the study show that teachers possess strengths in the form of high religious competence, dedication and moral integrity, as well as emotional closeness with the students. However, weaknesses were also identified, such as limited formal pedagogical training, the use of traditional teaching methods, and minimal utilization of educational technology. On the other hand, strategic opportunities exist in the form of support from the community and alumni, training programs from the government or civil society organizations, and the potential for collaboration with higher education institutions. Meanwhile, the threats faced include underutilized technological developments, competition with digitally-based institutions, and increasing expectations from students' parents. Based on the analysis results, a teacher development strategy has been formulated through enhanced pedagogical capacity, integration of technology in learning, and strengthening of external networks. This research is expected to serve as a strategic reference in the development of teaching resources to support the continuous improvement of learning quality in the pesantren environment.
