Sistem Informasi Monitoring Hafalan Al-Qur'an Pondok Pesantren Al-Madina Banjarnegara Berbasis Android

Abstract

Pondok Pesantren Al-Madina Banjarnegara merupakan lembaga pendidikan Islam yang menyelenggarakan program hafalan Al-Qur'an secara intensif bagi santri. Namun, proses pencatatan hafalan yang masih dilakukan secara manual menimbulkan berbagai kendala, seperti lambatnya pendistribusian informasi, potensi kehilangan data, serta kesulitan wali santri dalam menghubungkan perkembangan anak secara rutin dan real-time . Hal ini berdampak pada rendahnya efisiensi serta transparansi dalam proses evaluasi pembelajaran hafalan. Untuk menjawab tantangan tersebut, dikembangkan sebuah sistem informasi monitoring hafalan berbasis Android dengan menggunakan pendekatan Rapid Application Development (RAD). Pendekatan RAD dipilih karena mampu mempercepat proses pengembangan sistem melalui iterasi prototipe dan keterlibatan langsung pengguna. Sistem yang dibangun dilengkapi dengan fitur pencatatan hafalan digital oleh ustaz, pengiriman notifikasi otomatis kepada wali santri melalui Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM), serta laporan perkembangan hafalan berupa e-Rapor yang dapat diakses dan diunduh melalui aplikasi. Sistem ini juga mengintegrasikan halaman Al-Qur'an digital yang bersumber dari API EQuran.id. Dengan adanya sistem ini, proses pencatatan hafalan menjadi lebih sistematis, informasi dapat tersampaikan secara cepat dan akurat, serta komunikasi antara pesantren dan wali santri menjadi lebih efektif. Pengembangan sistem ini diharapkan tidak hanya menyelesaikan permasalahan administratif, tetapi juga menjadi langkah awal transformasi digital dalam pengelolaan pendidikan pesantren.Al-Madina Islamic Boarding School in Banjarnegara is an Islamic educational institution that conducts an intensive Quran memorization program for its students (santri). However, the current manual method of recording memorization progress poses several challenges, such as slow information dissemination, potential data loss, and difficulties for parents in monitoring their children's development routinely and in real time. These issues result in inefficiencies and a lack of transparency in the memorization evaluation process. To address these challenges, an Android-based Quran memorization monitoring information system was developed using the Rapid Application Development (RAD) approach. RAD was chosen due to its ability to accelerate system development through prototype iterations and active user involvement. The system includes features such as digital memorization logging by instructors (ustaz), automatic notifications to parents via Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM), and progress reports in the form of downloadable e-report cards (e-Rapor) accessible through the app. The system also integrates digital Quranic pages sourced from the EQuran.id API. The implementation of this system enables a more systematic memorization recording process, facilitates rapid and accurate information delivery, and enhances communication between the boarding school and parents. This development not only addresses administrative issues but also represents a foundational step toward digital transformation in pesantren educational management.
