ABSTRACT

Most of the problems of students in Islamic boarding schools are communicated to their peers or Kyai/Nyai. In contrast, the role of guidance and counseling teachers in dealing with student problems at Islamic boarding schools is still very minimal. Therefore, a reference is needed to carry out guidance and counseling. In addition, the initial problems when students have just entered Islamic boarding schools are dominated by poor adaptation, lack of self-confidence, lack of solid commitment, and feeling of isolation, so an increase in self-efficacy is needed. In this regard, this research aims to produce the application of Islamic guidance and counseling (BKI) to increase students’ self-efficacy. This development is carried out because students need to carry out self-development tasks in the personal, social, academic, and career fields using applications that are easy to use anytime and anywhere. Application development is based on the need assessment of students and then develops BKI materials in the android application. ADDIE (i.e., Analysis, Design, Development or Production, Implementation or Delivery, and Evaluations) development research method consists of steps to create a product, test material experts, and make product revisions.
