This study employed a mixed-methods research design with an Exploratory Sequential Design. The initial qualitative phase explored the language ecosystem and educators' TPACK capacity through observations, curriculum document analysis, and in-depth interviews with 8 key informants (via snowball sampling). Qualitative findings formed the basis for the subsequent quantitative instrument, which consisted of direct, face-to-face oral performance testing based on IMTA's descriptors. A quantitative sample of 30 fifth-grade KMI students was selected via simple random sampling from a homogeneous population of 150 students and analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics via SPSS 25.0. The language immersion model is implemented through a 24-hour hybrid integration that combines boarding discipline with controlled use of smart classes (Smart TV, PC, LCD, and internet). Teachers' TPACK integration manifested as functionally subordinate, with Technological Knowledge (TK) strictly serving active Content Knowledge (CK) representations and driving direct/communicative Pedagogical Knowledge (PK) strategies. Challenges regarding physical fatigue and informal fushā inconsistency were addressed through teacher digital literacy enhancement and educational sanctions (ta'zīr tarbawī). Quantitative measurements revealed an average mahārah kalām score of 89.17 (SD = 5.27). IMTA level distribution showed that 63.33% of students achieved Level 6 (Al-Tamayyuz) and 36.67% reached Level 5 (Al-Kifāyah), confirming that 100% of the sample surpassed the elementary level evenly ($p = 0.294$). Vocabulary range scored the highest (3.73), whereas discourse coherence scored the lowest (3.43). The TPACK-based hybrid immersion model successfully replicates an authentic, inclusive, and adaptive language ecosystem without sacrificing boarding characteristics. Teachers' TPACK integration reflects technological pedagogical reasoning that positions digital tools purely to strengthen language concept representations and expand oral practice. Massive immersion conditioning effectively eliminates basic communication failures, elevating students to a superior level (Al-Tamayyuz). Future strategic implications require restructuring critical-argumentative discourse content and digitalizing periodic assessment systems to bridge the coherence gap toward the highest level, Al- Fasahah.492.707 6 Bahasa Arab - Metode Belajar2026-08-21UIN SUNAN KALIJAGA YOGYAKARTA;FAKULTAS ILMU TARBIYAH DAN KEGURUANThesis
