Meningkatkan Hasil Belajar Agama Islam Melalui Metode Problem-Based Learning SDN 107424 Sukaberas

Abstract

The primary objective of this study is to optimize the learning process in the subject of Islamic Religious Education (PAI) for Grade IV students at SD Negeri No. 107424 Suka Beras by implementing the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) method. This method was applied to enhance the overall quality of learning, including cognitive understanding, strengthening affective aspects, and developing students' psychomotor skills. Based on the research conducted through two cycles of Classroom Action Research (CAR), a significant improvement in student achievement was observed, with the average score increasing from 62.40 in the initial condition to 87.18 after the implementation of PBL. Moreover, the application of the PBL method successfully encouraged students to become more active in the learning process, more critical in analyzing problems, and more creative in finding relevant solutions, particularly in understanding and applying religious values in daily life. These findings indicate that the PBL method is an effective learning approach to improving the quality of PAI instruction. It not only positively impacts students' academic achievements but also contributes to shaping students' religious, critical, and creative character, thereby better preparing them to face real-world challenges.
