Abstract

This study aims to investigate the implementation of local wisdom values in Aqidah Akhlak learning at MTsN Babul Mujahidin, Bayan, North Lombok. Aqidah Akhlak learning plays an important role in shaping students’ religious and social character; however, it is often delivered in a general manner and is insufficiently adapted to students’ cultural backgrounds. This study employs a qualitative approach with a descriptive case study design. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and document analysis. The findings indicate that the integration of local wisdom values into Aqidah Akhlak learning contributes to improvements in students’ religious behavior and social attitudes. Students demonstrate higher discipline in performing congregational prayers, stronger awareness of mutual cooperation, and greater respect for teachers and peers. In addition, students from pesantren backgrounds exhibit more consistent religious practices compared to non-pesantren students. The implementation of local cultural practices, such as deliberation (musyawarah) and communal activities, helps students internalize moral values in a more contextual and meaningful way. This study concludes that integrating local wisdom into Islamic education can serve as an effective strategy for strengthening students’ character by connecting religious teachings with their socio-cultural environment

Abstract

Aqidah Akhlak learning in madrasahs often emphasizes memorization and teacher-centered instruction, limiting students’ opportunities to engage in analytical, evaluative, and creative moral reasoning. This study aimed to enhance students’ higher-order thinking skills through structured questioning techniques in Aqidah Akhlak learning. Using Classroom Action Research, the study was conducted in two cycles involving 26 eleventh-grade science students at an Islamic senior high school in Jambi, Indonesia. Each cycle consisted of planning, action, observation, and reflection. Data were collected through HOTS-based written tests, classroom observation sheets, teacher interviews, field notes, and documentation. The intervention used open-ended, probing, evaluative, and reflective questions supported by scaffolding, wait time, peer discussion, and constructive feedback. The findings showed a substantial improvement in students’ classroom participation and HOTS achievement. Active participation increased from 38.5% in Cycle I to 73.1% in Cycle II, while the mean HOTS score rose from 68.4 to 82.7. The proportion of students achieving the minimum mastery criterion also increased from 57.7% to 84.6%. Improvements were observed across analysis, evaluation, and creation dimensions. These findings indicate that structured questioning techniques can transform Aqidah Akhlak learning into a more dialogic, reflective, and inclusive process that supports students’ moral reasoning and higher-order thinking.

Abstract

Learning motivation is central to inclusive student support because it shapes whether learners attend to, participate in, and persist with classroom activity. This exploratory qualitative case study examines documented preliminary observations of Islamic Religious Education (IRE) instruction in Grade X E8 at an Indonesian public senior high school. The evidence concerns one IRE teacher and a class of 34 students. The analysis identifies a heterogeneous motivation profile: some students were attentive and participatory, whereas others were less focused, hesitant to respond, or minimally involved. Teacher practices comprised aperception, communication of learning objectives, motivational prompts, everyday-life examples, lectures, question-and-answer, and discussion. The findings are synthesized as a Motivational Alignment Cycle linking value framing, participation architecture, relational reinforcement, and responsive observation. The contribution is a context-sensitive framework that explains why method variation alone may not be sufficient unless students also perceive relevance, psychological safety, and attainable opportunities to contribute. The study informs teacher professional development and school-level psychosocial support in IRE and comparable value-oriented subjects. Because the source evidence is preliminary and does not include completed interviews, transcripts, or outcome measures, the article makes no causal or generalizable effectiveness claims.
