<![CDATA[This study is motivated by the continued dominance of conventional teaching methods in Islamic Religious Education (PAI), which tends to make students passive, less motivated, and easily bored during the learning process. Therefore, innovative, interactive, and engaging learning media are needed. This study aims to develop PowerPoint-based learning media integrated with interactive quizzes and gamification, as well as to examine its effectiveness in improving students’ interest, engagement, and learning outcomes at Dayah Darul Ulum Al-Munawarah. This research employs a Research and Development (R&D) method using the ADDIE model, which consists of analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation stages. The approach used is mixed methods, with data collection techniques including observation, interviews, questionnaires, documentation, and learning outcome tests. The research subjects consist of PAI teachers and students involved in the learning process. The results indicate that the developed learning media falls into the feasible category after undergoing expert validation. The implementation of the media has a positive impact on learning, with 85% of students stating that learning becomes more interesting and 80% feeling more motivated due to the gamification elements. Student participation increased from 45% to 88%, while the average learning outcome score rose from 68 in the pretest to 82 in the posttest. Learning also became more interactive, participatory, and student-centered. It can be concluded that PowerPoint media integrated with interactive quizzes and gamification is effective in improving the quality of PAI learning in terms of student interest, engagement, and learning outcomes. This media is suitable as an alternative innovation in PAI learning and can be further developed in other educational contexts.]]>
