Abstract

Qur'anic memorization has become a central component of Islamic education in many elementary schools across Muslim-majority countries; However, its implementation still faces pedagogical and institutional challenges that hinder its effectiveness. This study aims to address this gap by systematically identifying and synthesizing research on the challenges and solutions in Qur'anic memorization learning at the elementary school level. Employing a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) based on PRISMA guidelines, literature was retrieved from Scopus, covering publications between 2015 and 2025, with fourteen studies meeting the inclusion criteria. The findings reveal four main categories of challenges: (1) student-related factors (cognitive limitations, psychological fatigue, motivation issues), (2) teacher-related factors (limited pedagogical skills, lack of standardization), (3) curriculum and time management issues (balancing memorization with general education), and (4) institutional barriers (limited resources, weak monitoring, and policy gaps). The discussion emphasizes that effective solutions require pedagogical innovation, technology integration, teacher professional development, and stronger collaboration among schools, parents, and policymakers. These findings provide valuable implications for educators and curriculum developers in designing holistic and sustainable Qur'anic memorization programs for young learners.

Abstract

This study responds to the growing challenges of violence, hierarchical abuse, gender-based discrimination, and radicalism in pesantren, which underscore the need for alternative educational frameworks grounded in compassion, inclusivity, and justice. It examines the Love-Based Curriculum as a conceptual and practical approach to strengthening Islamic boarding school education in Indonesia. Using a descriptive qualitative library research method, the study analyzes a wide range of academic and policy literature, including classical Islamic thought, national educational philosophy, and contemporary perspectives, to explore how love-based values can prevent violence and reinforce religious moderation. The core novelty of this research lies in its synthesis of three key perspectives Al-Ghazali’s ethical pedagogy, Ki Hajar Dewantara’s humanistic educational philosophy, and Abdurrahman Wahid’s (Gus Dur’s) peace-oriented thought into an integrated framework of the Love-Based Curriculum. The findings indicate that compassion, inclusivity, and justice function as foundational principles for addressing hierarchical abuse, gender-based violence, radicalism, and intolerance in pesantren. Overall, the study highlights the Love-Based Curriculum as a preventive and transformative model that supports child-friendly education and promotes religious moderation amid the spread of exclusivist narratives in the digital era. It recommends institutional support from pesantren leaders and policymakers, as well as further research on practical models of implementation across diverse educational contexts.

This research aims to determine whether there is an influence of active learning strategies on students’ motivation and learning outcomes. This quantitative research used a survey approach and a comparative causal design. The population were students in grade VIII at SMPN 2 Samarinda, SMPN 9 Samarinda, SMPN 7 Samarinda, and SMPN 14 Samarinda. This research used purposive sampling. The data collection techniques are a questionnaire and documentation, while the data analysis technique is a MANOVA test. The research results show that there is an influence of Active Learning strategies on the motivation and learning outcomes of Islamic Religious Education in Samarinda Middle School. The hypothesis is accepted by using Hotelling's Trace analysis with a strong influence.

Abstract

This research aims to formulate a conceptual framework for the development of Islamic education teaching materials based on scientific integration in the context of non-formal Islamic education (majelis taklim). The research uses a qualitative approach through literature studies as the main data source, complemented by limited non-participatory observations as contextual supporting data. The data were analyzed descriptive-analytically through thematic categorization and conceptual synthesis. Literature synthesis shows that scientific integration has implications for strengthening conceptual understanding as well as opportunities for developing students' reflective and critical thinking skills. The research output is in the form of integrative teaching material design principles which include relevance, comprehensiveness, integrability, contextuality, and applicability. Integration is positioned as a reconstruction of the relationship between revelation, reason, and reality that enriches the understanding of Islam and strengthens the internalization of Islamic values in modern life. This conceptual framework is expected to be a reference for educators and curriculum developers in designing contextual and integrative Islamic education teaching materials.

Abstract

This study investigates the need for a contextual learning model to instill religious moderation values in early childhood education. It aims to explore existing practices, identify gaps, and propose recommendations for developing an integrated instructional framework. Employing a qualitative case study approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews, classroom observations, and documentation at RA Pesantren Ilmu Al-Qur’an, East Kutai, Indonesia. The data were analyzed using Miles and Huberman’s interactive model, focusing on data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The study reveals that values of religious moderation, such as tolerance, inclusivity, and non-violence, are informally practiced through storytelling, modeling, and daily school routines. However, these values are not explicitly incorporated into formal curriculum documents, learning modules, or assessment systems. Teachers expressed a strong need for structured teaching resources, professional development, and assessment instruments aligned with the Merdeka Curriculum to support the systematic development of moderate character in children. The findings underscore the importance of developing a comprehensive, culturally relevant learning model for religious moderation that integrates curriculum design, teacher training, and learning media. Such a model should guide early childhood educators in nurturing tolerance and pluralism from a young age.
