Abstract

The educational goals listed above have not been optimally achieved. Schools in Indonesia generally tend to train students in terms of receiving knowledge, memory, and reasoning or logical thinking so that little portion is given to train creative thinking skills. This research is development research that develops learning tools including lesson plans, worksheets, student textbooks, and assessment instruments. This research consists of two stages of implementation, namely the stage of developing learning tools and the stage of testing the devices that have been developed. Science learning tools based on the 5E Learning Cycle to train creative thinking skills that have been developed are declared valid and can be used in science learning activities in elementary schools.

Abstract

Aqidah Akhlak education is fundamental to character formation in students attending Islamic elementary schools. While character education has been widely studied, there is limited research examining the specific impact of Aqidah Akhlak education on students' moral development in Central Java, Indonesia. This qualitative study employed a case study approach to explore the role of Aqidah Akhlak education in shaping student character. Data were collected through direct observations and semi-structured interviews involving 16 teachers, 150 students, and 50 parents across Islamic elementary schools in the Cilacap, Banjarnegara, Banyumas, and Purbalingga regencies. The data were analyzed using the Miles and Huberman interactive model, which includes data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. Findings reveal that Aqidah Akhlak education contributes significantly to students' moral and social character, fostering traits such as honesty, discipline, and mutual respect. Additionally, the active involvement of parents and the surrounding community enhances the effectiveness of moral instruction in schools. The results suggest that Aqidah Akhlak instruction goes beyond religious doctrine, promoting a comprehensive moral framework for young learners. Collaborative efforts between educators, parents, and communities amplify its impact. Aqidah Akhlak education serves as a powerful strategy for character development in Islamic elementary schools. Future efforts should focus on curriculum integration and innovative pedagogical approaches to moral education at an early age.
