Abstract

This research aims to explore and develop interactive and relevant Islamic religious learning methods for Generation Z in the digital era. Generation Z has unique characteristics, such as a high tendency towards technology, a practical and visual learning style, and the need to get information instantly. Given these needs, conventional learning approaches are considered less effective in attracting their interest in exploring Islam. This study uses a qualitative research method with data collection techniques through in-depth interviews, observations, and literature studies related to digital learning methods and religious teaching. Participants in this study include students, Islamic teachers, and experts in the field of digital education. The results of the study show that technology-based interactive methods, such as learning apps, educational short videos, interactive quizzes, and discussions on social media platforms, can increase the interest and engagement of Generation Z in learning Islam. The use of digital media not only makes the learning process more interesting but also helps students understand religious concepts in a more applicable and relevant way to daily life. In addition, the application of gamification, augmented reality (AR), and virtual reality (VR) in Islamic religious learning shows great potential to enhance immersive and contextual learning experiences. The implications of this study are the need for the integration of digital technology in the Islamic religious learning curriculum, as well as training for educators so that they can use interactive methods effectively. The novelty of this study lies in a holistic approach that combines digital interactive methods with religious learning, which has not been widely applied in the context of Islamic education. This research is expected to be a reference for educators and curriculum developers in creating Islamic religious learning strategies that are more adaptive, interactive, and able to answer the unique needs and characteristics of Generation Z.

Abstract

This research investigates the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into the implementation of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) to enhance the effectiveness of maritime dispute resolution, particularly in the South China Sea—a region marked by overlapping territorial claims and geopolitical tensions. The objective of this study is to explore how AI technologies can support legal mechanisms under UNCLOS in resolving disputes more efficiently, transparently, and equitably. Using a normative legal research method with a conceptual and statutory approach, this study examines existing legal frameworks, analyzes the potential of AI-based tools such as machine learning, big data analytics, and automated decision-making systems, and evaluates their relevance in UNCLOS enforcement and dispute resolution mechanisms. The findings indicate that AI can play a transformative role in various aspects: real-time maritime monitoring, evidence verification, predictive modeling of potential conflicts, and assisting international tribunals in the interpretation and application of UNCLOS provisions. Furthermore, AI can facilitate trust-building among stakeholders by ensuring transparent data processing and minimizing human bias. The study concludes that while the integration of AI into UNCLOS implementation poses regulatory, ethical, and technical challenges, it also presents a timely and innovative opportunity to modernize international maritime governance. As an academic contribution, this research offers a forward-looking framework for the digital transformation of international legal instruments and encourages interdisciplinary dialogue between law, technology, and policy in addressing complex maritime disputes such as those in the South China Sea. Keywords: UNCLOS 1982, international maritime law, maritime governance, dispute resolution, maritime law reform.
