The integration of PowerPoint as an innovative tool has significantly transformed Islamic Religious Education (IRE) learning. Teachers can capture students’ attention by presenting content in a more visual and interactive manner, incorporating text, images, animations, and live quizzes. This makes IRE material more engaging, efficient, and time-saving. The purpose of this study is to explore and analyze the benefits of utilizing innovative media in teaching IRE, with a particular focus on PowerPoint as the primary medium. Conducted through a qualitative field study at UPTD SD Negeri 3 Makmur, Bireuen, the research investigates how PowerPoint enhances the teaching and learning process, from fostering student motivation to improving comprehension. Findings reveal that PowerPoint-based innovation produced positive and responsive outcomes among sixth-grade students. While previous lessons often felt abstract due to lengthy verbal explanations, the integration of videos and visuals made concepts more concrete, accessible, and effective for learners.
