Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of game-based Joyful Learning in enhancing students’ motivation and learning activeness in Islamic Religious Education (PAI) at SMP Negeri 2 Sumber, Cirebon Regency. A quantitative approach with a descriptive-associative design was employed to measure the effect of Game-Based Learning on both dependent variables. The research sample consisted of 76 ninth-grade students selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using questionnaires, observations, and open interviews, and analyzed using MANOVA with SPSS version 25.0. The results revealed that game-based Joyful Learning had a significant and strong effect on students’ learning motivation (η² = 0.730) and activeness (η² = 0.754). Multivariate analysis further confirmed a simultaneous significant effect (Sig. = 0.000) between both variables. The approach successfully fostered an interactive, enjoyable, and meaningful learning environment, encouraging students’ cognitive, affective, and social engagement. This study concludes that game-based Joyful Learning is an effective strategy to enhance the quality of Islamic Religious Education in the digital era.

Abstract

The transformation of Indonesian pesantren in the era of globalization presents a complex challenge between preserving tradition and embracing modernity. This study aims to explore the paradoxical dynamics between maintaining pesantren’s traditional values and the demands of Islamic educational modernization. A qualitative descriptive approach through library research was employed, utilizing academic journals, books, and official documents published between 2015 and 2024. Content analysis was conducted on theories of educational modernization, pesantren cultural identity, and institutional responses to global change. The findings reveal that pesantren are actively transforming through curriculum integration, technology adoption, and institutional management development, while preserving religious traditions and the authority of kyai. The paradox of tradition and modernity emerges not as a barrier but as a unique strength in shaping globally relevant yet locally rooted Islamic education.

Abstract

Character education is a fundamental aspect of the Islamic education system that aims to shape a holistic human being, not only in terms of intellect but also moral and spiritual dimensions. In the context of the current moral crisis affecting today’s youth, the thoughts of classical scholars such as Imam Al-Ghazali have become essential references to revitalize educational values. This study aims to examine the concept of character education in the thought of Imam Al-Ghazali and analyze its relevance to the modern Islamic education system. This research is qualitative in nature using a library research approach. The population includes all of Al-Ghazali’s writings related to education and ethics. The primary sample analyzed in depth is his monumental work Ihya’ ‘Ulum al-Din, which contains Al-Ghazali’s conceptual framework on soul purification (tazkiyat al-nafs), character development, and methods of value internalization. The instruments used are documentation techniques, data reduction, concept categorization, and content analysis of primary and secondary texts. The results show that Al-Ghazali viewed character education as a process of perfecting the soul through the instillation of faith, controlling desires, and habituating virtuous conduct through exemplary modeling and self-reflection (muhasabah). This concept remains relevant in addressing the challenges of modern Islamic education, particularly in forming well-rounded, ethical, and spiritually grounded students. This study recommends integrating Al-Ghazali’s values of character education into the curriculum and educational practices of contemporary Islamic institutions.
