This study aims to reveal the problems of student concentration in Islamic Cultural History (SKI) lessons at MTs Nurul Iman Tanjung Morawa and explore the causes and strategies teachers use to overcome them. Using a descriptive qualitative approach with observation, interviews, and documentation methods, this study found that low student concentration is influenced by a combination of internal and external factors. Internal factors include low motivation, varying cognitive readiness, and unstable emotional conditions, while external factors include monotonous learning methods, limited learning media, and distractions from the environment and the use of gadgets. The manifestation of these problems can be seen through students' passive behavior, boredom, and difficulty in understanding and remembering the subject matter. Teachers play an active role in overcoming this through the application of varied learning methods, the use of visual media, the provision of motivation, and the creation of an interactive and enjoyable learning atmosphere. The results of this study confirm that improving student concentration requires synergy between teachers, the school environment, and family support in order to create meaningful and effective SKI learning.
