<![CDATA[This study aims to compare the effectiveness of learning Islamic Religious Education (PAI) through two different approaches at SMPN 2 West Karawang. The method used was quantitative with a quasi-experimental design. The research subjects consisted of two classes: a control class that received learning through the traditional lecture method, and an experimental class that used technological media such as PowerPoint. The learning process was conducted in four meetings, with pre-test and post-test to measure the improvement of learning outcomes. The results showed that the average N-Gain value in the control class was 0.69 (medium category), while the experimental class was 0.10 (low category). This finding shows that in the context of this study, the traditional approach gave better results than the use of technological media. However, this does not mean that technology is less useful, but rather indicates the importance of student readiness, media suitability with learner characteristics, and appropriate implementation strategies. This research contributes to the development of PAI learning methods that are more contextual, adaptive, and based on evaluation of real needs in the classroom.]]>
