<![CDATA[Animated video learning media has emerged as an innovative instructional approach to improve student engagement and learning outcomes in Islamic Religious Education (IRE), yet empirical evidence at the elementary school level remains limited. This study investigates the effect of animated video learning media on students’ learning outcomes in IRE. A quantitative experimental method employing a post-test-only control group design was adopted. The population consisted of 299 elementary students, from which two Grade V classes were selected using cluster random sampling. The experimental group received instruction using animated video media, whereas the control group was taught using PowerPoint presentations. Learning outcomes were measured through a post-test, and the data were analyzed using an independent-samples t-test in SPSS 25. The findings revealed a statistically significant difference between the two groups (t = 2.461, p = 0.018 < 0.05), indicating that students exposed to animated video learning media achieved higher learning outcomes than those receiving conventional PowerPoint-based instruction. These findings demonstrate the effectiveness of animated video as an engaging instructional medium for improving learning achievement in Islamic Religious Education. The study contributes empirical evidence supporting the integration of multimedia-based instruction in elementary education and provides practical implications for teachers seeking innovative learning strategies to enhance students' academic performance.]]>
