Abstract

General Background: Education is central in preparing future generations with competitive competencies. Specific Background: In Islamic institutions, madrasahs play a crucial role in shaping both academic and non-academic excellence, including through extracurricular activities. Knowledge Gap: Prior research has rarely focused on strategic leadership in extracurricular program development, especially in Sumatera Utara’s Islamic schools. Aims: This study aims to explore the strategies implemented by the head of MTs Al-Wasliyah 16 Perbaungan in enhancing student achievement through extracurricular engagement. Results: Through qualitative descriptive methods, results show that structured strategies—vision-based planning, program selection, mentor empowerment, and periodic evaluation—led to an 85% achievement rate, with national-level success in tahfiz and tilawah. Novelty: This is the first study in the region that comprehensively links Islamic leadership principles to extracurricular program outcomes in a madrasah. Implications: The findings offer a strategic model for madrasah leaders to systematically develop student potential beyond the academic curriculum and promote replicable educational leadership practices. Highlights: The madrasa head strategically plans and develops 17 types of extracurricular activities to enhance student performance. Tahfiz Qur’an and Tilawah are the most consistently awarded activities, reaching national-level competitions. Challenges include limited student motivation and inadequate facilities, which are addressed through partnerships and delegation. Keywords: Madrasah Strategy, Student Achievement, Extracurricular Activities, Educational Leadership

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the implementation of digitalization in Islamic Religious Education (PAI) learning at SMA Muhammadiyah 9 Brondong within the context of educational transformation in the era of the Industrial Revolution 4.0 and the post-pandemic period. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and document analysis. The findings indicate that the school has adopted various digital platforms and online learning applications to support PAI instruction. The main challenges include limited infrastructure, low digital literacy among teachers and students, and unequal internet access. A distinctive finding of this study is the integration of Islamic values into digital media, which not only enhances religious understanding but also contributes to character formation in virtual learning environments. The theoretical contribution of this research lies in mapping a model of PAI digital learning that incorporates local wisdom and spiritual values within the framework of educational technology. Furthermore, the results show that digitalization significantly enhances learning effectiveness and student engagement. The study recommends strengthening digital infrastructure, providing continuous training for educators, and developing an adaptive and contextual digital-based PAI curriculum as a long-term development strategy. Highlights: Integration of Islamic values into digital learning. Addressing infrastructure and digital literacy gaps. Enhancing engagement through technology-based PAI learning. Keywords: Digitalization, Islamic Religious Education, Online Learning, Teacher Training, Student Engagement

Abstract

General Background: The dichotomy between religious and modern sciences, rooted in colonial legacies, has long shaped fragmented educational paradigms within the Muslim world. Specific Background: This separation has produced graduates with compartmentalized competencies, limiting the holistic development of knowledge within Islamic education. Knowledge Gap: While various scholars have proposed frameworks to integrate Islam and science, comparative analyses of their epistemological foundations remain limited. Aims: This study aims to analyze and compare the concepts of Islamic-scientific integration proposed by Ismail Raji al-Faruqi, Syed Muhammad Naquib al-Attas, and M. Amin Abdullah. Results: Through a library research method and content analysis, the study reveals that al-Faruqi emphasizes the Islamization of knowledge based on tawhid, al-Attas promotes the purification of knowledge through adab, and M. Amin Abdullah advances an integration-interconnection model addressing contemporary challenges. Novelty: This study provides a comparative synthesis that clarifies the theoretical trajectories and philosophical underpinnings of each approach. Implications: The findings contribute to developing a more holistic and integrative framework for Islamic higher education, fostering the unification of faith and reason toward comprehensive human development within the Islamic worldview. Highlights: Highlights comparative insights from Al-Faruqi, Al-Attas, and M. Amin Abdullah. Emphasizes holistic integration of Islamic and modern sciences. Offers a transformative framework for Islamic higher education. Keywords: Islamization of Knowledge, Integration of Science and Religion, Interconnected Paradigm

Abstract

This study aims to determine the application of formative assessment to the creed and morals material, referring to Bloom's Taxonomy theory. This study uses a descriptive qualitative research method with data collection thru observation, interviews, field research, and literature review or online studies that support the research. The data analysis method was conducted using a descriptive analytical method thru data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. Specifically, although a number of previous studies have used essay-type questions, no study has been found that explicitly examines or develops question formats that incorporate images, such as visual matching questions. This indicates a research gap that is the main focus of this study. The research results indicate that the implementation of formative assessment in Akidah Akhlak learning materials using innovative methods or media and based on Bloom's Taxonomy theory is able to attract students' interest in maximizing the measurement of Akidah Akhlak learning outcomes. This allows for optimal and comprehensive assessment of students' learning outcomes across all aspects, as evidenced by the positive response from students after the trial implementation of innovative formative assessment forms based on Bloom's Taxonomy theory. The trial implementation of formative assessment using essay questions and image matching faced several obstacles, including time constraints, some students still showing a lack of focus by chatting, and the discovery of one student who did not yet have adequate reading skills.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the implementation of strengthening Al-Qur'an literacy through a program designed by Islamic Religious Education teachers in collaboration with the school's Rohis organization. The study focuses on two main activities: the literacy or tadarus Al-Qur'an program held for 15 minutes before lessons begin, and the BTA (Baca Tulis Al-Qur'an) program intended for students who still experience difficulties in reading the Al-Qur'an. Using a qualitative method with data collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, the findings show that students demonstrate high enthusiasm in participating in the program, although challenges remain in maintaining discipline and activity consistency. Through motivation, guidance, and strong collaboration between teachers and Rohis members, the Al-Qur'an literacy strengthening program can be implemented effectively and sustainably. This study is expected to contribute to efforts in maintaining and improving Al-Qur'an literacy programs in schools.
