Abstract

This research examines the Islamic Religious Education (PAI) learning assessment paradigm in the Education Unit Level Curriculum (KTSP) and the Merdeka Curriculum at the Junior High School (SMP) level. The main purpose of this assessment is to measure the achievement of learning objectives, assess the effectiveness of teaching, and evaluate the suitability between the learning approach and the curriculum used. The move from the KTSP Curriculum to the Independent Curriculum often creates challenges, especially for schools that have not yet gone through the 2013 Curriculum (K-13). The KTSP curriculum uses traditional assessment methods such as written exams and formative tests, while the Merdeka Curriculum emphasizes a holistic approach that includes cognitive, affective, and psychomotor aspects. This research identified three main aspects that were evaluated: achievement of learning objectives, teaching effectiveness, and suitability of learning approaches to the curriculum. The assessment instruments used include written tests, class observations, questionnaires, and student portfolios. The assessment stages include planning, implementation, data analysis, decision making, feedback, follow-up, and ongoing monitoring and evaluation. Through a comprehensive and continuous assessment approach, it is hoped that the quality of PAI learning in junior high schools can be improved in line with the demands of the times and students' needs.

Abstract

This research is motivated by deficiencies in the science learning process. It is known that the dominant teaching method used is lecture, which minimally involves students in active learning. As a result, students are not given extensive opportunities to independently find solutions to problems or understand the concepts presented. This research aims to determine the impact of implementing Problem Based Learning (PBL) assisted by teaching aids on the science learning outcomes of class IV students. This research method uses a Quasi-Experimental design, specifically using a posttest-only control design. The experiment was carried out by comparing the posttest results of students who experienced the PBL model with those who did not. The research results through data analysis using the t test produced a t value of 2.52 and a t table value of 1.682. This shows that the null hypothesis (H0) is rejected and the alternative hypothesis (H1) is accepted. Therefore, it can be concluded that there is a significant influence of the use of the PBL model assisted by teaching aids on the science learning outcomes of class IV students at SDN 21 Lubuk Lintah, Padang City.
