Abstract

General Background: Religious moderation constitutes a strategic priority in Islamic education, requiring pedagogical approaches that cultivate tolerant, balanced, and contextual religious understanding among students in pluralistic societies. Specific Background: At MTs Darul Hikmah Sidoarjo, deep learning has been implemented in Islamic Religious Education (PAI) to encourage reflective, dialogical, and contextual engagement with religious values. Knowledge Gap: Although deep learning is theoretically aligned with constructivist and meaningful learning principles, limited empirical description exists regarding its classroom implementation in madrasah settings and its relation to students’ religious moderation attitudes. Aims: This study aims to describe the implementation of deep learning and analyze its contribution to strengthening students’ religious moderation attitudes. Results: Using a qualitative case study design with observation, interviews, and documentation, the findings indicate that problem-based learning, group dialogue, religious reflection, and analytical assignments foster deeper conceptual understanding of moderation values, including tolerance, justice, balance, and respect for differences. The study also reports increased openness toward diverse opinions, stronger commitment to fairness in religious practice, and reduced narrow fanaticism. Novelty: This research provides an in-depth qualitative account linking deep learning strategies with the internalization of religious moderation attitudes in a madrasah context. Implications: The findings recommend sustained integration of deep learning in PAI instruction to cultivate critical thinking, reflective awareness, and moderate religious character among secondary-level students. Highlights: Reflective and problem-oriented instruction promotes tolerance and fairness in classroom religious discourse. Dialogical activities cultivate balanced perspectives and respect for socio-religious diversity. Analytical and contextual tasks reduce narrow fanatic tendencies among eighth-grade learners. Keywords: Deep Learning, Religious Moderation, Islamic Religious Education, Madrasah Education

Abstract

General Background: Creativity is a fundamental component of human intelligence and plays an essential role in elementary education, particularly in visual arts learning where students are encouraged to express ideas through drawing activities. Specific Background: In Al-Ishlah Elementary School, many fifth-grade students experienced difficulties in expressing ideas independently and tended to produce similar and basic drawings, indicating limited creative development. Knowledge Gap: Although the demonstration method has been widely discussed in educational contexts, limited classroom action research specifically examines its application in structured shape drawing activities to foster creativity in upper elementary students. Aims: This study aimed to determine whether the application of the shape-drawing demonstration method could increase the creativity of fifth-grade students at Al-Ishlah Elementary School. Results: Using a two-cycle classroom action research model based on Kurt Lewin, the findings showed a progressive increase in students’ creativity scores from 70.08 in the initial observation to 85.49 in Cycle I and 90.75 in Cycle II, indicating measurable improvement after reflective refinement of instructional practice. Novelty: The study highlights structured shape-based demonstration as a practical classroom strategy to reduce students’ hesitation and dependence on peers during drawing tasks. Implications: The findings suggest that carefully implemented demonstration techniques can support creative expression in visual arts education and provide practical guidance for elementary school teachers in designing structured art instruction. Keywords: Demonstration Method, Creativity, Classroom Action Research, Drawing Shapes, Elementary Education Key Findings Highlights Creativity scores increased consistently across two classroom action cycles. Reflective revision of instruction reduced students’ hesitation and imitation behavior. Structured visual modeling supported independent artistic expression.

Abstract

This study examines creativity development within elementary education contexts. General Background: Creativity constitutes a central component of character formation and learning processes in primary schools, particularly within arts-based instructional settings aligned with the Profil Pelajar Pancasila framework. Specific Background: Classroom observations revealed that students’ drawing activities often lacked originality and independent idea generation, indicating limited creative expression during project-based learning implementation. Knowledge Gap: Although prior studies discuss character education and creative learning models, limited empirical classroom-based research explicitly analyzes drawing activities as a structured medium for strengthening creative character within the P5 framework. Aims: This research aims to analyze how drawing-based project activities contribute to students’ creative character formation. Results: Findings indicate observable improvements in originality, participation, and student engagement during successive instructional cycles, reflected through qualitative observation and documented student work. Novelty: The study positions structured drawing practice as a concrete operationalization of creative character indicators within project-based curricular implementation. Implications: These findings provide practical pedagogical guidance for elementary educators in integrating structured artistic exploration into character education programs while maintaining alignment with national curriculum directives. Keywords: Creative Character, Drawing Activities, Elementary Education, Project Based Learning, Profil Pelajar Pancasila Key Findings Highlights Progressive originality growth observed across instructional cycles Increased active classroom participation during project implementation Documented improvement in student-generated visual concepts

Abstract

General Background: Character education in the Society 5.0 era requires the strengthening of social sensitivity to support harmonious social interaction among elementary students. Specific Background: Observations in Grade 5 Nyai Walidah at SD Plus Muhammadiyah Brawijaya indicated low levels of social sensitivity, reflected in limited cooperation, low empathy, weak emotional regulation, and minimal classroom interaction. Knowledge Gap: Although previous studies have applied Problem Based Learning in social studies contexts, limited classroom action research has specifically examined its structured implementation to address four aspects of social sensitivity: perspective-taking, empathy, emotional regulation, and theory of mind in primary education. Aims: This study aims to increase students’ social sensitivity through the implementation of the Problem Based Learning model in IPAS learning. Results: Using a Classroom Action Research design with two cycles, findings show an increase in social sensitivity levels from 66.8% in Cycle I to 96.5% in Cycle II, supported by observable improvements in cooperation, respect, emotional control, and responsiveness during group discussions. Novelty: The study integrates contextual social issues and structured monitoring outside the research cycle within the PBL framework to strengthen measurable social sensitivity indicators. Implications: The findings provide pedagogical guidance for elementary teachers in designing collaborative, problem-oriented IPAS instruction to foster social character development. Keywords: Social Sensitivity, Problem Based Learning, Character Education, Classroom Action Research, Elementary Students Key Findings Highlights Social awareness scores rose from 66.8% to 96.5% across cycles Stronger peer interaction observed during collaborative tasks Emotional control and empathy demonstrated in group discussions
