Abstract

The purpose of this article is to identify the problems associated with the application of educational media in madrasahs. The article aims to improve the quality of learning media implementation to enhance students' understanding and effectively achieve their learning abilities. Using a literature review method, data and sources related to the topic were collected from national journals and relevant discussions. The findings reveal that major problems include the lack of creativity among teachers in creating or developing their own teaching aids and learning media, as well as the low interest of students in the commonly used learning media. Additionally, many educational institutions face issues with suboptimal learning media, such as insufficient quantity and components, poor quality, and limited accessibility. This study contributes to the improvement of educational practices by offering insights that can guide the development of more effective and engaging learning media in madrasahs, ultimately enhancing the overall quality of education and student learning outcomes. To address these issues, it is recommended that madrasahs invest in professional development for teachers to enhance their skills in creating innovative and effective learning media, increase funding to improve the quality and accessibility of educational resources, and actively involve students in the selection and development of learning media to ensure it meets their interests and needs.

Abstract

A conducive learning situation is related to the quality of student learning. The creation of a conducive class will prevent students from feeling bored, physical fatigue and also the creation of a conducive class will provide motivation and comfort for students' learning. Learning space is the place where the teaching and learning process takes place, the place in question can be indoors, outdoors, or virtual space. Learning space is a facility that creates a learning atmosphere and supports the creation of an innovative learning ecosystem. There are four ideas that form the basis for developing future learning spaces, namely: learning by doing, context-based, interaction, and learning locations. To realize this design, a space-technology-cognitive concept was designed that combines aspects of knowledge, aspects of space or the learning environment and the use of technology as one of the smart learning designs in the future. Utilization of learning space as a learning resource center can be carried out by referring to five functions, namely: the function of developing instructional systems; learning media service function; learning media development function; training function and administrative function.

Abstract

This study discusses the use of presentation media in teaching Aqidah Akhlak in improving student learning outcomes. The method applied is the RnD (Research and Development) research method which uses experimental research with a quantitative approach. This series of research was then carried out with the development of ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation) research which involved one class group, namely Class XI students at MA Al Qasimiyah Madello, Barru Regency. The ADDIE development pattern is implemented in detail, including through analyzing learning materials, designing the presentation of the material to make it interesting, developing the material by paying attention to student needs, implementing it effectively in the classroom, and then carrying out in-depth analysis of student learning outcomes after the entire series of research has been carried out.This research suggests that the use of presentation media in learning Aqidah Akhlak through the development of ADDIE is able to provide good learning outcomes for students. This is evidenced by the increase in scores which increased significantly from the pre-test stage to the post-test stage. The learning results at the pre-test stage found 15 students with very low scores, 1 person in the low category, and 2 people in the medium category. Which means that no one whose score is above the KKM standard is declared incomplete. This condition changed significantly at the post-test stage so that as many as 17 students were in the high category and there was even 1 person whose learning results were in the very high category. Thus, it can be concluded that the effectiveness of the combination of ADDIE development with the application of presentation media is very effective in improving student learning outcomes in Aqidah Akhlak learning so that it can become an innovation in Islamic Religious Education learning to make it more enjoyable.

Despite the challenges, progress in religious and moral values remains significant.3) Obstacles in instilling religious character in students at the DDI Galla Raya Islamic Boarding School include differences in backgrounds that cause variations in material understanding, mental health problems such as stress, and the negative influence of the dormitory environment exposed to modern technology.
