Abstract

This study aims to explore and analyze the values ​​of the integration of Islamic Religious Education (PAI) with science in learning in Senior High Schools (SMA) in the Riau Islands. In the era of globalization and rapid technological advances, it is important for education to integrate religious knowledge and science in order to create students who are not only intellectually intelligent but also have strong characters. The research approach used is qualitative descriptive with a case study method involving in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation studies in several high schools in the Riau Islands. This study found that despite major challenges in terms of limited infrastructure, human resources, and access to technology, the integration of PAI and science can enrich students' understanding of the relationship between religion and science. By integrating science into Islamic teachings, students not only learn scientific knowledge but are also trained to think critically in the context of religion and morals. On the other hand, geographical challenges and limited facilities in the Riau Islands cause gaps in the implementation of this integration. Therefore, this study suggests the need for more adaptive learning strategies, improved teacher training, and the use of mobile technology to overcome these challenges. This research is expected to contribute to the development of a more inclusive and relevant education curriculum, especially in remote areas such as the Riau Islands.

Abstract

This study aims to identify and analyze the challenges faced by schools in the Riau Archipelago in implementing their vision and mission. School vision and mission are crucial guidelines in the educational process, as they reflect the goals and direction that the educational institution seeks to achieve. However, the challenges in their implementation often affect the effectiveness of achieving those goals. This study focuses on local factors that may influence the implementation of school vision and mission in the Riau Archipelago, such as limited resources, infrastructure issues, and cultural and social barriers in the archipelago region. The methodology used in this study is descriptive qualitative, with data collection techniques through in-depth interviews, field observations, and documentation studies. The results of the study indicate that, although the vision and mission of schools in the Riau Archipelago are clear and well-defined, the main challenges lie in the lack of adequate facilities and resources, as well as difficulties in reaching remote and isolated areas. Additionally, local cultural factors and public perceptions of education also affect effective implementation. This study suggests the need for improved access to educational resources, training for teachers and school principals, as well as the utilization of technology to overcome geographical and social barriers. Therefore, this study is expected to contribute to the improvement of the education system in the Riau Archipelago and other remote areas
