EFEKTIVITAS PEMBELAJARAN PENDIDIKAN AGAMA ISLAM DALAM MENUMBUHKAN KESADARAN KEAGAMAAN PESERTA DIDIK DI SEKOLAH DASAR KATOLIK TOMPONG KABUPATEN MANGGARAI TIMUR

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of Islamic Religious Education (IRE) learning in fostering students' religious awareness at SDK Tompong, East Manggarai Regency. The study employed a descriptive qualitative approach with a field research design. Data were collected through observations, interviews, and documentation involving the school principal, Islamic Religious Education teacher, and students. Data were analyzed through the processes of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing, while data trustworthiness was ensured through source, technique, and time triangulation. The findings indicate that Islamic Religious Education learning has been implemented effectively through classroom instruction, religious habituation, and teacher role modeling, which have contributed to the development of students' religious awareness as reflected in discipline, responsibility, politeness, and participation in religious activities. Nevertheless, the effectiveness of the learning process is constrained by limited facilities and infrastructure, insufficient instructional time, and varying levels of family support. The implications of this study suggest that strengthening religious habituation programs, enhancing teachers' role modeling, and fostering collaboration between schools and parents are essential strategies for improving students' religious awareness. This study contributes empirical evidence regarding the effectiveness of Islamic Religious Education in a multicultural primary school, particularly within a non-Islamic educational institution, and provides valuable insights for the development of Islamic Religious Education learning strategies and future research in this field.
