Development of Demonstration Methods in PAI Teaching to Improve Understanding of Material Through Mastery of Arabic

Abstract

This research develops a demonstration method in teaching Islamic Religious Education (PAI) by integrating Arabic language mastery, using the ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation) model. The aim of the research is to increase understanding of PAI material through an approach that utilizes Arabic in explaining PAI concepts. The analysis stage identified the main problem, namely students' difficulties in understanding PAI material presented in Arabic. At the design stage, a demonstration method is designed which includes relevant teaching materials and visual aids. The development stage involves creating a prototype of the method and initial trials showing that the method can improve student understanding. In the implementation stage, the method is applied in classes with larger groups of students. Observations and data from the pre-test and post-test show an increase in understanding of PAI material by 20%. The results of questionnaires and interviews with students and teachers revealed that 85% of students felt this method improved their understanding of PAI material and increased their involvement in learning. The evaluation shows that the demonstration method that integrates Arabic is effective in improving the quality of PAI learning. This research concludes that this method can be widely applied to improve material understanding and student involvement in PAI teaching. Recommendations are provided for further development to optimize learning outcomes
