PENGARUH METODE PAIKEM DENGAN PEND EKATAN ROLE PLAY TERHADAP HASIL BELAJAR SISWA PADA MATA PELAJARAN PENDIDIKAN AGAMA ISLAM

Abstract

This study aims to identify the impact of the PAIKEM learning method (Active, Innovative, Creative, Effective, and Fun Learning) through role-play techniques on student learning outcomes in Islamic Religious Education (PAI) for Grade VIII students at SMP Negeri 12 Cilegon. The research method used is a quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest control group design. The subjects consisted of two groups, namely the experimental group taught using the PAIKEM method (role-play/drama) and the control group taught using the lecture method. The research instrument was a learning achievement test analyzed using an independent t-test. The results showed a significant improvement in the experimental group, where the average post-test score was higher than that of the control group. The experimental group obtained a final score of 17.2, while the control group achieved 10.9, indicating a difference of 6.3 points in favor of the experimental group. The t-test result produced a t-value of 5.432, which is greater than the t-table value of 2.06865 at a significance level of 0.05. Therefore, the null hypothesis was rejected and the alternative hypothesis was accepted. These findings indicate that the PAIKEM method with a role-play approach has a significant effect on improving student learning outcomes in cognitive, affective, and psychomotor aspects. This study is expected to serve as a reference for educators in enhancing the quality of Islamic Religious Education learning by implementing innovative and interactive teaching methods.
