IMPLEMENTASI PENDEKATAN SAINTIFIK DALAM PEMBELAJARAN PAI BERBASIS KURIKULUM MERDEKA

Abstract

ABSTRACT

The implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum in Islamic Religious Education (PAI) requires adaptive learning practices that encourage active student engagement, including through the scientific approach. This study aimed to describe the implementation of observing and questioning, collecting information and reasoning, and communicating activities in PAI learning based on the Merdeka Curriculum. This qualitative study employed an analytical descriptive design at SDN Sumberpandan 02 Grujugan, Bondowoso. Data were collected through observations, interviews with a PAI teacher, and documentation, and were analyzed through data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results showed that observing and questioning activities were conducted using printed images and the surrounding socio-religious environment as learning stimuli. Collecting information and reasoning activities involved group work, printed learning resources, habituation activities such as Asmaul Husna, Surah Yasin, and congregational prayer, as well as scaffolding and peer tutoring. Communicating activities were carried out through mind mapping, infographics, and role-playing, followed by teacher clarification and reinforcement. The findings indicate that the scientific approach can be adapted contextually to school conditions and students’ learning needs.
