Penggunaan Metode Role-Playing dalam Mengajarkan Kisah Nabi dan Rasul di SD Negeri 17 Kampung Baru

Abstract

This study aims to explore the effectiveness of the Role-Playing method in teaching 
the stories of the Prophets and Messengers at SD Negeri 17 Kampung Baru, using 
the Classroom Action Research (PTK) model. The stories of the Prophets and 
Messengers hold significant value in Islamic education as they provide moral 
lessons and guidance for students. However, traditional teaching methods often fail 
to engage students effectively. The Role-Playing method is an interactive learning 
approach that allows students to actively participate in dramatizing the events and 
lessons from these stories. By employing PTK, this study seeks to identify whether 
this method improves student engagement, understanding, and retention of the 
material. The research involves a cycle of planning, action, observation, and 
reflection, followed by subsequent adjustments to improve learning outcomes. Data 
is collected through observations, student interviews, and pre- and post-tests. Initial 
findings suggest that the Role-Playing method helps students better understand and 
internalize the lessons from the Prophets’ stories, making them more relatable and 
memorable. This approach also enhances students’ critical thinking, empathy, and 
communication skills. The study concludes that Role-Playing is an effective method 
for teaching religious stories and can be a valuable tool for enhancing the learning 
experience in Islamic education.
