Penerapan Teknik Berkelompok dalam Meningkatkan Keterampilan Diskusi tentang Nilai-Nilai Islam pada Siswa di SDN 13 Tanjung Sani

Abstract

This Classroom Action Research (CAR) aims to apply group-based 
techniques to enhance students' discussion skills regarding Islamic values 
at SDN 13 Tanjung Sani. The study was conducted over two cycles, each 
consisting of planning, action, observation, and reflection. The research 
involved 5th-grade students and focused on improving their ability to 
engage in meaningful discussions about Islamic values, such as honesty, 
kindness, and responsibility. Data were collected through classroom 
observations, student reflections, and teacher evaluations. The results 
showed that group-based techniques effectively fostered active 
participation among students. By working in groups, students had the 
opportunity to share ideas, ask questions, and listen to different 
perspectives, which led to an increase in their ability to discuss Islamic 
values in depth. Additionally, the collaborative environment enhanced 
students' communication skills and promoted a deeper understanding of the 
material. The findings suggest that group discussions are an effective 
strategy for developing students' critical thinking and communication 
abilities, especially in the context of religious education. Teachers are 
encouraged to implement this method to encourage more interactive and 
engaging learning experiences in Islamic education.
