Penerapan Pendekatan Storytelling Digital untuk Meningkatkan Pemahaman Nilai-nilai Islam pada Siswa di UPT SD Negeri 13 Kubang

Abstract

This Classroom Action Research (CAR) aims to improve students' 
understanding of Islamic values through the application of a digital 
storytelling approach in Islamic Religious Education (PAI) at UPT SD 
Negeri 13 Kubang. The research was conducted over two cycles, each 
consisting of planning, action, observation, and reflection. Digital 
storytelling, which combines narrative elements with multimedia resources 
such as images, audio, and video, was implemented to make the learning of 
Islamic teachings more engaging and relatable for students. The study 
involved 30 students from Grade 5, who participated in digital storytelling
based lessons. Data were collected through classroom observations, student 
surveys, and performance assessments. The findings revealed a significant 
increase in student engagement, as they became more interested in the 
subject and actively participated in class discussions. Additionally, students 
demonstrated a deeper understanding of Islamic values, such as kindness, 
honesty, and respect. This research suggests that the integration of digital 
storytelling into PAI can be an effective method to make learning more 
interactive and meaningful. It emphasizes the importance of using 
innovative approaches to bridge the gap between traditional teaching 
methods and students' interests in the digital era.
