Implementation of Multimedia-Based Interactive Teaching Materials In Increasing Interest In Learning Pai

Abstract

Students often find religious lessons monotonous and unpleasant, which can reduce their desire to study the material in more depth. As a result, multimedia-based interactive teaching materials are considered the right answer to this problem. This research aims to determine the extent to which interactive multimedia teaching materials can arouse students' interest in studying PAI subjects. This research uses qualitative methods with case study methodology, with one class VIII totaling 30 students at MTs Miftahul Khair. Data was collected through observation, interviews with teachers and students, as well as document analysis regarding the teaching materials used. Data analysis was carried out thematically by reducing, presenting and drawing conclusions from the data collected. Research findings show that the use of multimedia-based interactive teaching materials increases various indicators of students' learning interest. Students' active participation in class grew from 40% to 75%, students' attention during learning increased from 45% to 80%, and students' involvement in class discussions and learning outcomes also increased drastically. Even though obstacles are found in the form of limited access to technology, the findings of this research show that the benefits of multimedia outweigh the challenges. This study found that multimedia-based teaching materials can be an effective way to increase students' enthusiasm in learning PAI subjects. Researchers recommend that schools provide enough technology infrastructure and teacher training to maximize the use of multimedia in learning. Future research should be undertaken with a broader scope to investigate the long-term effects and other aspects that may influence the success of multimedia application in education.
