This study aims to determine the effectiveness of the implementation of cooperative learning methods on learning outcomes and students' understanding of Islamic Religious Education (IRE) subjects for Class VIII at MT Hubbul Wathon Sangatta Selatan. This study uses a quantitative method with a quasi-experimental research type using a non-equivalent control group design. The study population was 48 students of class VIII A and VIII B, with a sample size of 44 students, each class consisting of 22 students from the experimental class and the control class. Data collection techniques were carried out through tests (pre- and post-tests), observation, and recording. Data analysis used descriptive statistics, normality tests, homogeneity tests, N-Gain tests, and hypothesis tests (t-tests). The results showed that the average learning outcomes of students in the experimental class increased from 61.14% in the previous class to 84.09% in the next class, while in the control class increased from 63.41% to 77.73%. The results of the normality test showed that the data were normally distributed and the homogeneity test showed that the variances of the two groups were identical. The t-test results showed a significance value of 0.000 < 0.05, so it can be concluded that there is a significant difference between the experimental class and the control class. Thus, the cooperative learning method has a positive and effective effect in improving student learning outcomes and understanding in the Islamic Religious Education subject for Class VIII MT Hubbul Wathon Sangatta Selatan.

This research focuses on the role of Islamic Religious Education (PAI) teachers in actualizing the values of Ahlussunnah Wal Jamaah (Aswaja) Annahdliyah as one of the Islamic guidelines that develop and are firmly rooted in Indonesia. Aswaja values have distinctive characteristics that emphasize moderation, tolerance, and maintaining religious traditions that have been acculturated with local culture without abandoning the principles of Islamic law. In the context of education, Aswaja is an important foundation in shaping the character of students who are religious, nationalist, and able to appreciate diversity in a multicultural society. The purpose of this study is to find out: (1) how to implement the role of PAI teachers in integrating Aswaja values in the learning process at MA NU Assalafie Babakan Ciwaringin Cirebon, (2) problems that arise in the actualization process, such as limited student understanding, differences in family backgrounds, to the challenges of globalization currents that can affect religious understanding, and (3) efforts made by teachers to overcome them, for example, through a personal approach, strengthening Aswaja-based teaching materials, and collaboration with schools and parents. This study uses a qualitative method with a field study approach. Data was obtained through observation, in-depth interviews with madrasah heads, deputy heads of student affairs, and five PAI teachers, and documentation of learning activities. Data analysis was carried out through the stages of reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawn, then tested for validity with the source triangulation technique. The results of the study show that the role of PAI teachers is very crucial in maintaining the value of Aswaja so that it remains relevant and internalized in students.

Education is the forerunner of the birth of an intelligent generation. Education does not only take place at one moment, but education continues without knowing the age called lifelong education. In the teaching and learning process it is necessary to create comfortable conditions for students to learn. Therefore, today many learning models are applied in the learning process. This classroom action research aims to apply the Team Games Tournament (TGT) learning model in the teaching and learning process by optimizing the active role of students in the classroom and providing evaluations to measure student understanding of the material through the Team Games Tournament (TGT) learning model. The subjects of this study were junior high school students. The estimated duration of the study lasted at least one month. The timing of research refers to the school's academic calendar, because PTK requires several cycles that require an effective teaching and learning process in the classroom. In the learning process, there are several improvements that occur in students where based on the results of observing student attitudes in class during learning activities through the Teams Games Tournament (TGT) method it turns out to be able to change student learning attitudes and can improve student mindsets and learning activities and foster a sense of mutual cooperation between students.
