Boredom during the learning process often becomes a significant barrier to students’ motivation and engagement, especially in vocational education settings. This phenomenon was also observed at SMKS Muhammadiyah 9 Medan, where some students demonstrated a lack of interest and active participation during learning activities. This study aims to analyze how the implementation of active learning strategies can reduce boredom and improve the quality of classroom interaction. A qualitative approach with a case study design was employed. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews with teachers and students, direct classroom observations, and supporting documentation. The data were analyzed inductively using thematic analysis to identify emerging patterns, trends, and meanings from teaching practices. The findings reveal that the application of active learning strategies—such as group discussions, project-based learning, problem solving, and the use of interactive learning media—positively impacts the learning process. These strategies not only enhance participation and learning motivation but also foster collaboration among students, improve teacher–student communication, and develop critical and social thinking skills. Furthermore, the classroom atmosphere becomes more dynamic, enjoyable, and participatory, significantly reducing learning boredom. Therefore, active learning strategies are proven to be relevant and effective in creating engaging, interactive, and meaningful learning experiences for students at SMKS Muhammadiyah 9 Medan. This research provides practical implications for teachers in selecting appropriate learning approaches to achieve educational goals more effectively.

This research endeavors to scrutinize how keen students are on learning Islamic Religious Education (PAI) at SMKS Muhammadiyah 9 Medan. The impetus for this investigation arises from the noticeable lack of enthusiasm among students when they attend PAI lessons. These lessons are frequently seen as uninteresting, lacking variety, and less stimulating when compared to the vocational subjects they are studying. These circumstances create difficulties for PAI instructors, who must establish a learning environment that not only delivers content but also cultivates real motivation and a genuine passion in the students. A qualitative descriptive method was used for this study, and information was gathered through classroom observations, conversations with instructors and students, and surveys to gain insights into students' views on their educational experiences. The information was analyzed to pinpoint the internal and external elements that affect learning interest. The results show that the students' level of interest in learning is somewhere between moderate and low. Personal drive, study routines, and students' mental preparation are examples of internal variables, whereas teaching strategies, the use of educational resources, and the backing of the school setting and family are examples of external variables. The research emphasizes the necessity for teaching strategies that are relevant, diverse, engaging, and more in line with the requirements of the students, based on these findings. It is hoped that learning PAI will not only improve cognitive comprehension but will also raise awareness of the significance of Islamic principles in daily life.

This study highlights the crucial role of learning interest as a key determinant of success in the educational process. The research was conducted through interviews with teachers and direct observations in the learning environment, aiming to explore how various factors influence students’ interest, particularly in religious education. The findings indicate that teachers play an essential role by adopting creative approaches in their teaching methods. For instance, the integration of digital tools, such as instructional videos, was found to be highly effective in capturing students’ attention and enhancing their engagement during lessons. Furthermore, parental support emerged as a significant factor, as parents act as the first educators at home by instilling fundamental religious values and attitudes that shape students’ motivation. The results also suggest that a positive classroom atmosphere, where students feel appreciated and supported by their teachers, contributes to higher levels of interest and participation in religious studies. In addition, the study emphasizes the importance of differentiated instruction, where tasks are adjusted to match students’ abilities and learning needs. By connecting lesson materials with real-life experiences, teachers can further foster students’ intrinsic motivation, making learning more meaningful and relevant. Overall, the research demonstrates that cultivating interest in learning requires collaboration between teachers, parents, and supportive learning environments.

Pemilihan jurusan di Sekolah Menengah Kejuruan (SMK) merupakan tahap penting yang mempengaruhi arah pendidikan dan karier siswa di masa depan. Di SMK XYZ Kabupaten Tegal, pemilihan jurusan masih dilakukan secara konvensional dengan mempertimbangkan nilai rapor dan saran dari guru atau orang tua, yang cenderung bersifat subjektif dan tidak sepenuhnya memperhatikan potensi serta minat individual siswa. Untuk itu, penelitian ini bertujuan mengembangkan sistem pendukung keputusan (SPK) yang dapat memberikan rekomendasi jurusan secara objektif dan sistematis menggunakan dua metode, yaitu Naive Bayes dan Simple Additive Weighting (SAW). Naive Bayes, yang berbasis pada algoritma probabilistik, telah terbukti efektif dalam memprediksi ketuntasan belajar siswa, sementara SAW banyak digunakan dalam pengambilan keputusan multikriteria dengan memperhitungkan beberapa aspek kriteria seperti nilai rapor, hasil psikotes, dan minat siswa. Penelitian ini mengkomparasi kedua metode tersebut untuk menentukan mana yang lebih optimal dalam memberikan rekomendasi jurusan yang akurat dan sesuai dengan karakteristik siswa di SMK XYZ. Hasil penelitian diharapkan dapat memberikan solusi alternatif bagi sekolah dalam proses pemilihan jurusan yang lebih objektif, efisien, dan minim subjektivitas, serta dapat diterapkan pada proses pendidikan di SMK lainnya.
