The use of digital learning media and discussion methods is increasingly important to support junior high school students' learning outcomes. Digital media, such as videos, animations, and interactive platforms, facilitate understanding of material and increase learning motivation, while discussion methods encourage active participation, critical thinking, and student reflection. This study examines the influence of the use of digital learning media and discussion methods on junior high school students to obtain a comprehensive picture of the effectiveness of both variables in improving student learning outcomes. A qualitative method with a literature review approach was used as the research method. Sources were obtained from relevant journals, articles, and books, and analyzed descriptively and qualitatively. The results found that the use of digital media and discussion methods had a positive effect on student learning outcomes. Implications emphasize the importance of adequate technological facilities and teacher training to utilize digital media and discussion methods to create enjoyable and interactive learning.

This study aims to determine the appropriate choice of Fiqh learning media for eighth-grade students at MTs Manbail Futuh Jenu. The background of this study is the low ability of students to remember Fiqh material due to the dominant use of lectures and textbooks. The method used in this study was descriptive qualitative, with data collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The research findings indicate that the majority of students prefer audio-visual, visual, and interactive learning media such as videos, animations, illustrative images, flashcards, and educational games. The use of these media facilitates students' understanding and retention of practical Fiqh material, such as ablution, tayammum, and prayer. Conversely, the use of lectures without engaging media quickly causes students to become bored and struggle to retain the material. This study concludes that selecting learning media that aligns with students' preferences can improve their memory and comprehension of Fiqh material.
