The advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has brought significant changes to various aspects of life, including the field of education, particularly Islamic Education. This study aims to explore various AI-based learning strategies that can be implemented to create a more effective, interactive, and contemporary learning process. The method employed in this study is a literature review by examining various scholarly sources, such as journals, books, and academic articles discussing the implementation of AI in education. The findings indicate that the integration of AI can be realized through personalized learning tailored to students’ needs, the use of chatbots as learning assistants, the analysis of students’ progress and learning outcomes, as well as the utilization of technology-based learning media. These strategies are not only capable of improving students’ cognitive aspects but can also strengthen the internalization of Islamic values when applied appropriately and systematically. Furthermore, this study emphasizes that teachers’ technological competence, infrastructure readiness, and the development of an adaptive curriculum are crucial factors in the successful implementation of AI-based learning within the context of Islamic Education.

This study aims to describe the strategies of Islamic Religious Education (PAI) teachers in increasing the learning participation of low-ability students at SDN 008 Tebing Karimun. Learning participation is an important indicator of learning success, but in reality there is still low student involvement in the learning process. Inhibiting factors come from internal aspects such as low confidence and limited cognitive abilities, as well as external aspects in the form of less varied learning strategies and less supportive classroom environments. This study uses a qualitative approach with a descriptive type, involving PAI teachers as the main informants and students as supporting informants. Data was collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, then analyzed with an interactive model that included data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawn, and tested for validity through triangulation. The results of the study showed that teachers' strategies include active learning, group discussions, individual approaches, and the use of learning media. The obstacles faced include low student confidence, cognitive limitations, and lack of variety of methods. The solutions carried out by teachers are in the form of providing motivation, applying innovative methods, and creating a conducive learning environment. This study concludes that PAI teachers' strategies play an important role in increasing the learning participation of low-ability students through innovative, interactive, and student-centered learning.

The rapid development of information technology has had a significant impact on the world of education, particularly in the use of mobile applications as learning media. Developing Android-based applications using Flutter is one innovation that can increase efficiency and provide a more personalized and adaptive learning experience. In this context, educators are required to continue innovating to meet the increasingly diverse and dynamic needs of students in the digital era. The Multimedia and Information Technology Professional Association (PPMultindo), an organization that brings together technology professionals, is taking advantage of this opportunity by developing an Android-based learning platform. This platform is designed to provide easier, more flexible, and more interactive access to learning materials, as well as support the process of designing more engaging materials. Features such as learning data analysis, material recommendations, and automatic evaluation are expected to increase the effectiveness and efficiency of the teaching and learning process, while also providing a means for collaboration between members. However, the implementation of this technology still faces various challenges, such as limited technological competence of educators, inadequate infrastructure, and the need for curriculum adjustments. Therefore, collaborative efforts are needed to optimize the use of mobile technology to support educational transformation.

Digital transformation in education requires Early Childhood Education (ECE) teachers to develop competencies in utilizing digital-based learning media. However, in rural ECE contexts, the use of technology remains limited due to the lack of contextual and sustainable training. This community service program aims to enhance the digital learning media competencies of teachers at PAUD Ath-Thoyyibah in Pangadegan Village through the Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD) approach. The program was implemented through stages of community asset mapping, collaborative action planning, practice-based training, and post-training mentoring and reflection. The results indicate that ECE teachers were able to develop simple digital learning media based on images, videos, and audio tailored to early childhood characteristics. In addition to improving technical skills, the program increased teachers’ self-confidence and fostered collaborative networks within the educational community. These findings demonstrate that the ABCD approach is effective in strengthening ECE teacher capacity by emphasizing local asset utilization and active community participation. This program contributes to improving the quality of early childhood learning and strengthening adaptive educational communities in response to technological development.

Teaching fiction in Indonesian language classrooms is often constrained by text-centered instruction and limited use of engaging digital media. In the era of Generation Z learners who are visually and digitally oriented, innovative learning materials are needed to enhance motivation, interpretation, and comprehension of literary texts. This study aims to develop and evaluate a Scribus-based digital magazine for fiction learning by integrating the ADDIE model within a qualitative descriptive framework. The research adopted a qualitative descriptive design comprising five stages of the ADDIE model: Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation. The study was conducted at SMP Negeri 10 Semarang, involving one Indonesian language teacher and fifteen Grade VIII students, who were selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, and analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model (data reduction, data display, conclusion drawing). Media and content experts conducted validation to assess the feasibility, usability, and pedagogical quality of the content. Findings revealed that the Scribus-based learning media effectively increased students’ engagement and comprehension in analyzing fictional elements such as plot, character, and setting. Expert validation results indicated a high feasibility level, with mean scores above 85% in design and content quality. Teachers reported improved classroom interaction and creativity, while students expressed enthusiasm for the visual and interactive format. The study concludes that open-source tools, such as Scribus, can provide cost-effective and pedagogically sound alternatives for developing literary learning media. The integration of ADDIE and multimodal design promotes contextual, engaging, and sustainable learning experiences. Future research should explore multimedia enhancements, such as audio storytelling and cross-curricular applications, to broaden the pedagogical impact.
