This study, utilizing MindMeister, aims to examine the impact of using the mind mapping technique on the ability of 7th-grade students at SMP Negeri 1 Parbuluan to retell the content of a narrative text they have read. The research population consisted of 172 7th-grade students, with a sample size of 56 students divided into two groups: a control class and an experimental class, each comprising 28 students. The research employed a quantitative method with a true experimental design. The research instrument was a performance test, and the data were analyzed using a t-test. Based on the results, the average score of students’ ability to narrate the content of a narrative text using the close reading technique was 62.21, with a standard deviation of 6.33, which falls into the “poor” category. Meanwhile, the students’ ability to retell the narrative text using the mind mapping technique with the assistance of MindMeister was 80.07, categorized as “good,” with a standard deviation of 5.48. The data indicated an improvement in the average scores between the control class, which used the intensive reading technique, and the experimental class, which applied the mind mapping technique. Through hypothesis testing, it was found that Thitung > Ttabel, thus rejecting H0 and accepting H1. This means that the use of the mind mapping technique with the help of MindMeister positively influences the ability of 7th-grade students at SMP Negeri 1 Parbuluan to retell narrative texts.

The author's motivation for undertaking this study stems from a previous observation that instructors continued to employ an expository method that was monotonous and devoid of variety. The instructor primarily employs the lecture method to impart the learning material, which restricts their ability to utilise infrastructure and facilities such as mind mapping and concentration for the students. This form of inquiry employs descriptive qualitative research methodology, specifically characterising a symptom associated with a current event. By utilising data collection methods such as documentation, interviews, and observation. Class V students served as the primary informants, while the Islamic Religious Education Instructor and the School Principal provided supplementary information. Following this, the author conducts data analysis through data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing from the study. The findings of the study indicate that: 1) The expository method was implemented with PAI subjects. After conducting research on its learning applications, it has been optimised. Because educators possess a professional demeanour and impart knowledge in accordance with their academic credentials. 2) Possessing assets that serve as corroborating elements in the instructor's implementation and utilisation of learning resources pertaining to Islamic religious education that are accessible and deemed satisfactory in their efficacy. However, there are impediments: a) the teacher's capacity to design learning is constrained (insufficient), b) the length of the teacher's explanations is excessive, c) the reliance on textbooks lacks creativity and is monotonous, and d) educators' endeavours to surmount challenges are also hindered. when the expository method is applied to PAI subjects:. 3) Efforts made by educators to overcome inhibiting factors in the application of expository methods, especially in PAI subjects, can be overcome by developing expository methods, such as using teaching aids, and supplementing with worksheets, and using textbooks that are less imaginative, rigid, and emphasized. on factual learning, memorization, and so on. Thus, it can be stated that the application of the expository method in the implementation of the Islamic Religious Education learning process produces a good learning process and can improve student learning achievement.

This research is a Classroom Action Research (CAR) conducted at MI Darussalam Barang, X District, Y Regency, with the aim of improving student learning outcomes in Fiqh subjects, especially in Zakat Fitrah material, through the application of the Mind Mapping learning method. This research was conducted in two cycles, where each cycle consisted of two meetings that went through four stages: planning, action, observation, and reflection. This research was conducted because it was found that there were still students who had not achieved the Minimum Completion Criteria (KKM), caused by the lack of student involvement in learning, as well as the use of methods that were less effective and varied, resulting in a lack of enthusiasm for learning and boredom in students. The formulation of the problem in this study is: 1) How is the application of the Mind Mapping learning method to improve learning outcomes in the Fiqh subject of Zakat Fitrah in class IV MI Darussalam Barang? 2) How is the improvement in learning outcomes in the Fiqh subject of Zakat Fitrah after the application of the Mind Mapping method in class IV MI Darussalam Barang?The results of the study showed an increase in student learning outcomes on the subject of Zakat Fitrah after the Mind Mapping method was applied, which can be seen from the level of student learning completion in each cycle. In the pre-cycle, student completion was 46% with an average learning outcome of 70.36. In cycle I, completion increased to 82% with an average learning outcome of 81.61. In cycle II, completion reached 93% with an average learning outcome of 88.66, indicating a significant increase in student learning outcomes.

So far the education system in Indonesia has not optimally implemented: classroom learning so it does not accommodate the needs of each student. It is proven that remedial learning is still in demand to increase skills outside of class hours. This condition is a serious enough problem that parents are looking for options to increase their children's abilities through tutoring. Schools in all educational units should be able to apply the concept of differential learning, namely learning that prioritizes the learning needs of age to face challenges. However, this does not mean that differentiation learning provides different treatment. In fact, every child is unique, has different styles, interests and abilities. The results of  the counseling at Kumon prove the speed of students in answering 100 questions in 5 minutes. On average, students complete their assignments. Then the child learns to the next level. If they cannot reach the time limit, students will be motivated to repeat it until they meet the minimum time limit. The mind mapping and Kumon methods have similarities

The era of globalization brings changes by causing religion, which was originally a public issue, to turn into a privacy issue. The development of religion which has become a private matter makes teenagers as identity seekers tend to implement it. The purpose of this activity is to preserve Walisongo so that it is not eliminated from the historical facts of the spread of Islam.

The results of this service activity have a positive impact on teenagers because know more about the nine saints of God who spread Islam in the archipelago and increase their understanding of the character of the saints and their struggles. The impact of getting to know the teenagers in Bebekan Tengah Village, Taman District, Sidoarjo Regency increased their admiration for the walisongo struggle which resulted in an increase in pilgrimages to the walisongo graves.
