This study aims to improve students' understanding of the obligation to serve their parents through the application of mind mapping in the 11th-grade Al-Qur'an and Hadith subject at MA NU Maron. The background of this study was the lack of student understanding of the material presented using conventional methods, necessitating learning innovations that are engaging and motivating. This study used a Classroom Action Research (CAR) approach, implemented in two cycles. Each cycle included planning, implementation, observation, and reflection. The research instruments consisted of comprehension tests, observation sheets, and documentation. The results showed that the application of the mind mapping method increased student engagement in the learning process, facilitated their understanding of the material, and strengthened their memory. In the first cycle, students' learning achievement showed an initial increase, and in the second cycle, the results improved significantly, reaching the specified success indicator. Thus, it can be concluded that the mind mapping method is effective in improving students' understanding of the Al-Qur'an and Hadith subject, particularly the material on the obligation to serve their parents.

This study aims to improve students’ learning activities and learning outcomes in history learning through the implementation of a digital visual-based mind mapping method at SD Plus Asy-Syafi’iyah Nabire, Central Papua. This research employed a Classroom Action Research (CAR) approach conducted in two cycles, each consisting of planning, action, observation, and reflection stages. The research subjects consisted of 40 students. Data were collected through observation of students’ learning activities, learning achievement tests, and documentation. The data were analyzed using descriptive quantitative and qualitative techniques. The results indicated that the average score of students’ learning activities increased from 2.0 in the pre-cycle to 3.6 in the second cycle. In addition, the average learning achievement score increased from 62.4 in the pre-cycle to 83.6 in the second cycle, with classical mastery reaching 90%. These findings demonstrate that the digital visual-based mind mapping method is effective in improving students’ learning activities and learning outcomes in elementary school history learning.
