Pengaruh kualitas pembelajaran terhadap prestasi belajar siswa pada bidang studi Pendidikan Agama Islam

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of learning quality on students’ academic achievement in Islamic Religious Education (IRE) at the elementary school level. Learning quality is examined through dimensions of instructional planning, teaching implementation, teacher–student interaction, and assessment processes. A quantitative descriptive approach was applied, involving data collection through questionnaires, documentation, and structured observations. The findings reveal that high learning quality significantly contributes to improved student achievement in IRE, particularly in conceptual understanding, attitude formation, and skill development. The study also highlights that effective teachers demonstrate mastery of pedagogical competencies, integrate appropriate learning media, and manage classrooms in ways that foster active, disciplined, and meaningful learning environments. Additionally, students exposed to high-quality learning tend to show increased motivation, deeper engagement, and better retention of Islamic values. The results emphasize the importance of continuous professional development for teachers and the integration of innovative instructional strategies to strengthen learning quality. This research contributes to the growing body of literature that underscores the relationship between instructional excellence and student outcomes, particularly within the domain of religious education. The implications suggest that improved learning quality should be prioritized to enhance not only academic achievement but also the holistic character development of students
