PENERAPAN MODEL KOOPERATIF TIPE STAD UNTUK MENINGKATKAN HASIL BELAJAR PENDIDIKAN AGAMA ISLAM CISEENG

Abstract

This study aims to examine the effect of the cooperative learning model Student Teams Achievement Division (STAD) on students’ learning outcomes in Islamic Religious Education (PAI) at SMA Negeri 1 Ciseeng. The STAD model emphasizes collaboration within small heterogeneous groups to enhance students’ understanding, motivation, and social interaction. This study employed a quantitative approach using a quasi-experimental design with a control group pretest–posttest model. The sample consisted of two groups: an experimental group that received instruction using the STAD model and a control group that was taught using conventional instructional methods. Data were collected through achievement tests administered before and after the intervention and were analyzed using appropriate statistical techniques. The results indicate that students taught using the STAD model achieved significantly higher learning outcomes than those taught through conventional methods. These findings suggest that the STAD cooperative learning model is effective in improving students’ comprehension and engagement in Islamic Religious Education. Therefore, STAD can be considered an alternative instructional strategy to enhance the quality of PAI learning in secondary schools.
