This study aims to determine the effect of using the problem-solving method in moral education at MIS Al Washliyah Pauh. The background of this research is the low level of student engagement in moral education learning, as well as the lack of students’ ability to face and solve moral issues that arise both in school and daily life. The problem-solving method was chosen because it encourages students to think critically, analytically, and reflectively in finding solutions to problems related to moral values. This research uses a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design. The research sample consisted of two classes: the experimental class, which applied the problem-solving method, and the control class, which used conventional methods. Instruments used in this study included moral education achievement tests and student activity observation sheets. Data were analyzed using the t-test to identify differences in learning outcomes between the two groups. The results showed a significant difference in learning outcomes between students taught using the problem-solving method and those taught using conventional methods. Students in the experimental class demonstrated improved understanding of the material, active participation in discussions, and enhanced ability to formulate solutions to moral problems. Therefore, the use of the problem-solving method has a positive impact on improving the quality of moral education at MIS Al Washliyah Pauh. This study recommends the broader implementation of the problem-solving method in Islamic Religious Education, especially in moral education topics.
