Abstract

This study aims to improve learning achievement in Islamic Religious Education (PAI) subjects, especially the material "Believing in the Angels of Allah" for fourth grade students of SDN 096755 Perkebunan Maligas, Kec. Bosar Maligas. The method used in this study combines the Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) approach with the Direct Learning learning model. The study was conducted with a quasi-experimental approach using a pretest-posttest design. Data were collected through written tests, observations, and documentation. Data analysis showed that the implementation of both methods synergistically had a significant effect on improving student learning achievement. The application of CTL helps students relate learning materials to the context of everyday life, while Direct Learning provides a clear structure and direction in the learning process. The results of this study indicate that innovation in PAI learning strategies, especially through the integration of CTL and Direct Learning methods, can improve student motivation, conceptual understanding, and learning achievement. The implications of this study are expected to be a reference for teachers in designing and implementing more effective and enjoyable learning in elementary school environments.
