This study employs the ADDIE model to develop a digital book designed to improve the scientific writing competencies of elementary education students. A needs analysis indicated that students have a limited understanding of research methodologies and academic writing, with an average proficiency rate of only 45%. They expressed moderate difficulty in writing scientific articles and requested the development of a user-friendly and visually engaging digital book. In response to these findings, we produced an innovative digital book in HTML5 and PDF formats, featuring clearly defined learning objectives, AI-integrated materials, concise summaries, project assignments, and interactive quizzes. The content encompasses guidance on writing articles, examples of scientific article structures, and techniques for utilizing AI in writing. Validation by five experts yielded a score of 4.35 out of 5, affirming the material's strong content and presentation quality. A pilot study conducted with 26 students demonstrated a high usability score of 4.60, indicating that the digital book effectively enhances students' comprehension and motivation in scientific writing.

This study uses a qualitative phenomenological approach to explore the phenomena that occur in depth with a focus on the formation of Islamic culture that supports the formation of students' religious character in schools. The results of the study indicate that Madrasah Utsmaniah (ABIM) has implemented several strategies involving routine religious activities such as congregational prayer, teaching interpretation, and joint prayer, as well as the integration of Islamic values in various subjects. In addition, strengthening institutional governance based on Islamic principles also plays a role in creating a conducive environment for the formation of students' religious character. The findings of this study can be used as additional references related to character education and provide practical direction for Islamic schools in efforts to strengthen students' religious character through an Islamic school culture approach. Recommendations for further research are to expand the scope by involving several schools with different typologies to obtain a more varied picture of the influence of Islamic school culture on the formation of religious character.</em></p> 2025-05-16T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Bagus Cahyanto, Lia Nur Atiqoh Bela Dina, Adella Yauma Ulmy, Hdariyani Binti Kampun, Hasanatud Daroini, Ariska Farahdilla https://journalfai.unisla.ac.id/index.php/at-thulab/article/view/2375 Pencak Silat As a Character Building Strategy for Madrasah Ibtidaiyah Negeri 2 Serang Students; Thomas Lickona's Perspective 2025-04-26T09:13:13+07:00 Ririn Anggita Citra ririnanggitac@gmail.com Khaeroni Khaeroni khaeroni@uinbanten.ac.id Oman Farhurohman oman.farhurohman@uinbanten.ac.id <p>Juvenile delinquency is currently rampant in society. There are many cases such as brawls, acts of violence, and truancy at school; for this reason, character formation in children is very important to be implemented from an early age. The study aims to analyze the strategy of instilling character values through extracurricular pencak silat at MIN 2 Serang, an Islamic elementary school in Serang, Banten. MIN 2 Serang was chosen as the location of the study because it has shown a positive impact on the formation of student character through pencak silat activities, which are part of the local culture of Banten. This study uses a qualitative approach with a descriptive case study method, and this study found that instilling character values is carried out through three stages: moral knowing, feeling, and doing. The results of the study indicate that the Character Value Instillation Strategy instilled by the trainer, namely using the Moral Knowing Strategy, fosters discipline, Moral Feeling instills empathy, and Moral Doing instills the value of responsibility, but from this instillation, there are supporting factors, including adequate facilities. At the same time, challenges such as the distance of students' homes become obstacles to character formation. This study contributes to developing a character education model rooted in local culture.</p> 2025-05-21T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Ririn Anggita Citra, Khaeroni Khaeroni, Oman Farhurohman https://journalfai.unisla.ac.id/index.php/at-thulab/article/view/2331 Development of a Culturally Responsive Teaching and Learning Model Based on the Merdekan Curriculum at Madrasah Ibtidaiyah 2025-03-13T08:39:22+07:00 Nashran Azizan azizannashran@uinsyahada.ac.id Maulana Arafat Lubis maulanaarafat@uinsyahada.ac.id <p>Learning models play a vital role in maximizing educational outcomes. Therefore, it is essential for teachers to thoughtfully select and implement instructional models that align with effective teaching practices. However, the success of any model also relies heavily on the presence of a solid support system, such as well-prepared teaching materials and student books, which help make learning more meaningful and engaging. The development of the <strong>Culturally Responsive Teaching (CRT)</strong> model stems from the necessity to create educational experiences that are not only academically sound but also culturally appropriate, particularly in diverse classroom settings. By embedding local cultural values into lessons, CRT aims to enhance student engagement, reinforce cultural identity, and promote civic understanding. This study aimed to develop a <strong>CRT</strong> model for use in Pancasila Education that is valid, practical, and effective in improving the learning outcomes of elementary school students in Padangsidimpuan City. The research employed a <strong>Research and Development (R&amp;D)</strong> approach, using the <strong>ADDIE model</strong> which includes five stages: analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. The study was conducted at <strong>MIN 1 Padangsidimpuan</strong>, involving fourth-grade students as the sample. Data collection techniques included observation, testing, questionnaires, interviews, and documentation. Data analysis was performed both quantitatively, using SPSS software, and qualitatively. The findings indicate that the CRT model and its supporting materials are highly valid and practical, making them easy for teachers and students to use. Furthermore, the model was found to be very effective based on students' learning outcomes across two test phases.</p> 2025-05-21T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Nashran Azizan, Maulana Arafat Lubis https://journalfai.unisla.ac.id/index.php/at-thulab/article/view/2374 Effectiveness of Problem Based Learning Model Based on Comic in Increase the Ability to Think Creativity in Elementary School Students 2025-05-04T10:07:51+07:00 Qurrotal A'yun imas@unipasby.ac.id Imas Srinana Wardani Imas@unipasby.ac.id <p>Study This is based on the ability reason creative low students​ to understand the Topic of chain food.

This research was conducted at SDN Petir 04 in class III, the second semester of the 2023/2024 academic year. The research method used is quasi-experimental with a nonequivalent control group design. The research samples in this study were class III-B students as the experimental class and class III-C students as the control class, which were obtained using cluster random sampling techniques. The test given is an essay with seven questions. The statistical analysis using the Independent Sample T-test showed a significance value of 0.000 &lt; 0.05, leading to the rejection of H<sub>0</sub> and acceptance of H<sub>1</sub>. This confirms that students in the experimental class, who were taught using fraction puzzle media, demonstrated better conceptual understanding than those in the control class, who received conventional instruction. The fraction puzzle media enhances learning by providing a hands-on, interactive experience that helps students visualize and manipulate fraction concepts more effectively. This approach facilitates deeper comprehension, reduces misconceptions, and improves problem-solving skills related to fractions. Therefore, integrating fraction puzzle media into mathematics instruction can effectively enhance students’ conceptual understanding and engagement in learning fractions.</p> 2025-05-23T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Ahda Syarifah , Tri Suryaningsih, Rohmat Widiyanto https://journalfai.unisla.ac.id/index.php/at-thulab/article/view/2361 Hip-Hop-Based Education as Extracurricular Activity: A Case Study of Learning English Using Rap in Muhammadiyah Elementary School 2025-05-06T07:48:33+07:00 Sri Lestari sri.lestari@um-surabaya.ac.id <p>As one of the learning media, music has been used in hip-hop extracurricular classes at an elementary school in Indonesia. This study aimed to analyze the characteristics of learning English by using music on how teacher exposure English and culture to the students. This study used a qualitative method with purposeful sampling technique with extreme case sampling strategy. The data obtained from observation, teacher interview, and video stimulated recall. The results of teaching English with rap music in the hip-hop extracurricular classes included speed rap, rhyming word, verb rap, and battle rap lyric. These teaching activities emphasized only on the form and word meaning. Hip-hop culture was taught through language and style. Teacher taught the student to know hook while he was concerning about student’s English level. Besides, rap styles were taught on how the student dance and wear costume while they were performing in the stage. Since the school has Islamic identity, the teacher integrated the rap styles with Islamic culture. Thus, the teacher preferred to teach his own rap creation rather than adopted rap content from internet or other sources. Although there were no significant results in improving students' English comprehension, hip-hop music in extracurricular classes makes students feel happy and relaxed. Laforgue-Bullido, Abril-Hervás, &amp; Malik-Liévano (2024) stated that the potential benefit of hip-hop as an educational tool by making subject content more engaging, which encouraged teachers to use it as hook’ to capture student’ interest. </p> 2025-05-23T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Sri Lestari https://journalfai.unisla.ac.id/index.php/at-thulab/article/view/2051 Development of Diorama Media in Science Subject for 5th Grade Elementary Student 2024-09-21T16:33:27+07:00 Sulaiman sulaimanpgsd2020@gmail.com Meirza Nanda Faradita meirzananda@um-surabaya.ac.id Ishmatun Naila ishmatunnaila@um-surabaya.ac.id Qaulan Sadida ishmatunnaila@um-surabaya.ac.id <p>Observations carried out by researchers in class V SDIT Ar Rayyan Surabaya found that the media used in the science and science subjects in class V SDIT Ar Rayyan did not use diorama media.
