Technology-Based PAI Learning Evaluation To Improve Religious Competency Achievement

Abstract

The integration of technology in Islamic Religious Education (PAI) learning has become an important strategy for enhancing students' religious competency achievement. This article aims to evaluate various technology-based PAI learning approaches and their effectiveness in improving religious learning outcomes. Based on a literature review, findings indicate that blended learning and Edmodo-based e-learning models have proven to increase student participation, motivation, and learning outcomes. Pedagogical approaches such as value clarification and Islamic psychoeducation are also effective in helping students internalize and apply religious values. Key supporting factors for success include the availability of technological infrastructure and comprehensive teacher training to master digital teaching strategies. Furthermore, integrating Islamic values with science and technology creates more meaningful and contextual learning. This study concludes that technology-based PAI learning, when supported by appropriate models, value-based approaches, and competent teachers, has significant potential to substantially improve students' religious competency.
