Abstract


This study aims to examine the learning innovations of Islamic Religious Education (PAI) based on blended learning for grade V students at SD Negeri Kunci 02, Sidareja District, Cilacap Regency. The blended learning model combines face-to-face and online learning by leveraging digital technology, creating a learning experience that is flexible, interactive, and adaptive to the challenges of the digital age. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques through observation, interviews, documentation, and learning outcome tests. The results of the study show that: 1) the implementation of blended learning at SD Negeri Kunci 02 is well carried out. Teachers use various digital media such as learning videos, Google Classroom, and WhatsApp Groups. Face-to-face learning is used to reinforce concepts, while online learning is used to deepen material and students' independent activities. 2) Factors supporting success include teachers' readiness in digital literacy, the availability of technology devices in schools, and parental support. However, there are also obstacles such as limited internet access at students' homes, increased teacher workload, and low digital literacy among some parents. 3) In terms of effectiveness, the implementation of blended learning has been proven to improve student learning outcomes. Average student scores increased significantly, and affective and psychomotor skills also developed. Students are more active in online discussions, show enthusiasm for learning, and apply religious values in daily life. Thus, blended learning not only improves academic understanding, but also supports the formation of religious character. This study concludes that blended learning is an effective and relevant learning innovation for PAI learning in elementary schools, and has great potential to be applied more widely in the context of digital-based education.
