The Effect of the Flipped Classroom Model on Students' Al- Quran Reading Ability in Islamic Religious Education at "Excellent Children's Elementary School"

Abstract

This study aims to examine the effect of the Flipped Classroom Model on students' Al-Quran reading ability in Islamic Religious Education in elementary schools. The Flipped Classroom model is a learning method that allows students to study independently at home through learning videos before coming to class to discuss and deepen their understanding with direct support from the teacher. This study used a quasi-experimental research design with a population of students in classes 6A and 6B totaling 36 students at "Excellent Children's Elementary School". Data collection was carried out through an Al-Quran reading test, and the results of statistical analysis using the t-test The results showed that students in the experimental group who used Flipped Classroom had significantly higher Al-Quran reading abilities compared to the control group who used conventional learning. This research contributes to the understanding of the effectiveness of the flipped classroom model in learning the Quran in elementary schools. The suggested future research involves exploring the effect of the Flipped Classroom on a larger and more diverse sample of students from various elementary schools to enhance generalizability. Additionally, besides focusing on Al-Quran reading ability, the research can investigate the effects of the Flipped Classroom on students' cognitive (comprehension of Al-Quran content) and affective (emotions and motivation in learning) aspects.
