STRATEGI GURU PAI DALAM MENINGKATKAN NUANSA RELIGIUS SISWA SMA WAHID HASYIM TALANG

Abstract

Schools are educational institutions that play a crucial role in instilling values and religious attitudes in students. The teacher has a significant responsibility in nurturing and developing the spiritual and social attitudes of students. This research aims to determine the strategies of Islamic Education teachers in enhancing the religious atmosphere among students at Wahid Hasyim Talang High School. By using a qualitative research method with a case study approach, it is hoped that these strategies can be applied by Islamic Education teachers to instill religious values in students. The results of the study indicate that the Islamic Education teachers at Wahid Hasyim Talang High School implement several strategies to enhance the religious atmosphere among students, including habituation of religious practices, integration of religious values into learning, and setting an example, such as reciting prayers before and after lessons and conducting congregational prayers. This research also explores the supporting and inhibiting factors in the implementation of the strategy, including students' interest in religious activities, support from the school environment, and the development of religious extracurricular activities. Factors influencing the success of the PAI teacher's strategy include support from the school principal, teacher competence, the school environment, and parental participation. The efforts of PAI teachers in enhancing the religious atmosphere among students have an impact on the formation of religious character and the increase in students' motivation to learn Islamic education. Research shows that the active involvement of teachers in the learning process and the creation of a conducive religious atmosphere significantly influences students' practice of religious values. This research is expected to contribute to the development of more effective religious education strategies and serve as a reference for Islamic Education teachers in other schools in their efforts to enhance students' religiosity.
