Abstract

This study aims to analyze the application of audio-visual learning media in improving the learning outcomes of Islamic Religious Education (PAI) in the material of Imitating the Obedience of the Angels of Allah SWT in grade VII of SMP Negeri 5 East Angkola. The background of this research is based on the low learning outcomes of students in understanding the material, which is caused by the lack of use of interesting and interactive learning media. This research uses the class action research method (PTK) which is carried out in two cycles. Each cycle consists of the stages of planning, implementation of actions, observation, and reflection. The subject of this study is grade VII students of SMP Negeri 5 East Angkola. Data was collected through learning outcome tests, observations, and interviews. The data analysis technique used is quantitative and qualitative descriptive analysis to see the improvement of student learning outcomes. The results of the study show that the application of audio-visual learning media significantly improves student learning outcomes. In the first cycle, the average student score increased compared to before the action, but still did not reach the minimum completeness target. After improvements were made in the second cycle, student learning outcomes improved better, with the majority of students achieving learning completion. In addition, students show an increase in learning motivation and deeper understanding of concepts. Thus, the application of audio-visual learning media has proven to be effective in improving student learning outcomes in the material of Imitating the Obedience of the Angels of Allah SWT in grade VII of SMP Negeri 5 East Angkola. Therefore, it is recommended to educators to use audio-visual learning media more often in the learning process to increase students' understanding and interest in learning.
