Abstract

This study aims to improve the learning outcomes of fourth-grade students on the Q.S. At-Tin material through the implementation of the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) model with puzzle media at SD Negeri 053998 B. Jengkol. The research method used is Classroom Action Research (CAR), which consists of three stages: pre-cycle, Cycle I, and Cycle II. Data were collected through learning outcome tests and observations of student activities during the learning process. The results indicate that implementing the PBL model with puzzle media significantly enhances students' learning outcomes. In the pre-cycle stage, most students had not yet achieved learning mastery. After the intervention in Cycle I, there was an improvement in students' understanding and engagement in learning. By Cycle II, nearly all students had reached the mastery level. This improvement demonstrates that using the PBL method with puzzle media enhances students' comprehension of the Q.S. At-Tin material while making the learning process more engaging and interactive. Thus, it can be concluded that the Problem-Based Learning model with puzzle media is an effective instructional strategy for improving students' learning outcomes in Islamic Religious Education.
