DAMPAK PEMBELAJARAN PENDIDIKAN AGAMA ISLAM BERBASIS PROYEK (PROJECT-BASED LEARNING) TERHADAP KREATIVITAS MAHASISWA

Abstract

Islamic Religious Education (PAI) plays a crucial role in shaping students' character, but conventional methods are often less effective in enhancing creativity. This study analyzes the impact of Project-Based Learning (PBL) on the creativity of PAI students at Universitas Islam Kebangsaan Indonesia (UNIKI). Using a quasi-experimental design, the study involved 60 students, divided into an experimental group (PBL) and a control group (conventional method). Data were analyzed using t-tests based on creativity questionnaires and observations. The results indicate that PBL significantly enhances creativity, with a 31.3% increase in the experimental group compared to 11.9% in the control group. PBL also improves thinking flexibility (25.7%), idea originality (29.2%), and creative product skills (28.4%) more effectively than conventional methods. PBL has proven to be an effective approach to enhancing students' creativity in PAI and can serve as an innovative learning method in higher education.
