PENGARUH PENDEKATAN PEMBELAJARAN TERHADAP KECENDERUNGAN PHUBBING PADA MAHASISWAPROGRAM STUDI PAI UIN AR-RANIRY

Abstract

The rising use of smartphones among university students has given rise to phubbing behavior—the tendency to ignore direct social interaction during the learning process. This study aims to examine the relationship between learning approaches in Islamic Religious Education (PAI) courses and the tendency to engage in phubbing during lectures. The research employed a quantitative approach supported by qualitative data through questionnaires, interviews with lecturers, and classroom observations. The results indicate that learning approaches involving active student participation and two-way interaction tend to reduce phubbing behavior. Although no statistically significant relationship was found, qualitative findings suggest that varied teaching methods, lecturer role models, and reinforcement of Islamic values contribute to raising students’ awareness of respectful learning conduct and responsible technology use. These findings highlight the importance of learning approaches that not only deliver academic material but also foster character development and digital discipline among students in Islamic education settings.
