APPLICATION OF ROLE PLAY LEARNING METHOD IN INCREASING MORALITY OF ISLAMIC INTEGRATED PRIMARY SCHOOL STUDENTS IN THE SUBJECT OF ISLAMIC RELIGIOUS EDUCATION

Abstract. Education is one of the gates for shaping the morality of the nations children, in formal, informal and non-formal education. Elementary school is the initial foundation for the moral development of students. At school, student moral formation is carried out through daily subjects such as Islamic religious education, from the elementary school level to the university level. Through religious education, the government hopes to shape the character of moral youth in accordance with the principles that depend upon the religion. Many factors can influence learning achievement, one of which is the learning method, one of which is the role playing method. The type of this study was a quasi-type two-group pretest-posttest experiment. The study population was students of the Islamic Integrated Primary School in Jakarta. The analytical method uses a difference t-test, which compares the significance value with table t, with significance requirements (sig.) (P) = <0.05, with an error rate of 5%. Based on the results of processing the t-test, a significance value of (p) = 0.000; ((p) <0.05) was obtained, meaning that there is a difference in the morality level of Jakarta Islamic elementary school students based on giving role playing learning methods. The magnitude of the mean value possessed by the two groups shows the mean of the experimental group is greater (μ = 11,000) when compared to the mean of the control group (μ = 10,000). This means that the experimental group has a higher level of morality than the control group.
