Abstract
ENGLISH: Strategy for Utilizing Artificial Intelligence in Islamic Religious Education Learning in Junior High Schools
Objective: This study aims to develop strategies for the ethical and practical use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) features in the Canva application to transform Islamic Religious Education (IRE) learning at the junior high school level. Method: The research method used a qualitative descriptive approach. Data was collected through participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and document analysis. Results: Canva's Magic Studio and automation feature reduced material preparation time to 30–60 minutes, enabling the production of relevant visual media. The “SIKAP” blended learning model with strict Islamic content control increased student motivation, theological understanding, memory, classroom interaction, and pedagogical efficiency. Conclusion: The integration of Canva-based AI, which is ethical and strictly supervised by humans (human-in-the-loop), has proven capable of revitalizing junior high school PAI learning, making it more engaging and relevant to the digital generation without compromising Islamic values or the role of teachers as guardians of morals. Contribution: This study developed a replicable and low-cost “Blended PAI-AI with Islamic Content Control” model for PAI teachers in Indonesia. It enriched the TPACK theory with the dimensions of Islamic ethics and content validation in AI-assisted religious education.
