Keywords:
PAI, digital gamification, learning innovation, conceptual understandingAbstract
The development of digital technology offers significant opportunities for the transformation of education, including Islamic Religious Education (PAI). One emerging approach is the application of digital gamification as an innovative learning strategy. This article aims to examine the effectiveness of digital gamification in enhancing students’ learning motivation and conceptual understanding in PAI learning. Through a qualitative approach using the literature review method, it was found that the incorporation of game elements into the learning process can significantly increase student engagement. Gamification not only stimulates intrinsic motivation but also facilitates the understanding of religious concepts through visualization, simulation, and enjoyable challenges.
