The research method employed is a literature review, analyzing relevant sources related to the integration of science and religion and the implementation of the Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) approach. The findings reveal that this approach enhances students' understanding of the relationship between scientific knowledge and religious teachings through context-based learning. It not only helps students connect theory to practice but also strengthens their spiritual foundation. Despite challenges such as limited resources and teacher preparedness, significant opportunities remain through technology and supportive policies. This study recommends developing integrated curricula for primary and secondary education levels and providing teacher training to implement meaningful, relevant, and applicable learning. Such a curriculum is expected to shape a generation with academic and spiritual excellence, prepared to face global challenges while adhering to Islamic principles</em></p> Zenab Tasrik Ahmad Copyright (c) 2024 Zenab Tasrik Ahmad https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 2024-12-02 2024-12-02 5 2 1 11 PENDIDIKAN ISLAM KE ARAH REKONSTRUKSI SAINS ISLAM https://ejournal.iaingorontalo.ac.id/index.php/edu/article/view/1544 <p><em>This article discusses Islamic education towards the reconstruction of Islamic science, using a literature review method with descriptive analysis. The issues raised include two main questions: The Concept of Education in Islam and the Reconstruction of Science in Islam. The literature review identifies four interrelated fundamental points in this context. First, Islamic education aims to form a holistic Muslim individual by developing physical and spiritual potential and fostering harmonious relationships with Allah SWT, humanity, and nature. This is based on the concept of a complete human being in Islam. Second, from its inception, Islamic education has focused on a philosophical perspective, viewing humans as creatures of God with inherent religious-Islamic potential. This potential is developed vertically (relationship with God) and horizontally (relationship with others and nature) to achieve both physical and spiritual happiness. Third, awareness of the importance of education drives self-development, with the understanding that the duty of a servant of Allah SWT is to be a responsible khalifah (steward) in managing and preserving nature. This is realized by avoiding egoism and fostering egalitarian traits in utilizing and conserving natural resources. Fourth, the reconstruction of Islamic science requires a strong belief in Allah, the revelation of tasyri’ secrets, the proof of the miraculous nature of the Qur'an, the fulfillment of worship responsibilities, and the Qur'anic approach to science and the universe, in order to integrate scientific knowledge with Islamic values.</em></p> winarwaty pilomango rinaldi datunsolang Copyright (c) 2024 winarwaty pilomango, rinaldi datunsolang https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 2024-12-02 2024-12-02 5 2 12 27 10.58176/edu.v5i2.1544 INTEGRASI POLA ASUH OTORITATIF DAN NILAI-NILAI ISLAM DALAM PENDIDIKAN DASAR: MEMBENTUK GENERASI TANGGUH DI ERA DIGITAL https://ejournal.iaingorontalo.ac.id/index.php/edu/article/view/1675 <p><em>This study aims to explore how the integration of authoritative parenting with Islamic values can be applied in primary education to shape resilient and adaptive children's character in the digital era. A qualitative method with a literature review approach was employed, analyzing various credible sources on parenting styles, Islamic values, and the impact of technology on child development.

Historical records show that Islamic education policy experiences ups and downs according to the role of policy makers. The political dynamics of Islamic education from pre-independence to the reform period had content and values in the formation of national civilization. Education and politics are a unity that shapes human characteristics and civilization. This relationship is an empirical reality that has occurred since the beginning of the development of human civilization. Another important thing is the social and cultural aspects of Islamic education that occur in adulthood. The emergence of the phenomenon of modern society which should focus on solutions in supporting the political development of human life civilization. So this article also examines significant changes in social and cultural transformation in Islamic education. Where Islamic education is expected to be able to develop insight into Islamic life which is realized in human relationships with the Almighty Creator, human relationships with each other and the environment in which humans are active. In the social aspect, there are changes in people's attitudes and behavior related to norms, ethics and morality. Globalization with increasingly sophisticated developments in science and technology has influenced individuals and social groups. Changes that create imbalances in social relationships, create conflict and change the dynamics of interactions between individuals. In a cultural context, it influences the identity and traditions of a group. Traditional values often compete with modern values which are more individualistic and consumeristic. This can threaten the continuity of local cultures and stimulate the search for new identities that reflect changes in people's cultural patterns of life. In education, it has a significant impact on curriculum, teaching methods, and educational goals. Modern education tends to emphasize technical abilities and global understanding, while moral and character aspects are often neglected. This can lead to a generation that may have extensive knowledge, but is far from having akhlakulkarimah character because it is far from the values of Islamic education. This article contributes to the understanding of political, social and cultural aspects in Islamic education. Thus, it is hoped that this article can be an inspiration for educators, researchers and policy makers in developing Islamic education that is rahmatan lil'alamin, relevant and meaningful to human civilization.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> Suwarin Rais Nusi kasim yahiji Copyright (c) 2024 Suwarin Rais Nusi, kasim yahiji https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 2024-12-30 2024-12-30 5 2 87 105 10.58176/edu.v5i2.1598 DEVELOPMENT OF LEARNING MEDIA USING AUGMENTED REALITY ASSEMBLR EDU ON ECOSYSTEM MATERIAL FOR CLASS V SD STUDENTS https://ejournal.iaingorontalo.ac.id/index.php/edu/article/view/2036 <p><em>This study aims to determine the validity and practicality of the media developed so that it can be used in the learning process.
