Diskusi Atau Tanya Jawab? Metode Diskusi Dan Keaktifan Belajar Al-Qur'an Hadis Di Madrasah Tsanawiyah

Abstract

Classroom discussion is widely promoted to foster active learning, yet in many madrasahs it is practised in forms that differ from genuine discussion. Previous studies have reported the benefits of the discussion method, but few have examined how it is actually enacted in Qur'an and Hadith lessons and what kind of activeness it produces. This study aims to describe the implementation of the discussion method in Qur'an and Hadith learning and its implications for the learning activeness of eighth-grade students at MTs Nurul Anwar, Sumenep. It employed a qualitative case study using observation, interviews with the principal, the teacher, and students, and documentation, with interactive analysis and triangulation. The discussion was implemented through planning, teacher-led question-and-answer sessions on previous material, and follow-up through summaries and assessment, without group structures or student rebuttals. Students prepared before class, reviewed earlier material, and became more willing to speak, but their answers largely reproduced the textbook, participation was uneven, and sanctions caused embarrassment. The findings suggest that the practice functions as recitation rather than dialogue, requiring a shift towards authentic questions and a supportive classroom climate.
