PENGARUH PEMBELAJARAN PENDIDIKAN AGAMA ISLAM TERHADAP SIKAP PEDULI LINGKUNGAN (Studi Survei di SDN Baru 02 Jakarta Timur)

Abstract

This study was motivated by the still low level of environmental care attitude among students, which is reflected in the habit of littering, a lack of concern for the cleanliness of the school environment, and low student understanding of the benefits of waste management, even though Islamic Religious Education (PAI) has taught the values of cleanliness, responsibility, and the prohibition of causing damage on earth. This condition shows a gap between religious understanding and the actual attitude of students in protecting the environment, so this study aims to determine the effect of PAI learning on students' environmental care attitude. This study used a quantitative approach with a correlational research type and a cross-sectional design. The population of the study was all sixth-grade students of SDN Baru 02 East Jakarta in the 2026/2027 academic year, totaling 54 people, and all of them were used as the sample through saturated sampling technique. Data were collected through a questionnaire and analyzed using the Product Moment correlation test. The results showed a correlation coefficient (rxy) of 0.866 with a significance value of 0.000 < 0.05, which falls into the very strong relationship category. The coefficient of determination (R Square) of 0.749 indicates that PAI learning contributes 74.9% to students' environmental care attitude, while the remaining 25.1% is influenced by other factors outside this study. Thus, the alternative hypothesis (Ha) is accepted and the null hypothesis (H0) is rejected. It can be concluded that there is a positive and significant effect of Islamic Religious Education learning on the environmental care attitude of sixth-grade students at SDN Baru 02 East Jakarta, so that PAI learning needs to be continuously optimized as an effort to build ecological awareness and noble character of students in preserving the environment.
