CONFLICT RESOLUTION STRATEGY FOR ISLAMIC RELIGIOUS EDUCATION TEACHERS IN FOSTERING STUDENTS' SOCIAL INTERACTION IN RECITING LEARNING

Abstract

This study aims to examine the form of conflict between students, the factors that cause conflicts, and the strategies of PAI teachers in dealing with conflicts between students in reciting activities at the Ta'lim Riyadul Jannah Mosque. The research uses a qualitative approach with a case study type to understand in depth the phenomenon of conflict between students in a non-formal education environment. The subject of the research is a PAI teacher. Data collection techniques are carried out through observation, interviews, and documentation. Data is analyzed using the stages of data collection, data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawn. The validity of the data is carried out through credibility, transferability, dependability, and confirmability. The results of the study show that conflicts between students appear in various forms such as excessive joking, mocking each other, quarreling, lack of attention to teachers, and other unconducive behaviors during learning. The factors that cause conflict are influenced by the low ability of students to control emotions and behaviors, lack of optimal classroom management, the use of monotonous learning methods, and learning environment conditions that do not support students' learning comfort. In dealing with these conflicts, PAI teachers apply strategies in the form of giving direct reprimands and advice, separating students who quarrel, taking a religious approach through instilling Islamic values, and collaborating with other teachers in supervising students during learning activities. This research contributes to creating a conducive learning atmosphere through a sustainable coaching approach.
