Learning Islamic Cultural History Using The Problem-Posing Model

Abstract

The Islamic world has a long history, from the prophet Adam to the present day, in line with the development of the times. This study aims to examine in depth the Problem Posing learning model and its application in Islamic Cultural History learning. The focus of the study covers four main aspects, namely: (i) understanding the meaning of the Problem Posing learning model, (ii) identifying the steps for applying the model, (iii) analyzing its strengths and weaknesses, and (iv) evaluating the relevance and effectiveness of applying the Problem Posing model in Islamic Cultural History lessons. The research used a qualitative method with a library research approach that relied on various scientific literature sources such as books, journals, and relevant research articles. The Problem Posing model is seen as a constructivist approach that encourages students to actively think, ask questions, and find solutions to problems that are posed or discovered by themselves. The results of the study show that this model is able to increase student participation and understanding in Islamic Cultural History learning, although its application requires teachers to be prepared in designing appropriate learning scenarios and responding flexibly to classroom dynamics. Thus, the Problem Posing model can be an effective alternative in creating an interactive and meaningful learning process in Islamic Cultural History classes.
