Transformation of Islamic Religious Education Learning from Teacher-Centered to Student-Centered through E-Learning-Based Learning Design

Abstract

Religious Education (IRE) is known in Indonesia as Pendidikan Agama Islam (PAI) learning is still dominated by a teacher-centered approach, resulting in low student engagement and suboptimal religious literacy in the digital era characterized by a rapid flow of information. This condition highlights the urgency of developing innovative instructional designs that effectively integrate technology into the learning process. Therefore, this study aims to analyze how e-learning-based instructional design can transform PAI learning into a student-centered approach. This study uses a qualitative approach with library research methods through a search of relevant scientific literature in the Google Scholar, Scopus, and Dimensions databases. Literature was selected based on its relevance to the research topic and analyzed using content analysis techniques. These findings indicate that e-learning-based instructional design, especially through blended learning models, significantly increases active, interactive, and reflective student engagement. Furthermore, well-integrated instructional design contributes to improved religious literacy, including students' ability to understand, analyze, and apply Islamic values ​​in contextual situations. However, its effectiveness is highly dependent on the quality of the instructional design, teacher competence, and students' readiness for independent learning. In conclusion, e-learning-based instructional design serves as a strategic solution to develop adaptive, critical, and meaningful PAI learning in the digital era.
