| Popis: | This action research is a product of a reflection on the problems of weak students in their studies of Tawhid, particularly in the topic of attributes of Allah Ta'ala. It was discovered that students are weak in remembering these attributes and are often confused by the dalil aqli (proof by reasoning) and dalil naqli (proof by revelation) of the attributes. Students are found to have weak memory of dalil naqli (proof by revelation); and are unable to explain and elaborate on dalil aqli (proof by reasoning). The purpose of this study is to improve students' knowledge in their studies of Tawhid through the application of game techniques, memory aid 'The link' and mind maps. Data on student problems were gathered through questionnaires, interviews and a pre-test. Researchers have planned activities to remediate the problems that students face, using the approach of 'Learning through Games'- using a token system to help memorisation-as well as the use of researcher-designed mind maps. This is to facilitate memorisation, to motivate and to impart a sense of fun in teaching and learning. A memory aid, 'The Link", is also introduced to help students summarize and remember detailed information. Based on the actions taken, observations and reflection on the planned activities as well as activities that have been implemented, it can be said that these steps are able to improve students' memorisation and mastery of the topic of attributes of Allah and improve their performance in the post-test. |
