Abstract

This study was motivated by the limited use of interctive learning media capable of increasing students’ interest and engagement in Fiqh learning. The urgency of this research lies in the need for digital media innovation that can create an engaging and effective learning atmosphere to improve learning outcomes. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of using Educaplay on the learning outcomes of eighth-grade students at MTs Nurul Falah. This research employed a quasi-experimental method with a pretest-posttest control group design. The subjects consisted of two classes: the experimental class, which used Educaplay, and the control class, which used conventional learning methods. Data were collected through pretest and posttest assessments, then analyzed using normality and homogeneity tests, paired t-test, simple linear regression, and N-Gain calculation. The results showed that the use of Educaplay had a significant effect on improving students’ learning outcomes, with a significance value of 0.000 and an average N-Gain score of 0.5733 (medium–high category) in the experimental class, compared to 0.1150 (low category) in the control class. In conclusion, Educaplay is effective for Fiqh learning and contributes to the development of innovative digital learning strategies in madrasahs to enhance the quality of teaching and learning outcomes.
