Penerapan Metode Drill dalam Meningkatkan Hafalan Al-Qur'an di MI Tahfidz Jalaluddin Arrumi Jember

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of applying the drill method in improving Quran memorization at MI Tahfidz Jalaluddin Arrumi Jember. The research employs the Classroom Action Research (CAR) method using the Kemmis and McTaggart model, which consists of four stages in each cycle: planning, implementation, observation, and reflection. The research subjects are students participating in the tahfidz program at the madrasa. Data were collected through observations, memorization tests, interviews with tahfidz teachers, and questionnaires given to students. The results show that the drill method significantly enhances students' memorization abilities. The memorization test results indicate an increase in the number of verses memorized more fluently and accurately after implementing the drill method. Observations also revealed that students became more disciplined and motivated in their Quran memorization. Interviews with tahfidz teachers and student questionnaires revealed that the drill method helps improve memorization retention and builds a structured habit of repetition. Thus, the implementation of the drill method has proven effective in enhancing students' Quran memorization quality. This study recommends that the drill method be consistently applied in tahfidz programs to achieve optimal memorization results.
