Abstract

Teachers' creativity in developing learning media plays a crucial role in providing engaging, relevant, and effective learning experiences that benefit the learning process. However, there is still a lack of knowledge among Islamic Education (PAI) teachers regarding learning media, such as their limited mastery of software. The purpose of this research is to investigate and describe how teachers’ creativity is applied in developing learning media at SDN 7 Pemulutan Barat, as well as to identify and describe the supporting and inhibiting factors in the development of learning media at SDN 7 Pemulutan Barat. This study employs a qualitative descriptive approach (field research). The research method uses a qualitative approach with the theme "Creativity of PAI Teachers in Developing Learning Media at SDN 7 Pemulutan Barat" as the research object, involving PAI teachers, teacher leaders (guru penggerak), and students as respondents. Data collection techniques include observation, interviews, and documentation, while data analysis techniques involve data reduction, data presentation, and data verification.
