Main Article Content
Abstract
: Low student engagement in Islamic Religious Education (PAI) learning, both online and offline, is a challenge that has an impact on learning effectiveness. This study aims to examine how the use of a Learning Management System (LMS) can increase student engagement in PAI learning. The formulation of the problem raised is how the role of LMS, especially Google Classroom, in overcoming low student participation and increasing learning effectiveness. This study uses a literature review method by analyzing relevant national and international scientific articles published in the 2022–2024 period. Data analysis was carried out thematically based on five main themes, namely the definition of LMS, the concept of student engagement, the role of LMS, implementation of LMS in PAI, and challenges and recommendations. The results of the study show that LMS can increase student engagement cognitively, affectively, and behaviorally through interactive features such as discussion forums, digital assignments, and direct feedback. However, the success of implementation depends on the readiness of educators, technological support, and student adaptation to digital learning. This study recommends strategic integration of LMS in PAI learning to create a more inclusive and responsive learning experience to student needs.
