Abstract:

“Islamic Religious Education plays a strategic role in shaping the spiritual and moral character of students. However, challenges such as low literacy levels and the lack of relevance of educational materials to students’ lives often reduce their interest in learning, which negatively impacts their spiritual awareness. This study analyzes the implementation of Multiliteracy-based PAI using the TPACK approach at SMA Negeri 9 Yogyakarta to enhance students’ spiritual awareness. Through literature reviews and direct observations, the study found that integrating technology, teaching methods, and religious content within the TPACK framework creates a more interactive, contextual, and engaging learning experience. Strategies such as religious literacy programs, the use of educational applications, and social media have proven effective in overcoming the limitations of traditional methods by making learning more relevant and appealing. This approach not only strengthens students’ understanding of religious concepts but also significantly enhances their spiritual awareness. The study emphasizes the importance of incorporating the TPACK framework into the PAI curriculum, highlighting the role of teachers as creative facilitators who innovatively integrate technology with teaching methods. This ensures the relevance of religious education in the digital era while preparing students to face contemporary challenges with a strong foundation of spiritual insight.”
