Abstract


This research aims to analyze the form of transformation of AIK Education through the innovation of the learning environment and the dynamization of its learning concepts so that it remains relevant in forming a generation with strong character, adaptive, and able to face the complexity of the times. This research uses a library research method with a qualitative approach. Data was obtained from a variety of literature sources, such as books, scientific articles, journals, and documents relevant to the research focus. The data analysis technique is carried out in a descriptive-qualitative manner through the stages of data reduction, categorization, interpretation, and drawing conclusions. The results of the study show that the transformation of AIK Education needs to be carried out through the integration of digital technology in the learning process, such as the use of hybrid learning models and online learning platforms, as well as the application of project-based participatory learning methods and the concept of Independent Learning. The transformation is directed to answer various global challenges, such as the digital divide, moral crisis, and changes in the character of students in the modern era, while still being based on Islamic values and Muhammadiyah ideology. This research provides a theoretical contribution by offering a perspective on the importance of dynamizing the concept of AIK Education through the integration of pedagogical innovations, digital technology, and strengthening Islamic values in the Muhammadiyah education system.
