The data collected are using a variety of methods, such as observation techniques, interviews, and portfolios. Based on the findings and analysis, the Islamic religious education teachers’ ability in conducting action research increased. This is demonstrated by the following. 1) The percentage of PAI teachers engaged in CAR activities which was initially 55%, has improved to 88% after the last cycle.
