Abstrak

This study aims to describe the implementation of the madrasah research program and analyze its implications for student academic achievement in the Society  5.0 era at MAN 2 Kudus. This study employs a qualitative approach with a case study design. Data collection techniques include observations of learning activities and student research activities, interviews with the madrasah principal, research supervisors, and students, as well as analysis of supporting documents. The results indicate that the implementation of the madrasah research program is carried out systematically through early introduction to research, integration of research materials into the curriculum, gradual and continuous guidance on scientific work, the establishment of research fields aligned with students’ interests, and collaboration with external research institutions. The program’s impact on student academic achievement is evident in improvements in critical thinking, analytical skills, academic literacy, and scientific communication skills. The success of the program’s implementation is supported by the competence of research mentors, the availability of facilities and infrastructure, and institutional commitment to fostering a conducive academic culture. However, several challenges were encountered, including variations in students’ academic abilities, limited mentoring time, uneven mentor competencies, and limited access to external resources. Thus, the implementation of the research madrasah program has significant implications for improving student academic achievement and is relevant to the demands for competency development in the Society  5.0 era.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan implementasi program madrasah riset dan menganalisis implikasinya terhadap prestasi belajar siswa pada era Society  5.0 di MAN 2 Kudus. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan desain studi kasus. Teknik pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui observasi terhadap kegiatan pembelajaran dan aktivitas riset siswa, wawancara dengan kepala madrasah, guru pembina riset, dan siswa, serta analisis dokumen pendukung. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa implementasi program madrasah riset dilaksanakan secara sistematis melalui pengenalan riset sejak dini, integrasi materi riset dalam pembelajaran intrakurikuler, pembinaan karya ilmiah secara bertahap dan berkelanjutan, pembentukan bidang-bidang riset sesuai minat siswa, serta kolaborasi dengan lembaga riset eksternal. Implikasi program tersebut terhadap prestasi belajar siswa terlihat pada peningkatan kemampuan berpikir kritis, keterampilan analitis, literasi akademik, serta kemampuan komunikasi ilmiah. Keberhasilan implementasi program didukung oleh kompetensi guru pembimbing riset, ketersediaan sarana dan prasarana, serta komitmen kelembagaan dalam membangun budaya akademik yang kondusif. Namun demikian, terdapat beberapa tantangan yang dihadapi, antara lain perbedaan kemampuan akademik siswa, keterbatasan waktu pembinaan, ketidakmerataan kompetensi pembimbing, serta keterbatasan akses terhadap sumber daya eksternal. Dengan demikian, implementasi program madrasah riset memiliki implikasi signifikan dalam meningkatkan prestasi belajar siswa serta relevan dengan tuntutan pengembangan kompetensi pada era Society  5.0.
