Islamic Education in the Digital Era at Pekalongan Batik Home Industry Family's

Abstract

Pekalongan is known as the city of batik because it is one of the largest batik producing centers in Java. In addition, Pekalongan is also called the city of santri because it has more than 100 Islamic boarding schools scattered in every region of Pekalongan. Indirectly, the people of Pekalongan are considered to have a fairly high level of spirituality. Therefore, this study will examine the practice of Islamic religious education in the digital era in Pekalongan batik home industry families. This research is included in qualitative research through a case study approach. Data collection techniques used in-depth interviews and documentation. The resource persons in this research are several batik home industry families located in the center of the batik home industry, namely Buaran District, Pekalongan Regency. Data analysis was carried out through three stages, namely data reduction, data presentation, conclusion drawing and verification. The results of this study show that parents in Pekalongan batik home industry families have a fairly good understanding of digital technology, especially for product marketing purposes. In addition, they have a well-known religious neighborhood. With the limited time parents have, the process of Islamic religious education in the family applies a system of supervision and restrictions on the use of smartphones in children. In addition, parents utilize digital technology to teach religious values such as watching Islamic videos on the Youtube application. One of the toughest challenges in the use of digitalization for Islamic religious education in the Pekalongan batik home industry family is the weakening quality of relationships between family members.
