Abstrak

This research is motivated by the increasing global environmental crisis and low ecological awareness among students, which demands a more meaningful and sustainable educational approach. Natural and Social Sciences (IPAS) education has great potential as a vehicle for fostering scientific understanding as well as moral values ​​in preserving the environment. The purpose of this study is to analyze the forms and models of integration of IPAS with Islamic values, their implementation in learning, and their impact on the formation of student character. This study uses a qualitative approach with a literature study method through analysis of scientific literature, journals, and documents related to the integration of science education and Islamic values. Data were analyzed using content analysis techniques with the stages of reduction, categorization, and drawing conclusions. The results show that the implementation is evident in lesson plans (RPP), observation activities, and reflection on spiritual values. This integration has been proven to be able to foster ecological characters such as environmental care, energy conservation, and maintaining cleanliness, as well as spiritual characters such as gratitude, awareness of the greatness of God, and moral responsibility towards His creation. In conclusion, the integration of IPAS and Islamic values ​​effectively fosters ecological and spiritual awareness in students and supports the realization of sustainable education based on Islamic values.
