Metode Pembelajaran INTRODUCTION Pesantren (Islamic Boarding Schoo.
is one type of religious education institutions in Indonesia.
This Islamic educational institution has a strong cultural root in Indonesian community.
Therefore, the existence of pesantren in Indonesia has a great influence for the surrounding community where pesantren exists.
Speaking of religious education, the influence of pesantren is unquestionable because its establishment was indeed prepared to educate and spread Islamic teachings to the public (Wahyoetomo, 1.
The presence of pesantren in the community has not only serves as an educational institution but also as a religious institution.
During the colonial period, it was the most closely related educational institution to the people.
This is to Taufik Abdillah Syukur say that pesantren served Islamic educational institution which was familiar for people especially those with low- income families (Mastuhu, 1.
Pesantren, seen from its founding objectives, include: elevating the morale and spirit of the santri, respecting spiritual values and human values, teaching honesty, and preparing santri for a simple life.
Pesantren, according to Zamaksyari Dhofir .
Bahri .
does not teach the struggle for power, money and prestige that are of a regular nature.
The mission of pesantren is devotion to God as the final destination.
Judging from the dimensions of the pesantren's purpose, people are born with high moral standards, polite, honest, and not However, lately, there has been a public stigma about the existence of pesantren as an institution that teaches religious radicalism to students.
The negative stigma of the community towards pesantren is reinforced by the statement of Jusuf Kalla.
Vice President of the Republic of Indonesia, that pesantren need to be closely monitored.
Jusuf Kalla believes that radicalism, one of the indicators of the Bali bombing, was allegedly committed by santri or former santri.
(Ridwan, 2019.
Irsyadunnas, 2.
Some pesantren institutions are deemed as the educational institutions which support the hard-line understanding in realizing their religious teachings and they act intolerant.
In the context of radicalism, the actors are the one who develop discourse of radicalism and who are mostly educated from pesantren institutions and constantly promote radicalism.
In response to this, the society have expressed their concern and perceived that pesantren insttutions as a place of education for potential terrorists.
The issue of radicalism which are closely linked to pesantren institutions has made the image of pesantren worse (Nuhrison, 2010.
(Ferdian & Mustofa, 2.
Pesantren in this era has been extensively penetrated and bombarded by the advance of information and communication technology.
They are also challenged socio-economically to play a role in the society especially those institutions that are located in and near the capital city of Jakarta.
They are challenged both to prove that they are not radicalism supporter and to provide the best response to deal with religious radicalism.
They should uphold the motto to maintain good old ways and to adopt and develop new ways that are better (Mahfudh.
They have many options to tackle religious radicalism and one of them is to transform teaching methods to suit their students to tackle religious radicalism.
Several studies on the issue of radicalism among pesantren have been investigated.

Radicalism has also been associated with several factors.
Education culture in pesantren can be associated with radicalism (Malik et.

In the same vein, pesantren education pattern may contribute to radicalism.
Pesantren in this context are no longer agents of change, but purify (Mursalin & Kair, 2.

Descriptive research is carried out with the main objective, namely to systematically describe the facts and characteristics of the object or subject being studied appropriately (Sukardi, 2.
Data were collected using observation, documentation, and focus group discussion (FGD).
The data were analyzed through some steps: reduction, categorization and interpretation.
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
Religious Radicalism Radicalism comes from the word AuradicalAy, which means: .
Overall, all-out, radical .
Very strongly demands changes .
aws, government, and so o.
Advance in thinking and acting.
It can also mean: .
Radical ideology or flow in politics.
Understanding or flow who wants social or political change or renewal in a hard or drastic way.
The extreme attitude in a political school.
Meanwhile, the 'ism' affix itself has the meaning of an understanding or belief (Poerwadarminta, 2.
According to (Azra, 2.
, radicalism is the attitude of the soul that leads to actions aimed at weakening and changing the established political order and usually using violence and replacing it with a new system (Azra & AlJauhari, 1.
The word religion refers to "a system that regulates the rules of faith .
and worship of Almighty God and the rules relating to the association between humans, as well as humans on the environment" (Poerwadarminta, 2.
Religious radicalism as a perspective, ideals, and attitudes can be individual and group.
Individual religious radicalism is common in every religion to fully believe in the teachings of his religion.
However, if religious radicalism is group in nature, it is not uncommon to become an ideology that perpetrates violence and resistance (Laksono, 2.
Radical groups have several characteristics, according to Yusuf QarsAw, among others.
First, it often claims a single truth and misleads other groups who disagree.
Second, radicalism complicates the religion of Islam which is actually a mild religion, by considering the Sunnah worship as if it is obligatory and makrh as if it is haram.
Third, radical groups are mostly excessive in practicing Fourth, radical group usually are rude in interaction, loud in speaking and emotional in Fifth, radical groups usually express prejudice toward others outside their group.
Sixth, it is easy to disbelieve others who have different opinions (Purwaningrum, 2.
Yusuf QarsAw argues that radicalism is caused by a number of factors: First, religious knowledge that is halfway through a doctrinal learning process.
Second, it is literal in the understanding of religious texts so that radical people only understand Islam from their surface not the essence.
They have limited insight into the essence of religion.
Third, indulging in secondary issues such as moving your fingers during tasyahud, extending the beard, and lifting the pants while forgetting the primary problems.
Fourth, it is excessive to ban many things that burden the people.
Fifth, their perspective are so weak in historical and sociological insights so that their fatwa often contradict the well-being of the people, common sense, and spirit of the times.
Sixth, radicalism rarely appears in response to other forms of radicalism such as radical secularist attitudes that reject religion.
Seventh, they usually fight against social, economic, and political injustice at the heart of society ( QarsAw, 2.
Teaching Method Etymologically the word method comes from Greek namely meta and hodos.
Meta means through and hodos means way or way (Ramayulis, 2008.
In Arabic it is known as al-tharyq, meaning road.
The road is something that is traversed to get to its destination (Nizar & Hasibuan, 2.
The method refers to an orderly method used to carry out a job to be achieved by what is desired or systemic work methods to facilitate the implementation of an To achieve what has been determined, someone has to achieve a certain goal, both in Vol.

The word teaching can be interpreted as an effort to provide cognitive insight to students to foster affective and psychomotor abilities in students.
Teaching is more a tool to enrich insight and foster true appreciation and practice.
A true and solid appreciation and experience must be accompanied by correct understanding and insight and generated through teaching activities.
This will happen if the teaching is done correctly, effectively and efficiently, and is aimed not solely at understanding a concept or theory, but is continued by living and practising it (Nata, 2.
Teaching methods are the methods used by teachers in establishing relationships with students during the learning process.
Thus, the teaching method is a tool to create a learning process.
This is in line with Edgar Bruce Wesley's who states that the teaching method is a series of directed activities for teachers that cause the learning process to occur in students, or it is a process whose implementation is perfect so as to produce a learning process, or it is a way by which teaching becomes memorable (Ramayulis, 2.
In general, learning methods applied in pesantren include two aspects, namely: first, the traditional method, namely the learning method that is held according to the custom that has long been implemented at the pesantren or can also be called the original learning method .
Second, modern learning methods, namely the learning methods resulting from the renewal of the pesantren by incorporating methods that develop in modern society, although not followed by implementing a modern system, such as the school system or Multicultural education needs to be applied in pesantren education as an effort to provide understanding to students that they must be respectful of each different beliefs and even each cultural character with each other in order to create a harmonious atmosphere and tolerance in the education system in Indonesia .
l-Hamdani, 2.
To achieve this, the teacher must be introduced to several teaching methods, including .
the method of contribution, in the application of this method students are invited to participate in understanding and appreciating other cultures.
Namely, among others, by involving students to choose joint reading books, doing joint activities, appreciating religious and cultural events contained in social life.
enrichment method, this method enriches the curriculum with literature from or about people with different cultures and religions.
For example, by inviting students to assess or test and then appreciate the perspective of the original Sundanese community about marriage.
the transformative method, this method is used to encourage students to understand issues and problems from several ethnic and religious perspectives.
For example, discussing the concept of halal food from certain religions or cultures that have the potential to cause conflict in the community.
This method requires students to process critical thinking and make the principle of diversity as their basic premise.
The method of decision making and social action, this method integrates the method of transformation with real activities in the community, which in turn can stimulate social Students are not only required to understand and discuss social issues but also to do something important in this regard.
For example, after discussing conflicts over the construction of places of worship, students send letters to the local government or the mass media to express their opinions on related issues and government policies (CummingMcCann, 2.
Pondok Pesantren The term pesantren comes from the word AusantriAy, where the word AusantriAy means students in Javanese.
The term pondok comes from fundyq, which means lodging.
Specifically, in Aceh, pesantren is also called the dayah.
In west Sumatra, it is known as surau.

Pesantren is also defined as students.
Its word comes from Authe cantrikAy word (Sanskrit, or maybe Javanes.
which means people who always follow the teacher, which is then developed in a boarding system called Pawiyatan.
The term students also exist in Tamil, which means the teacher recites.
C Berg argues that the term comes from the term Shastri, which in Indian means a person who knows the sacred books of Hinduism or a scholar of Hindu Sometimes it is also considered a combination of the word AusaintAy .
ood huma.
with the syllable AutraAy .
ike helpin.
so that the word pesantren can mean a place of good human education (Dhofier, 1.
In pesantren, students stay together and study under the guidance of the teacher and they have a dormitory to stay.
They are in a complex that provides a mosque for worship, space for learning, and other religious activities.
The complex is surrounded by a wall to be able to oversee the entry and exit of students by applicable regulations.
Pesantren, according to the basic understanding, is a place of learning for students, while pondok means home or The kiai taught Islamic religious knowledge to students based on books written in Arabic by the Middle Ages Ulama.

C Responded to radicalism with education and training for students and the entire organization of pesantren by monitoring them Based on the data collected in this study, the eight pesantren in West Java used the education system that can be categorized into two types.
First, the classical education featured elaborated curriculum .
combination of classic and modern curriculu.
Second, classical education which maintains a classical educational system.
These pesantren can be categorized as classical pesantren instituions that retained the old Islamic book references .
Speaking of religious education, these institutions have their influence which are unquestionable because they educate and spread Islamic teachings to the public (Wahyoetomo, 1.
Without their existence, it is not easy for the society to access Islamic knowledge.
However, the pesantren instituions in this study had modified their learning methods and strategies that were relevant to their santri characteristics.
They should uphold the motto to maintain good old ways and to adopt and develop new ways that are better (Mahfudh, 1.
They have many options to tackle religious radicalism and one of them is to transform teaching methods to suit their students to tackle religious radicalism.
Pesantren are not immune in the context of the spread of religious radicalism, as well as an antidote to the understanding of radical Islamic religion.
Based on previous studies Pesantren had the opportunity to turn into radical propagators.
The indication could be seen from the emergence of several Islamic educational institutions that were promoted by several radical Islamic-community based organizations.
The issue of radicalism which are closely linked to pesantren institutions has made the image of pesantren worse (Nuhrison, 2.
Another study has also reported on the potential of pesantren for radicalism (Jahroni, 2.
In addition, a study also reported how salafiyah influenced studentsAo perception on radicalism (Taufiq & Kholilur, n.
This is not a positive circumstance for pesantren institutions in general.
Bad image of pesantren as a source of radicalism might discourage pesantren to develop its existence in the society.
The vast majority of pesantren in Indonesia fall into the category of non-radical A study conducted by MaAoarif .

No.
December 2019 M/1441 H Teaching Methods in A oriented towards transformative religious understanding.
This can be seen from the orientation and learning methods applied in pesantren schools.
The learning method that has been administered in the eight pesantren institutions in West Java had met the criteria stated by Edgar Bruce Wesley's theory.
The theory states that the teaching method is a series of activities directed by the teacher to tailor learning process which is convenient for students.
It also implies that a process whose implementation is perfect to produce a learning process, or is a way by which teaching becomes memorable on the part of students (Nizar & Hasibuan, 2.
A teaching method used by teachers in Indonesia should establish relationships between teacher and students during the learning process (Ramayulis, 2.
Pesantren in this study had implemented several learning methods to implement learning plans in the form of practical activities.
In general, they applied cooperative learning.
This cooperative learning method was designed to develop academic learning outcomes and to nurture students' social skills.
Pesantren Darul Muttaqien had organized fatu al kutub (Islamic traditional book reading comprehensio.
The practical learning activities were oriented towards studying classic books .

In other pesantren institutions, learning methods used was punishment by using a point This learning method was oriented to avoid violence in the provision of punishment.
Punishment in the context of education and learning must be educational in nature.
The method of punishment was applied at Pesantren Darul Muattaqien and Pesantren AlKarimiyah.
In implementing this method, each student was given 100 points as a starting If students had no points left, their parent were immediately invited to pesantren.
they violated again they could be excluded from pesasntren.
All eight pesantren instituions in this study had no longer resorted to violence acts such as slapping punishments on students to respect their human rights.
The maximum penalty for students was to send them r to parents.
Prior to this level of punishment, they were punished by cutting their hair into bald and punish them to stay under the sun.
Sorogan and bandongan or halaqah methods and dialogue or deliberation methods were still used in those pesantren institutions.
By using those teaching methods, students were expected to tackle religious radicalism.
The pesantren institutions also, in part, retained bandongan, sorogan and memorization However, the classical learning methods were elaborated by explaining the material The application of this learning method was also carried out in regions in Central Java according to the study conducted by Ramadhan .
like Pesantren Al-Hikmah.
Pesantren Benda.
Brebes.
Pesantren Al-Hikmah and Amsilati were traditional pesantren institutions which in their learning promoted inclusivism.
These pesantren also introduced multiculturalism through the method of habituation and example.
It reported that in order to prevent radicalism in pesantren, learning should be carried out through field practice.
The students live in with the community for three days and three nights and the program were conducted regularly.
This program succeeded in minimizing radicalism understandings among the santri.
Based on the findings of this study, pesantren institutions are generally divided into two, classical and non-classical.
These pesantren institions applied various Islamic traditional books and they were combined with modern lessons .

This requires a combination of methods, not single methods so that students are provided with a variety of non-monolithic knowledge.

by studying various books from various schools of thought.
Learning by introducing various schools of thought could minimize.
This study found that pesantren institions had employed teaching methods that were considered appropriate to tackle religious radicalism.
This finding is in line with the previous studies conducted by researchers.
Studies have reported the effort and program applied by pesantren to fight radicalism (Alfanani, 2017.
Bahri, 2.
Other researchers have also investigated pesantren effort to fight radicalism in several regions: Pesantren in Lampung (Budi & Chintya, 2.
Pesantren in Mojokerto (Laksono, 2.
In Kediri (Ferdian & Mustofa, 2.
and in northern coast area of Java (Ridlwan, 2.
They have one thing in common in reporting effort of pesantren to tackle religious radicalism.
In addition to teaching methods applied in pesantren, multicultural education needs to be applied in pesantren education.
This may serve as an effort to provide understanding to students that they must be respectful of each different beliefs and even each cultural character with each other in order to create a harmonious atmosphere and tolerance in the education system in Indonesia (Hamdani, 2.
This need to be nurtured and students are required to be trained on multicultural education so they can achieve the level and skill of multicultural CONCLUSION This study was aimed at investigating teaching methods applied in pesantren to tackle religious It investigated several pesantren institutitons in West Java.
It also explored the way teaching method applied in the pesantren.
Based on the findings and analysis of this study, some conclusion can be drawn.
This study found that pesantren institutions have their effort to tackle religious There were many methods applied by pesantren.
Those methods include:
cooperative learning or teaching methods designed to educate group cooperation.
This teaching method is designed to achieve academic learning achievement.
In addition, this teaching method was also effective for developing studentsAo social skills.
It was expected that they were able to respect for the opinions of others and discourage the culture of violence.
This effort can be viewed as a best way to tackle religious radicalism among students in pesantren institutions.
Some suggestions are made for several parties.
Teachers should master the comparative sciences and to continue practice using cooperative learning methods to develop students' social skills and encourage to the respect the opinions of others so that it becomes a powerful way of tackling religious radicalism in students.
The leaders of pesantren should focus on the standard process including the socialization of the objectives and curriculum of the pesantren, holding regular teacher training on cooperative teaching methods to combat religious The Government of the Republic of Indonesia should focus on improving the teaching profession by providing adequate budget allocations for teacher training related to cooperative teaching methods in combating religious radicalism.
