Kajian ini bertujuan menilai keberkesanan pendekatan Pembelajaran Quantum terhadap penguasaan Matematik pelajar Sekolah Menengah Agama Tahfiz serta meneliti implikasinya terhadap aspek motivasi dan kefahaman konseptual pelajar. Pelaksanaan kajian ini didorong oleh kebimbangan terhadap prestasi Matematik pelajar Malaysia yang masih berada di bawah penanda aras antarabangsa, di samping cabaran khusus pelajar tahfiz yang perlu mengimbangi tuntutan akademik dan hafazan al-Quran. Kajian ini menggunakan reka bentuk kuasi-eksperimen dengan ujian pra dan pasca yang melibatkan kumpulan rawatan dan kumpulan kawalan tidak setara. Seramai 100 orang pelajar Tingkatan Dua dari dua buah Sekolah Menengah Agama Tahfiz di negeri Kedah terlibat sebagai responden. Kumpulan rawatan mengikuti pengajaran berasaskan Pembelajaran Quantum selama lapan minggu, manakala kumpulan kawalan mengikuti kaedah pengajaran konvensional. Data kuantitatif dianalisis menggunakan Analisis Kovarians (ANCOVA) selepas memenuhi andaian normaliti dan homogeniti, manakala data kualitatif dianalisis secara tematik. Dapatan kajian menunjukkan terdapat perbezaan yang signifikan dalam penguasaan Matematik antara kumpulan rawatan dan kumpulan kawalan dengan saiz kesan yang besar. Analisis kualitatif pula mendapati bahawa penggunaan strategi multisensori, kolaboratif dan kontekstual meningkatkan motivasi, keyakinan serta kefahaman konsep Matematik pelajar. Secara keseluruhan, Pembelajaran Quantum didapati berkesan dan sesuai diaplikasikan dalam konteks sekolah agama tahfiz sebagai pendekatan pedagogi yang holistik dan bermakna.
This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the Quantum Learning approach on the Mathematics achievement of Tahfiz Islamic Secondary School students and to examine its implications on students’ motivation and conceptual understanding. The implementation of this study was driven by concerns over Malaysian students’ Mathematics performance, which remains below international benchmarks, as well as the specific challenges faced by Tahfiz students who must balance academic demands with Qur’anic memorization. This study employed a quasi-experimental design involving pre- and post-tests with non-equivalent treatment and control groups. A total of 100 Form Two students from two Tahfiz Islamic Secondary Schools in the state of Kedah participated as respondents. The treatment group received instruction based on the Quantum Learning approach for eight weeks, while the control group was taught using conventional teaching methods. Quantitative data were analyzed using Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) after meeting the assumptions of normality and homogeneity, whereas qualitative data were analyzed thematically. The findings revealed a significant difference in Mathematics achievement between the treatment and control groups, with a large effect size. Qualitative analysis further indicated that the use of multisensory, collaborative, and contextual strategies enhanced students’ motivation, confidence, and conceptual understanding in Mathematics. Overall, the study concludes that Quantum Learning is effective and suitable for application in Tahfiz Islamic school settings as a holistic and meaningful pedagogical approach.
