MADRASAH CURRICULUM MANAGEMENT TO REALIZE THE INTEGRATION OF SCIENCE AND RELIGION

Abstract

This research is based by the existence of extreme (radical) religious views among society, especially teenagers. This extreme religious view is caused by narrow insight, and narrow insight is caused by a lack of integrative knowledge. This research aims to describe and analyze madrasah curriculum management to realize the integration of science and religion. The research was conducted at MTsN 3 Bandung and MTsN 1 Sumedang. This research is based on George Terry's management theory which divides management functions into planning, organizing, actuating, and controlling. This research is also based on the integrated-interconnected theory of M. Amin Abdullah. This research uses a qualitative approach and descriptive methods with observation, interview and documentation study techniques. The research results concluded that the management function had been carried out in the curriculum management of MTsN 3 Bandung and MTsN 1 Sumedang to realize the integration of science and religion. The obstacles are that management functions have not been carried out consistently, lack of facilities and infrastructure, limited human resources, and uneven community participation.
