ABSTRAK
Pendidikan adalah proses seumur hidup. Ini dimulai sejak kita dilahirkan sampai kita meninggal.
Ditemui di masyarakat, pendidikan bisa terdiri dari berbagai bentuk; pendidikan formal, pendidikan
informal atau belajar dari pengalaman. Ini adalah sekumpulan informasi yang membuat seorang individu
menjadi manusia yang ikut berperan dalam menyelamatkan masa depan generasi muda.
Weekend Madrasah pada dasarnya adalah sebuah sistem pendidikan untuk menyelamatkan
masyarakat Muslim Filipina dan melestarikan tradisi dan budaya mereka dari pengaruh pendidikan
Barat. Intelektual Muslim di Filipina telah menunjukkan ambisi dan kepedulian mereka untuk
mentransformasi Madrasah Tradisional menjadi pendidikan Islam secara formal sebagai cara untuk
menyelamatkan individu Muslim dalam waktu dekat. Penelitian ini menarik karena karakteristiknya (1.)
Madrasah Comprehensive Development and Promotion program adalah sumbu dari penerapan
pendidikan dasar berbasis islam tradisional yang dilaksanakan setiap sabtu dan Minggu oleh masyarakat
di Kota Davao yang jumlah siswanya banyak (2.) Arabic Language and Islamic Values Education or ALIVE
program di bawah Departemen Pendidikan yang mengkoordinasi sekolah muslim nasional yang
menerapkan pendidikan dasar Islam. Hubungan kualitas pendidikan dasar Islam dengan tesis ini adalah
untuk memberikan informasi yang berkaitan dengan perbedaan utama antara dua program pendidikan
Islam yang telah diterapkan dengan sistematis dan terorganisir secara efektif.
Data dikumpulkan melalui pendekatan kualitatif yang terdiri dengan menganalisis dokumen
tertulis yang tersedia, wawancara dengan kepala sekolah, guru yang terlibat, percakapan santai dengan
mahasiswa dan alumni, diskusi formal dan analisis peneliti untuk mengumpulkan urutan informasi.
Analisis ini diharapkan bisa digunakan untuk mengetahui pentingnya kurikulum terpadu, organisasi,
kurikulum dalam perspektif Islam dan pendekatan kontemporer yang menawarkan dampak yang telah
diharapkan oleh Program Pendidikan Dasar Islam. Tesis ini juga membuka kesempatan untuk memahami
kebutuhan pendidik Muslim tentang karakteristik kurikulum untuk menjadi lembaga yang efektif.
