Abstract

This research was conducted to introduce innovative learning methods and keep up with the times, namely by using Virtual Reality (VR) as a learning medium in the subject of fiqh, Hajj pilgrimage material. VR is a computer-based technology that combines input and output devices so that users can interact directly with the virtual environment. VR is considered to be able to help students understand better during the learning process. This is because VR displays a visualization that seems to be seen by the user, such as a simulation of the pilgrimage implementation material. The subjects of this study were students of class X IPS 2 MAN Kotawaringin Timur. The students who used VR for the first time watching the procedures for the haj pilgrimage using VR seemed to be present and witnessed the Hajj pilgrimage at the Grand Mosque. Even feel the compassion when it seems to see the Kakbah up close. So that students not only know and understand the procedures for the pilgrimage, but also present a close feeling and see directly the Kakbah.
