Abstract

This qualitative study aims to conduct a comparative analysis of learning experiences, engagement levels, and conceptual understanding in Sociology between classrooms implementing Game-Based Learning (GBL) and those utilizing conventional methods. The primary issue addressing this focus was low student engagement and physical fatigue due to demanding Islamic boarding school routines. A qualitative descriptive approach with a case study method was employed. Informants were selected using purposive sampling, involving eleventh-grade students at MA Al-Ma'arif Singosari and the Sociology teacher. Data were gathered through in-depth interviews, classroom observations, and field notes, validated by technique and source triangulation. The results indicated that in conventional classrooms, students tended to experience cognitive boredom and perceived sociology merely as theoretical memorization. Conversely, in the GBL-based classroom, interactive group mechanics successfully visualized abstract social theories into concrete contexts, neutralized student fatigue through healthy competition, and boosted confidence. This study concludes that the GBL method provides a more emancipatory, interactive, and meaningful learning ecosystem compared to conventional methods.
