About
Bambang Samsul Arifin is an emerging scholar in Islamic education, with a focused interest in the intersection of pedagogy, character development, and digital technology. His most cited work, a 2023 study, investigates how Islamic schools integrate technology to foster character education. By comparing two distinct institutional approaches—extracurricular programs at MAN 1 Darussalam Ciamis and curriculum-embedded digital literacy at SMA Islam 5 Al-Azhar Cirebon—Arifin provides a nuanced, comparative analysis of how traditional Islamic values can be adapted for the digital age. This research contributes to the growing discourse on modernizing religious education without compromising its foundational ethics. While his citation count is currently modest, reflecting his early career stage, his work addresses a critical and timely need: preparing students for a technology-driven world while instilling strong moral character. Arifin’s research is particularly valuable for educators and policymakers seeking practical models for integrating digital tools into Islamic curricula. As the demand for relevant, tech-savvy religious education grows, Arifin’s comparative case study offers a foundational blueprint for future inquiry and implementation in similar contexts.
