This paper explores the implications of technology-driven methods for teaching the Islamic Studies curriculum in the preparation of trainee teachers. The study examines the impact of incorporating digital methods such as digital storytelling, virtual field trips, simulations, and digital drills and practice in teaching specific topics in Islamic Studies. These methods enhance learner-centered approaches, critical thinking, and student engagement. Additionally, the paper addresses the challenges and opportunities associated with implementing these techniques.
