The learning model in Islamic Religious Education for class XI 7 at SMAN 1 Palangka Raya is less effective due to the boring lecture method, resulting in low student participation and learning outcomes. This research aims to determine the motivation for learning Islamic Religious Education (PAI) and analyze the application of the ARCS model (Attention, Relevance, Confidence, Satisfaction) in PAI learning at SMAN 1 Palangka Raya through the Classroom Action Research (CAR) method, which is conducted in two cycles that include the stages of planning, implementation, observation, and reflection. The subjects in this study were 31 students from class XI 7 at SMA Negeri 1 Palangka Raya, consisting of 11 male students and 20 female students.
