Abstract


Islamic Education Technology (TEI) emerged as a breakthrough to stimulate children's development with an approach that is in accordance with Islamic values. This study aims to analyze the role of Islamic Educational Technology (TEI) in stimulating early childhood development. The method used is a systematic literature review, data collected through an in-depth review of journal articles, books, and other relevant scientific publications, published between 2019 and 2024. Data analysis was carried out thematically. The results of the study show that TEI plays a significant role in stimulating: (1) improving cognitive understanding of basic Islamic concepts; (2) language development through video stories of the prophet that enrich vocabulary; (3) social-emotional development through educational games with cooperative values; and (4) spiritual-moral development through animation of moral formation. The implementation of TEI faces challenges in the form of limited quality content, excessive screen time, and the need for parental assistance. This study recommends the development of local culture-based TEI by involving religious experts and children's education.
