INTRODUCTION
Education is a deliberate effort that can take the form of guidance, direction, issues (Darmawan et al., 2021).The aim is to prepare students to be able to contribute to future life and diverse environments appropriately.Education is organized within the framework of formal, non-formal and informal education systems, inside and outside school, which lasts throughout life with the aim of optimizing individual skills so that they can carry out their life roles well in the future.A person through education certainly obtains various knowledge and information (Arifin & Kurniawan, 2022).
The more information and knowledge a person obtains indicates that the person has undergone a high level of education.
Over time, receiving this information and knowledge can have a significant impact A lesson is said to be successful when the achievements achieved by students can be seen in general, along with positive changes in behavior (Mardikaningsih, 2014).An effective education system and appropriate PAI materials are key factors in achieving this goal (Majid, 2014).By aligning a comprehensive PAI curriculum, students are expected to not only gain theoretical knowledge about religious teachings, but also be able to internalize the moral and ethical values promoted by Islam (Anggreini, 2017).PAI is not just a transfer of knowledge, but also character formation (Assegaf, 2014) Therefore, research on PAI learning achievement is expected to provide insight into the extent of students' awareness of religious teachings and their impact on moral formation (Abdullah, 2007).According to Vanwynsberghe and Verdegem (2013), the role of social media is important considering that social media

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
The data collection process at MTs  show that the F-calculated value reached 99.387, with a significance level of 0.000.
Because this probability value is smaller than 0.05, it can be concluded that the Interaction and exposure to content on social media can shape students' perceptions, values, attitudes and morals.
Students have access to a variety of views, information and norms that can shape the way they see the world (Martin et al., 2018;Ummat & Retnowati, 2022).Therefore, the use of social media must be understood as a factor that can shape or even present challenges to students' morals and ethics (Kurniawan et al., 2022).In addition, content on social media often plays the role of a powerful socialization agent.
Awareness and knowledge of content on social media is also a key factor in shaping students' morals (Masnawati & Kurniawan, 2023).Students need to be trained to analyze, evaluate and understand the impact of every content they consume.This has a big impact on students' mindsets, values and ethics.Information presented via social media can influence students' perceptions and outlook on life, as well as give rise to a moral crisis due to excessive exposure to certain content.Therefore, research on students' use of social media is important to understand the extent to which social media influences their morals and how educational institutions can provide effective guidance (Suwahyu, guide students to face the moral crisis in this digital era, creating a generation that is not only intellectually intelligent but also has noble morals to face the dynamics of an everevolving era.METHOD This research adopts a quantitative research design approach, focusing on collecting and analyzing number-based data to explore the influence of Islamic Religious Education learning achievement variables and the use of social media on students' moral behavior.With the aim of gaining a statistical understanding of the phenomenon under study, this research will use a structured questionnaire to collect data on social media use, and scales or observations to measure students' moral behavior.This research focuses on a population of 75 Miftahiyah Yasi Madrasah Tsanawiyah (MTS) students in Bangkalan.This population consists of students at grade VII education level.To achieve an accurate representation of the population, the research will use a random sample selection method, with a total of 35 students as respondents.The random sample selection approach is expected to reflect the diversity and characteristics of the population as a whole, so that the research results can be considered more representative for class VII at MTS Miftahiyah Yasi Bangkalan.The following is an explanation of each research variable involved: 1. PAI learning achievement (X.1) can be defined as the level of achievement of students in recognizing, understanding, appreciating and believing in the teachings of the Islamic religion, as well as applying the values of piety and noble character in accordance with the main guidelines contained in the holy book Al-Qur'an and Hadith (Muhaimin, 2001).The constituent indicators are the introduction and interpretation of Islamic teachings, appreciation and faith, practice of worship, piety and noble character, introduction to Islamic history and culture, harmony between religious communities.2.Use of social media (X.2) is an internet medium that allows users to represent themselves and interact, collaborate, share, communicate with other users and form virtual social bonds(Agustiah et al., 2020).The indicator for the level of social media use uses three indicators according toKurniawan and Harti (2013), namely communication facilities, access and utilization.3.Morals (Y) are actions and attitudes that are in accordance with moral and ethical norms in a society(Setiawan, 2017).Baroroh (2022), states that there are four moral indicators consisting of honesty, discipline, responsibility and self-confidence.Data regarding PAI learning achievement will be obtained from students' academic records, while information regarding the use of social media and students' moral behavior will be collected through the use of questionnaires and observations.This method allows the acquisition of comprehensive and varied data, covering academic, digital and student behavioral aspects.Data analysis was carried out using multiple linear regression analysis, to assess the extent to which PAI learning achievement and social media use can predict students' moral behavior.
regression equation has a high level of significance.A more detailed analysis shows that the PAI learning achievement variables and the use of social media together have a significant influence on the morals of MTs Miftahiyah Yasi Labang Bangkalan students.Therefore, this shows that factors such as PAI learning achievement and the use of social media have an important role in simultaneously influencing the morals of MTs Miftahiyah Yasi Labang Bangkalan students.From the results of this research, evidence was obtained that there is a significant influence between PAI learning achievement and the formation of students' morals.PAI learning achievement turns out to provide a strong positive contribution to forming a good moral foundation in students.This is in accordance with findings from Dewi (2018); Fatmawati (2018); Lathifah (2018); Pratiwi (2021).Proper awareness of Islamic religious teachings, as conveyed through the PAI curriculum, has a very important role in guiding students towards dignified and ethical behavior.The PAI curriculum provides additional insight for students to explore the values of truth, justice and virtue embedded in the teachings of the Islamic religion.Awareness of the Islamic religion is important, including its ability to guide students to face moral dilemmas and everyday life situations.By understanding Islamic teachings, students can apply these values in their decision making and actions, creating behavior that reflects high ethical principles (Djazilan & Hariani, 2022).By immersing themselves in the religious values taught, students can form an attitude of humility, compassion and fairness in their interactions with others.This will guide students towards dignified and ethical behavior in their daily lives.The role of social media as a broad information channel has also been proven to be significant in influencing students' morals.These results are in line with studies from Suwahyu (2017); Syawaludin et al. (2022); Baharun et al. (2023).
well as understanding the moral implications of any actions or statements that appear on social media.Education about the responsible use of social media, together with strengthening awareness of moral values, can be an important step to ensure that interactions in cyberspace make a positive contribution to the moral and ethical development of students.The combination of Islamic ReligiousEducation (PAI) learning and the influence of social media is an important effort to shape the character of students.Therefore, special attention needs to be given to curriculum integration that not only emphasizes academic aspects, but also strengthens the formation of students' character and morals(Qorib & Lubis, 2023).In this context, the active role of parents, teachers and educational institutions is the key to monitoring and guiding students' use of social media.This is necessary to ensure that the exposure students receive from social media can have a positive impact on their moral development.Collaborative efforts between PAI learning in the school environment and the role of supervision and guidance from parents and teachers regarding students' use of social media becomes a holistic approach in character formation.Thus, not only aspects of religious knowledge are emphasized, but also policies and guidelines for healthy and positive use of social media to support moral values.Through this approach, students can develop a good understanding of religion while applying these values in their daily behavior, both in the real world and in cyberspace.This integration strengthens the concept of character education which includes positive moral, ethical and behavioral aspects, creating a sustainable educational environment for the holistic development of students.CONCLUSION Based on the research results, it can be concluded that Islamic Religious Education (PAI) learning achievement and the use of social media have a significant influence on the formation of students' morals.PAI learning achievement has been proven to provide a significant positive contribution to the formation of students' morals.This means that the better the PAI learning achievement, the better the students' morals.On the other hand, the use of social media also plays an important role in influencing students' morals.These findings highlight that the way students use social media can have an impact on their moral behavior.Therefore, management and education related to the use of social media in the educational environment, especially at Madrasah Tsanawiyah (MTS) Miftahiyah Yasi Labang Bangkalan, can be an integral part of efforts to form positive morals and strong moral values in students.The suggestions put forward by researchers based on the results of this research are that students need to receive supervision and empowerment from parents and teachers regarding the use of social media.This aims to reduce the potential for abuse and spread of negative content on students' social media accounts.The involvement of parents, teachers and authorities can form cooperation to monitor and respond to situations related to students' use of social media.This involves taking an active role in establishing relationships with authorities to create a safer environment in cyberspace.As a concrete step, recommendations for increasing the effectiveness of PAI learning and managing students' social media can be used as a reference for education policy.By understanding the interaction between these factors, educational institutions can design strategies that are more accurate and responsive to the demands of the times, thereby giving birth to a generation that is not only intellectually intelligent, but also has noble character to face the dynamics of digital society.
