Abstract

In the context of religious plurality, tolerance is one of the potential values to prevent conflicts between religious adherents. Therefore, educational praxis in schools is important to encourage religious tolerance or facilitate students to think critically about multicultural contexts. This study aims to examine the spread of students ‘understanding of tolerance and how learning methods have the potential to develop students’ awareness of religious tolerance. This study used a cross-sectional survey approach, namely research with an extensive dataset to see the relationship between variables related to tolerance. The results of a survey conducted by distributing questionnaires randomly to 250 grade 9 students from four public junior high schools and two private public schools in the city of Bandung showed that students’ tolerance attitudes had a significant positive correlation with learning praxis using the group discussion method. In conclusion, the learning method through group discussion is more effective for developing students’ tolerance attitudes.
