In order to renurture students’ interest in learning Ibadah, it is imperative that Teacher of Islamic Education (Tie) utilize the right and suitable teacing technique and model. Past studies have shown that exposure to various teaching models and techniques may assist in enhancing students’ interest in learning that results in them excelling their education. Nonetheless, such exposure is not much emphasized by TIe. In addition, educators are also facing with problems in producing effective instruction due to the reason that they do not fully understand their students’ interest and learning style. Teachers’ failure in identifying appropriate learning style will result in students’ becoming disinterested in learning. In order to obtain an effectiveness of the teaching and learning process at the optimal level, TIe must identify students’ learning styles as well as using an appropriate strategy. One of the teaching techniques that teachers can employ is the audio and visual technique. Studies have shown that teachers' self-efficacy (SE) beliefs were examined as determinants of their job satisfaction and students' academic achievement. In addition, studies also found that teaching strategies and techniques is one of the prominent factors that led to high SE of a teacher. Precisely, this study will: 1) identify the using of audio (hearing) and visual (sight) for Excellent Teachers of Islamic Education (ETIe) in teaching subject Ibadah and 2) to analyse the effects of using audio (hearing) and visual (sight) techniques towards the SE of ETIe. This study used a qualitative approach while interview and observation are as the main instruments. This study has also seen to have implications for the policy and practice of teaching among Teachers of Islamic Education TIe.

The role of Islamic education teacher (IET) as society change agent (SCA) requires a strong internal motivation factor. It begins with confidence in self-ability i.e. self-efficacy (SE) in implementing the trust given to them. This study aims to assess the relationship between SE ITE in Malaysia with the role of SCA in society. This quantitative study has involved 1382 IETs in Malaysia. The sampling technique used was cluster sampling and based on random sample selection. The findings show that the SE level of ITE is at high level. But the role of IET as SCA is at less satisfactory level. Furthermore, SE has been identified to have a significant relationship with IET's role as SCA but was at weak level. The implication is, the study finds that the focus should be on restoring ITE's mindset about the community's work and developing the ummah, as well as the 21st century teaching and learning (T&L) skills. In fact, IET needs to be given practical exposure to engage in society through NGOs, surau, mosques, da'wah organization and government agencies.

This study aims to assess the relationship between SE ITE in Malaysia with the role of SCA in society. This quantitative study has involved 1382 IETs in Malaysia. The sampling technique used was cluster sampling and based on random sample selection. The findings show that the SE level of ITE is at high level. Same goes to the GO, the perception of IET toward their GO is in good level. But the role of IET as SCA is at less satisfactory level. Furthermore, SE and GO have been identified to have significant correlation with IET's role as SCA but was at low and weak level. The implication is, the study finds that the focus should be on restoring IET's mindset about the community's work and developing the ummah, as well as the 21st century teaching and learning (T&L) skills.
