This study aims to examine the effect of the Deep Learning approach on improving students’ understanding in Islamic Religious Education (PAI) at vocational high schools. The research was motivated by the low level of students’ conceptual and applicative understanding, as well as their tendency to rely on memorization rather than critical thinking. A quantitative approach with a pre-experimental design was employed, involving pretest and posttest assessments to measure students’ learning outcomes before and after the implementation of the Deep Learning method. The findings indicate a significant improvement in students’ understanding after the application of the Deep Learning approach. Students demonstrated better ability to analyze concepts, relate learning materials to real-life contexts, and express ideas more critically and reflectively. Statistical analysis showed that the data were normally distributed and homogeneous, allowing for parametric testing. The t-test results revealed a significant difference between pretest and posttest scores, confirming that the Deep Learning approach has a meaningful effect on students’ comprehension. In addition, correlation and regression analyses indicated a strong positive relationship between the implementation of Deep Learning and students’ understanding. Beyond cognitive improvement, changes were also observed in students’ attitudes, including increased participation, confidence, and engagement during the learning process. These results suggest that the Deep Learning approach promotes meaningful, student-centered learning that goes beyond rote memorization. Therefore, this method is recommended as an effective strategy to enhance the quality of PAI learning, particularly in fostering deeper understanding and critical thinking skills among vocational high school students.
