This study aims to describe the implementation of cooperative learning in Catholic Religious Education (CRE) at SDI Waibalun, focusing on lesson planning, implementation, student engagement, challenges, and changes in learning outcomes. This study employed a descriptive qualitative approach. The research informants consisted of one CRE teacher, ten students from Grades IV–VI, and one school principal, selected purposively based on their involvement and knowledge of the learning process. Data were collected through six participatory observation sessions, each lasting 90 minutes, in-depth interviews, and document analysis. Data were analyzed using the Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña model through data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing and verification. The findings indicate that cooperative learning was implemented through systematic lesson planning, the formation of heterogeneous groups, collaborative discussions, and learning evaluation. Observation and interview findings showed greater student engagement in asking questions, expressing opinions, collaborating with peers, and appreciating others’ contributions. Documentary data indicated an increase in the average learning score from 65.8 to 79.2, while learning mastery increased from 38% to 87%. These figures were used as supporting evidence of changes in learning achievement and were not subjected to inferential statistical analysis. The main challenges, including limited instructional time, students’ initial readiness, and limited learning facilities, were addressed through teacher guidance, effective time management, task distribution, and optimal use of available resources. Overall, cooperative learning provided greater opportunities for student participation and supported the development of cooperation, responsibility, solidarity, and mutual respect, which are consistent with the values emphasized in Catholic Religious Education.
