The data was analyzed descriptively. The results showed that the participants never used discovery learning for the class activity before. This new experience had a positive impact on the participants’ perception on Islamic economics learning. Discovery learning was found to be more practical compared to the traditional method. Moreover, this study found that the participants were attracted to learning the idea in discovery learning through direct interaction with society.
