This study explores the enhancement of the research skill development framework through the integration of interactive learning technologies in Islamic higher education. By synthesizing existing literature, the paper proposes strategies for effectively integrating these technologies to foster research skill development among students. Key components include aligning technology use with pedagogical goals, providing professional development and training for educators, and ensuring robust infrastructure and support systems. Emerging trends such as artificial intelligence, virtual reality, and gamification offer promising avenues for innovation. Areas for further investigation include assessing the impact on student learning outcomes, addressing accessibility and inclusivity, and understanding factors influencing student engagement. The implications for policy and practice underscore the importance of investing in technological infrastructure, supporting faculty development, and promoting accessibility. Overall, this study highlights the potential of interactive learning technologies to enhance research skill development in Islamic higher education
