Pengaruh Model Project Based Learning terhadap Hasil Belajar IPAS Siswa Kelas V UPTD SDN Demangan 1 Bangkalan

Abstract

This Science and Social Studies (IPAS) learning in the Merdeka Curriculum emphasizes student-centered, contextual, and meaningful learning that promotes twenty-first-century competencies. However, the preliminary study conducted at UPTD SDN Demangan 1 Bangkalan revealed that classroom instruction was still dominated by direct instruction, resulting in passive student participation, low learning motivation, and learning outcomes that had not achieved classical mastery. These conditions indicate the need for a more innovative instructional model capable of actively engaging students throughout the learning process. One instructional model considered appropriate for the characteristics of the Merdeka Curriculum is Project Based Learning (PjBL) because it enables students to learn collaboratively through contextual project activities. Therefore, this study aims to determine the effect of the Project Based Learning model on the IPAS learning outcomes of fifth-grade students at UPTD SDN Demangan 1 Bangkalan. A quantitative approach was used in this study with a quasi-experimental approach with a nonequivalent control group design. The Population surveyed consisted of all student in fifth grade at UPTD SDN Demangan 1 Bangkalan. Meanwhile, the VA and VB samples with 40 student each consisted of. Data were collected through achievement tests and classroom observations using validated pretest and posttest instruments, as well as observation sheets for learning implementation. Validity, reliability, item difficulty, discrimination index analysis, normality, homogeneity, and hypothesis testing were all techniques used for data analysis. The Independent Sample t-Test was used to test the data. This study's results should help with the development of more active, inventive, and efficient IPAS learning practices to improve elementary school students' learning outcomes.
