Application of the Project Based Learning (PJBL) Learning Model to Increase Student Activity and Learning Outcomes

Abstract

The aims of the research were to find out (1) to increase the activeness of studying the database for class XII RPL students at SMK N 4 Bandung using the project-based learning (pjbl) learning model (2) to increase the learning outcomes for class XII RPL students at SMK N 4 Bandung using the learning model PJBL This research is a type of classroom action research with a model developed by Kemmis and Mc. Taggart. The research subjects were students of class XII RPL Software Engineering Expertise Program (RPL) SMK Negeri 4 Bandung, with a total of 29 students. This study consisted of 2 (two) cycles where there were two meetings in each cycle. The data analysis technique uses descriptive qualitative analysis. The research success criteria set for student learning activeness is 75.00% of students are actively involved both physically, mentally, and socially in the process of learning activities and for student learning outcomes is 75 for a rating scale of 1-100. The results showed that the application of the PJBL learning model could increase the activity and learning outcomes of class XII RPL students at SMK Negeri 4 Bandung. The average learning activity of XII RPL students in the pre-cycle only reached 35.33%. After applying the PJBL learning model in cycle I, the average student learning activity increased to 60.13% and in cycle II it increased to 81.02%.
