Abstract

This Classroom Action Research aims to increase the learning interest of 7th-grade students at SMPK Santo Yusup Banyuwangi in the subject of Catholic Religious Education and Character through the Project Based Learning (PjBL) phase D model. The main issue faced by 7th-grade students at SMPK Santo Yusup is their low interest in learning, which has negatively affected their academic performance and decreased their motivation to participate in learning activities. This study uses the classroom action research method with two cycles, each consisting of the stages of planning, action, observation, and reflection. Data were collected through direct observations, student interest questionnaires, performance evaluations, and tests. The results of the research show that PjBL phase D can significantly improve students' interest in learning. In the first cycle, student interest increased, although many challenges were encountered in implementing the method. In the second cycle, after addressing the issues and challenges, student interest increased significantly without further problems. The conclusion of this research is that the use of the PjBL phase D model is effective in improving students' interest in the subject of Catholic Religious Education and Character. Therefore, this model can be considered an alternative teaching method to address the issue of low student interest.
