INCREASING 5TH GRADE STUDENTS' ACTIVITY AND LEARNING OUTCOMES THROUGH THE PBL LEARNING MODEL

Abstract

Education is an effort made by an educator to provide knowledge and train the potential that exists in a student. Good education and the activeness of students in participating in learning will obtain optimal learning results. However, there are still some students who are less active in participating in learning so that it affects their learning outcomes. The lack of student activity is caused by learning models that are less varied. The purpose of this study was to increase the activity and learning outcomes of 5th grade elementary school students in the learning material "Economic Business" using the PBL model. This type of research is Classroom Action Research conducted in two cycles. The research subjects were 28 grade 5 elementary school students. Data collection techniques used observation and documentation. Data analysis techniques in the form of qualitative and quantitative analysis techniques. The results showed that the mastery of student learning outcomes from the start of the pre-cycle was 39%, cycle-1 became 78.5%, and cycle-2 became 92.5%. The activeness of students also increased from pre-cycle there was 50.3%, cycle-1 became 60.75%, and cycle-2 became 83.5%. So it can be concluded that the PBL model can increase the activity and learning outcomes of students, with an increase in the proportion of each cycle.
