The Effectiveness of the Project-Based Learning (PjBL) Model on Students’ Creativity

Abstract

The use of teacher-centred learning in schools has become a common issue in education. This study
aims to analyze the effectiveness of the Project-Based Learning (PjBL) model on students'
creativity. The objective of this study is to examine and analyze the effectiveness of the Project
Based Learning (PjBL) model in enhancing students' creativity. The research method employed a
quantitative descriptive approach with a one-group pretest-posttest design, involving 18 students
from class XI at MA Pondok Pesantren Darul Muhsinin as the sample. Data was collected through
tests. The analysis results showed that the implementation of PjBL in class XI increased student
scores, improving learning outcomes from a pretest score of 38.6 to a posttest score of 67.7. There
was a significant difference between the pretest and posttest scores, indicating that Project-Based
Learning is an effective method for enhancing students' creativity in learning.
