The Use of the PBL Learning Model in an Effort to Improve Students' Understanding of Earth's Rotation in Class VI at SD Negeri 3 Wonorejo, Lawang District

Abstract

At SD Negeri 3 Wonorejo Lawang, the process of teaching science is still often presented in the form of lectures, and teachers rarely use adequate teaching media or learning resources to explain the concepts of the subject matter. The objective of this research is to enhance students' understanding of Earth's Rotation by using the PBL (Problem Based Learning) teaching model. The purpose of this research is to enhance students' understanding of Earth's Rotation using the PBL (Problem Based Learning) model. This type of research is a classroom action research using a qualitative approach conducted through 2 cycles. The type of research is classroom action research using a qualitative approach conducted through 2 cycles.Cycle 1 has 1 meeting and cycle 2 has 1 meeting. Each cycle consists of the stages of planning, action, observation, and reflection. The subjects of the study are the sixth-grade students of SD Negeri 3 Wonorejo Lawang, totaling 21 students, consisting of 7 male students and 14 female students. The data obtained in this study includes: student learning outcomes taken from evaluation tests, documentation, teacher competency, and student activity in learning taken from observation sheets. Data is analyzed through the stages of reduction, display, and conclusion drawing. It seems there is no text to translate. Please provide the text you'd like me to translate, and I'll be happy to help!The success indicator in this study is: if ≥ 75% of the total number of students are categorized as complete, with the criteria for completion being if the evaluation scores in the learning activities of cycle 1 and cycle 2 are ≥ 75.The results of this study show an average score of 73.3 in cycle 1 and 86.7 in cycle 2.Meanwhile, the percentage of completeness in cycle 1 was 47.6% and in cycle 2 was 85.7%. Meanwhile, the percentage of completeness in cycle 1 was 47.6% and in cycle 2 was 85.7%. Based on the research results and findings above, it shows that the PBL learning model can improve the mastery of science concepts among sixth-grade students at SD Negeri 3 Wonorejo Lawang.Based on the research results and findings above, it shows that the PBL learning model can improve the mastery of science concepts among sixth-grade students at SD Negeri 3 Wonorejo Lawang.Based on the research results and findings above, it shows that the PBL learning model can improve the mastery of science concepts among sixth-grade students at SD Negeri 3 Wonorejo Lawang. The recommendation that can be made is that the implementation of the PBL learning model should be carried out by teachers so that students' understanding of the Earth's rotation can be maximized.The suggestion that can be made is that the implementation of the PBL learning model should be carried out by teachers so that students' understanding of the Earth's rotation can be maximized.
