Abstract

This study aims to describe the innovative leadership of the principal in managing an effective learning environment at SD Inpres 2 Besusu. The study employed a qualitative approach using a descriptive method. The research subjects consisted of the principal, teachers, and educational staff. Data collection techniques were conducted through observation, semi structured interviews, questionnaires, and documentation, while data analysis used the interactive model of Miles and Huberman, which includes data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The results of the study indicate that the principal’s innovative leadership contributes very positively to the creation of an effective learning environment, as reflected in teachers’ high perceptions of the principal’s leadership and learning environment management. Interview findings revealed that the principal was able to encourage teachers’ creativity, support the use of educational technology, build harmonious social relationships, and create a safe, comfortable, and conducive learning atmosphere. The innovations implemented included the development of digital based learning, the organization of training sessions and workshops, as well as improvements to the school’s physical environment to support learning comfort. These findings indicate that the principal’s innovative leadership plays an important role in improving the effectiveness of the learning environment through strengthening teacher motivation, student engagement, and the quality of the learning process in elementary schools.

Abstract

This study aimed to determine the effect of the Project-Based Learning (PjBL) model on students’ learning outcomes in Pancasila Education for fifth-grade students at SD Inpres 3 Talise. The study employed a quantitative approach using a quasi-experimental design with a nonequivalent control group design. The sample consisted of 47 students, including 24 students in the experimental class and 23 students in the control class. Data were collected through pretests and posttests administered before and after the learning intervention. The experimental class received instruction using the Project-Based Learning model, while the control class was taught using conventional learning methods. Data were analyzed using validity and reliability tests, normality tests, homogeneity tests, and the Mann–Whitney U test. The results showed that the average pretest score of the experimental class was 56.25 and increased to 84.16 in the posttest, while the control class improved from 54.87 to 70.21. The Mann–Whitney U test revealed a significance value of less than 0.05, indicating a significant effect of the Project-Based Learning model on students’ learning outcomes. Therefore, the Project-Based Learning model can be considered an effective and innovative learning approach for improving elementary school students’ learning outcomes in Pancasila Education.
