Abstract

This study examined the effect of the Project-Based Learning (PjBL) method on students’ learning outcomes in Economics. The research was motivated by low student participation and learning outcomes associated with the use of teacher-centered instructional methods. The study aimed to determine whether implementing PjBL significantly affected the learning outcomes of eleventh-grade students at State Senior High School 11 Jambi City. A quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design using a nonequivalent control group design was employed. The sample consisted of two classes: XI F7 as the experimental group and XI F3 as the control group, with 36 students in each class. Data were collected through pre-test and post-test instruments and analyzed using descriptive statistics and hypothesis testing. The results showed that the mean score of the experimental group increased from 57.50 on the pre-test to 77.92 on the post-test, while the control group improved from 56.81 to 67.78. These findings indicate that the implementation of Project-Based Learning resulted in greater improvement in students’ learning outcomes than conventional teaching methods. Therefore, Project-Based Learning can be considered an effective instructional approach for improving students’ achievement in Economics.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of digital literacy and the use of educational social media on students’ learning motivation at SMP Negeri 3 Kendari. The research employed a quantitative approach using a survey method. The population consisted of all students, with the sample determined using a proportional sampling technique. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using multiple linear regression. The results show that digital literacy has a positive and significant effect on students’ learning motivation. Meanwhile, the use of educational social media has a positive but not statistically significant effect on learning motivation. Simultaneously, digital literacy and the use of educational social media have a significant effect on students’ learning motivation, with a coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.256, indicating that 25.6% of the variation in learning motivation is explained by both variables. These findings suggest that improving students’ digital literacy is essential in enhancing their learning motivation. Although the use of educational social media contributes positively, its role is not yet optimal and requires more effective integration into the learning process.
