Abstract

The application of the project-based learning model fosters improved understanding and creativity, thereby supporting children's independence. Project-based learning also facilitates character development. This study aims to describe the implementation of the project-based learning model and the subsequent increase in children's independence. The study employed Kurt Lewin's classroom action research model, utilizing descriptive statistics for data analysis. Data collected were categorized according to the study's objectives and gathered through observation and documentation. The research procedure comprised two cycles, preceded by an initial observation or pre-cycle phase. The subjects were 19 children aged 5–6 years. The results indicate a significant increase in independence from the pre-cycle stage through to Cycle II. The average independence score rose from 37.63 in the pre-cycle to 46.90 in Cycle I and 85.46 in Cycle II. By Cycle II, eight children fell into the "good" category, while 11 were in the "very good" category.
