This research was motivated by the low learning outcomes of students in science subjects at SMPN 4 Pariaman. For this reason, in the teaching process it is necessary to use appropriate learning models. One learning model that can be used is the Project Based Learning (PjBL) model. The aim of the research is to determine the effect of implementing the PjBL learning model on the learning outcomes of class VII students at SMPN 4 Pariaman in the subjects of Ecology and Indonesian Biodiversity. This research uses a quasi-experimental type of research with a non-equivalent control group design. The research population was class VII students of SMPN 4 Pariaman TP.2023/2024, with a purposive sampling technique. Class VII.1 was chosen as the experimental class and class VII.2 as the control class. The experimental class uses the PjBL model, while the control class uses the conventional model. The instruments used were observation sheets on the implementation of the PjBL model and objective test questions adapted to the KKTP on Indonesian Ecology and Biodiversity material. The data obtained was analyzed and prerequisite tests and hypothesis tests were carried out. The results of the posttest value hypothesis test using the t test show tcount of 8.13 and ttable 2.00. The data shows tcount > ttable so that H1 is accepted, meaning that there is a significant difference between the average posttest scores of experimental class and control class students after being given different treatment. It can be concluded that providing treatment by applying the PjBL model has an influence on student learning outcomes in Indonesian Ecology and Biodiversity Material for class VII SMPN 4 Pariaman.

This research is motivated by a learning process that only uses conventional models, so that in class it only focuses on the delivery of material by the teacher. Students are only asked to listen and take notes on the material presented, so that this has an impact on low student learning outcomes. This research aims to determine the effect of the Project Based learning model on the learning outcomes of the 8th grader at SMPN 1 Payakumbuh. This type of this research is quasi experiment using a non-equivalent control group design. This design begins with giving a pretest and ends with giving a posttest to the experimental and control groups. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling. Based on the results of the student response questionnaire to the Project Based learning model, a percentage of 86.45% was found to be in the very good category. Based on the results of hypothesis testing using the t test, a significance value of 3.685 > 2.0003 was obtained, meaning that there is a significant difference in the learning outcomes of students who use the Project Based Learning model and the learning outcomes of students who use conventional learning models. The results of the experimental class N-Gain test were found to be 0.55 in the medium category. It can be concluded that in this research, the Project Based Learning model has a significant influence on the learning outcomes of class VIII students at SMPN 1 Payakumbuh.

This research was driven by the observation that many students still lack a strong understanding of the subject matter, leading to below-average performance. Another factor that causes low student learning outcomes is the lack of variety in learning models applied by teachers so that learning becomes uninteresting. For this reason, various learning models are needed, such as the application of the guided discovery learning model The results of previous research stated that this model can improve student learning outcomes. This study aims to determine the effect of the application of the guided discovery learning model on students’ learning outcomes. This type of research is a quasi experiment with a nonequivalent control group design research design. The sampling technique uses the purposive sampling technique. The sample consists of one experimental class by applying the guided discovery learning model and one control class with a conventional model. This study conducted a statistical analysis using Microsoft Excel. The result shows that there is an improvement in students’ learning outcomes in the control class in the low category, while the increase in students’ learning outcomes in the experimental class is in the medium category.

Observations and interviews with science teachers at SMPN 7 Padang revealed that learning that trains students' critical thinking skills has not been implemented optimally. When students gave answers or asked questions related to the material in science learning, they were still hesitant or limited to understand, also scientific attitude towards science learning. The literature states that Problem Based Learning (PBL) model is able to train students' critical thinking skills. PBL shows effective approach to increase students’ potential and develop students’ critical thinking skills. Therefore, this study was conducted to determine the effect of the Problem Based Learning model on the Critical Thinking Skills of Grade VIII Students at SMP Negeri 7 Padang. This quantitative study used a quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest control group design. PBL Model as the independent variable in this study was employed to experimental class, while dependent variable was students’ critical thinking skills tested in both experimental and control class. The measurement of students’ critical thinking skills consisted of five indicators such as elementary clarification, basic support, inference, advance clarification, and strategy and tactics. The results showed a significant increase in students' critical thinking skills in the experimental group compared to the control group (p<0.05). It can be concluded that Problem Based Learning model significantly improve students’ critical thinking skills.
