Nurul Dwi Hidayati "The Influence of the Problem Based Learning Learning Model on the Understanding of Science Concepts in Class 4 SD Negeri Doyong 4 Tangerang City". This study aims to determine the effect of the Problem Based Learning learning model on students who use conventional methods. This study used a quasi-experimental design with nonequivalent control group design. The population subjects in this study were all fourth grade students at SD Negeri Doyong 4 Kota Tangerang totaling 56. The sample used was saturated sampling, namely class IV A, totaling 24 students as the control class and IV B, totaling 28 students as the experimental class.

It can be concluded that there is a significant difference between the average posttest scores. control class and experimental class. This can be interpreted that the ability to understand science concepts using the Problem Based Learning learning model is higher than using conventional learning methods.
