Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the effect of using Project Based Learning (PBL) approach on students' Social Studies learning outcomes, by considering students' initial ability as a relevant factor. The research method used is statistical analysis of student learning outcomes data divided into two groups, namely the group that applied PBL and the control group that used conventional learning methods. The results of the analysis showed that there was a significant difference in social studies learning outcomes between the two groups, with a significance value (sig.) obtained of 0.00 <0.05. This indicates that PBL has a positive impact in improving students' understanding of social studies material. In addition, there was also a significant difference in social studies learning outcomes based on students' initial ability, with a sig. of 0.00 < 0.05. However, there was no significant interaction between the application of PBL and students' initial ability in determining students' learning outcomes, as shown by the sig. value of 0.622 > 0.05. The results of this study provide an important contribution in understanding the effectiveness of PBL in improving students' social studies learning outcomes, as well as its implications for the development of more effective learning strategies in the future.
