Abstract

This study aims to examine the application of the Problem Based Learning (PBL) model based on Focus Group Discussion (FGD) in relation to student learning outcomes. The study used a quasi-experimental research design with a one-group pretest–posttest approach. The subjects were grade X students of SMAN 2 Kolaka in Geography who participated in learning activities with the application of the PBL–FGD model. Data collection was carried out through learning outcome tests given before and after the application of the learning model. Data analysis used descriptive statistics. The results showed an increase in the average posttest score compared to the pretest, which indicated an increase in student learning outcomes. These findings indicate that the PBL model integrated with FGD is effective in improving conceptual understanding, problem-solving abilities, and active student participation in learning. The PBL–FGD model can be used as an alternative effective learning strategy to improve student learning outcomes.
