Upaya Peningkatan Hasil Belajar dengan Menggunakan Model PBL pada Materi Syu’abul Iman (Cabang-Cabang Iman) Kelas X di SMA Negeri 3 Sibolga

Abstract

This study aims to improve student learning outcomes on the topic of Syu’abul Iman (Branches of Faith) in grade X at SMA Negeri 3 Sibolga through the implementation of the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) model. The research employed a classroom action research (CAR) method, conducted in two cycles, each consisting of planning, implementation, observation, and reflection stages. The subjects of this study were 32 tenth-grade students. Data collection techniques included learning outcome tests, student activity observations, and interviews. The results indicated that the application of the PBL model significantly improved students' learning outcomes, as evidenced by an increase in the average scores from the first to the second cycle. Students became more actively engaged in the learning process, demonstrating better analytical skills and problem-solving abilities related to the branches of faith. The success of the PBL model was supported by factors such as students' active participation in group discussions, collaborative problem-solving, and effective teacher guidance. Thus, the PBL model has proven to be an effective approach in enhancing student learning outcomes on the topic of Syu’abul Iman.
