Efektivitas Model Pembelajaran Project Based Learning dengan Pendekatan Deep Learning terhadap Kemampuan Berpikir Reflektif pada Materi Rantai Makanan
Abstract
This study aims to determine the effectiveness of the Project Based Learning (PjBL) model with a Deep Learning approach on the reflective thinking ability of fifth-grade students on the topic of food chains. This research employed a quantitative approach using an experimental method with a pretest–posttest experimental design. The subjects of the study were fifth-grade students of SDN Kepuh Kiriman I Waru, consisting of two experimental classes, namely class V-B and class V-A, with 28 students in each class. The research instruments included reflective thinking essay tests in the form of pretest and posttest, observation sheets, student response questionnaires, and a reflective thinking attitude scale. Data were analyzed using descriptive analysis and the N-Gain test to determine the improvement in students’ reflective thinking abilities. The results showed that students' reflective thinking abilities improved, with an N-Gain score of 0.71 in experimental class 1 and 0.72 in experimental class 2, which are categorized as high. The average posttest scores also indicated good results, namely 84.44 in experimental class 1 and 85.93 in experimental class 2. In addition, questionnaire results showed that students responded positively to the learning process, and the reflective thinking attitude scale indicated a dominance of the “strongly agree” category across several indicators. Therefore, the Project Based Learning model with a Deep Learning approach is effective in improving students’ reflective thinking abilities on the topic of food chains.
