Abstract:
Students' academic involvement has a role with students in activities and learning conditions.
Academic involvement not only supports students, it is a predictor of student success in learning.
This study was conducted to determine the increase in student academic involvement through the
application of the Problem Based Learning (PBL) model in junior high schools. In this study, the
model of Problem-Based Learning Implementation is expected to encourage collaborative and
constructive learning so that students are more involved with problem-based learning processes that
enhance better learning in learning. The application of the Problem Based Learning model in Junior
High School is designed so that students always collaborate with other students, so that solving
problems needed in collaboration between groups, when it can increase student academic
involvement.
This study used a single subject research design with several baseline designs throughout the subject.
Subjects in this study acted as research subjects who were intervened as well as control participants.
Research subjects were selected based on the academic involvement scale instrument for elementary
school students. Research data was collected through observation. Graph analysis is used in data
analysis, analysis is included in the conditions and analysis between conditions. Analysis in
conditions is an analysis used to analyze changes in one condition. While the analysis between
conditions for analyzing changes from one condition to another is the baseline condition under
intervention conditions.
The results of the graph and table analysis at the baseline showed stable engagement academic
behavior was low, but in conditions of academic engagement intervention increased. Increased
academic involvement in each student that occurs after intervention through the application of the
Problem Based Learning model. |
