IMPLEMENTATION OF A PROBLEM-BASED LEARNING MODEL USING POP-UP BOOKS TO INCREASE STUDENTS' MOTIVATION AND ACHIEVEMENT IN NATURAL SCIENCE SUBJECTS

Abstract

This research is based on the problem of low motivation and learning achievement among Class V students at SD Negeri 1 Sidoharjo. The research aims to determine the implementation of a Problem-Based Learning (PBL) model using pop-up books to increase student motivation and achievement in Natural Sciences (IPA) Class V SD Negeri 1 Sidoharjo—using Classroom Action Research—by implementing two cycles. The Classroom Action research the researcher uses consists of four stages: planning, action, observation, and reflection. The subjects in this study were 25 students of Class V SD Negeri 1 Sidoharjo—research using test and non-test instruments. The test consists of a written test and a non-test system consisting of observation sheets and questionnaires. Research data were analysed using a quantitative description. Research data showed that the results of learning motivation in Cycle I were 74% with the criteria "Good," and there was an increase in Cycle II of 85.8% with the criteria "Very Good." Data on student achievement in Cycle I obtained an average score of 74.11 with a classical completeness of 58% (Enough). In Cycle II, there was an increase in the average score of 83.88, with classical completeness of 86% (Very Good). So it can be concluded that implementing a PBL model using the pop-up book can increase student motivation and achievement in science subjects in Class V SD Negeri 1 Sidoharjo.
