THE EFFECTIVENESS OF PROJECT-BASED LEARNING AND PROBLEM- BASED LEARNING MODELS TOWARDS GEOGRAPHY LEARNING OUTCOMES IN TERMS OF STUDENTS’ LOCUS OF CONTROL

Abstract

Nowadays, Indonesian’s education seems to have an improvement in its quality. The government is establishing the 2013 curriculum. However, its implementation has not been well-implemented. In regard to this problem, it is necessary to apply scientific learning models: PjBL and PBL models. With these models and according to the students’ locus of control, it is expected that it will improve students’ learning outcomes. This study is aimed at determining the effectiveness of PjBL and PBL  models towards learning outcomes in terms of the students’ Locus of Control. The method used in this study was experiment, with 2x2 factorial design. The population was XI IPS students of  SMAN 1 Ngaglik. The samples were 32 experimental students of PBL model and 28 experimental students of PjBL model. The data were collected using questionnaires and tests. The data were analyzed using Two Ways ANOVA. The result of the analysis shows that there is an influence between the models and students’ locus of control towards the learning outcomes. The value of Fcal5.488>Fstd4.00 and the value of the probability is 0.023 < 0.05.
