Abstract

The learning model applied to the National and Regional Health Development System courses at Jambi University is still dominant using conventional methods in the last two years. Student-centered learning innovation is needed through a project-based learning model (PjBL). The purpose of this study is to identify differences in students’ critical thinking skills and communication skills between the application of project-based learning and conventional learning in the National and Regional Health Development System courses. The research was conducted in the Public Health Study Program, Jambi University on fifth semester students with a total of 36 students. The research design is in the form of a pseudo-experimental class involving an experimental class and a control class. The instruments used are test sheets with indicators to measure critical thinking skills and oral communication skills test sheets and assessment report sheets. Data collection was carried out twice, complemented by pre-test and post-test. Data processing using SPSS. Data analysis was carried out in stages using the T test. The results showed that there were differences in students’ critical thinking skills (p = 0.002) and communication skills (p = 0.004) between the application of project-based learning and the application of conventional learning. There is an influence of project-based learning on students’ critical thinking and communication skills in the National and Regional Health Development Systems course. It is recommended that project-based learning be applied to each course in various study programs in higher education, especially teaching materials. case-based studies. The PjBL method provides opportunities for students to be directly involved in completing the problem-solving projects studied so that it is expected to improve students’ thinking power to think critically and hone communication skills by being actively involved in complex learning processes.
