Abstract

Project-based learning is a type of education that gives students the chance to expand their knowledge. This learning can also develop learners’ abilities to solve problems through real-world activities and tasks in a project. In this article, the research was conducted due to the lack of creativity among students in learning about electric lighting installations. The completeness of the learning outcomes of the electric lighting installation from the 30 students who completed it was only 40%. Project-based learning is one of the learning strategies that might boost student creativity. In project-based learning, learners are encouraged to be more enganged in learning. The teacher only acts as a facilitator. Teachers evaluate the products of student work that are displayed in the project results. Based on this fact, research was carried out on the influence of project-based learning on the subject of electric lighting installations. The purpose of this study is to improve the creativity and learning outcomes of students by applying project-based learning to the learning of electric lighting installations. This type of research is quasi-experimental with a pretest-posttest design. The subjects of this study consisted of 30 learners. Data collection in this study used pre-test and post-test learning outcome tests. The results showed that learning outcomes using project-based learning had an average score of 84,433. The results have met 100% completion. Thus, it can be concluded that project-based learning can improve learning outcomes. Related to psychomotor learning, project-based learning can develop the creativity of learners in planning and completing a project.
