The Effect of the Problem Based Learning Model Using Wordwall on the Motivation and Learning Outcomes of Sciences in Grade V Elementary School

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) model assisted by Wordwall on the motivation and learning outcomes of fifth-grade science students in elementary schools. The focus of the study is to determine the extent to which the problem-based learning model assisted by the Wordwall application affects students' motivation and learning outcomes. This study aims to provide practical recommendations for educators in designing more effective learning strategies, especially in the elementary school context. This study uses a quantitative method with a quasi-experimental method in the form of a pre-experimental with a one-group pretest-posttest design. The research sample consisted of only one class as the experimental class, namely class Va. Learning outcome test in the form of multiple-choice questions based on cognitive indicators. The results of the study showed that there was a significant increase in student motivation and learning outcomes after the application of the problem-based learning model assisted by the Wordwall application. The statistical test used a t-test in the form of a paired sample t-test. This proves that there is a significant difference between the motivation scores and student learning outcomes before and after the application of the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) model assisted by Wordwall. Thus, it can be concluded that the application of the Problem Based Learning (PBL) learning model assisted by the Wordwall application has a positive effect on increasing the motivation and learning outcomes of class Va students.Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh model pembelajaran problem based learning (PBL) berbantuan Wordwall terhadap motivasi dan hasil belajar IPAS kelas V Di Sekolah Dasar. Fokus penelitian adalah untuk mengetahui sejauh mana model pembelajaran problem based learning berbantuan aplikasi Wordwall mempengaruhi motivasi dan hasil belajar siswa. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memberikan rekomendasi praktis bagi pendidik dalam merancang strategi pembelajaran yang lebih efektif, khususnya dalam konteks Sekolah Dasar. Penelitian ini menggunakan kuantitatif dengan metode quasi eksperimen dalam bentuk pre-eksperimental dengan tipe one group Pretest-Posttest design. Sampel penelitian terdiri dari satu kelas saja yang menjadi kelas eksperimen yaitu kelas Va. Instrumen yang digunakan meliputi angket motivasi belajar yang dikembangkan berdasarkan teori Uno (2020) serta tes hasil belajar berupa soal pilihan ganda berbasis indikator kognitif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terdapat peningkatan yang signifikan pada motivasi dan hasil belajar siswa setelah diterapkan model pembelajaran problem based learning berbantuan aplikasi Wordwall. Uji statistik menggunakan uji-t berbentuk paired sample t-test. Hal ini membuktikan bahwa terdapat perbedaan yang signifikan antara skor motivasi dan hasil belajar siswa sebelum dan sesudah diterapkan model pembelajaran Problem Based Learning (PBL) berbantuan Wordwall. Dengan demikian, dapat disimpulkan bahwa penerapan model pembelajaran Problem Based Learning (PBL) berbantuan aplikasi Wordwall berpengaruh positif terhadap peningkatan motivasi dan hasil belajar siswa kelas Va.
