Tantangan dalam mengimplementasikan Pembelajaran Berbasis Proyek dalam Pengajaran Matematika di Kelas VI

Abstract

This study aims to identify and analyze the challenges faced in implementing Project-Based Learning (PjBL) in teaching mathematics in Class VI A of SD Negeri 101771 Tembung. The research method used is descriptive qualitative with data collection techniques in the form of observation, interviews, and documentation. The results of the study indicate that the implementation of PjBL faces several main challenges, including limited teacher understanding of the PjBL concept, lack of resources and teaching aids that support project-based learning, and limited learning time. In addition, students' ability to work independently and in groups is also an obstacle, considering that most students are still accustomed to conventional learning methods. Lack of support from parents in helping children complete projects at home also affects the effectiveness of the implementation of this method. However, PjBL has great potential in increasing student involvement and understanding of mathematics material if implemented optimally. Therefore, further training is needed for teachers, as well as cooperation between schools and parents to support the success of project-based learning at the elementary school level.
