Abstract

Project based learning is a learning approach that is mediated by projects or activities. Students as learners are involved in inquiry, assessment, interpretation, synthesis and information to produce learning outcomes in various forms. As a form of student centered active teaching, project based learning is characterized by student autonomy and is carried out in practical practice through constructive inquiry, goal setting, collaboration, communication, and reflection. Project based learning has been studied in a variety of contexts, and provides students with opportunities to delve deeper into relevant learning topics. Students are designed to be more independent in building personally meaningful artifacts. The project based learning approach is useful in general and increases students’ individual and collective knowledge by learning inquiry based and scientific process based skills in chemistry learning. Students engaged in project based learning develop substantive knowledge and learning are becoming increasingly important in the 21st century, teamwork, complex problem solving, the ability to apply knowledge acquired in one lesson or assignment to another. The project based learning approach engages students and teachers in finding solutions to questions about the world around them such as studying natural phenomena in science lessons. Science is a collection of knowledge about nature that is produced through a process of continuous investigation. Types of knowledge, research processes, and people in scientific fields contribute in various ways to form a unique scientific system. To achieve science learning goals and how to teach science, we describe a fun approach we call project based learning. The purpose of writing this article is to explore the possibility of a project based learning approach and to design chemistry lessons that will support and facilitate students, as well as improve the ability to integrate knowledge and improve skills in the science learning process, especially better chemistry learning. The method used includes a systematic literature review method. The results of the study show that project-based learning is more effective than traditional learning methods in science classes. The project based learning approach can be used and further developed in science subjects, especially chemistry.
