Empowering Project-Based Learning Model With Video Blog

The Project-Based Learning Model with video blog (vlog) integration, referred to as PjBLV, was developed as an enhancement of the traditional Project-Based Learning (PjBL) approach. This innovation aims to address the limitations of PjBL in improving the effectiveness of hands-on learning experiences. A mixed-methods research design was employed, utilizing the Mile and Huberman method and Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) to validate the model. The development of the PjBLV model involved several stages, including conceptualization, theoretical framework, hypothesis formation, and final model development. Furthermore, a panel of seven learning model experts participated in a Focus Group Discussion (FGD) to assess the validity of the PjBLV model. The model is grounded in various theoretical frameworks such as those of Flemming, Lucas, Cruz, and Crespí. The PjBLV model consists of six phases: (1) posing an essential question, (2) designing a project plan, (3) learning through video blogs, (4) tracking student progress and project development, (5) assessing outcomes, and (6) evaluating the learning experience. The PjBLV model offers a promising new approach to practicum-based learning, with potential for positive implications.
