The results of the study indicate that PBL has a very positive impact on improving students' critical and analytical thinking abilities. More than 90% of respondents agreed that PBL helped them think deeply and analytically. Group discussions in PBL were also found to be effective in enhancing material comprehension, with most respondents feeling the benefits. PBL also made it easier for students to remember and apply the material by linking theory to practice.
