DEVELOPING A PROJECT-BASED LEARNING (PJBL)-BASED HEALTH PROMOTION LEARNING MATERIAL IN THE FACULTY OF MEDICINE UNIVERSITAS NEGERI GORONTALO

Abstract This study describes the design and development of a Project-Based Learning (PjBL)-based health promotion learning material to elevate student collaboration and participation. The type of the study was research and development using the ADDIE model. Data collection techniques included interviews, questionnaire distribution, and observation. Results indicated that the developed Project-Based Learning (PjBL)-based health promotion learning book was reliable according to experts’ validation of the content, media, and language aspects. The content aspect achieved a mean score of 95.23%, while the media and language mean scores were 99.09% and 81.10%, respectively. We tested the learning book’s effectiveness by comparing students’ pretest and posttest scores, which pointed out that the latter was higher. The sum of the posttest scores was 1,539, with a mean of 29.59, while that of the pretest scores was 1,117, with a mean of 21.48. As implied by the scores, students presented enhanced scores in the posttest. Additionally, the statistical test results showed an Asymp. Sig. of 0.000, which was smaller compared to α = 0.05. It brought about a conclusion that Ha was accepted and suggested a difference between students’ pretest and posttest scores after the use of the Project-Based Learning (PjBL)-based health promotion learning material. The learning material was thus effective in escalating students’ learning outcomes. Eventually, as the final product from analyzing the ADDIE model application and Project-Based Learning (PjBL) implementation, we created a new model, the SRI model, which stood from Situational Analysis (S), Research and Reflection (R), and the Implementation of Health Promotion Strategies (I).
