Penerapan Model Pembelajaran Project Based Learning untuk Meningkatkan Hasil Belajar Tari Saman pada Siswa Kelas XI SMA Mamiyai Al-Ittihadiyah Medan

This study aims to apply the Project Based Learning model to improve the learning outcomes of Saman Dance among class XI students of SMA Mamiyai Al-Ittihadiyah Medan, based on KD 3.1 “concepts, techniques, and procedures” in the 2013 curriculum. The sample was determined using the Purposive Sampling method through a quantitative descriptive approach, using a 20-question pretest-posttest given to 28 class XI IPA students, with observation, documentation, and literature study as data collection techniques. The study was conducted in 6 meetings to produce a presentation project analyzing Saman Dance. The pretest, given before the Project Based Learning model was used, had an average score of 41, while the posttest after its application had an average score of 86. The t-test shows that t-count = 27.192 > t-table = 1.703 (df = 27, α = 0.05), so Ho is rejected and Ha is accepted. Therefore, applying the Project Based Learning model improves Saman Dance learning outcomes among class XI students of SMA Mamiyai Al-Ittihadiyah Medan.
