This study aims to enhance the learning outcomes of grade X ATPH 2 students at SMK negeri 1 Gondang through the implementation of the Project-Based Learning (PjBL) model in the Agribusiness Food Crop and Horticulture subject, focusing on grafting material. This research employed a Classroom Action Research (CAR) method conducted in two cycles, starting from the pre-cycle to cycle I. the research involved 30 students and was conducted from February to April 2025. The instrument used was a cognitive test analyzed quantitatively to measure student learning outcomes. The results showed an increase in the average student score from 51.23 in the pre-cycle to 76.2 in cycle I. the percentage of learning mastery also significantly increased from 16% to 57%. The implementation of the Project-Based Learning (PjBl) model provided a concrete and comprehensible learning experience, enhancing student participation and motivation.

Learning Indonesian requires strong focus from students to achieve a deep understanding and good mastery of the material. One approach that can increase students' focus is by implementing the Active, Innovative, Creative, Effective and Fun Learning Model (PAIKEM). This model emphasizes active interaction between teachers and students, the use of innovative methods, and a creative and fun learning atmosphere. This research emphasizes how the use of the PAIKEM Model can stimulate students' active participation, increase involvement in the learning process, and strengthen understanding and use of Indonesian. Therefore, it is hoped that this research can be an effective means of increasing students' focus in learning Indonesian, paving the way for achieving better and more sustainable learning outcomes.
