This study aims to analyze the implementation of project-based learning through the creation of clipping envelope(KLIPOP) of norms in the Pancasila Education subject, as well as to evaluate its impact on improving the learning outcomes of fifth-grade students at SDN Kutorejo 1 Tuban. The background of this research is the low student achievement in Pancasila Education, often caused by conventional, theoretical teaching methods that lack connection to students’ real-life experiences. The research method used is Classroom Action Research (CAR) with a descriptive quantitative approach. Data were collected through observation, interviews, documentation, and the results of pre-tests and post-tests. The findings show that project-based learning is effective in improving students’ learning outcomes. This is evidenced by the increase in the average test score from 74.8 (pre-test) to 91.3 (post-test). Students also demonstrated greater engagement, creativity, and collaboration in understanding the norms contained in Pancasila. By involving students in contextual activities, such as collecting information and creatively designing norm envelopes, learning becomes more meaningful and applicable. Therefore, this learning model can serve as a strategic alternative to enhance students’ understanding and academic performance in Pancasila Education at the elementary level.

An investigation was conducted at A State Senior High School in Kupang City, NTT.to assess how Project-Based Learning (PjBL) and Discovery Learning (DL) models differentially impact student learning activities and outcomes when teaching atomic structure. Adopting a quasi-experimental design with a nonequivalent control group, the study collected data through comprehensive activity questionnaires, observation sheets, and pretest/posttest instruments. The findings clearly showed that PjBL significantly boosted student learning activities, with an average score of 81.19, considerably higher than the 66.15 observed in the DL group. This significant difference was statistically confirmed by an independent samples t-test. Regarding learning outcomes, the PjBL group's average (70.97) was marginally better than the DL group's (68.89), but this difference did not reach statistical significance. It is suggested that limitations in learning time may have played a role in the learning outcomes. This study concludes that PjBL is superior for enhancing student engagement and activity, while both PjBL and DL are equally effective in improving student learning outcomes. Ultimately, the choice of a learning model should be strategically aligned with educational goals, subject matter, and the unique characteristics of the classroom to maximize student achievement.
