This research aims to describe the learning model used in the ongoing implementation of PAK. To demonstrate the roles of teachers and students in PAK learning using the project-based learning model. To implement the Project Based Learning model in the Catholic Religious Education subject at SMAN 1, 2, and 4 Palangka Raya. The method used in this research is qualitative descriptive research with data collection through observation, interviews, and documentation. The data analysis follows Miles and Hubermans three stages: Data Reduction, Data Display, and Conclusion Drawing. The participants in this study are seven individuals, including four Catholic religion teachers and three Catholic students. The research was conducted in June and July at SMAN 1, 2, and 4 Palangka Raya, Palangka Raya City. This research concludes that Catholic Religious Education (PAK) teachers at SMAN 1, 2, and 4 Palangka Raya have implemented the project-based learning model, and the student informants have applied the PJBL model throughout their learning process at their respective schools. The collaboration between teachers and students in implementing the PJBL model fosters good communication and teamwork. These efforts help students develop a positive attitude toward their teachers and vice versa. Implementing the PJBL model provides a positive overview for students in Palangka Raya in the Catholic Religious Education subject, incorporating PJBL steps that aid critical thinking and nurture creativity. The attitude integrates technology, resulting in engaging materials such as graphic designs like posters, PPTs, and instructional videos.

Project-based learning encourages students to develop collaboration, communication, problem solving, critical, and creativity skills. This model is widely used at the level of educational units such as junior secondary education and upper secondary education and even higher education. The aim of this research is to capture the research landscape related to Project-Based Learning in high school. The method used is bibliometric analysis. The data is obtained from the enhanced Scopus database. The results showed that the number of publications related to Project-Based Learning in high school increased every year from 2017 to 2022. The highest number of documents were in Indonesia and the United States, the highest number of documents were in institutions or universities in Indonesia. The research focuses are 1) Problem-Based Learning and Student; 2) Project-Based Learning, e-learning and STEM; 3) high school and inquiry based discovery learning.

:  Limitations in komputer network practicum, causing only relying on theory and tests. During the pre-test, there were 8 students whose learning outcomes had not been completed. This study aims to improve student learning outcomes using project-based learning models. The object of this research is students in the 4th semester of komputer education, FKIP, Universitas Mulawarman. The software used in making the project is a Cisco packet tracer with a choice of komputer network projects. The type of research used is classroom action research in the form of projects and tests to get maximum learning outcomes. Learning outcomes are obtained from a combination of project scores and tests from cycle I and cycle II. Based on the research results in cycle I and cycle II, it can be concluded that there is an increase in student learning outcomes through the application of project-based learning. Suggestions for research need to examine other variables such as creativity and learning activities because project-based learning requires a lot of observation of group work in monitoring. in the classroom

This study examines the effectiveness of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) education in enhancing problem-solving skills among high school students. With the increasing demand for critical thinking and problem-solving abilities in the workforce, STEM education has become a crucial approach to preparing students for future challenges. The study aims to evaluate how project-based STEM curricula impact students' creativity, analytical skills, and overall problem-solving capabilities. Using a quasi-experimental design with a control group, the research was conducted with high school students who participated in STEM-based lessons involving the 5E instructional model. Data collection involved pre- and post-tests, classroom observations, and semi-structured interviews to measure changes in student skills. The findings indicate that students exposed to STEM education demonstrated significant improvements in problem-solving, creativity, and analytical thinking compared to their peers in traditional lecture-based classes. The study highlights the advantages of project-based learning in promoting active student engagement and fostering skills necessary for addressing real-world problems. These results suggest that STEM education can be more effective than traditional methods in cultivating essential 21st-century skills. The study recommends the broader implementation of STEM strategies in secondary education and further exploration of the long-term impact of STEM learning on various skills required in the professional world.
