| dc.description | Problem-Based Learning (PBL) is a teaching approach in which real situations are used as the mean to stimulate the development of critical thinking skills, communication skills and problem solving abilities among students. In Malaysia, the 21st century learning (PAK21) that was formulated in the second wave of Malaysia Education Blueprint 2013 to 2025 requires that all teachers should embrace the teaching and learning approach to ensure the students are equipped with the correct skills and values for the future. This study aims to investigate the differences between problem-based learning approaches and traditional learning method in learning geometry among secondary school students in Padawan. Besides that, the perception of acceptance on the approach towards students’ performance was also measured. The use of quantitative research method is to make sure that the outcome of the research can be clearly shown through objective data. The study involved sixty (60) Form Four student of Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Padawan. The data was obtained using the survey questionnaire that explored students’ acceptance on the approach that was used during the intervention lesson. Pre and post test was conducted to measure the students’ performance. The data obtained were analysed using inferential statistical software packages for Social Science Version 21.0 (SPSS). The findings from this research revealed that there was an increased in the students’ achievement in learning geometry using PBL approach. This investigation has shed some insights regarding the implementation of PBL in school and other setting. Apart from that, it also enlightened the aspects that can be further improved or as a value-added to enhance learners’ outcomes. | |
