Abstract

Maker-Centered Project Based Learning is one of the developed learning models that emphasize the concept of stimulation to develop students' creativity, productivity, and innovation. This learning model is suitable because it has a positive simulation value to encourage students to solve real-life problems. Therefore, this research focuses on examining the application of the Maker-Centered Project-Based Learning Model in student lecture activities to improve graphic design skills and student learning activities. This research uses a quasi-experimental method with a Posttest-only Control technique through a quantitative approach. A total of 68 students were involved in this research, with 34 students for each control class experimental class. The sampling technique used in this research is cluster random sampling. Student project assessment sheets consisting of 2 aspects, namely graphic design skills and Student Learning Activities, were used to collect data. The results showed that students' graphic design skills and active learning increased significantly after applying the Maker-Centered Project-Based Learning Model with a 95% confidence level. In its application, the Maker-Centered Project-Based Learning model can give real meaning to life for students. Realizing the goals of human life requires an active role from oneself, which is supported by the role of other individuals from outside oneself. In addition, the application of maker-centered project-based learning on the creator can significantly increase student learning activity. © 2022 Sumantri et al.
