Main Article Content
Abstract
The 2017 Batch of the Economics Study Program in STKIP PGRI Jombang shows low motivation in entrepreneurship subject as seen from the students’ low achievement. This study aimed to examine the different learning motivation students had on the post-test and explain the different gains on learning motivation between students taught using Information Technology-Based Problem Based Learning (IT-based PBL) and Project Based Learning (PjBL). The study was quantitative using a quasi-experiment method. The design was a non-equivalent group pre-test and post-test. The independent variables were IT-based PBL and PjBL, while the dependent variable was student motivation. Data were analyzed using an independent sample t-test. Findings confirmed differences in student motivation taught using IT-Based PBL and PjBL and different gains on learning motivation between the two groups. Thus, the following conclusions are presented. (1) There was different learning motivation on the post-test between the two groups taught using IT-Based PBL and PjBL. (2) There were different gains on learning motivation between the two groups taught using IT-Based PBL and PjBL. The suggestion is to implement IT-based PBL and PjBL by considering the teaching material suitability, the facilities and infrastructure, and the time allocation..
