Project Base Learning with Science Club on Car Free Day to Improve Science Literacy ofFourth Semester Elementary School Teacher Education Students in the Academic Year of 2018/2019

This research is aims to findings that science learning in Elementary School Teacher Education (PGSD) students for lack of involvement and motivation of students in learning process so that it affects students' scientific literacy skills. Furthermore, to overcome these problems learning is done by using the Project Base Learning model with the Science Club on Car Free Day. This study aims to analyze the effect of the project based on learning model in student literacy skills by science learning courses. This research used quasi experiment method with the research design Nonequivalent Control Group Design. The sampling in this study was the fourth semester student of PGSD Muhammadiyah University Purworejo. The sampling technique is done by cluster random sampling technique. The results show in the scientific literacy abilities of students using the project base learning model produced an average score of 52.97 pretest, 79.03 posttest and 56% N-Gain. While, the class that uses the method as usual produces an average value of 62.91 pretest, posttest 75.39 and N-Gain 27%. Based on the results of the main analysis of N-Gain, Z count (5.63) ≥ Z table (1.65) with 𝛼 of 0.05 (5%), then H0 is rejected and Ha is accepted. This shows that the project base learning model has a significant effect on students' scientific literacy abilities.
