PBLBA as The Habituation Of Academic Cultures in The Student’s Learning Environment

The objective of this study was to describe Problem Based Learning Model Based on Academic Culture (PBLBA) as the spirit of learning as the academic culture for the students in the class. The research method was the literature study by collecting a number of books, papers, journals, leaflets and magazines that deal with the problems of the Problem Based Learning model based on academic cultures by Geert Hofstede. The data were collected by identifying books, papers or articles obtained. The data analysis used descriptive analysis, content analysis and critical analysis. The results of the study describe that the Problem Based Learning model whose syntax is modified with the basis of academic cultures from Geert Hofstede creates academic learning by habituating academic culture in each learning process. The habituation of academic cultures was realized by giving the students the problems to be studied together with their group friends without any awkwardness. Academic cultures also teach learning that is not teacher-centred. The main role of the students is to be actively invloved in classroom learning activities. The student is considered as someone who is able to have courage in arguing without coercion. There is no gap in terms of differences in sex of male or female students. Both have the same and fair role in the learning process in the classroom. The students have the role in the learning process with one to another responsibly.
