Abstract

The purpose of this study was to see the effect of using modules with integrated Project Based Learning models to improve the learning outcomes of social science class IV SDIT Adzkia Bukittinggi. The research design used in this study was pre-test and post-test one group design. The population of this study were fourth grade students of SDIT Adzkia Bukittinggi. Sampling using Simple Random Sampling technique and obtained 21 students of class IV Banin as samples. Data were analyzed by parametric statistical analysis. with steps: mean score and standard deviation, normality test and z test. The results of the research conducted, the average Post-test score of 75.45 with a percentage of completion of 71.88% and the calculation of the Z test obtained Zcount> Ztable (2.29> 1.64) then Ho is rejected and Ha is accepted. It is concluded that the social studies learning outcomes of students using integrated modules project-based learning model in class IV SDIT Adzkia Bukittinggi significantly completed.
