Abstract

The purpose of this study is to determine differences in student's learning achievement consisting of learning outcomes and science process skills. This research was conducted in a special school for girls and used two experimental classes, namely experimental class-1 and experimental-2 class. The experimental class-1 is the class applied by PjBL with a brain-based STEAM approach, while the experimental class-2 is a class that uses PjBL with the STEAM approach without brain-based. This research is a quasi-experimental study with a nonequivalent pretest-posttest control group design. The data analysis technique used is the T-test. The brain-based learning activities applied in this study are listening to music, drinking water, doing a brain gym, working on crossword puzzles, and group determination based on the dominance of students' brains. The results showed that the average value of the N-Gain score of student learning outcomes in the experimental class-1 was 80,72. Student learning outcomes experimental class-2 is 73,12. In science process skills, the experimental class-1 students had an average N-Gain score of 72,50, while the experimental-2 class was 60,88. The conclusion is the experimental class 1 students have higher learning achievement than students in the experimental class 2.
