Project-based learning. Student satisfaction INTRODUCTION The project-based learning model (Project-Based Learning or PBL) is used to enable students to understand and master concepts and skills through active participation in real-world tasks (Kong et al. , 2. In PBL, learning by students is done by working together to complete projects that reflect everyday challenges that students may encounter in the real world. Problem solving, developing critical thinking skills, communication, and collaboration are emphasized by this model (Maor et al. , 2. While carrying out a project, students are often given autonomy to identify problems, plan solutions, and present the results of student work. The aim of PBL is to connect learning with practical contexts and provide meaning to the material studied by students (Nurhikmayati & Sunendar, 2. PBL differs from traditional learning approaches which may focus more on conveying information to students. In contrast. PBL gives Vol. No. Juni 2024 https://journal. id/index. php/jatve/index students the possibility to experience an active learning process, solve problems, and apply knowledge in real-world situations, which can increase student understanding and prepare students to face real-world situations better (Almulla, 2. The 2D CAD (Computer-Aided Design 2D) course is a practical course that focuses on using CAD software to design and draw 2D and 3D engineering drawings (Fakhry et al. , 2. CAD courses are designed to provide students with practical skills in using CAD software, such as AutoCAD. Inventor. Solidwork and other design In the 2D CAD course, various techniques and tools in 2D CAD, as well as relevant engineering design principles will be taught to students. Practical courses such as 2D CAD usually involve a practicum or exercise component that allows the concepts taught to be applied in a real environment by students (Hugo et al. , 2. This includes creating engineering drawings, designing construction details, and understanding related industry standards. The aim of the CAD course is to prepare students with practical skills that can be applied in the industrial world, especially in the field of mechanical design engineering (Pranoto, 2. In this course, students learn to design and draw various objects and structures using 2D CAD software. The product results from 2D CAD courses in the context of machinery usually include various types of technical drawings used in machine design (Fakhry et al. , 2. This includes drawings such as detailed drawings of machine components, assembly drawings, and technical drawings that detail the specifications and dimensions of the components used in the Students who take mechanical CAD courses will gain skills in using CAD software to produce these drawings with high accuracy and precision. The product results from the CAD course serve as a guide for engineers and designers in the process of designing, assembling and maintaining machines, as well as ensuring that all machine components and elements comply with the specified specifications (Novitasari. Knowing student satisfaction with the learning model has great significance in the world of education (Frisdiantara & Graha, 2. Student satisfaction reflects the effectiveness of the learning approach used by educational institutions (Diez-Busto et , 2. It reflects the extent to which teaching methods and curricula accommodate student needs and preferences. The importance of knowing student satisfaction with the learning model can be summarized in several key points: First, student satisfaction creates a more positive and productive learning environment. Students who are satisfied with the student learning model tend to be more motivated, participate actively in class, and have a high enthusiasm for learning (Wahyuningtyas & Saputra, 2. has a positive impact on student learning outcomes. Second, student satisfaction can help identify problems and improve them (Hidayat et al. , 2. By collecting feedback from students, educational institutions can find out whether there are deficiencies in the learning model used. This helps in the process of improving the curriculum and teaching Vol. No. Juni 2024 https://journal. id/index. php/jatve/index methods, thereby improving the quality of education. Third, student satisfaction can influence a student's decision to continue their studies or leave an educational Understanding student satisfaction can have an impact on student retention and institutional development. Fourth, student satisfaction can also influence the image and reputation of educational institutions. Students who are satisfied tend to leave positive reviews and recommend the institution to potential students. This can increase the attractiveness of the institution and contribute to the growth and sustainability of the In the context of teaching 2D CAD courses, it is important to understand the extent to which the PBL approach influences student satisfaction levels. PBL emphasizes student involvement in projects, project understanding and learning, collaboration and communication as well as project benefits that require active participation and taking responsibility, but whether this approach also provides a satisfying learning experience for students in 2D CAD courses still needs to be The importance of this research is to provide better insight into the extent to which PBL is successfully implemented in 2D CAD courses and whether this approach increases the level of student satisfaction with student learning. By better understanding the impact of PBL on these courses, we can design more effective teaching methods and ensure that students not only develop strong technical skills, but also feel satisfied with the student learning experience. RESEARCH METHODS The research method used in this study is a quantitative descriptive approach (Sudaryana et al, 2. This approach was chosen because the research aims to describe and analyze data in detail, making it suitable for evaluating learning in CAD Research data was obtained using a questionnaire as the main instrument. The questionnaire was designed to collect student views and responses regarding student experiences in practical CAD courses. Participants in this research consisted of 53 students who were taking the 2D CAD Practice course in the 2022/2023 academic year. The selection of this sample size was based on adequate statistical considerations to produce representative results. The instrument grid in research on the level of student satisfaction with the Project-Based Learning (PBL) learning model in 2D CAD courses will reflect various aspects that are relevant to the student's learning experience. This instrument will consist of several statements designed to measure the level of student satisfaction with the key elements of the PBL model that students experience in the context of the 2D CAD course.
