Abstract
The Project-Based Learning (PBL) model is still rarely employed in teaching students to write recount texts, despite its significant potential to enhance students' writing skills. Therefore, this research focuses on enhancing students' recount text writing skills through the use of Project-Based Learning (PBL) models. It aims to assess how effectively the PBL models can improve students' ability to write a Recount Text for tenth-grade students at SMA Negeri 21 Bandung. This research employs a quantitative approach, utilizing a survey design. The data collection technique for this research employs a questionnaire, utilizing a five-point Likert scale, with descriptive statistics analysis. Based on the survey, the findings of this research indicate that using PBL models can effectively improve students' ability to write recount texts. The survey results showed an average score of 3.74, with 7.4% of respondents strongly agreeing, 61.1% agreeing, 29.6% neutral, and 1.9% disagreeing. Additionally, student perceptions indicate that this model facilitates learning, enhances motivation, and increases engagement. The survey revealed that students felt more motivated to write a Recount Text after participating in PBL. The data showed that 5.6% of respondents strongly agreed, 55.6% agreed, and 37.0% respondents were neutral. The study also found that PBL models involved students more in learning activities than other models, with an average score of 3.65. The implications of this research indicate that PBL enhances students' ability to write recount texts by engaging them in projects, offering constructive feedback, and promoting increased activity, motivation, and creativity.
