Abstract

The community service program aims to enhance both knowledge and skill to implement project-based learning (PjBL) in learning activities. This training has attended 112 teachers who are members of the subject teacher council (MGMP) office management and business services (MPLB). The activity was divided into offline and online activities, including in-class workshops and online assistance with planning, practicing, and evaluating projects.  During in-class workshop, the teacher was very enthusiastic and active to share their experience and challenges to implement PjBL, especially creating relevant projects. The teacher also provides the positive feedback through the questionnaire that indicates this training can improve their competency. Moreover, other activities such as online assistance also help the teacher to write a draft for implementing the PjBL in the module. Finally, this community service program enhances teachers’ ability to implement PjBL as an innovative learning method that may improve the quality of education that is in line with Sustainable Development Goals.
