Efforts to improve students' personality learning outcomes using small ball learning through Project 5-based pétanque

Abstract

This study examined the effectiveness of P5-based Petanque learning in enhancing students’ personality through physical education. Using two-cycle classroom action research with 11th-grade students at SMA Negeri 1 Karangtengah, Cianjur, data were collected through observation, questionnaires, and documentation, then analyzed descriptively and quantitatively. Results showed notable improvements in personality, activity, and learning outcomes, with all students meeting competency standards in the second cycle. Of the 44 students, 36 (82%) exceeded the minimum passing grade of 75, meaning no students fell below the passing grade. The lowest recorded score was 61, while the highest was 90. The total score for the class reached 3,380 with an average of 77. Compared to Cycle I where only 36 students (82%) achieved a passing grade with an average score of 77, Cycle II showed a significant improvement. The number of students who achieved proficiency increased to 36 students (82%), indicating an 82% increase in proficiency, accompanied by an increase in the class average score of 77 pointsThe study concludes that integrating Petanque with the P5 approach effectively strengthens character and supports meaningful, holistic physical education learning.
