ABSTRACT
Cross Cultural Understanding (CCU) is one of the subjects that must be learned by English department students. It is needed because when students learn English, they need to be familiar with cultures of English speaking countries. CCU is taught basically for making them ease to improve understanding about cultures. In giving experience to the students, one of teaching models which is appropriate to CCU class is Project Based Learning (PBL). The research problem of this study were: (1) What materials are developed by the lecturer in the implementation of Project-based Learning in CCU class at third year English Department students of University of Nusantara PGRI Kediri academic year 2015/2016? (2) What products are produced by the students in the implementation of Project-based Learning in CCU class at third year English Department students of University of Nusantara PGRI Kediri academic year 2015/2016? (3) What are the steps of the implementation of Project-based Learning in CCU class at third year English Department students of University of Nusantara PGRI Kediri academic year 2015/2016? (4) What are the lecturer’s roles during the implementation of Project-based Learning in CCU class at third year English Department students of the University of Nusantara PGRI Kediri academic year 2015/2016?. This research used qualitative research design of case study. The instruments used to collect the data were observation, interview, and document. Observation used by the researcher to get the data during the implementation. Then, interview and documentation are used only to strengthen and support the data. The research was done in four meetings.By analysing the data, it can be concluded that PBL could help the lecturer to vary the activities along with the topic, each step of PBL gives an opportunity to the students to engage with real problems, the model of PBL could support and motivate the students to be more active and creative, and with PBL, the lecturer is not be much in handling the students because they will be much active and more dominant in the class to find information.Based on the conclusion result of the research, the researcher suggests a clear instruction during implementing the project activity. It makes the students easy to understand to what the will do and master the target learning.. Then, the researcher hoped that there will be other researchers who can conduct the better research by investigating the other kinds of lecture which can be applied with Project Based Learning.
