The experimental class was given treatment research-based learning, while the control class was given conventional learning. Then both classes were given a posttest to find out the learning outcomes. Analysis of research data using independent sample T-Test. The effectiveness of the application of Research-Based Learning can be seen by comparing the average final work of experimental and control class students.
