This article analyzes the influence of the Problem-Based Learning model on students’ social skills in Civics learning at elementary school level. The study used a quantitative quasi-experimental design involving an experimental class and a control class, each consisting of 25 students. Data were collected through social-skills pretest-posttest, motivation questionnaire, participation observation, and documentation of students’ assignment scores. The results showed that the experimental class increased from a mean pretest score of 59.89 to a posttest score of 79.33, with a mean gain of 19.44 and an N-Gain of 0.499. The control class increased from 59.10 to 66.10, with a mean gain of 7.00 and an N-Gain of 0.171. The posttest difference was significant (p < 0.05), indicating that Problem-Based Learning is effective in strengthening communication, cooperation, tolerance, responsibility, and respect in Civics learning.
