Abstract

Project-Based Learning (PjBL) is one of the learning models implemented in the Merdeka Curriculum. It is considered capable of improving students' activeness through a learning project. However, the implementation of PjBL in English learning at Pekalongan Senior High School has not been fully optimal because teachers still face various challenges and need strategies to overcome these challenges. Therefore, this study aims to identify various challenges and explore the strategies used by English teachers in implementing ProjectBased Learning (PjBL) at Pekalongan Senior High School. This study used a qualitative approach with a case study design. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and classroom observations, then analyzed using thematic analysis. The results showed that teachers face five main challenges, such as limited time allocation, overreliance on technology, difficulties in ensuring relevance of topics, complexity of assessment in PjBL, and challenges in planning student projects. Nevertheless, English teachers at the school have implemented five strategies to overcome these challenges. These strategies include managing time flexibility, guided technology integration, strengthening teachers’ collaboration, improving assessment management, and enhancing teacher professional development.
