This online system depends on vital aspects such as well-structured, interactive, and substantive programs. Consequently, educators are challenged to be more frequently innovative and active in assessing and evaluating learning needs. Implementing a proper learning method helps to encourage students’ willingness to learn since they are the core of the learning process. Therefore, this research considered Problem-based Learning as a suitable learning method to implement and improve clinical skills. By learning from a problem, students are indirectly instructed to learn how to collect and integrate new knowledge.</p> <p><strong>Objectives:</strong> This study focuses on determining the implementation of Problem-Based Learning methods on the Leopold maneuver antenatal midwifery care subject in the diploma midwifery students.</p> <p><strong>Methods:</strong> This study uses a quasi-experimental design with a one group pretest-posttest design. The samples in this study are 30 students from Megarezky University. Data are analyzed by univariate and bivariate with chi-square test. This study uses a questionnaire to measure students’ interest and motivation in participating in learning in antenatal care courses, and to measure skills in performing the Leopold maneuver using a standardized checklist from the Antenatal Care Module of the Ministry of Health. This research is conducted within two months (December to January 2022).</p> <p><strong>Results:</strong> The result reveals that the Problem-Based Learning Method (PBL) effectively increases the score of students’ clinical skills with a <em>p</em>-value: 0.000 &lt; 0.05.</p> <p><strong>Conclusion:</strong> Problem-Based Learning Method (PBL) effectively improves the clinical skills of Leopold maneuver Antenatal care.</p&gt;}, number={2}, journal={Nurse and Health: Jurnal Keperawatan}, author={Prianti, Ani T and Jafar, Nurhaedar and Ahmad, Mardiana}, year={2022}, month={Dec.}, pages={287-293} }
